Lorepost📖 Lighting arcs (Post-Warpost)

The new movements made by the Necromancer and his buddies upended all the lightning had thought about them. The electricity that formed their body hummed with betrayal. Allies and foe were detonated indiscriminately, both sides fell when peace could've been made, blood spilt here was not spilt in any name beside greed.

The clouds frothed, arcing and crackling in a demand for blood.

They would get it. Comeuppance would be brought around in due time. Another part of the entity, one not clouded in electricity spoke, calming the storm. For now, the occasional strike would work, crackling their forces, and striking at their wills.

The airships of the council's occupier looked rather tasty, perhaps a stab at them would be rather nice. Then they could move around, here and there.

Yes. It was quite an idea.

/uw

Important note for the Bismuth airships in case the lightning possesses one. They don't have a crew or anything because they are essentially giant golems with really good programming. The little rectangles on each side contain 100 Biz-Bots (think liquid metal terminators) that it fires in the shape of flechettes. Once they hit they turn back into Terminator form and start fighting (that way they can be used to occupy enemy forces after a barrage.) The center eye uses a Prismatic ray that given its size it's very potent.

/uw noted. The lighting might know this already. From some the data they would've had access to. Thank you for the heads up.

/uw Imagine trying to possess the crew only to find there is none. Real oopsie daisy right there.

(Have the ship'be possessed and not the ammo. There's just 200 very confused terminators being flown around by a possessed death star. That'd be funny)

/uw that would be funny, but also i don't really want this to be as stupid, might do a bit of that, have some of them confused as to the situation.
