Meaningless Battle III - This Time It's For Real (Game Topic)

Find and reread your character, please: some things may have changed.

With nearly twice as many players as the first Meaningless Battle and those players divided into teams of two, the game is bound to be an enormous success, or simply crash and burn. Restating the rules:

1) All rounds begin at 11 PM CST and last 24 hours. Get a timezone converter, I guess; if you played in previous battles, this is one hour earlier.
2) Players begin with 2000 HP and two actions per round. You may use any of these three actions or the same action twice. These actions can be used to Attack, which deals 100 damage, Defend, which reduces damage taken by 50% until the end of the round and must be the last action you take in a round, and use an active Special Ability; Special Abilities can deal damage or alter the rules of the game.
3) Editing your post after you've taken your actions is not allowed under any circumstances; don't think I won't notice. This won't go unpunished, but if you need to cheat in a forum game, you've probably got bigger problems in your life anyway.
4) Play with honor, and remember that rulings are subject to change at any time.
5) Stay active, and trust your partner. Good luck.

*Speed's My Game: Sonichu's attacks deal a meager 80 damage. However, he has a 50% chance to start the game and begin each round with one or two bonus actions!
*Asperger's Bolt Barrage: Deals 80 damage; this ability is considered to have occured at the beginning of the round. Can only be used once per round.
*Zap Cannonbolt: Sonichu slashes a target with his spinning spikes, then attempts to finish them with a final, Mary Sue-esque blow! Uses all remaining actions to deal 85 damage to a single character for each one. At the end of the next turn, that character will take 200 damage unless they spend an action to avoid the strike!
*Thunder Rage: Whenever Sonichu uses four actions without being the direct target of an attack by a player, deals 10 damage to all characters. The damage of this ability doubles each time it is used.

Black Hole Sun Soldier
In my eyes, indisposed, in disguise as no one knows, lies a face, hides a snake, and the sun in my disgrace. The Black Hole Sun Soldier hails from the Sigmatic Plane, where he is a tactical mastermind in the Omega Sect; his power lies in speech, and with few simple words, he can entice an army of people he's never met to fight alongside him. It is, at this point, unknown as to why he has joined this battle.
*Rising Sigmatic Force: As time goes on, the Soldier bends reality around his opponents to destabilize their defenses! The damage of the Black Hole Sun Soldier's normal attacks is passively increased by 5 times the number of rounds that have passed. In addition, any player who attacks him while he is defending will receive 25% of this damage.
*In My Eyes: The Soldier points out the benefits inherent in attacking another foe. The target of this ability must accept the offer before the current round is over; they may choose to deal 180 damage to another player without using an action. If they accept, that character and their partner may not target the Soldier for two rounds, and any damage they would do is nullified.
*Matrix Alteration: Can be used once per turn. Does not take an action. Choose one of the following effects:
- Increase the damage of the next attack to hit the target by 50.
- Heal a target for 50 HP; if that character attacks the Soldier this turn after this move is used, half the damage is inflicted on themselves as well.
*Won't You Come: If the Soldier is not targeted directly by any effects, positive or negative, for three turns, he will cause a small antimatter star to appear over the battlefield. He may use an action to drop the star on a single player, dealing 375 damage. This ability can not miss, and can not be avoided by being in the jungle.

