(IR) The 3rd IR, Turn 7 (thread 2)

To: Venus

You do know that Alzem just has to agree to a full prisoner exchange and he'll be back at 100% infrastructure, right?

Edena: Let us know when the last point is for holding attacks please.

Serpenteye

A Shade that you recongise as High Prince Rivalen Tanthul, Archpriest of Shadow, aproaches your Domain in Mechanus, wishing to speak with you. He bows before God-Emperor:

-Your Majesty, I would like to inform you that there are many Shade, led by myself, that understand the fact that Melkor is leading us to oblivion, that understand the need for PEACE in current situation. If Union Of Worlds help us with 11th level magic, we shall be able to easily dispose of Melkor. Than, Shade under new leadership will destroy all of their Red Goo and fully ally with Union Of Worlds, we will also try to bring Iuz and Hellmaster to this alliance. Than, Union Of Worlds will be mighty, and Alliance Of Oerth won`t risk war with us. I have heard about this city of Peace you are creating, we shall aid you in this task. So will you help us?

We've already been betrayed by the shade. What tells us this won't happen again? Also, exactly what help from us did you desire?
 

If you have declared an Attack for today (Day 3) and you wish to Hold that Attack until Day 4, NOW is the time to tel me. E-mail me with this information.

If you wish to make an Attack today (Day 3) and you have not yet declared it, please do so immediately.

- - -

Melkor, you are successful in corrupting the people of Calimshan, Amn, and Tethyr.
Calimshan, Amn, and Tethyr. immediately declare independence from the United Commonwealth of Toril, and become a single indepedent 11th level Power, under your control.

You must now state this new Power's Attacks and Defenses, please (if you do not, I will.)

The Black Brotherhood announces it will coordinate it's Attacks with the Shade, to produce the most devastating result possible.

- - -

Alzem has not yet agreed to a prisoner exchange.
He is rapidly running out of time to do so.
A reasonable amount of time I will allow for such decisions. However, I will not unduely delay the IR, waiting for Alzem to make up his mind.
He has until tomorrow to declare what he is doing with the prisoners.

- - -

Due to the massive aid flowing to Anabstercorian, he is able to repair the damage to the Penumbral Hub.
Unfortunately, those killed cannot be returned - there is no return from Death by 11th level magic.

- - -

The damage to AnaKeris's geography was very minor.
The damage to AnaKeri's flora and fauna was severe, but nowhere near the magnitude of the destruction wrought on Oerik.

Zouron is able, today, to restore AnaKeris's geography, and bring back it's natural flora and fauna.

The efforts of many Powers pays off - the atmosphere of Oerth clears completely.
For the first time since the Bombardment, the sun, moons, and stars are fully visible on the surface of Oerth.

It is a sad sight, though.
The sun still shines in hues of purple and mauve, casting a weak light across the landscapes of Oerth, creating a reddish sky.
One of the moons, Celene, is still blue-green in the sky.
However, the other moon, Luna, is now a lifeless sphere of Sunstare, all it's continents and oceans buried under that layer of illithid metal, all it's people, flora, and fauna long gone.

- - -

Forsaken One's efforts to pacify Athas are going well, although civilian casualties are higher than expected.
The Dragon-Kings are on the run, as is Rajaat.
They lost half their forces yesterday, and have no 11th level magic to defend themselves against the assault or the bombardment coming from the Scro Star League.
They refuse to surrender, and vow a terrible revenge on the offworlders who have destroyed or ransacked their holdings and their coffers.

Forsaken One does not need to pacify Mystara - his forces are greeted with cautious friendliness on Mystara by the peoples there.
The peoples and Nations of Mystara are curious as to what the Formians are doing here, what their goals are, and what they are about in general.
Very few Mystarans agree to assimilation into the Hive Cluster, and almost none wish to leave Mystara.
However, many are eager to learn the lore the Formians would teach, and many are intensely curious about the Formians, about the other worlds, and about what is going on - most of the people of Mystara really do not know what is going on.
There is great awe if the Scro Star League shows up in force with it's interstellar ships, and certainly there is awe at the 11th level magic the Formians wield.

- - -

MELKOR ... you are in for a disappointment.

You just discovered that the Siobhan you captured, was a simulacrum.
A simulacrum, disguised by 11th level magic, to appear as the real Siobhan.

(This information was sent to me privately several days ago, prior to Siobhan's capture.)

Thus, Melkor realizes his threat against the Alliance of Oerth was in vain.

- - -

ANABSTERCORIAN ... Project Pi was an attempt by the Alliance of Oerth to murder Anabstercorian.
The Lortmil Technomancy had located Anabstercorian through technical means, had zeroed in on him, had managed to produce Sunstare weapons and armor and disguise themselves, and were closing in for the kill.
I was preparing to rule on the effort, in fact.
However, the Shade attack on the Penumbral Hub killed most of them, and those that remained were detected (ruling by DM) by the Knights of Neraka when they wrought their 11th level defense.
Brought before Anabstercorian, interrogation reveals the facts, for him and all present.
Project Pi was initiated with the help and approval of the Alliance of Oerth.

(If the Alliance of Oerth wishes to contradict this, or if this information is somehow incorrect, please state so IMMEDIATELY.)

TO KABOOM

Kaboom, you have now completely restored the Isle of the Phoenix (it was a gaping crater in the ocean, thanks to the Bombardment.)

The Isle's natural geography, flora, and fauna, are restored.

The Red Goo has been completely banished.

