A Doomsday Like Any Other

Jump to navigationJump to search

And so it came to pass,
The Great Star fell from the sky,
Light departed the ways,
The captives were set free and
The Great Dragon was loosed upon the World.

As was foretold Night hath Fallen,
The End of Days
The Herald shall sound the last Trump
And shall announce unto all

Attend all mortals, immortals and demi-beings,
For it is on!
Heaven vs Hell
Three Rounds! One fall!
No Submissions!

Right Here! Right Now!
Coming to all kingdoms near you!
And in the White Corner leading the charge.
All cheer for Michael "The Mutilator" Taxiarch!

And in the Red Corner
Two times reigning champion.
The King Himself
Three cheers for Asmoday "The Infernoator" Pseudothei!

Art thou ready to rumble!

Plans

Briefing

Briefing from Kali and Corel
We have organised portals to three locations near Barretskyne, the portals in the courtyard will activate in half an hour (at what was midday) and transport you to the three destinations (without stripping your FT) transit time is estimated at 1 minute. These are one-shots, no return, no guild reinforcements. You may be able to contact the other groups for help but don't count on it, reports are there's a lot of wild magic in the area interfering with most long range magic.
You are to hold your location and prevent any of the evil inhabitants of Baretskyne from getting through.
Longer term containment is being organised, church knights are escorting artefacts and specialists to erect the containment and relieve you, they should be there within 24 hours - provided nothing gets through to slow them down.
We have organised mages to cast on you (list below) as you approach the portals and we have potion packs for each of you.
Further information and tasks will be communicated to you shortly.
You now have 25 minutes to prepare yourselves, assemble in the courtyard and line up for your buffs.

  • Sabrina Plan

Kill bad guys, rinse, repeat.... (given she is a recent mother with all the inherent pain and sleeplessness, plus having her barony wiped out in the war, might mean she is more than a little touchy :-) )

  • Basalic's Plan

Kill the bad guys, get the sun into crossbow range, fire crossbows with explosive heads onto the surface, if that doesn't work, try an alchemical grenado or flint & steel then, as soon as it reignites, run away as fast as possible.

  • re forge the gates of hell
  • return the fire elements, breed fire elementals
  • steal Gabriels horn and defeat all 71 demons
  • reignite the sun with a flint and steel while standing on it
  • use explosives to kick start the reaction
  • ... seafood ...
  • ... paths ...
  • ... sun ...
  • ... phoenix ...
