"Raven vs. Morganna" By Ravensyntix666 (https://pastebin.com/u/Ravensyntix666) URL: https://pastebin.com/RbJ257a7 Created on: Monday 27th of January 2020 01:37:41 AM CDT Retrieved on: Saturday 31 of October 2020 11:45:56 AM UTC AleraMistLancaster: -Morgana was a typical human character from a typical family home, living an ordinary life like any normal individual up until the point her family stumbled upon an ancient burial site during a business trip her father had to take to the arid lands of Egypt. Inside the crypt laid objects of fantastic and dark magical power and ever since, her family has been cursed with the Tomb Keeper’s lineage to use those magical items to protect the Pharaoh’s tomb. Morgana herself was given a Millenium Ring that adorned her neck like an amulet. Made of enchanted gold and unbreakable so long as the magic remained intact. The dark power these items possessed were unique to each item. But Morgana’s specifically was by far the one with the most taint and corruption as the wearer’s mind slowly begins to split into twin souls….a Dark side which feeds on the other light side of the original mind until the individual becomes fully possessed. Along with this came the curse of those not powerful enough to control it's dark influence. Upon wearing the ring, those unworthy would find both their flesh and soul burning until the ring was removed. One feature that all of the items possessed though was the ability to call upon a darker dimension that they referred to as the Shadow realm. A world devoid of natural things, like plants and animals, the typical atmosphere was replaced by a choking smog that quickly fed off the willpower, mind, and soul of anyone who stepped inside, including and especially the user. This is also known as territory; territory is a power used by most psychics. Once someone's territory is active it enables their psychic abilities to work only within the area of their territory. Anyone caught in someone's territory when it was activated falls subject to the psychics territorial powers and follows the rules of the territory. Despite it's terrible risks, it gave the user great power to summon powerful and ancient monsters, along with powerful and forbidden spells. Typically these had to be channeled through some kind of medium like a stone slab or painting for the full design of the monster or effect to take place ...Morgana kept on her belt a deck of 20 cards, each one symbolizes a certain being or spell she could use in junction with the shadow realm making them real...otherwise, outside of the place...they were just normal cards. She stands at the edge of the dojo arena, her mind in a parade of emotions as she struggled to maintain control of her own body. The eye in the center of her ring was glowing bright, brighter and brighter as she tried to fight it off. Suddenly and inexplicably the choking black smog of the Shadow Realm began to fill up the room from the bottom of her feet, light in the dojo would be sipped away slowly as the room got dimmer and dimmer along with them came echoes of tormented voices. The echos would permeate with a chime of disorientation and displacement as air molecules vibrate and shiver. The enclosed space made it impossible for this echo to extend much farther than the walls of this dojo, but this only meant the entirety of the building would now fall under these specific contracts. A zone is created, one that supersedes the fluctuation of space/time, a temporal distortion is formed, one powerful enough to merge realities. Soon the dojo is filled with living smog like entities, harmless for the moment...but very very hungry in it's true nature. Morgana eventually had no choice but to give in, the spirit of her ring was simply to powerful and her mind was split in twain. A glowing eye insignia emerges on her forehead as thick veins stressed around her eyes. A maniac of a smile decorated her expression as she laughed to herself. From the deck of cards, five would lift from the pack and hover around her waist. “The shadows are hungry….time to hunt, hahahahahahaha!”- RavenBlackPhoen1x: Raven had been at the dojo not too long till he had already came across the leader of the Fighters Guild he has been hearing about. He has been seeking a good fight from anyone really; it always did him too to face those better than him. Raven never knew what he was about to face maybe something far more than he maybe able to handle really but typical Raven of course. As he had been leaning on the pillar just within the small like arena which was now turning in to something of smog and not just smog but something he has never came across. He breathed in slightly through his mouth and let out easily as he had just begun lowering his heart rate down 20 points; which allowed him too ease and relax his entire body as he pushed off the pillar uncoiled his arms that had been crossed over his chest all the while the smog became thicker as he slowly turned and face who it and maybe facing. He did remember how the Dojo looked and where the rooms were he did keep that in mind but who knows if those were to play a part in this cloud of death…" Gawd damn…the stench." Holding his sleeve of his black leather jacket over his nose but lightly pressed as he would get use to the smell