I speak to them in Drill: "Could you tell me how to find an entity called Markus Twain?" "I am hungry visitor and want to make him my mentor, luxurious pay included. I could pay you both too. Also don't try to grab any valuables around here or your hands will be broken and your PC will be enslaved by the magic effect."
The shopkeep shrugs and tosses the mask back onto the pile. "Ah well, it was worth a shot, I was bluffing anyways, I don't actually care enough to break these thing, and a round three against the Eishalon would be entertaining at the very least."

I look at the maniac glare at him, I repeat the first attack i ever did to him, I pull out a replica of the key of suites, and bash the maniac over the head with it.
"Hey, you must have some really bad memory, right? Yeah, it's gotta be terrible! Like I told you, those Keys are heavy enough for me to avoid, Unless I'm unconscious that is. Besides, they don't do any damage, just open things! Heh, I guess I'm so intimidating you took leave of your senses, if you forgot so easily!" (By the way, the name 'maniac' does not imply sanity.)
I'd recommend some of you guys input some charge into this at some point. Having a 45 charge thing just sort of standing here wreaking havoc would probably be bad for you guys.

Is there any way to see what the cyan relic on me means/what it is? If so, then I do that. I also thank Perry and Cuphead for their assistance.
"Thanks, you two. Genuinely could not have done that without you."
Orders: Try dismantling the radiation enforcer.
well, you already have some knowledge on the relic. after the vessel of grief died, it dropped a similar relic, but red instead. the exact uses of the relic are unknown, but it is certain it contained much power, as it was both the catalyst for the branded ones short-lived stint as "insane killer enemy", and for the Manifest of Follys significant increase in power. The reason you have the relic is that you contributed the most to the defeat of the Manifest, and it goes to whoever did such (I suppose you could argue it was perry or piono, but perry is an entity and piono got the relic last time). the Relic, unlike (arguably) the masks, is a genuine boon. you're not sure what exactly it does, though... Perry merely squacks. Cuphead says that you're welcome (more or less).
yuicharrglereeeeeeeee. Perry, with his experience destroying random machines (that animal is a MENACE I swear) easilly neutralizes the radiation enforcer. Cuphead proceeds to use EX move! this hits every enemy on the field. twice.The radiation enforcer explodes, the maniac starts playing 5d chess while conversing in the 7th dimension with the first attack before being completely blindsided by the second attack and falling down (ouch. 1 damage, and he is now missing... lets see... the top-middle of his ribcage.). oh, and the eishalon and log goblin zombies corpses get hit too, but it doesn't matter much since they're corpses. The Godmodder charges towards perry on his hopping high horse while wielding it as a dire chain,fully intending to kill him... nope, Perry fails his awareness rolls to figure out whether the horse is real or not. The Godmodder's dire chain wielding does... lets see... a minimum of 8 damage... but this is a large dire chain, and he's the Godmodder! Also, he's on a horse. anyway, the long story short is that the Godmodder clobbers him with it until he falls down, then sets him on water. Perry the platypus takes 60-10 damage and dies (and good riddance, platypuses are freaks of nature).

