Darklight: Yeah, sometimes my Keyboard lags from my absurd typing speed and it doesn't register lines, I am trying to avoid that in the future with harder proofreading but thank you for spotting them.
The Towering statue that sat upon the bridge and stared down at the group was now shaking, with rock fragments and dirt falling down from it. Kirby standing before it, blank faced and soon seeing a colorful snake creature towering before them.
Golden lights soon spraying out and shining along the beast soon revealing its true colors. A golden segmented body and a sharp red head with golden eyes that stared down at the group, as Kirby stepped forward.
" Is that... a machine?" Rin was confused staring at the snake that towered over them. Archer who was watching Kirby, noticed his face and how he definitely recognized this foe.
" No, this might be a creature from the Dreamstalk. Didn't expect something so big to be our next foe from it." His eyes close as he flows the magic circuits in his body to start pumping and lightning seems to cackle from it as a simple iron bow was made in his palm. " Kirby! Inhale!" A strong throw and the bow was spinning towards Kirby who quickly inhaled it.
Kirby leapt into the air and made sure to spin in place as countless arrows spins around him, and soon stuck into his head and soon exploding out into a purple hat adorned with a plume, with a shining light in Kirby's hand to form a bow. " Poyo!"
" He's like an Archer now! That ought to be helpful! Come on Kirby! Lets make this Snake into a nice metal belt!" Illya jumps off of the Berserker as Heracles was ready to battle. Kirby, Archer and Berserker, an odd team of two long range fighters and one very close range fighter. What a Dreamy battle. Their Opponent? Coily Rattler, an ancient revered snake, beloved by those that dwell in the skies.
Boss Battle ( Kirby: Triple Deluxe)
Coily lets that tongue flicker as its eyes began to glow and it showed a startling feature of itself, it awas fast, very fast, like lightning it moved along the ground and tossed carsthat were emptied out from the mass panic, causing many Cars to be sent flying and exploding along the bridge. Causing smoke to clog up the bridge and hide visibility of the beast.
Berserker wasted no time charging into the darkness, only to find himself caught in the maw of the snake and soon slammed along the ground with brutal slams before sending him flying along the bridge, smashing into a large truck and leaving him growling and steaming.
Kirby aimed his bow high and rapid fired countless shots into the red face of the snake, causing it to hiss from the impacts raining upon its face, booming echos came from the impacts as the snake recoiled from the strikes and glared at Kirby. It recognized this foe. Died from him, it now had a focus.
" I see, so the weak point is the face." And Archer made sure to summon his own bow and summoned several arrows to his fingers and began to fire quick shots right into that face, causing explosions of smoke and dust.
From that smoke, the snake raced right out of the smoke and before Kirby and armed that tail of his, soon swinging with an abnormal force that took several cars and Kirby into the sky and causing him to spin and land on a car, pulling back further onto that bow and soon firing an arrow that flew through the air like a missile, exploding right against Coily's face.
Archer made sure to leap over Cars while firing arrows into the back of its head, causing its attention to Divert towards the human. They existed in this place, no, wait. It was at this point Coily truly took notice of everything around it, this was not Popstar... was he on another world? Didn't matter, these were foes to crush and he most certainly would.
Feeling the archer firing at his face, that tongue of his flickered out and soon caused his tail to swing and cause countless cars to go flying, including the one with Archer on it, soon leaping off of the car and finding himself falling towards its open maw. Switching from his bow to his twin blades, he made sure to spin to the side and leave a mighty gash in the snake's face, or would have, did his attack leave a scar on that face of his.
Landing on the ground and making a quick path to dodge out of the way of the tail that smashed down where he was, Heracles didn't waste anytime in coming in like a meteor and swinging that mighty stone sword into the face with such force, rings of air actually exploded from its face and smashed it right into the beams of the bridge, causing a part of it to cave in from the sheer force and caused the bridge to sway.
