The Great Belgiuming (April Fools Forum Game)

[aah31415 (Possible Error Message)]

BATTLE 1 - TURN 5

Loki’s both swarms go towards each other and merge briefly into the humanoid form, before turning back into one large bee swarm! At the same time, Enkefaros started going towards the other side of the map, but they ended up encountering three Belgium-blobs! At the same time Waterzooi also met those enemies in other section of the boulder pit… Meanwhile, Somnium was trying to feel the minds of the enemies, but the only signals it got was a repeating chain of the word “Belgium”. It also tried to make the fighters look further into the thick mist but it turned out to not be possible for Somnium to make their eyesight better.

FIGHTERS:

Loki

ADVANTAGES:
1: Extra Form
2:

@willow

overstimulation immunity: the user’s brain adapts to the amount and types of stimuli it gets and actions it needs to perform at a time within minutes, resulting in the user being functionally immune to overstimulation

3:

@willow

decentralized body: the user cannot die from destruction of one vital organ, as they have multiple copies of every vital organ, and thus every copy of at least one vital organ must be destroyed for the user to die. the user can also start growing more of any organ on command, but it takes time to grow them, even if cells can just be tilapia-dteleported in in the shape of the organ, as generally tissue will need to be moved and spawning all the cells at once will simply make the whole thing either fall apart or otherwise not function.

DISADVANTAGES:
1:

@willow

legless: the user does not, and can not, have legs. if the user attempts to make legs, with a leg defined as a limb that has the intended main purpose of locomotion by pushing against the ground or a wall, the limb will disintegrate or be turned back into its raw materials.

2:

@willow

insomnia: the user is physically unable to sleep. they don’t have a biological need to sleep either, but they still feel the effects of not sleeping.

DESCRIPTION:

@willow

single entity
stronger but less agile than Numerous Bees

Numerous Bees
weaker but stronger than single entity form

@willow

Loki has no legs and any legs they try to make will simply vanish as soon as they appear, and as a result they had to know how to make limbs for flying, climbing, swimming, limbs to use the ground to rest, and all-purpose limbs built to do everything but just happening to originate in a spot that makes them useful for locomotion on ground to work around their chronic and incurable leglessness. unsurprisingly, the form they often find themself the most comfortable in is that of not one, but several, and up to thousands of, large bees. of course, as they can shapeshift and keep their most important part in a magical big words pseudoscience dimension, they have removed parts of their central brain they don’t need or want, like their internal thermostat(the bees have their own and having one dedicated to all the bees is simply a bad move), most of the medulla oblongata, as insects are small enough to not need much of a circulatory system, but these bees do breathe, and they all breathe in sync, and their breathing pumps their blood. when they are in bees form they have to modify their auditory and visual processing centers to hear and see things properly, but due to the great amount of bees they do away with their chemoreception processing centers and replace them with something to let all the bees know what bee is smelling what thing and let all the bees smell what all the other bees smell. in bees form they typically feel the need to be doing between 300 and 10,000 things at once, and can do so with their multiple bodies that can communicate near instantly through the magical sci-fi handwave dimension, said bodies also put themselves entirely in the dimension when they are nearing death by anything that won’t continue killing them once they are in the magical electromagnetism dimension(things that will include poison, viruses, parasites that enter your cells, cancer, and prions.).
as Loki is not able to make chitin, their bees for their bees form instead use a keratin exoskeleton with a bone inner lining for muscle cells to bind to, and when the exoskeleton needs to be shed, bones are summoned in their place. Loki also cannot produce venom, so instead for their stinger they use highly concentrated ammonia with all the toxic metals from the bee it’s produced in mixed in.

in ‘human’ form Loki cannot aqcuire brain damage as they keep their brain in the magical sci-fi big words pseudoscience dimension at all times, but they can still ‘die’ if their body is destroyed, but they are still alive when that happens, they just have no anchor to the universe and thus cannot remove any cells from the magic cells dimension, and have to wait until the next battle for their body to respawn. they can also ‘die’ in a similar way in any of their forms, whether or not they have multiple bodies, but if they have multiple bodies all of them must be fully destroyed to destroy their connection to the real world. in forms they have one skull it generally makes a hollow ‘thunk’ noise when knocked on as it is actually generally hollow in those forms, unless they fill it with smaller copies of their internal organs so they can turn into a head octopus if decapitated instead of loosing an anchor to the real world.

