ULTRAMagic Chaos Chapter 15

The warriors of Wulfric’s domain were startled to see Delphine soaring through the sky. It was not unheard of, but she had already visited the realm not too long ago. She shook the metallic, windy wastelands, not stopping for anything until she reached her husband’s fortress. At the center of a series of imposing mountains was the home of the Discordant God of War. The impenetrable, rampart fortress stood firm and strong against the elements. It was the final and greatest test for anyone that sought to challenge his domain.

The heavily armored god sat at his throne, contemplating everything that had transpired thus far. Dull light from the overcast sky illuminated the room and there was a distinct chill in the air from all of the wind. Wulfric was full of anxiety and what he was sensing was not helping in the slightest.

“Why is everyone all up in arms at the moment?” He groaned as he looked into a glass orb next to his seat. “I didn’t call for any mobilization…”

“My lord?” an armored man with silver hair asked as he entered the throne room. He looked worried.

“What is it, Commander Anara?”

“Your wife’s here… and she’s not happy.”

“Dear, where’s that insufferable ingrate, Karnage?” Delphine asked as she marched in. “I’m going to kill him, for real this time.”

Wulfric had a look of utmost, mortified disdain on his face. “What did he do this time?”

“He sent those loathsome Death Riders into my realm to kill Raisa, and presumably Hannibal while they were at it.”

“WHAT!?” Wulfric’s voice thundered through the throne room.

“That slippery bastard!” Anara exclaimed. “Just who does he think he is? We’re in the middle of a war!”

Wulfric tried to take a breath to keep his nerves steady, but the realm shook regardless. “This campaign was a mistake…” he angrily muttered.

Delphine turned to Anara. “Where is he?”

“We’re not sure. He’s been fairly quiet this past week…”

“Wulfric, you’re being played like a damn fiddle!” Ealdhelm declared as he came in through a side door with Waltheof. Both of them were fully armored.

Wulfric slammed his fist on his arm rest. “Well that’s just swell!”

“Ah, Ealdhelm, I trust Adelheid told you about what’s going on?” Delphine asked.

“Well actually Dragutin came back early and told us, which confirmed a great deal of suspicions Cyneberht and Wynstan had dug up.”

Wulfric gave a harsh sigh, his aggravation mounting. “I kept telling myself it wasn’t Karnage. I wanted all of this to be an actual threat…”

“Ealdhelm, do you have any idea why Karnage is doing this?” Anara inquired.

“Outside of delusions of grandeur, we’re not sure.”

“I don’t want to pry, but it could be jealously over Wynstan” Waltheof put forth. “Given that Wulfric favored Karnage prior to his son’s birth…”

That thought ignited Wulfric’s blood. “Excuse me?! I raise Karnage up from squalor and this is how he repays me!?”

“Wulfric, I highly suggest we end this conflict and focus on the bigger issue at hand” Ealdhelm proposed.

He thought about it for a second. “You know what, brother? You’re right. It’s about time we…”

“Ealdhelm, we have a problem here in the city…” one of the arbiter’s voices said through the glass orb.

“What is it, Osbeorn?”

“It looks like Karnage sent Milosh’s militia to attack Droomopolis.”

Wulfric shot up from his throne, gritting his teeth. “IT’S TIME WE RIPPED THAT TRAITOR’S SPINE OUT THROUGH HIS THROAT!” He shouted as he stomped towards the exit.

“Don’t you want to hear the rest of the intel?” Waltheof questioned.

“All of you follow me!” Wulfric ordered. The arbiter shrugged.

Ealdhelm turned to the orb. “Hold the line until we get back, Osbeorn.”

While this was happening, the rest of Hannibal’s army had rallied together the Windsword tribe and Anara’s army to launch an assault on Karnage’s fortress. It was out of line, but Wulfric had no tolerance for dishonor and treachery. Their duty was to purge Karnage from the realm, even if the ex-general’s raw strength defied them. As for the composite army itself, the Windswords were sellswords and Anara’s army was armored, mounted cavalry. Together with the Void Orcs they made a truly unorthodox army, but it would have to do. Unfortunately Karnage’s army was no laughing matter.

