Dongle: “Follow me if you must, I have some fish to fry”
Snaps his finger, jewel on his vambrace (lighter than gauntlet, metal glove) lights up, looks sleeker and more efficient and effective than Jeice’s glove
“Follow me if you don’t care about the casualties”
See another person come out of the shadows, looks authoritative, wearing something on his face, his sword, initially rigid like a longsword, snaps his wrist and into a whip, launches it at a bystander
White mist get yanked out of him as the body just stands there, completely motionless
Nim and Yul, Dongle Labs
At that exact moment, a portal opens in the corner of the fire boiler room in the Dongle Labs
“Looks like that bounty didn’t work, who invited you guys here?”
Nim: “You”
Dongle: “I never took you two to be involved with the Count, he was a good business partner”
Dongle: “What a pain in the ass”
Yul: “WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU?”
Dongle: “I’m going to be the one who will end your pathetic existence”
Dongle reopens the book, it reignites, his gauntlet is now glowing, glowing a bright red
Dongle: “We can do this the easy way and negotiate, or you can die, your choice”
Nim: “I don’t really want to die but I don’t think you have anything worth to negotiate for”
Yul tries to cast Hold Person, it doesn’t work, Dongle’s armor glows, and Yul gets blasted with fire
Dongle snaps his fingers, turns to the side and makes a punching motion, a giant mechanical fist bursts through the room, who punches Nim, and then Dongle uppercuts and grabs, and another hand erupts out of the floor and attempts to grab Yul, who avoids it
Bloo and Sarah
Sus man (AKA flaccid sword man) stabs the almost petrified civilian, the body collapses but doesn’t move, it’s completely stiff
Another man throws a bomb, and 2 civilians die
Sarah: misty steps forward, then walks forward 10 feet to be next to flaccid sword man, attacks with spellcleaver
3 guys climb down from the roof
Bloo: Casts Mirror Image and Mind Sliver
Dongle Labs
Nim: shoots Dongle with arrow, misses (16 doesn’t hit?), and moves away from the mechanical hands (disengages)
Yul: uses a finger gun, shoots a high speed blood bullet at Dongle
Dongle and Nim: WHAT THE FUCK?
Dongle: “Guess Theodore wasn’t the only one they did weird shit to”
Dongle’s hand is pulsing, “I guess this is the one they’re all trying to replicate”
Dongle snaps his finger, see three automatons wake up, then tries to move away, Yul opportunity attacks with the fan, “I WILL THUNDERCLAP YOUR CHEEKS”
Dongle is now standing in front of the furnace
Dongle backhands with one of the automaton hands at Nim, then punches Nim
Town Square
Flaccid man attempts to stab Sarah and attempts to steal her soul, but Sarah stands firm, then flaccid man attempts to slice again but misses
Sarah: Attacks with spellcleaver, knocks him prone, and he can’t cast spells, his eyes seem lifeless and dull, as if there was no light in them at all, as he falls prone, he just disintegrates, see this black purple vapor, and it swirls around, and the vapor envelops a different one of the bomb wielding dudes, Sarah moves 30 feet towards the dude on the ground
Bloo: moves 30 feet, cast lightning bolt in a line towards the bomb guys, they fall to the ground and fade away, into a gray that fizzles out
The last bomb guy dashes towards Bloo, walks with a deadpan expression towards Bloo, dead inside
Dongle Lab
Nim shoots Dongle again, misses (dirty 20?????), the arrow hits him straight in the chest and it clinks and falls to the ground
Nim spawns a mage hand, it tries to pick up some coal, and it immediately gets incinerated by the furnace, not the book, the book is still heating up
Yul: moves up to Dongle, explodes with?? hits both hands
Yul tries to read the book, it’s on fire
Wilfred does a weird gesture with his hand, claps the hands together around Nim
Wilfred snaps his fingers, the automata walks over, Wilfred tosses the book into the fire, the fires inside the forge glow, from red to orange to blue to white, it’s heating up, very fast, with a reticle on Nim
Town Square
New sus vapor man: hits Sarah with sword, hits once misses once
Sarah: hits twice, can’t cast spells, vapor man mists up, and instead envelops the last living guy who is in front of Bloo, hear an exasperated sigh, hear a voice, a familiar voice, “Eugh would you stop meddling” It’s Gabriel
Sarah: “Gabriel, can you do me a favor” Sarah middle fingers
