[Exalted/SMT] Shard of a Broken Sun

Reader mode
[X] Climb the stairs

I'll probably change this later.

I was just about done hammering something out when I remembered Baughn mentioning that she still has some motes left and she's currently transformed with Su and has all of those Medicine Charms argh argh argh

Well, assuming she still has access to them at the moment. Essence channels are down, but the Shard's still there.

[x] Go with the stairs; elevators aren't something you want to use when the earth is shaking, not to mention the power issues. But first...
[x] Ask Ikuto what happened from his perspective when everything hit.
-[x] Rather than a ghost, maybe you're something akin to a chara at the moment? One way to find out...
--[x] Use some of those Medicine charms to check out your body before trying to do anything with it. You probably don't have all that much to spare, but if you can fix yourself up so that the only thing keeping you down is that fact you're not in there, you can try transforming with yourself. Do make sure to explain what you're doing to Ikuto and Utau before trying anything though.
---[x] If things look acceptable, break transformation with Su and try to transform with yourself. If you don't think your body's well enough to get back up once you're inside, then at least break transformation with Su, you're going to need energy for the climb. Either way, take breaks as necessary while ascending the stairs.
 
[X] Climb the stairs

Using elevators when there is the chance of an Earthquake is bad.

Amu + Su = Amulet Superdoctor

Though limited motes might be an issue for that.

24, to be precise. If you were in creation you'd be able to regenerate them on your own, but as it is...

This will also be a problem for anyone you might choose to awaken, using purely Solar mechanics.

This sounds like a job for SCIENCE!!!

And possibly engineering.

Are the various Craft skills are seperate disciplines, or are there houserules in play regarding that?

Hold up. Couldn't we activate chaos repelling pattern then and use that to regenerate motes?
 
[X] Use Flawless Diagnosis Technique on the other Amu, self and unconscious Charas.
-[X] Adapt accordingly based on results of diagnosis.
-[X] If nothing urgent shows up, climb the stairs.
--[X] Take regular breaks unless Diagnosis gives other advice.
[X] Try to figure out what's with the quakes

Flawless Diagnosis Technique is fairly quick, costs only one mote per shot and gives detailed information on what might be the problems faced. Also Amu's Lore is high enough that she can probably get a fair assessment of the nature of the problem without any charms.

Well, in theory. What you've actually got (and active at the moment, in fact) is something like "Chaos Repelling Pattern; Kagutsuchi edition", though. It doesn't let you regenerate motes.

If we've got that many motes, then knowing exactly what's wrong with everyone seems like a good idea.

...wait, is that going to make us eat the WP surcharge for external charms while it's up?

My main concern is that we don't use the elevator or otherwise strain local power sources, honestly. A blackout would make all the shit we just went through utterly pointless.

No. In fact, it's even more lenient (to Amu) than the seal.

It's still got half about twenty minutes of life.

...what is it supporting that the seal wouldn't support? The other Amu? Our brainmeats?
 
Hey Baughn, i had a bizzarre idea that will potentially allow us to bypass using the Lock and the Kay together to fuse with all of our charas, but i need to ask you a question first: are the charas different enough from us to target them with a spell that target another creature and the caster? Because if they aren't, Unity of the Closed Fist for everyone!

Or we could master the spell, master the lock and the key, fuse with other chara users and then use the artifact to become an horrible abomination against Magic, Science and Nyarlatothep (Philemon will be instead pretty happy with our uber chara fusion).

Good lord.

Well, that's apparently a thing. You currently can't use sorcery, however, much less access the solar circle. If you could use that spell, it'd probably get just as ridiculous as you imagine.

So either Amu will cease to exist as soon as Chaos-Repelling goes down because her Mind/Soul has no Body and her Body has no Mind/Soul or Amu will get slingshoted back together. Well that and/or Su will become Amu's new Mind/Soul because she's inhabiting an empty body right now.

Or nothing in particular will happen, or something in between will happen, or...

You should be confident enough that I won't arbitrarily kill her, though. :)

Well that's kind of good I guess. I'm honestly starting to hit the "*Eye roll* Wonder what's going wrong this time" phase.

Heh, I suppose it could be read that way. Honestly, though, this version of CRP has essentially zero effect while you're outside the dragon seal itself. Inside it... well, you've already seen how Amu reacts to that thing.

EDIT: ...also, when I think about it, you might be thinking that what's happening right now is something going wrong as opposed to, well, DeSu2 canon.

... You cannot imagine how much i laughed evilly since i read your answer. :D

And i just got some new ideas to test! We should definitively try to fuse with a Persona user, use the locket on the Persona, use it with both the Persona and our Charas and only use it with part or all of our charas and then try to summon the Persona. And we cannot forgot demons, the weird guys which transformed into demons and all the other beings around the SMT!verse!

We will do a lot of SCIENCE!

... But firstly, is the Salinian working active at least on us?
