So Im aware that a few of you are mad at my last post. I think it would be best if you all start communicating and stop with the nonsense behind my back because honestly.
I did nothing wrong.
So Im going to try my best to address your points and clarify my thinking around the Gamigan post, since all of you are freaking out.

- Should I really not be in the Necro:
1.) There's an argument that I should not be here.
So for some reason, Im not supposed to be in the Necro? Which doesn't make any real sense to me. The rules allow us to not post when we aren't in combat, and so I skipped many of my non combat posts where I otherwise would have only detailed I was following the group. I did so because I had little time or muse to continue posting and so I just took my liberties.
There has always been this option. Within my last post for the Midway I caught up to the group, there was nothing to stop me from clearing the final stretch and by all means I had the flight speed to catch up to a group, given the fact that in my timeline, Zubaidah was just waiting inside the coffin.
I even detailed the fact that Jahan was trailing behind the group inside of my Midway post before moving on, and I waited for Zubaidah to free herself before continuing forward.
It is not my job to tell the DM to post again to Gamigan, nor is it right for my post to have been purposefully left out in order to screw me over. I waited, the 48 hrs passed and even Zub entered, so I entered.
At no point, did I break a singular ruling regarding this nor did I break Logic. As much as we might have taken time to get from point A to B, the dungeon stretches have been just about 300 meters. Not several miles. All I had to do to catch up was fly, and all that whomever was DM'ing had to do to slow me down was post within the 48 hrs. Its not fair to expect Zubaidah to be able to enter without a confirmation post, and then to hold me back because I didnt post when I had the right not too.
- Regarding the hate on me and my passive:
- 2. So you are all sensitive about my passive
I get it, I really do. Nobody wants to be in a position of lesser power in any situation. Which is ultimately the reason why I believe you are all mad that Im using my passive now.
Yet EVERYONE has known its effects for pretty much over a year now, and this is the 1st and ONLY time I've ever been able to use it.
While I understand that my passive is effective now because Im in a room with a lot of people in it, its not fair to attack me because you have to deal with it. I have not and can not whine when I have to deal with everyone elses shit. Literally every single A tier character is OP or Broken in some way, everyone has thought of some effective strength for their character and my passive is fairly tame considering that it COULD be far worse. It makes me think everyone expected me to never use it on them and just to have it and keep it to myself.
Well Im not, I want to be able to write cool sequences and throw everything into dissaray the way IM SUPPOSED TO. Im quite actively fulfilling my role as a character in this space.Yes Im strong but EVERYONE was aware enough to be able to prepare for me, all of you can easily get A tier strength. Its not a hardfix its a costly one, and it costs me a lot to be in equip.
At the moment in the Dungeon there are 6 people viable to be hit with the full effects of my passive. However other passives have been made to be just as if not more competitive than my own, i.e Neo's passive.
The fact of the matter is everyone knew I was coming, and everyone knew id eventually be in a small space with them. Now everyone wants to turn on me because I have the advantage in the moment, when its common sense that AT SOME POINT WERE ALL AT MORE OR LESS AN ADVANTAGE.
Christmas was just my turn to have the advantage and I used it in order to get a cool feat to my character's canon, nothing more and nothing less. I didn't attack any of you.
- Metagaming, Trent & Communications:
3. Am I truly metagaming, and notes on Trentaro
So Lestacia claims I had been metagaming.
Metagaming is to use ooc information in order to gain an in character advantage on a situation. Im assuming that means you would all think its metagaming for me to know when and when not my passive is able to effect someone?
That's a bit ludicrous because I think it would be common sense to know what your abilities do. Its just how each of us play. Yea I know when it will and wont work and on who, and I know that so that I dont metagame, and try to use it when it's not applicable in the story.
Furthermore I tried my best to use wording that simply implies that you were struggling and fighting against my strength. I did not want to flat out type you guys bowing or being completely subdued but in certain situations it is viable. There is no part of my post which stops any of you from actually attempting actions. You still have control of your characters, Im trying to state that my passive is active in a way that is both fun to read and exciting, and viable.
With that being said, some of you may not have a counter in place.
Also not my fault because counters exist for my build. Knuckles has multiple ways to counter my strength, through his natural strength and through his magoi abilities. Lestacia or Neo could have made spells to negate my strength magic or even other abilities to buff their physical strength. All of you could have gotten the A tier strength trait, and an A tier strength trait could have been applied to Ani's wyverns. Knuckles, Noir, Lagi & Ani herself are all capable of denying the full effects of my full Djinn passive. Which makes it USELESS in encounters with them, which is the whole purpose of how it was made to be balanced. Its hit or miss, it either works or it does not.
If you were subdued by it this round, well I guess Im sorry. I want this feat because it definitely writes in well to my character. When we get out of this dungeon, I suggest you all just make your counters to it and go on with your lives.
Now notes on what Trentaro said. No, I am not attacking Trently. Also, I DM'd Trently days before I posted and told him what was going on. His anger now is the same weirdo behavior that made him impossible to trust before. If you really didn't want me to use my passive on you, you should have ASKED ME. When I TOLD YOU, it was about to happen.
THE SAME GOES FOR ANI. I dm'd Ani days before this went down, and Ani just ignored me. When I was DELIBERATELY trying to explain this before hand. This is what happens when you just run away from the conversation all together instead of having it in the first place.
- Ani & Kor:
- 4. On Ani & Kor
Ani you have pretty much no reason to be mad or outraged, I dont even understand it and maybe you can clarify it to me. You are mad that in character, Jahan decided to call his child something else?
You do realize, Jahan doesnt even know a name for Kor?
You also realize this is Jahan here, and not only would he more than likely want to name his child something, but he would name his child something flashy and exalting.Like this is all common knowledge is it not?