Bloo: Hex + 2 eldritch blasts, his body evaporates into a purple mist, Bloo catches the purple vapor in a yogurt jar, and then takes the portal, Bloo and the mirror images t pose in the corner
Nim: disengages and thunder waves in front of her, pushes one of the hands back towards Bloo, who yells angrily at Nim
Yul: moves aside a little to avoid the reticle, takes a punch from one of the hands, and then guiding bolts dongle, the bolt clinks off his armor
Dongle: looks over, moving his hands, trying to guide something, he’s aiming the reticle, and also tries to shocking grasp Yul, Bloo silvery barbs Dongle counterspells, Yul hellish rebukes him, the flames spin around him, absorb into his fire, absorb into the forge, the armor glows a deeper red, Dongle laughs at Yul
Dongle moves his hands over and attempts to grab Nim, it does not grab Nim
The 3 automatons move closer to Nim, attempt to punch Nim
Bloo: hex, strength disadvtg, hits one eldritch blast and misses the other, his armor is now glowing a brilliant bright blue
Nim: moves around hand, disengages the hand, stabs Dongle with cold embrace dagger
Dongle’s left gauntlet starts to glow, and his eyes start to glow
Dongle willingly lets himself fall into the fires of the furnace
The forge burns and erupts, hear some maniacal laughing, “y’know having interesting clients is always great for business, but y’know it comes with other perks”
Hear the screeching sound of metal gears grinding to a halt, hear a weird hum, a familiar hum of “shit’s about to get real”
The furnace doors shut close, hear wilfred laughing as now you see the furnace rise up out of the ground
Inside the furnace is a cockpit controlling the mechanical arms that he’s been controlling, established a link to his magnum opus
“Having powerful clients has its perks, such as cheating death itself, now then, are you willing to negotiate?”
The blue lines on his face look familiar to the lines on the people’s face in the order of the fish, WB initials can be seen
The machine is immune to radiant damage
Yul: disengages and moves back to be next to Nim
The reticle is gone, the automaton’s eyes are glowing, the mech has a will of its own, and it lasers in a line in front of it
Sarah: Tries to attack the hands, miss
One hand tries to grab Yul, the other hand tries to punch Sarah
Bloo: Casts Hunger of Hadar, centralized on the automaton’s head, loses Hex concentration
Nim: attacks the hand next to her with the rapier, manages to puncture a hand into the metal, the hand falls to the ground, the main head of the cockpit hears a slight explosion and hear Dongle scream
Yul: burns the other hand in a holy light as it fades away, hear another explosion coming from the main head, Yul moves back a little
Sarah: walks up to one of the drones, first hit misses, second hit slashes the drone clean in half and it crumples to the ground
The drones attack Sarah and Nim, Bloo silvery barbs Nim but doesn’t affect the outcome, gives advantage to Nim
Dongle: hear a scream of his pain, and then hear a thud as the head of the mech that he’s piloting crushes into the floor
Bloo: moves 10 feet to the right and eldritch blasts the drone in front of Nim
Nim: stabs the drone in front of her, drone dies
Yul: attacks the other drone
Sarah: misses attack on drone in front of her
Bloo: eldritch blast the last drone to smithereens, here one last explosion from inside the hunger of hadar, see the corpse of dongle get ejected from the hunger of hadar
We all immediately t-pose over his corpse in a circle
See the armor he is wearing has cooled down, his eyes have been completely drained of color, and the vambraces he’s wearing are still intact
Yul walks over and looks in the automaton/furnace, WB was written inside (Wolvred Bongle reference)
Loot his vambraces, the left palm is made out of a stone material, not metal, but only the left palm
The right palm is metal
The stone is an “sending” stone, can cast sending to the holder of the other stone
The gems in vambrace have a little bit of magic less, enchantment, this was how he was able to control the giant mecha psychically by mirroring what they were doing by doing it himself
If the wearer does not have at least 15 strength, their speed is reduced by 15 feet.
Peak Craftsmanship: You gain resistance to fire damage and all incoming damage is reduced by 2.
Infernal Vengeance: When you succeed on a saving throw, you may use your reaction to cast Hellish Rebuke at 1st level (2d10 fire). This can be used twice per long rest.
