[[PLAYER TURN BEGIN]]
Tara
HP: 50/50
MP: 65/65
AP: 3/3
<<What's the Plan?>>
>>25358398
How long does Conceal last?
Is it just one enemy turn or is it a hide until you attack thing?
>>25358443
Duration lasts until you choose to reveal yourself or perform an attack.
screech, screech, screech.
Gotta tune up the vocal cords before your big song.
also +dodge chance is always good.
>>25358459
Then I would go for a conceal, save five for a massive status inflict turn next, with the intent to use resonate.
>>25358398
Check with Gideon
Screech
Screech
Screech
>>25358398
Sing x2AP https://youtu.be/3YxaaGgTQYM to raise Steelie
Conceal
>>25358477
I don't think conceal is guaranteed 100% dodge chance, it just says it raises it.
>>25358566
I never intended it to be 100% dodge chance, I just know how effective super turns are.
>>25358581
then tell us what your plan is for the 5 move turn if we might just take damage for free. My biggest concern about a superturn is her low mana pool, so having a persistent bonus to defence seems better than a 1 turn one.
>>25358609
Singing and screeching.
>>25358621
Forgot to add, I'm more focused on the 'increased status application' part of Conceal.
>>25358621
if we're combining singing and screeching we'd probably want a song that synergies with Screeches specific status effects, which sadly means moonlight blade might not be very useful.
But it could work.
>>25358621
>>25358627
>>25358659
conceal+resonate+sing+screech+screech+screech is still 55 of 65 mana though. we'd be locked into needing to infusex3 the next turn, but if we pick a good song it might be worth just for the huge stat dump.
okay.
I'm >>25358468 and i'm changing my vote to just conceal.
>>25358493
>Check with Gideon
>You produce the book from your bandanna
>The second its maw leaves the confines of the Flat Space, you are already regretting the decision.
>Like a screaming fanboy, the thing squeals in delight
>"OOOH! Milady! How good it is to see your beautiful face once again!"
"Uhg. Great to see you Gid. Can I get you to take your eyes off my face and give me some info?"
>"Tis an impossibility milady, for your face is far to ravishing to-"
>You waste no time is flipping the book over towards the doughman
>It sighs audibly and dramatically.
>"Fine, fine! Let's see here..."
>The book hums and hahs ass the monster lurches ever closer.
>Dodging a flek of dougy spittle, Gideon finally speaks up once aagain
>"If I'm right, that is a golem! A trifle for the fair lady."
"Glad to hear it, what is its weakness?"
>"It can be defeated by disturbing the magical circuits flowing through its body."
"Noted!"
>You slip the book back into your bandana, but not before it can cry out
>"I love y-"
>Uhg.
>Clingy little thing.
>What's the plan?
>>25358698
>>>"It can be defeated by disturbing the magical circuits flowing through its body."
so the badges, got it.
>>25358698
Must be the badges.
>>25358698
Why didn't he say anything about the possibly absorbed ponies?
>>25358714
maybe there aren't any? We're surrounded by what looks like empty armour racks.
>>25358698
Did you mind rape that book to be like that, or was it always a fedora tipper?
>>25358745
>You think about where you went wrong with that stupid book
>After Willow gave it some sort of magical STD, that thing was annoying you nonstop
>You remember trying to get it to shut up, but...
>It just didn't work.
>That thing was destined to spill spaghetti.
>>25358496
>Steel Charge has been incapacitated!
>He will need to be revived to participate.
>Turns to self-revival: 3
>You Sing!
"Wake me up inside!~"
>Steelie stirs from his resting place on the cold floor.
>"C-can't wake up."
>A pained groan punctuates his response.
>Despite all this, he struggles to open his eyes, only to be shocked to see your buttbefore him.
>"Tara... Did you..?
>MP: 55/65
>You continue to Sing!
"Wake me up inside!"
>"...Save me...?"
"Call my name and save me from the darkness I've become!~"
>MP: 45/65
>Steel cranes his head up from his supine position and cocks his head
>"Is that really a thing or are you just messing with me?"
>You used Conceal!
>Your form is shrouded from conventional sight.
>Status effectiveness increased!
>Combo effectiveness increased!
>Dodge chance increased!
>MP: 35/65
"Eh, about half n' half, really~"
[[PLAYER TURN END]]
>>25358698
I want to get Steelie up as soon as possible.
Use >Taunt on Steelie. Maybe some lewd words or rubbing up on him will wake him up. Maybe sing a rousing song to him, but I could use some anon's help choosing a good song.
Otherwise, Conceal twice.