Many of Wulfric’s forces were under the command of Karnage. They were slowly defecting, but many had sworn allegiance to the traitor. The battle was fierce as armored warriors clashed with blades, clubs, and gunfire. Of course Karnage stood at the top of his fortress, laughing as he thought he had an ace up his sleeve… until Wulfric showed up. The Discordant God approached, his scarlet cape fluttering in the wind and the sunlight shining off of his dark gray armor. A good portion of Karnage’s army surrendered when they saw his angered expression and those dumb enough to attack were smited where they stood.

Karnage leapt down and stepped up to his former lord. “Well, well, well, Wulfric. Come to cry and snivel over how your war is going nowhere?” His lackeys tried to laugh, but it was all incredibly nervous.

“You have a lot of nerve, boy. I made you who you are, and this is how you repay me?” Wulfric’s fury was so great that it caused all of the combatants to pause their fighting. “What is it? Is it my rightful son? The fact that Anara has been outperforming you? Are you truly that petty?”

“Oh cut the bravado, you pompous windbag. You and I both know you don’t have the mettle to truly lead the Cosmos into a new era. You're an old hat, over the hill! You’re so blinded by your nature that you couldn’t even lead a parade…”

Wulfric cut him off with a strong punch that sent Karnage flying into the wall of his fortress. “I can destroy you just as easily as I made you.” He declared as he summoned his greatsword, the realm hollowing as he ripped it out of thin air.

Karnage laughed maniacally as he got up and summoned two bastard swords. “You’ve made something beyond your comprehension” he growled.

The battle reginited, with Anara taking command of the composite army. Ealdhelm and Waltheof joined him while Delphine assisted Wulfric. Karnage was incredibly strong, despite not being in Wulfric’s league. He was able to hold his own against him and Delphine. Their blades clashed fiercely as the battle between the two armies raged on around them. Ultimately the tenacity of the Void Orcs and the grit of their allies ended up winning out in the end.

Karnage could sense he was on the ropes and figured it was time to cut his losses. Given that Delphine had called in her army, he needed to split. After creating some distance between him and Wulfric, Karnage flew into the air and snapped his fingers. His fortress began to phase away, prompting what remained of his forces to pile inside.

“While it has been fun, this is where we must part ways!” Karnage declared with a great degree of taunting in his voice. “Dasvidaniya, Wulfric!”

Wulfric was not having any of this and grabbed the fortress, ripping it out of the ground. “Don’t forget your parting gift!” He then hurled it straight at Karnage. “AND NEVER COME BACK!” He shouted as it disappeared into the great beyond. This elicited great cheers and applause.

“Poo, I really wanted to strangle him…” Delphine lamented.

“You’re not going to finish him off, brother?” Ealdhelm asked.

“As much as I want to, now’s not the time…” Wulfric turned to face what remained of the traitors. “Would anyone else like to join him?” They all got on their knees. “Good, just what I thought.”

“That’s awfully generous of you, Wulfric,” Waltheof observed.

“I’m fully aware. It would be a waste of good talent if I executed them. I’ll make sure they work long and hard to repent for what they’ve done.”

“Very good, my lord,” Anara complimented.

“Speaking of which, Anara, you have been a true soldier and leader in these trying times…”

Anara bent the knee, having a good feeling about what was about to happen. “My lord…”

“Arise, General Anara, my new champion.” Everyone applauded and cheered as a new fortress arose from the ground behind them.

“You will not regret this, my lord!” Anara declared with pride and gratitude.

Wulfric smiled and laughed for the first time in a while. “Make me proud, general. Now, the rest of you! Our conflict with the arbiters is officially over. Return to your realms to rest up. We have bigger issues on the horizon to worry about. And as for Hannibal, he will receive special honors when he returns.” This caused particularly fervent applause and cheers from the Void Orcs.

Upon returning to his fortress with Delphine, Ealdhelm, and Waltheof, Wulfric was greeted by Kleitos and Driskoll. “Please tell me you two didn’t already know about this…”

“Nope,” Kleitos replied. “I’m not surprised though.”

“I had my suspicions, but I didn’t want to say anything lest Karnage retaliated” Driskoll answered.

“Good call,” Wulfric said as he sat down on his throne. “Your subjects don’t deserve such a fate.” He then massaged his temples and sighed.

“Not to rub salt into the wound, but where has all of this gotten us?” Driskoll questioned.

Wulfric nodded. “Nowhere, and that’s what angers me.”

