Opening Log

[the_last_free_mods]

A few days have passed since the Qin army marched on Midgard's walls. The warriors already there don't know how much longer the front gate can last. The Qin forces are slowly picking off the wall's defenders, whittling down their numbers.

A metallic dragon twists and writhes in the sky, raining destruction from above. Sanzuwu streak back and forth across the sky, strafing and intercepting any aerial units. Shishi slam into the gates repeatedly, while terracotta soldiers make use of siege engines to break down the gate.

And finally, the inevitable occurs; the gate crashes open. Qin soldiers start flooding in.

But at that very moment...the Bifrost activates.

The first wave has come.

[[OoC: Welcome to the game! You'll be starting off fending off a Qin invasion. You are free to godmode enemies within reason, though the mods may occasionally take over from time to time. Defeat enough enemies, and a boss may appear...

Enemy types can be found with descriptions in the cut below.

Dragons - Strange, otherworldly energy beings that serve the Qin. They are given physical, robotic bodies in the form of classic Chinese dragons so that they can interact with physical world. Enormously powerful. Ascend to their home plane if their bodies are destroyed. There are only nine Dragons at any one time, but if ever one is defeated, its body can be rebuilt.

Fenghuang - Flying Qin battleships. Huge. Phoenix themed decoration. Lots of heavy weapons.

Sanzuwu - Qin fightercraft. Fast, lightly armed. Three distinctive landing gear that look like bird legs.

Yaoguai - Soldiers subject to modification experiments that didn't work properly. The Yaoguai are capable in combat, but their upgrades have left them mentally unstable and very violent.

Shishi - Robot lion statues. Powerful frontline warriors.

Terracotta Soldiers - Clay statues of soldiers that have been animated. The rank and file.

And finally, Thor has something to say to you.]

Kuja almost laughed himself sick. Heroes? Surely their device is not all that accurate to bring a villain such as himself here. "You may wish to adjust your device if you only wish for heroes, and though the World of Conflict knew war - I suppose this one would not do me any favors to go on unimpeded, after all I was sick of the last war." He pushes hair from his face.


"Well - well, this will be different, being on the side facing an overwhelming force for once." He close his eyes as he floats up, five orbs of light circling around him before shooting out, before exploding in even brighter flashes of light. "HOLY!"

What appears to be a giant, mechanical bird falls from the skies. And another. One more. The final one crashes several tens of feet away from Kuja. Out from the burning wreckage comes the silhouette of an eight legged creature. As it draws nearer, Kuja would find that it's actually a machine. ... Or at least, it's probably a machine judging by the cockpit and the fact that a boy was visibly controlling it from inside. It appears organic enough to pass off as a living creature. While smiling, he looks around him and sees the damage he made.

... and then notices the man in front of him.

"... Nice day to be wearing tights in public, isn't it?"

[villain_of_this_play]

He glares down at the small boy with a look of contempt. "You are blind to mistake boots for tights, child." Kuja hovers higher, raising his hand up. "Thundaga!" lightning shot from the sky, striking down the foes.
