Jojo's Bizarre Grail War Part 4 : A Z-Machine Adventure
(1/155) > >>
Hello Purvis:
>You are Lily Humboldt!  Magus of Calumet City and a Master in a very unusual Grail War.
>Your Servant is Robin Hood -AHEM- Robin Wood, who is of the Archer Class. The two of you have gotten along well so far. You have met or at least heard of several other Servants in the Calumet City thus far, which is curious because as near as you can tell, the Grail is actually someplace in Delaware. That it's even on this continent is strange enough... Your servant has encountered Berserker, and the two of you decided to leave him be. You have had a battle with Rider; who turned out to be Henry Ford under the command of none other than Charles Koch; and came out victorious. More distressingly, you have also met Assassin, whom you have identified as Gavrilo Princip. He took to killing Charles himself, employing a Noble Phantasm that apparently strikes at the world order itself.
>Thankfully, the police didn't batter down your door that night as you slept, and even more thankfully Assassin was nowhere to be seen. Instead, you made your way out of Illinois while the nation went more and more insane in the wake of the murder of a highly influential billionaire. Passing through Indiana, you encountered Lancer and his Master, a Native America woman named Kimimela. Your meeting was tense, but ended somewhat peacefully, until Berserker showed up and you left them there to deal with it. After overnighting in the soulless husk of the eastern-most midwest, you make your way through the Appalachian Mountains and encountered another master, this one with a servant whose class didn't fit any of the ones that you expected. Just contemplating his information gave you a sense of disquiet. This time, things broke down and you ended up taking a more lethal solution to deal with things.
>Finally, you managed to reach your goal of Delaware, and had a reasonably peaceful and restful night. You then moved on to the Rehoboth area, where the sensation of the grail is strongest. You patrolled the area, found a reasonably secluded place to camp, and managed to find the Overseer, who is just about as clueless about the whole thing as you are; you were the first Master that she encountered at all! You managed to locate Caster and his Master, tracing them to a motel, and luring them out to beaches not far from your camp for the showdown, eventually overcoming his wind and mana distortion abilities through the power of screaming really loudly. You managed to part with the master on reasonably amicable terms, and engaged in a magical oddity that seems to break all the known laws.
>You got some rest and have woken up fairly sore. The news is full of even more of the nation going insane. You have been using the morning to take it easy.

>You have a seat close to Archer. "Feeling any better?" she says, not looking up from her work.

Stuffman:
> "Kinda stiff, but I'll be alright. More anxious than anything. There are so many things to keep track of, I'm feeling a bit scatterbrained."
> "One thing at a time, I guess. Once Koch's mana battery isn't lighting us up like a christmas tree, I can start thinking about how to use it..."
> "Archer, you don't use much mana at all, do you? You didn't even notice the drain at all last night until you tried to use your noble phantasm."
> "If you had a huge amount of mana, is there anything interesting you could do with it?"

>"Probably not, to be honest," she says. "I'm not very...magical in nature, I guess."

Stuffman:
> "No complaints here, it means I can throw around a lot of magic without worrying about it affecting your abilities."
> "Anyway, there are lots of things I can do with a huge amount of mana. The only problem is that I need time to research them."

>"Yeah, that could be difficult," Archer says, as she grabs another split branch and starts to work it in.