Kleitos moseyed over to a chair and sat down. “War was never my forte anyways…”

“It wouldn’t hurt for you to learn regardless” Walthoef pointed out. “Especially given what just transpired.”

“Fair point. Now that we’re done with this fighting nonsense, I want to sit down and get to know our new brothers and sisters. Ulrich’s been discovering all sorts of fascinating stuff at his space station.”

“Ah yes, the new Discordant Gods of Chaos” Diskoll acknowledged. “With Rahela finishing up her ascension, it would behoove us to be there for them, Wulfric.”

“Especially given all the ruckus we just stirred up…” Wulfric admitted. “Delphine, are you and Adelheid still…?”

“We’ve started to reconcile with each other,” she replied.

Ealdhelm was surprised by this. “Really now? Well that makes things a whole lot easier. Brother, if you’re still worried about the rogue gods, the arbiters and I have your back.”

“Well that and the gods of order… and the bizarre gods. Regardless, I think it’s safe to say that brute force isn’t the answer. As the Discordant God of War, I’ve shown a distinct lack of discipline, looking back on it. Conquering the Cosmos? What was I even thinking? If I did that then there would be no true conflict!” The others laughed.

“Fear is a powerful thing, Wulfric,” Driskoll said as he stroked his beard. “It makes us do things we normally wouldn't do out of desperation.”

“Huh, it’s surprising that a Discordant God of Fear didn’t pop up now that I think about it...” Kleitos started to say.

Delphine appeared behind him and put her hand over his mouth. “Shh! Don’t say that or one will start gestating.” This warranted some chuckles.

Wulfric paused to think. “Speaking of our fellow gods, I shall oversee Leonard. What about all of you?”

“I see no reason to discontinue my partnership with Adelheid,” Driskoll answered.

“I’ll take care of Rahela,” Delphine said with a giggle. “She’s such a little darling.”

“Ooh, I got Ulrich!” Kleitos said eagerly.

“Most excellent,” Ealdhelm replied. “Given how certain kingdoms in the Unlight are getting back on their feet, I think we’ve got a bright future ahead of us. Personally I am really looking forward to the ULTRAMagic Guild…”

“Ealdhelm, the city!” Walthoef interjected after a sudden realization.

“SHOOT! Brother, help?!”

Wulfric stood right up. “Let’s roll! Kleitos, Driskoll, head back to your realms real quickly and make sure Karnage didn’t pull anything!”

“Already on it!” Kleitos said as the two vanished.

“Delphine, let’s go check on our niece.” The four then entered the portal Ealdhelm had created.

There was no getting around it, Wulfric was still worried. He was aware deep down that Karnage was working with rogue gods. Wulfric’s pride had blinded him to that fact and now he had to deal with the consequences. It was going to require an arm and a leg to regain his honor, but the god was more than willing to pay that price. Knowing his brother still cared for him helped a great deal. The rogue gods were a nearly insurmountable threat, but Wulfric had renewed confidence and vigor now that Karnage was gone, preventing that traitor from insulting and putting him down.

Adelheide Tochter Kirschnereit

Age 15

I imagine her hair is kept in a loose ponytail, with fringe similar to Matthias'. It's a darker sea-green color.

Her eyes would be sharper, but colored light pink.

She's a trans girl

In a modern setting I imagine she goes with the dress shirt with rolled up sleeves + pants with suspenders fit. Something classy but practical enough.

Her patron deity would be Verdrenna, Goddess of Thunder and Lightning and subordinate to Flutrane.

Nobles have to keep up facades, but if she's being allowed to show emotion she would definitely be on the more intense side. Girl is full of generational anger towards Hauchletzte and would show it if she could.

On the tall side.

Her favored weapon is a halberd, and prefers to meet opponents either on even ground or with mana blasts. She's not a bad rider, she just enjoys the benefits of footwork and body-enhancing magic. She enjoys cartography, Gewinnen, and playing the pipe organ. She prefers her tea sweet and accompanied with many cookies. She is the fourth in a set of five siblings, and strives to become a Knight Commander to support the next Aub. Or if they all spontaneously combust, become an Aub with no fear of war. She wears a twisted silver and gold bracelet with a green feystone embedded in the center, a family heirloom.

To confess my sins, I had actually deleted her bio with the intention to rewrite it... a couple of months ago. So this was actually a good motivator to really think about what's going on with her. Apologies if I yapped too close to the sun.