The alternate Isle of the Phoenix was not touched by the Bombardment.
Any Red Goo that might have been there is gone, and the Alternate Reality is now safe from the threat of Red Goo.

Also, with your 11th level magic, you have restored the undersea nations that surrounded the Isle of the Phoenix.

With your 11th level magic, you have managed to resurrect those killed in the Bombardment and the War.

The Isle of the Phoenix, is living up to it's name.
 

RULING BY DM

(The DM chuckles rather darkly - it is not Yours Truly that is responsible for the below, nor is it Melkor either)

Someone has figured out how to collect the thoughts of people.
These thoughts, once collected, can be compressed into a physical manifestation - a small ball of light.

Or of dark, if the thoughts are evil thoughts.

These Dark Balls of Evil Thoughts are popping up over the heads of people everywhere.

The following Powers are under attack in this way:

Every Power in the IR (whoever is doing this, is attacking their own Power to prevent discovery.)

- - -

The Balls of Evil Thoughts are attracting the Mists of Ravenloft - indeed, that was what they were specifically designed to do.
The Mists, once attracted, come and take that particular person away ... to Ravenloft.

Thousands of these Dark Balls are appear, randomly, here and there, across Realmspace, Greyspace, Krynnspace, Athas, and Mystara, hitting random people, causing them to be taken to Ravenloft.

And no, you cannot discover who is sending the Balls.
11th level magic was used to protect from discovery.
 

Dueling

Edena You mean that Draco/Serpenteye get their power doubled up from Oreth and get to use 11th from the power on Toril? So each turn they get 12attack/defend?

<< Murderer. >>

Anabstercorian gazes over the shattered wreckage of the Penumbral Hub, shaking his head.

<< He killed them... He killed my brethren. >>

<< I am a fool and a hypocrite. I have brought upon myself what I have wreaked upon others. No more. Never again. No more genocide ever again. >>

<< But REVENGE... I have time for revenge. >>

A little black ball hovers above Anabstercorian's head, feeding off his rage.

<< Prepare to die, Melkor. For I will hunt you, and I will abuse you, and I will defeat you. >>

He lifts his latest project, the last item to survive the attack by Melkor - the Starfire Cannon. A Substare rifle the size of a giant's shin, each bullet a hydrogen bomb, detonated within an 11th level forcefield, projecting a beam of screaming hot fusion energy. (Imagine that gun that Fortune lugged around in Metal Gear Solid 2, except so powerful its just patently absurd.) Crackling with psionelectric power, he steps through a Gate, and vanishes, leaving an empty world behind him, a mere shadow of its potential and its past.

===============================

11TH LEVEL ACTIONS FOR TURN 3, PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE

Attacking Melkor with Level 4 assault
Defending Knights of Neraka with Level 4
Using Hour Long project to create the Starfire Cannon and make it compatible with Shadow Weave magic, increasing Anabstercorian's PL by 15. Additionally, IF I get the True Staff of Ancient Penumbra, it can be locked on to the Starfire Cannon to greatly increase its power, so that my power is boosted by 300 for the Staff, 15 for the Starfire cannon, and another 20 for the synergy bonus.

A message is sent to Anabstercorian, Gnomeworks

My dear Gnomeworks, my friend Anabstercorian. I heard your bad news. My upright condoleances. Anabstercorian, I also heard the damage done to your people. It is not right. I am offering you, and you as well Gnomeworks, shelter. The Emerald Order will provide shelter for all. The only thing this offer for shelter demands is that you put down your offensive weapons. Do not attack anyone, not even your greatest enemy.

I am awaiting your replies to this offer.

Angelika, Lady of the Order."

To Angelika, from Gromungand of the Knights of Neraka: We will send the survivors to your shelters, but I'm afraid that pacifisim is out of the question. Melkor must be punished for his crime, and punished greatly. Mina would want us to do this, and even in death we will obey her.
As for Anabstercorian... We... haven't been able to find him. He's vanished. Please, if you find him, be careful. We don't think he's in his right mind.

OOC SECRET TO EDENA AND ALZEM, SORRY I'M NOT E-MAILING THIS BUT I'M DOING THIS FROM SOMEONE ELSES COMPUTER, DO ME A FAVOR AND DON'T READ IT OR IF YOU DO READ IT DON'T ACT ON IT, BUT YOU MIGHT AS WELL READ IT SINCE I CAN'T STOP YOU AND IT REALLY DOESN'T MATTER VERY MUCH EITHER WAY.
Edena, Alzem. Anabstercorian has popped up in your territory. He demands to have the True Staff returned to him so that he may take vengeance for this infinite insult to the Illithid race. The Staff itself is burning with psionic hate and fury and wants to make Melkor DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE!!! Or something. Anyway, can I have it back? He'll 11th Geas himself to return it later if you want.

Edena what happens if,

Sanctus looks at a little fluffy white ball floating over his head. "What is this thing?" He touches it.

And, if black balls gather mist, do white balls repel mist?

11th level action for day 2: Restore the damaged soil in my lands and forests. I also want to grow forests in those spots with any "left over" forest energy I have.
Above is the repost of my action for day 2.

Oh, and for my Day 3 Action I will raise all my NPC's PL by 10. (one hour action for 160 PL... nice)

Edena - about Project Pi...

You never responded to any emails I sent you, when I started it up. I never got a response, so I assumed that you had not received it or was not taking it into account, and therefore I was not thinking about it. I had thought that it would require a lot of feedback between you and I to work that out, so I assumed that you were going to email me again with the results of the Project, or at least an update on it, via email.
