paradisalogs | [Log] You Never Had the Head For All That Bigger Picture Stuff

Who: Colette Brunel, Genis Sage, Lloyd Irving, Martel Yggdrasil, Raine Sage, Sheena Fujibayashi, Yuan Ka-Fai, Zelos Wilder AND YOU
What: Joint Nightmare since for some reason they all share the same fear of zombie angels and crazy godmod teenagers
When: This Weekend
Where: Dream Land
Rating: PG-13 to R

[When arriving in this dream, you'll find yourself in various parts of Paradisa whether it be the castle or the grounds. And boy, do things sure look different. The town is nothing more but rubble, with the farmlands surrounding it razed and salted. There is no sign of any towns person still being alive. The castle still stands, but it seems to lack the life it once had.]

[As for the residents? Well, they got a worst fate than the townspeople. If you come across most residents, there's a good amount of changes. First noticeable thing is they now have wings (some like fairies while most have typical white bird angel wings). They all seem to have a red crystal embedded on them. But worst of all? They are completely devoid of any personality or free thought. Their eyes seem dead and they only seem to respond to the wishes of the one who caused this]

[If you're lucky, you might come across someone who hasn't succumb to this fate - they seem to have taken to hiding in the forest or the mountains. If not? Well...good luck.]

[OOC: ~~TLDR TIME YAY!~~ A joint dream where essentially Mithos Yggdrasil showed up in paradisa and took things over! Pretty much meaning he destroyed the town and turned every resident into zombie-angels. The Symphonian cast (including Mithos cough) will be all over this, but anyone is free to participate in this dream too! If you wish to do so, we got a number of options if you want to more!

OPTION A - Returning Resident/ just wandered into this room.
You just wandered into this or have no idea what's going on. Try not to get killed by angels.

OPTION B - Survivor.
You remember this and don't know it's just a dream. You remember when Mithos Yggdrasil started turning residents into angels, razing the town and claiming himself god. You were among one of the few lucky ones who escaped, who are currently in hiding and either want to find a way to take down Mithos- or find a way out into the Dead Zone where his hand has not reached yet. Maybe you're hiding in the rubble of the city, or the mountains or the forest. Try not to get killed by angels.

OPTION C - Former Angel.
You remember this and don't know it's just a dream. You remember when Mithos Yggdrasil started turning residents into angels, razing the town and claiming himself god. But you were unlucky, and were among the residents who got turned into the mindless drones. You remember how you were forced to kill all the townspeople, help in turning fellow residents into mindless drones like you. But you got lucky in the way that someone saved you, put a keycrest (fancy piece of metal) on your crystal so you regained your mind. You're still an angel- you still don't eat, sleep and maybe even your sense of touch is diminished or gone- but at least you have a mind and soul again. Plus the enhanced senses, strength and reflexes are really nice too. Try not to get caught again.

OPTION D - Angel
You remember this and don't know it's just a dream. You remember when Mithos Yggdrasil started turning residents into angels, when he razed the town, when he claimed himself God of a now lifeless land. But you were unlucky, and were among the residents who got turned into the mindless drones. You have enhanced senses, strength, reflexes and wings. On the flipside, you don't eat, sleep, feel and talking is optional too (since many angels have no voices). You feel nothing. All you desire to do is follow Mithos and his great plan. Have fun.

[ The good news is the kid flying into view now definitely doesn't have wings! The even better news is that he hasn't seemed to notice Zelos yet!

That second part isn't actually good news for John yet, it's just the way it happens to be. It's amazing he's lasted so long with how unobservant he can be at times. ]

[Yep he's noticing the lack of wings, and wondering what's that about. Sure angels don't always have to show their wings--- but do they need them to fly]

[Not to mention, just how the hell do you not notice a guy with glowing yellow wings? So how some staring with an eyebrow raise]

Edited 2012-10-10 01:07 (UTC)

[ Because John, that's how Zelos, and because he's not exactly turned in the right direction for the glow to even catch his peripheral vision. It isn't until he starts turning around that he notices them and--

Oh... OH FUCK! John freezes in spot, wondering if he should get out his weapon and pick a fight now or run for it before the angel starts attacking.

Either way, he's waffling on what to do. ]

[Just...internally facepalming]

.....Please tell me you're not the best the Resistance has to offer.

[ He sure is. Welcome to hell, Zelos.

But oh! Oh good this guy is clearly not an angel after all. John lands on the ground, looking relieved. ]

I guess so? I mean, I don't know about the best, but there's probably not a lot to offer anyways.

[This truly is a nightmare. He meanwhile folds his wings behind his back, at least so they are less obvious. Not putting them way entirely just in case he needs to make a quick getaway]

Right...that's comforting.

You might wanna learn to be more aware of your surroundings.

[ He's still eying those, by the way. And wondering what's up with them. Other people who aren't angels can have wings, he knows, but they still look a lot like the ones he's seen on some of them sporting.

... It's kind of weird, bro. ]

I'm aware of my surroundings! Normally. I didn't think anyone would be out here.

[ So basically... not aware of his surroundings. ]

[he's noticing the not so subtle staring] I have a keycrest, if you know what that means.

So...you weren't aware of your surroundings.

[ Only vaguely, enough that he nods and stops eying those wings like Zelos is about to turn around and stab him in the face with them at any minute. Not that... wings would be good to stab people with anyways. ]

Just this one time!

[Idk it could probably make someone choke with the feathers. But he's glad for that staring to stop. He never thought he'd miss the days where people would look at his wings with awe, and not you know...fear]

One time is all it can take. You have to be the first person to ever pass by me without noticing me like this.

[ Sadly this whole mess at Paradisa killed any chance of John ever been impressed by people's wings again. It's a shame, because he did really enjoy the wings his trolls friends had, but now he's more likely to cringe when he sees them than anything else. ]

I wasn't looking at you though!

[ It's an almost six feet tall firefly, John. ]

[You and the rest of Paradisa. Along with the word "angel". Maybe the vampire Angel never come here]

...Dude. I glow.

[ The poor man, having people shudder at the very sound of his name! Though that is only if he manages to come in here and avoid getting grabbed by the other angels in the first place. ]

I had my back turned?

[hey I'm pretty sure all that putting a cruxis crystal on him would do is piss him off since you know, vampire]

Yoooou're really something else, aren't you?

[ That... is very true, yes. Hopefully they never find out what would happen though. ]

Uh... I guess so?

...Just try not to die or get captured?

I plan on it!

[ Speaking of. ]

Uhm... so... you're not with them obvious, but you're still an angel sort of, right?

Yeah, I am. Why do you ask?

I don't know. Just making conversation, I guess? I don't get to talk to a lot of people most day.

Right...

[a sigh. Fine, he'll indulge the kid]

Yeah, I'm an angel. Keycrests can give will give someone their mind back, but there's no known way to reverse the transformation.

[ John's eyes get wider and he takes a step forward. They can at least free people from being mindless zombies? That's still incredible! ]

How do we make them?

Uh, you carve it out of inhibitor ore and there's some fancy angelic runes...[checking his own keycrest] Yeah. Some fancy angelic runes carved onto it.

Something like that.

[Clearly this is not the craftsman of the survivors]

[ Clearly not. John looks pretty disappointed by this explanation. ]

Is there anyone left that knows how to make them? I mean... someone made one for you and all.

[a shrug]

There's probably some still in the Resistance that can.

[ Wait... ]

There's a Resistance?!

[ ... Seriously, how did he make it? ]
