C1Sa Endgame PLANNING

[20:18] == Alex_ [~Alex@2605:a601:130:5900:f4ba:1671:b909:ab3d] has joined #RPGStuck_C1
[20:18] <Alex_> YO
[20:18] <Lyra_Bel> YO
[20:18] <Alex_> Yo
[20:19] <Lyra_Bel> Yo
[20:19] <Alex_> alright where were we?
[20:19] <Alex_> also at what point should we look for a dm
[20:20] <Lyra_Bel> Walking through tunnel to blow up the planet
[20:20] <Lyra_Bel> And there kinda aren't any DMs left
[20:20] <Alex_> Damn
[20:20] <Alex_> ok
[20:20] <Alex_> so
[20:20] <Alex_> what do we do?
[20:21] <Lyra_Bel> So far, I've been developing character through chatlogs
[20:21] <Lyra_Bel> Same thing as the past 8 months
[20:21] <Lyra_Bel> Pretty much do whatever, and narrate the denoument myself
[20:23] <Lyra_Bel> Lyra's "GT power" was basically Spencer handing over the reins
[20:23] <Alex_> great
[20:23] <Alex_> alright so how should we handle bro
[20:23] <Lyra_Bel> idek
[20:24] <Lyra_Bel> Almost seems like the easiest option is to say "Bro is doing his usual shenanigans in the meantime but they're ignoring him"
[20:24] <Lyra_Bel> Or it's offscreen or something
[20:24] <Lyra_Bel> Or just coincidentally not ever decaptcha him
[20:25] <Alex_> well we're gonna need to deal with it eventually
[20:25] <Lyra_Bel> Eeyup
[20:26] <Alex_> is there an eventually?
[20:26] <Lyra_Bel> I think so?
[20:26] <Alex_> i thought faerzen was still ok and "12" aka michael was going to say no to the integration
[20:26] <Lyra_Bel> Mike's apparently DMing Faerzen a private story
[20:27] <Lyra_Bel> Seeing as nothing has been posted by either of them but he still insists that it's going down
[20:28] <Lyra_Bel> Right now, the only reason Lyra hasn't forcibly just gone to the other session is out of courtesy to Bill, who's still tryna do Ezra's shadow strife
[20:28] <Alex_> ah
[20:28] <Alex_> after that though?
[20:28] <Lyra_Bel> C1 Campaignwide ending, I guess
[20:29] <Lyra_Bel> I have the tadpole, we're kinda just stuck in a waiting game for however long the strife goes
[20:30] <Lyra_Bel> And then... I guess game over because we win?
[20:30] <Lyra_Bel> Frankly, I'm so tired of this embarrassment of a campaign that I'd be happy with "a winner is you" by this point
[20:31] <Alex_> i guess
[20:31] <Alex_> its hard to believe is almost over
[20:31] <Lyra_Bel> S'pose
[20:32] <Lyra_Bel> How about you?  What are you hoping to get out of all this?
[20:32] <Alex_> no idea ma
[20:32] <Alex_> n
[20:32] <Alex_> no fucking idea
[20:32] <Alex_> a
[20:32] <Alex_> satisfying ending?
[20:32] <Alex_> is that possible now?
[20:32] <Alex_> it seems to be for the other half
[20:32] <Lyra_Bel> Eeyup
[20:33] <Lyra_Bel> But we get to join in on the afterparty
[20:33] <Lyra_Bel> So that's... fun?
[20:33] <Lyra_Bel> Bleh
[20:33] <Lyra_Bel> S'nobody left to rely on to give us a satisfying ending
[20:33] <Lyra_Bel> Think it really is up to us by now
[20:36] <Alex_> that seems wrong
[20:36] <Alex_> but
[20:36] <Alex_> i guess might as well
[20:36] <Lyra_Bel> Wrong as in incorrect, or as in improper?
[20:36] <Alex_> improper
[20:36] <Alex_> were the players dammit :P
[20:36] <Lyra_Bel> Drat
[20:37] <Lyra_Bel> Was hoping it'd be the first one and I was wrong about everything
[20:37] <Alex_> me too
[20:37] <Alex_> me too
[20:37] <Lyra_Bel> Well
[20:37] <Lyra_Bel> Assuming we're writing our own ending
[20:37] <Lyra_Bel> What all do you want to actually happen in it?