I just had an idea to add to my most current Ascendance of a bookworm project. So if you have a OC in the aob universe, I can add them into the project as a personal Easter egg.

If you want to join, here's what I need (*required):

Name

Age (max. 17, you can just alter it)

Haircut + hair colour (dark/light)*

Eye shape + eye color (dark/light)*

Gender*

Dress (modern style)*

Patron Deity (eternal/subordinate god/goddess) [please don't use the 2 supreme gods]*

Expression (looks angry, confused, happy, ...)*

Height (tall/short)*

Hobbies/accessories/fav weaponry

You can either DM me or reblog this.

MGRP Black: Character Names

So the time is finally upon us (even though it’s cutting it very short thank you very much Monthly MGRP). We now have a name of the Magical Girls from Black.

These are my WIP transliterated names. They may be subject to change (especially one of them since it’s a kanji situation), but here are the names and some interesting opinions I have on ‘em

Calcolo (カルコロ)

Such a cute math girl. Incidentally, Calcolo is also the name of a children’s math board game-ish kinda thing (like Monopoly) in Japan back in the day. 

Tetty Goodniegl ( テティ・グットニーギル)

And this is where the whole WIP name comes into play. Meet our cover girl, with a last name that can be... let’s say taken in a couple different directions. The way I went about it is to figure out what would logically make sense, and with her transliteration being Gutt, I didn’t even use “Good” at first. That is, until Tetty herself saved me. What do I mean by that? I mean that the key lies in her mittens. Each hand spells out “Tetty” and “Good”, so I went with that. Separating Tetty and Good, leaves just Niigiru. For now, it might be Niegl, but I have a sneaking suspicion it could be a morph of Onigiri, a bizarrely applied morph from Onigiri to Niigiru, but a morph nonetheless. (Incidentally, if I were to just Englishize that morph, that would mean her last name is something like Goodrice).

Miss Lille (ミス・リール)

Miss Lille’s little Anime snippet is interesting. It concerns a lady who is very rich who wants to give alms to the poor. I wonder if she’ll end up being that nice in canon? Incidentally, Lille is also the name of a city in France. Whether that’s actually relevant or not is beyond me, though. But it’s a cool fact!

Wrappy Tip (ラッピー・ティップ)

What can I say about Wrappy? She’s covered in wraps, and has probably the best name in Black. I mean, Wrappy Tip. It’s almost Funny Trick levels of best name in an arc.

Drill Dory and Ark Arlie (ドリル・ドリー＆アーク・アーリー)

Double feature! Also it seems Arlie changed her first name (maybe cause she took off that faceplate). We finally have the fourth ABC girl, Drill Dory!!! I gave her that name because the ABC girls in Japanese try to keep the first phoneme similar. Aamaa Aarii, Aaku Aarii, Doriru Dorii. Etc. I figured Dory is much closer to the Drill in spirit. Their Anime snippet claims they’re rivals. Will they fight? Time will tell (in 24 hrs as of this writing)

Mepis Pheles (メピス・フェレス)

Mepis’ name here comes from the demon Mephistopheles, and indeed, she’s a demon in her Anime snippet. Her name is also another case of a purposeful misspelling, メピス・フェレス (Mepis) rather than メフィストフェレス (Mephis). Also, her Anime snippet involves bodyswapping with a boy, which makes me cautiously optimistic that she’s male pre-transformation. I hope. I pray. Maybe? We only have 2 right now MGRP, please.

Kumi-Kumi (クミクミ)

Kumi-Kumi is a Magical Girl with a pickaxe to grind (chop?). Her anime snippet is my favorite of the bunch. It concerns her finding a sword in the stone, and instead of pulling it, she breaks the stone. Thinking out of the box.

Kana (カナ)

Kana. The enigma. Not sure what to make of her. She’s so dead-eyed, and she has a zombie-like appearance to her. There were human forms posted on twitter and I have a slight idea who she might be based on that.

Classical Lilian (クラシカル・リリアン)

My pick for arc villain (if it’s one of the main cast and not another Keek). Her face, it’s the face. She’s gorgeous though. Look at her. Her Anime snippet even casts her in the role of a Goddess in some pseudo-Isekai plot. She’s got a weather theme going on it looks like. Wonder what her powers will be?