soon as he had a keen sense usually able to get use to most smell but not all some were far more but this stench was something else almost otherworldly like but he wasn't so sure. His black boot tipped with valeryian steel tougher and stronger as it had the same properties as dragon scales which was grained and melted in to the steel itself as his jacket and pants were lined with it in several areas. ( chest area upper torso, for the jacket, and pants hamstrings front and back of his thighs, and his back calves in case you needed a thought on.) Along his waist was a four layer belt strapped with 3 daggers on each side plus two extra separate daggers holstered to his hip and one extra stuffed in to his boot of his left ankle. Raven was not like most beings he was created through forbidden romance much like vampires and lycan's but his was way worse as he was of both black phoenix and Elemental phoenix; which allowed him too control the four elements earth, water, fire, and wind. His skin was of black flames like a cloak but it hide what he truly looked like and it was his one well weakness was just that alone; he did have control of using his skin of flames as source of explosions which to him was a double edge and had a way of using it to his advantage when to most it was a disadvantage. He had the ability to use his own very blood he has maintain too use in a fight. Raven silvery eyes looked around shifting hoping to see who was about as his pointed ear twitched to the sound of a sadistic like laugh. Raven grasped the handle of his katana as it was about 42" long katana which is the usual length of most from tip to pommel and the blade was 28" long. Before he readied himself he reached in to his satchel that was strapped to his left inner thigh and grabbed one of the 6 white orbs that contain watts of electricity that was about 100,000 voltage seeing as he has gained a usage of being able to handle such power with his own body only he has been able to discharge such voltage from him a she placed the orb in to his mouth and placed it under his tongue for later use. " Well shall the fun begin….seeing as I only here laughter….make your move." AleraMistLancaster: -Despite the darkness of the dojo, the moment he allowed himself to fall victim to her territory he would no longer be in the dojo. The pillar he was leaning on was now absent, and should he attempt to flee to a wall or familiar structure he identified in the light, he would also find it missing in a seemingly endless black void. As he moved around it was literally like moving through thin water, the choking sensation didn’t come from poison or taint. The atmosphere was just thick and stuffy, moving through it would prove annoying if not stressful to anyone who wasn’t already a resident even Morgana was visibly burdened. The smog around him would pass him by as they weren’t actual shadows but ethereal beings themselves, thriving in this putrid ecosystem and devoured light as if it were a midnight snack. They would prove to be harmless for the moment, even if they passed through his being it was like watching a ghost pass through a wall unphased. Even Morgana had no real control over them. “Kekeke, unfortunately for you...the shadows are on a very tight schedule and they need to get back to work by 9-o'clock.”- Immediately another card would be drawn from the pile on her belt adding to the floating ones around her waist making six in total. Out of those six, two of the cards would spin violently before enlarging, one of them simply became a yellow square on the floor at her feet. “I place this face down, and I summon!” -The second card would also enlarge, but instead of becoming a light like the other, it would form into a three dimensional doorway where a truly gruesome monster awaited. It's deep breathing could be heard before it fully emerged from the dimensional gateway. “Dark Jeroid!” The monster’s mutated shape was in full view within a small handful of seconds. A dark bluish torso attached to a long under body that reached up to seven feet tall with four arms and four legs, it resembles a centaur but with terrifying features. A pulsating sack where it's face should be and a face where it's dick should probably be and twin pincers that stretched outward on it's back. The light from its eyes glowed from behind the smog before quickly being snuffed out. Ontop of all of this, the doorway it had come from would also remain ...from it's cracks released a horrid ploom infecting and severely weakening everything it comes into contact with. One didn’t need organs or an immune system to be affected either, it was a spiritual attack dampening the power of their very being. Acting almost of it's own will the smog attempted to surround and engulf her opponent. Margana chuckles admiring her own grotesque creature. “NOW ATTACK MY MONSTER!!!” -The Dark Jeroid would lunge ahead surrounded in a silhouette of the incapacitating ploom before threatening to lunge in and sink it's twin pincers through his chest- RavenBlackPhoen1x ((interrupting post)) Raven had been trying to pinpoint the voice of the female as she was speaking he had keen sense of hearing and he wasn't about to be caught off guard in this place as he knew he had walked in to an area which is no longer the place