Thank you for volunteering yourselves, brave Executors! And welcome to our very first Boss Combat Test! Think of this as a tutorial to help both you (and me!) work out the ins and outs of this system. Check the Combat section of the FAQ to get a brief primer on how things will work. By testing things out now, we can ensure things run smoothly when the game itself opens. And to help us along, your friendly local Executor Rei has volunteered to serve as your boss encounter for this run! Doesn't she look so happy to be here?
"... Why do I have to do something pointless like this...?"
Attagirl!
During this fight, the Executors will have access to their base Executor abilities and their one unique power that was chosen before the test started. To make things more interesting, Rei will be using the same abilities at a higher tier than her opponents. Oooh, how exciting! She will be using ice-based powers that allow her to create ice from the moisture in the environment and reshape them into anything she pleases.
Which is a problem, as you will be fighting her in an enormous underground lake, illuminated by... no actually apparent lightsource? It's Purgatory, don't worry about it. The cavern is massive, with the ceiling too high to touch and the walls quite a way out from where you find yourselves positioned for this fight. The four of you are stood right in the middle of the lake, but thankfully, the water is only ankle-deep. It won't impede your footing much, but stay on your guard, anyway!
Since she's a gracious boss, Rei will be allowing the Executors to make the first move against her. Each Executor should make one comment under this heading that will designate your "turn" with the actions you intend to take against her. You may also coordinate beforehand to team up and combine your actions into one comment, but this is not necessary!
And of course, talking is a free action.
When you have submitted your actions for the turn, your numbers will be rolled and compared against Rei's Death Number which will determine the outcome of the turn. Once all Executors have submitted their moves for the turn, Rei will then take hers and combat will begin in earnest!
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ping me in the mod plurk.
That's all! Have fun beating up this tiny waif of a girl!
