Yeah, on one hand, Leviathan got punted over the horizon. On the other hand, Emrakul the Promised End is now chilling in on your city...

What, this guy?

But just look at him, he's obviously the Hugbringer. Who wouldn't want him spreading his tendrils of joy through their city? Look how glum the people he hasn't gotten to yet are on the left, compared to the celebration on the right!

Omake: Sunny's Segway Sabbatical

As Yuuta finished unloading all the supplies that baachan and her friends had brought to teach, the Shrine Maiden, tea ceremony; he once again wondered at what point had his life had become one of baachan's fanciful stories of the homeland with spirits, demons, foxes that turned into women, dragons, and gods.

He put some distance between the Shrine Maiden, Souta, his baachan, and all of baachan's friends before they found more for him to do. He was caught off guard when the wolf came over to him, rather than stay with the Shrine Maiden for the tea ceremony.

The wolf starred longingly at the Segways, without his knowledge of doing so he found his hand idly petting and scratching her head in comfort. He had seen a lot of strange things around Brockton bay lately, but a wolf starring at a Segway the like most guys his age starred at a motorcycle . . . . and there came a drawn out whine as she starred up at him.

It was crazy, insane, stupid, and . . . . becoming par for the course of his daily life since the Oni had given the order for them to help clean up the shrine. He didn't even bother asking his baachan as he could already knew the answer he would get back would ('Yuuta, if she wants to ride around on my Segway, help her do so.') he pulled baachan's Segway away from wall. He held it in place as the wolf stood up on her hind legs and she placed her paws on the handlebars before full stepping onto the Segway. She gave him a few licks to the face for his assistance.

"Okay keep both paws on the handle bars at all times, lean forward to advance, lean back to reverse, always lean into a turn and take it slowly." Yuuta instructed just going through the motion at this point, with a woof and a nod he stepped back as the wolf's paws held onto the handlebars as the Segway slowly advanced forward, stopped, went backwards, turned the Segway toward the Shrine entrance.

"Be sure to bring it back before baachan gets done teaching, the Shrine Maiden, tea ceremony." Yuuta yelled over the loud VRRRRRR and a Wooooo~! as she accelerated out of the Shrine disappearing out of view. He stared at the entrance for a few moments as his mind played back everything that had just happened before deciding what to do next. He suddenly remember that the shrine had been stocked with sake; at this point he didn't care about the scolding he would get from baachan later, right now he couldn't remain both sober and functional after all this.

Clockblocker both hated and loved monitor duty.

On the one hand he didn't have to patrol around the city on foot except when he was lucky enough to get paired with Vista or Kid Win. Vista with her powers could make blocks go by in a few steps and Kid Win would let him ride along on his hoverboard. Patrolling with Gallant always ended up learning way too much about his relationship with Glory Girl. Patrolling with Aegis turned into a lecture on how he was failing in his duties and needed to improve.

On the other hand keeping watch while the rest of the Heroes and Ward patrolled was boring, mind numbingly boring, especially since they assigned him further punishment detail the last time he had decided to spice things up by narrating their actions. At least he got to eat and drink while keeping watch.

So far today the most interesting thing he had seen today was a convoy of little old Asian ladies riding segways to visit the shrine that Brushstroke and Good Dog frequented. Upon reporting such a sight he had been told to stop making things up to alleviate his boredom of being stuck on monitor duty, again.

He was just taking a long drink of soda when the sight on one of the monitors forced him to shoot it out across the floor. Spew soda on the monitors and he would get a lecture from Armsmaster about drinks around expensive equipment, spray it on the floor and he would only have to mop it up later.

As he choked out the last bit of carbonated beverage that tried to enter his lungs, on the monitor he watched Good Dog with its tongue hanging out, sped out of the Shrine on one of the old lady's Segway and down the alley way. He picked up the phone and his finger hovered over the first digit to call before freezing up. He was known as the joker, the jester, the class clown, the funny guy, which left his believable score in the negative values. He would either be escorted to M/S Containment within moments of giving the report or suffer even worse punishment detail since it would prove he couldn't be trusted on the monitor duty after that report.

He return the phone to its cradle and rested he against the desk. He would mention (Good Dog seen riding Segway) somewhere in the middle of a very long report he would have to write up at the end of his shift.