>It seems the Enemy needs more time to complete its task!
[[ENEMY TURN END]]
>>25359171
triple infuse targetting the badge on the arm reaching for steel.
we'll be topped up on full mana for next turn and we'll have steel to halfguard while we prep for a huge combo.
>>25359178
We need to defend Steelie
>>25359178
>>25359195
This sounds good.
Steel should be able to move this turn unless the arm prevents him, so he should be able to do something himself too to try and get out.
>>25359195
This, but also throw in the Druidic Focus to slow it down if the infusion doesn't stop it.
[[PLAYER TURN BEGINS]]

>>25359314
wait, so it didn't move?
>>25359357
It's not a literal view of the fight.
>>25359357
i still want to try infusing a badge anyway.
>>25359314
Does the goop over Steel still have a badge to target? Anyway,
>>25359195
>>25359300
>>25359314
Use druidic focus to pull Steel to his hooves. Wrapping him up might even block the attack at the very least.

>>25359530
So about 120 hp?
>>25359530
Get him pile bunk the badge on the other arm.
>>25359546That's what you think
>>25359546
probably two forms of health, we can win with pure damage to hp or by targetting badges.
Did the enemy skip its turn or did destroying the badge stun it?
>>25359530
Pile bunker on another badge.
>>25359557
I'm letting you guys act with steel because you helped him up
>>25359557
We made steel active this round.
Quick steelie, penetrate deep into its warm, wet interior and blow your load.
>>25359581
You talking about the dough or the bat?
>>25359604
Dough?
Oh right the monsters still here.

"Steelie, where's the radio?"

"Didn't think you enjoyed a bit of the pinch and squeal, Steelie~"
>"Th-That's not what I got them for!"
>>25359658
>Radio is gone
God dammit, I wanted to summon a jukebox. I had a song and everything. I can't believe you did this to me Steelie.
>>25359681
Can sing alter reality?
Maybe Tara can sing Jukebox Hero and summon it herself.
>>25359694
The power of song is strong in Equestria.
Believe in the power to change the world through music.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Tq-UsaRchI
Sing like Geddy and summon the Ashen Radio then.
>No singx3 'Night witches' while Steel uses the radio.
Feels bad man.
>>25359760
>>25359760
(as a player who loves watching this CYOA, isn't so good at the fighting aspect but wants to cheer on the fight regardless)
Beat the chips outta that lump of dough!
>>25359737
I bet Tara could have a real party with two Steelies.
>>25359636
>>25359581
"Steelie! Penetrate that monster with your horn!"

"Then finally, climax deep within its folds, stretching its walls to the limit with your explosive load!"
>"T-Tara, please!"
>tee hee.
>He slams into the other arm of the creature, right on top the exposed badge.
>His efforts are punctuated with an explosive blast, sending chuinks of cookie dough everywhere
>Badge 2 of 5 destroyed!

>>25359793
Yeah she's got a pretty good view at that moment!
>>25359807
>chuinks
Better delete again. :^)
>>25359812
His tail is up and everything.
>>25359866
His armor is still blocking everything. We have to get him out of that somehow
?Although tara is a pure cancer build thats borderlined overpowered, she occasionally stunlocks herself by trying to bewitching gaze Steels codpiece.