he was now at. He took the moment she was speaking too pinpoint and found out where she was and not that far it seems as the place seems to go on forever but that was only to those not use to such places as he quickly pushed off the ground grasping the katana at his waist he pulled it free as he made the attempted to slash at the card that was now being used as he hopes he made it in time too cancel whatever she was about too activate as he had a weird feeling. He was not about too underestimate her at all; though he did have two choice either the one being activated or the one face down but he chose the one being activated as it was more of one he was not about to give her a chance at most but of course it would give her an open coming in close to whatever she had down on that ground he can make out the lining of it. AleraMistLancaster: -As the first of her cards spin around, her opponent is quick to waste very little time by dashing inward and striking the second card just before it finished being summoned. This was severely unexpected as most of her opponents hesitated in the dark. As the card was destroyed, the image of the monster would appear sliced in half before shattering into holographic shards and before it could create it's debilitating fumes. However, by doing so he would prematurely activate the card she had already managed to place face down. “Mask of Weakness!” In the monster’s place just as it faded away a horrific voodoo mask would now be in its place as it lunged forward attempting to force itself onto the man’s face where much like the smog of her creature, would simply drain him of strength and stamina. Another card would draw from her deck, adding to her four and giving her a total of five to work with again. She would let another one spin around as she herself turned around and attempted to make some distance between the two of them again. As the card hits the ground next to him another strange creature emerges...however through the darkness the hum of a loud demonic motorcycle would quickly come alive. A massive green humanoid creature which seemed married to it's bike would emerge, in it's right hand it wielded a circular blade which it could spin around and throw from a distance. Along with this came it's special ability, if Morgana’s trap was successful at attaching itself to her opponent, her Diskblade Rider would be given then extra stamina and strength. From where she stood now, she called out for it to attack him. Screeching tires would fill the void as the demonic cyclist threatened to simply ride past him to where it could slice at the back of his knees, should he be unable to avoid it.- RavenBlackPhoen1x As the card had now just activated the moment he cut down the one card this one was of a mask as it suddenly smacked him in to the face at the same time feeling some of his strength and stamina being drained he ripped it off him just as he heard the loud rumbling sounds he has never heard of as his ears twitch to the very sound and stood there as he waited for it to get closer not knowing where it was aiming or coming at him; but he did allow himself to be open. Raven waited at the right moment for the sound to get closer...as it was at the moment he pushed off the ground at the moment of the attack just by a the skin of his legs he managed too leap over the rider as he now got a clear look at it from above as he twisted his body about and smirked as he had twisted his left hand just now black like sparks began too ignite in his palm as he uses his skin too create a explosion like within the length of him being in midair and the rider just being underneath him if connected the explosion would send Raven flying across the endless void several feet of course but the rider and where the head was at would if anything either have come out unscathed showing how tough or simply being damaged by the sheer force of the explosion just from Raven's hand alone as the force of it was just that of a tank firing at a bunker and the impact would be that of imploding from within and out causing a double edge sword effect not just on the one using it against but the one using it would cause bleeding and two dislocated fingers the pointer and ring; while leaving Raven smoking from the ordeal if it all made contact. AleraMistLancaster: -Another card would fly from her pile and join the swarm around her keeping five. All the while the tussle between her monster and her opponent took place just several feet away. Morgana would place another card face down next to her, where it would appear as just another outline. Before she could place another card down however, a loud explosion would come from their direction. Morgana winced and grabbed the side of her head as the skin around her face slightly cracked. “Ack…” Such a powerful attack would normally have been more than enough to destroy her DiskBlade Rider, however thanks to the strength it managed to steal from him it would just barely survive as it was knocked off it's bike and flung at Morgana’s feet, barely conscious and smoldering. Another card would land to the floor, and activated right away. From the summoning would emerge another creature, with four faces as it's actual body, each one expressing a different yet extreme emotion. A seemingly plane