A1 + A2 + A3: Sensing the possibility of an oncoming narrative assault, I offer the F a variation of raksha ascension. Should they accept, I create a gossamer-creating essence-respiration core acting as a pseudo Heart grace artifact, to allow them to ex nihilo generate gossamer they can convert into essence to power effects. Such magical energy generation improves the F's generic action power and more importantly allows it to develop non-generic actions with preparation (i.e. forging their own graces, raksha charms, glamour sorceries, etc. to enable access to new action types).
May it be enough to start them along a path of power to survive what will come next.

the F has no idea what most of those words mean*, but it can tell that Ascension is something where you get stronger, so it accepts! the F can now produce Gossamer each round equal to the amount of Essence it has access to and is resistant to direct mental influence! Additionally, the F receives 2 purely arbitrary units of Essence (not to be confused with Motes of essence), which is good, because Essence doesn't seem to be the default substrate here; there isn't any around to respire, except yours and now, the F's.
*This refers specifically to the F, the mostly generic character which was tripped and you helped up. If I am reading the ascension and inferring from various wikis correctly, you are giving them a core which 'breathes'-but-does-not-consume Essence and outputs Gossamer, which is the raw stuff of dreams, and the artefact also serves as a core of the F's being, in a way which it sounds like puts their decision-making and mind partly outside of the scope of narrative interference. 1 Gossamer is worth about 0.1 Charges.

your Cup of ManaTTTTTTT on a T on a T becomes a Cup of ManaTTTTTTT on a T on a T with ttt's! You would indeed, as a being of cosmic power, normally be able to resurrect Anti... but the Godmodder is preventing resurrection from happening! (with a few exceptions, like his shards; The BRRRRRRRanded One's mask means it technically qualifies.)
Leader and Sky High idle! The F regenerates, and produces 2 Gossamer! For a moment, it takes on the form of a ribbon of grey, wan fragment of a figment, then returns to its ethereal nature. The Darkness is training. It goes well, granting 21 Attack and 46 Health! Sovereign English gains another degree of reasonableness! The Bog Standard Snowball gains 7.3 snowballing! The Which decides to spread the love, which is to say the hate, which is to say the Curses! The Which curses the BRRRRRRRanded One with the Geas of Sanity! Its actions must be coherent to work! This is a fairly cheap Curse to cast, since most people are coherent anyway, allowing it to be applied to the BRRRRRRRanded One with ease and without caveats! The BRRRRRRRanded One decides to focus on the Terror Pants. The first think you have to understand about the terror pants is that they have 122/200 HP. this means they have enough health to survive five, but probably not six, attacks from players, or up to 122 attacks from other sources. As well, the Terror Pants originally had a passive to gain dodge, but lose attack, after losing 50% of their HP; this was removed to cure stasis sickness, which was... a thing. Don't worry about it, it's gone now. In any case, aside from that, the Terror Pants has two things of note. One, a list of five attacks, all useable concurrently, none of which have their effects listed on the battlefield, something which makes the Terror Pants somewhat annoying to handle whenever they actually do anything, forcing a search of historical records for answers which, depending on the details of how stasis sickness was resolved, may not even be accurate. And Two, people can wear the Terror Pants if they are large enough, or in other words, everyone who wears the Terror Pants, is large enough to do so, making the Terror Pants a popular method of growing much larger. The BRRRRRRRanded One, finished explaining the Terror Pants, ends their action. The Terror Pants, per the BRRRRRRRanded One's intent, are transformed! into a form which will not be a pain to look up every time! this intent is not part of their action proper, bypassing the Geas.
The Godmodder decides to do the unexpected, just to be annoying. That... Silly string sprayer... thinks they know what he'll do? He'll show them! instead of putting a point into JO█N PHOENI█, The Godmodder scoops some snow out of the Bog Standard Snowball and throws it at the F in such a way that the snow becomes snowballs and bounces off the various walls of the Which House and strike the F directly in the face with several of the resulting balls, which proceed to drop in temperature in such a way that they freeze all the non-evil individuals in the area solid! A few do get caught on the earthworks(which mostly collapse as a result), but not most of them! 60 damage to the F, 30 damage to the Earthworks, and the F and the Exalted are now Frozen Solid! Didn't expect that, didja?

A1: I use solar sun power to resolve the survivability issues that would stem from me being frozen solid, cryogenically preserving myself while still allowing me to act!
A2: Being stuck in a block of ice is boring so I integrate my cellphone with telephonesis.
A3: I send the Godmodder a personality quiz over email, asking him which two of the seven colors of the void would he choose to ascend.
The F, being frozen solid, realizes there's probably some method to take advantage of being frozen solid too! They begin developing Assumption of Air Shape to hijack the ice around them into a form, as for whatever reason the Air element in Exalted also includes beings of ice and snow. They'll figure out how to do the indefinite ice being thing despite being frozen, even if it takes them a while to get there.
John Phoenix cannot be allowed to come into this world!
...Of course, the Which should probably be taken care of first.
I eat three Sandwich that Damages the Which, which damage the Which because I ate them. Leader eats FOUR (point one) Sandwich that Damages the Which, which damage the Which because HE ate them. And if the Which eats any Sandwich that Damages the Which, they will damage the Which because the Which ate them.