>>25360021
resonate and halfguard
>>25360021
Can we aim screech?
I think we should conceal at the end of our turn. A chunk of our build is almost certainly built around it, and we're really taking a beating.
>>25360069
if you resonate and conceal, do you get a super conceal?
>>25360090
Only one way to find out.
>>25360059
>>25360090
The problem with resonate is that we only give damage based on how many status effects the enemy has, which is one. Also we could do a triple screech for dodge chance and possible combo.
>>25360021
It's got eyes now.
I want to stare it down.
resonate+conceal+save an ap.
steel halfguards to be safe.
next turn we resonate+screech,screech,screech and explode every eardrum in canterlot.
65 mana exactly.
>>25360107
i dont really care about the damage, i care about its ability to modify skills.
>>25360021
Half guard's a definite.

>>25360399
I don't think grappling is a good idea, so have Steel hold back.
Maybe he can just Grapple the Tentacle?
Tara should heal.

Lock eyes with it to increase Witch's Eyes.
>>25360399

>our only way to heal is conventional attacks
Uh oh, hope it doesn't do to much damage.Although we could always bite Steelie instead :^)
>>25360399
There's no need to even attack right now.
Just keep staring at it and spamming dodge skills.
>>25360466
this. we have 4 ap too.
we can triple screech and add something extra for spice.
I don't even want to kill it, i want it to lose all hope and joy in its life. it must despair at its crippling ailments knowing there is nothing it can do. We must layer so many status effects that this thing becomes the first artificial lifeform to commit suicide.

HP: 20/50

>What's the plan?
>>25360502
resonate+screechx3.
infinite dodge chance.
>>25360526
We still need to heal though...
>>25360502
Stack passive >>25360461
and >>25360526
>>25360536
No need to heal if you never get hit.
The real concern is eventually having to restore mp.
>>25360556
we're supposed to get MP back for dodging.
I think hijacker forgot though.
>Rebound - Recover MP for dodging and Poison the target.
>>25359530
>>25360569
Rebound only applies for the same turn its activated.
>>25360584
That's kind of weird, unless you're running on empty you'll be near full just from the three infuses.
so the only reliable benefit is guaranteed poison application?
>>25360593
It's for mana heavy attack strings and getting out of Manastarve.
Each dodge adds 10 mp to your pool, and can help if you're constantly casting for damage instead of status or dodge.
>>25360600
you say each dodge, but it's only one turn.
also if you're casting for damage you wont have the dodge stats to actually get the passive to tick.
>>25360608
Looking back, I got my turns messed up.
I thought we were two turns away from Rebound.
Basically, it works like this
[Player Turn - P, Enemy Turn - E]
P>Rebound Activates
E>
P>Rebound still active
E>
P>Rebound deactivates.
Sorry about that.
==
>MP: 45/65
>>25360630
so theres a casting turn where it turns on, an 'active' turn and then it dies when you do upkeep at the start of the next turn?

Tara seems like a character you have to focus down early or else.
anyway, we have a problem. if we go for HP restore, we'll set off a spike trap since its a conventional attack.
Pausing for tonight

My idea for tommorow is to send steel in with siege perilous to set off the traps then lifesteal behind him.

Poor Steel. Taking hits for m'lady.

So do we have to start with a stare + S/R/T and as long as we have S/R/T somewhere in the following turns we can keep increasing it?

