-He went offline once he captured me, I am out until hes back on unless someone shoots his dragon down, but noone do that. I wanna get in and do some kobold-magic and see if I cant escape with some firebrand.  -

We are already back at the citadel.  The one in the "home" realm.  Pulled out of your realm for a while.  The network is remaining behind in their hiding places across the world, and the portal to the home realm was shutdown until I return, for I brought the only activators with me when I planeswalked.  Oh, and the scorpion elf is with you.  Anyway...

When the scorpion elf and Corai were before him, Zanzetkuken began to speak.

"What I am about to tell you is true.  Within both of you is something known as the spark.  On its own it does not do much, but when it is activated, it allows you to travel between realms and use powerful spells.  When I recently fought a planeswalker named Nicol Bolas, a dragon with the goal to enslave all realms, I used a dragon-shout with my own spark, which, along with other things, activated your own sparks.  Mine activated long ago, but time would be relative due to unforeseen effects.  Anyway, what you have seen me able to do was accomplished by the spark, a force known as mana, which the spark utilizes, and another item.  Before I continue and tell you what it is, I have to ask, Do you want to utilize this power?  Actually consider it, because use of it makes you the protector of your realm.  You must answer the request of it for help.  For your realm is the source of your power.  If it dies, you lose your power, but if you die, it is unaffected.  So I ask again, Do you want to utilize this power?"

Spoiler: mana usage colors (click to show/hide)

The elf I would say is green/red. Red due to the freedom and vengance he wishes, and green for being and elf.

Corai will need to take the test below the spoiler for his planeswalker colors.

I use red, white, and blue.  That is only marginally affected by my nationality.

"Speed has never killed a soul.  Suddenly becoming stationary, that's what gets you." ~Jeremy Clarkson

If one started moving at the speed of falling in the time it takes to stop from a fall, the same G-forces would be there.

Stillness wouldn't have killed you. Suddenly becoming fast, that's what would have gotten you.

Ah, but motion is relative.  Let's say you're hit by a car; from the car's perspective, you were flying towards it at fifty mph, then suddenly came to a stop when you crashed into its front bumper.
Anyway, back to stuff.

I made another key.  Even though I haven't heard back from the Mks. VII and VIII, I'm going to go ahead and start up the X.  Here goes...

[The G-Body Mk. X begins to whir as the key is inserted into the ignition slot and turned.  Suddenly, its eyes spring open, and it opens its mouth to speak.  With baited breath, Gizogin leans in to hear its first words.]
X: It worked, then?  Sweet.

The Supersoldiers made first contact with the guards near the outskirts of the Citadel. It was a small patrol, and the rookie sentries were far from the elite. The genetically engineered constructs destroyed them with ease. Ignoring the halberd slashes and simply charging through their feeble breath attacks, the supersoldiers grappled and broke limbs with ease, choosing not use their ferocious claws and teeth. In a minute, it was all over, and the silent soldiers refocused upon their primary target.

(Oh, and Zanzetuken and his troops already killed all my regular cyber agents, before they even reached the Citadel )

I step away from the control terminal, and I go over to Hyena and Gizogin and we start drinking Dwarf Cola and eating delicious dragon tallow roasts.
"Thanks for the spare metal and blueprints, Gizogin. Couldn't have made the supersoldiers without them." Gizogin simply frowned in response.
Hyena was frowning too. He pushed the cola away.
"This doesn't have enough of a bite."

[It's time to squash oversized arthropods, remember? I say we take our great magickal and mechanical knowledge and produce some tools o' war to help deal with all the shit that seems to have it in for us. I'm thinking cybernetically controlled body extensions like power armor, or even as far as spider tanks controlled by a pilot that is neurologically linked. With a little use of the Secrets of Life and Death and of Mental Thralldom I can easily set up necessary links between the mind and inanimate objects. You could then design mechanisms that function as limbs. Ridiculously complex, but you did just make the Mk. X.]

You'll need the secrets of inorganic grafting for that, and those were derived after years of scientific study on aspects of both druidic magic and necromancy.

