I meant it that way. The 'power two'. It is like all those terms Xion says, seemingly made up on the spur of the moment.

I use my power two to claim the page!

8:36 AM
Tangent takes a step towards the portal, and then another, walking up like on an invisible staircase. He stops next to the portal, turns, and motions to Risp. Risp, after hesitating for a moment, follows suit using a pair of jetboots. After going in, the first thing that Rspss Fr sees is... blue. The landscape is extremely blue. The sky, or is it a sky?, is pure, monotone blue. The ground, while being a brown, is glowing blue with energy. Once he gets over the blueness, Risp begins to see this landscape fully. The ground he is standing on is a large chunk of ordinary brown dirt, faintly luminescent with the immense energy Risp senses in this land, is bobbing gently in an imaginary breeze while otherwise seemingly suspended, gravityless, in space. There are dozens of other platforms around here, in all directions from where Risp is standing. The sky, for lack of a better word, is simply a blue glow- no clouds, no texture. The portal, behind him, is the most visible object here. Now spewing red at the edges, Risp is fully sure where it leads and is glad it is a very long-livid spell. Turning his attention back to Tangent, Rspss Fr sees that his head mage is doing an experiment. The cloaked mage is levitating his orb above his hand, and watching the energies of the place collide with the energies of his orb. Tangent turns to Risp, and starts to speak.
"There. I should keep the orb like that for a while. Now, I suppose you want to know about the chaos lands."
Risp nods. "You suppose correctly."
"Well good, because even if you said no I would have told you. Now, the chaos lands are rather special for an alternate universe. In some accident, I know not what, all the stars in it simultaneously went supernova. All the mana inside them was forced out, and held together some of the chunks from the disintegrating planets. These platforms we are standing on are some such chunks. The infinite energy released from the stars also killed those few creatures who survived the supernovas, mainly immortals and semi-immortals. The loose energies here are extremely useful for mages, if they can withstand it... Ah, the orb is done."
Tangent snaps his fingers, and his orb, now humming with blue energies, lowers into his hands. He puts the orb in his pocket and then turns to the portal.
"That energy should be useful... well, my work here is done."
Tangent leaves through the portal, closely followed by Risp, thinking over what Tangent said.


Quite wordy, but it needed to be said. Sadly, the next part will need to be wordy too.

Wordy nothing. Keep writing, this is getting interesting. Perhaps there is some evil force that wishes to use the chaos lands' excess energy to rule the universe? (not me of course XP)

Tangent, I bet, is thinking that, Lem.

Nah. To get that much energy Tangent would have to stay in the chaos lands for quite a while, and anyone who stays there for too long dies.

That's what the orb is for! Duh!!

If the orb is spending most of it's energy reanimating Tangent it can no longer store the needed energy to take over the universe, and neither can Tangent.

hm.

Well, there is a way that these energies can be channeled into taking over the world here...and I may be the only one that may have this idea.

Tangent...can I ask a question about tangent?


Is Tangent a planeswalker?

He knows spells for interdimensional travel. However, he lacks knowledge of how to rapidly do so (which is actually very low-level high magic), like planeswalkers do. Interpret this as you will, since I do not know the formal definition of a planeswalker.

Any person that can cross planes without any outside help (i.e. potions, machines, etc.) is a planeswalker. Lay that definition over Tangent and see if it's a match. If it is a match, then he is a planeswalker. If not, he is not.

Well, he can do it without any outside devices, but he perfers not to. I suppose he is.

Oh, and some more information about peeps-

A fully grown peep is about 1 foot high. A baby peep is a lot shorter, being the size you see the peeps sold in stores and such. Peeps live on a healthy diet of food coloring, sugar, and glucose. When fed the same color of food coloring for about a week, a peep will change to that color. The Peep Army takes advantage of this by feeding all the peeps of a certain class the same color of food coloring. As they mature, peeps learn to modify their marshmallowy form, mainly growing hands to handle things and such. Since peeps are not very comfortable in water, Peep Army infantry armor is resistant to water.

...Last time I checked, those two were one in the same.

http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=glucose&r=67

1. A monosaccharide sugar, C6H12O6, occurring widely in most plant and animal tissue. It is the principal circulating sugar in the blood and the major energy source of the body.
2. A colorless to yellowish syrupy mixture of dextrose, maltose, and dextrins containing about 20 percent water, used in confectionery, alcoholic fermentation, tanning, and treating tobacco. Also called starch syrup.

See?

Tasty. :9

So, would a water-based attack have any effect on the Peep Soldiers?

