Ire 1 Zalgo looks confused. Then, a look of sudden understanding crosses his face, before contorting into a painful grimace.
The sword in his hand shines darkness, somehow, looking EVIL, with all caps. It
1 summons and equips Zalgo with black plate, piece by piece, with him yelling in pain. The helmet comes last, and with a final clunk its red eyes start glowing.
Cough.
Azastre watches the sword armor Zalgo.
Herm.

The second stage is activated.

Kahn charges at Zalgo before he is fully armored.
3+8+2 vs
4+4=
5 damageHe pulls his weapon free of Zalgo's body before the armor encases it. He watches him being reinforced, painfully and perhaps independently of his will.
Ace 5,5 Two bullets locked and loaded!
1 Ace is answered by a deep, haunting voice that echoes strangely, like two people with guttural voices saying the same words one beat off sync.
"
YOU SHALL BURN."
Zalgo swings at Ace with eeeebil blade!
4+4+4 VS
3+.5=
8 damageAce presumably cries out in pain. His wound
1 blackens and starts to smell like it has festered.
Arianna3Reply: "
RRARRGH"
However, being rather busy slicing up Ace, Zalgo doesn't hit Arianna, yet.
Arianna also observes the crystals Jack is hoarding.
2 Well, they are perfect, but the markings of departed and or tortured souls won't make for good jewelry.
+3 to Gem Appraising if you want. :3
Jack 4 chucks a good-sized crystal at the armored freak!
With the shriek of ten robbers attacking twenty children who are wielding explosive pineapples infested by voracious bookworms, the crystal resonates with the magic of Jack's wand and amplifies his attack (roll) by twice.
4x2 + 9 + 3 vs
3+7=
10 pineapple-a-riffic damage.
The pineappl- erm, crystal shard smashes into the back plate of Zalgo and shatters into many pieces. The back plate also shares the fate of the crystal and shatters. Defense -.5
Zalgo roars in pain.
Rod stabs Zalgo.
That did his attack as much justice as describing a dragon as a lizard with extra appendages, or as describing a human as a monkey with less tail. He lunged forward with his great sword, piercing some part of Zalgo's black plate and digging into his past-present flesh, then knocking him a few feet across the floor by sheer will. Come to think of it, that didn't do justice either. To sum it up, it was [
SOMETHING AWESOME, WITH MOUTH WATERING DESCRIPTIONS WORTHY OF THE CHILD OF JORDAN OF WHEEL OF TIME FAME AND TOLKIEN OF LORD OF THE RINGS FAME AND <insert famous talented author> and <insert famous talented author>, NEVER YOU MIND THE FACT THAT THERE CAN ONLY BE TWO PARENTS OF OPPOSITE GENDERS TO A CHILD].
6->6->6->4 + 4 + 1 + 3 vs
6->3 + 6.5 =
14 damage.
Rod gains knowledge of a new technique, 超天攻軸!* What it does is unknown for now.
Rod sacrifices 1 HP and tries to teleport Zalgo outside.
3 Zip! Using 1 HP, Rod sees lots of
this and
this, and feels the revelations represented by
this.
He feels the bright sun, the cool wind, the gravitational gravity, and the cheery feeling of 1 HP being drained. What to do?

Hehe :3 Can't say I didn't enjoy writing this up.
