Transitory Ardent Assimilator (Thousand Wounding Gears Style)

vs

Aoshi (Storm Crow Style)

Match rules:

:Competitors started 53 yards apart in the cold northern tundra. A few hundred yards away is a small barbarian encampment of yurts. The sky is brooding with dark grey clouds and a slight breeze is swooping south from the Pole of Air, chilling and dangerous.

:Full Essence 3 character build (including all Artifacts) allowed.

:To the death(ish).

== Tick -1 ==
Transitory Ardent Assimilator and Aoshi Join Battle!

TAA gets 6 successes, Aoshi gets 5.

== Tick 0 ==
Transitory Ardent Assimilator activates his Optic Shroud and becomes invisible against the grass and clouds. He begins a slow circling movement clockwise and perpendicular to the Sidereal, and remaining wary.

(Speed 3 DV 0, Move 1 yard)
(Total Distance: 53 yards)
== Tick 1 ==
Aoshi activates Storm Crow Form in preparation for the oncoming onslaught.

(Speed 6 DV -1)
(Total Distance: 53 yards)
== Tick 2 ==
The invisible Alchemical activates an Array to flurry three golden gyrochakrams at Aoshi. He starts to glow as the giant bladed cogwheels spin towards their target in broad arcs, spitting up snow flurries into the Sidereal's face to confuse and distract her.

Aoshi tries to parry but is caught by surprise with the first attack which slices across her arm, but manages to just barely knock aside the remaining two.

(TAA Speed 4 DV -3)
(Aoshi 2HL)
(Total Distance: 53 yards)
== Tick 3 ==

== Tick 4 ==

== Tick 5 ==

== Tick 6 ==

== Tick 7 ==

== Tick 8 ==

== Tick 9 ==

== Tick 10 ==

== Tick 11 ==

== Tick 12 ==
Enjoying the chance to power up, the Monster activates Viridian Legend Exoskeleton and is encased in a brassy chitin. He continues his relentless trudge towards the Lunar.

(Speed 7 Dv -1, Move 5 yards)
(Total Distance: 64 yards)
== Tick 13 ==

== Tick 14 ==
Hestia, in a display of bravado, turns and moons the Infernal as she activates Light-Treading Technique. This may have been more effective if she had been easier to spot. :)

(Speed 5 DV -1)
(Total Distance: 54 yards)
== Tick 15 ==

== Tick 16 ==

== Tick 17 ==

== Tick 18 ==

== Tick 19 ==
The Infernal and the Lunar engage in a small amount of smack talk as the Horror Under Lock and Key hides behind an enormous tree. Hestia is unable to spot him so she charges forwards swinging her improvised club from side to side smashing aside everything in her path and calling "Come out, come out, wherever you are!"

(Hestia Speed 3 DV -2, Dash 11 yards)
(HULK Speed 3 DV -0, Move 5 yards)
(Total Distance: 28 yards)
== Tick 20 ==

(Total Distance: 17 yards)
== Tick 21 ==

(Total Distance: 6 yards)
== Tick 22 ==
As Hestia nears him, the Infernal activates '''The Horror Under Lock and Key SMASH!''' combo.

But oh no! Hestia activates her '''Peek-a-Boo!''' Combo and counterattacks!

There is a moment of green, purple and silver anima flaring carnage and Creation seems to be motionless awaiting the outcome...

Hestia chuckles and continues to Dash away in a glowing streak of prismatic light.
The Horror Under Lock and Key roars and follows inexorably.

(HULK Speed 5, DV -1, 12HL)
(Hestia Speed 3, DV -2, Dash 13 yards, 21HL)
(Total Distance: 0 yards)
== Tick 23 ==

(Total Distance: 8 yards)
== Tick 24 ==

(Total Distance: 14 yards)
== Tick 25 ==
The grievously wounded, yet still chuckling Tigress, heals a single wound and continues sprinting away from the Monster.

(Speed 3, DV -2, Dash 13 yards)
(Total Distance: 20 yards)
== Tick 26 ==

(Total Distance: 33 yards)
== Tick 27 ==
With a mighty outraged bellow, the Infernal Monster activates his '''SMASH!''' Combo again...

The Lunar becomes a smear of fur and bloody paste upon the jungle floor, and most of the surrounding flora.

(Hestia, dead, dead, 38HL!!!)
== Tick 28 ==
The Horror Under Lock and Key is declared the Winner!

== Postscript ==
Everything fades to black after a bright green flash. The sound of a crowd roaring with cheers and applause is heard, and as it, too, fades away it discernibly changes to jeers and roars overlaid with deep, booming laughter.

A tall silk robed man reaches through a cage to give a grain of rice to a mop-headed man with blazing green eyes.

"Heh, heh, well done m'boy! Heh! Tonight, you eat! Heh. Victory! Heh!"

Well, it was fun to have HULK power up completely. Hestia gave a good accounting of herself, that combo is so good... shame it's borked. Why did Hestia not try throwing her Vajra? I dunno. I don't think her heart was in it, maybe? Trying something new and different? Anyway, it was all over when she ran out of motes for her combo and HULK had enough for one more. :) [[nikink]]

 TAA did not have much chance here. Wind-Hand Gemstone made Aoshi nearly impossible to hit from range, especially with the parry boost from Storm Crow Form. Closing the distance to fight hand-to-hand was risky but the only viable option. Alas, hand-to-hand with a gyrochakram and Thousand Wounding Gears Style is decidedly un-optimal. Aoshi, on the other hand, breezed it in. If she had combo'd on Tick 1 the fight may have ended right there. TAA suffers from a lack of surprise negating charms. Perhaps Storm Crow Style should not have an Unexpected attack charm... :) [[nikink]]

-Enjoying the chance to power up, the Monster activates Viridian Legend Exoskeleton and is encased in a brassy chitin. He continues his relentless trudge towards the Lunar.
+Seeing her chance, the Chosen of Endings activates '''Heaven-Splitting Moment''' and throws the vajra with an ear-splitting sonic boom. Essence crystallises around the shaft as it strikes like a thunderbolt.
-(Speed 7 Dv -1, Move 5 yards)
+The javelin strikes unexpectedly, and punches through the Alchemical's armour as though it wasn't there driving deep through the Perfected Lotus Matrix and out of his back.
-== Tick 14 ==
+The Moonsilver Champion simultaneously leaps forward to strike at Aoshi with three deadly slices from the gyrochakram in his hand, snow, sparks and oil fly everywhere... He strikes! The first cut glances across Aoshi's armour but does no damage, the remaining attacks are deftly knocked aside.