since the sidequest will probably not start this turn I give piono a charge
you do that! if the charge is intended to be going toward the reward-amount of the sidequest, its effectiveness is doubled. also, i will take this as confirmation as to your intent to sidequest, and will begin preparation in the earnest. do note that until I am ready, you may continue to act as normal.
I shalt snekk most snekly up to them and try to get a closer look.
You cast teleport to get up a ridge that's too steep to climb, and see this: You don't move any further because the crackling field looks... dangerous- in the corner you see it split one of those spikes nearly in half! you are also struck by how much greenery there is within the bounds of the field- you haven't seen any that isn't either corrupt or withered since you got here!
They (eye and threeheaded thing) did not make any conversation attempts? Maybe their species isn't capable of reasoning and language (oh wait I just... ok)... or they are kinda rude.
I speak to them in Drill: "Could you tell me how to find an entity called Markus Twain?" "I am hungry visitor and want to make him my mentor, luxurious pay included. I could pay you both too. Also don't try to grab any valuables around here or your hands will be broken and your PC will be enslaved by the magic effect."
The eye thing speaks incomprehensibly with an undertone of hostility, before the blackened figure flaps its wings (insofar as it is able, being, well, stuck to the wall). the eye thing (which you notice is bleeding from the back) begins to speak in a more hollow drill-language, but much more comprehensibly. roughly translated... (past tense) strength. he(respectful) not see. Mortal. Strength Others. Existence (present tense).
I begin nodding to suggest that I understood that garbled mess. Then I ask them what they want as payment.
[Negation word] Existence (derisive)--> Caretaker. Absence (pause, considering of next word) Maelstorm (another pause) Presence. a pause, almost long enough for you to think they're done. then, the eye shudders, and continues. Impermanence (stilted, grudging) Acceptance. (Enthusiastic???)permanence(emphasis)->value.
I try and find out what is making that field, going around the perimeter.
you do that. what you see while looking around is collected in the following image: you do not find the source or any hints, and so circle around to the front.
you also realize you have no clue how the field works (unless ooc you figure something out somehow). you know it somehow works on gasses, as there isn't any of the normal smog from the lava within. also, it is either selective in effect, or hollow, as the structures within do not look more durable then the spikes, but it does not harm them. You are suddenly very aware that you look both very suspicious and very silly to anyone who looks in your direction, if anyone does. luckily, nobody did.
Alright, there hasn't been much for me to make challanges from this charge, but I've got a (probably terrible) idea for one now! Find a way to spell charge that makes me laugh, somehow, or at least exhale out of my nose with noticeably more force then usual. hey, it's better then nothing.
i glitch the key into a rail gun and shoot the maniac with it. "Perhaps this might do some damage."
you fire your key at the maniac! "Hey, you must have some really bad memory, right? Yeah, it's gotta be terrible! Like I told you, that Key's heavy enough for me to avoid, Unless I'm unconscious that is! I mean, I told you about it 13 minutes ago, which is now the canonical length of this particular round, so I suppose you're just too scared to remember!" ...fair point, taking into account the maniacs insanity. the maniac dodges it.
If the sidequest does not start this turn I charge and add it to the quest reward
yeah, the sidequest's going to take a while to get ready. it's really time-consuming to set this kind of thing up, but I Will ensure quality! Realism! Godmodder:And the Godmodders victory wait no not that one.
it is important to note now that charges from algot, if they're going toward the sidequest reward, can have doubled effect as long as 1) they go in a seperate 'SPC-3301' credit section, and 2) if algot declines the sidequest when it's ready (And nobody else steps up for it within lets say 5 rounds) you have to pay those charges back to reality. remember, the SPC-3301 credits'll go to the godmodder if he wins, which is why they're doubled.
Hmm.... time for a test run of this idea. I pull out a diamond, and cast revivify on Perry.
Orders: Get The maniac, please.
When i read this post the first time, i thought 'hm... should I let it work...? eh, maybe'. but then I got to the point when the maniac was attacked and one thing led to another and now this particular round will apparently last exactly 13 minutes. since at least 1/7 of this round is over by now for sure, it's too late for revivify. oh well. Cuphead attacks the Maniac! The maniac look at the attack. he takes a step to the left. it curves to the left. he takes a step to the right. it curves to the right. he runs around it, over to Cuphead, and says in a terrible, raspy voice "Pal, I've played some terrible games in my life, but nobody beats yours" and slaps him hard in the face 10 times. Cuphead dodges 8 times, but still takes 4 damage from the two hits. the Maniac then shrugs to himself, before bonking Cuphead on the head with a frying pan (which Cuphead dodges), opening his mouth as wide as possible and sucking out Cupheads soul,Without making any contact with Cupheads body. Or mouth. Or anything related to Cuphead. Just in case. You never know with kids nowadays! Sadly, The Maniac failed to take into account that Cuphead has sick dodging abilities, and Cuphead dodges. Again. As well, the chaser shot looped around while the Maniac was doing that and exploded his right hand, like a tiny explosive star-shaped tangerine which is colored green. 2 damage... the maniac then jams his knife into the stump, giving him the "incredibly" "intimidating" knife arm, and his hand gets up in the distance and starts crawling over to the battlefield. The Godmodder nods in appreciation of the maniacs talent... at... getting hit... never mind, I don't know why he's nodding. maybe he's asleep? that's never safe to do when you're on a horse of dubious "existence" status. then, he snaps a tiny branch off the LOG GOBLIN ZOMBIE's log. and puts it back. and repeats the process several ti- help he accidentally build an ent!
as it turns out, the LOG GOBLIN ZOMBIEs log is an ent. hooray...! it's already 40 HP down, however, from Cupheads indiscriminate spread. ...then, the Ent uses 'Animate Tree'. as it turns out, trees are very deadly. you know how many limbs they have? like 40 at least! even with just 1 damage per limb, that's devastating...luckily, the trees around here, while fairly healthy, only have 8 or so limbs each. also, if you can get past them and kill the Log, they'll drop... or rather, stop being animated and be normal trees again.

I think I'll just double them when the game completes if the Godmodder gets them, and hold onto them as regular credits in the meantime.
Anyways, charge names? Well, clunk, chargleblargleflarge, a chimpanzee come to mind but by that point it's just getting silly, and if I go so far as "chairge" Ire will probably come maul me with a piece of wood so we'll try those four and see if that works.