You successfully regain action capabilities while maintaining the shell of Ice around you! You then obtain Telephonesis! It's a great success! you can now do anything a normal person with a cellphone could do in about five minutes, as a free action once per round! So, for instance, you will no longer have to spend actions to look things up. The Godmodder picks Violet for its lack of good aspects, and Emerald because of the possibility its Greed will interact negatively with certain parts of the world.
oooooookay then. If the godmodder is preventing revival, I will prevent the godmodder preventing revival!
Prevention of the Prevention of Revival Ritual (3/20)
You start your ritual. But how does it work? The Godmodder, you see, has multiple methods of preventing revival. one of them is a gun which he shoots people with, for instance. It works pretty well. the point is, there are a lot of ways the Godmodder can prevent revival- how will you stop all of them?
John Phoenix cannot be allowed to come into this world!
...Of course, the Which should probably be taken care of first.
I eat three Sandwich that Damages the Which, which damage the Which because I ate them. Leader eats FOUR (point one) Sandwich that Damages the Which, which damage the Which because HE ate them. And if the Which eats any Sandwich that Damages the Which, they will damage the Which because the Which ate them.
You eat 3 Sandwiches of Which-damaging! the Which [3d100: 17, 3, 8] completely fails to subvert them, dropping to 14 HP! ...wait the random number generator was set to 50 there. ...eh, all the rolls were below 25, close enough. The Which then copies the sandwiches and does its best to subvert them, but [3d100: 24,77,79] only manages to subvert two of the duplicated sandwiches, which become Sandwiches That Damage The Which's Enemies! The Which eats those two as something of a last hurrah, destroying T's bandages and lightly wounding them! Leader then eats a Sandwich that Damages the Which,[1d100: 16] killing the Which! with the Which's death, the Curses dissipate!
Due to the Which being dead, Sky High puts their actions, and Leaders their remaining actions, into ???, which gains 6.2 Progress! They then both regenerate! The F begins developing the Assumption of Air Shape! The Gossamer is well-suited to this task, operating at double efficiency, and The F thinks they'll be able to finish developing the charm by next round, but they'll need 7 Gossamer to actually gain and use the charm. The Darkness is Training. It goes poorly; +4 Attack and +7 HP. Sovereign English grabs the word 'magic' from the dead Which and hands it to the Godmodder. The Bog Standard Snowball gains 9.2 Snowballing. The BRRRRRRRanded One targets the Darkness Given Form. Hey, it's made of Form, right? So the BRRRRRRRanded One starts giving it more forms! a pile of forms to blot out the sun! But unfortunately, the Darkness Given Forms can't fill out those forms, because it has no pen and no ink! luckily, the BRRRRRRRanded One has a solution! Blood! The BRRRRRRRanded One stabs the Darkness Given Forms with its own armblade until inky black blood leaks out and smears that blood all over the blade, dealing 66 damage! Then the BRRRRRRRanded One, which totally isn't a vampire, drinks the black blood until it stops flowing, dealing another 34 damage. Before the Darkness Given Forms can recover from its abject confusion and start stabbing The BRRRRRRRanded One, The BRRRRRRRanded One takes the initiative and stabs itself with the Darkness Given Forms's armblade for 100-31 damage! Now it's an equal exchange of blood, nothing objectionable! but just in case The BRRRRRRRanded One runs right back to the Which House after that.
The Godmodder puts the final point into, and uses, JOHN PHOENIX! Nothing happens for a few seconds, and then a man with very large muscles and dark purple veins which mean he is healthy, in a very good suit with the color scheme of green and blue which is the color scheme of john phoenix descended ominously from the sky, looking like he was smart or a defence attorney or someone who had once been a defence attorney. He was standing in the sky, yes standing on a bullet, a bullet which was very unique and did not look anything like ordinary bullets, because it was a very special bullet,which was special because it had the power to capture the souls of anyone who died from the bullet, and one such individual was the mans mother, who loved Him very much as mothers were known todo. Except, that was not the whole story of the special bullet which did not look like an ordinary bullet, because this bullet had actually hit another bullet just like it, which was the bullet which had killedthe mother of John Phoenix, as well as two assassins who nobody cared about because they were evil. So instead of the bullet holding the soul of John Phoenix's mother, the bullet held the soul of thebullet which held the soul of John Phoenix's mother, which meant John Phoenix's mother's soul was trapped in a bullet in a bullet, for all of eternity. But John Phoenix was able to use His Psychic Powerswhich He had gained from the magic of the badge of Buddy Goodman, the good man who turned evil, in such a way that He could still communicate with His mothers Soul inside the bullet inside the bullet, and wasable to teach her to control the bullet inside the bullet in such a way that the bullet inside the bullet would control the bullet which was not inside a bullet, like she had been able to do before the first bullethad been hit by the second bullet, so the bullet John Phoenix was standing on was levitated by His mother inside of it, which was how He was descending from the sky on a bullet. It was true that JohnPhoenix could also have descended from the sky Himself by using His Psychic Powers on His own clothing or just His dead skin and hair or even on the air around Him but John Phoenix's mind was toobusy with other things which were more important. It was clear that anything John Phoenix was thinking about would be more important than the simple act of levitation, because John Phoenix had an IQthat had once been measured to be in the range of IQ's that is considered to be the range in which geniuses are said to found, when He was only twelve years, and also one month, old, and He had onlygrown more smart since, with an IQ which was now considered to be well beyond the range in which geniuses were said to be found, and which could only be measured using special IQ tests which weredesigned by John Phoenix to be more accurate and allow for higher numbers than the ordinary IQ tests. After a minute, John Phoenix's mother finished lowering Him dramatically onto the ground. JohnPhoenix did not say thank you. John Phoenix did not say thank you for two reasons, one of which was because His mother did not need thanks for what she had done. Levitating as a bullet inside a bulletwas not a difficult task. John Phoenix's Mother simply performed an easy task and she needed no thanks or special recognition for her doing what she had done. John Phoenix thought He was superior toHis mother. John Phoenix held no ill-will towards Mary Phoenix but He knew He was better and smarter than her. It was only natural that Mary should serve John Phoenix by performing simple tasks forJohn Phoenix, as John Phoenix is better than her. It was to be taken for granted that Mary would do things for John Phoenix, because that was Mary Phoenix's purpose in life, to serve her Son. Also, if JohnPhoenix had not been busy thinking important thoughts, He would have levitated down himself. He also did not thank her because she could not hear the spoken word from within a bullet within a bullet, so instead He sent her a psychic impression of acknowledgement. John Phoenix looked around, flexing His powerful muscles intimidatingly. But apparently The Godmodder had been less smart and wise than John- Godmodder: No. *Ahem* Apparently the Godmodder had for one reason or another decided to summon John Phoenix during the final minute of the round, meaning John Phoenix would not be able to act in glorious fashion until the next one. As a nontraditional entity, the being just-summoned is listed at the bottom of the Player List. But, since it is not a Player, it does not have unlimited respawns.

Incredibly, this works! The Godmodder will no longer instantly kill and/or focus down Anti if you successfully bypass the other anti-Revival measures! You also eat a nice meal. scrumptious. The next blockade on the path to Revival is the God of Death! The God of Death definitely allows some types of resurrection, because players are able to respawn after death without trouble, but whatever lets Players respawn isn't letting Anti do the same. maybe if you can find a way to change that?
Sky High and Leader regenerate! The F fully develops, and then uses, the Assumption of Air Shape charm! This grants The F 3 Damage Resistance and gives them 18 HP! Also, now, instead of being frozen solid, The F is solid frost! the Cat attacks Sovereign English, dealing 20 damage! The Darkness is Training. it gains 15 Attack and 26 HP. The Bog Standard Snowball gains 11.5 Snowballing! The BRRRRRRRanded One decides to target Sovereign English. And they know just what to do! Steal every 'E' from Sovereign English so they can be the BRRRRRRRanded OnEEEE(...)! Sovereign nglish objects, of course, but is soundly stopped by this incredible rebuttal of their points. For you say, the BRRRRRRRanded OnEEEEEEEEE has depicted them as the soyjack and Him as the... Not Soyjak!... he is crying, but it's tears of crazy person blood, not sadness.
The BRRRRRRRanded onEEEEEEEEE steals a whopping 9 E's! Truly, this is a good day for mEEEEmEEEEEs. John Phoenix looks around the battlefield and scoffs. the sheer degree of incompetence here would shock John Phoenix, if John Phoenix had not defeated every bias He could arguably possess and become completely perfect on the third day of His birth. But even though John Phoenix avoids any form of shock through His intellectual might and can easily conceal His emotions through His natural ability to remain stoic at all times, He decides to let through a small fraction of the disdain He feels for incompetent people, like Larry Butz, who once expected thanks for the simple task of driving, which John Phoenix could have done Himself. After making it abundantly clear to everyone just how incompetent they are relative to John Phoenix, John Phoenix moves on to more important matters. First of all, since the courthouses of this world aren't plated with tinfoil, John Phoenix gets Himself legal authority and starts being every defence attorney in the world. Afterwards, John Phoenix uses His psychic powers to throw rocks at Sky High in such a way that they are unable to avoid the rocks and every rock hits one of Sky High's vital areas, dealing heavy damage while bypassing the damage resistance. But John Phoenix's plans do not end there. Not only is every rock thrown at a high speed and pinpoint accuracy, but John Phoenix carves the rocks into points midflight with His psychic powers, causing them to stab into and get stuck in Sky High, eventually burying Sky High beneath the barrage of rocks. This did not kill Sky High, because Sky High had an inhuman degree of vitality which was greater than the amount of health a human would normally have, but not greater than John Phoenixes because John Phoenix was better than Sky High in every way, and also because much of Sky High's health was from external aids like armor, while John Phoenix's health was completely natural, but incredible. This was obvious to anyone who looked at John Phoenix, because John Phoenix's veins were thick, pulsing, and black-purple whenever He flexed, which was a clear sign that He was more healthy and virile than most other men. Most of His veins were hidden by His iconic green suit and blue tie, but you could still see them on His hands. Also, even if John Phoenix had killed Sky High, it would have been a good thing, because John Phoenix knew it was a good thing, because John Phoenix had logically deduced that Sky High was a criminal who had committed several crimes, such as attempted murder, which was obvious even though John Phoenix had not been there to see it, because Sky High was holding a spear, and there was no reason to hold a deadly weapon such as a spear except for murder, and there was blood on the spear, which logically meant that it had been used to stab someone, because blood was much more common inside people than outside people, and the removal of blood counted as attempted murder because people needed blood to live, and nobody would remove blood for good reasons because bloodletting was from a long time ago and nobody did it any more. So John Phoenix was definitely a good person and a defence attorney. The Godmodder puts a point into Self-Actualisation II.