creature at first glance, however it was only the precursor for something far worse to come. Morgana was aware at just how trigger happy her opponent was and how quick he would be to return and retaliate. She was prepared for another sudden attack like before as she looked down at the floor towards the outline next to her feet. “With these two creatures on the field, I’m allowed to make a special contract.” A third card would spin around from her pile, leaving her with only two left floating around her figure. This one would create a much more massive doorway, where two equally just as massive claws would emerge from the ground and drag the two creatures in front of her down under. A light shone which was quickly snuffed away and from the darkness came a large hunched beast. Standing over 17 feet tall, it would shake the void with each step it took. Having three faces in total, one upon a long thick neck and one on each shoulder. Six red eyes pierced the veil of shadow and glared directly at him, armor like skin and a mean growl would identify this creature as a problem for most. “MY ULTIMATE CREATURE, MASKED BEAST DES GARDIUS!” Morgana looked up at her creature, unable to see in the dark herself she knew however it could. “Kill him” -The creature despite it's size was able to make up it's speed by running forward on all fours, the ground shook with each gallop and it would soon close the gap between them in no time as it aimed to slash through his body. If successful, no physical wound would actually appear nor would the attack itself hurt ...only where the claws might make contact would there be a gleaming light that emerges from the ‘wounds’ if successful.- RavenBlackPhoen1x Raven staggered as from earlier he had been flung himself due to the explosion he set off; as he was smoking but which soon cleared up he slowly stood up as blood dripped from his dislocated hand where he had two dislocated fingers but the blood was coming from a wound on his palm itself. While he getting up and not noticing the charging sound and the void itself drumming and shaking he barely noticed the over looming shadowy look coming at him from a distances till he rolled out of the way causing more blood too drip out as he quickly stood up and leaped backwards several spaces letting the blood drip in his place leaving pools of it as his eyes watched the looming mass that came at him. In Raven's mind he finally got the idea of what he was up against it was magic or a form of it just those cards that swirl about her are how she attacks but yet like a game of chess. Raven thought to himself as he has to be careful now and plan his next attack and if not just that be several steps ahead of her. " Well now not like she is defenseless other than that mask she attack me with i say it was a trap set and ready when she wanted it so i need to be aware but question is how many cards does she have to use?" He stood there watching the mass as he readied himself for another and keeping his senses open all the while blood kepted dripping from his palm as he twitched both hands this time while pulling the orb from his tongue and placing it between his fangs as he waited. AleraMistLancaster: -Another card would card would join her two, giving her three on hand and leaving her pile of cards with a remaining eleven cards. However, at this point, her best creature was already on the field as it was she wouldn’t lay anymore cards down for the time being. “You missed him! Attack again!” -She shouted as the creature stumbled before managing to turn around and charge after him again, however this time slowing down on approach with the attempt to slam him to the ground. It's weight would be felt for sure, but again no damage...just light seeping through potential wounds should her monster manage to land this attack successfully. Crossing her arms, she was beginning to wonder when this man would grow tired, the smell of blood in the air was fresh now however and Morgana raised a brow to this scent. Since none of her creatures could actually draw blood in this realm, her mind processed for a moment…. “Wait a second…..” but her creature would already be coming in for the strike before she could call it off.- RavenBlackPhoen1x Raven had the monster right where he was needed in the line of sight of the blood trail he had left and directly underneath and in front of himself as well. Smirking as he let the looming mass tackle him to the ground doing so he grabbed hold of the beat and spoke in a language only his own clan would know as it was there native tongue; " Verda druk sil." With those words being used and no element in this void well blood has only one element within it's mass mount. Raven being pinned it was the perfect shot in killing off this beast as the water from the very blood he spilled not on purpose but it did provide the perfect setting as the blood pools rippled then launched forward while shaping in to dozen or so like needles the length of which would be the same length as his katana he had lost within the void about 28" in length; as they came piercing her creature if it should have somehow missed by pure chance Raven would follow up with his upper torso giving off black like sparks as he would set off an explosion in which would crater the ground