@willow

Loki is a human bard multi-dimensional changeling who tells their foes that their magic is very much not magic and is in fact [insert big sciencey word here] for the sake of chaos and just chaos, and that they sold their ability to have legs to an alien that calls its species the belgiums for the knowledge to do all the things they do, and that they were a human but the knowledge they had fed into their brain cannot be comprehended by a human brain so they couldn’t stay human and keep the knowledge, so they kept the knowledge and cast away their humanity. they were actually never a human, their magic is very much magic, the only knowledge the belgium blobs gave them is how to use the magic, and the knowledge is fully comprehendable by the human mind, it’s just useless to the human brain without access to the specific kinds of magic they have. Loki also likes playing instruments and threatening to cast vicious mockery on people who are being rude with no reason.

Loki likes cats, axolotls, octopi, clownfish, and sponges the most due to cats just being cute chaos contraptions, axolotls both being cute and having really good regenerative abilities, octopi being masters of disguise and extremely intelligent, clownfish literally being able to change their sex at will, and sponges being the best shapeshifters on earth, second only to Loki themselves. Foods Loki likes include pretty much anything a honey bee or a cat likes, chocolate, bitter almonds(they can just regrow the parts of the body that die), and the cerebrospinal fluid of kids who intentionally abuse animals they find in alleyways(not like they’re gonna grow up to be good people anyways, but they’ll still probably survive, they’ll definitely have the worst headache of their life though).

yes, my character is just a joke character based on how NBs, including me, tell people who can’t seem to get our pronouns right to refer to us as if we were a swarm of bees, but with shapeshifting, an optimized body and brain for it, leg(o)lessness, and chronic, incurable, and possibly weaponizable insomnia mixed in

(DISADVANTAGE) ENERGY: 5/5

ABILITIES:

PASSIVE:
Equilibrium Zone: Energetic and Kinetic attacks are weakened if they are within this zone, regenerates energy if such attack is commited

Dimension Weaver: When Hit an enemy, temporarily adds the best advantage to The Fighter (Lasts until the fight with this/those entity/entities ends)

E=MC2: Special Energy Statistic which measures how many Active Abilities can you cast.

ACTIVE:
Genetic Manipulation: Can Modify an enemy’s genome, changing it’s statistics, abilities and even alignment. You need to first inspect an enemy in order to use this ability.

MISC.:

Other Stuff

10 XP can add 5 points to a statistic,
100 XP can add an advantage/ability OR upgrade an already existing advantage/ability.

Fight will include cube dice rolls:
1- You miss
2- Strikes a worse area
3- Strikes a worse area
4- Strikes as expected
5- Strikes as expected
6- Strikes critical area

Damage is affected by the rolls of the dice, and is closely tied to strenght.
Various strenght types to various things (control S. allows for control of enemies, distance S. allows to hit enemies from further away.)

Damage drains Health.

If you have more stealth than an enemy, you will be able to attack them from surprise, giving you a lot larger chance of critical hit.

Speed determines how fast can you cast actions - at 20 speed it’s 2 actions/sub-round, and it scales as +10 speed = +1 action/subround, easy to understand.

@fralegend015 @doomlightning @Ferrus_coloni @willow

[Ferrus_coloni]

Action 1: override Enkefaros’ and Waterzooi’s natural safeguards, imitating the effects of an adrenaline rush, and allowing them to use more of their strength

Action 2: dull Loki’s feelings of tiredness, allowing them to catch up with the rest of the fighters

[willow (they/her or yours are was/were)]

A1: split my swarm in two(swarm 1 = 5/6 big swarm, swarm 2 = 1/6 big swarm), sending the smaller swarm out in a wave all directions but towards the start area, and the big swarm right.

A2: send all bees already near the belgium-blobs to attack the blobs

[aah31415 (Possible Error Message)]

@fralegend015 and @doomlightning I need your fighting votes.

By the way, the Idea of this forum game stemmed from another one I had, that being “Thrive Community Battles”, where the forum users would be transported into an arena and fight various “forum villains”, like kikygames or futur3.

