Let the Carnage BeginCHIHUAHUA CARNAGE
Psysquid slowly removes his sunglasses as he stares at the Buttio-Chili-Hotdog stand where the Hero Chihuahua is supposed to be.
He slowly sips from a carton cup his EO-Coke -Evil Overlord Coke, that refreshing taste of evil that remains on your tongue forever!- as Snowstar looks around wearily. "This place is giving me the creeps," he remarks.
The scorching hot sun reverberates on the cracked concrete pavement. A ball of hay rolls by, as the sound of boots hitting against the ground echo rhythmically around. There's the sound of maracas being used as cries echo all around Psysquid.
"AND HE FAILS, Lady and gentlemen! Will no one challenge the Hero Chihuahua to a Scorching Hot Stand!?"
a mic-enhanced voice bellows from just behind the corner, where Psysquid slowly walks just as a Minion Cog hands him over a sombrero and a mantle.
A Wuffle-Cog floats by, gently depositing a mexican cape on his back.
A western-like music starts playing as Psysquid clicks his tongue in rhythm with his steps, as if he had boots with spurs.
"Maybe we should reconsider," Snowstar says. "I don't like hot places."
"Who goes there? Is it a Challenger!?" a short and stocky man looking like a clone of Elvis Presley yells out pointing at him.
"The Hunt never reconsiders, child," the Hunter comments standing atop his steed. "They challenge us to a duel! We shall fight them!"
"Oh boy..." one of the civilians nearby exclaims. "It's the Chupacalamar!"
The Hero Chihuahua removes her sombrero, to reveal beneath it a tanned buxom beauty with a bright smile...and a mask like those of the masked wrestlers. "Very well! We have a challenger!" the Hero laughs out loud. A few security guards pop out from beneath their own sombreros, levelling their guns at Psysquid's troops.
"Ahhh..." Psysquid remarks with a smirk, "
Muy Caliente!"
A mandolin starts playing a salsa tune as the battle begins!
Why no success roll? Because this is a Defeat X battle. You sort-of miss the point of 'defeating' the hero if you avoid him...right?
"I like my Calamar with tequila sauce!" Chihuahua exclaims, charging ahead as the guards (4) start firing.
"Why don't you cool off?" Psysquid retorts, letting the ice blocks levitate around him before throwing them forward.
1d12= 11 + 2 (Naturally Psychic) + 6 (Unlimited ICE Works) + 0.75 (Three Minions) + 0.75 (WUFFLECOG VROOM VROOM) + 1 (Because, yeah, Snowstar's 1.5 works only near water) + 1.5 (Hunter-Hunt the Living) + 1 (Hunter-Thrill of the Hunt) vs 1d12= 10 + 2 (Muy Caliente!) + 2(The Power of Chili!) + 2 (Guns) + 2 (Buddy System)= 24 Vs 18= 6!
The ice cube wave slams into the mouths of the guards, knocking them out as the Hunter slashes forward while holding on to a Wuffle-Cog for enhanced speed. A jarring wound appears on the otherwise unblemished skin of the Hero Chihuahua.
"Argh! You damn overgrown squid! This isn't over!"
Psysquid sighs. "Don't worry," he adds then thoughtfully. "We have standards now...and your fighting style is sort of a dancing thing I suppose...Lord Gamington needed a dance partner to begin with."
"Wait, what are you...no! You will never catch me alive!"
1d12= 10+2+1.50 (total Cog bonus) +1 + 2.5(Total Hunter bonuses) vs 1d12= 10 + -2 (No longer a Caliente Sexy Babe) + 2( I belong to Chili)= 16.50 Vs 10!
"COG!" the cogs exclaim at the same time, before forming a Cog-Copter and flinging themselves at her. Holding her down with the strength of their highly replaceable numbers, Psysquid slowly walks forward while putting back on his sunglasses.
"Mucho Gracias," he states putting his left hand as a 'gun' in front of the woman's forehead. "Time to sleep...Buenas Noches."
The a psychic impulse knocks her out cold. Psysquid blows on his index fingers and then stares at the Hero in question.
"Very well! Let's bring her back to base shall we?"