[20:38] <Lyra_Bel> What would be close enough to a satisfying ending for you?
[20:38] <Alex_> alex and lyra talk, seriously talk,a bout if a relationship between them is gonna work
[20:38] <Lyra_Bel> Alright
[20:39] <Lyra_Bel> Do you have a conclusion in mind, or just to see how it turns out?
[20:39] <Alex_> just see how it turns out
[20:40] <Alex_> maybe hell never realize nick and faerzen were meant for eachother an they live happily
[20:40] <Alex_> maybe he does and well see hwat happens
[20:40] <Lyra_Bel> What do you mean?
[20:44] <Lyra_Bel> Alex_
[20:44] <Alex_> alex is basing his relationship on the fact that if faerzen and nick are soulmates, then he and lyra rae to
[20:44] <Alex_> becasue thats how shit works
[20:44] <Alex_> a
[20:44] <Alex_> pparently
[20:44] <Lyra_Bel> Okay
[20:45] <Lyra_Bel> So... if he realizes that those two ARE soulmates, then things get put into question?
[20:45] <Alex_> no if they arent
[20:46] <Alex_> hes convinced they are at the moment
[20:46] <Lyra_Bel> Oh
[20:46] <Lyra_Bel> You meant weren't
[20:46] <Lyra_Bel> Y'kinda said were
[20:46] <Alex_> er
[20:46] <Alex_> yeah
[20:46] <Alex_> sorry lol
[20:46] <Lyra_Bel> :P
[20:46] <Lyra_Bel> S'all good
[20:46] <Lyra_Bel> Lyra, right now
[20:47] <Lyra_Bel> Is trying very hard to get over her inherent fear of commitment
[20:47] <Lyra_Bel> Because Alex was the one thing in the world that never changed, never lied, never did anything bad to her
[20:48] <Alex_> and if he bails...?
[20:49] <Lyra_Bel> Well, I guess there's always ice cream, movies, and crying to Lily
[20:49] <Alex_> i was worried more about forsaking this plane and becoming lord english
[20:49] <Lyra_Bel> She'd be heartbroken, but things'd be a lot easier for her in comparison to fighting against several phobias
[20:50] <Lyra_Bel> Nah, she's already stronger than LE
[20:50] <Alex_> but without the motive
[20:51] <Lyra_Bel> Pretty much
[20:51] <Alex_> great
[20:51] <Lyra_Bel> Alex bailing wouldn't lead her on an existential rampage, though
[20:51] <Alex_> what exactly are the extent of her powers atm anyway
[20:51] <Lyra_Bel> "Access to the web page she's on"
[20:52] <Lyra_Bel> Including clicking links and typing
[20:52] <Alex_> so shes fully broken through the 4th wall
[20:52] <Lyra_Bel> Eeyup
[20:52] <Lyra_Bel> All the powers of a DM
[20:52] <Alex_> alright
[20:52] <Alex_> well
[20:52] <Alex_> heres what i think the question is
[20:53] <Alex_> do we awnt to end it well, or do we want to tell a good story?
[20:53] <Lyra_Bel> I'm pretty cool either way
[20:53] <Lyra_Bel> Good story with sad ending would be them breaking up, yeah?
[20:53] <Alex_> yeah but
[20:54] <Alex_> alex isnt exactly the most couth of people
[20:54] <Alex_> maybe he could accidently make an end boss out of lyra
[20:54] <Lyra_Bel> Yeah, no
[20:54] <Alex_> give the second session a fun time
[20:54] <Lyra_Bel> That's kind of impossible by now
[20:54] <Lyra_Bel> Lily has fully shooshpapped all genocidal possibilities out of her
[20:56] <Alex_> ah
[20:56] <Alex_> damn lily
[20:56] <Alex_> magic
[20:56] <Lyra_Bel> Best Moirail
[20:56] <Lyra_Bel> Though to be fair
[20:56] <Lyra_Bel> S'been like 8 months OOC
[20:57] <Lyra_Bel> That's a long pesterlog to get to know each other, and to then work out every problem either character is having
[20:58] <Alex_> true truer
[20:58] <Alex_> true true*
[21:00] <Lyra_Bel> Like
[21:00] <Lyra_Bel> imo
[21:00] <Lyra_Bel> Everyone in this session is YES powerful
[21:01] <Lyra_Bel> Lyra has DMing, Alex has wish-grade powerups, Juan has time travel, and Faerzen has a DM with a list of GodNPCs
[21:01] <Lyra_Bel> A final boss doesn't seem like much of a challenge at all
[21:01] <Lyra_Bel> Unless it just turns into "who can type that they use their power the fastest?"