"No one would believe me anyway."

Rachel Lindt a.k.a. Bitch a.k.a. Hellhound took her dogs on a walk around the Docks. Calming down her frustrations from dealing with her teammates that didn't understand her just as she didn't understand them. The peace of the moment was shattered by a loud VRRRRRR that annoyed her ears and her dogs.

Turning around with a growl in her throat, preparing to use her power, she stopped at the sight of-

Not Dog

-rode by her and her dogs Woooooing~! as it went by with its tongue hanging out on a mechanical two wheel device.

She stared as-

Not Dog

-reached the end of the street and turned at the corner to vanish from view. She looked down at her dogs wondering if they had seen the same thing. The three of them looked up at her with begging eyes and whined.

"No." she stated and they whined louder with drooping ears as they looked down the street.

Life in Brockton Bay is a daily hell where one worried who or what would torment you today. Between the Nazi, the Asians lead by a Rage Dragon, the drug dealing Merchants, and being caught in the crossfire between the Heroes and Villians fights that further wrecked the city, was it any wonder that many sought any form of relief they could from reality?

Having completed his latest "transaction" with the Merchants to purchase the freshest "merchandise". John found a nice quiet spot to light up his first blunt of the day. He took a deep draw from it before slowing releasing it slowly, his eyes losing focus as all of worries flowed away. As he was about to take his second draw there was a loud VRRRRRR and he watch as a big white dog with its tongue hanging out sped by on a motorized two wheel thingie. The dog releasing a loud Woooo~! before vanishing from sight.

John slowly blinked after it was gone, looked down at his blunt, and broke into a fit of giggle "Damn, this is some good shit!" before taking a second longer draw wondering what he would see next.

OK the bit with Rachel made my day. I can only see this leading to the Brockton News reporting roving gangs of dogs terrorizing neighborhoods wearing sunglasses and bandannas to hide their doggy identities...

Damn you "Go Gently" why won't you update...:cry:

hich kind if shows the difference in cultures. In Western myth and religion, a church working with demons for any reason at all would be damned as heretics. In Eastern folklore and religion, such things are actually common, so long as the creature or force in question is not a threat to those under the temple's protection.

Is it wrong that I immediately went to Demon Exorcism methods, A contrast.

Western: FOUL DEMON BEGONE, THE POWER OF GOD COMPELS YOU!"

Eastern: Could you not?

Hey, if western demons weren't definitively capital E Evil, we'd probably be lot more polite about it too.

A better comparison would be the servants of Yami, not the weird neighbors with fluffy ears next door.

The Protectorate functions in some ways as a sort of law enforcement agency, so there's the question of appropriate escalation of force. Employing Heberts in this role could be... problematic.

"Console, this is Chessman. I've spotted a dealer. Merchant. He's got the bangle and everything."

"Okay Chessman, the BBPD can handle just one guy. Call it in and continue your patrol."

"No, I've got this."

"Wait, Chessman, remember what Piggot said last time! Please don't-"

"SHATTER THEIR SKY!"

Car alarms go off all over the city.

"Dammit, Chessman."
 
Halbeard might yell, but really having a Huntingpack of Warhounds and a Cadre of Warlords to field against the Endbringers will make Alexandria tell him to sit down and be shush.

Now we can discuss thi....*white paw hits table accompanied by the rumbling of thunder* right Good doG says no more derailing.
 
Whilst I applaud you guys' creativity, you're thinking too big (Yes I know this is heresy, doesn't make it any less true.)

All he'd need would be any darksteel creature from M:tG.
At least, for pretty much any problem this side of an endbringer.

Or just Darksteel Forge plus any high damage but fragile miniature.
Danny's minions count as artifact creatures, right?

EDIT:
Now I've got myself thinking of how fun it would be if someone triggered with Yu-Gi-Oh powers.
Except the cards have real effects.

I wonder how turns would be counted...?

I don't think Danny's powers work on cards, just miniatures. Or is there an M:tG based boardgame now?
 
If you want to give him something bad ass, but NOT Game Breaking, go with this:

Why? Because 100t of fire power is good! Plus the rules are not really that complicated.