" Whoa! Careful! We don't need this entire bridge going down!" Rin was even moving back to get onto a more safer part of the bridge. " I don't have the money to fund a bridge repair ya know!"
" Oh relax, this bridge is sturdy! Even my Berserker can't destroy something like this with an Opponent like this!" And Illya was rather proud of this, before seeing Coily Rattler rearing up and sinking its fangs into Berserker, drawing blood as it quite literally, began to drag him around all over the bridge, even going air borne as he slinked around rapidly around the bridge openings while chewing away on Heracles. " What!?"
Kirby knew this attack well, he was hit by it, and was hurt by it alot, but it wasn't like this for him, that weird red stuff was spraying out all over the bridge from Heracles being hit by it and when it landed on the bridge again, it cocks its head back and soon tosses Heracles' body right along the bridge, causing him to bounce like a splaty mess with each slap to the ground he made.
And Illya was caught off guard by it, was the physical force of that thing's bite strong enough to get past his defenses? He was still very much alive but dazed from that much moving around, steam bellowing from his wounds as red blotches were forming, showed his engine was riling up, even if Dizzied.
The snake remained still for a moment, before a loud boom came from it as those segmented parts began to rotate and spin those parts before they detached and began to fly around the bridge in a horizontal twister, smashing the ground of the bridge and cars, causing a storm of a shaking bridge.
And Rin was not having it as she was grabbing onto the ground and feeling her shake back forth between sliding to the right or sliding to the left. " Oh my god, is this thing trying to take us down with it!?"
" Most likely, how troublesome!" Archer was able to toss his blades and gash along the face of the snake, before a part of its body smashed into him and smashed him into the bridge, causing him to dent the steel and almost break it from the sheer amount of Blood that rose up from his throat and he slammed down to the ground in a crumpled mess. " S-shit!"
Rin seeing her servant take a brutal impact from that, winced, but not as bad as what she saw next, the head of the creature firing Forward like a missile towards Illya, who was caught off guard by the sight and seeing the maw of the snake opening before her. Her heart beat almost becoming a light speed rondo when she closed her eyes. But no pain followed when she heard the chomp, no smell of blood or anything, just a blast of wind that battered her face.
When her eyes opened, she saw the snake being held back and automatically assumed that Berserker got to her in time, but she did not see his hulking form, because holding the snake back, was Kirby. Gripping onto its back, with his bow on his back, he soon leaps up into the air and curves backwards, doing a brutal back drop to the snake's head, and causing a crater to form underneath the impact as Illya watched in stunned silence, they all did.
And he wasn't even done either, letting him go and spinning around to his front, he grabbed onto that head again and does two double front flips and slammed it into the ground again, causing it to bounce. But he was still not done, leaping off of the ground and throwing three powerful forward kicks into its face and charging up an arrow as lights gathered to its tip. " Poyo!" Waiting for the perfect moment to fire and it did
The arrow shot right into that mouth and soon caused a whiplash effect, with the head flying back and smacking every segmented part, the head smashing into each one and forcing a connection between the parts, causing them to lock back in improperly and smash it along the bridge, causing it to rock more back and forth as everyone watched the sparking snake.
"...I can see now why Illya was so confident in making friends with this thing." Rin was sweating at the sight of how Kirby just decimated the snake for coming after his friend like that. Kirby watched as Coily rattler attempted to get back up, only to fall right back down and exploding into a massive bunch of Stars and Munny that rained down from the sky. " What."
Kirby wiped his face before striking a pose before a very familiar thing occurred. Kirby performing his famous dance of victory upon defeating that powerful foe as Heracles rose up and finally shook off that dizziness off, in good time even, because they had a new challenger, arriving in the sound of him clapping, his shoes tapping along the bridge and his unsettling appearance, which even caught Illya and Rin off guard.
" what's going on here!? Someone like this is a Master in this war!? This is nothing at all like the past ones!" Even Archer was caught off guard. Why?