Hmm... I suppose inorganic grafting may be useful, but the primary function necessary is the binding of a mind to an object, not the body, and the combined secrets of Life and Death and Mental Thralldom offer enough control to at least make a temporary bond between the mind and an object not physically connected to the body by anything more than friction. After all, you don't want the tank trying to walk off after the pilot has left it just because the pilot themeselves is walking. That would just be awkward and get in the way of maintenance work that may require it be online.

You know those are modified Gizogin Mk.VIII bodies made to look like dragons, right?  The actual dragons pulled out, and your supersoldiers could not reach the main citadel, due to the inability to planeswalk, or have the ability to activate the portal, because it is finely tuned to specific crystals that cannot be in your plane, due to the fact that they are from a different plane known as Dominaria, which you are not at.  So any attack upon the only one you can reach is useless!

Wait a sec, Dragon Tallow Roasts!  War has been declared on Mrhappyface!

Don't flatter yourself, I am not sending a siege, not yet.  I decide when it will be, but it won't be a siege.  It will be far worse for you.

Why did Gizogin give you some blueprints?

[Mrhappyface]

Whoops. I guess I just killed some straggling guards then. So my supersoldiers are just scratching my heads, wondering where the rest went. I just borrowed Gizogin's blueprints without asking. Don't worry, I put them back.
Also, it's going to be quite interesting, a mortal artificer against a demi-god dragon. But hey, Yawgmoth wasn't a planeswalker, and he was able to capture, experiment on, and kill one.
P.S. Sorry for breaking your stuff Gizogin.
(Planeshifting with artifacts is allowed, right?)

Zanzetkuken, I beleive you wanted this to continue our half of the thread's roleplay?

Corai quickly emptied all thoughts, if this was true then it was a rather powerful device, a device that could be useful for things OTHER then helping people. Plus it could get kobolds out of the fortress's slums. He forced a flat-face.

"Yes, I would."

[Eric Blank]

Funny, that thing said I was blue/white. I'm not particularly selfless. In fact I'm usually rather selfish. Maybe I didn't answer the questions as objectively as one should.

You need to get a crystal from Phyrexia or Dominaria to activate the portal I built for that purpose, but you don't have access to those places.

Carp.  I'll have to first find you a deck.  To MTG salvation wiki!

Do you want:
Heavenly Inferno
or Counterpunch

-I aint got no idea whats going on. All I know if once I get out of chains, CHAOS AND DEATH WILL ENSUE.-

-I aint got no idea whats going on. All I know if once I get out of chains, CHAOS AND DEATH WILL ENSUE.-

Ah, but you do not know how to summon yet!  And do not forget, that nothing you summon can compare to the Eldrazi that I can summon.  And the cards are absorbed into your skin when you get them, so you cannot take those from me.

The elf is getting Elemental Thunder
And you are getting Dark Sacrifice

But you are not getting the deck just yet.

[WillowLuman]

Scorpion elf thought for a while. He did not understand what he was told. "Protect my realm you say? What do you mean by that? I must get back to my people soon, or they will worry about my disappearance."
That test said I'm blue/white While I am very rational, and like things organized, I'm not one for preserving tradition and hierarchy.

[Zanzetkuken The Great]

"By protect your realm, I am refering to your plane.  You are currently in a different plane than where your people are, but I can get you back.  In actuality, there are thousands of planes, but I will explain later.  I have two decks with me," said Zanzetkuken.  "One that fits each of your inner mana."

Corai practically leaped for his deck, due to the foil card that he saw, but somehow managed to hold himself down, barely.  The elf was more stoic, and asked, "What is the catch?"

"It is not really a catch," said Zanzetkuken.  "It is more of an oath, and two markings."

"What is it?" asked the elf.

"The first marking identifies you as part of the order of planeswalkers that I hope to create, which will have it's relevance explained in the oath.  The second marks you as one of the masters of the order."

Corai, write your reply to that, but don't advance the scene.

Hugo, write the elf's reply, but don't advance the scene.

[WillowLuman]

He thought for a moment. "Will this protect the others? Will accepting this make the other altered-elves safer?"