A1: I declare Temptation-Resisting Stance, increasing my dodge-type mental defense value and thus ability to run away from mind-affecting effects in a fashion that negates them affecting me.
A2: I acquire some sheets of tin and aluminum.
A3: Using the craft charm Craftsman Needs No Tools to ignore (and negate any problems caused by) various environmental factors about doing this insufficiently equipped in a basement, I hammer the tin and aluminum sheets into metal leaf. This creates true tinfoil, and some aluminum foil so I can compare effectiveness in case of misnomers.
The F takes some of the foil I'm using to create a foil-plated safe zone in the basement atop the remains of the earthworks, building exterior layer of tin foil for psy-radiant safety and an interior layer of aluminum foil for flavor safety.

I bet he couldn't even charge ??? by a single point, let alone more than the 3.1 that Sky High charges it by every turn. Go ahead, John Phoenix, prove me wrong. You seem to be interested in the party anyways, so go ahead!

Well okay then. whatever floats your boat

Huh, a god of death. Well... I open files, and go to anti's file. I then open another files tab, and open TinyTimCanpy's file. I take TinyTimCanpy's Player file, and drag and drop it into anti's file. Given that TinyTimCanpy hasn't made a post since 2017, I apologize they ever decide to get back into this thread and find out that they're an npc now.
So now Anti is a player? Somehow? How does that even work?

1 - Oh, John Phoenix is better than Sky High in every way. it is simply a fact of life that someone as exceptional along every possible axis as John Phoenix, who is the strongest and healthiest genius to ever live, is naturally superior to someone as base as Sky High. However, T foolishly does not believe Him. I bet He couldn't even charge ??? by a single point, let alone more than the 3.1 that Sky High charges it by every turn. Go ahead, John Phoenix, prove me wrong. You seem to be interested in the party anyways, so go ahead! says T, pointlessly attempting to fool John Phoenix, the most virile and powerful genius ever born. John Phoenix knew T was trying to taunt Him, and did not take the bait.
0 - Also, I subtly recolor everyone else's action text to prevent alteration by John Phoenix, though there was no need to do so, and this action revealed T's foolish credence for false rumours over reality. John Phoenix did not need to alter action text. He simply won every court case and battle using a mix of his NASA supercomputer brain, his psychic powers, and his incredible physical fitness, without any need to rewrite the narrative of reality.

You foolishly disagree with the objective narration about John Phoenix, Ace Attorney, and try to taunt Him, but He doesn't take the bait, owing to His natural ability to remain stoic at all times and His NASA supercomputer brain which allows Him to instantly determine how disingenuous you are being. You also recolor your text. This does not prevent alteration by the individual you referred to, but it does catch Him very slightly off-guard, though He seems to be adapting.

Anti Hyphen Taxman is now sort of TinyTimCanpy's player character! this solves half the problem, but they still need to actually respawn, and a player who doesn't post, doesn't have the actions to respawn with! Seeing as TinyTimCanpy hasn't posted since late 2017...
Leader pets the Cat. The Cat gains 23 HP! Leader and the Cat are now friends. Sky High tries to preform the listed actions, but is unable to reach the Cat or statblock, buried as he is beneath a pile of rocks! His aimless wriggling in an attempt to do so does, as a side-effect, collapse the pile and mostly extricate him, except for those rocks which are currently stabbing into him. Leader and Sky High regen! The F uses the Tinfoil provided by the Exalt to plate the region of the basement they're in! as long as the tinfoil sheets are intact, said region of the basement is completely immune to external psychic assault! It appears both aluminum foil and tin foil work equally well. The Cat scratches Sovereign nglish for 20 damage! The Darkness is training! it gains 13 Attack and 26 HP, and looks at the Cat suspiciously. Sovereign nglish spends the entire round commiserating with himself about his loss of E's. He's so sad, he doesn't even gain a degree of reasonableness! The Bog Standard Snowball gains 14.4 Snowballing! The BRRRRRRRanded OnEEEEEEEEE decides to target the Godmodder! They do this in the one way that most effectively combines their manifold talents: Getting Super Drunk! You see, They're the BRRRRRRRanded OneEEEEEEEEE! That's a name with capitalised B, R's, and E's!... and a T but don't worry about that! So they swap around the order of R and E, letting them go BEEEEEEEEERRRRRRR! And there's a lot of letters, so you know that's a lot of beer! They get drunkm so durnrkt and iextremely durnk but how todpes this hurt the godmodoer anuwe? idungpmo but thye syurue are really dryungk. geyey, hyeyy buttydtt, gomododomdoerman, comeryhave a dirnk!DRINKTN! beariner bearer beer! its'

BEEEEEERRRRR, wiooo1! ... *Ahem* So what the BRRRRRRRanded OnEEEEEEEEE meant to say, was that there was a bear. which The BRRRRRRRanded OnEEEEEEEEE threw a Beer at. The Beer Bear was understandably displeased at this, and got mauling. The Godmodder was too busy boggling at the BRRRRRRRanded OnEEEEEEEEE's drunkenness to completely avoid the bear mauling, but was well able to block the attack with the 94 HP they won from debt, which reduces by 83. Meanwhile, the BRRRRRRRanded OnEEEEEEEEE gets off rather worse, taking 130 damage after Damage Reduction. This does tip them over, though, raising their Hat of Hats to 2! John Phoenix saw Sky High had wriggled their way out of the pile of rocks like the worm they, being beneath John Phoenix, undeniably were. This was an example of humor, where the moral character and overall capabilities of Sky High, who was not on the same side that had summoned John Phoenix, was reflected in Sky High's actions. This was funny, but John Phoenix did not laugh. John Phoenix did not laugh because John Phoenix was able to control His emotions, because John Phoenix had a natural ability to remain stoic at all times. John Phoenix did not always use this ability, because sometimes it was more useful to appear to not be stoic, but even when John Phoenix did laugh, it would not be because He had no choice in the matter, but rather because He, as the greatest defence attorney to have ever lived, had used His NASA supercomputer brain to determine that the best action in this situation was to laugh. Right now, though, laughing would appear unprofessional. It would also make John Phoenix's enemies more angry at Him, which would make them more likely to make mistakes, because people who were not as competent as John Phoenix were capable of being overcome with emotion, because they lacked His natural ability to remain stoic at all times, which He had had since He was a small child several months ago. Instead of laughing, John Phoenix coolly regarded the freed Sky High. it was true that Sky High was like a worm. But it was also true that there were many worms on the field. Logically, there was no reason to focus exclusively on Sky High to the exclusion of all else, excluding all of the other worms which were equally undeserving of John Phoenix's attention. Idly, as John Phoenix prepared His M16. His M16 was a custom M16, which He had had customised with an extended magazine, pump-action grenade launcher, laser dot scope, bayonet, and a special barrel that made the bullets go faster and kill people harder than most other barrels. Also, the Magazine, grenade Launcher, and Scope were each on a different side of the barrel so that they formed a cross shape, because the magazine extended further down than the grenade launcher and bayonet did to the sides, which was an example of thematic consistency because John Phoenix was a holy warrior of justice, because He was a military lawyer as well as a defence attorney, and He was on a mission from G*D. This was even more obvious, because He had been summoned by someone who had G*D in their name, and did not even need to put an asterisk in the middle, not because the Godmodder was disrespectful to G*D, but because the Godmodder clearly was so beloved by G*D that he knew that G*D would be okay with him saying His name. John Phoenix could also say G*D if He wanted to, but wisely knew that some people would not comprehend why it was okay for John Phoenix to say G*D but not for them to say G*D, and so restricted Himself to saying G*D to set a good example, which was an example of John Phoenix's good social skills. Regardless, John Phoenix had finished preparing His custom M16, which He had had upgraded by Merlin to make it the best gun in existence, and in an instance of supreme equanimity, decided that even though it was funny to watch Sky High wriggling inefficiently out of the rocks like the worm they were, when anyone could tell it would have been much faster and easier to get out by destroying the rocks or using more advanced techniques, John Phoenix would not concentrate all of John Phoenix's valuable attention on Sky High. Instead, John Phoenix would throw many rocks and boulders at everyone, which would let Him see if any of the other worms were more funny at wriggling than Sky High had been. So decided, John Phoenix used His psychic powers to pick up and throw more rocks at everyone, except for the people who were on the right side, so that many rocks were flying through the air at John Phoenix's targets with perfect accuracy, and even if they moved out of the way John Phoenix could just use His psychic powers to change the direction of the rocks, until eventually the rocks flew so much and hit so hard that Sky High had taken 50 damage, Leader had taken 70 damage, The Darkness Given Form had taken 90 damage, the Cat, which was small, had taken only 30 damage, and the odd dome of tinfoil underground had taken 25 damage, and all of them had been buried in rubble, except the dome of tinfoil, which already rose to the ceiling of the area it was in, because it was in a limited area underground. Though they had not been buried in rubble quite as much as Sky High had been last round, since there were more of them, it was still a good showing. Also, John Phoenix's usage of burial to attack was similar to what would eventually happen to anyone who opposed John Phoenix, which was an example of foreshadowing. John Phoenix smiled inwardly, but kept His facial expression completely stoic, because this was still not the time for emotion, because that would undervalue the impact of John Phoenix's emotions, which would make it harder for Him to make points quickly without explanation when He needed to, so John Phoenix remained completely stoic. Then He realised that He had overdrawn on His Psychic Powers, which were still sore from when He had had to carry His minions out of hell when it was collapsing while simultaneously lobbing trucks at the few remaining tinfoil-shielded courthouses of His homeworld, so He would not be able to use His Psychic Powers next round, or maybe even longer. The Godmodder starts a new charge. 1/6 for Demon Who Hunts.

