Interesting, I am certain that our combined efforts will deal with the demigod problem with ease. The Guardian however... Casimir and I have some experience with beings capable of such a feat, but we are not arrogant enough to deny they are worthy and dangerous adversaries.

Drevenon and Casimir would have like to get more information out of Thasseldar, but their meeting was cut short by the roars of large monsters marking the beginning of the sea creatures true onslaught. One of the monster's heads loomed over the buildings, appearing as a giant whale that... was soon getting attacked by a giant ass chicken. What. The. Hell.

"Well that's new..."

Casimir saw a new battalion of sea creatures march in their direction. These were different from the aberrations he had killed earlier as they appeared to be tougher, larger, and equipped with much better armor and weaponry. Some of them even seemed to have special powers of their own, evidenced by their attempts at intimidation by knocking aside objects without touching them and firing beams of unknown energies from their hands. And to top things off, these guys were backed up by their very own sea serpent!

"Oh yeah," Casimir said with a grin as dark energy and black ooze engulfed him. "This just got interesting!"

Abaddon once more, he ascended into the air as he prepared for another round of EXTREME!!! fishing.

"Which do you want to deal with? The troops or their pet?" He asked Thasseldar.

Not waiting for a response (as per usual), Abaddon swung one of his arms out forward, releasing a row of red bolts to blast the frontline with.

I'll have a post up later today. Also, no problem wiz :)!

My input:

Nerf the Absolute Eye ability. It's more balanced and makes more sense for Shiro to see what's around him, and only him individually, in 360 degrees. Being able to see 360 degrees everwhere on the planet is too much imo.

Introduce the limitation of a cool down time for his teleporting. This time should be dependent of the distance traveled. Teleporting short distances, like in Shiro's fight on the rooftop with Abaddon, would have little to no cool down time. Larger jumps, like the one you described where he teleports from one part of the world to the other, should obviously have a significantly longer cool down time and possibly some physical draw back.

Nerf his portal creation ability. Sure making portals around you like you do in Portal is fine, but being able to spawn any number of portals anywhere in the world is, again, too much. (lol take a shot every time I say portal)

Nerf Shiro's Tankshell Attack. Just make it avoidable, and it should also only be able to be projected from Shiro's person and again, not from anywhere on the planet to another spot on the planet.

"Any weapon or armor used by your character is pointless." I'm guessing this ties in with him being able to teleport said weapons and armor away. Makes more sense for the weapons than for armor being worn. I don't really have any suggestions for this as it's honestly a logical extension of Shiro's power, just be careful how and when you use it since it can easily step into godmodding.

I think that the main problem with all of these is their potential to be used in an omnipresent fashion. Take this out of the mix and you should have an easier time balancing Shiro out.

Thasseldar saw Abaddon come down and was mostly glad. Although Abaddon's means he found questionable and sometimes overreactive, he made a good friend and a valuable asset in some of his other missions. He could only hope it would be enough.]

"In other words, business as usual?" Thasseldar gave a hint of a smile.

His observations disturbed him. The realm was not simply out of bounds in a way that would be temporary; nearly every realm had a period where things would be a little chaotic temporarily. This was more... sinister. A deliberate twisting of how things were supposed to work. A twisting that had resulted in more things happening than there should be at the moment. He had felt this before; but he just couldn't pinpoint it.

"Mostly," Casimir said with a grin. "The sniper was spared from death at the last second by some chick. Maybe you know one of them. She was... bright. Literally, and wore specialized armor and is pretty good with a blade of light. The sniper is a teleporter and is one of the few that can use their powers to see in all directions."

Drevenon observed the dimensional fields of Earth as the two spoke, taking notice of the obvious distortions within the realm. These weren't after effects of their entry into Earth, but were anomalies being caused directly by something else. The entity thought it was time they be informed of what was going on.

Tell us Realmswalker, he said, What has been occurring within this plane that you deemed it necessary to call us here. We doubt that the sea aberrations were of much importance, and I have detected several dimensional anomalies while you two were speaking.