Seeing as the gun didn't work as I inventory it, i pull out the first attack I did that actually did Damage to the him. Which is to say i throw Jarate on the Maniac and back the hell up.

1: no i meant that the reason the charge has double-efficiency is that if the godmodder wins he gets them. they're at double effectiveness regardless of who wins, as long as the game is played. yes, charges are being created from nowhere, but since the Aiding-godmodder and opposing-godmodder sides are functionally in a zero-sum game, it doesn't really matter. 2: well, you managed to get me to exhale slightly more strongly then normal. +0.8 charges!
Deleter flashbacks while... the metal-eat thing???... happens, you realize you may have a problem: how are you going to get all the metal from wherever to the battlefield? maybe the postal service would be a good idea... "But maybe you shouldn't use the postal service! you know, one time I stole my friend the shield man's soul so he decided to give me friends and he tried to send me one in the postal service. there was a mixup in the mailing adresses and the box ended up going to super-Guantanamo bay and instead I got Jeff. Jeff from Cheesebread Cave. he was a jerk and all he wore was a giant cheesebread cave box. fun fact, turns out cheesebread cave is like a terrible offbrand pizza hut, except the cheesebread is amazing. the employees are terrible though. like jake. I mean jeff. I asked him to poison someones food with cyanide and he told them i asked him to while he was doing it. what a man, that Jeff. I mean Jake. Wait no i got it right this time. what a man, that Jones. I bet I'm being kind of annoying here aren't I? Well the thing is being annoying is like life for jeff, which is why he's always a snide guy who corrects everyone who says "Pizza" by explaining that all he has is cheesebread. cheese, on bread. sometimes with pepperoni. he plays the drums, but if you ask me he's just wildly bashing them. I think he might have been a demigod in disguise, which was probably how he got sent to super-Guantanamo bay, some higher-up got tired of him ranting about cheesebread. but Super-Guantanamo bay just can't hold that kind of guy, with his cheesebreads and his fashion statements. don't underestimate the power of being annoying for extended periods of time! it makes it really easy to distract people when they find your existance repulsive, or annoying. fun fact, wearing a cheesebread box and only a cheesebread box is a fashion statement. I got that from the internet. you know what else I got from the internet? internet humour!

If the sidequest does not start this turn I charge and add it to the quest reward
I begin nodding to suggest that I understood that garbled mess. Then I ask them what they want as payment.
I try and find out what is making that field, going around the perimeter.
"Ignorance is bliss, and you look absolutely miserable."
[Negation word] Existence (derisive)--> Caretaker. Absence (pause, considering of next word) Maelstorm (another pause) Presence.
a pause, almost long enough for you to think they're done. then, the eye shudders, and continues.
Impermanence (stilted, grudging) Acceptance. (Enthusiastic???) permanence (emphasis)->value.
you do that. what you see while looking around is collected in the following image:


you do not find the source or any hints, and so circle around to the front.
you also realize you have no clue how the field works (unless ooc you figure something out somehow). you know it somehow works on gasses, as there isn't any of the normal smog from the lava within. also, it is either selective in effect, or hollow, as the structures within do not look more durable then the spikes, but it does not harm them.
You are suddenly very aware that you look both very suspicious and very silly to anyone who looks in your direction, if anyone does. luckily, nobody did.

