Possession is 9/10 of the law

[raavashing]

Characters: Anyone helping Wan attempt to counter-possess Asti; Malicant
Date: Sat. 10/25
Location: Various TBD
Situation: Wan is attempting to possess Asti; others are acting as distractions/helping power boost
Warnings/Rating: Will post them in subject lines when/if needed

The log is going to be broken up between the following Event 'points' just to manage them easier:

Pre-Possession Power-Up (Mingle for those powering up Wan before his group heads to the Turtle's Head)
Pre-Distraction Meet-Up (Mingle for the distraction teams to finalize tactics or throw caution to the wind)
Possession Attempt (The actual possession attempt)
Distraction Group One (Headed up by Dante, this group is going to be dealing with the cultists directly)
Distraction Group Two (Network distraction group and/or different group of cultists)
End of the Day (for people to deal with the fallout of the event if they want to do so in this log)

ANYONE can tag in and take part in any of the threads except the Possession Attempt itself - that's closed to Wan, Valdis, Zuko, and Katara so the group is small and less easily noticed.

Y'all would be adorable if you weren't the homicidal servants of an entity of pure malicious evil.

Gene could fight them all off hand-to-hand, but why expend the energy? The yellow ring gleamed on his finger and shot a bolt of ice at the nearest cultists, hoping to freeze their legs or even encase those on the front lines bodily in ice.

This is why I don't play villans

[royalguard_style]

The cultists that were completely encased in ice were down for the count, but the remaining ones simply altered their limbs so they could easily slip out of the trap, leaving only three of the six left to fight. They continued trying to stab any place where they thought there might be an opening, such as Gene's joints or his neck.

idk what you're talking about this is great

[wrathfulkhan]

The cultists were angry, and Gene grinned beneath the helmet. Three on one was hardly fair. Maybe he should unfreeze the other three, make it an even fight.

Nah.

He roared, striking at the cultists with his armored form, the vicious claws on the armor slicing at them. He was aiming to put them down, not necessarily kill them.

[royalguard_style]

Gene's attacks struck true, and the cultists were struck down in a pool of blood, unconscious but alive. The remaining cultist was kneeling on the ground, swearing under his breath and trying to keep ahold of his knife.

"I refuse to allow you to insult our lord like that! I will defend his honor to my dying breath!" The blade trembled in his hands as the cultist struggled to stand up.

[wrathfulkhan]

Gene laughed harshly, the laughter sounding demonic through the voice modulator. "Your master has no honor. Your master is a child-killing coward. And your master will. Be. Destroyed."

The orange ring flashed again, and the poisoned blade dissolved into nothingness.

"Go," he said wearily, shoving the cultist away. "You disgust me. Gather your fellows and leave."

[royalguard_style]

With no choice, the cultist scowled an ran, with no regard to his comrades. His master needed to know just what he would be facing, and maybe, just maybe, he would figure out a weakness in his infinite wisdom.

And with that, Gene has a huge mess to clean up now.

[wrathfulkhan]

Gene probably should have killed him.

But oh well. He's trying to be a good person now.

...though maybe not so good he's going to clean up those cultists. He teleported away, resuming his DDoS attack. They could try to slow him down. Operative word being 'try'.
