Okay, I'm going to post a few graphics I think were alright in RoR, in place of the ones mentioned in the poll. Spoiler
Biased votes be biased :/
Caleb gritted his teeth as Ghost stopped his attack and claimed he was allied with Dane. He was wrong. Caleb had tried to attack Dane, and just as he had gone to do that that was when Freya and the others had attacked him. They were protecting him, they were keeping Dane safe. His old comrade then retaliated with his own attacks. As each of the shadows struck at Caleb, Caleb did what he could to defend against them; though that wasn't very much given they were shadows. Eventually, the assault stopped, but as it did the guardian of the light noticed the mark on his chest was a bright red. That couldn't be good. With his energy reserves just about depleted, Caleb decided to make one last effort. Satsujin had allied with darkness, and there was only one thing Caleb had that could possibly stop it. Throughout the 300 years of fighting the heartless in the realm of darkness, Caleb had created a suit of armour that both nullified most dark attacks and also imbued his own weapons with dark elemental energy. He held both of his hands together as he began channeling the magic energy required, and where a golden glow would normally envelop him, a dark purple one did instead. His body was radiating dark energy, but right as he was about to complete the channel, the mark detonated, and all at once the warrior found his body screaming in pain from so many attacks impacting at once. He wasn't dead, but he was defeated, and he knew it. Should Ghost decide it, he would be able to end him. "So are you going to kill me then? You're going to take out the last person fighting for what is right, the last person trying to stop people like Dane? Then go ahead and do it, go and complete your alignment with the dark!" Caleb yelled out. "Stop!" Temporarily abandoning the battle with the dragon, Audrey had stepped away from it to go and make sure her dad was okay, and what she had seen was horrifying. She didn't know who the man was, but she didn't care either. Huffing and puffing from exhaustion, the little girl stood in front of Caleb. He protested and told her to back off, but she turned and shot a glare at him. "No! Shut up, dad! You're not allowed to die!" she exclaimed, before facing Satsujin again. Shakily, she raised the keyblade her mother had used. The keyblade itself was almost as big as she was, and yet here she was holding it with fiery determination in her eyes. "Dane killed my mother. He tortured her, he made her suffer, and then he killed her, and now you aren't only going to help him, but you're going to do the same thing to my dad?! I'm not going to let you! I am tired of watching my friends and family suffer, so if you want to kill my dad then you're going to have to go through me first!" Audrey screamed at Ghost, tears flowing down her face as she did so. With Kross having not posted, Hunter could finally move on. His opponent was AFK and not actually moving, and for a brief moment Hunter considered KOing him there and then, but he actually had a moment of respect and decided not to do that. Instead, he moved Kross' arms so that rather than holding the weapon pointed at everyone else, it looked like he was just using it to pick his nose. With a snicker, Hunter turned and unlocked another keyhole with the keyblade Gwen had given him. One more lock to go....about damn time. Dane barely flinched as the punch to his temple hit, and even less as Lexcifur landed his own attack. He let the attacks hit; he wanted to show them how pointless it was to try to beat him. However, as the guardian grabbed onto him, he flashed a wicked grin. Releasing a sudden burst of malevolent dark energy, he knocked the son of the goddess and the angsty teenager away from him, before grabbing onto the arms of the guardian. He strained a little, but the guardian's arms could be seen stretched to their limit, before just a moment later they were snapped clean off. "Well, I did give you the chance to run" he stated, before leaping into the sky. When he reached the peak, he held up his scythe into the sky and a small orb of pure darkness appeared at the end of the blade. As he began descending, the orb rapidly grew in size until it was just a huuuuge orb at the end of the blade, at least six times bigger than Dane himself, before the Shadow Reaper swung the scythe at the ground below him just above Zavion and Lexcifur, unleashing a ferocious explosion of darkness and fire all at once.
"Well, can't tell you where the mouse is, there's probably a library around here somewhere, and right here's your hot date" Glen said, prodding Karina to go forward. Hopefully she caught onto the plan; if they could get close, perhaps they would find out more about Noneyah. What an odd name.
