Endgame

"Does the *wheeze* Regret even have a head...? I'm a Progg and even I don't *cough* know..."

Pictures coming tomorrow! Heading back to the discarded leech barrel, the party finds it completely abandoned - the horrid denizens had abandoned it, slinking off to unseen corners of the manor wing. Retrieving the rusted key at the bottom and depositing it into the locked door, they proceed forward, expecting another dilipidated room... But instead stride into a room eerily pristine. The walls were painted a bright white, wooden cabinets with glass doors lining the room. In stark contrast to the rest of the room was several potions and vials arranged in the cabinets, each murkier and more obscure than the last. In the center of the room was a large, cushy bed, recently cleaned but not recently used. However, despite the clean appearance, the bed smelled putrid omapred to the rest of the room. On the end opposite to the heroes is a door, with cleaning supplies next to it.

"Orel, he... He has made his choice. What other reason do we have for bringing him back? Unless you're planning revenge?"

QM Note: Seems like I should remember what I type up! It's inconsequential, he essentially just buffs himself a bit every round... Now: Round Five of the Amphitheater Showdown: >Mortimer VS The Heart (back): Special Damage (Nothing happens) >Masson VS The Heart (front): Critical Hit (15x2=30+50=80+5=85x2=190 damage) >Boomingham VS The Heart (front): Hit (14+32=46+4=50x4=200 damage) >Johon VS The Heart (front): Damage Hit (31+13=44x2=88 damage) >Johon VS The Heart (back): Steal Critical Hit (13x2=26+31=57x2=114 damage) >Jeaux VS The Heart (back): Critical Hit (13x2=26+21=47+52x4=208 damage) The party continues to barrage the heart, but it is a lightning bolt from Jeaux that fells the giant. As the electricty bursts through his chest, he lets a strained,electric gasp as his grip on his weapons loosen. They clatter to thefloor as he wobbles, the metallic beast eventually falling to his knees, propping himself up with his hands. The crowd, and even Seerus, watch on in stunned silence as they see their champion brought to his knees. "Heh. Eheheheheh. Not... Not what I expected... Even my little brother put up more of a fight, didn't he...? Did I suffer a fall from grace, heroes, or were you always better? I wanted to humiliate you... I wanted to be able to go up to that goddamned automaton - especially since he's struck the killing blow - and grind him to dust. I wanted to show him how foolish he was for refusing my offer. But look at me nw, huh?! I wanted to show you just how pathetic you are without emoion. But here I am, raging one moment, disgraced the next. It's pathetic. You may not be able to feel, robot... But I'm not giving you the satisfaction, either way. You'll look at my corpse and feel nothing. So, at the end of the day.. I can be content with that. Good night, everybody. This show is over..." With that, with a last burst of strenght, he heaves up his massive spear. Taking one last mournful glance at his battered heart, he plunges the spear through his chest, killing himself instantly. His body crumples into a mess of steel and metal, the red lights on his body fizzling away. Seerus looks on in awe. "But... That wasn't supposed to..." For the first time, Seerus looks unnerved. "At least... Not that... Quickly..." "Troops... We'll leave The Regret to sort out this matter. They'll be meeting our Master shortly, I imagine, won't you? Still determined to kill the unkillable, heroes? Heh... Heh. That's something to be commended on, besides massacring our champion. But, I'm afraid that I'm under orders to defer you to The Regret himself. So, with that... Everybody, flee, and leave these poor souls to their fates!" Seerus vanishes into thin air after he gives the order, the rest of the audience following suit. Those who cannnot teleport scramble to flee through side entrances, revealing the staircase up to the top of the Citadel. From there, they could access The Regret's Inner Sanctum...

QM Note: Ah, that was an artifact from when you held the barrel while the leeches were hostile. It should've vanished when you disposed of the barrel, I failed to delete it.

And that's a second penultimate battle of mine wrecked by Pumpkin Bombs.

QM Note: You'd heal all party member's HP by 50 - nothing bad! Sorry about that, B&P. "QUIET! ALL OF YOU! You think it'll be this easy...?! You won't live to see daybreak, that I assure you!

As the gloves begin to sink into the sewage, the hands lurch and grab the gloves, draging them to the exact position where they were before. The water becomes calm and serene as the murky gauntlets sink into the water, the voice echoing out one more time.

Lynne whispers to Leofwin. "Is this... The best idea? For what reason would our missionay remain in their settlement for so long, unless he's in peril? Who's to say they're not baiting us into a trap?"

I'm fairly certain thats how every battle works to an extent, Flipz. Also, if you're referring to 105 with step 3, if you check the math Seerus fled with 50-100 HP left. 2 exist, currently: One with the Ziegfrieds and the other got dropped by Tiamat back in 75.

It can be, but there are three ways to end this fight.

Both land mighty blows. Vindsval even manages to destroy one, electricity surging through it as it sank back into the depths... Only for the horrid muck to amass together once more, and rise up from the sewage, another hand sprouting to replace the fallen one. The water ripples and surges as the cacophonious voice of Isaac calls out from somewhere, his voice now sounding more desperate and afraid than angry... "PlEasE, iT huRts... tHat hUrts, iT bUrns...