Because this bald man that approached them, had 5 eyes upon his head and a sickly green complexion. " Amazingly well done, for a bunch of primitives on a dirt ball planet." His claps came off as vastly sarcastic, and Illya and Rin could tell that he was looking down at them just for being born on this world.
" Don't tell me that you're behind that snake, because if you are, I definitely got a bone to pick with you!" Rin was instantly up on her feet, her finger out and a Gandr shot firing right towards the man, only for the shot to be repelled by a hexagonal barrier that appeared out of nowhere. " Wuh!?"
" I would not make such a pitiful being, I am merely here to thank you for taking care of it so it will not get in the way of my ambitions for this...Holy Grail." The male made his intentions known, along with the odd alien marks on his hand, the command seals, that this was a mastering this war. A Dark Master.
"...There's no reason to fight for a Tainted Grail you know, any wish you could make-"
" Would only cause in utter destruction, I know, why do you think I want such a tainted thing?" those words caused a chill to go down Rin's spine and Illya was unnerved as well. " Judging by those looks, you are surprised. It is understandable, children do not understand the greater nature of superior adult minds like myself. It is for one reason alone that I know."
" Dark Masters, already know about the corruption of the Holy Grail." Illya put two and two together as the multi eyed man clapped.
" Smarter than your age shows, most impressive, mage. Indeed, from the outset, we know that this Grail is tainted with evil, but that is exactly why we want it. With its power, our rage against the Gradians, Vic Viper itself, will be fueled to heights not even the gem of my genius can handle. I care not for your flawed Science known as Magic. But if it can turn the tides, then I, Dr Venom, will embrace this lesser form of power and claim the power of the Grail!" Dr Venom, an enemy from a far off star System that fought against Vic Viper and its pilot, has arrived on Earth to gain a Cursed Power.
" I didn't understand any of that but if that means you're an enemy then, Berserker, crush him!" At Illya's command, Berserker was already bearing down on him, that sword coming down onto him, only for everyone to see that sword being repelled with a powerful arm, and him skidding back. His mind might be gone but his senses were sharp, soon skidding to a stop, everyone soon saw the man standing there in silver armor and seeing his hair spiked up like a carrot's head of leafage.
" Ho, as strong an arm as I heard, Heracles. Did hear you used to be the strongest Servant in this time, shame things change when unknown factors show up." The male was grinning, before seeing Emiya up and firing an arrow right at his face, he didn't even bother to move from the arrow. The sheer burst of wind that came from the impact, buffeted the bridge for a moment but his skin did not show damage,, there was not even a ripple along his flesh, he took the damage and wasn't bothered by it at all. " And an archer, interesting, but unfortunately for you, not interested in a weakling, so how about ya stay out of this and let me and the Zerker have a bit of fun."
The way he shrugged off that arrow without any form of impact, it was very clear who he was but could that be right? It could just be a highly durable servant, Archer didn't have time to think considering the Rider of Darkness charged right at Heracles, with the intent to battle him.
Elsewhere...
An entirely serene sight, an island in the sea where the breeze smelt of salt, a smell Ziden was very in love with due to living near the sea, but he was wondering where he was, there was no way this was japan, that was until he looked around. Obvious Greek designs and building material was around him as he walked around.
The sound of his soles hitting marble hit his ears but soon, the ear of arguing flooded them, the male could tell it would be the natives of this island, and he was quick to hide behind a pillar and peak from it, as he noticed two small girls seemingly talking down to a tall girl he knew well. " Medusa...and those two...must be her fabled sisters...is that what they look like?"
Small girls and their words were stinging Medusa quite sharply. " Honestly, how in the world is it that you were born our sibling when you aren't even beautiful like us. Tall, uncomfortable to look at, the opposite of slender and petite. How can you be a Goddess of our Standing but be so. deformed?" The left one tore into her because of her figure, for some reason, the small one things her beauty comes from the fact she is petite and unappealing?