The reason I decided to go with TGBing is because of it’s lore…

[fralegend015 (Shroudmaster)]

Action 1: Move away

Action 2: Attack

[doomlightning (The Invisible Aztec Dodo God. probebly cooking something here, or not? ^_(o_0)_^)]

1. investigate red enemy in secret
2. if possible - GM the enemy, if now, invategate more

BATTLE 1 - TURN 6

Somnium, seeing that all two other fighters are now about to fight multiple enemies, decided to override their natural safeguards, causing Enkefaros and Waterzooi to be a lot better at fighting now when they are near foes, it has also made Loki Swarms a lot faster at moving.

Waterzooi meanwhile decided not to immedietly attack the Belgium-blobs, instead they started to spy at one of them, which thanks to lack of movement didn’t notice the strange creature south of them. With enough data gathered, Waterzooi tries to change this foe’s behaviour…
(Rolled 4)
The Belgium-blob starts to vibrate in a strange manner, attracting the attention of other ones nearby… Then, it suddenly became all yellow! It looks like it’s friendly to Waterzooi now, but the other Belgium-blobs are getting ready to attack it…

Enkefaros moved out of the way of the three foes, but soon it unleashed a distance attack…
(Rolled 3)
Despite being hit hard, the enemy lives, albeit with a serious injury.

Loki’s large swarm arrives at the scene and attack the injured foe!
(Rolled 2)
(Rolled 3)
While the insomnia of this fighter, Loki managed to hit the foe lethally killing the Belgium-blob!

+5 XP to Loki, Enkefaros and Waterzooi, +2 XP to Somnium!

am i allowed to turn a swarm that doesn’t contain all my bees into like, a skeleton with just the muscles necessary to do a specific action, and then use my next action to disperse it into bees?

[Ferrus_coloni]

Both actions: focus on accelerating cognitive functions, slowing down the fighters’ perception of time, allowing them to plan their actions in advance

[aah31415 (Possible Error Message)]

I guess you can do that.

[willow (they/her or yours are was/were)]

in that case, that is what i will do

[aah31415 (Possible Error Message)]

what will be the “specific action”?

[willow (they/her or yours are was/were)]

punching the belgium blob right in the center

[aah31415 (Possible Error Message)]

which blob do you want to attack?

[willow (they/her or yours are was/were)]

the one right next to me

[fralegend015 (Shroudmaster)]

Action 1: Attack

Action 2: Attack

[doomlightning (The Invisible Aztec Dodo God. probebly cooking something here, or not? ^_(o_0)_^)]

1. use the conver to fight the others enemy
2. GE ones again the enemy tl use with me

@doomlightning

GE ones again the enemy tl use with me

You mean you want to upgrade the friendly blob?

BATTLE 1 - TURN 7

Somnium focused all it’s efforts into making other fighters perceive time slower, making them gain more actions…
(At Turn 8 LOKI, ENKEFAROS and WATERZOOI have +1 action)

Waterzooi has sneaked up the the allied blob, attacking a hostile belgium- blob to the right of them!
(Rolled 5/6)
They hit the foe right where they wanted, causing the enemy to die!
(Rolled 5/6)
(Rolled 2/6)
The two remaining belgium-blobs attack the allied blob, causing it to lose some health!
(Allied blob health went down from 10/10 to 2.5/10)
The allied blob hit the belgium- blob just east of them!
(Rolled 6/6)
Despite being heavily injured, the friendly blob managed to cause a blow which killed this foe!
Waterzooi casted another genetic change onto the modified blob, causing it to regain health, albeit now this fighter has used up a portion of it’s energy reserves.
(Allied blob health is now 10/10)

Enkefaros used it’s distance attack to destroy the swarm of belgium-blobs surrounding Loki!
(Rolled 6/6)
(Rolled 5/6)
Two of the blobs have been destroyed, one of which was really oblirated by this attack!

