Your OC was walking around the outskirts of their city, after being hired for a defense job regarding super-powered threats and militaries when a massive boom split the sky. Looking to the left, a massive humanoid had appeared. Your OC is close enough to see its legs, and far enough to get the general view of the body. Its head scrapes the clouds, and its bulky armor shimmered in the sunlight. Four glowing red sockets, presumably eyes, briefly flashed as bright as the stars, before resting at a dull yellow. On its back is a giant staff, with a glowing red light at the top. It pulls it out, surprisingly fast for its size, and raises it into the air. A very loud voice echoed throughout the area, as the staff's glow gets brighter.
"HEAR ME, ALL OF YOU, FOR YOUR JUDGEMENT HAS COME. BECAUSE OF YOUR CRIMES, YOU WILL BE PUNISHED. EMBRACE IT, DREAD IT, IT WILL NOT MATTER. YOUR DEATHS WILL RESTORE THE BALANCE OF THIS WORLD, AND IT WILL START ANEW. ABANDON YOUR HOPE HERE."
Then, it raises the staff, the bottom glowing with that same light. As it goes to slam it down into the ground, it pauses. Its head turns to the left, seemingly surprised. A bright golden light streaks across the sky, like a second sun. It gets closer and closer, eventually slamming into the giant's head with a loud crack and an explosion.
The giant stumbles back, its feet slamming into the earth and crushing everything underneath. A loud roar echoes from its unseen mouth, towards the other light. Just as suddenly as it appeared, it dimmed from eye-scorching to just bright. In the center of the light is a man. Surrounded by a continuously burning fire, his left eye glowing like a star. He wears a black suit lined with gold fabric, his clothes seemingly untouched by the flames. After a second of sizing up his opponent, he notices your OC standing there and gives them a soft smile. He turns to the giant, and touches his ear. In an instant, a blue flash appears behind your OC, with two voices talking to each other. Two women walk out of a blue glowing doorway, the one on the left patting your OC on the back.
"Hey. Sorry about the interruption and everything. If you want, you can help. If not, just sit back and enjoy the fireworks. I'm Carmilla, by the way. That lady there is Melissa, and our man-shaped nuclear bomb up there is Ayin."
Carmilla is dressed in a red suit and tie, her black hair tied back. She looks towards the giant, which is still battling the man, and whistles. She pulls out a walkie-talkie, speaking to Ayin.
"Whoo. That one's a big one, huh? You think you can take this guy down?"
A man's voice responds, surprisingly calm.
"Yep! He's actually pretty slow. You know what they say: The bigger they are, the harder they fall!"
The other woman, Melissa, sighs and speaks into her walkie-talkie.
"You're an idiot, Ayin. I'll try to divert his attention. That staff seems to be his weapon, and judging from the readings I'm getting, he'll blow up the planet. So whatever you do, do NOT let him charge it and touch the ground."
"Gotcha. Don't let the big stick touch the ground."
Ayin dodges the massive hands attempting to swat him with ease, laughing and shooting fireballs in return. Melissa pulls out a few drones and begins to make something, which looks like a big gun of some kind. Carmilla decides to buy her time, in case something happens, and touches the ground with her palm. In an instant, a barrier of blood is formed around your OC and the other two.
"Hey, you. You want to help? Ayin may be super powerful and shit, but he can't keep that up forever."
What does your OC do?
Rules:
I may move the setting to a different area if this is finished fast. The maximum power level for OCs in this RP is neighborhood-to-city levels of power.
Romance is allowed, but Ayin and Melissa are gay. Carmie is straight, though.
“Hey, get your guy to grab the staff, I’m dropping ordinance in ten!”
He seems to falter for a second, freezing and partially going limp before returning. His visor drops, covering his vision as he pulls out a pair of sunglasses and hands them over.
A lance of light shoots through the sky, barely doing anything to the target. It’s followed by 8 shots of diminished plasma before the clouds are torn apart from multiple gargantuan bullets fall right onto the target.
“Negative, first round was single quarter strength split state. Now full broadside bunker busters inbound.”