Hello! This is Anti. I'm kinda sick of ThalaiDawncaller rambling about random things to me, and me being forced to listen-
Hey!
Erm, I mean free to listen and loving it?
Better.
So could I use my action to revive myself so I can esca-
Anti, I'm this close to putting your whetstone in a pit full of clones of me.
Oh goodness he's serious. Uh, so could I use my action to revive myself so I can listen to ThalaiDawncaller better?
Prevention of the Prevention of Revival Ritual (12/20)
Unfortunately, the only existing method for one player to control the character of another is for the two to have shared control over a single character, specifically by way of one eating the other. In other words, insofar as Anti is TinyTimCampy's character, you can't Act as Anti unless you eat him, and currently, he's too busy being dead for that.
EoTB: The F begins researching Forging the Ring Grace. Seeing as they're trying to gain Ring using Ring which they do not have, this will take 3 turns. Also, Forging a Ring Grace will consume Essence, specifically one arbitrary unit of it, though the Gossamer cost is low at 1. Sky High, after expending an action struggling out of the rocks they'd forgotten existed, like a Worm, begins stabbing John Phoenix in his fleat(sic) left leg. The Stabs are abundant, painful, and only a flesh wound, both due to the worms lack of anatomical focus and the Incredible Vitality of John Phoenix, the most healthy man to take a military exam in the history of military exams. The individual so-stabbed is now suffering from Light Wounds! Leader, after a few moments to stare in awe at the Vitality of John Phoenix, struggles likewise out of his rock pile with one action, and heals the Cat for 42 HP! The G in AG, however, is not toxic, and so is not naturally dissolved by this action. Leader, The F, and Sky High regenerate! The Cat struggles out of the pile of rocks it was under! Leader and Sky High attack the Military Dames, and are blocked by the Bog Standard Snowball! they deal 1² and 1² damage, respectively! The Darkness is Training. It goes poorly, in part because they are buried under a pile of rocks. +5 HP, +3A. Sovereign nglish adds 'missiles' to the Godmodder's latest summon's statline, replacing Strain! This costs him 4 degrees of Reasonableness. The Bog Standard Snowball snowballs, gaining 17.9 Snowballing! The BRRRRRRRanded OnEEEEEEEEE targets the Darkness. But there's a pile of rocks in the way! Rocks, hmmm? Rocks hmmm, rocks hmmm, rocks hmmm- What, don't you know? Hmmm means 'to collect the aforementioned material'! So, The BRRRRRRRanded OnEEEEEEEEE collects all the rocks covering the Darkness Given Form and uses them for the one thing rocks are good for: Making lobsters. historical fact, I tell you. All lobsters, made of earthen materials. don't believe me? Name one lobster species known to a group of humans which hasn't spent much time in space which doesn't originate on earth! You can't, can you? So there! John Phoenix, though no longer strained due to the aid of His ally, Sovereign nglish, who He is allied with, because they are both fighting the same group and not each other, because both of them were brought to this location by the Godmodder and arrived to help him, because that is how they got to this place, because neither of them had been summoned by a player, decides to not use His Psychic Powers- or His Psychic Missiles- this round. Instead, John Phoenix first flexes His powerful muscles. Immediately, His veins bulge out like thick cords, filled with blackish-purple blood- a sure sign of His greater strength and health than most other men. He flexes His powerful muscles so hard, and so fast, and so much, that eventually His flexing has completely knocked Sky High away, directly into a nearby tree. This does 20 damage, but Sky High's damage resistance blocks it. Just as importantly, John Phoenix's muscles have flexed so much that they completely sealed any holes in His leg from Sky High's assault with a deadly weapon, preventing Him from bleeding. John Phoenix then points His custom M16 at Sky High and pulls the trigger. bang! 5 damage after the armor! Because of the M16's special barrel, the bullet goes much faster and kills Sky High much harder then most other bullets! In fact, the bullet goes so much faster, it hit Sky High before the sound of the bullet firing does, making dodging it completely impossible for someone who is not as smart as John Phoenix. And this was only the least of the powers of John Phoenix's custom M16, which was a gun so good that even John Phoenix was willing to use it occasionally. John Phoenix hadn't even applied lube to the barrel for extra speed. This was because John Phoenix knew He didn't need the speed right now, and He might need it later; John Phoenix didn't have any minions in this world yet, so He couldn't be sure that He would always have an unlimited supply of lube on hand for his custom M16, or even if this world had lube. This conservation of limited resources showed that John Phoenix was very smart, and also that He was not a stu, because He didn't have an unlimited supply of lube. John Phoenix aimed again, and fired His Custom M16 again. bang! 5 damage! Unlike lube, John Phoenix had an unlimited supply of bullets. This was because his M16 had been enchanted by Merlin to have an unlimited supply of bullets. The reason he had enchanted John Phoenix's Custom M16 to have unlimited bullets, but not unlimited lube, was because John Phoenix had wisely pointed out that it was more important for Him to be able to use His M16 than it was for it to always be at peak power when He did. Unlimited Lube was also useless without the bullets to accelerate with it. bang! 5 damage! John Phoenix continued firing his M16 at Sky High from a distance. This was because guns are a long-ranged weapon, and only a fool would enter the range of a foe with only short ranged weapons when in possession of a longer ranged weapon; John Phoenix, was his NASA supercomputer brain, was not a fool. bang! bang! bang! bang! bang! bang! 30 damage! Despite the numerous bullets John Phoenix had fired into Sky High with pinpoint accuracy, he was still alive! John Phoenix shrugged to Himself. Some things simply called for tools other than His Custom M16, useful though it was. So, John Phoenix walked up to Sky High, concealing a sneer of superiority with his natural stoicism. BANG! 30 damage! It was like a gunshot, except louder! That was the sound of John Phoenix punching Sky High! John Phoenix's muscles were so powerful and large that when He used even 50% of His power, it sounded like a gunshot from a gun far better than His M16! This was true, because John Phoenix's guns were much better than His Gun, because as a part of John Phoenix, they were naturally better than anything Merlin could create! BANG! BANG! BANG! 90 damage! Even though John Phoenix Himself was punching Sky High, somehow Sky High was still alive! This was shocking to everyone, except for John Phoenix! John Phoenix already knew Sky High had an unnatural and unhealthy quantity of vitality, because of his armor and other things, and his ability to survive the rocks! Something else that was shocking to everyone but John Phoenix was why John Phoenix had entered short range, but the answer was simple. John Phoenix was within John Phoenix's melee range of Sky High, but not within Sky High's melee range! This was because John Phoenix had shot his bullets in such a way that they would completely incapacitate Sky High until they were removed, which meant that Sky High couldn't fight back! John Phoenix knew all of this, so He simply punched Sky High again! BANG! 70 damage! John Phoenix had punched Sky High so hard he went clear through the tree, then the next tree, then the next tree, and into a distant hillside! these impacts together did 10 damage! John Phoenix would have continued, but His strength had been so great it had knocked all of the bullets out of Sky High, which meant he was no longer incapacitated, so John Phoenix didn't. Overall, John Phoenix dealt 245 damage! The Godmodder puts another point into Demon Who Hunts!