from which he lay but leave him truly bloodied and if possible the beast burnt like a holiday turkey but with a bad taste to it. AleraMistLancaster: -Another card would join her pile as a slam would be heard from across the void and Morgana smiled. “Got him” -Instead of broken bones, lacerations, his body would simply shine a powerful light around pieces of him which would have been damaged by the impact of such a heavy creature. However he was quick to grab hold of her monster and set off his own trap, a rain of blood needles would forge and fall attempting to puncture her Masked Beast from all sides. It's sturdy hide proved impenetrable in some areas, but other more fleshy parts weren’t so fortunate as her creature was still severely stabbed in several places at once. Light would shine through each wound on itself and those light wounds would also appear upon Morgana herself. She looked down at herself “WHAT!?” Without much warning, a storm of shadow creatures would swarm the area. Latching onto Morgana with phantom teeth, they would devour the light coming from her body but as a result with each bite would tear another piece of her own essence and mind away. AAAAAAAGGHHH!!!” Her screams could be heard coming from deep within the void as it was the same as being eaten alive by mashing teeth, however she would raise her hand with what strength she had left revealing her face down card. “Half shut…” It was no trap, but instead a quick use spell. A bolt of lightning would shoot from the card, destroying it and zapping her Masked beast. This would weaken her creature by half its original strength, but it would manage to survive the attack. Morgana herself was half way gone, as parts of her physical body seemed to have been devoured by the shadows themselves. Her opponent however, would also meet a similar situation as Morgana; the shadow creatures came in like a swarm, ripping and tearing away at the light his ‘wounds’ from her beast had created. No physical damage beyond the excruciating pain of being eaten, but instead a total attack to mind and soul (should he have one) each bite tearing away at his essence breaking him apart as pieces of him would also simply be missing and lost to the darkness without the blood leak. Morgana falls to a knee, panting and struggling to maintain focus before placing one more monster on the field in a defensive stance in front of her. From the card, a small greenish metallic ball would emerge. A single robot eye would open as twin arms carrying a steel crossbow would spawn in front of her. All the while the Masked Beast would raise it's arms again, however with a clear visible burden in doing so...it was almost pathetic compared to it's previous self. But would attempt to slam it's claws back down on top of him should he be for some reason, unable to move.- RavenBlackPhoen1x Felt the gnawing teeth rip at him but it was more spiritual then physical which had no pain but he was not about to be gnawed at by these things as he set off an explosion in doing so would counter her beast who was just now about to attack with his now half size; as he countered both the gnawing teeths seeming too come at him in spirit way and the beast from other side gave the best way to free himself; pulling the orb from under his tongue he crunched on it as he tended too cushion the damage the and minimize the damage to himself he was about to create he needed an outside source too lessen the blow as he knew he was not done yet. Raven feeling the surge of electricity surge then discharging at the same time he began too let of a sadistic like giggle of a laugh that sounded more of a little girl hiding why she was murdering the adults type. if countered and connected both the creatures and the beats both should be blown off him and if anything within the explosion should kill the beast at best as he was not wanting to keep using this move as it was not one to use constantly. If everything connected and countered the right way it would allow Raven too slowly stand up within less wounds but part of his skin blown off but it would be more of cloak of flames flicking over what would be underneath a faceless like mannequin like thing underneath that should have a face. AleraMistLancaster: -A simple explosion might have been enough to keep her Masked beast at bay, shattering it in the process even. However, it would take something a bit more otherworldly to keep the shadows of this world from getting what they want, even if the first wave was somehow stopped more would simply emerge from the void’s depth to devour all light possible. His ‘wounds’ would continue to emit this light, and the shadows would have their dinner one way or another. Another card added to her stack and as her masked beast vanished, Morgana would feel more of her stamina draining though despite this she smiled. “That shadows are going to love having you for lunch….” One of the masks on her now destroyed creature however remained and split open revealing a monstrous face. This terrible mask was the trump card of Morgana’s strategy, despite losing her most powerful creature her eyes were still filled with fire. Not the look of someone in a desperate situation. Quickly flying towards him, it would attempt to attach itself to his face much like the Mask of weakness from before. If successful it would latch on tight and begin a process of converting him into one of her many creatures. All the while, her Bowganian despite being in a defensive stance still had it's weapon trained and aimed on the main. Aiming for the moment he attempted to dodge and firing a steel bolt capable of penetrating soft armor towards where it would predict him ending up after a sudden evasive maneuver to avoid the mask. Likewise, should he defend or deflect the mask, it would fire upon him doing so. Morgana was pretty confident in her checkmate here...so much so she hadn’t even set down another card.