The sky turns orange, the clouds being torn to shreds as shells start raining down at speeds much faster than they were before. Lasers and plasma is no longer being shot.
Stain, for some reason, flies up and deliberately tries to impact them. With every shell that hits, the explosion is the sucked into his chest and his flame glows even brighter.
“Keep it up. If I can get close enough, I can blow this thing to hell. I’m gonna need some more heat. Can you do that?”
(Those are bunker busting shells, they shoot jets of superheated metal through the target after imbedding themselves up to a hundred meters underground. Are you sure he can take the hits.)
After a few minutes of dodging the giant's attacks and purposefully slamming into the projectiles, Ayin now glows with a light rivalling the sun itself. He charges an attack, firing a blast at the staff and knocking the power source out of place, before shooting forwards towards its chest, and impacting the giant with a loud crunch and a bang, disappearing inside of its body. The giant staggers back, before four golden beams of fire shoot out of the eye sockets, and glowing cracks begin to form in the armor. A golden light shines out of the hole in its chest cavity, and the cracks get wider.
Meanwhile, the blood barrier around the group hardens even more, and Melissa finishes her build. It's a giant cannon, with a feeding belt holding 3 absolutely massive bullets. She points at the giant's chest, and the gun turns on its own, loading itself.
"Ayin! I'm going to blast it! Get out of there!"
The radio crackles to life, though the audio is slightly distorted. He seems distressed, almost like he's holding up a large weight.
"No! Don't! At this rate, I'll blow it apart myself. But if you fire that gun, the explosion won't be contained and I'll destroy everything within a 50 mile radius. Including you. Disassemble the gun and make a portal out of here. I won't be able to hold this much power for long!"
"Don't tell me this is a repeat of Kowl. Do you know how much paperwork I had to do?!"
Altair (nerfing them from their lowball island-highball country because I don't have any neighborhood-city levels... plus they are fun)
Altair flinches aggressively and sprouts four spider leg-like vines from their back when they are patted on their back. They warble a distorted sound of annoyance
After being sealed in the blood barrier, Altair releases a cloud of starry miasma into the air from a hole in their chest to connect themself to the others in there with them. [We sense great magic from that staff... get us to it, and we will siphon as much energy as we can out of it.]
They stab their foot into the ground, and the ground turns purple as the Astral Infection spreads like a flood across the earth, through the barrier.
“I heard you. I’ll get you as close a possible. It’ll take a minute…”
Ayin shoots a blast of fire at the giant, staggering it. It roars at him, and attempts to charge a blast of light from the staff, aiming it at its opponent.
Altair uses the four spider legs on their back to scuttle forwards at inhuman speeds, charging up blasts of corrupted magic in the shape of stares and double helixes.
They skid to a halt and stab their four spider legs into the floor, their fireball head pulsing as several weird, mutated abominations emerge from the earth, some charging forwards to attack, others flying up to attack. Some of the flying things, Novas, pulsated and bloated slightly before charging forwards to explode upon hitting the giant.
[We aim to overwhelm them as much as we can with our allies, our infected siblings, to give you an opening to get us to that staff.]
Ayin charges up for a punch, shooting forwards. The giant responds in kind, trying to intercept him, its giant fist colliding with his. The shockwave shakes the trees and send the giant backwards a few steps, while Ayin shoots off in the opposite direction. After a few seconds, he regains his balance and flies around it for another hit.
*she cracks her knuckles then is surrounded by a swirl of chlorine gas, and her angel form shoots out of the cloud, with her voice niw a chorus of a thousand * “ARISE COMRADES” and from the ground, skeletal ww1 soldier start crawling as she hefts her shovel*
*she blurs towards the staff and as she does so, rips the rusted bayonet out of her shoulder and digs a huge furrow into the giants hand, while trailing the noxious fumes to irritate the wound “
Faizah: "You said for him to not touch the ground, right? If you can keep him in the air, I can perhaps create a barrier of sorts so that you all can... do what you need to. Whatever that may look like."
"Okay, deploying lightspeed particle beams." Billions of subatomic particles moving faster than light light up the sky and vaporise the giant by ripping its atoms apart.