[21:02] <Alex_> or Jobbing
[21:02] <Alex_> thats why comic books use it so much
[21:02] <Lyra_Bel> Makes sense
[21:02] <Lyra_Bel> I guess
[21:02] <Lyra_Bel> But then we'd need an excuse for them to do that
[21:03] <Alex_> i guess
[21:03] <Lyra_Bel> Level with me
[21:04] <Lyra_Bel> Do you want a final boss fight?
[21:04] <Alex_> not necessarily
[21:04] <Alex_> i just want alex to do SOMETHING
[21:04] <Alex_> at some point
[21:04] <Lyra_Bel> Yeah
[21:04] <Lyra_Bel> That's fair
[21:04] <Lyra_Bel> You kinda really got the short end of the stick
[21:05] <Lyra_Bel> There's still the BK, maybe?
[21:05] <Alex_> on our session?
[21:05] <Lyra_Bel> Yeah, sorta
[21:06] <Alex_> i mean
[21:06] <Alex_> we could do that whole fight ourselves
[21:06] <Alex_> especially if alex asked to be usefull
[21:06] <Alex_> lyra would sit so you could dm
[21:06] <Alex_> alex would fight
[21:06] <Lyra_Bel> That actually does make sense
[21:07] <Lyra_Bel> Lyra is literally omnipotent, with one key weakness
[21:07] <Lyra_Bel> If it gets disruptive to the session, Twelve can ask for /u/Strategist14 to be banned from the sub, basically killing Lyra
[21:07] <Lyra_Bel> So if "disruptive" means it starts bothering the other players
[21:07] <Alex_> who else is left
[21:07] <Lyra_Bel> Them being you
[21:07] <Alex_> lol
[21:08] <Lyra_Bel> They're all you
[21:08] <Alex_> so alex is lyra's only weakness
[21:08] <Alex_> fucking lol
[21:08] <Lyra_Bel> Yeah pretty much
[21:08] <Lyra_Bel> Or rather
[21:08] <Lyra_Bel> ProcyonA is
[21:08] <Alex_> @dms plz ban strat char 2 op
[21:09] <Lyra_Bel> Well way to go ya killed me
[21:09] <Lyra_Bel> I'm dead now
[21:09] <Lyra_Bel> But I mean
[21:09] <Lyra_Bel> If Alex asked Lyra not to interfere
[21:09] <Lyra_Bel> She would sorta have to
[21:10] <Lyra_Bel> Have to avoid interfering*
[21:10] <Lyra_Bel> So yeah, he could totally solo BK in an epic 1v1 level-YES showdown
[21:11] <Alex_> that would be great
[21:11] <Alex_> id be donwn
[21:11] <Lyra_Bel> Cool
[21:11] <Lyra_Bel> Sounds like a plan, then
[21:11] <Alex_> alright
[21:11] <Alex_> so shall we begin
[21:11] <Lyra_Bel> ??
[21:11] <Lyra_Bel> Like right now?
[21:11] <Alex_> well
[21:11] <Alex_> we're just gonna talk
[21:12] <Alex_> and get there naturally right
[21:12] <Alex_> we're gonna need to talk at some poitn
[21:12] <Lyra_Bel> S'pose so
[21:12] <Lyra_Bel> Guess we'll work out a way for it to happen naturally, then
[21:12] <Lyra_Bel> In the meantime, I'll get to work on stats
[21:12] <Alex_> hey thanks
[21:12] <Lyra_Bel> Of course
[21:13] <Lyra_Bel> I'm getting the character development I wanted out of the ending
[21:13] <Lyra_Bel> No reason you shouldn't get your own epic scene of epic epicness
[21:13] <Alex_> oh also if you wouldnt mind could you make some stats for me
[21:13] <Alex_> i dont think i have a set power at the moment
[21:13] <Lyra_Bel> Hah
[21:13] <Alex_> this should work pretty well
[21:13] <Lyra_Bel> I was thinking I'd just use the same statblock
[21:13] <Lyra_Bel> And hand you a copy
[21:13] <Alex_> lmao
[21:13] <Alex_> im literally bk
[21:14] <Lyra_Bel> Hah
[21:14] <Lyra_Bel> At least it's an even match
[21:14] <Lyra_Bel> Which was exactly the wish





[10:21:02 PM] Strat: So hey, before you head off
[10:21:06 PM] Strat: You talked to Mike, yeah?