QM Note: Hope everyone had a happy Thankgsiving! Mine unfortunately was far more eventufl than I would have liked, to put it mildly, thus the delay...

QM Note: And... We're back! Well done solving that puzzle. Round One of the Amphitheater Showdown: >Alice gives Masson her invisibility cloak >Masson uses the Heartbreaker on Monolith Alice hands over her sister's invisibility claok to the white clad, pale skinned paragon. "Be... careful with it..." Masson hoists up the Heartbreaker before draping the invisiblity cloak over his head, stepping behind the steel collosus as the Mk II is fixated on the other heroes. The party can see him shift under the cloak as he creeps around the machine, avoiding the gaze of the Monoloids as the Mk II lets a barrage of slashes loose against the party of heroes. When Masson notices a slighty pause in his movements, he runs in front of the Monolith, stands straight up, slings the Heartbreaker over his shoulder, and lets loose. The blade impales itself in the gaps between the Mk II's ribcage before detonating an explosive that blasts open the ribcage, sending some scattering into the crowd and sending others hurtling into his heart. The machine recoils in pain, howling... He speaks in a mocking, violent tone. "You think you're SMART, don't you. You think you're CLEVER, digging through the junk heap, putting that hellish contraption together. Don't you? DON'T YOU? IDIOTS! Weren't you ever told to not to commit suicide? Didn't any tell you not to anger those who could outright MURDER you in a single step? Didn't anyone EVER tell you to not f*ck with forces beyond your RECKONING? Well... It doesn't matter now. Since you clearly don't know WHO or WHAT you're F*CKING DEALING WITH, allow me to make myself clear: That, dear heroes, is the last mistake you will EVER make in your pitiful lives. Now... DIE!" Seerus continues to announce for the bout. "The battle has hit a fever pitch, folks - The heroes have driven the Mk II wild! Then agin, I think we all know he's the type of person who fights better royally pissed off, eh?" The audience whoops in agreement. The Monolith Mk II launches himself with a newfound fury at the heroes. "This is FAR from OVER!"

"What reason would they have for taking you prisoner, exactly? Cultural, or did they have alterior motives?"

Been busy, 105ers / 115ers - I had a lot of personal stuff to tackle. Updates tomorrow morning.

"Smoke bombs aren't enough to cut it - the room is too big, and the smoke won't be thick enough to block their vsion. If doing something to them isn't going to do it, do we have to do something to one of us?"

They utilize the weapons in different ways. Hand atack = Crushing the opponent with the shield/Hitting them with the hilt of the spear, Weapon attack = Shield bash and actually skewering the opponent with the spear.

"As long as he sees us - and he's guarunteed to, as long as his drones are alive - we can't use the Heartbreaker to pierce his ribcage. We need to either kill the Monoloids, or find another way to evade his gaze."

"If you can do us a little song and a dance after Mk II rips off your legs, we'd be very much impressed, young lady." "Hmm hmm hmm. If that's how it's going to be, then... I think it's time to show you that pride can kill, Boomingham. Mk II, are you ready to put on a show?" "I believe I am. Heroes, we have a score to settle. You think you'll walk away from this alive? Any of you? You'll die for nothing more than the amusement of this crowd! En garde!" The Monolith Mk II lurches forward, both collosal weapons in hand. His red eyes flare as four of his drones dive out from the crowd, joining the steel giant in combat. With a roar that can be only described as the howl of a steamboat, the save Mk II dives into battle, bloodlust flooding his every thought. Prepare For Battle!

When the heart is destroyed, the battle is won. Weak Heart: ??? (Will be revealed after the heart is exposed) In The Red: ??? (Will be revealed when the heart hits 1000 HP.) Note: As soon as the Heart is impaled, the round ends, nullifying any free hits that may have occured as a result of the heroes' strategy. Drops: Steel Core Right Hand, Level 75 Mechanical HP: 350/350 SP: 3 Immune to Blindness! Specials: Shieldcrush: The Right Hand presses its shield down on the hero who rolled Special Damage. If the sheild is not targetted twice in the following round, it'll crush that hero entirely, knocking them out instantly. Tremor Fist: Monolith Mk II smashes his fist into the ground, causing the hero who rolled Special Damage to be flung into another random hero. Both heroes take 75 damage.

Drops: Nothing Right Cannon, Level 50 Mechanical HP: 350/350 SP: 3 Specials: Spreadshot: The cannon fires a barrage of shots, causing four random heroes to take 30 damage. Daybreaker: In a blinding flash of light, both of Monolith Mk II's cannons combine their might into one shot, instantly knocking out the hero who rolled Special Damage.

Passive Specials: Quickscope: At the end of every round, the cannon has a 1/3 chance of becoming Hastened for the duration of the next.

Dark Gaze: The Monoloid shoots a beam of light at the hero who rolled Special Damage, doing 60 damage. Passive Specials: Watchful Eye: Any attempt to use Heartbreaker on the Mk II will fail as long as he has Monoloids at his side, as they will alert him of the assault and allow him to dodge it. However, perhaps there is another way of avoiding the Monoloids' gaze without outright killing them...? Drops: Nothing Monoloid B, Level 50 Dark HP: 200/200 Specials: Alert!