" The only good thing about you seems to be your capability to fight off any foolish mortal that comes to this island. Oh Sister, if only you were beautiful like us, you would certainly not be a brute like that and a well respected Goddess with Mortals tending to their every need." Yeah, he definitely didn't like those sisters.
" yes Sisters. Sorry, Sisters." and she didn't even bite back, she take their barbs and kept it down. To be a Master, meant to look into the past of your servant, something he did not know. He didn't know the horrors of her dreams he would soon see in the future. But he was yanked into a deeper dream against his will.
A dream that shall not be shared nor does it need to be, because to the world of the Awake, He begins to stir.
In Ziden's home...
With a lurch, he ended up snapping awake, only to feel searing pain tearing through his body as he looked at the red stained bandages along his body, seems he was still hurting from taking Enima Elish to the body. His body, down to his core burned from the attack and even moving hurt, but he needed to get up. The feeling of a coin in his hand, caused him to lift his hand and look at it.
A pure black coin that had a bat upon it, the magicks within sealed from him accessing it. The second dream he had, revealed things and what he needed to do but he was not ready for it yet. He would have to grow more as a Rider. To be ready for the foe that lies at the end of his path.
" Master, you shouldn't be moving, you know." And that voice, he recognized it from the dream, his eyes turning to see Medusa sitting there, with a book in hand.
" Hah, not a big fan of being bedridden, even if it hurts, I can't stand being in a bed." Pocketing the coin with the others, the male would figure out how to activate it. " So, is thats how it was like with you with your siblings?"
She did seem to flinch at that, before calmly standing up and looking over at him. "...Ah, so you saw into my dreams. Hmm, indeed, it was like that, scoldings from my sisters for not being as beautiful as them. But I learned to live with it and keep them safe from any would be heroes."
" Beautiful?" Aside from them looking like, young kids that are older than they look and if their claims of being sought after all over Greece was true...he really didn't want to think of Greece in that way. " Honestly, in this era, you'd be the beautiful one.'
Of course, she was quick to shake her head before offering up her shoulder for him to learn on, which he promptly fell onto. " your words are kind master but, I do not see how being in this era would change that." Once the door was opened, he noticed how empty the home was right now.
" Trust me, if people saw your sisters and then you, they'd pick you. If they picked your sisters well, high chance they would be sleeping in a jailcell that night." Ziden was honest atleast, before she let out a soft chuckle, before bringing him to the front door and opening it, causing his hair to blast back by the sheer wind of the impact.
" I will have to ask about the meaning of that later but this...might be troublesome." Medusa's eyes focused on the two who happened to be fighting and Ziden felt an odd surge of anxiousness and rage in the air.
Artoria's Blade clashing with another blade as the air crackled with lightning and wind, a knight with Blonde hair that looked alot like Artoria but younger was there clashing in the middle of his yard.
" to think that I would be in a Holy Grail War with you, Father! This time, I'm gonna take that head of yours off and take my proper place as King!" Darkness danced along her blade as Artoria saw the light of Excalibur flicker for a moment, forcing her to leap back from the brutal slash that tore apart the earth with that blade of hers.
Artoria knew something was different with Clarent than usual, it seemed keener, sharper, and for some reason, it was affecting Excalibur but just barely was able to sever its flow of light. Artoria spoke no words towards her son, her grip remaining on her blade as she watched Mordred charging at her once more
The brutal swings and clashes they had, showed a truly rare thing, a battle between two Sabers, the strongest of the classes ( at this point anyways) that should never meet in any normal war and even Shirou was impressed. Their movements danced along the lawn, tearing up the ground and the sparks that sprayed out from each clash between them.
Two knights who once battled to the death outside of Camelot's borders, were now fighting at their absolute Peaks, and this time, nothing would stop them. Well, aside from Artoria getting the upper hand when she stomped forward and swung her blade upwards with such force that Mordred's blade clean from her hands with a single strike. Mordred watched the light gather to her blade and watched her King swing at her with the force of a bullet train and was almost certain she would be badly injured.
CLANG!
