I just finished the new Majora's Mask game. I collected all the masks too. I was curious so I looked at the Activity Log and it said I finished the game in almost exactly 30 hours at almost 5 hours per times played. Whew.
good god.
Posted. tell me what you think and how you feel: happy? outraged? gunna hit me with a hammer?
(Catch me if I counted wrong. I count only 1 of your posts in between my own, posting a second time will decrease the likely hood of successful attacks. IE your second post may go to waste.)
~~~Pallus~~~ Three cannonballs rushed at me, Quickly I used Telekinesis to hurl the cannonballs back at the creature, hitting it in the upper end of it's body. Almost just as the rocks connected, The Mask began to scream of some threat. "BAD MAN! BAD MAN!" The voice screamed in my ears, or rather, in my mind. Somebody or something was more concerning to The Mask then the monster. The thought of that made my skin crawl and my concentration drop, causing me to drop a foot. then to make up for that I began to fling any nearby rocks or cannonballs at the beast's body, The Mask's anxiousness, and slight fear, dripping into me.
~~~Minadi~~~ Ulu and I had rushed back to the monster and Viv came up to us and apologized for ignoring me. I caught sight of the cut Pallus had landed on the beast. Realizing the body was weaker, I shot a few fireballs at it, trying my hardest to avoid the cut as not to cauterize the wound.
Two of the three cannon balls were 'telekinetically' countered, smacking the creature's forehead, leaving a big lump on the Octoroaka between the squinted eyes. That attack pulled the monster's attention back to the Zora for a second. Barely able to think, it concluded that there were far too many enemies. With only itself in the fight that made it really hard t get anything done! It had to do something new!
Leaning back, the Octoroaka's cannon snout pointed upward, red balls of light were drawn into the cannon snout. The red color swirled inside visibly glowing and pulsing like a quasar. Then it tilted forward again, showing off the glowing glob of condensed energy.
Then when Minadi managed to land two fire spells on the creature (minus 2 magic) the Octoroaka lost concentration. So the energy in its mouth unleashed haphazardly, shooting a large fireball into the water and breaking line of sight with the people on the beach. Still being able to see the Octo, Pallus could observe its current status: beat up on the head, bearing a cut on the body, and burned its right cheek.
The Zora's attempt to collect any new ammunition instead turned out with an unexpected outcome. (As explained below)
Rida noticed the cut herself and a somewhat sadistic look came on her face. Rida pointed towards the cut, her swarm of cuccos knew what to do. They started to try and fly into the cut in order to damage and kill it from the inside. While Rida was young she was a rather good strategist, she had to be since she was commanding quite a few Cuccos to attack.
Cia meanwhile was pulling citizens and others out of hte way of the fight inorder to prevent any casualties. Cia had seen the canon balls and quickly got near one that was cut inhalf. She got into a stance that would allow her to move such a heavy cannonball. Cia connected one hookshot to the cannonball and then with quite a bit of strength she was able to fling it at the creature. Though this strained her body quite a bit.
(ha! Posted from Ipad!)
A swarm of cuccos leaped and flapped across the water. Nearing one fourth of the distance the Octo's misfire cause an explosion of water to surge from underneath their flock. This resulted in only half of the cuccos managing to pass through. The wet ones dismissed themselves due to wet feathers so that they wouldn't fall into the water below.
But even the remaining flock couldn't cover the distance, except for one daring cucco, the one always at Rida's side. It landed on Pallus's head, determining it the best resting point between gaps. Giving itself a moment on Pallus's scaly head, it breathed in deep breaths.
The Octoroaka turned to look beyond the falling veil of water, seeing another strange one and then the rest of the little people.
Angered by their attacks it tried again. Red energy glowed from inside the cannon snout. Aiming to the beach it was ready for the next projectile attack to come, bound and determined to level the playing field.
Cia back on the beach couldn't manage to launch half of the cannon ball very well. So instead of getting it all the way over it got caught and assisted by someone else. (As explained below)
As everyone could see the now re-glowing snout Viv reacted by standing still and trying to think of a plan. But he was bad at planning so all he could do was ready himself for an opening. But a monster that far out into the water wasn't gunna be an easy target. Even by using the breeze he could only hope for three fourth the distance. Smirking he looked around, waiting for an opportunity with his bow raised.
The mask tried to tell Araris something was off, but he wasn't listening. He was completely wrapped up in the battle. As Araris ran forward, he swung his sword in front of him. To anyone else it looked like he was slashing at nothing, but every time he swung his sword it shot a wave of energy. He set half a dozen flying at the thing's ugly snout. Then, when he was close enough, he jumped. He jumped high enough to be above another person, who was apparently hovering in the air. The mask's increased its efforts to tell him something, but he still didn't listen. Sorry about this. he thought briefly. He used the floating man as a stepstool, Araris put his foot on the man's head and jumped off of him, getting even higher. He angled his jump so that he landed on the top of the Octoroca's head. He got to his feet, reared up, and with a shout, plunged his great sword strait down into its skull and held on tight.
Managing only to get 1 wave of energy to stabilize (minus 1 magic), Araris's magical ability seemed much weaker than the Mask was allowing. He'd need to learn to channel more of the mask's power before such a feat would allow much more of that magic. But the power of the Mask was giving him enough speed to preform a feat. The wave sliced into the snout of the Octoroaka, destabilizing the creature's attack but not dissipating it. Retrying to bring the energy together the Octo's body rumbled. The long orange body waved around, and the energy in the snout grew bigger and brighter until it shrank to a small ball.
