Also, does his house have a fire suppression system? I’m also assuming String eats and drinks there a lot since he doesn’t leave?

Yes, I would have to say his house has a fire suppression system. And yes, there’s food in his house. The guy needs to eat. Although he actually doesn’t spend much time at his house. It’s partly why his house is so clean—he rarely uses it.

@danastj123

Is there a forest nearby the mansion?

No, there isn’t. Not nearby, anyway.

@danastj123

How far does the courtyard go?

I would have to say the courtyard is fairly large. Likely between 10000-20000 square metres.
So maybe 120 metres long, if you start from the back of the estate. The area surrounding the manor is very open and essentially lawn grass, so the space around the estate expands for a mile or two. In case you decide to take the fight away from the courtyard/pond area.

@danastj123

How strong are the wind blades and slashes?

@kabanerry

@moonlightshadow412

How powerful are the slashes (+ how bad of a damage do they do once they hit you? is it like a lost-limbs or huge-cut or mild-cut?)?

If you get hit head-on with a slash, it’s going to cut you open, badly. I would say it has the same weight as a heavy greatsword, so you don’t want to get hit needlessly. So in this case, it’d be a pretty huge cut.

@danastj123

Are the healing winds actual breezes? What’s so different about them from normal winds?

Healing winds are actual breezes anyone can feel. Following the limits stated in the prompt, they simply heal whoever they pass over.

@danastj123

How would his healing winds work in the water?

The winds would manifest around Jun as normal. Arguably, it’d be harder for his opponent to benefit from Jun’s healing wind in this scenario.

@danastj123

Any details about Jun Hinode’s father’s kingdom you’re willing to spare? (Enemies, specifically. . .)Though I think it’s probably just left at that.

Jun’s kingdom doesn’t really have any specific enemies. Since they’re essentially being governed by the Empire, they are protected by the Empire as well. So countries wouldn’t attack Jun’s kingdom without attacking the Empire by proxy. If you want anything specific, you’ll have to ask and I’ll see if I can give you any information.

@danastj123

I’m now wondering how opponents that are a player’s character work. Do they exempt the player from making a response?

[kabanerry]

@S0NDer

Is there a gate/wall for the house boundary/path or is it just forest and house?

It’s just forest and a house.

@S0NDer

Would the door be unlocked as he knows we’re coming/any windows open or does she fully have to break in with lockpicking and all?

She might be able to find an open window, but she would most likely have to lockpick her way inside if that’s her strategy. It’s up to you.

@S0NDer

Would he turn any lights on once they have seen each other?

No. He wouldn’t need to, arguably. Since his house is fairly open and allows a lot of light in, the early sun would probably be enough.

@S0NDer

Would he be able to see the sudek other than her eye glowing and fight them with his powers or will they all (par Ty) continue to be invisible to all but lil?

The sudek don’t manifest physically, right? Then String-eye wouldn’t be able to see them. (Apart from Ty, of course).

@S0NDer

If he can see them will he go for them or just lil? And if he does go for them will that effect their powers that are going through lil?

N/A

@S0NDer

Is the fire on? Is it electronic?

What do you mean? The fireplace in his house? It’s electric and yes, it’s on.

@S0NDer

Is there any lakes in the forest or is it just wood?

There are lakes in the forest, but they aren’t very close to his house.

@S0NDer

can we insert part of the prompt into the response, like copy and paste, or should I leave that out?

You can insert part of the prompt into your response if that’s what you want to do, to make things easier! Just be sure to change the pronouns and such, so that it makes sense.

[moonlightshadow412]

How fast are the air slashes?

[kabanerry]

@moonlightshadow412

How fast are the air slashes?

I would say around 100mph. To dodge them, you’d have to move preemptively.

[S0NDer]

@kabanerry

The sudek don’t manifest physically, right?

They manifest as like a ghost for lil but choose not to let others see them (Ty doesn’t care and let’s everyone see him) so that’s why I was wondering. Because like, they are there but no one else knows that

And thank you for the help

[moonlightshadow412]

@kabanerry

move preemptively.

In which case, does he move accordingly? Like does Jun load up for an air slash or nah?

[kabanerry]

@moonlightshadow412

In which case, does he move accordingly? Like does Jun load up for an air slash or nah?

Jun’s arm moves whenever he’s unleashing an air slash (just a simple arm swipe left, right, up, down, diagonally etc), so characters get a second warning before a slash gets sent their way. It’s not very long.

[moonlightshadow412]

Back to the shield thing. Is it a perfect sphere around him, like a little bubble? Does it extend in all directions, 3D? How much do you have to put into it to break it (if it’s active)? And he can attack through the shield too right?