If not by the fact that something clashed against that was not Mordred's armor, but instead, a series of stop signs that appeared out of a gap in realty before Mordred, something that Ziden and others were very, familiar with.
" My goodness, girl. When I said I wanted you to test your King, I did not mean to tear up the yard I worked hard on maintaining." That familiar alluring voice and how Sisigou looked over at her while he was lighting up a smoke.
Mordred herself, clicked her teeth when the woman appeared before them, Yukari, wearing that trademark white and purple dress while she had a large bug wiggling between her fingers, before she squished it with ease, Artoria herself seemed confused.
" What...Lady Yukari, what is it that you mean? Did you-"
" Send Mordred here to test you to see if you are truly capable of being able to survive in this wilder war? Yes. Seems that Ether solved a massive part of your mana issues." Yukari stepped down onto the floor as Mordred got up and went to pick up her blade and placing it on her shoulder. " And to make sure she wouldn't be holding back my worker here."
" What." All that came from both Ziden and Reimu when they learned this fact as Sisigou stepped forward.
" Indeed, I am, a hired mage under the employ of Miss Yakumo here to aid her in her attempt of destroying the Grail here." Sisigou stated this plainly while Ziden and Reimu blankly stared at Yukari once again.
" W h a t."
" What? Come now Icrim, its not that I do not trust my most prized Warhead, but it is always best to have a nice follow up bomb in case the first one doesn't succeed." Yukari fanned herself with her fan as she points to Sisigou. " And he, out of my mage candidates, was the best one to pick. But alas." And the woman sideeyed Mordred as the Camelot Betrayer growled at the Elder Youkai. " out of all swordsman to summon, I would have vastly preferred if he summoned someone good like Miyamoto Musashi or, even Okita Souji. Hell, I would take any of those fabled Shinsugumi meatheads. We had to get the little backstabber."
" Why you shriveled ol-" Mordred was about to swing at Yukari, before she felt that cold gaze coming from the Youkai, one of how a lion looks down at a lowly deer acting above its station.
" You know, I never understand your plans Yukari but why are /you/ after the destruction of the Grail. I can understand the dumbass not wanting it falling into the wrong hands but why-" Reimu was cut off by the opening of a fan and Yukari's wide teasing grin.
" My Dear Reimu, now why would I ever let idiotic humans get their hands on a power they certainly don't deserve?" The cold tone of that delivery caused Ziden to actually recoil, even with as long as he has known her, seeing her go serious made his blood turn cold. " So when Ziden was making his move, I decided, why not help a family member out and send him some worthy back up."
Shirou himself was confused at this, so that means, this Master of Darkness was on their side.
" Yep, name is Sisigou, I'll be working with you guys, hope we get along." He seemed like a cool guy atleast, but Mordred was still huffy about the whole situation.
" hah, and I'm Mordred, felt good going at my old man again but since we're gonna be on the same side, I can be a good knight again and help you guys out!" And that wide grin of hers, even if she caused such a headache to Artoria, all the king could do was sigh, that was, before the loud sound of armored feet were approaching the yard, and Sisigou was quick to turn around with his shotgun aimed at the horde that was approaching.
Tall imposing knights, all standing well over 8 feet with over 250 pounds of muscle stomped towards the home like an army of darkness but Artoria and Mordred instantly knew exactly what army these beings belonged to.
" OI. THOSE PITCH BLACK AND BLUE ARMORS!" Mordred's sword already sparked life, as did Artoria's as she stood tall next to Mordred.
" Indeed Mordred, only one person has knights of that design under her command." And Artoria gripped onto her blade as the Knights stopped before them.
" Foolish illusionary Heroes!" one of the Knight's bellowing voices seemed to directly point out Ziden and Reimu's group. " Along with the foolish Usurper King and the absolutely Failure Knight." Artoria and Mordred grimaced at those titles. " we have come to deliver only one demand. Surrender and our Mistress, her royal Highness Morgan le Fay will spare your pitiful lives."
