In case you have any preemptive ideas, though mostly everyone will be present.

SANS THE SKELETON WEREWOLF

[osteothropy]

Just to have an idea, who is specifically interested in fighting werewolf Sans? AKA, 10 ft + skeleton wolf that looks like this.

He's been thralled by one of the elder vampires and basically completely mind controlled into going werewolf feral at this point, so he's going to be lasering it up pretty heard, but also being fairly self destructive. If you kill his werewolf form it turns into a pile of dust with his tiny regular bod inside of it, so lethal force can be used, not that anyone will know that. Excepy maybe Papyrus.

[cuckooed]

Koel is pretty bad off, thanks to all of the iron she was tied with as well as the torture she's had to endure. She will want to try to fight other vampires when she is finally free - except she can't, since she is seriously injured. So carrying her off - as she futilely tries to tell her rescuers OH NO I CAN TOTALLY FIGHT KIDS COME ON BLOOD DEMANDS BLOOD BE NICE TO GRANDMA but she now has no voice to speak of and she can't really fight back anymore or really move - will be pretty easy. Its just a question of getting her out of the numerous restraints put on her!

[whattaprick]

I'm down for this, but I'm also terrible at writing fight scenes, so I'm sorry in advance. (*´∀｀)bﾟ It would probably best to handle this as some kind of teamup, since left to his own Lambert would just be likely to straight up attempt killing him which would be a real bad time.

[osteothropy]

I'm mostly in it for the Mind Control drama so the fight scene doesn't have to be intricately detailed or anything. Thankfully if you kill the werewolf form he just reverts to his regular skeleton form so even if Lambert gets too knifey HE WILL BE OKAY.

I at least assume Pap is gunna want to be there.

[whattaprick]

This doesn't really fit in the above, but this is an option for people coming from the carnival side of things! Lambert spent the last two days prepping some anti-vampire shit, if characters are interested in availing themselves of it!

Vampire oil is what it says on the tin, a silver-infused tallow you can smear on whatever weapons you have to do that bit of extra damage even with non-silver weapons. It does need to be reapplied periodically to be effective, but maybe you can come up with additional ~creative~ uses.

Black Blood is a freaky witcher potion that will temporarily (~1 hr-ish) render your blood toxic to vampires! It won't kill them, but it can slow them down and damage them to make them easier to take down with weapons. Downside is, it's also pretty toxic! If your character is already advanced in their fae transformation, has a natural resistance to poisons, or is otherwise protected against their effects, they should be fine. Otherwise, they may experience one of the following delightful side effects upon ingestion:
* Excruciating pain! It won't kill you, but it'll suck for a bit, but at least it will also suck for anyone who bites you?
* It can trigger a common change or alter an existing one slightly, like changing the colors of markings, giving you additional horns, or what-have-you. Nothing crazy.
* Mental side-effects -- for duration of the potion's effect, some aspect of your character is heightened -- maybe their anger, paranoia or animalistic attributes? You decide.

Lemme know if you're interested so we can come up with some conceivable reason any of this got slapped into your character's hand, and also so I can keep track! Vampire oil he'd have a ton of but less of black blood.

Re: SANS THE SKELETON WEREWOLF

[moonfang]

Wrong account BUT THIS IS FISHBONE. Rin is in for faitoing Sanswoof

[whattaprick]

I don't plan to top-level for Lambert unless someone really wants at him -- he's mainly interested in kicking ass (when stealth inevitably fails) and also in using magic to attempt to squeeze information out of the small fry to find the supervisors!

I'm down to play attempting sneaking around with other rescuers, fightin', or the aforesaid info-extraction. He's also got some anti-vampire shit if people want to play anything out wrt handing that over. I'm gonna have dicey internet access over the next week or so, which will mean slow tagging!

[atouts]

THIS IS THE WRONG ACCOUNT but if Rin is there, Shima might as well be there, too.

He has enough experience not being killed by flaming blue energy anyhow...

The Psionic

[dorkypantsuit]

He's going to shoot eye lasers at you guys. PEW PEW.

Who wants a piece of this hot chunk of meet?

He may or may not be naked still. Undecided as of right now.

[destiny_key]

Since I've topleveled the past two logs, I don't plan on top leveling for Sora this time around. I'll probably throw him around a bunch though.

However, if you want a toplevel for Sora, OR if you'd like to 'play' with Xabat (eg; fight him), then let me know and I'll be happy to do so! <3

[toogoodtoopure]

I'm not planning top level for Yuugi this time around but he's been trying to figure out a way to get out ever since they all got put into vampire day care. Once the commotions start he's going to take advantage of shit and try to take down one or two (one at most, two at his hopefulest) of the "gangs". If that sounds like something anyone wants to join in on (and assume they've made contact with him over the last couple of days or hear and just jump in), hmu!

[sunflowerfields]

omg put some damn pants on

[spaghettimonster]

YOU WOULD ASSUME CORRECTLY

Papyrus is now an expert on how to kill werewolf Sans without killing the skeleton himself
thankfully???

[osteothropy]

SHOOT HIM IN THE FACE AND THEN HE'S OK SOMEHOW?!?

The dogs will come with Papyrus, but they will basically flop over in submission as soon as Sans shows up.

[stillwinningthehardway]

/lightsabers the lasers

man, I don't remember why I have a blaster icon but not a lightsaber one.

[stillwinningthehardway]

I don't have a whole lot of free time coming up, but Scout will be in this log. ...Vampires are not satisfactorily affected by her famous chokeholds, and that's the central feature of her brawling, so she'll be relying more heavily on her lightsaber. Did you know, to Jedi cutting off someone's hand is considered a merciful way to end a fight??

I mean it's not her only trick, she's really good at unarmed combat and can still incapacitate people who don't black out if blood's denied to the brain, so one-on-one she could subdue someone without causing serious injury, if you want someone for that.

[spaghettimonster]

You had one job, dogs.

And apparently that was providing morale and bitey lasers on the trip over.

[kingsroads]

This also doesn't really fit in all the above b/c it can deal with all sorts of people stuck in hell, but Strange can do scrying magic and will happily be offering to creep on any supervisor/captive/what have you.

This is creepy spying, not any sort of tracking magic. Basin gets filled up with water, spell gets cast, reflection of the person and what they're currently doing appears in the basin. It's not good for things like finding people, but it is good for things like checking on what conditions some of the supervisors/babyvamps are in before everybody goes charging in all Leeroy Jenkins. Scrying magic can be pretty imprecise so it can work or not work as needed. I'm 100% up for either handwaving or threading out 'and then Strange used magic to creep on a supervisor to see what they were like before the party got split' or 'well Character X knows that Character Y's a beat up vampire in the vampire playpen because creepy magic' as needed. As a note, he'll only be able to use the magic to see the people in hell while they're in hell: you can't check back on so and so at the carnival.

This also means that he'll be lugging around a footish width basin and probably has to make a tiny rainstorm every now and then to actually fill up the basin when he inevitably runs out of the water he'll bring along, look, english magic is respectable, not convenient.

[flashover]

Rin will happily take a bunch of that vampire oil to rub on his sword. I assume, being oil, it is... flammable, though.

[whattaprick]

I've genuinely never had to consider this before ... ... ... but sure, lets go with that! Σｄ(ﾟ∀ﾟ)