A1: I decide to go on an aggressive architectural rebuilding venture, reconstructing the Which House to include another set of stairs with which to get around the primary stairway's defensive barrier. Backup staircases are very handy in case your primary stairwell is obstructed!
A2: While I'm at it, let's overhaul some of these walls, floors, ceilings, etc. and get them back into a good condition. Miscellaneous construction happens in the Which House because I'm rebuilding the place.
A3: Structural integrity partially re-integrated, I can work on updating the fixtures. I install and update the plumbing, electricity, and appropriate lighting to get the Which House set up for modern amenities. Muahahahahaha!
The F continues developing Forging the Ring Grace.
A1 + A2 + A3: Sensing the possibility of an oncoming narrative assault, I offer the F a variation of raksha ascension. Should they accept, I create a gossamer-creating essence-respiration core acting as a pseudo Heart grace artifact, to allow them to ex nihilo generate gossamer they can convert into essence to power effects. Such magical energy generation improves the F's generic action power and more importantly allows it to develop non-generic actions with preparation (i.e. forging their own graces, raksha charms, glamour sorceries, etc. to enable access to new action types).
May it be enough to start them along a path of power to survive what will come next.
I put some stickers that have a t on them onto my t. Next, I... wait. WAIT.
I am a being of cosmic power (I can create hats so of course I am a being of cosmic power) and it hasn't even crossed my mind that I could revive anti?
Ritual of Anti Reviving (2/15)
I gather ants and antlers, to help augment my ritual. I also remember that I totally forgot about one of my counters but I will do that later.
When players get creative.
the F has no idea what most of those words mean*, but it can tell that Ascension is something where you get stronger, so it accepts! the F can now produce Gossamer each round equal to the amount of Essence it has access to and is resistant to direct mental influence! Additionally, the F receives 2 purely arbitrary units of Essence (not to be confused with Motes of essence), which is good, because Essence doesn't seem to be the default substrate here; there isn't any around to respire, except yours and now, the F's.
*This refers specifically to the F, the mostly generic character which was tripped and you helped up. If I am reading the ascension and inferring from various wikis correctly, you are giving them a core which 'breathes'-but-does-not-consume Essence and outputs Gossamer, which is the raw stuff of dreams, and the artefact also serves as a core of the F's being, in a way which it sounds like puts their decision-making and mind partly outside of the scope of narrative interference. 1 Gossamer is worth about 0.1 Charges.

- Purity embodied. Honorary Member of the Going Insane On Purpose Club!
You would indeed, as a being of cosmic power, normally be able to resurrect Anti... but the Godmodder is preventing resurrection from happening! (with a few exceptions, like his shards; The BRRRRRRRanded One's mask means it technically qualifies.)
Leader and Sky High idle!
The F regenerates, and produces 2 Gossamer! For a moment, it takes on the form of a ribbon of grey, wan fragment of a figment, then returns to its ethereal nature.
The Darkness is training. It goes well, granting 21 Attack and 46 Health!
Sovereign English gains another degree of reasonableness!
The Bog Standard Snowball gains 7.3 snowballing!
The Which decides to spread the love, which is to say the hate, which is to say the Curses! The Which curses the BRRRRRRRanded One with the Geas of Sanity! Its actions must be coherent to work! This is a fairly cheap Curse to cast, since most people are coherent anyway, allowing it to be applied to the BRRRRRRRanded One with ease and without caveats!
The BRRRRRRRanded One decides to focus on the Terror Pants. The first think you have to understand about the terror pants is that they have 122/200 HP. this means they have enough health to survive five, but probably not six, attacks from players, or up to 122 attacks from other sources. As well, the Terror Pants originally had a passive to gain dodge, but lose attack, after losing 50% of their HP; this was removed to cure stasis sickness, which was... a thing. Don't worry about it, it's gone now. In any case, aside from that, the Terror Pants has two things of note. One, a list of five attacks, all useable concurrently, none of which have their effects listed on the battlefield, something which makes the Terror Pants somewhat annoying to handle whenever they actually do anything, forcing a search of historical records for answers which, depending on the details of how stasis sickness was resolved, may not even be accurate. And Two, people can wear the Terror Pants if they are large enough, or in other words, everyone who wears the Terror Pants, is large enough to do so, making the Terror Pants a popular method of growing much larger.
The BRRRRRRRanded One, finished explaining the Terror Pants, ends their action. The Terror Pants, per the BRRRRRRRanded One's intent, are transformed! into a form which will not be a pain to look up every time! this intent is not part of their action proper, bypassing the Geas.
The Godmodder decides to do the unexpected, just to be annoying. That... Silly string sprayer... thinks they know what he'll do? He'll show them! instead of putting a point into JO█N PHOENI█, The Godmodder scoops some snow out of the Bog Standard Snowball and throws it at the F in such a way that the snow becomes snowballs and bounces off the various walls of the Which House and strike the F directly in the face with several of the resulting balls, which proceed to drop in temperature in such a way that they freeze all the non-evil individuals in the area solid! A few do get caught on the earthworks(which mostly collapse as a result), but not most of them! 60 damage to the F, 30 damage to the Earthworks, and the F and the Exalted are now Frozen Solid! Didn't expect that, didja?
Sky High's life drains away a bit more. this heals The F, the Darkness, Sovereign English, and the Which for 7, 8, 7, and 8 HP respectively!