The utterance of that name caused Ziden to actually widen his eyes. " Ah shit, of course things had to get even worse." Ziden was ready to take out his sword, before Medusa and Mash stopped him as they saw countless lasers from the skies raining down and tearing through the army and sending them crashing along the lawn.
" Honestly, we stay to ourselves and you get yourself in trouble Icrim?" The familiar image of the flying figure of Medea and her Master soon landed in the yard, as the remaining Knights saw this, especially with the towering figure of Berserker coming out of the background after a deafening explosion of his body hitting the backyard. This took all of the winds out of their sails
"...W-we have delivered our warning and words of our Mistress! I-if you don't surrender, then you will be struck down by her glory!" The Knight who forced himself to his feet was quick to gather up his forces, were it just against the Gensokyians, Ziden and the two masters of the Sabers, they believed they had a chance. But seeing the Berserker, they lost that bluster instantly, and seeing the other Caster appear truly took the wind out of their sails as they were quick to disperse back into the streets.
Ziden was about to give chase before he heard the blaring of an Alarm from his jacket Sleeve as Burroughs screamed to life. " Hm? Burroughs, what's wrong?"
" Atmosphereic Scan is complete, Ziden. Atmospheric reading has turned up a Code Blue, I repeat, the reading has turned up a Code Blue." Hearing that term, Ziden instantly let out a highly annoyed sigh.
" Goddamit, I knew it, I knew this was gonna be a pain in the ass! Fuyuki is in the middle of a damn Distortion!" Ziden's words caused Yukari to sigh, this really was about to be the most annoying pain in the ass.
Earlier in that night...
Rider of Darkness was proving to be a scary match for Heracles, their weapons were clashing and causing the very bridge to shake with each powerful clash they had on each other.
Spear that clashed with a sword and the bridge shook each time they clashed, the Masters on the bridge felt that wind tore past them and even cleave gashes into the cars around them.
The Rider was unscathed from the clashes but Heracles, he was very damaged from the blows that snuck into his flesh between those strikes. " Come on Heracles, don't tell me becoming a Berserker rusted your skills this badly!"
Illya watched as her servant was being overwealmed but why, why was this happening, there was no way that the weapon he was using was that high ranked to get past Berserker's defenses, was it?
Rider of Darkness was living true to his name, she noticed, dark flows of energy were coming off of him and each time he struck into Heracles, darkness clung to the giant and seemed to be hindering him somehow. " There!" And a solid pierce right into the neck of the Berserker as Illya watched Heracle's head almost cleanly detached from the impact, spraying the area in his blood. But he was not done, a quick leap back and a crouch as one could see winds spinning around his spear, pitch black winds that wrapped around his spear before he shot forward like a missile.
And then they saw it, that blade piercing into Heracles' chest like it was made of paper and the gore that sprayed out of his back as he left the earth and sent flying through the air, spinning as his wounds began to close but effectively watched as the battlefield left his view.
And the Rider of Darkness, let the blood pour down his spear as he slammed it down into the ground, which caused the bridge to violently shake as Venom raised his brow. " enough of the games, Rider, kill the other 2 Riders and that pink menace, now."
" Hah, no worries, I was gonna go-!' And the loud creak that came from the bridge as they all watched the supports slowly snapping along the bridge. " Hmm, perhaps we went a bit too wild on this bridge, oh well, I can kill the masters and the Archer before it comes-"
And he didn't even get a word in edge wise, as Kirby leapt right at him and inhaled him right into his mouth, discarding his ability and holding the large man in his mouth as he was fighting to get out. " What."
A flat what left everyone on the scene as they watched Kirby holding the rider in his mouth, before firing him out of his mouth like a missile, shrouded in a clear orb, surrounded by a golden star as it came right for Venom who was surprised by what he was seeing, soon being smashed by his servant into the bridge, which turned out to be the final straw for it.
CREEEEEN CLANG!