What subjects make Jun testy?

[sadboy9000]

Is the system routed internally or externally, e.g., the pumps are on the roof or buried in the ground?

[danastj123]

Questions!

• Can Jun Hinode dematerialize blades at will?
• Can he choose which attacks to deflect with his shield?
• Can we knock the air blades off his hands?
• Does his travelling mist work like a ghost’s? (We can feel his presence, he can pass through surfaces, and/or he keeps his molecules close to him yet far enough so he could perform said abilities.)
• Assuming it works, can we kill him by throwing an object and then he “coincidentally” solidifies himself?
• Does his travelling mist have a cool down before he could use it again?
• How does him attacking in his mist form work? Literally wind punching you?
• What does Jun holding his blades look like? Can we see him holding it or not?
• So his shield can block all the time but it would two deflections to shatter it? Or both blocking and deflecting can break his shield?

@S0NDer

This one is probably dumb: can we insert part of the prompt into the response, like copy and paste, or should I leave that out?

I noticed Kab already answered your question, but if you want to know my pov on this you could go through some of the Raid responses and my reviews of them, I believe specifically Glitch, Sydney (Evander) and Blitzei.
(and no this is not gonna gain/cost you any points if you do/don’t do it)

[S0NDer]

Hey @kabanerry, how close is the house to a road? Like I know how big the forest is, but is there a road that leads to his house that Lil can get dropped off on or is his house isolated to the point where it’s just dirt paths to get to it?

[kabanerry]

@moonlightshadow412

Back to the shield thing. Is it a perfect sphere around him, like a little bubble? Does it extend in all directions, 3D?

It is a 3D sphere around him. Like this, but blue and more ‘invisible’. You can’t really see the vortex-esque shield as much you could feel it (you’re not blown away, it would feel like a soft breeze) or see slight trails of air.

@moonlightshadow412

How much do you have to put into it to break it (if it’s active)?

A considerable amount of force. Slashing at it with blades or medium-scale magic attacks wouldn’t break it. Large scale attacks would break it, but not really pass through the shield (so Jun wouldn’t get hurt).

@moonlightshadow412

And he can attack through the shield too right?

Yes he can.

@moonlightshadow412

What subjects make Jun testy?

I would say anything relating to the powerlessness of his nation, would get him ‘testy’.

[kabanerry]

@sadboy9000

Is the system routed internally or externally, e.g., the pumps are on the roof or buried in the ground?

Pumps would likely be underground.

[kabanerry]

@danastj123

Can Jun Hinode dematerialize blades at will?

Yes he can.

@danastj123

Can he choose which attacks to deflect with his shield?

He can, but he’d choose to deflect everything in this fight.

@danastj123

Can we knock the air blades off his hands?

No. Since they are quite literally air, you can’t knock them out of his hands. Plus, the blades extend from his actual hand, so they don’t have a handle or grip.

@danastj123

Does his travelling mist work like a ghost’s? (We can feel his presence, he can pass through surfaces, and/or he keeps his molecules close to him yet far enough so he could perform said abilities.)

Jun cannot pass through objects in this form, so it doesn’t work like a ghost’s.

@danastj123

Assuming it works, can we kill him by throwing an object and then he “coincidentally” solidifies himself?

Jun would simply materialise away from the object in this case, so no, this wouldn’t work.

@danastj123

Does his travelling mist have a cool down before he could use it again?

No.

@danastj123

How does him attacking in his mist form work? Literally wind punching you?

Yes, it is like wind punching you.

@danastj123

What does Jun holding his blades look like? Can we see him holding it or not?

Imagine this, but an invisible blade extending from the wrist down, encasing his whole hand. The sword isn’t an actual sword that you can hold normally.

click me

@danastj123

So his shield can block all the time but it would two deflections to shatter it? Or both blocking and deflecting can break his shield?

Jun’s shield can take up to 2 attacks without him having to do anything. Then it will ‘break’. After which, Jun will have to start putting the shield up himself instead of it passively protecting him. The shield has unlimited uses, it’s only after the first 2 attacks does Jun have to think about actively defending himelf.

Every time the shield ‘blocks’ an attack, it also deflects it.

@S0NDer

how close is the house to a road? Like I know how big the forest is, but is there a road that leads to his house that Lil can get dropped off on or is his house isolated to the point where it’s just dirt paths to get to it?

No, there is no road that leads to String-eye’s house. There’s only ‘dirt’ paths (albeit nice ones).

[S0NDer]

Hnnng that’s not really helpful, but thanks

Okay. So. It extends into the ground, right? lowkey wondering abt the poor earthworms akdjhfagfkjh And he can control the size of it… by will? Or as needed?