The F, being frozen solid, realizes there's probably some method to take advantage of being frozen solid too! They begin developing Assumption of Air Shape to hijack the ice around them into a form, as for whatever reason the Air element in Exalted also includes beings of ice and snow. They'll figure out how to do the indefinite ice being thing despite being frozen, even if it takes them a while to get there.
oooooookay then. If the godmodder is preventing revival, I will prevent the godmodder preventing revival!
Prevention of the Prevention of Revival Ritual (3/20)
When players get creative.
???: 87.5/300
OH NO
John Phoenix cannot be allowed to come into this world!
...Of course, the Which should probably be taken care of first.
I eat three Sandwich that Damages the Which, which damage the Which because I ate them. Leader eats FOUR (point one) Sandwich that Damages the Which, which damage the Which because HE ate them. And if the Which eats any Sandwich that Damages the Which, they will damage the Which because the Which ate them.
You successfully regain action capabilities while maintaining the shell of Ice around you!
You then obtain Telephonesis! It's a great success! you can now do anything a normal person with a cellphone could do in about five minutes, as a free action once per round! So, for instance, you will no longer have to spend actions to look things up.
The Godmodder picks Violet for its lack of good aspects, and Emerald because of the possibility its Greed will interact negatively with certain parts of the world.
You start your ritual. But how does it work? The Godmodder, you see, has multiple methods of preventing revival. one of them is a gun which he shoots people with, for instance. It works pretty well. the point is, there are a lot of ways the Godmodder can prevent revival- how will you stop all of them?
You eat 3 Sandwiches of Which-damaging! the Which [3d100: 17, 3, 8] completely fails to subvert them, dropping to 14 HP!
- Purity embodied. Honorary Member of the Going Insane On Purpose Club!
...wait the random number generator was set to 50 there.
...eh, all the rolls were below 25, close enough.
The Which then copies the sandwiches and does its best to subvert them, but [3d100: 24,77,79] only manages to subvert two of the duplicated sandwiches, which become Sandwiches That Damage The Which's Enemies! The Which eats those two as something of a last hurrah, destroying T's bandages and lightly wounding them!
Leader then eats a Sandwich that Damages the Which,[1d100: 16] killing the Which! with the Which's death, the Curses dissipate!
Due to the Which being dead, Sky High puts their actions, and Leaders their remaining actions, into ???, which gains 6.2 Progress! They then both regenerate!
The F begins developing the Assumption of Air Shape! The Gossamer is well-suited to this task, operating at double efficiency, and The F thinks they'll be able to finish developing the charm by next round, but they'll need 7 Gossamer to actually gain and use the charm.
The Darkness is Training. It goes poorly; +4 Attack and +7 HP.
Sovereign English grabs the word 'magic' from the dead Which and hands it to the Godmodder.
The Bog Standard Snowball gains 9.2 Snowballing.
The BRRRRRRRanded One targets the Darkness Given Form. Hey, it's made of Form, right? So the BRRRRRRRanded One starts giving it more forms! a pile of forms to blot out the sun! But unfortunately, the Darkness Given Forms can't fill out those forms, because it has no pen and no ink! luckily, the BRRRRRRRanded One has a solution! Blood! The BRRRRRRRanded One stabs the Darkness Given Forms with its own armblade until inky black blood leaks out and smears that blood all over the blade, dealing 66 damage! Then the BRRRRRRRanded One, which totally isn't a vampire, drinks the black blood until it stops flowing, dealing another 34 damage. Before the Darkness Given Forms can recover from its abject confusion and start stabbing The BRRRRRRRanded One, The BRRRRRRRanded One takes the initiative and stabs itself with the Darkness Given Forms's armblade for 100-31 damage! Now it's an equal exchange of blood, nothing objectionable!
but just in case The BRRRRRRRanded One runs right back to the Which House after that.
The Godmodder puts the final point into, and uses, JOHN PHOENIX! Nothing happens for a few seconds, and then a man with very large muscles and dark purple veins which mean he is healthy, in a very good suit with the color scheme of green and blue which is the color scheme of john phoenix descended ominously from the sky, looking like he was smart or a defence attorney or someone who had once been a defence attorney. He was standing in the sky, yes standing on a bullet, a bullet which was very unique and did not look anything like ordinary bullets, because it was a very special bullet, which was special because it had the power to capture the souls of anyone who died from the bullet, and one such individual was the mans mother, who loved Him very much as mothers were known to do. Except, that was not the whole story of the special bullet which did not look like an ordinary bullet, because this bullet had actually hit another bullet just like it, which was the bullet which had killed the mother of John Phoenix, as well as two assassins who nobody cared about because they were evil. So instead of the bullet holding the soul of John Phoenix's mother, the bullet held the soul of the bullet which held the soul of John Phoenix's mother, which meant John Phoenix's mother's soul was trapped in a bullet in a bullet, for all of eternity. But John Phoenix was able to use His Psychic Powers which He had gained from the magic of the badge of Buddy Goodman, the good man who turned evil, in such a way that He could still communicate with His mothers Soul inside the bullet inside the bullet, and was able to teach her to control the bullet inside the bullet in such a way that the bullet inside the bullet would control the bullet which was not inside a bullet, like she had been able to do before the first bullet had been hit by the second bullet, so the bullet John Phoenix was standing on was levitated by His mother inside of it, which was how He was descending from the sky on a bullet. It was true that John Phoenix could also have descended from the sky Himself by using His Psychic Powers on His own clothing or just His dead skin and hair or even on the air around Him but John Phoenix's mind was too busy with other things which were more important. It was clear that anything John Phoenix was thinking about would be more important than the simple act of levitation, because John Phoenix had an IQ that had once been measured to be in the range of IQ's that is considered to be the range in which geniuses are said to found, when He was only twelve years, and also one month, old, and He had only grown more smart since, with an IQ which was now considered to be well beyond the range in which geniuses were said to be found, and which could only be measured using special IQ tests which were designed by John Phoenix to be more accurate and allow for higher numbers than the ordinary IQ tests. After a minute, John Phoenix's mother finished lowering Him dramatically onto the ground. John Phoenix did not say thank you. John Phoenix did not say thank you for two reasons, one of which was because His mother did not need thanks for what she had done. Levitating as a bullet inside a bullet was not a difficult task. John Phoenix's Mother simply performed an easy task and she needed no thanks or special recognition for her doing what she had done. John Phoenix thought He was superior to His mother. John Phoenix held no ill-will towards Mary Phoenix but He knew He was better and smarter than her. It was only natural that Mary should serve John Phoenix by performing simple tasks for John Phoenix, as John Phoenix is better than her. It was to be taken for granted that Mary would do things for John Phoenix, because that was Mary Phoenix's purpose in life, to serve her Son. Also, if John Phoenix had not been busy thinking important thoughts, He would have levitated down himself.
He also did not thank her because she could not hear the spoken word from within a bullet within a bullet, so instead He sent her a psychic impression of acknowledgement.
John Phoenix looked around, flexing His powerful muscles intimidatingly. But apparently The Godmodder had been less smart and wise than John-
Godmodder: No.
*Ahem* Apparently the Godmodder had for one reason or another decided to summon John Phoenix during the final minute of the round, meaning John Phoenix would not be able to act in glorious fashion until the next one.
As a nontraditional entity, the being just-summoned is listed at the bottom of the Player List. But, since it is not a Player, it does not have unlimited respawns.

First the gun! I try to take the gun from the godmodder and eat it! I perform this feast of bullets by trading the godmodder a watergun that is painted really well. To eat the gun properly, I blend it up in a juicer, and serve it with carrots.

When players get creative.
(I think you made a mistake when recording the charge growth- for ??? to be at 103.9 from last round, you would need to spend all 3 player actions as well as every Sky High and Leader action on ???, which would leave no actions to tear open a hole in the universe! Your listed charge in this post has been modified accordingly.)
hm... something feels off about your phrasing. Well, either way, you rip a hole in the universe, causing a crossover with... with... huh. Where did this cat come from? It doesn't have any identifying marks of what fiction it's from... Well, regardless, Cat summoned!
Since you're in The BRRRRRRRanded One's basement, and there's nobody else here except mushroom creatures and the F, you save the effort and nap with all 3 actions, producing 30 Gossamer!
Incredibly, this works! The Godmodder will no longer instantly kill and/or focus down Anti if you successfully bypass the other anti-Revival measures! You also eat a nice meal. scrumptious.

The next blockade on the path to Revival is the God of Death! The God of Death definitely allows some types of resurrection, because players are able to respawn after death without trouble, but whatever lets Players respawn isn't letting Anti do the same. maybe if you can find a way to change that?

The F fully develops, and then uses, the Assumption of Air Shape charm! This grants The F 3 Damage Resistance and gives them 18 HP! Also, now, instead of being frozen solid, The F is solid frost!

The Darkness is Training. it gains 15 Attack and 26 HP.

The BRRRRRRRanded One decides to target Sovereign English. And they know just what to do! Steal every 'E' from Sovereign English so they can be the BRRRRRRRanded OnEEEE(...)!
Sovereign nglish objects, of course, but is soundly stopped by this incredible rebuttal of their points. For you say, the BRRRRRRRanded OnEEEEEEEEE has depicted them as the soyjack and Him as the... Not Soyjak!... he is crying, but it's tears of crazy person blood, not sadness.
The BRRRRRRRanded onEEEEEEEEE steals a whopping 9 E's! Truly, this is a good day for mEEEEmEEEEEs.
John Phoenix looks around the battlefield and scoffs. the sheer degree of incompetence here would shock John Phoenix, if John Phoenix had not defeated every bias He could arguably possess and become completely perfect on the third day of His birth. But even though John Phoenix avoids any form of shock through His intellectual might and can easily conceal His emotions through His natural ability to remain stoic at all times, He decides to let through a small fraction of the disdain He feels for incompetent people, like Larry Butz, who once expected thanks for the simple task of driving, which John Phoenix could have done Himself. After making it abundantly clear to everyone just how incompetent they are relative to John Phoenix, John Phoenix moves on to more important matters. First of all, since the courthouses of this world aren't plated with tinfoil, John Phoenix gets Himself legal authority and starts being every defence attorney in the world. Afterwards, John Phoenix uses His psychic powers to throw rocks at Sky High in such a way that they are unable to avoid the rocks and every rock hits one of Sky High's vital areas, dealing heavy damage while bypassing the damage resistance. But John Phoenix's plans do not end there. Not only is every rock thrown at a high speed and pinpoint accuracy, but John Phoenix carves the rocks into points midflight with His psychic powers, causing them to stab into and get stuck in Sky High, eventually burying Sky High beneath the barrage of rocks. This did not kill Sky High, because Sky High had an inhuman degree of vitality which was greater than the amount of health a human would normally have, but not greater than John Phoenixes because John Phoenix was better than Sky High in every way, and also because much of Sky High's health was from external aids like armor, while John Phoenix's health was completely natural, but incredible. This was obvious to anyone who looked at John Phoenix, because John Phoenix's veins were thick, pulsing, and black-purple whenever He flexed, which was a clear sign that He was more healthy and virile than most other men. Most of His veins were hidden by His iconic green suit and blue tie, but you could still see them on His hands. Also, even if John Phoenix had killed Sky High, it would have been a good thing, because John Phoenix knew it was a good thing, because John Phoenix had logically deduced that Sky High was a criminal who had committed several crimes, such as attempted murder, which was obvious even though John Phoenix had not been there to see it, because Sky High was holding a spear, and there was no reason to hold a deadly weapon such as a spear except for murder, and there was blood on the spear, which logically meant that it had been used to stab someone, because blood was much more common inside people than outside people, and the removal of blood counted as attempted murder because people needed blood to live, and nobody would remove blood for good reasons because bloodletting was from a long time ago and nobody did it any more. So John Phoenix was definitely a good person and a defence attorney.