The Hunter returns with a scared waitress wearing a tight latex one piece 'wrestler' suit. What is it with Mexicans and flashy wrestling moves...
"Did I hunt one well?" the Hunter states plainly.
"You did well," Psysquid replies. "Now...off, to the horizon!"
Just before leaving, Psysquid quickly summons a Burrito in his mouth.
"Nothing better than sweat, blood and a burrito to end a day," and to the sound of mexicam theme music, the zeppelin sails off in the horizon back to base.
Resource acquired: Captured Hero Chihuahua!
Resource acquired: Serving Wenc...ahem, Waitress.
Resource acquired: a burrito. Resources eaten along the journey back home: A Burrito. RAWRING CARNAGE
The neon sign reads 'ANIMALS WITH ISSUES SHELTER PLEASE BE CONSIDERED'.
"What?" Cerulean asks. "What is there to consider?"
"No, be considered, as in...don't ask about the elephant in the room," Chemista remarks.
"There's an elephant in the room?" Cerulean blinks as you step inside the shelter. There actually is a pink elephant in the room, who appears to try to hide behind a potted plant.
"Where?" she adds.
You massage your forehead and then snap your fingers. soon knocking out with your Silver Summoned Golem the potentially dangerous animals with ease.
"Isn't this, like, Overkill?" Cerulean asks slowly as you make your way through the animal shelter, which is completely devoid of guards.
1d12= 6+2(pure Control)+2(Chemista) +1 (Ex Overlordess) + 1 (Side-kick Bonus)+0.50 (Cogs) + 0 (WuffleCogs aren't made for Control)= 12.50
No police present!
"There is no such thing as Overkill, Cerulean dear," Chemista replies. "If you can kill something with a bullet, you should kill it with a grenade just to be sure, but using a Nuke always yields the best results."
"Yes, mom," Cerulean replies. "By the way...I couldn't find my magical wand. Does anyone know where it went?"
"Cog...Computing Cog Denial of Service Attack."
You whistle happily.
"And...oh look how cute! Can I take him home please!?"
That said, Cerulean literally throws herself to hug a.
Sloth with a bike helmet on its head.
You look at the scene with perplexity.
"Chemista?"
"I have already gathered the mutagens for the common animals. I have now collected mutagens from the exotic animals trapped in here."
"Chemista."
"What is it, overlord?"
"Why does the Sloth have a bike helmet on its head?"
"Maybe he likes to speed down the road?"
"Why?"
"Do you ask a chicken why he crosses the road? What reason is there to ask such a question, your evilness?"
"Because Sloths don't go on bicycles!"
Chemista closes her goo-eyes for a moment.
"The pink elephant, you ignored."
"You always ignore pink elephants in rooms of course," You nod sagely. "It's a rule of life."
Chemista says nothing else, and soon you leave the shelter behind with a veritable Zoo of animals in cages.
Resources acquired: Zoo-animal mutagens.
Animals acquired: Two per species of Zoo-Animals.Weather the Storm"In an incredible event, Just city's police department was put under pressure with the disappearance of the Hero Chihuahua -who witnesses claim the evil Chupacalamari sucked away- and the disappearance of an entire shelter filled with poor misunderstood animals! Peta is actively on the hunt of whoever did not ignore the pink elephant in the room, while the members of Nascar team 'Slow and Steady' are asking for the return of SPEEDO their Sloth mascot. What is going to happen to Just-city now that evil appears to be lurking nearby? Stay tuned for more news by Meteo-Girl, the superheroine of sun, rain and acid drizzle!" you close the television after that.
Well, everything went well.
It was even easy, now that you think about it. Hitting them unprepared as they were...really, maybe you're starting to get the hang of it?
You are now in DownkeepWhat do you do?Notice: Saturday-Sunday I will NOT be present at Home...because I'm going Larping with friends. So don't worry if this weekend you suddenly find yourself without your usual Overlord-goodness.
And Resources are given 'without specification of units' so that you can freely imagine whatever you want to add. If however you build something devastating, like 'Ray of doom that destroys city blocks' I will consume completely the Generator and the Scraps, forcing you to 'find another source' of both.
