Anstane

So, fighting Souta, managed to get the field down to the Mountain field and used Blizzard. It turned the field to Snowy Mountain, only the field was completely black. The actual bug comes after: Mega Pidgeot used Heat Wave, which should have turned the field to the Mountain field. Instead, it turned the field straight back to the Sky field.

Fighting Sensei Vivian on my Ice Mono, it came down to my entire team vs her Mega Alakazam. She traced A-Tales' Snow Warning, but Hail did not start to fall. The previous turn, Hail had stopped falling, so the weather was clear.

The battle I spent the longest on was Kiki on my Ice Mono. Fuck Meditate and fuck Strength on that field.

As Darius' wrathful rage fades, he sees Helena take a nasty hit from an enemy Shaman and flinches, both from the dark magic's impact and the fierce retaliation. He runs up to her and starts treating her injuries. "Tch...are you alright? That looked like it hurt." [Move to J10, equip Nosferatu, use Vulnerary on Helena.]

Alright, with how close I am to the end with my regular team, figured it's time I signed up for X-League now. S2 HoF'er, so I can do this.

Yeah, the sidequest to get the Mega Z-Ring only becomes available after defeating Titania.

The only real piece of OCD'ness I have is that I always try to have at least one Ice-type on my team.

As the bloodied shaman opened his tome and cast his spell, his wrathful side took over with a blood-red glint. Out of the tome, a barrage of dark tendrils slammed into the bandit, embedding themselves into his body. The brigand would feel a bit of pain for a moment...before excruciating agony overwhelmed him, so quickly and fiercely that he didn't even get a chance to scream. Blood-red energy and fluids started leaking from his body: The penetrated spots, his mouth, even his eyes bled. All of said energy and blood, siphoned away by the shaman's magic, coalescing into a flow of misty energy that flowed into Darius' form, mending his wounds and revitalizing his body. A few moments later, it was over. The dark magic pulled back into the tome as the corpse of the bandit fell to the ground, completely dessicated, drained of all blood and other life-sustaining energies and liquids while Darius' own body was rejuvenated. Such a scene would definitely leave any other enemies wary of facing the shaman's wrath. As the spell ended, the blood-red glint in Darius' eyes faded as he was no longer in such a wrathful state.

"Graah!" Darius staggered back before falling to one knee from the strength of the bandit's thrown axe, leaving him bloodied and horribly wounded. After counter-attacking instinctively, he looked over his body and the feelings of pain fully washed over him. His breathing intensified. The look on his eyes became one of raw anger. "Pain...rrgh...you...prepare to suffer...as I have...only infinitely worse." the shaman hissed out at the bandit, a blood-red glint in his eyes now as he took out his Nosferatu tome and opened it's pages, having stood up. Despite the blood freely flowing, he was in a wrathful haze now, ready to destroy the fool that damn near struck him down. Equip Nosferatu, Wrath-attack Bandit 4.

Darius felt a rush of energy come over him from the bard's music. He turned to him and thanked him in thanks before heading back to regroup with the rest of the group. Move to K11.

Nah. Spine?

Yeah, it's been pushed back to Neo Reborn city because Gardevoir was deemed too commonly used and too powerful for when you get it. Want to use Gallade? Sucks to be you. Believe me, I'm not happy about that either, considering I consider Gallade better than Gardevoir.

Darius moved forward, continuing to try and stay at a relatively safe distance from the enemy combatants, not really sure if he should push forward or not much further. Move to L7

Sorry, I missed it. I'm doing...alright, I guess, Spine. You? That is also the predict.

Hello! Spine?

Sorry, just me. Noobly?

Darius sighed out as soon as he saw the scavengers take up arms against their group. Of course. Of course they would be hostile. He eyes the battlefield and notes the large concentration of physical units and, to his surprise, enemies wielding elder magic, like his. He opts to stay at a relative distance from them, close to his own allies for now. Move to N9, equip Nosferatu, hold.

Darius was left completely flustered and confused. Why is Rayne doing this to him? He looks around in utter confusion. "Erm...I don't even know how to answer that, to be honest..." he stammered out.

"Just discussing the past and future, mostly me explaining how I got here and thinking what my future holds, if I actually have one, with these elder spirits and all..." Darius explained.

Well, I obviously can't complain about the results, though I still maintain that I did the correct thing by staying out of this, honestly. I am glad to see my favorite win, though I have to admit I am surprised Sylveon made top 2 considering how Fairy was immediately focused down in the Type Hurt/Heal.

Who knows? I mean, the core is still the forums. Spine?

Darius flinched in surprise when he heard the crash and turned his head towards the source before noticing that it was Rayne. He then looked a little awkward as she placed her head on his shoulder. "Uh...morning, Rayne. Are you okay? I heard a loud crash."

"Who knows...guess we'll just have to see where fate takes us and what we'll end up encountering..."