Loki’s big swarm has transformed into a human form, however as not all bees were present on the site it lacks skin. Still, it’s very strong.
While at first worried about being surrounded by 3 foes, the destruction of two of them made this fighter a lot more confident in killing the third one!
(Rolled 1/6)
Sadly, the insomnia caused Loki to be too sleepy to hit the enemy, which hit Loki Instead!
(Rolled 4/6)
The belgium- blob hit Loki where it wanted, causing some damage!
(Loki [as in all it’s swarms] loses 5 health)

It seems like that the eyes have appeared again high above the battlefield, seemingly preparing something which will happen very soon…

1: Extra Form
2:

@willow

overstimulation immunity: the user’s brain adapts to the amount and types of stimuli it gets and actions it needs to perform at a time within minutes, resulting in the user being functionally immune to overstimulation

3:

@willow

decentralized body: the user cannot die from destruction of one vital organ, as they have multiple copies of every vital organ, and thus every copy of at least one vital organ must be destroyed for the user to die. the user can also start growing more of any organ on command, but it takes time to grow them, even if cells can just be tilapia-dteleported in in the shape of the organ, as generally tissue will need to be moved and spawning all the cells at once will simply make the whole thing either fall apart or otherwise not function.

DISADVANTAGES:
1:

@willow

legless: the user does not, and can not, have legs. if the user attempts to make legs, with a leg defined as a limb that has the intended main purpose of locomotion by pushing against the ground or a wall, the limb will disintegrate or be turned back into its raw materials.

2:

@willow

insomnia: the user is physically unable to sleep. they don’t have a biological need to sleep either, but they still feel the effects of not sleeping.

DESCRIPTION:

@willow

single entity
stronger but less agile than Numerous Bees

Numerous Bees
weaker but stronger than single entity form

@willow

Loki has no legs and any legs they try to make will simply vanish as soon as they appear, and as a result they had to know how to make limbs for flying, climbing, swimming, limbs to use the ground to rest, and all-purpose limbs built to do everything but just happening to originate in a spot that makes them useful for locomotion on ground to work around their chronic and incurable leglessness. unsurprisingly, the form they often find themself the most comfortable in is that of not one, but several, and up to thousands of, large bees. of course, as they can shapeshift and keep their most important part in a magical big words pseudoscience dimension, they have removed parts of their central brain they don’t need or want, like their internal thermostat(the bees have their own and having one dedicated to all the bees is simply a bad move), most of the medulla oblongata, as insects are small enough to not need much of a circulatory system, but these bees do breathe, and they all breathe in sync, and their breathing pumps their blood. when they are in bees form they have to modify their auditory and visual processing centers to hear and see things properly, but due to the great amount of bees they do away with their chemoreception processing centers and replace them with something to let all the bees know what bee is smelling what thing and let all the bees smell what all the other bees smell. in bees form they typically feel the need to be doing between 300 and 10,000 things at once, and can do so with their multiple bodies that can communicate near instantly through the magical sci-fi handwave dimension, said bodies also put themselves entirely in the dimension when they are nearing death by anything that won’t continue killing them once they are in the magical electromagnetism dimension(things that will include poison, viruses, parasites that enter your cells, cancer, and prions.).
as Loki is not able to make chitin, their bees for their bees form instead use a keratin exoskeleton with a bone inner lining for muscle cells to bind to, and when the exoskeleton needs to be shed, bones are summoned in their place. Loki also cannot produce venom, so instead for their stinger they use highly concentrated ammonia with all the toxic metals from the bee it’s produced in mixed in.

in ‘human’ form Loki cannot aqcuire brain damage as they keep their brain in the magical sci-fi big words pseudoscience dimension at all times, but they can still ‘die’ if their body is destroyed, but they are still alive when that happens, they just have no anchor to the universe and thus cannot remove any cells from the magic cells dimension, and have to wait until the next battle for their body to respawn. they can also ‘die’ in a similar way in any of their forms, whether or not they have multiple bodies, but if they have multiple bodies all of them must be fully destroyed to destroy their connection to the real world. in forms they have one skull it generally makes a hollow ‘thunk’ noise when knocked on as it is actually generally hollow in those forms, unless they fill it with smaller copies of their internal organs so they can turn into a head octopus if decapitated instead of loosing an anchor to the real world.

@willow

Loki is a human bard multi-dimensional changeling who tells their foes that their magic is very much not magic and is in fact [insert big sciencey word here] for the sake of chaos and just chaos, and that they sold their ability to have legs to an alien that calls its species the belgiums for the knowledge to do all the things they do, and that they were a human but the knowledge they had fed into their brain cannot be comprehended by a human brain so they couldn’t stay human and keep the knowledge, so they kept the knowledge and cast away their humanity. they were actually never a human, their magic is very much magic, the only knowledge the belgium blobs gave them is how to use the magic, and the knowledge is fully comprehendable by the human mind, it’s just useless to the human brain without access to the specific kinds of magic they have. Loki also likes playing instruments and threatening to cast vicious mockery on people who are being rude with no reason.