A2: I acquire some sheets of tin and aluminum.
A3: Using the craft charm Craftsman Needs No Tools to ignore (and negate any problems caused by) various environmental factors about doing this insufficiently equipped in a basement, I hammer the tin and aluminum sheets into metal leaf. This creates true tinfoil, and some aluminum foil so I can compare effectiveness in case of misnomers.
The F takes some of the foil I'm using to create a foil-plated safe zone in the basement atop the remains of the earthworks, building exterior layer of tin foil for psy-radiant safety and an interior layer of aluminum foil for flavor safety.
???: 108.1 + 3/300

1 - Oh, John Phoenix is better than Sky High in every way, you say? I don't believe him. I bet he couldn't even charge ??? by a single point, let alone more than the 3.1 that Sky High charges it by every turn. Go ahead, John Phoenix, prove me wrong. You seem to be interested in the party anyways, so go ahead!
0 - Also, I subtly recolor everyone else's action text to prevent alteration by John Phoenix, or at least make it clear and obvious..
Well okay then. whatever floats your boat
1 - Leader pets the cat. The two of them are friends now. This petting has the effect of healing the cat.
1 - Sky High quietly removes the G from [AG] in the Cat's statblock (using his spear) and offers it to The BRRRRRRRanded OnEEEEEEEEE as a peace offering. (Can't have the Godmodder stealing our cat; it is very clearly A-aligned.)
1 - He then quietly removes the 3 from [3] in the Cat's statblock and adds it to the charge count of ??? (as seen above).
Entity - Sky High, Cat, and Leader attack the Military Dames.
Huh, a god of death. Well... I open files, and go to anti's file. I then open another files tab, and open TinyTimCanpy's file. I take TinyTimCanpy's Player file, and drag and drop it into anti's file. Given that TinyTimCanpy hasn't made a post since 2017, I apologize they ever decide to get back into this thread and find out that they're an npc now.
So now Anti is a player? Somehow? How does that even work?
Prevention of the Prevention of Revival Ritual (9/20)
When players get creative.
You declare a resistance to mental attacks and influence, gaining what will be abstracted as 30 HP's worth of defence against any mental attack!
you non-specifically acquire some tin and aluminum, and use it to create tinfoil!
You foolishly disagree with the objective narration about John Phoenix, Ace Attorney, and try to taunt Him, but He doesn't take the bait, owing to His natural ability to remain stoic at all times and His NASA supercomputer brain which allows Him to instantly determine how disingenuous you are being. You also recolor your text. This does not prevent alteration by the individual you referred to, but it does catch Him very slightly off-guard, though He seems to be adapting.
Anti Hyphen Taxman is now sort of TinyTimCanpy's player character! this solves half the problem, but they still need to actually respawn, and a player who doesn't post, doesn't have the actions to respawn with! Seeing as TinyTimCanpy hasn't posted since late 2017...
Leader pets the Cat. The Cat gains 23 HP! Leader and the Cat are now friends.
Sky High tries to preform the listed actions, but is unable to reach the Cat or statblock, buried as he is beneath a pile of rocks! His aimless wriggling in an attempt to do so does, as a side-effect, collapse the pile and mostly extricate him, except for those rocks which are currently stabbing into him.
Leader and Sky High regen!
The F uses the Tinfoil provided by the Exalt to plate the region of the basement they're in! as long as the tinfoil sheets are intact, said region of the basement is completely immune to external psychic assault! It appears both aluminum foil and tin foil work equally well.
The Cat scratches Sovereign nglish for 20 damage!
The Darkness is training! it gains 13 Attack and 26 HP, and looks at the Cat suspiciously.
Sovereign nglish spends the entire round commiserating with himself about his loss of E's. He's so sad, he doesn't even gain a degree of reasonableness!
The Bog Standard Snowball gains 14.4 Snowballing!

*Ahem*
So what the BRRRRRRRanded OnEEEEEEEEE meant to say, was that there was a bear. which The BRRRRRRRanded OnEEEEEEEEE threw a Beer at. The Beer Bear was understandably displeased at this, and got mauling.
The Godmodder was too busy boggling at the BRRRRRRRanded OnEEEEEEEEE's drunkenness to completely avoid the bear mauling, but was well able to block the attack with the 94 HP they won from debt, which reduces by 83. Meanwhile, the BRRRRRRRanded OnEEEEEEEEE gets off rather worse, taking 130 damage after Damage Reduction. This does tip them over, though, raising their Hat of Hats to 2!
John Phoenix saw Sky High had wriggled their way out of the pile of rocks like the worm they, being beneath John Phoenix, undeniably were. This was an example of humor, where the moral character and overall capabilities of Sky High, who was not on the same side that had summoned John Phoenix, was reflected in Sky High's actions. This was funny, but John Phoenix did not laugh. John Phoenix did not laugh because John Phoenix was able to control His emotions, because John Phoenix had a natural ability to remain stoic at all times. John Phoenix did not always use this ability, because sometimes it was more useful to appear to not be stoic, but even when John Phoenix did laugh, it would not be because He had no choice in the matter, but rather because He, as the greatest defence attorney to have ever lived, had used His NASA supercomputer brain to determine that the best action in this situation was to laugh. Right now, though, laughing would appear unprofessional. It would also make John Phoenix's enemies more angry at Him, which would make them more likely to make mistakes, because people who were not as competent as John Phoenix were capable of being overcome with emotion, because they lacked His natural ability to remain stoic at all times, which He had had since He was a small child several months ago. Instead of laughing, John Phoenix coolly regarded the freed Sky High. it was true that Sky High was like a worm. But it was also true that there were many worms on the field. Logically, there was no reason to focus exclusively on Sky High to the exclusion of all else, excluding all of the other worms which were equally undeserving of John Phoenix's attention. Idly, as John Phoenix prepared His M16. His M16 was a custom M16, which He had had customised with an extended magazine, pump-action grenade launcher, laser dot scope, bayonet, and a special barrel that made the bullets go faster and kill people harder than most other barrels. Also, the Magazine, grenade Launcher, and Scope were each on a different side of the barrel so that they formed a cross shape, because the magazine extended further down than the grenade launcher and bayonet did to the sides, which was an example of thematic consistency because John Phoenix was a holy warrior of justice, because He was a military lawyer as well as a defence attorney, and He was on a mission from G*D. This was even more obvious, because He had been summoned by someone who had G*D in their name, and did not even need to put an asterisk in the middle, not because the Godmodder was disrespectful to G*D, but because the Godmodder clearly was so beloved by G*D that he knew that G*D would be okay with him saying His name. John Phoenix could also say G*D if He wanted to, but wisely knew that some people would not comprehend why it was okay for John Phoenix to say G*D but not for them to say G*D, and so restricted Himself to saying G*D to set a good example, which was an example of John Phoenix's good social skills. Regardless, John Phoenix had finished preparing His custom M16, which He had had upgraded by Merlin to make it the best gun in existence, and in an instance of supreme equanimity, decided that even though it was funny to watch Sky High wriggling inefficiently out of the rocks like the worm they were, when anyone could tell it would have been much faster and easier to get out by destroying the rocks or using more advanced techniques, John Phoenix would not concentrate all of John Phoenix's valuable attention on Sky High. Instead, John Phoenix would throw many rocks and boulders at everyone, which would let Him see if any of the other worms were more funny at wriggling than Sky High had been. So decided, John Phoenix used His psychic powers to pick up and throw more rocks at everyone, except for the people who were on the right side, so that many rocks were flying through the air at John Phoenix's targets with perfect accuracy, and even if they moved out of the way John Phoenix could just use His psychic powers to change the direction of the rocks, until eventually the rocks flew so much and hit so hard that Sky High had taken 50 damage, Leader had taken 70 damage, The Darkness Given Form had taken 90 damage, the Cat, which was small, had taken only 30 damage, and the odd dome of tinfoil underground had taken 25 damage, and all of them had been buried in rubble, except the dome of tinfoil, which already rose to the ceiling of the area it was in, because it was in a limited area underground. Though they had not been buried in rubble quite as much as Sky High had been last round, since there were more of them, it was still a good showing. Also, John Phoenix's usage of burial to attack was similar to what would eventually happen to anyone who opposed John Phoenix, which was an example of foreshadowing.
John Phoenix smiled inwardly, but kept His facial expression completely stoic, because this was still not the time for emotion, because that would undervalue the impact of John Phoenix's emotions, which would make it harder for Him to make points quickly without explanation when He needed to, so John Phoenix remained completely stoic.
Then He realised that He had overdrawn on His Psychic Powers, which were still sore from when He had had to carry His minions out of hell when it was collapsing while simultaneously lobbing trucks at the few remaining tinfoil-shielded courthouses of His homeworld, so He would not be able to use His Psychic Powers next round, or maybe even longer.

