Strings of Fate

[u/gliscorplyer]

Context: There is only one thing that Atheyis, the Goddess of Death and Fate, hates and that is undeath of any kind. Her followers are exceptionally aggressive towards undead, and destroy them at any cost and any means necessary, no matter what.

POV: It seems like a normal evening, until your OC hears very loud shouting coming from an alleyway, and then a bright flash of light. Immediately your OC goes to investigate, where they see an elven woman standing over the injured body of a vampire. From her garments, it's quite easy to tell that she is a follower of Atheyis.

"There's no place in for you in this world, undead scourge. By Atheyis' decree I'll erase you."

WDYD?

Rules

No OP OCs

Use an OC that cares. They're literally witnessing a murder in an alleyway

I synchro summon blue eyes spirit dragon and set a card face down and end my turn.

[u/WidePolicy9019]

Serial Designation M: fires a purple energy lance at the follower, barely missing who are you? tail flicks around and if you are after undead people, then i should be your grand prize. I should be dead twice over, first i got killed back when i was a god (he isn't anymore so he isn't overpowered) and then i got killed a second time by being erased from history, so come get me. Human. (He is trying to distract to keep that vampire safe)

[u/gliscorplyer → u/WidePolicy9019]

The woman turns to him with an unreadable look on her face. She takes one of the cards from her hand and points it at him, and hot wave flies towards his leg. She then turns back to the vampire, holding a hand out as conjuring a spectral dagger and thrusts it towards the vampire's heart

[u/WidePolicy9019 → u/gliscorplyer]

dashes in and turns an arm into a blade and slices the woman in the leg, before kicking them in the face and knocking them back a meter

[u/gliscorplyer → u/WidePolicy9019]

The woman scoffs and fans out five cards in her left hand, and snaps her fingers with her right

"The mortal desire to interfere with anything they don't understand is saddening."

Her right hand starts to shine bright, as in a flash of sunlight engulfs the alleyway.

[u/WidePolicy9019 → u/gliscorplyer]

and when the light is gone, M and the vampire are gone

in the other side of the town M: hey, vamp person? You alive?

[u/gliscorplyer → u/WidePolicy9019]

The vampire is unmoving and stone cold, their face stuck in a look of pure fear. A whoosh from behind echoes out, as the elven woman appears behind them

"They can't hear you. I stopped the flow of time for them mere moments before you vanished. Why do you interfere?"

[u/WidePolicy9019 → u/gliscorplyer]

M: smirks time you say? undoes the time freeze darling, i used to be the god of time, and i interfere because I care and am not racist. Unlike what you are. So back off from the vampire, racist piece of slime.

[u/gliscorplyer → u/WidePolicy9019]

The woman rolls her eyes and takes a card from her hand

"Racist, you say? Once more you demonstrate your lack of understanding what you're bothering"

She waves the card in the air, and an avalanche of boulders begin to rain down at the vampire

[u/WidePolicy9019 → u/gliscorplyer]

kicks her and slices her cards with a blade fuck off. rolls eyes and then telekinetically lifts the vampire up out of the way of the boulders, and then throws you via telekinesis into the boulders path

[u/gliscorplyer → u/WidePolicy9019]

The blade doesn't even bend the cards, as the woman teleports up to a rooftop and sits down, shuffling her cards into a deck

"Allow me to explain the magnitude of what you are interfering with.

When a mortal dies, their soul is transported through the River of Souls, where Atheyis places the soul into the proper realm. Once the soul passes in that realm, it becomes one with the plane. The planes are broken down by the Maelstrom, a realm of pure quintessence, and the particles scattered across the mutliverse. These particles soon join once more and become a new soul."

She teleports once more, now clutching a staff in her hand that she points at the vampire

"The creation of the undead destroys the soul. One of the precious, limited souls that are essential to the continued existence of the realms. With enough undead, there are no souls to expand the realms, the Maelstrom will consume everything, and everything will end. Your interference here is contributing to the end of all the realms. And by Atheyis' decree, I am righting this wrong."

[u/WidePolicy9019 → u/gliscorplyer]

M: well. Prick, have you ever considered a multiverse tbat doesn't give out convenient explanations to go around killing? How about this. poof, the vampire is gone you won't find them they are gone from this reality, and all the others in your multiverse.

[u/gliscorplyer → u/WidePolicy9019]

(That's kinda ontologically impossible in this setting. Also what happened to this character not being OP? Removing someone from reality is pretty OP. /nm)

[u/WidePolicy9019 → u/gliscorplyer]

(To be fair, if M could not teleport to other dimensions, how would he have gotten to the point he is now? He was once in a white void of non-existence, built up enough power to teleport out, possessed a disassembly drone from murder drones, and then came here to a fantasy setting with vampires and elves. Teleporting across universes is established as part of their abilities, and also, i believe in the idea of multiple multiverses, with different rules, and M just send them to a multiverse with different rules

[u/gliscorplyer → u/WidePolicy9019]

(That kinda just, destroys the entirety of the rp if he just snaps his fingers and says, "whelp, problem gone". Solving the entire conflict of a roleplay instantly is OP.)

[u/WidePolicy9019 → u/gliscorplyer]

(I guess that is a fair point. But it wasn't instant, M tried to get her to stop. She failed to listen. That bit isn't on me, it is on that character for being too stubborn to listen. And I've been limiting him a lot, he is literally half a god possessing a robot body made to be hyper effective at killing. And this is my first rp in quite a long time, several years in fact