As someone who uses that word in his vocabulary on a regular basis, I can safely say you spelled the word "Oi" incorrectly.
Oh no, no no no. Nooooo. No. Not even a little bit.
You would think that, but Yuto is still winning so we really haven't
Skadi used Fire Surge/Dash on Jinx!
That's absolutely fine, thank you for the swift response. It's just frustrating with the amount of times I ask a question only to have a response...
Any updates on the podcast? I submitted the application a bit ago and haven't heard a word about it, so I'm just wondering is there a particular...
Caleb was actually surprised by Virgo digging their way to the other side, but he made no comment on it other than a brief thank you, before climbing through the tunnel. He'd barely made it out of the tunnel when he heard Quinn mention the real target being the guild masters. He gasped, it had been a trap all along and they had fallen for it. "If the guild masters are in danger, then we've got no time to lose!" he exclaimed.

Skadi used Thunder on JINX. JINX NOT MINX DAMNIT Caleb stood there, frozen in shock at a magical woman materializing out of Zephyr's pocket. At least, he would've if it seemed unusual after the stuff he'd seen, which it didn't so he actually just stood there silently as he waited for Virgo to do something. Once Dale finally responded using some telepathy bullshit that magically told Gexln the woman he was searching for was Daphne and she was at the Alokozay inn, he turned to look at the others. "I would say this qualifies for an official mission. Whoever wants to come, follow me" the dragonslayer said as he took off for the aforementioned inn.
Well it was fairly obvious that their opponents weren't the real Sara and Amanda. Skadi hadn't known either of them particularly well, but turning to dark magic and trying to outright kill their allies wasn't something they would do, she was sure of it. Attacking their allies to protect someone, maybe, but flat out betrayal wasn't their thing. "You might as well drop the act. We know you're not Sara and Amanda. Tell me, what did you do with them?" Skadi asked as she became engulfed in flames and used Fire Surge. Skadi used Fire Surge on Jinx! (I actually remembered it's proper name this time!)
Purchasing and equipping 6 Crystal Crowns (trinity force OP), 2 Omega Arts, and a golem chain for Gexln, spending all 8000 money immediately. In total, I get +42 HP, +24 MP, +6 AS, +27 Strength, +19 Speed, +19 Defence, and +12 Magic from the accessories equipped On top of the points that I spent earlier ( For Gexln's 15 points, I'm going to spend 7 on Natsu, 7 on Gray, and 1 on Erza Speed +27.5 Speed, +14 Strength, +7 Defence and +7 Magic.) that brings the total to.... +42HP, +24MP, +7 AS, +41 Strength, + 46.5 speed, + 26 Defence, +19 Magic. You're welcome Al.
Without a word, Skadi began moving the rocks. Though there was water, it was the only chance they had. Either they did nothing and certainly suffocated, or moved the rocks and had a chance at swimming to the surface. As Kageyama escaped, Caleb hurled his sword after the man, intending to pin him to the ground with it if he was able. Turns out he wasn't able to do so, due to a wind wall of bullshittery forming and knocking back the sword. He walked over and picked up the blade, before yelling out to Cassandra. "So what do we do now? How do we get through?" Caleb shouted. Just as the Wanderer of the Dark was about to agree to watch Boreal for Trevor, but just as he did so Dale returned and told him something, and Gexln's eyes widened at the mention of a dragon. The dragon that had raised him had died many years ago, but he'd heard tales of the dragons going missing around that same time, but he'd never heard anything else about it. Perhaps this was an opportunity to learn more! "Where? Tell me where this dragon is Dale!" he demanded.
Glen turned around to look at the others there, and the look of amusement on his face was fairly easy to see. "Quick question, but is this the first time we've all been in agreement with Karina? Because I don't know about you guys, but if she didn't do that then I was going to" he stated, before shrugging his shoulders and following after Karina.