Gotta say hijacker, in terms of making your combo system and fighting more interesting this is a huge step up, seems like Tara has dozens of things she can do and this is without items.
>>25360804
wait till you guys get willow back
she's been workin out
>>25360805
meh.
I'm pretty much never going to vote for a character we've already played.
>>25360808
I'm on the fence about it really.
>>25360808
Why?
If he has changed her up I dont see how that its any different from trying someone else.
>>25361006
because fighting is a small fraction of the cyoa and she's still the same character for the rest of it.
>>25361015
I don't how that's a bad thing. I'd rather go back to a character we have played and see some advancement than have to reset every Chapter.
I actually really like the constant shifting. Like, eventually we could pop back to Willow or Steel, but on the whole, playing as a ton of new characters really expands the world and gives us a way more fresh style of storytelling than most other CYOA
>>25361760
To many player characters will just make them feel expendable.
Id rather have a small roster that gets rotated around.
>page 11
I-I'm sorry?
>>25363949
Stickies add a page.
>>25361855
Yeah That's my hope. I just want to play as Sweet Ass again m
>>25364152
>I just want to play as Sweet Ass again
Isn't that basically everyone?
>>25364440
Not really. I kind of hate her and want to see her rot in prison.
>>25364453
I mean basically everyone seems to have a sweet ass.
>>25364453

>>25381493
When Steel used it thorn armor only lasted for a turn, but I'm not sure if that was because it timed out or it was hit. A non-physical attack should be safe and it was reduced to one set of spikes instead of three.
>>25381493
Stare into its eyes and sing You Can't See Me all soft and hypnotizing like.
Conceal.
>>25381620
http://pastebin.com/c01PjEAe
>>25381666
1AP, 10MP to sing You Can't See Me as a lullaby.
Maybe put it to sleep, render us "invisible" as a side effect hopefully.
In any case, Stare at it during.
Next turn, my plan is to do that 35mp, 4ap super combo we did earlier of Screechx3 + Resonate.
>>25381743
We need another combo before we can do that one.
>>25381787
Those are two separate combos in itself though.
Are you saying Echolocation and Mind Wrack are the same combo?
>>25381818
Hijacker should be the one to answer that.
>>25381818
you need to space it out
combos used in one turn can't be used again in the next
>>25382022
Then we'll do something else next turn. I still want to sing and stare at it.
ok back.

What this is going to leave us at 0 stacks
If I'm looking at this right and assuming Conceal adds 1 dodge stack, we will lose all of them at the start of our next turn.
Should we risk it?
>>25382935
Death or glory baby.
>>25382970
That does seem like her style.
>>25382935
Hopefully Singing a lullaby will put it to sleep, plus there's our old song stacked on top of three conceals to keep us up maybe.
Lastly, Hijacker never had Steel use Siege Perilous, so maybe that can hold it down too.

>>25384005
There's a reason I didn't target the mouth.
in case anyone is worried, Steleie being in the mouth is a visual gag more than anything.
>>25384005
I would have assumed putting it to sleep would have ended the encounter, but nooo.
Gotta make the bad choices noone made to make things interesting.

This is my fetish.
>>25384082
Yeah but this is so fucking cool.
>>25384082
>Still being surprised when it happens
>>25384082
the sleep wasnt chosen because without posting a specific song, the sing command defaults to a less effective version of itself.
you also posted 4 different songs, only one of which was an actual lullabye.
be more decisive with Sing, and it will reward you.
>>25384107
Wait, hold up, last time it was totally ineffective, and he did pick a specific song.
But apparently Tara doesn't know Rock-a-bye baby.

Use Hermit Purple on Steelie's butt to free him.
>>25384229Shit.
>>25384142
Song effectiveness is dictated by the amount of AP spent singing as well as specificity
more AP = more effective
>>25384142
>But apparently Tara doesn't know Rock-a-bye baby.
That's a mistake on my end, actually
either way though, your song didn't quite get it to close its eyes just yet because you only spent 1 AP

I vote

Druidic Focus to pull Steel free.

Try to open the gate and wait until we got max AP.
>>25384918
Pat cookie on the back until he burps up Steel.
>>25385027
*Pausing here
>>25384918
Molest Steel before pulling him out.And then get him out of the golem's mouth.
From here, we can get Keys in, deal with the guard patches, whatever we need to do. Combat is basically over.
>>25385039
I vote we toy around with Steel a bit before we get him around, ye.
>>25385053
We gotta investigate how he absorbed that attack with his butt earlier.
>>25385053
We should put on a show for Keys, maybe invite her in. It'll be our secret.
>>25385074
His flank may be sore and in need of attention.