- “You will belong to me...or the shadows, pick your poison.” RavenBlackPhoen1x Raven not knowing he was being trained on from her one card near her so he would have no idea if he was being targeted at the time if he so much as moved he wouldn't know it; but for the mask that just appeared and seemed to be one just like the one before but it was different as it now tried too come at his face and not knowing he was being targeted from behind he hadn't moved yet but stood where he was as he caught the mask with his own hands as half his face was gone but he had a feeling what this thing was about to do as it had a simple fucked up face it was no stealing type mask but a mere control. " Seriously think I let you control me...then maybe i been going easy then huh." He held the mask while trying too keep it from his face in doing so the struggle was so intense it cause him to turn all the way around as he knew where she was at the whole time and began running not knowing the creature targeting him would start taking shot at him feeling the bolt hit him as it grazed his side but a deep graze as he was in constant of holding the mask back as he was heading towards her way. Raven began too raise his body temperature up after feeling the bolt he knew he could raise his body heat and the flames rising off his body in response too the heat now rising at the degree of 1,000 which would began starting too spread in a outward like pulse with each step he took as he struggled with the mask the more it came closer the closer he would get as also each bolt would melt to the heat. RavenBlackPhoen1x: (( interrupting post)) During the time she had spoken out shadows began to gnaw on him as he used that pain now that was hitting him even though it was spiritual it was hurting as he used that moment to rush her with mask in hand not as a last attempt he was not that type unless he chose but this was not his way out; but he smirked as he held the mask now as he gotten use to the strength of it and held it like a shield as he deflected each bolt just at the edges of the mask carefully pinpointing the wind current and the voracity of the ind it carried as in the void there is no wind but there is always a current from it being released. Raven gotten within two feet and leaped up as he attempted too stomp a foot down on the bowman's face if it should connect the impact would not destroy it but simply keep it at bay while he would follow up with giving a sadistic laugh as he began too let his body spark up as black flames began crackling and popping before he set off a huge explosion while sadistically laughing as he would attempted not a suicide but a simple fake out as he would expect her too dodge or try and get away he would make it seem the explosion would be a lot larger than that as he tended to give off a bluff while he was focusing on the blood that was all over his body; " verda sni sul schiender." As he would voice those words out at her. AleraMistLancaster: -He was indeed tough, so many wounds and being basically tortured by the shadow realm wasn’t enough to put him down. Despite his attempt to rush her however, the sudden attack of these shadow creatures at his side would be enough to slow anyone down. As he approached, her Bowganian actually never fired a second or third shot, it held onto it's ammo for a much more precise and well timed attack. Morgana would set another card down just as he leaps off her metal creature’s face and high into the air. She would stand to meet him as he would hang in the air, her own Mask of Remnants however was a constant pushing force...the moment he leapt from the ground he was no longer grounded against the attempt on his freedom from the mask. And instead would be pushed backward away from Morgana, his explosion would still take place and even engulf both herself and her metallic monster as he was flung back towards the ground. However as the flames from the explosion dispersed both Morgana and her creature remained in tact. And through the smoke a small robot furball of a creature would evaporate from sight. Activating directly from the cards swirling around her figure, it would effectively neutralize the flames by forcing the flames to surround Morgana in a defensive matter rather than an aggressive attack from her opponent. She smiled, and as he chanted in the distance, he would be met with twin steel bolts hoping to strike him during his wrestling with the mask still, regardless if they hit or not however Morgana would summon another creature before her. A hovering masked shaman would appear before her taking on a defensive stance to protect Morgana as Bowganian would begin reloading for the next round should he still have the will to keep going. The once desperate look Morgana had given him earlier was a ruse to drop his guard and get him to rush recklessly, however he proved smarter than expected and maintained a careful approach. Now the facade was over despite half of her being lost to the darkness, there was nothing but the most evil of smiles complimenting her insidious golden eyes.