Loyal to the end!!!
The fish person's battle cry caused the group Abaddon was threatening to rush forward with their weapons. It was honestly a VERY stupid move on their part considering they were charging straight into his sharp tendrils. Abaddon reacted by whipping the newly formed blades out violently, dismembering some and stabbing others until this group of sea monsters lay in pieces as well.

"Wow! Just wow, that was completely uncalled for. They could have at least TRIED to die nobly, maybe they could have shot us first and then attacked. Guess they were just that eager to die."

By now, the ranks of the sea creatures had been greatly reduced to few but formidable pockets by the efforts of the metahumans (and some skilled troops). Abaddon had enjoyed the carnage, knowing that there would be more of these things to deal with later down the line. Who knew, maybe he would even catch the attention of fishies' king and get to eat him too! He stopped to observe the other creatures get gunned down or sliced up by Linia's blade, but Abaddon's attention soon turned elsewhere as he sensed a powerful and familiar presence nearby.

@ArenaSnow
Ah, so he's finally decided to show himself. Come, it is time we speak with the Realmswalker on what needs to be dealt with in this plane.

With the other metas busy picking off the other creatures, Abaddon took the opportunity to slip away undetected. He traced Thasseldar's aura of power to a nearby hotel blocks away from the battle zone and found him standing outside. The Realmswalker was obviously scanning the dimensional fields for something, most likely to see if he could pinpoint what had caused the disturbances.

"Hello Thasseldar," Abaddon said as he dropped down in front of him. He reverted to his human form for the sake of other civilians that were likely around. He didn't need or want them fleeing in terror... and he especially didn't feel like getting shot to pieces again.

"Got held up fighting some random sniper, then had to help out in a battle against... Atlanteans? Experiments gone wrong? The vengeful, evolved forms of pet fish that got flushed down toilets? I don't know."

"That... has probably got to be the most ironic way to prove such a thing," Abaddon chuckled while shaking his head. Least she wasn't asking him to do something completely absurd; this was a request he could and would gladly carry out. Abaddon followed Linia, and though he could have easily flown in the direction she was headed towards, he opted to travel by rooftops for his own amusement. It felt good to be back in human cities again.

Abaddon soon came to the spot where the fish people were attacking. Bodies of law enforcement officers and destroyed vehicles littered the ground, and more were being added to their numbers with each passing minute. There were also some civilians caught in the battle, but thankfully very little. In fact, it seemed that there were no civilians running around in the streets at all, something which was always the case in surprise monster attacks.

"Looks like they evacuated prior to this, meaning these attacks have been an ongoing thing for this city. Okay..."

Abaddon looked down to see Linia expertly slicing monster after monster with her sword. Her skills might have been impressive, but unfortunately for her the sheer number of sea creatures advancing on her would be enough to overwhelm. Abaddon dove off the building and flew directly above her, screeching loudly to distract the fish men as his tendrils coursed with magic and fired off red bolts. The supernatural lightning arced its way through multiple creatures, leaving large and sizzling holes in their bodies. With several of them dead, Linia now had some breathing room and could continue to attack the rest of her enemies with confidence.

Of course, there were plenty more of these sea aberrations left to deal with, but Abaddon would slaughter them all with ease. A phalanx charged towards him, and Abaddon waited for them to get closer to butcher them all in random sequence. Once they were at a certain distance, Abaddon shot multiple shadowy tendrils from his body and impaled the formations forerunners. They slithered through their numbers, piercing through their bodies with ease until all of the unfortunate fishies suffered where they stood.

"Anybody want some sushi?"

The tendrils morphed, becoming wide, serrated blades that butchered the poor creatures on the spot. Gore remained on some of the tendrils as they returned to Abaddon, and he nonchalantly picked sizable chunks of these off to eat as he headed for another team of the aquatic soldiers.

Sheol's waters are in need of more diverse specimens! Drevenon yelled as Abaddon held the leader of one of the groups up by the neck. Surrender to us now and you and your lot shall all avoid a painful demise!

