Beta Shadow challenges prototedd to a battle!

@RedBomber :

I want to accept something, but alas, I cannot accept what I have not seen, for I have totally not clicked on that link. Surely not. Not me, never. Nope.

@Radiated Wraith :

Oh dang, guess I shouldn't have just skimmed. That's actually very clever. Leave it to you to have rather creative gimmicks.

Also, new cards are accepted. FMR is indeed a dangerous foe, but only in particular circumstances. And I suppose the 10% chance of getting a *** card makes it justified, anyways.

Also also, the CPU thing ain't a bad idea. In fact, it could return to the "TCG Colloseum" that the last thread had. Though, that'll have to be for another day.

Also also also, fair point on that "battles may take too long" comment; I shall make that change.

@Radiated Wraith :

- In a battle, up to 8 robots are on the field at a time: one as the currently active card, and 7 others to be placed on the bench. The currently active robot can switch out with these 7 benched robots at any point, but at the cost of a turn.
- Additionally, if the currently active robot is disabled, the robot is discarded, and replaced with a robot from the bench. Only when this happens can a robot card be moved from the deck and into the bench.

In other words, you won't be stuck with the same 8 robots. I might also allow particular switch-out exceptions, such as (potentially) your Civil Blader's ability.

That said, some comments:

- Not sure how important "show top of the deck" stuff it'd be when everyone's deck is public, anyways.
- I'd say something about deck arrangements at all, but now you had me thinking of the possibilities. So, I might do some form of deck shuffling.
- For the City Streets, though, I should say that a x1 power multiplier is oh-so slightly redundant.

Aaand that's about it. Other than that, good cards. They get a pass.

@ch4s3man : Hate to break it to ya, but I already claimed Scratch and Grounder.

Tell you what; We'll let you create as many DS clones you desire, as many as you wish.

But you must ask us permission (in private messages) for characters that have already been claimed.

I will be making a list of claimed characters and who claimed them later on. Said list will be posted in the main (top) post of the thread. Sound good?

Reggae preps for takeoff.

KIZMA-

---

Throughout the galaxy, if one focuses enough, they can see an orange blur speeding through it, tackling what seems to be a dark blue one. Everywhere this blur goes, mere moments later, a singular word booms loudly, echoing...

Psh, yeah right! Oh, by the way, a universe of evil versions of ourselves? Yeah. REAL original, bud. Real original, SQUAWK!

Reggae gets into a stance of his own.

Besides, as if I'll lose to a version of me that is neck deep in kizma!

Unfortunately, Reggae was still hovering ove-

...In an instant, Reggae DS is slammed into Neptune yet again.

I'm still right here! Right here! Now, square up! Square up, SQUAWK!

---

A note was left in front of Trill, stating only:

Yes. -R

Huh? Who? Who?

Reggae looks out the window and

---

An orange blur is seen speeding past the Moon. However, it cannot be seen by the untrained eye.

---

Reggae DS is thrown directly into the planet.

THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!!!

---

The entire group ducks. Meanwhile, Legend Beta uses Concrete Shot to create a large concrete block, then uses Super Arm to lift it up and throw it at Dweevil once the attack lets down.

A waiter passes by Snipe Joey and Sniper Giuseppe, carrying Narcian's pizza.

Being a chef runs in-a our family! Take a look:

Sniper Giuseppe shows Snipe Joey his family picture, which shows him and a whole lot of other Sniper Giuseppes grouped up together... In Italy?

Coda looks at the thin sheet, then back at Mighty.

...Huh. I'll give you credit, Might Guy; You actually did something right.
Let us go back, Metal.
PERMISSION TO TERMINATE THESE INFERIOR ORGANICS AT ONCE?
Hmmmm...
...
.....
..........
....................
........................................
...No.

The two disappears.

Hmmm, nope. Can't say I have any questions. Delta?
Well, I do have one, though if you have no connection to Gamma at all, I'm not sure if you can actually answer this. But, there's no harm in asking, so...
This... constant power struggle amongst what I can only assume to be alternates of GammaGuardian... If Guardian can even assumed to be the true original, at this point. Where did they all come from? Is it like us, where we were created from universal splits like in the Absurd Roleplay, or...?

---

Great, now perhaps there's a way we can set back Spooky indefinitely on bringing back Beta Devil...
...Unless you DON'T happen to know anything about the whereabouts of the Crystal Eye... Would you, Mighty?

---

At incredible speed, Ninja Man Z sends the rocks hurtling back at Titan Dweevil, causing them to explode on him by time the detonation occurs!

Not so fast, you bug-like freak! You're going down!

Legend Beta Man, Bt Ghost, and Ninja Ghost arrives on the scene.

And where exactly have you three been?
We had to go back because somebody wanted to stay behind for a moment.
Seriously? You should've just left him, he would've caught up.
(Seriously?)
Do you really trust him to be on his own?
(Seriously!?)

(Could this be... Is this the 13th Chaos Beast- ...No... the 13th Lord of Chaos that Drakath was talking about?)
(...No... Something doesn't add up here. Who or what...?)

The visions of the past dissipate, as well as the circle.

Well that was, like, eventful... Let me know if you, like, need me for anything else.

