Seemingly being ignored, Avast spun quickly, grateful for the power surge.
Mass Replication: 4/4
Within seconds, one little X-shaped nuisance was 100 little X-shaped nuisances. Humming like power generators, the little creatures swarmed towards Bob, spinning so fast that they seemed like yellow balls of light. Wary of being ensnared like their leader,
the cloud proceeded to attack Bob from as many directions as possible.
The rainbows around Cassandra swirled faster, agitated by Xyskal's energy.
Shapeshift: 5/100
Aware of the coming danger above, Spyder grabbed Cassandra and transported her to a nearest, most solid-looking building.
He then signaled the the five duplicates around Cassandra, and they cloned themselves twice with their 4 extra charges. The new Spyders charged their Greater Good skill 2/2 (see next
OOC for explanation) before sacrificing themselves to Cassandra.
Shapeshift: 3005/100
Spyder then folded his legs behind him, channeling his power.
This Only Happens In Stories: 2/500
His eyes flickered, and his extra five duplicates (that had originally been meant to defend devi) surged towards him, utilizing their four extra charges.
Power Surge for the Greater Good: 4/2 x 5
[
OOC: The Greater Good Skill means 1 sacrifice = 200 charges]
All five charged Spyder clones shifted into coded clouds and swirled into their summoner's data.
This Only Happens In Stories: 1002/500
Spyder rose into the air, his legs splayed wide like the rays of a flaming green star. Seconds later, every allied player had a duplicate nearby.
SKILL INFO: Spyder has created an exact duplicate of every player in the game (e.g. Haru, Xyskal, Azure etc.). These clones have the exact same skills and the exact same charge amounts. They come in the form of hazy, holographic-looking versions of their counterparts. The duplicates cannot attack independently (so if Xyskal is using his Celestial Starstorm, his duplicate cannot charge or use any other attack aside from that one). The duplicates CAN move independently though, but only to dodge attacks. Otherwise they just hang around the players like their shadow guardians. Basically, this skill allows every allied player to attack twice for one turn. Note that Bob and his summon DO NOT get replicated. This only works for Spyder's allies.
Meanwhile, Cassandra's rainbows blazed bright, transforming their caster into a prismatic star. Wreathed in the light, Cassandra smiled. Suddenly the light became enveloped in a night black cloud. Six bat-like wings, two small pairs and one larger one, tore from the cloud. Five diamond-shaped eyes glittered from within the darkness, and a chilling hiss rasped through the air. The cloud dissipated, leaving a night-black creature in its wake. On its chest was a V-shaped glowing symbol. A strange twisting set of horns curled from the top of its head, nearly encircling an orb of pulsing red. The creature did not land, but drifted a few inches above the ground, like the shadow of a ghost.
Spyder sensed the power surge and whipped around, shocked at the sight.
Cassandra had turned into Sevientorr.
SEVIENTORR'S SKILLS
Energize: Gifts himself or an allied target with 10 charges. Costs 1 charge.
Energize II: Gifts himself or an allied target with 20 charges. Costs 2 charges.
Protection: Sevientorr shields himself for one turn. The shield gives him 40 charges when it expires. If it is destroyed before then, it will heal him a little, but the charge bonus will be lost. While shielded, Sevientorr cannot assist, move, or attack. He will only be able to charge. Costs 10 charges.
Immortal by Default: If Sevientorr dies, he never really leaves the battlefield. He simply hangs in the air, shimmering and flickering like a broken hologram. When he “respawns”, he simply solidifies and gets back into action. He still loses his charges when he dies, like everyone else (although he prefers not to). This skill is passive and does not need to be charged.
While “dead”, Sevientorr cannot charge, attack, or move until “respawn”.
The new being looked out of the shelter's window, scanning the battlefield slowly...taking in every detail before fixing its gaze on Bob.
"Well, well, well..." it said, its voice sounding as though it emanated from everywhere at once. The voice was deep and edged with a hint of what seemed to be contempt. "What do we have here?"
"Sevientorr!" Spyder hissed, his spine legs twitching in anger. Then, under his breath, he whispered... "Cassandra...why?"
Don't worry, Spyder. Cassandra said, her voice coursing through his head.
I have control of him. For the sake of the fight, let's forget the past...okay?
Spyder stared at the being for a long time, but then he just turned away.
Alright Sevientorr...I see you've noticed Bob. Cassandra continued.
He's your target. The dragon thing over there is also a bad guy. Everyone else is your ally. Good luck.
The being sighed dramatically, raising its hands. "Do you really have to order me around? Why can't I just do things my way?"
Energize: 1/1
Sevientorr gains 10 charges!
Because I'm your creator. Cassandra stated.
And you'll do what I tell you.
Sevientorr laughed, a terrifying sound that chilled the bravest blood. His eyes glowed as an orb of protective energy materialized around him.
Protection: 10/10
Sevientorr is now shielded!
"Not for long, my dear."
And at that moment, Spyder realized Cassandra's transformation had been a very bad idea.
