Tekkadan's Devil King (Challenge)

by ptl

Only the most skilled of the battlefield are named after those beings of destruction. There is one who was prepared to die for his family, but instead, finds himself in a familiar but foreign land, where all myths are real, and with the slaying of a God, becomes literally one, a Campione. What will be waiting for him and his mechanical partner? "What do say we do... Barbatos?"

Well, these last days I was watching various battles from Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans and I have to say they impressed me a lot, especially Mikazuki with the ever-evolving versions of Gundam Barbatos. Heck, I even imagined he could beat a god, if him beating that Mobile Armor to pieces says something.

Then, I imagined him transported to the world of Campione, after his last stand, with both his body and Lupus Rex in pristine conditions… and beating the hell out of a kaiju sized Heretic God, thus creating this challenge.

Well, the thing is that, like every Minovsky physics of the Gundam multiverse is able of things impossible in both normal life and the majority of realistic science fiction, the physics that Ahab reactors operate are so out of that world that, inexplicably, Ahab waves can also function as an anti-magic hammer, reducing the effects of magic, NOT cancelling it, only weakening it.

Combined that with the nano-laminate armor, that is able to resist kinetic long range weapons AND high-output beam weaponry, and the fact that the armor is reinforced by Ahab Particles, we have a sci-fi nanotechnological armor able to take a beating even when subjected to the wildest of Authorities.

Well, I don't expect that first battle to be easy, people become Campiones due to monstrous strength and technique, wits or luck, or a combination of them all. Result: the recently resurrected Mikazuki and Barbatos Lupus Rex could end up again in a state of near death/destruction after a badass fight, only to resurrect again with Mika as the Eighth Campione and Barbatos as a summoned vehicle/mecha similar to an Authority.

About Barbatos: yes, it will be in Lupus Rex form and after Mikazuki's transformation into a Campione, becomes something of a Super/Real Robot hybrid: it will be summoned through an aria that I live to your imagination; its performance amplified to supernatural levels due to its connection via Alaya-Vijnana (again, godly improved to give its user Matrix reflexes or superior) with Mikazuki; will gain a human-sized form that acts as armor (like with Infinite Stratos crossovers) for smaller opponents; and any Authorities called upon in its Mobile Suit form will be scaled to fit with its size, so expect kaiju (inspired by Neon Genesis Campione fic and other Super Robot media) and normal-sized battles (thanks to inspiration to IS crossovers).

Oh, and did you know Barbatos is the demon number 8 in Ars Goetia? I think there will be some analogies and symbolism due to Mikazuki being the EIGHTH Campione, that and the fact that he pilots a giant robot named after that demon.

As for Mikazuki, well… I don't know how to portray him to give an idea, kinda like with Inaho from . But I will say one thing: even if I don't care that you give him a harem, please, add more male members to his circle, and no I AM NOT INTO YAOI. The only (and obvious) reason is that harem stories where the protagonist is the only member of the cast and the rest are girls, or viceversa, give the others of the same gender as the protagonist their moments of glory and/or more time in scene AND are members of the main cast. At least the sequel of Utawarerumono has of these. OCs of your design will be predominant through they can interact with the canon cast of Campione.

If you are interested, you can do it on your own or contact me to discuss things.

And about my other challenges, I don't want to be a beggar or something like that, but some of my ideas have potential that I don't have the talent to match that easily. So please, reconsider them, ok?
