| A man can be seen, walking towards Schwa across an endless grassland. His skin is dark in tone, contrasting with the soft white of his simple robes, which are tied with a strip of sky blue cloth. The morning sun reflects brightly off of his bald head. He's in no hurry at all. His mind is open, deliberately allowing attempts to read his mind, which is, for the most part, empty. It contains a single goal: To reach Schwa. Why this is so is mysterious beyond the reasoning of gods.
But of course Sensae called this white-robed man a warrior, and told of a battle. |

| Soon after Schwa lies down, there is a swift pulse of energy from the 'ordinary' man. It's very focused- There's a line about a foot wide of tall grass completely disintegrated by the force of the impact. Blue fire sizzles in the air where there was once plant matter, rising off into the heavens.
The man is standing a few yards away from Schwa, on the other side of the shining trail. He bows deeply to the Psi Warrior, then raises his arms and assumes a fighting stance. He continues his silence, of both his voice and his mind. The air around them is filled with an unknowable tension, as though the air is having difficulty holding itself together. |

| The man does nothing immediately, but his open hands become enshrouded in energy. His left shines with the intensity of the Sun, with powerful white magic, and his right becomes an abyss for light, darknening the air around it with its destructive power. A single lance of light shoots into the darkness, and a curve of darkness into the light. Soon there is a region between his hands that is constantly fought over by the two forces.
The man brings his hands together. A stream of white and black lightning fires itself high into the air, and the sky suddenly becomes cloudly, the clouds themselves sparking with the primordial forces of good and evil. However, where the man's hands met, there now existed a blue lustrous greatsword, which the man proceeded to swing at Schwa. There was no speed in this motion, but a sort of terrible momentum, and it seems obvious that there is more than just metal in the weight of the weapon. There also exists a chance that Schwa is watching the lightshow above, and won't be prepared for the slice. Incidentally, the old man seems to have grown muscles in these short seconds. |

| As Schwa rolls away, the sword vaporizes into the same blue flames that rose from the grass. The man straightens up again, his face defiantly exp A single, tiny bolt of purple lightning shoots out of one of his fingers, almost certain to hit Schwa. Damage will be almost negligible. Odd that he works up such power and almost nothing comes of it... |

| "Finally, he strikes."
You know the whole thing with the clouds and the tense air? Yeah, that's gone now. As the Alpha Psibeam flies through the air, the clouds vanish, the long grass is back in place, and the man is still walking, though pretty soon he'll reach Schwa. The Psibeam hits a tree, where the man once stood. He speaks again, and his voice is calm and deep. He doesn't sound nearly as old as he looks. "I apologise for the mind games, but then, I am here to battle you. No, no, it was no illusion. The nature of my magic is to trick the universe itself into believing that it works differently than it does. It wouldn't be fair to jump into a battle with you without warning you first what I am capable of. It wouldn't make you stronger at all if I were to drive you mad, now would it?" He straightens up, and cracks his neck a few times. "Now... My name is Krishen. Shall we begin?" |

| "Haha, yes. I often have that feeling. To not understand why you feel in awe of something often means that you are in awe of your own lack of understanding.
As you wish, I will make the first strike." Krishen jumps forward at Schwa. The first thing to look for is always the first response... A simple rearrangement of particles, some quick activation energy, and... He brings back a hand, and it wreathes itself in rough diamond as Krishen attempts to deliver a cutting punch to the jaw of his stu- no, adversary. Starting with the small stuff, obviously. Schwa has already seen the power of a raw manifestation of Krishen's will, so there's no need to impress the Psi Warrior with flashing lights. |

Krishen grins as his gemstone fist goes flying over his opponent. There had to be at least one easy dodge, it's tradition. From now on, though... Look next for the fear, for in the fear of each warrior lies his heart and his strength... A favor asked of the spirits of the land, a form given to the formless mud... As Schwa flies towards him, Krishen's hand returns to flesh. He catches Schwa's right shoulder with his right hand and the left leg with the left hand, then throws him hard over his shoulder. The Psi Warrior will be, in theory at least, treated to a wonderful view of a brick wall which has just now risen out of the earth before striking that wall with quite considerable force. Some lessons are best taught by example. These are not those lessons. |

| I'm considering putting my face on the scanner, since I meant to get a digital camera but nothing came of that.
Any advice or opinions? Is it a stupid thing to do? Will it blind me? |

| Krishen smiles at the reaction he provoked. Schwa continues to perform as expected...
...which would be a lot nicer to know if that wasn't exactly what Krishen was trying to fix here. People like him hardly ever get spoken to by people like Sensae, and Krishen knows this faith in him is not misplaced. Still, the boy becomes irritated so easily... Ah well. Might as well do it by the book... his own method wasn't working particularly well anyway... Krishen kneels, and begins charging up what looks suspiciously like blue ether. A simple task to be done by the soul, control expended to favor chaos... It seems as though Krishen is barely aware of Schwa's complicated attack. The Alpha Psibeam strikes him as intended, but he doesn't even flinch. He must have sustained at least some damage, right? (edited by Koneko on 04-04-06 09:06 PM) |

| I would make absolutely sure I was in the city Ailure mentioned.
No, I would probably go with superpowers, and make the day last forever, the sun never set. And miraculously make this have no ill effect on anything while ignoring physics. That's what superpowers are for. I would use my eternity to master all the skills I've wanted to master but never had enough time, such as piano and guitar. Then I would make my own addictive videogames. And probably create real catgirls. |

| Please, would you be so kind as to tell me what the phrases "yo" and "'sup" have to do with gangbanging?
I'm dying to know this. |