If I really need to clarify, The entire line about him being known on Jahan's side of the world as "Aurangzeb", was to plainly state that in Jahangir's narrative the name Kor has very little value and I have planned out a whole other direction in my own narrative.
Like honestly think about it, I did hella planning on the name. The name Kor sounds Imuchakk and it works For Ani, that character and that writer.
Yet the TITLE Aurangzeb has A LOT of symbolism for my own character and writing. For instance the name Aurangzeb literally is the son of Jahan. It is literally the name of the son of the same Persian emperor that is Jahan's name sake. It parallels the name Shah'Jahan, which is the brother or Aurangzeb and son of Jahan. It means in persian. "Ornament of the throne", which references the Magic Weapon that is here for the purpose of protecting the family. It makes no sound reason for me to NOT use this title. If you would stop running from me and communicate again Ani we could be able to talk and plot about this kind of stuff.
- On Children in Magi World:
- On Children in Magi World.
On the Topic of Children in Magi world. I think we should stop treating it like " The Mother gets all rights", this website is not reality. This is not a western civilization, this is FICTION. For instance, I decided with Ani to have a kid, we were writing this together. It wasn't until recently, or I guess when I started being an asshole in spite of everything that communications cut off.
The simple point though, is that this is not real life. There is not a living creature that needs its mother, there are two dudes who are typing a story where there characters have a child. That is literally it, and so I should have some control over characters that were produced FROM MINE. There would be no Kor without Jahan, there is no way to get around that but to retcon it.
Now Im UP for the retcon, we can definitely retcon it so that Jahan and Ani never slept together and Kor is just some other persons but as long as He remains a seed from my intelligence, than I will take creative liberties. It is only right and fair, and I have no problem discussing it or compromising. You only have to stop ignoring me and start communicating again.
Though literally, there is not logical reason for kids in Magi to be up to the sole discretion of the mother, or anybody with a female character whose had sex with a male character. The entire concept of that is kind of disgusting in its own right, like any character can fade to black and then just claim pregnancy. Like thats fair or logical in a fictional game setting where there's literally another party to be like NOPE.
- Moving Forward:
And Moving forward.
As we move forward I want to point out is in incredibly unfair to me to void my post. I did not break the rules, if anything everyone else has flaked out on me. I did not get a confirmation and Im being punished for it, albeit not breaking the posting rules or the logic regarding our settings. Like literally, I repeat. We are allowed to skip our posts when we are out of combat, and I had enough speed and logical time to catch up. I began my post where I left off, and I waited several days (BEYOND the time limit for the DM) and I posted. I contacted both Ani and Trently about dungeon plotting and they ignored me for the most part. Trently simply avoided the conversation on my passive so that he could complain about it later instead of just asking me to not land by him like a real man would.
I didnt use my passive on anyone who it wouldnt be effective on, and its not my fault that those people did nothing to prepare for the possibility that this could happen. When there are several options to getting out of this. There are just as many people immune to my passive ON the site, as there are people who arent.
Everyone else in this space was able to make contact with eachother in their very first posts, nobody was placed in a position where they needed to be multiple posts to be near each other. Nor did anyone move particularly quickly in their posts. Nor did anyone have very far of a distance to be from the group.
Finally, nobody stated how many meter they were from the group, or the Asuras or the gate. All of that was left into context, so I read the context. I approached the group at A tier flight speeds, they did not travel far. There just isnt any logical reason for my post to be voided.
In the next post Im moving away from you all, or you know what, maybe ill just let you all fight Ganta alone. None the less, I want the in character reactions to my post because this is dumb its fighting the inevitable trying to just honestly deny me a moment of cool.
Because this is what it all feels like it comes down to. You all dont want me to seem powerful. like thats it, in any anime this would be the integral moment for a ton of you. A powerful unknown figure appears in the dungeon out of thin air. It only makes sense from a story perspective to interact. This is all Christmas Hate yo, like have some fun. All Im trying to do is have some fun an do something exciting which Ive ALWAYS BEEN KNOWN TO DO ON HERE.
- ON NEO:
On Neo.
If you really want to shadow crush me, than just fight me in the dungeon. I wasn't going to harm you, but if you and any of you want to kill me. This is the time. Im tired of always being threatened while telling you all that I wont hurt you. Ive told you a million times I wouldn't kill Adrastos but it hurts your pride too much to see your baby in a position where he isnt in power.
Well thats how stories go. I been vaporized two rooms ago over a petty mistake, all you have to do is interact with gravity so until i turn the shit off. I spoke to you all a million times about this passive so that someone could speak BEFORE I wanted to use it. Now everyone wants to be mad that AFTER A YEAR, I finally can. Man thats lame and selfish.
- My intent:
- Lastly My intentions
Lastly my intentions if it isnt obviously clear by now. I wrote this post and lots of other posts from my heart, like its a reflection of my own moods. I use this site to relieve stress and escape from reality and practice my writing. Nothing more or less.
I wanted to escape the boring and mind numbing experience of just sitting around waiting on life to develop into something better on Xmas. So I TREATED MYSELF. I wanted to have fun, I wanted to show off my own characters strength and make him a notable target to all of the active players in one move. So I used my favorite toy that im never able to use because Im always waiting for someone to complain about it.
Ive read everyones vault, I know SEVERAL of you have ONE TURN KILL abilities. NOT JUST ME.
All i want to do is get a reaction in character but here yall are trying to deny one of the most interesting interactions in the dungeon out of what looks like spite, jealousy and pride.
Idk if Merrze will completely disregard both this post in defense of my post, and void my Necropolis post but it is not fair. If all of you are that scared of me right now please JUST GIVE ME 1 POST. 1 fucking reaction of my passive and i'll turn it off shit.