The F begins researching Forging the Ring Grace. Seeing as they're trying to gain Ring using Ring which they do not have, this will take 3 turns. Also, Forging a Ring Grace will consume Essence, specifically one arbitrary unit of it, though the Gossamer cost is low at 1.
Sky High, after expending an action struggling out of the rocks they'd forgotten existed, like a Worm, begins stabbing John Phoenix in his fleat(sic) left leg. The Stabs are abundant, painful, and only a flesh wound, both due to the worms lack of anatomical focus and the Incredible Vitality of John Phoenix, the most healthy man to take a military exam in the history of military exams. The individual so-stabbed is now suffering from Light Wounds!
Leader, after a few moments to stare in awe at the Vitality of John Phoenix, struggles likewise out of his rock pile with one action, and heals the Cat for 42 HP! The G in AG, however, is not toxic, and so is not naturally dissolved by this action.
Leader, The F, and Sky High regenerate!
The Cat struggles out of the pile of rocks it was under!

The BRRRRRRRanded OnEEEEEEEEE targets the Darkness. But there's a pile of rocks in the way! Rocks, hmmm? Rocks hmmm, rocks hmmm, rocks hmmm- What, don't you know? Hmmm means 'to collect the aforementioned material'! So, The BRRRRRRRanded OnEEEEEEEEE collects all the rocks covering the Darkness Given Form and uses them for the one thing rocks are good for:
Making lobsters. historical fact, I tell you. All lobsters, made of earthen materials. don't believe me? Name one lobster species known to a group of humans which hasn't spent much time in space which doesn't originate on earth! You can't, can you? So there!
John Phoenix, though no longer strained due to the aid of His ally, Sovereign nglish, who He is allied with, because they are both fighting the same group and not each other, because both of them were brought to this location by the Godmodder and arrived to help him, because that is how they got to this place, because neither of them had been summoned by a player, decides to not use His Psychic Powers- or His Psychic Missiles- this round. Instead, John Phoenix first flexes His powerful muscles. Immediately, His veins bulge out like thick cords, filled with blackish-purple blood- a sure sign of His greater strength and health than most other men. He flexes His powerful muscles so hard, and so fast, and so much, that eventually His flexing has completely knocked Sky High away, directly into a nearby tree. This does 20 damage, but Sky High's damage resistance blocks it. Just as importantly, John Phoenix's muscles have flexed so much that they completely sealed any holes in His leg from Sky High's assault with a deadly weapon, preventing Him from bleeding. John Phoenix then points His custom M16 at Sky High and pulls the trigger. bang! 5 damage after the armor! Because of the M16's special barrel, the bullet goes much faster and kills Sky High much harder then most other bullets! In fact, the bullet goes so much faster, it hit Sky High before the sound of the bullet firing does, making dodging it completely impossible for someone who is not as smart as John Phoenix. And this was only the least of the powers of John Phoenix's custom M16, which was a gun so good that even John Phoenix was willing to use it occasionally. John Phoenix hadn't even applied lube to the barrel for extra speed. This was because John Phoenix knew He didn't need the speed right now, and He might need it later; John Phoenix didn't have any minions in this world yet, so He couldn't be sure that He would always have an unlimited supply of lube on hand for his custom M16, or even if this world had lube. This conservation of limited resources showed that John Phoenix was very smart, and also that He was not a stu, because He didn't have an unlimited supply of lube. John Phoenix aimed again, and fired His Custom M16 again. bang! 5 damage! Unlike lube, John Phoenix had an unlimited supply of bullets. This was because his M16 had been enchanted by Merlin to have an unlimited supply of bullets. The reason he had enchanted John Phoenix's Custom M16 to have unlimited bullets, but not unlimited lube, was because John Phoenix had wisely pointed out that it was more important for Him to be able to use His M16 than it was for it to always be at peak power when He did. Unlimited Lube was also useless without the bullets to accelerate with it. bang! 5 damage! John Phoenix continued firing his M16 at Sky High from a distance. This was because guns are a long-ranged weapon, and only a fool would enter the range of a foe with only short ranged weapons when in possession of a longer ranged weapon; John Phoenix, was his NASA supercomputer brain, was not a fool. bang! bang! bang! bang! bang! bang! 30 damage! Despite the numerous bullets John Phoenix had fired into Sky High with pinpoint accuracy, he was still alive! John Phoenix shrugged to Himself. Some things simply called for tools other than His Custom M16, useful though it was. So, John Phoenix walked up to Sky High, concealing a sneer of superiority with his natural stoicism. BANG! 30 damage! It was like a gunshot, except louder! That was the sound of John Phoenix punching Sky High! John Phoenix's muscles were so powerful and large that when He used even 50% of His power, it sounded like a gunshot from a gun far better than His M16! This was true, because John Phoenix's guns were much better than His Gun, because as a part of John Phoenix, they were naturally better than anything Merlin could create! BANG! BANG! BANG! 90 damage! Even though John Phoenix Himself was punching Sky High, somehow Sky High was still alive! This was shocking to everyone, except for John Phoenix! John Phoenix already knew Sky High had an unnatural and unhealthy quantity of vitality, because of his armor and other things, and his ability to survive the rocks! Something else that was shocking to everyone but John Phoenix was why John Phoenix had entered short range, but the answer was simple. John Phoenix was within John Phoenix's melee range of Sky High, but not within Sky High's melee range! This was because John Phoenix had shot his bullets in such a way that they would completely incapacitate Sky High until they were removed, which meant that Sky High couldn't fight back! John Phoenix knew all of this, so He simply punched Sky High again! BANG! 70 damage! John Phoenix had punched Sky High so hard he went clear through the tree, then the next tree, then the next tree, and into a distant hillside! these impacts together did 10 damage! John Phoenix would have continued, but His strength had been so great it had knocked all of the bullets out of Sky High, which meant he was no longer incapacitated, so John Phoenix didn't. Overall, John Phoenix dealt 245 damage!

A1: I decide to go on an aggressive architectural rebuilding venture, reconstructing the Which House to include another set of stairs with which to get around the primary stairway's defensive barrier. Backup staircases are very handy in case your primary stairwell is obstructed!
A2: While I'm at it, let's overhaul some of these walls, floors, ceilings, etc. and get them back into a good condition. Miscellaneous construction happens in the Which House because I'm rebuilding the place.
A3: Structural integrity partially re-integrated, I can work on updating the fixtures. I install and update the plumbing, electricity, and appropriate lighting to get the Which House set up for modern amenities. Muahahahahaha!