Loki likes cats, axolotls, octopi, clownfish, and sponges the most due to cats just being cute chaos contraptions, axolotls both being cute and having really good regenerative abilities, octopi being masters of disguise and extremely intelligent, clownfish literally being able to change their sex at will, and sponges being the best shapeshifters on earth, second only to Loki themselves. Foods Loki likes include pretty much anything a honey bee or a cat likes, chocolate, bitter almonds(they can just regrow the parts of the body that die), and the cerebrospinal fluid of kids who intentionally abuse animals they find in alleyways(not like they’re gonna grow up to be good people anyways, but they’ll still probably survive, they’ll definitely have the worst headache of their life though).

yes, my character is just a joke character based on how NBs, including me, tell people who can’t seem to get our pronouns right to refer to us as if we were a swarm of bees, but with shapeshifting, an optimized body and brain for it, leg(o)lessness, and chronic, incurable, and possibly weaponizable insomnia mixed in

2:

@Ferrus_coloni

pupeteer, other beings with a defined nervous system can be influenced to act on Somnium’ behalf, thinking its will is their own

DISADVANTAGES:
1:

@Ferrus_coloni

disembodied: lacking a physical form of its own, interaction with the physical world is only possible through its “puppets”

DESCRIPTION:

@Ferrus_coloni

Somnium is humanity distilled into its most elemental form: the desire to survive and improve, the recent attack of the Belgium blobs has reinforced this concept to the point people have begun attributting a name and will to it

Waterzooi

ADVANTAGES:
1:

@doomlightning

Equilibrium zone: [Passive] Up to a certain range, anything that is defined as some kind of ability or energy at a higher frequency than ultraviolet, is neutralized, including mine. It is possible to change the range, but usually no more than 6 m. (Electricity is affected by this, kinetic energy [e.g. a projectile] is weakened upon entering the area but not eliminated).

2:

@doomlightning

Genetic manipulation: [Active] Allows a certain control over the genes of other creatures and their modification.

3:

@doomlightning

Dimensional Weaver: [Passive] Able to “borrow” other’s traits from anywhere possible, if not the most effective.

DISADVANTAGES:
1:

@doomlightning

E=MC2: [Passive] Any use of an ability means use of energy, and existence in which some external energy source is required.
[Equilibrium Zone allows you to ‘draw’ energy from the environment, only if it is real energy such as electricity, laser, lightning, etc.]

2:

@doomlightning

Vulnerable: [Active] A simple hit can cause great damage.

DESCRIPTION: (DOESN’T EXIST)

STATISTICS:

STEALTH: 20
SPEED: 20
STRENGHT: 10 Normal Strenght
HEALTH: 15/15 + Partial Protection (Abilities)
EXPERIENCE: 12
(DISADVANTAGE) ENERGY: 3/5

ABILITIES:

PASSIVE:
Equilibrium Zone: Energetic and Kinetic attacks are weakened if they are within this zone, regenerates energy if such attack is commited

Dimension Weaver: When Hit an enemy, temporarily adds the best advantage to The Fighter (Lasts until the fight with this/those entity/entities ends)

E=MC2: Special Energy Statistic which measures how many Active Abilities can you cast.

ACTIVE:
Genetic Manipulation: Can Modify an enemy’s genome, changing it’s statistics, abilities and even alignment. You need to first inspect an enemy in order to use this ability.

MISC.:

Other Stuff

10 XP can add 5 points to a statistic,
100 XP can add an advantage/ability OR upgrade an already existing advantage/ability.

Fight will include cube dice rolls:
1- You miss
2- Strikes a worse area
3- Strikes a worse area
4- Strikes as expected
5- Strikes as expected
6- Strikes critical area

Damage is affected by the rolls of the dice, and is closely tied to strenght.
Various strenght types to various things (control S. allows for control of enemies, distance S. allows to hit enemies from further away.)

Damage drains Health.

If you have more stealth than an enemy, you will be able to attack them from surprise, giving you a lot larger chance of critical hit.

Speed determines how fast can you cast actions - at 20 speed it’s 2 actions/sub-round, and it scales as +10 speed = +1 action/subround, easy to understand.