[10:22:03 PM] Alex Holsinger (Procyon): no
[10:22:06 PM] Alex Holsinger (Procyon): not for a while
[10:22:12 PM] Strat: Really?
[10:22:18 PM] Strat: Cuz he's like
[10:22:27 PM] Strat: Bragging about being in charge of the whole C1 campaign in the C4S3 chat
[10:22:48 PM] Strat: Thought you'd talked to him or something
[10:23:06 PM] Alex Holsinger (Procyon): nope
[10:23:10 PM] Strat: Huh
[10:23:15 PM] Alex Holsinger (Procyon): I haven't talked to him since I bailed out of c4s3
[10:23:27 PM] Strat: Weird
[10:23:56 PM] Strat: Well, either way we may wind up not doing the whole BK thing
[10:24:03 PM] Strat: Since he's apparently taken us over
[10:24:12 PM] Alex Holsinger (Procyon): fuck that
[10:24:21 PM] Alex Holsinger (Procyon): ive been in this fucking campaign for almost 2 years
[10:24:27 PM] Alex Holsinger (Procyon): lest just get our ending
[10:24:34 PM] Strat: Amen
[10:24:54 PM] Strat: I actually have several days off coming up.  I guess I'll get started on the statblock
[10:24:59 PM] Alex Holsinger (Procyon): thanks man
[10:25:06 PM] Strat: Care if he has any minions, or just mano a mano?
[10:25:38 PM] Alex Holsinger (Procyon): whatever the rex duo vid had
[10:25:40 PM] Alex Holsinger (Procyon): loved that
[10:25:47 PM] Strat: Most of my knowledge of BK fights comes from the Rex Duodecim Ang- yeah that thing
[10:26:00 PM] Strat: Minions it is then
[10:26:33 PM] Strat: Aright, I'll get started
[10:26:35 PM] Strat: ttyl
[10:27:45 PM] Alex Holsinger (Procyon): yeah see ypo
[10:27:48 PM] Alex Holsinger (Procyon): and tanks for doing this
[10:28:04 PM] Strat: Like I said
[10:28:22 PM] Strat: Y'stuck around to IRC with and play the character.  I got what I wanted
[10:28:28 PM] Strat: Only fair
[10:29:01 PM] Alex Holsinger (Procyon): still
[10:29:06 PM] Alex Holsinger (Procyon): lots more work from yopu
[10:29:15 PM] Strat: I don't mind
[10:29:17 PM] Strat: It'll be fun
[10:29:24 PM] Strat: I get to screw around with really big numbers
[10:29:33 PM] Alex Holsinger (Procyon): lmao
[10:29:40 PM] Strat: I powergame, dude
[10:29:41 PM] Alex Holsinger (Procyon): make sure I don't get instagibbed
[10:29:44 PM] Strat: This is like a dream come true
[10:29:57 PM] Alex Holsinger (Procyon): :P
[10:30:13 PM] Strat: If you can get instagibbed, then it stands to reason that BK is just as likely to be
[10:31:31 PM] Strat: But yeah.  If you have any cool ideas, mechanical or setting or otherwise
[10:31:37 PM] Strat: Lemme know, yeah?
[10:31:48 PM] Alex Holsinger (Procyon): i mean
[10:31:52 PM] Alex Holsinger (Procyon): the battlefield right
[10:31:57 PM] Strat: Yeah
[10:32:09 PM] Strat: But idk, how we reach the point
[10:32:36 PM] Alex Holsinger (Procyon): we'll find it
[10:32:39 PM] Strat: Yeah
[10:32:41 PM] Strat: We got this
