Andromedan Orbiting Operations Center (and offworld adventures)

[Firuthi Dragovic]

We are outside of Sundari City. Heavy fortifications have been set up outside the domed cities walls. There seem to be hundreds of thousands of Shogun and Mandalorian warriors defending. They also have large numbers of artillery emplacements set up and armored hovertanks in defending positions. You could also hear the Shogun soldiers singing to bolster their morale:
We are the Imperial Army
And our enemies are enemies of the Emperor
The enemy general is a
Hero equal to none in glory and victory

And the men who follow are also stalwart
And warriors who do not fear death
Even though they are brave enough to frighten Lucifer,
Heaven will not pardon their war

Those who have crossed the Emperor
Have never prospered
Until our enemy is destroyed,
Forwards, forwards, one and all

Unsheathing the sword like a shattered gem,
We must go forwards, prepared for death

As it has been custom in this Imperial Land,
Samurai have protected like their very souls
The sword which has been made
Obsolete in the Restoration,

Now it has been brought back,
So let friend and foe
Die under the blade, and
For those with Shogun Spirit

Now is the time to die,
Do not bring shame through delay
Until our enemy is destroyed,
Forwards, forwards, one and all

Unsheathing the sword like a shattered gem,
We must go forwards, prepared for death

Suddenly you hear a cry from one of the Shogun commanders, and soon a massive wave of Shogun warriors supported by earthbenders and jetpacked Mandalorian airsupport are coming towards our position with a banzai charge.

"Set the Doomwheel to ram-smash! These fortifications can't handle its charge!"

Warlock-Engineer: "Our flamethrowers can melt-slag the walls!"

"I think this could use a different theme song. Preparing to resonate."

Firuthi took a deep breath. Tentacles emerged from his back, forming into four loops. Then the tentacles flattened, taking the shape of speakers.

A heavy rock tune blasted out of them. Firuthi sang at the top of his lungs, a second voice - Jormungandr's - backing him up.

"The hot wind blowing, jagged lines across the sand... the crumbling buildings, in our minds are all that stand..."

The warlock-engineers, hoverbike troops, and Afanc all engaged sound dampening on their battle gear. The sound was aimed at trying to overwhelm the senses of the Shogun warriors charging in.

Universe and Ahrakas would have already known to engage some form of sound-dampening. Trix? Trix could feel some force filtering out the worst of the heavy song from overloading her - as if Firuthi was deliberately blocking it out.

Trix fell to the ground "WHAT IS THAT" she screamed

 

[Baron Tredegar]

*jumps through the portal, screams ensue on the other side, after about twenty minutes Trix walks back through* Well y'all... *giggles* I think you'll want to take a look *She pulls the dark saber out* well... at the battle field i mean

Is that what I think it is? Did you just steal the Darksaber? I think I have an idea for this.

Some of the Shogun troops were felled by the music. However it appeared the rest were put in a even more fanatical frenzy and continued their charge!

Trix smirked "Its not my first rodeo... my second... but not my first" she flipped the Darksaber to her right hand and turned it on "gimme a target"

Can you take out those earthbenders that are supporting this banzai charge?

Trixie snaps and disappears. Screams ensue from the attacking force

It seems we have made a valuable ally Firuthi.

 

[Firuthi Dragovic]

Trix fell to the ground "WHAT IS THAT" she screamed

Trix could feel a voice in her head - and something in her ears that further reduced the power of the song on her.

"I am a god of echoes. Most of the domain pertains to sound. My allies are used to top-of-lungs sensory-overload songs - I guess I didn't dampen it enough for you. Here."

Some of the Shogun troops were felled by the music. However it appeared the rest were put in a even more fanatical frenzy and continued their charge!

The warlock engineers had begun singing along.

Warlock-Engineer: "Just like the buffalo, blindly following the herd... We try to justify, All the things that have occurred!"

Other Warlock-Engineer: "I don't know what I've been told - the wishes of the people can't be controlled! I don't know what I've been told - the wishes of the people can't be controlled!"