"I'm taking advantage of a golden opportunity!"

She can come inif she promises to touch it too.
>>25386168
Play "How naked can we get him before we wakes up"
Bonus points for touching him
>>25386168
Indeed, the contract is that she must also touch.
>>25386168
Put the codpiece in the bandanna.
Refuse to give it back.

>You stow the codpiece for later access
>Or, ideally, never to be access again.
>She smiles a brief moment, thinking you're just playing a joke on her
>"Oh whew, I thought you were going to-"
"The game is "See how naked Steelie can get without him waking up!~""
>Her jaw drops and her cheeks flush
>...Somehow.
>Keys jams up against the bars
>"You can't do that! He didn't say you could!"
"Oh? He didn't say you couldn't either~" you sing as you undo the strap on his flank armor.
>"Tara! Please! Don't do it! Just let me in and stop hogging hi-"
>She stops dead in her tracks and clamps her mouth shut
>You giggle at this new development
"Oh my... The underling wanting to touch her master's booty? How..."
>You draw out your next word, letting Keys taste the sultry undertones"...Lewd."
>She whines and paws at you from the bars
>"O-Okay! Fine! But I-I'm not gonna do anything else, and neither should you!"
>What's the plan?
>>25386168
let her in if she helps.
we can say we had to take the armour off to make sure he wasnt choking on dough.
>>25386336
We'll give her the codpiece if she plays.
>>25386336
Steelie is just too heavy to drag out with aaaaaaall that armor on.
We'll have to be extra careful, don't want steel getting hit in the danglies because he assumed it was still there.
>>25386336
Yep, no way we could possibly get him out of there with all that heavy armor on.
>>25386336
Tell her she's going to lose the game if she's not going to touch him places.
You're certainly not going to show any mercy.
>>25386395
Oh I'm sure we'll make him well aware his danglies are unprotected.
>>25386425
the game is if you touch something, the other pony cant touch it.
Lets see how far she'll go.
>>25386436
Can't touch it? Fuck that.
Turn it into a game ofHORSE
You HAVE to touch what the other pony touches.
>>25386447
Nah man, you make keys stroke that cock to 'protect' him from Tara. Giving keys an excuse to give in to her lust is the game. She'll say we made her do it but deep down she'll know she wanted it.
>You unlock the gate from the inside and Keys tumbles into the courtyard.
>She brushes off her bones, and coughs.
>You begin walking towards steelie and-
"Keys? Are you coming?"
>She mumbles protests, but she still walks forward
>You finally get to your prize
>Before you is a moderately exposed Steel butt>...With a bonus package for extra funhttp://i.imgur.com/lDCzU07.jpg
>You gesture towards it
"So Keys, as part of our agreement, you're going to play a game with me~"
>She whines slightly and continues to be embarassed

>>25386425
"The rules are simple."
>You grin.
"Touch the butt."
>"Th-That's it, right?"
>Heh.
"Not even close. You see, touching the butt is only the first round."
>You explain the game is a game of touchy horse, in a sense
>You touch something first
>And she has to touch the same thing, the same way, or touch somehing... beter.
>"W-wait what? But I..!"
"No buts, only butts."
>You give a light smack to Steel's explosed booty, which quivers reactively.
>Now for the killer
"And if you don't touch what I touch..."
>You lick your lips
"I'll make sure to compensate.~"
>She tries to hide her excitement, but clearly she can't do it too well.

"Batter up, missy."
>Keys approachs his flank and stands awkwardly.

>...But he stays asleep.
>She holds the breath, as if to analyzing it like a glass of wine
>Then she releases it, her expression one of true bliss.
>"T-Too easy." she responds with a faltering confidence
>Or it could be the realization her dreams might come true
>Well, some of them
>She IS still a skeleton, after all.
>She tugs at her collar anxiously
>"C-Can we stop now?"