Krishen responds with a little telepathy of his own... "Mind games? I apologised for that at the start, didn't I? ...Regardless. I'm doing it by the book now. None of my tricks, I promise." Something about the way he says 'promise' carries the psychic equivalent of a sarcastic grin. Krishen redoubles his efforts to charge energy. The blue ether flares up into a deep violet, taking on the appearance of a very hot flame completely surrounding him. Simultaneously, his robes changed color from white to red, and his light blue belt turns a shining gold. Once more he holds out his arms to embrace the sky, but it looks less dramatic than it did when there was lightning in the clouds. "You're afraid to attack me, aren't you. Give it a shot, friend." |

| Ah, I see. Thank you.
I had only ever observed the word being used in reference to sex, you see. So I assumed Forte had made some kind of mistake. Apologies all around. |

| Krishen gives a tiny smile. His skill with semantics has not failed him yet. He'll be true to his word... He won't use any of HIS tricks. He eyes the incoming attack with some degree of respect, and perhaps a tiny bit of apprehension. Nevertheless, he sounds just the smallest bit condescending when he 'speaks' to Schwa...
"Schwa, Schwa, Schwa... Don't you see?" The charged ether splits instintaneously into two bright red flames, each as tall as Krishen, one on his left and one on his right. They seem to be frozen in time and do not flicker as flame ought to. His next words have a monotonous volume to them... "IT'S DANGEROUS TO GO ALONE! TAKE THIS." Several hundred blue, shimmering swords appear in the air right in front of Krishen. As one they launch themselves towards Schwa. Each one individually is fairly weak, as could be expected from such a massive number of attacks... But then, Krishen has been charging for two turns. There's obviously a gimmick. But Krishen does nothing about the Thunder Slash, and is hit with its full force. However, while most opponents might be shot off in one direction, he is flung in seven. That is, six copies of him appear from inside of him as he is sent flying by the attack. Each Krishen catches the ground in the same way, and appears only slightly scratched. They send telepathy in stereo: "See, Schwa? None of my tricks. Only other people's." Krishen laughs, all seven of him, as he waits for the Psi Warrior's next move. |

| The swords that do not make contact with Schwa or his shield curve in their flight and head upwards. Soon the blades are lost to sight.
Krishen, however... Hahaha. You'd at least think he would have learned his lesson... Ah well. Can't all be the wisest. The seven Krishens simply stand laughing while they are hit with the thunderbolts. Each one reveals six more copies as they are knocked a bit farther away. Forty-nine red-robed warrior-wizards now stand in a circle around Schwa. As one, they pull longbows out of nowhere. Each readies a single arrow, and points his weapon at Schwa. "You're probably wondering whose book we're doing it by, haha. Well, you have a decent idea now. Give us a show, Schwa. Take your - haha - Best shot." |

| Niiiice.
That's creepily similar to my own vision on the topic a few years ago. Thing is, I lost the need to think about what the circumstances surrounding me getting a girlfriend would be when I actually got a girlfriend. Go figure. The only thing I find twisted about it is that the girl is probably at least 20 years younger than you in appearance. |

| "{sigh}... Ah well. If you don't get it yet... We'll need some desperate measures."
For you see, though the additional Krishens may technically be illusions, to the universe and all its inhabitants, they are very, very real. He mentioned that his magic worked by changing the way the world works... in this case, he's stretched spacetime a bit to fit his own visions into the plane. However, his magic doesn't control these 'copies' like puppets. Instead, each time he calls forth a form from his will, Krishen gives up a bit of his soul to the new creation. Thus the army of Krishens works more as a group of connected friends than a brigade of synchronized robots. This means that because there is no one real Krishen, Schwa won't be able to find him with Soul Search. Each one of the Krishens lights up (incidentally, so does the brick wall from earlier and each of the longbows), because they're all the real Krishen. However, there are disadvantages to this as well. Each one of these partial souls is far more vulnerable to attack and less capable of controlling its body than the full soul. So while each one of them is real, the price paid is in strength, and each individual body can doubtless be dispatched with ease. Of course, then the souls could find another Krishen-form to join with, making that one stronger. There's definitely a way to win, though, even when it looks like there isn't. However. The Soul Search was not entirely a waste. A man wearing a hooded violet cloak covered in familiar symbols is revealed to be sitting on the air, high above the battle, his invisibility spell having been disrupted. He gives a short laugh before disappearing in a puff of green and blue smoke. And when this happens, the forty-nine warriors release their grip on forty-nine bows, letting forty-nine white arrows fly through the air at Schwa. As this happens, the charged energy from before is lost, and each Krishen's robes change back into white. "...Desperate measures that will have to wait." |
