Exhausted and terrified soldiers flocked in from the battlefield, and many of them looked spooked enough to keep running when they saw Kay looming above the camp, holding himself in the air with only his armor. Crusader General Eahn began ordering officers about from his sick bed with a level of confidence and force that surprised almost everyone. Commander Ravenhome began to approach several leaders who looked mutinous, and after a few quiet words in their ears, they suddenly became incredibly supportive…-

With each footfall, the otherworldly leg warped everything around it. The air warped around its movements as the pure power the limb brought with it from its own reality fought against Torotia’s reality, the changes emanating out like ripples that twisted and crackled before fading as Torotia’s laws of existence snuffed them out. As the flat foot at the end of the leg landed, the area beneath it was forcibly warped into something new, trees dying and turning to ash while the geography suddenly changed…

The vampyr stood slightly elevated from his thralls as they worked to carve the sigils given to him by the Powerful One. The leader of the vampyr had given him a task, and he would see it through if only to gain from it and grow strong enough to overthrow the Powerful One. His thralls continued to carve the sigils properly as he watched, and the vampyr went back to trying to think of a new name. His goal was the pursuit of true power, and his most recent name had been discarded in that pursuit. Each name…

“Wait, wait.” Scarlett grabbed Maeve’s shoulder and pulled her back from the door. “What do you mean? This System thing that’s popped up is fucking up our lives, and now it’s messing with our brains?” Maeve looked around at the group before responding. Amelia looked queasy, but Maeve wasn’t sure if it was from the topic or the events surrounding it, Ed was getting more and more worried by the second, Scarlett was obviously concerned, and Alex was stoically watching in the direction the…

The point of the golden lance passed over Kay as he ducked under it and rolled away from the reptilian beast Glowl was riding. The Blood Guard attacked while Glowl focused on Kay, a range of melee, ranged, and magical attacks lashed out at Nelam’s king. Most of the attacks bounced off his heavy armor, but a few of them elicited a response from the king. His gauntlets expanded, forming massive plates. One deflected a heavy axe that grew in size as it started coming down, and the other caught a burst of…

Kay slammed into the ground, momentarily restraining himself from making a superhero landing while he did, and started striding forward after his army of simulacra. Technically, they were made with the Create Blood Army Skill and not Create Simulacra (Blood), but he was going to keep calling them that as a whole to save time and effort. The red soldiers pushed the invading army back step by step, winning through absolutely atrocious suicidal tactics that would never work with real people. Soldiers could…

Four red dragons battled in the sky over Avalon. Blasts of flame from the scintillating ruby dragon blew the blood-red dragons apart. His death-defying movements allowed him to grab the blood champions and tear them to shreds, and the insides of the three blood champions would suddenly swelled up, and they would burst into pieces, raining blood across the landscape. The sheer difference in power seemed to have the battle entirely at the whims of the real dragon and his rider, but that would be if one…

“Dammit,” Kay muttered as he watched the almost-frothing orc descend in his direction, axes raised high above his head. Eleniah stepped forward, pushing Kay back with one arm, and caught one of the axes by the handle just above the orc’s hand. With his momentum stopped, Eleniah quickly shifted her grip to his wrist and swept his legs out from under him with her foot. When she’d gotten him airborne, she tossed him off the side of the platform before he could react. His guards pushed forward,…

An uneasy murmuring rumbled through the assembled army at the base of Avalon’s wall. Most of the soldiers and leaders that had been recruited expected the campaign to be an easy fight they could half-ass their way through and reap glory from. It didn’t matter how easily you won if winning was a big deal, right? Very few of them had expected Avalon to have any fortifications at all, and the few that did hadn’t expected a wall that wouldn’t shame major cities in the more developed nations. It…

Crusader General Stonegnawer Eahn rode his construct behind ranks of soldiers, roughly at the center of the loose gathering of leadership for the campaign he led. The riding construct was one of the few luxuries he allowed himself while on the job. He’d been riding ponies for years since the height of a horse was a problem for a dwarf his size, but as a leader, that wasn’t a very impressive image, and cultivating one's image as a general was important. Personally, he didn’t think it was that big a…