Getting a good run was the key to allowing him to jump from the beach to Pallus. However, instead of landing on the floating Zora as planned, he was snatched by the attempt to gather cannon balls.
~~~Pallus~~~ @Crimson Raven Something pressed on my head and the mask began to go crazy, screaming, "KILL HIM! KILL HIM!" reacting on instinct, I slashed upward barely missing the man who had jumped off of me. Still angered at being used as a stepstool, I used telekinesis to loosen his sword from the monster's skull. Following up on that I hurled another cannonball at just below the creature's head, hoping to knock the man off. The mask was pleased with my actions as it began to calm a bit. "What the hell do you think you're doing?!?!" I roared a the man through telepathy.
(Instead of letting Araris jump on you, I let a Crazy Cucco. So you grabbed mr insane long jump. Please don't get too angry; I thought about it and just couldn't let Araris jump twice in a single turn even at crazy fast speed since the distance is preeeeetty big. You both are on the OP spectrum.)
Throwing the Masked on with Telekinesis, the Zora managed to assist the crazy warrior. Unfortunately when the Zora tried to talk to him, the Mask couldn't project the thoughts and words. Pallus's mask seemed incapable to preforming telepathy on the masked stranger.
Flying at the enemy the masked Hylian had his great sword aimed for the creature's skull, so far everything was perfectly aligning for his suicidal tactic. The big red bruise on the Octo's face was a clear target. But the creature could see Araris coming, adjusting its position, the warrior only managed to catch himself on the cannon snout! But because he couldn't react in mid air, Araris lost his sword. The big weapon into the deep part of the Octoroaka, slicing on its way down and causing further bleeding.
Seeing the red ball of light close up, he could feel the power and heat of the fireball about to be unleashed. If he dared get closer then he might as well be on fire.
~~~~Ulu~~~~ After watching the man impale the head of the monster, I found the weak spot were Pallus had made is cut. The monster was thrashing about and in order for us to make any damage we need to get it under control. Then I looked at the water it was in and had an idea.
@Ryuzaki@SiliconColt@Cuccoruler "Minadi, Viv, Rida, we need to get that thing still, I am going to freeze the water while you three focus on that weak spot ok. Hit it hard and fast and punch a ole in that monster.This should also give our friend a chance to do some more damage." I said with a grin.
Right after saying this I froze the water. Hopefully that would help with the mobility of the creature and give Pallus a chance to strike. ________________________________________________________________________________________________
^^^^Rai^^^^ I flew as fast as I could to the docks. The villagers were heading to the club and away from danger. When I got closer I could see the giant Octoroaka. I have never faced a creature like this before and don't know how to help with the situation. I could see Cia helping civilians, she is so cool. Wait I can fly maybe I should go and help. I flew down and helped any more villagers by flying them out.
@Cuccoruler Then another shower of cannonballs came from the monster.I saw Cia use he hook shots to grab one and piece of a cannonball and throw it. I used the Gale Boomerang to fling one straight at the monster.
The boomerang flew across the air in a great wind. Passing around the half piece, it leeched to it then the combo flew around in a quick twirl until it reached as far as Pallus. The Zora's Telekinesis managed to catch the half cannon ball but not the boomerang which flew all the way back to Rai.
Viv heard Ulu then saw Ulu prepare magic. Viv had a brilliant idea. With his bow readied he waited for the right moment. When Ulu focused his magic and aimed for the octo, Viv let out an arrow, hitting the magic ice like a target. With the magic around the arrow it flew across the water, landing a great distance further away than it would have fallen.
Viv's arrow hit the water at an angle, causing the magic to instead unleash in a cone shape rather than a big spill. Thankfully Ulu gave it a lot of power (-3 magic) resulting in the freezing of a massive volume of water around the Octo. An iceberg formed around it, preventing it from moving and wriggling around.
"Ulu! That was awesome!" Viv shouted to the Twili, unknowingly thwarting whatever the Twili had planned.
The fireball inside the Octo's mouth reshaped so that the sphere had a cone, that point on the end was aimed for the beach but having the weight of the Warrior on the snout caused it to turn. Luckily the Octo couldn't move as an iceberg formed just bellow it, locking its target on an empty part of the beach.
A red laser formed, cutting the sand like a knife through bread, burning the landscape in a high heat. Since no one was around that part of the beach the Octo managed to harm no one.
Despite the intense grip strength of the masked warrior, Araris was pushed out of the way by the force of the unleashed laser. He landing on the iceberg below harming him (-1 Heart).
NOT TO SCALE WHAT SO EVER! CONSIDER EVERYONE TO BE 15 feet tall in this image!!! AND THE OCTOROAKA AND LAKE AT HALF SIZE!!!
I just thought at an image would help everyone visualize. I consider both Twili characters to be right beside each other (because I forgot to draw one. *que the derp image*)
(If you feel if anything is unfair, say so in the ooc and we can reach an agreement. A lot is going on in this post and I did a lot of things that changed how you wanted to use your actions. That in itself may be annoying, rude, and selfish. If you want me to avoid doing it in the future then say so and I'll acknowledge it.)
Its like humongous actually. Not like a great lake but its still pretty huge. The octoroaka is like the size of a skyscraper and the lake still dwarfs if.
Freezing the water is gunna take all you magic. It's an entire lake. So 1 point would only cover a small portion. Are you ok with all or 1 of your magic spent ?
Yup yup still in the water until i specify. Also with how quick fierce deity mode is, i think the masked ones need back up soon even though there's a lot of power there.
