Ja, die deutsche Sprache ist viel besser...we should probably stop sidetracking this thread though

Do you have a spot in your plotline for another character? I need some character development and another open plotline

Uh u can make a new one and you can make non-physical projections?

Oh ok

He stared at the dice. He rolls the dice and takes out remembrance. He stabs with the newly enhanced remembrance.

Yeah, basically. Not a new character per se, but a variation on a current one...it'll all fit together eventually

Uhhhhhh

Well

It has to fit a criteria though

You’d have to make a complete new character

You certainly can make a similar character, but I intend for them to be able to be played for a while

I can pm you for specifics (Rebus doesn’t get the details until he reaches that spot) but it seems like that’s not in line with what ur going for

The dice clatter, roll, and come to a stop. They show a boulder and a cloud.

Abruptly, boulders begin raining down on the battlefield, striking down the forces of candy while leaving the force the Health alliance unscathed. The Champion is knocked further off balance by a hail of particularly large boulders targeting him, breaking pieces off of his candy armor, forming cracks to the gum that makes up his core. He roars in anger, shrinking down to the size of a normal person to better avoid the boulders, and lunges for God Killer.

Can I control the effects of the Impossible Odds?

God Killer waves Rememberance in the air, and all the boulders fall down upon The Champion. A constant stream of attacks descends upon him. He cannot run, cannot hide. With the boulders restricting his movement and bringing him down, God Killer stabbed like he had never stabbed before.

[TwinStorm He/Him]

Fael appeared by Rebus. "Malevolence has returned." she spat, frustrated. "What now? A new Antagonist?"

Of course. And God Killer will be able to transform it into a sword with practice, that’s just not always the default form of a Plotblade.

Off-balance and distracted by the rocks, the Champion failed to react. Remembrance sunk deep into his chest, piercing straight through his armor to pierce his gummy core.

The Champion bellowed in pain, then exploded. Bits of lollipop and gum splattered across the battlefield, sending the forces of candy into a panic. Soon, the battle was over, the candy fleeing the field harried by the forces of the healthy.

Subversion stood up beside God Killer, brushing her dress off. “Excellent job. You have earned that Plotblade. If you wish, I can teach you to have mastery over its powers.”

The sprite shrugged at Rebus’ words

Axzi was stunned

You’re going to kill a child without hesitation to further your own goals?  Oh… myself I suppose, who would do that?

The child looked up, oblivious to Rebus’ intent. It giggled to itself and the sprite scowled at it, feeling plagiarized. It clapped its tiny hands and grinned at him.

Betrayal looked sick and took an involuntary step backwards.

Yeah, I figured Rebus would be like “oh look, easy target”

“Yes, I am.” Rebus said quietly, then brought down Antagonist for as clean and painless a death he could manage. “It seems you have forgotten who I am.” 
Rebus raised an eyebrow at Betrayal - apparently even the very epitome of a traitor had standards. “I believe you are next, correct?”

Uhmhm yes idk where tho. 

"And this will scare him into giving me a paper that could lead to the end of the thread. With a translation of said paper?"

“I can find a translation myself,” Rebus said. “Be ready for @xinoehp512’s return.”

"Consider well. I... do not wish for this Thread to be destroyed." Malevolence's back straightened, and he sounded more like his old self as he continued. "Perhaps this is weakness in me, but I would prefer my eventual dominion to be over a living kingdom."

"Be at peace. I do not plan to harm you." The Dreamsmith made a soothing gesture. "I only wish to know your name and what you were doing here."

“I live in the Thread, Malevolence - I do not wish it destroyed any more than you do.” Rebus smiled, then continued. “Was there another matter you wished to discuss?” 

On 8/20/2025 at 7:13 PM, CoderDrag0n8 said:

You don't find much, but you find something odd with the magic off the are made of the same exact magic that made up The Shackled Dream. There was a difference, but it was one of personality more then magic. It also specifically seem keyed to keep The Shackled Dream's magic locked up, and has no defense against others.

Rebus found all this information very interesting - though he had guessed most of it, confirmation was important. A glow of purple blossomed within him, and he smiled broadly. “I believe I can release you.”

@Dragonheir Did you miss my reply?  

Looks like I did. 

Rebus smiled broadly. “You speak to as many villains as you can, trying to solve their problems without violence or evil, do you not?”

@Dragonheir got sidetracked and forgot to continue this

(Still a certain Southern man)

"What exactly do you seek the Lost Pages for?"

“I want to know the information they contain, of course.” Rebus knew this wasn’t a terribly informative comment, but mentioning any of his actual motives would be counterproductive.

A soft voice begins to whisper in Rebus's darn stinking names ending in s head. It's unintelligible at first, then begins growing, louder and louder, a never ending drumbeat, one word repeating endlessly. Somewhere, something is speaking to him.

 @Dragonheir this does relate to you quest for gods or whatever (if that's what you're calling it) just fyi so I'm not just throwing this here to annoy you

Rebus raised an eyebrow, wondering what the source of this could be. Because of the Authors, of course.

“He has returned, but that does not mean he is the antagonist. If he opposed me - which he isn’t - he might even end up with Protagonist due to lack of competition.”

"That would be ideal." God Killer responded, Rememberance eating The Champion's corpse to get its powers.

Question: are we just going to do a cut to when God Killer knows how to use it, or are we going to roleplay the learning?

The Shackled Dream looks up at Rebus. "Alright. Would you wish to discuss payment? I will be of greater power after you release me, but it might be more challenging to get the payment from my later form."

“There is only one thing I truly need more help with. I’ll free you - if you can free me in return.” Rebus glowed purple, the color engulfing any hints of green or orange. “Help me get outside the Thread.”

Fael raised an eyebrow, smiling. "Really?"

“Of course,” Rebus said. “There is no resistance - except, of course, the shadowy remnants of the Machination. If Malevolence - or anyone else - actively tried to resist me, they would be the only one. With no competition, it could very well be an easy task.”

“Oh, he’s not dead, by the way.” Subversion noted. “And I’m afraid you won’t be able to kill him. We’re in the past, before the great battle he had with a group of Narrators.” Indeed, some pieces of lollipop and gum escaped Remembrance, rolling away with the retreating army. “Still, defeating him was quite the feat.” She waved a hand, and a portal back to the present appeared. “Shall we go begin your training?”

up to you. We can offscreen it, onscreen it, montage it. If you want to offscreen it, I can give you an idea of some general Plotblade things, and you can come up with powers beyond the dice rolling thing for the Plotblade to have.

I wish to be a part of this plan with the Witherlord.” He turned to leave, sparks beginning to fly around him as his teleporter fired up. “Oh, and one more thing. Despite long absence, my goals remain unchanged. I will discover true evil and conquer this thread. And you will not stand in my way, Antagonist or no

“Well?” The Dreamsmith prodded the intruder. “What do you have to say for yourself? As I said, I mean you no harm. I just want to know what you were doing in my house.”

[Kansas Stormcursed he/him]

Somewhere, a blond-haired Southern man, this one with a slight inverted afterglow, began a mission.

Some of you will know what this is soon.