The loud groan of steel and metal tearing itself apart as the bridge quite literally exploded from under the masters and Archer, causing the Masters to scream as they saw the waters below quickly getting closer, only for them to be snatched up by a golden light that soared around and caught them, soon flying off into the night.
The warp star, Kirby's famed vehicle that can travel the stars in mere seconds caught all of them and quickly brought them all home while the Rider of Darkness got his master and landed them on the bank.
" Tch, no way am I catching up to that thing, even if I were to have a grail boosting me." Rider of Darkness softly sighed, while grinning. " The Strongest Servant of the War and I was able to beat him down and take a life. This Blessing of Darkness really is something." Clenching his hands, he could feel the power running through his Spirit Core as Venom looked to the skies.
He didn't care much of his opponents, he was gonna win this war, no matter what and he had the means to certainly do that.
Trivia:
1. Medusa's sisters in fate look very young compared to most versions of them due to that being what they deem, the pinnacle of beauty back then and considering that they had alot of worships and certain types of men back then, its clear that it went to their head.
2. Coily Rattler appeared this early cuz I may have forgotten when he was actually fought but hey, cool snake bridge fight.
3. Distortions will finally be truly explained in the next chapter.
4. Blessing of Darkness is what is supercharging the Dark servants into being so monstrously strong compared to their usual versions, akin to how Lostbelt servants are leagues stronger than normal servants.
5. Kirby has access to all of his Smash bros moves, with or without his Abilities, hence why he was able to do, respectively, his Back Throw, forward Throw and Forward Aerial on Rattler.
6. Sisigou was always planned to be the solitary good guy of the Dark masters, because he is very based.
Author's Note: Wow, been a while, eh fellas. If you were wondering where ya boy was, Forgotten Land happened. And I have been addicted to peak Kirby game, which is ironic cuz this is a Kirby x Fate fic where the Kirbyness is about to hit its peak with the next boss. But I am glad I got this chapter done while I was peeled away from the game. Lot of fighting here and the next chapter is gonna be a Fate traditional, lore dump chapter, this time for elements of this mass brand of Crossovers involving Ziden and his wacky teammates. Explaining such things as Distortions, first mentioned in the Super Hero Taisen story and the Balancing Job Ichigo mentioned at the end of said story. Its gonna be fun, because who doesn't love big lore dumps. Anyways, glad you guys have been enjoying this story, the views this is getting is pretty big and I love all of you dorks, as always, leave a review to tell me how ya feel about the story so far. Take care and stay safe, keep those hands washed!
Oh yeah, the random note here is nothing but advice for OC makers, people who have Ocs but are afraid to put them in their stories, or want to make one, if you are not one of those people, ya can just skip to the bottom to review if ya want.
Random Note: I have noticed from peeking about that several readers and friends of mine have been making OCs for the site and have been hesitant due to the infamous Mary Sue thing that everyone dreads. Because it has been so, violently warped by people, I will give this advice to you as someone who helps with alot of OCs.
Your char will not be a Mary Sue/Marty Stu as long as they don't fall into all 3 of these catagories, which was the classic way of finding them and is still the way of finding them.
1. The Char is universally beloved and hating them is a crime worthy of universal condemenation.
2. The World of the Char revolves entirely around them, events do not occur with them, meaning the world is essentially in stasis.
3. The char is fundamentally perfect to the point where even veteran chars who have just been training them are humbled by them.
As long they do not fall into those three pitfalls, your OC will not be a Sue of the Mary Variety, there is nothing wrong with giving your char powers, making them a mix of races or anything of the sort, it is your char. While Criticism is always fundamental of growing as a writer, just remember that some people just despise certain types of chars. As long as the OPness doesn't cause a stagnation like it does for the majority of Isekai stories, go wild.
If you saw those three points and had this weird tick of ' wait, I know a char like this' you probably remembered Rey from Star Wars and Korra, as they are very much MS to the max.
Have fun with your char and make brilliant stories with em.