No, you would be better off with fire, which produces more spectacular results.

Thanks.


Peep Army + Prominence + Gram Crackers + Hershey's Chocolate = SMORES

SMORES + Me = FOO PRODUCTS

Well, you forgot two things. First, not all of my troops are Peeps. Second, I have anti-mage troops.

Anti-mage? Like Tangent?


haha...Did you fix Tangent's loophole?

Something worse, Xion.

More like Martin.

I don't need to fix his loophole, since
1. it is against the rules to exploit it, since it is entirely in it's wording =D
2. he won't be transforming into that form again D=

I'm talking about his Chaos Iron. So that's not coming out?

I wanna incorperate Glitching into this game...that'd be cool.

I know what you are talking about. However, by doing this expirement he lost his ability to become a chaos reaper.

If glitching was incorperated, you would loose one of your most damaging strategies.

Oh yes. the Antimatter cell.

No, I am talking about the running-around-faster-than-light stuff.

That's planeswalking.

Blink works like this.

1) portal is ripped right where Xion is standing, making him rift into a "temp" plane.
2) portal is ripped where Xion wishes to go, from memory. Xion can only blink to places he can see. So if he's in a fog, blink does not work.
3) Xion rifts back to the plane from the "temp" plane.

Since this is all magic on the stack of time, it can be done in a second. Though there is a "cooldown" of this, since Xion needs to regain his balance and his bearings on where he is in the current plane.

So, thanks to this cooldown, Xion can not blink twice within two turns. Twice in three turns, yes. Blink-cooldown-Blink.

So you are saying that the trick to having faster-than-light reaction times is to use teleportation...?

*nod*

That makes no sense whatsoever.

Well, that and a reaction-ability called "Reflex"

So, this skill that allows you to teleport somewhere with a cooldown and a skill that gives you enormously fast reaction times allows you to constantly run around faster than light?

yes. But Reflex prevents normal attack, not magic/abilities.

So if one of your units has like a freeze spell that stops me cold...literally...I'm open to attack.

I think I am going to stop arguing. Trying to figure out how knowing how to teleport and having good reflexes allows you run faster than light without creating sonic booms makes my head hurt. I think I will do some nice, easy to understand quantum physics.

Good idea.

Teleportation allows lightning speed. That's all you need to know.

Since teleportation seems to work on a per-teleport basis instead of a per-time basis, I would think that would just allow you one super-speed step before you would have to deal with the cooldown.

Exactly.

For example, here's an example of a battle sequence.

Risp Attacks Xion with Heavy Blade!
Xion uses Blink!
Risp Attacks Xion with his Overdrive Attack!
Xion is dead and crispy.

See, I can't blink out of an overdrive. So I need to use caution with the Blink ability, since I need a cooldown...my next action phase.

Don't worry, I have a failsafe for this too.

Edit: My error. I meant to say "I can't blink out of the second move, the overdrive." I can blink out of overdrives, but that's only if Blink is a readied spell.

Oooh. No wonder I was so confused. We were talking about something entirely different all along.

Well, I am happy most of my people's overdrives are spells.

Here is another species description-

Aghe (pronounced a-hee, or something)-
An Aghe is similar in size to a human being. They also have a similar outward appearance. The similarity ends there. Aghes have grey skin and can have eyes of almost any color. Their diet is mainly of meats of various kinds, though they also eat some fruits. They have achieved a nearly unsurpassed understanding of computers, and most of their society is computerized in some way. The orginization of the Cyber Lords is based upon them; all the Cyber Lords except Fia'onn is an Aghe, and most, but not all, of their subordinates (hackers, programmers, and roboticists) are Aghe. Aghes live an average of 150 years, though with the level of medicine today many live over 250.

FYI: The following Pokemon attacks can't be dodged, but they can be blocked if certain attacks. They are: Swift, Faint Attack, Magical leaf, Shadow Punch, Shockwave, and Vital Throw. Using Lock-On or Mind Reader before an attack also makes it never miss, and Foresight and Odor Sleuth(sp?) negate the targets previous evasion effects.

Just thought I'd let you know.

@Xion: Two things:
-Glitch would wreck everything in the universe as we know it,
AND
-Planeswalkers aren't the only one with ubersonic speed: In Dragonball Z, Goku can use Instant Transmission to warp from point A to point B in a heartbeat.

That isn't ubersonic speed. That is teleportation. The two things are totally different.

Yeah, but the speed of Xion's teleportation is, well...fast. Really, REALLY fast. I just hope it's not a Quickspell...