Gaius didn't see what the problem everyone had with his story was. He'd thought it was hilarious and really outlined everyone's character perfectly. Apparently most others hadn't seen it that way though, Dale especially. What made it worse was that Dale had left. Gaius didn't blame him; he'd seen the way Boreal and even his own guild members had treated him. The fire mage wasn't amazingly fond of Dale, but he had a solid amount of respect for him and even if he didn't...to see their own guild members turn on someone was infuriating. It almost made Gaius want to go over and say something. Almost. Gexln, like Dale, wasn't amused by the story. He looked down at his feet and saw Tabby looking at him as though he had a question, and the Wanderer of the Dark could tell what that question would be. "I didn't like the story. It made me sound like all I do is beat people up I have a problem with" he said, crossing his arms. He couldn't help but notice that Tabby was shuffling around awkwardly, looking more than a little nervous. "Yes?" "But....y-you kind of do" the small cat replied, his voice barely audible. "I do not!" he shouted back. He didn't even raise a fist against Tabby; he'd never do that to a fellow guild member unless they really deserved it. Only moments later, he heard the sound of Gaius talking. Immediately he knew that would cause trouble. "Why did you do that? Dale's our friend, not our enemy. Boreal tried to kill us, and now you're helping him?" Anger rising, Gexln walked over towards Boreal and Trevor, his face not showing much emotion. When he got nearby, he finally let the anger show. "The hell was that man? Dale's been with us for years and now you're going to try to get him out of here? He's one of us, not like this Boreal guy. You can't just mess with people like that, not if you want this guild to stay together!" Gexln growled. The dream had overexaggerated everything, but there was no doubt Gexln wanted to beat the crap out of Boreal. He wished that part had've happened. He let out a sigh. "If Dale comes back, you're going to have to apologize. Both of you. This isn't me asking. Trevor, you have an obligation to the guild, and Boreal if you don't do it I'm going to make what I did in the story seem like nothing in comparison to how badly beaten up you'll be. Gaius, drop it and get some rest, I'll handle things from here" he ordered. Gaius wanted to argue and protest, but at least Gexln was making sure there were some consequences. Even so, he didn't like what had just happened. Regardless, he went over to one of the seats and sat down. With their enemy defeated, Caleb turned to face Kageyama. The bigger guy had gone down easily enough, but there was no telling how strong Kageyama was. "You've seen how your teammates fared going against Sapphire Eclipse. Surrender now, Kageyama" he stated in a very serious tone.
Truth be told, when Sapphire had closed his dark corridor Glen had been a little annoyed with it. He had listened though, and her explanation didn't help things. He still really, really wanted to go through and fight. But she was right. If the others failed, he was the last hope. The moment Sapphire left, he considered making a dark corridor and going through anyway, but he decided against it. For now he would simply watch. Hunter had a very unamused look on his face when Ohm betrayed them. "First Zephyr, now Ohm. With so many people rebelling against the rebellion, how are we gonna win?" he asked, stroking his beard as though he were actually capable of thought. Less than a second later, he snapped his fingers as though he'd had an excellent idea. "Scripted loss, of course! Well Ohm, you might as well throw your sword on the ground and die quietly, cause you ain't winnin' this one" Hunter threatened. OOC: IF KROSS HASNT RESPONDED TO THIS IN SEVEN DAYS I MUST SKIP HIM AND THE ONLY WAY TO DO THAT IS TO DEFEAT HIM IN A SINGLE HIT!
Gaius would have responded to Rennette, but he was busy being aero heimlich'd. No matter how much he fought against it, the force was too much and once again it came out of him. Truth be told, he considered using barrier surge again, but if it was this important to people...was it truly evil? If only he was in his regular body, then he could just burn the thing to ash and be done with it. "Fine, if you wanna go and take that evil spell, go for it, I aint gonna stop ya, and you can't come whinin' to me when it goes wrong" he stated, crossing his arms. Caleb nodded as Cassandra passed on the responsibility of dealing with the dark guild members to them. There was no way he was going to let her down, not with so much on the line. This mission was crucially important, and if they couldn't stop the dark guild members from reviving lullaby, then nothing would survive. Not their guild, not their friends. Not Skadi. With newfound strength, Caleb dashed towards their new opponent, letting out a ferocious roar as the guardian lashed out with an attack. Caleb used Sliding Dash