When the Shogun troops got close, the warlock-engineers turned on their flamethrowers and lightning guns and let loose.

These were no ordinary flames or electricity. The electricity was green lightning that chained between targets. The flame was also green - as it was a mixture of fuels that made it burn way hotter and without oxygen. The dust within the flamethrower fire would cling to fortifications and literally melt them. Try to imagine that on flesh for a second.

"That we have. I know how these flamethrowers work - the earthbenders might have screwed with them. Now that they're not... I know what to do."

Firuthi continued his song.

"Heat of the desert... dust settles on my face - without a compass, the soldier knows no disgrace!
Out of the ashes - the eagle rises still - freedom is calling, to all men who bend their will!"

Air began building behind the warlock-engineers.

"Here I am, dirty and faceless, waiting to heed your instruction!
On my own, invisible warrior... I am a wind of destruction!"

Hot wind carried the flamethrower fuel and burning dust towards the fortifications, artillery, and hovertanks.

"WAIT" Trix screamed, then teleported back by Firuthi with a pair of gun range headsets on... and her tail smoking "thats better" she said as she put her tail out

It seems we have stopped the charge, and are even smashing their defenses too!

 

[Firuthi Dragovic]

"WAIT" Trix screamed, then teleported back by Firuthi with a pair of gun range headsets on... and her tail smoking "thats better" she said as she put her tail out

"Huh. You're familiar with how to put out warpfire. Looks like I underestimated you big time."

Firuthi kept up the beat a little longer.

"Sorry I got carried away. I'm meaning to burn their heavy weapons."

It seems we have stopped the charge, and are even smashing their defenses too!

"We fight for justice in a forgotten place - fulfill our duty, then vanish without a trace!
Don't need a medal for all the men we kill - freedom is calling to all men who bend their will!"

The song did quiet to repeating the beat of it at half the volume he was previously using. However, the warlock-engineers kept attacking, with the hoverbike troops breaking off to take out individual emplacements that were causing trouble.

"Before long, that Doomwheel is going to start wreaking havoc. That'll occupy the remaining foot soldiers. We might want to find the enemy commander fast."

Trix pulled out a sniper "someone tell me what he looks like" she said with a wink

He will most likely be wearing a elaborate combination of Mandalorian and Shogun armor. He will probably be a powerful bender or possibly even a Jedi.

It looks like hes readying the men for another charge. Better get him quickly.

Trix looks at (IDK your characters name) "bruh" she said as she pulled the trigger, thus hitting the commander in the head between the eyes "what do you think I was gonna do? eat some cake and wait for them to charge?"

Names Ahrakas by the way. Ive seen some odd and unpredictable things recently so that was a possibility.

"well..." Trix said as pulling the trigger multiple times, while staring at Ahrakas, "I don't do that", all the shots hit high ranking soldiers multiple times in the head

 

[Baron Tredegar]

Looks like the surviving soldiers are retreating into the city. Lets rest for now and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

Psychological warfare. We destroyed their fleet and their outer defenses. They know we are coming but they dont know when. Lets give them some time to begin panicking.

"Ahrakas, I might have overdone it a bit."

Firuthi sat down.

"Trix, do not worry, this is a common celestial and reality dragon problem. We tend to have trouble holding back - we can crush individual fights no problem but we tend to overdo it and need rest right after. Were it not for that, I'd disagree with the High Imperator's suggestion of waiting."

Firuthi looked at Universe.

"Universe, you carry any of that elixir Solaris gave you earlier? I could use it."

An albino rat with markhor-style horns approached the group. The massive hamster-wheel like siege engine - the Doomwheel - that he was previously piloting was now parked outside the smoldering remains of the walls.

"My hoverbike troops took quite a few deaths-casualties and I lost a few warlock-engineers in the battle-skirmish. Far less than I was expecting though."

"Bring them around, Afanc. Even that one stitching his comrade's arm back on. We're waiting for reinforcements."

*I gave it to him*

*I marched forwards and yelled* “GIVE ME HASTUR!”