- RavenBlackPhoen1x Gritting through teeth alone and sheer will power too overcome the pain his entire body was feeling it was a good thing he set off that explosion from his body making it seemed he had it set good thing he went ahead on that plan as he was breathing rather heavy now and sweat dripping he has never been pushed to this point as he would think to himself. " Well i say this women sure is good but damn i need to finish this other wise its cat and mouse right now so one last ditch effort..." He smirked as he kepted an eye on her as he was thinking to himself too make sure she wasn't going to pull anything on him; but he noticed she was not herself but a more evil side now showing. He gripped the mask tighter as he began walking towards her way as blood dripped off his body in pools now most of all the wound on his side causing more blood to pool out which was not a good or bad sign but depends on who sees it that way. He decided too give her an opening and see if she will take the bait as his skin began too let off heat waves at intervals of pulses. The pulses emitted at his feet but the flames began too burst outward like snakes smelling for prey all the while he walked forward as he spoke out at her while holding the mask at bay seeing if she will take it. " Well i got to say women you sure as hell know how to treat a guy to having some fun eh." He spoke out loud before he set his face to a serious outlook without giving any hint of what he was about to do as more blood was dripping and pooling the more he walked; and the pulses getting stronger the heat becoming hotter as the temperature began rising as it was at 500 when he started and now as he gets closer hoping she takes the bait the core temperature he was now at 900 of course to him another ruse but for now he wanted to give every thing he got if she took the bait as bled out more. AleraMistLancaster: -Another card added to her pile but most of them wouldn’t make much of a difference as her set up was complete already. For now she could simply harass him until he was finally ready to give in to the darkness around him. With the Mask of Remnants still pushing against his weak body, he had very little strength it would seem to bum rush the scene any longer with this aggressive constant keeping part of his attention. Bowganian would use it's twin crossbows and deadly aim to shoot at both his knee caps. Should he attempt to jump or dodge, the Mask in his hand would knock him back over once again due to the sudden lack of grounding. If successful they would once again create the light wound, where a swarm of shadow critters would seek to devour what remained of his leg joints forcing him to fall over and be easily overwhelmed by the Mask. This would also be able to pass through his heatwave unscathed as the melting point of steel is 1370 degrees C (2500°F) much much greater than his peak of 900 regardless if its Celsius or Fahrenheit. Plus the blood his body was leaking all over the place would never actually make it to the floor unless it's super heat resistant as blood boils and evaporates at 37 °C (99 °F) much much lower than the current temperature he is surrounding himself with. Perhaps self sabotage? Or battle fatigue had made him forget such a flaw in his current strategy. But there was much about this creature she did not know ...but hoped to soon understand and have all of his powers for herself by adding him to her collection. All the while Bowganian would reload as Grand Tiki Elder continued to defend, along with the outline still set by her feet. “You are mine!” -She said through her toothy grin.- RavenBlackPhoen1x She fell for it just as he had hoped she would and most al everything he was doing was all a ruse the heat and he knew his blood was not hitting the ground he was aware of it but he had her fall for it. Raven took every strength he was cabale of mustering and dropped at the moment the twinbolts were perfectly shot out and he knew where as the wind of the release of the bolts gave him what he wanted; as he dropped he aimed the mask he had been battling the whole time and held it out in time for the bolts to shatter it while letting them graze his cheek barely and almost taking his head off but merely grazed his cheek. Raven breathed fully as he was now and fully drained of all he could muster and couldnt go further he had used ever trick he could think of as he slowly staggered too his feet and looked up at her grinning like a fool. " Heeeeeeey....weeee dooone....I am tired you damn coon....that mask took everything i had and it was about time you took the bait." As he said that he flopped on to his ass and began too slowly breath as he now had to see what she will do either keep it going and go for the kill or simply let this one go and we call it even either way it was up to her he cared not he had fun.