Alright, there hasn't been much for me to make challanges from this charge, but I've got a (probably terrible) idea for one now!
Find a way to spell charge that makes me laugh, somehow, or at least exhale out of my nose with noticeably more force then usual. hey, it's better then nothing.
you fire your key at the maniac!
"Hey, you must have some really bad memory, right? Yeah, it's gotta be terrible! Like I told you, that Key's heavy enough for me to avoid, Unless I'm unconscious that is! I mean, I told you about it 13 minutes ago, which is now the canonical length of this particular round, so I suppose you're just too scared to remember!"
...fair point, taking into account the maniacs insanity. the maniac dodges it.
woo?
yeah, the sidequest's going to take a while to get ready. it's really time-consuming to set this kind of thing up, but I Will ensure quality! Realism! Godmodder:And the Godmodders victory wait no not that one.
it is important to note now that charges from algot, if they're going toward the sidequest reward, can have doubled effect as long as 1) they go in a seperate 'SPC-3301' credit section, and 2) if algot declines the sidequest when it's ready (And nobody else steps up for it within lets say 5 rounds) you have to pay those charges back to reality.
remember, the SPC-3301 credits'll go to the godmodder if he wins, which is why they're doubled.
When i read this post the first time, i thought 'hm... should I let it work...? eh, maybe'. but then I got to the point when the maniac was attacked and one thing led to another and now this particular round will apparently last exactly 13 minutes. since at least 1/7 of this round is over by now for sure, it's too late for revivify. oh well.
Cuphead attacks the Maniac! The maniac look at the attack. he takes a step to the left. it curves to the left. he takes a step to the right. it curves to the right. he runs around it, over to Cuphead, and says in a terrible, raspy voice "Pal, I've played some terrible games in my life, but nobody beats yours" and slaps him hard in the face 10 times. Cuphead dodges 8 times, but still takes 4 damage from the two hits. the Maniac then shrugs to himself, before bonking Cuphead on the head with a frying pan (which Cuphead dodges), opening his mouth as wide as possible and sucking out Cupheads soul,Without making any contact with Cupheads body. Or mouth. Or anything related to Cuphead. Just in case. You never know with kids nowadays!
Sadly, The Maniac failed to take into account that Cuphead has sick dodging abilities, and Cuphead dodges. Again. As well, the chaser shot looped around while the Maniac was doing that and exploded his right hand, like a tiny explosive star-shaped tangerine which is colored green. 2 damage... the maniac then jams his knife into the stump, giving him the "incredibly" "intimidating" knife arm, and his hand gets up in the distance and starts crawling over to the battlefield.
The Godmodder nods in appreciation of the maniacs talent... at... getting hit... never mind, I don't know why he's nodding. maybe he's asleep? that's never safe to do when you're on a horse of dubious "existence" status. then, he snaps a tiny branch off the LOG GOBLIN ZOMBIE's log. and puts it back. and repeats the process several ti- help he accidentally build an ent!
as it turns out, the LOG GOBLIN ZOMBIEs log is an ent. hooray...! it's already 40 HP down, however, from Cupheads indiscriminate spread.
...then, the Ent uses 'Animate Tree'. as it turns out, trees are very deadly. you know how many limbs they have? like 40 at least! even with just 1 damage per limb, that's devastating...luckily, the trees around here, while fairly healthy, only have 8 or so limbs each. also, if you can get past them and kill the Log, they'll drop... or rather, stop being animated and be normal trees again.

I think I'll just double them when the game completes if the Godmodder gets them, and hold onto them as regular credits in the meantime.
Anyways, charge names?
Well, clunk, chargleblargleflarge, a chimpanzee come to mind but by that point it's just getting silly, and if I go so far as "chairge" Ire will probably come maul me with a piece of wood so we'll try those four and see if that works.

Seeing as the gun didn't work as I inventory it, i pull out the first attack I did that actually did Damage to the him. Which is to say i throw Jarate on the Maniac and back the hell up.
I came here to fight godmodders and chew bubblegum, and I'm all out of bubblegum
Something slithers out of a hidey hole near the metal, and begins munching on it.

I ad a charge to the game reward
1: no i meant that the reason the charge has double-efficiency is that if the godmodder wins he gets them. they're at double effectiveness regardless of who wins, as long as the game is played. yes, charges are being created from nowhere, but since the Aiding-godmodder and opposing-godmodder sides are functionally in a zero-sum game, it doesn't really matter.
2: well, you managed to get me to exhale slightly more strongly then normal. +0.8 charges!
Deleter flashbacks
while... the metal-eat thing???... happens, you realize you may have a problem: how are you going to get all the metal from wherever to the battlefield? maybe the postal service would be a good idea...
"But maybe you shouldn't use the postal service! you know, one time I stole my friend the shield man's soul so he decided to give me friends and he tried to send me one in the postal service. there was a mixup in the mailing adresses and the box ended up going to super-Guantanamo bay and instead I got Jeff. Jeff from Cheesebread Cave. he was a jerk and all he wore was a giant cheesebread cave box. fun fact, turns out cheesebread cave is like a terrible offbrand pizza hut, except the cheesebread is amazing. the employees are terrible though. like jake. I mean jeff. I asked him to poison someones food with cyanide and he told them i asked him to while he was doing it. what a man, that Jeff. I mean Jake. Wait no i got it right this time. what a man, that Jones. I bet I'm being kind of annoying here aren't I? Well the thing is being annoying is like life for jeff, which is why he's always a snide guy who corrects everyone who says "Pizza" by explaining that all he has is cheesebread. cheese, on bread. sometimes with pepperoni. he plays the drums, but if you ask me he's just wildly bashing them. I think he might have been a demigod in disguise, which was probably how he got sent to super-Guantanamo bay, some higher-up got tired of him ranting about cheesebread. but Super-Guantanamo bay just can't hold that kind of guy, with his cheesebreads and his fashion statements. don't underestimate the power of being annoying for extended periods of time! it makes it really easy to distract people when they find your existance repulsive, or annoying. fun fact, wearing a cheesebread box and only a cheesebread box is a fashion statement. I got that from the internet. you know what else I got from the internet? internet humour! I understand the kids nowadays, I'm not getting old, you hateThis has gone on more then long enough, so I'm just going to talk over him until he gets bored. I'll do it quietly though, don't worry about it.