SilentShot
A shady ninja that enters the battle in hopes of mastering a forbidden technique! His abilities involve deadly stealth training combined with the manipulation of fire and lightning!
Special Abilities:
*Exploding Decoy: Uses 2 actions. Plants an exploding decoy with 300 HP that cannot attack or defend, or receive any status effects. Each round, the decoy will absorb the first action to target SilentShot; At the end of the round the decoy is destroyed, an explosion will occur, dealing 120 damage to the person who destroyed it. Only one decoy may be active at a time.
*Dragon's Flame: Targets a character with a blast of flame that deals 50 damage. That character will gain a level of the status effect "Enkindled"; Enkindled stacks up to 5 times, and for each level of Enkindled the target has, this ability will deal double damage to them. The target may use an action to douse the flames, removing this effect, however.
*Taunt: Taunts an opponent, inspiring SilentShot; restores 50 HP, and boosts his Limit Gauge by 30%. Can only be used once per round.
*Thunder Breaker: When SilentShot's Limit Gauge is at 100%, he may unleash this technique, reducing it to 0. Deals 150 unblockable damage to one target and knocks them to the ground, causing them to start the next round with one less action. At the end of the next round, they will take an additional 75 unblockable damage; they may use an action to prevent this, however.
*Limit Gauge: Whenever SilentShot deals damage, or takes 100 or more damage from a single hit, his Limit Gauge rises by 10%.

Round 1 begins at 11 PM, in ~4 hours.

And a whirlwind course on items:

They will appear randomly; I will post them, and the first person to post *take item* or something will grab the item. Grabbing items does not take an action, nor does dropping them or giving/trading items with your partner. Any specific rules regarding items will be in the description of each individual item.

That's about it.

Game on.

Its time right?.....

Possessed Mage:
Use Illusion
Illusion, attack Juggernaut

Zanzibar Hotek:

*This Day's Black Fate: on Sgt Zombie

*Convulsion of Destiny: 200 HP on Sgt Zombie

( *Destined for Greatness: Mr. Tophat starts with 1800 HP, and has no maximum. In addition, at the end of each round, Tophat flips a coin twice and gains 50 HP for each head. Is this used automatically at the end of each round and doesnt count as one of my actions right?

Camwhore: Give Possessed Mage a private show
Defend

Yes, that's passive.

SGTZOMBIE is under the control of KZ POWNED, by the way, I think.

Warwick: Use Infinite Duress to jump out of the jungle and grab the medic, and pull him screaming back in.

Then use Hungering Strike on the Medic.

Also voodoo buddy how much health would it take for your partner to hurt this guy

Attack on Possessed Mage
Zap Cannonbolt on Possessed Mage

Well Mr. Warwick... Since we can negotiate your payment and you're my partner... I'll say you don't have to pay any HP for me to use Hoodoo for hire on The Medic here.

Also I'll use me second action now.
Use normal attack on the Medic.

LOL.

Isn't that exactly what you were trying to achieve by attacking Juggernaut?

Attack: Mr. Tophat
Chaos Cyclone: Mr. Tophat, Possessed Mage, and Juggernaut.

Stasis Lock Black snow

Medic:
- Leave Jungle
- Defend

Also might I say that fucking Hoodoo attack is total bullshit. It doesn't even cost an action, and they're allowed to "negotiate" it for free? That means they can attack anyone for 250 damage every round without even using an action or losing HP... AND they gain discipe tokens in the process too?!

Yeah. I was unaware it could be used for free; that's the only reason I was, until now, okay with it. I didn't think that anyone would be able to enjoy the benefit of completely free, high damage attacks. As such I'm just not going to count that use...

*Hoodoo for Hire: Another warrior may negotiate a payment with Zanzibar (normal rate: 100 HP, this may be negotiated to as low as 70 and as high as 150) for him to either heal any character 150 HP, or to use his magic to attack another player for 150 damage and a 10% chance to inflict Zombie status. Any warrior who uses his services gains one Disciple Token. This does not require an action on any player's part, but can only be used by each player once per round, cannot damage the same character twice in a round, and cannot occur more than three times in the space of a round.

On topic: An item has appeared on the battlefield!
#34 - Vengeance: An incredibly well-forged sword with supernatural abilities. This blade adds 25 damage to the holder's basic attack and allows them to use the following ability.
*Revenge: Fueled by the sword's dark power, the user enters a rage and hunts down the last person to harm them. The last person to damage the holder of this sword takes 200 damage that cannot be blocked or raised. This ability strikes the target so hard, it shatters the blade.

Take: Vengeance