Abaddon "waited" for this particular group to give some sign of compliance. They wouldn't have long though, and he made this clear by sending more tendrils to slowly slither their way...

@Cuccoruler Hey, just wanted to let you know that I need you to respond to my latest post ^^'. I can't move on to Arena's character until I wrap things up here!

Abaddon listened to the small exchange between the two, then watched attentively as Shiro ported himself to a further area to perform an odd series of movements with his powers. He could also smell a new scent in the air, something... fishy. Literally. Coming from the other side of where he was, he figured that this was due to either the appearance of multiple sea-based creatures, or one giant ass sea creature. Was there some sort of deep sea invasion happening in Davenport? Was this why Thasseldar had called him back to Earth's realm? He'd find out, but first he needed to ease the suspicions of the girl before him, and perhaps further mollify Shiro by showing he was of no threat (at least not in the way he thought). Afterall, Shiro's words somewhat implied that he was fighting Abaddon to simply contain what he perceived to be a threat to the safety of the city. Nothing too new really, it happened a lot back when Casimir first emerged as Abaddon.

Worry not, girl, Drevenon began, The realm of Earth is the original home of my host.

"He's right. We haven't come to enslave 'all you pitiful mortals'," Abaddon joked. "You might've heard of me before, my name in this form is Abaddon. I've come here in response to a summons from an ally. According to him, there's been major trouble brewing in Davenport."

Crap, Cucco posted her thing as I was still writing mine. Will edit soon.

Both of his attacks had missed, and Abaddon quickly discovered that this metahuman's power was rapid teleportation. Wonderful! Looks like this battle wasn't ending as soon as he had hoped, so his meeting with Thasseldar would have to wait. Shiro had quickly spawned two automatic weapons and began firing away, much to Abadddon's annoyance and minor amusement. Seriously, if a shot to the head from that rifle hadn't worked, did Shiro honestly expect those of lesser weapons to do so? Deciding to humor him, he allowed the initial barrage of bullets to hit their mark, but to no obvious effect. Some passed through him, while others seemed to just melt into his body.

"Silver," Abaddon chuckled as he held out said bullets towards Shiro, "Do I look like a werewolf to you?!"

Tossing them aside, Abaddon began his retaliation by dodging and deflecting the following barrages with magic. He also started to fire lone orbs of darkness towards his foe, doing so in a way that made it seem he was just hoping to eventually hit him. There was a strategy behind the wild shots though: Abaddon was attempting to discover a pattern in Shiro's portings as well as any other latent abilities being used in his fighting style. It worked.

Shiro would mainly appear at angles that would exploit the "blind spot" such as directly or diagonally behind him, or even right above him to avoid being hit on the ground. Abaddon also took notice of his glowing eyes and linked them to Shiro's apparent sense of premonition. Having fought teleporters in the past, he decided Shiro belonged to the rare bunch of those able to see in all directions.

"Hmph, two can play at that game," he thought. Focusing his senses, Abaddon began to better predict and avoid future attacks. With Drevenon's vision, he would also be able to see in multiple directions, as well as take notice of any developing distortions in the energy spaces around him. These would be the perfect indicator to where Shiro would reappear!

A few more evasions and deflections, and Abaddon moved in for his more coordinated strikes. As the space on his right began to distort, Abaddon whipped himself in its direction and in one lightning fast movement-

A flash of light appeared in between him and his foe. Abaddon sprang backwards, landing on all fours and on guard. Was this his foe's backup? Now he was just getting pissed and was on the verge of just exposing the entire area to a much stronger variant of the Devourer's Wrath (which would essentially draw everything save for Abaddon towards itself to obliterate them in a chaotic vortex).

"You're more intelligent than the average demon," the glowing girl had said to him before turning to Shiro. She was holding both of them back, so perhaps she wasn't the teleporter's backup. A friend perhaps...

"Do you know this metahuman?" He asked her.