Shaggy heads on his way to order another sandwich. However, Bt1229 walks up to Shaggy.

Hey, so, uh... I'm kinda new around here- not entirely sure how I even got here, to be honest- but... Who... ARE you, exactly?

Shaggy laughs for a brief moment... Then notices a confused look on Bt1229's face.

...Oh. You're, like, serious.
Well, the name's Shaggy, man. And I'm, like, a member of the Trio of Origin, dude!
...Trio of... Origin?
The Trio of Origin... The origin of the modern Internet's Multi-Omniverse, man!
...Well, like, it's technically more of a Quartet, but-
Multi... What? I'm afraid I don't follow.
...Heh. I'd, like, expect as much. Not many mortals are, like, knowledgeable about this sort-of thing. Allow for me to explain, man.

---

---

...So my being here... Is a potential danger to ALL of reality? ...Is this the 13th Chaos Lord's plan?
I'm afraid not, man. This was part of a plot of a villain from, like, our side of the spectrum. Sorry, man.
...So, what do we do?
That's, like, what we'll need to figure out, man.

Curious, Reggae and Bt1229 joins in the circle as well.

Like, ok, dudes and dudettes! Let's, like, take a peak of the past...

The floor that makes up the once-metaphorical circle begins to glow a light green, then slowly transforms to a purple color... Then disappears with the rest of the Pizzeria, as it is replaced by the sights of...

---

*The time of which the post where Motsuki saw whatever traumatized her was made. (Page 216, Post #16 )

Like, sure.

Shaggy walks up to Motsuki.

Now, as I said, I could, like, read her mind... But that would force her to, like, relive that memory, causing the paralysis to get worse.

Shaggy turns to the others.

...So, like, I'm gonna do something else instead. I'm going to create a mirage of the past. We'll be able to see what's going on in full detail, and also, like, avoid altering history to do so.

Shaggy holds out his arms.

Like, gather in a circle around me, dudes. Only those in the circle will be able to see the mirage of the past.

Do we look like therapists to you?
Dude.
Do YOU know a way to actually help on that?
Well, no, but-
Then why pretend to have all the answers? And what do you expect us to do, anyways? Just ask? Chances are, this "Motsuki" friend of yours won't want to talk about it.
We'd like to help, really; The problem is, we just... really don't know how. We can't exactly read minds... or see the past.
We also have our own issues to face, anyways. ...So, uh...

The three robots awkwardly head on their way out.

...Well, that didn't seem too nice, did it?

Suddenly, yet another figure approaches the group...

Like, Ninja Ghost isn't entirely used to being a nice guy, from what I know. But they weren't lying when they said they don't exactly have the ability to figure anything out themselves.
...But, like, reading minds? Seeing the past? ...I, like, don't even need 1% of my power for that, man.

---

As the three robots leave the scene, a fourth one watches from the shadows...

...So, this is where you've been all this time... Honestly, I'm surprised you'd make friends with them of all robots...
Still... You've got a lot of questions to answer for, Ninja Ghost.

...Right. So, someone created a split in the timeline, creating this universe. And as the Beta Shadow of this particular timeline, my goal should be to help out with whatever's going on. Just one question remains...
...Where am I supposed to start?

---

Moto goes over to relay the order. Meanwhile, Legend Beta and Bt Ghost enters the building.

I thought for sure that he came with us...



?

Moto brings the two's attention over to Cold Man on the table.

Huh, wow. I don't know why I didn't notice that.

Not that whatever that wizard is up to any of our concern. That belongs to a DIFFERENT set of heroes, 'least as far as I'm aware.
(Wizard?)
(Wizard?)
Oh, there you- ...Wait. That getup...
I figured since I'm no longer a Pseudoreaper, I gotta provide more firepower than I would a simple Bass recolor.
Besides, if we're going to be up against Trio...
* ...Then I might as well prepare for the Absurd.

---

*This was Ninja Ghost's appearance during the near end of the Absurd Roleplay (Page 89, Post #11 ). This was short-lived, however, and was replaced with his original recolor appearance since he was "retiring as a villain" (see Robot Master Mystery Dungeon, Page 11, Post #1 ) up until his (previous) promotion into Pseudoreaper.

Moto turns to Narcian (in the proper roleplay this time).



Meanwhile, a particular figure approaches some of Trill's group...

Hey, so, uh... What's the recent going-ons around here?

---

Beta Shadow finally responds:

Hm, I see. Well, any chance you'd be opposed to telepathic communication in any way?

...Hey, do you ever have that feeling when something about the world is... differen? That something, somewhere has kinda just been... Added?
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....................
...Nope. Can't say that I do.

---

...It feels so distant, though it is very close. His personality. His mind. His thoughts, and dreams. His memories. They all just feel so... Not like him. Like this isn't what he's supposed to be. Like he is meant to be something else... To be someone else. Were those thoughts and memories... Even him? ...He feels as though the answer is yes. ...But, at the same time, the answer feels as though it is also no, simultaneously.

He spends minutes pondering upon this. Upon himself, who he is... and who he's supposed to be. Those minutes started to feel like hours. Then those hours, days. Those days weeks, and those weeks, months.

...And then, for the first time- Or is it the first time?- ...He wakes up.

...
The just happened?