Thunder General Adelheid ( 雷将アーデルハイト)

Where do I start with her? I love her. Her design reminds me half of Jotaro Kujo and half of Raido Kuzunoha. She also has that Imperial aesthetic going on which is always a plus in my book. I look forward to see what she can do (please don’t die chapter 1, at least make it past 4, 5 chapters?).

Narakuno Indiko (奈落野院出ィ子)

...

I hate kanji only names because there’s almost no way to tell without furigana. Case in point, @NyanNyan was written as @娘々, which would be best read as @KoKo. But nooo, it’s NyanNyan. For now though, this is how you would normally spell her name, and is subject to change when I get the book. I’m confident in the first one, Narakuno, since her Anime title katakanas her name to Narakuno. The last one is just the proper normal pronunciation of those kanji for now.

Princess Lightning (プリンセス・ライトニング)

I’ll be honest, I guessed Princess Storm at first (since all the Pure Elements seem to be named after disasters), but Lightning ain’t so bad. Interestingly, her Anime snippet paints her as a sort of dark counterpart to the Pure Elements, and has them start in Episode 15 of the PE’s own Anime series. Whether or not she’ll be opposed to the PEs (or if she’ll meet, say, Deluge), is a question for another time. I’d like to see a full-on Princess fight, though. Her appearance does raise some questions as to who made her, and why.

Sally Raven (サリー・レイヴン)

This... I hope... is a Cutie. Her Anime snippet stars her in Cutie Healer Angelfeather, so it’s a good start, but she’s also still a middle schooler. I wonder if she ends up being one. We do know her real name is Sally Torihara, which marks the first real name reveal right now (at least it should be Torihara, grrr kanji names).

Psyche Plains (プシュケー・プレインス)

Of all the names, I did not expect hers. Psyche Plains is just so out there for a water gun girl. Incidentally, her Anime snippet implies that her powers include changing the liquid inside of her gun. Powerful, if used correctly.

Ran Yui (ランユウィ)

Goldfish girl (These are Japanese goldfish), whose Anime snippet reads like a goldfish version of Unmarked. I am also hoping she is an actual goldfish, but I have no idea if that’s what’ll happen. Her name itself is a weird one. As far as I can tell, it’s literally just a name, like Ran Yuui. It could be a reference, if so I’ll be sure to edit it about later on.

Snow White (スノーホワイト)

Needs no introduction. She’s tired. She’s been through a lot. She lost Fal. An interesting tidbit about her Anime snippet is that she gets a new mascot named Hyoropon. Who is that? I don’t know. Is that canon? I don’t know. BLACK, COME OUT ALREADY!

Well, those are all the main casts of Black and my short opinions on them!

Now here’s hoping Black pulls another proper two-parter (and leads into White for the true Snow White finale).

MGRP: Black Finalized Names

WE SOLVED DEM BIG MYSTERIES!!!!!

I did say that my first names may change, but now I’m going to offer up a final list of names, which, to my best knowledge, is how I chose to translate the name (along with reasoning), and some nice name origin stuff (Because Nicopedia does that to some of the arcs, so I can too).

Calcolo | Comes from Calculate, but also the name of an old Japanese math boardgame (it’s kind of like a tile-matching scrabble for Math. Though I’ve never played it myself.)

Tetty Goodgripp | Comes from ニーギル/Niigiru being a long morph of 握る/にぎる/Nigiru, which means “To grasp, to seize, (and to mold sushi)”. Being that it’s a pun, I decided to keep the pun understandable in English but Englishizing her name to something that keeps the connotation of her power.

Miss Lille | A city in France was named Lille, though that’s just the common transliteration of the word リール, aside from Real, but she doesn’t seem to lean on that transliteration for me.

Wrappy Tip | Not much to say except she’s wrapped around and has tips on those wraps.

Ark Arlie/Drill Dory | ABC girls. Their theming emphasizes a similar first syllable, hence I chose Ark Arlie, and Drill Dory. It’s not the ideal compared to the Japanese Doriru Dorii, but Dory is the best you’ll get in English that matches that Dr sound from Drill.

Mepis Pheles | Comes from a misspelling of the demon Mephistopheles. I said this in a previous post, but her name really is a misspelling of the first part of Mephisto’s name.

Kumi-Kumi | Kumi means connect in Japanese, and roughly relates to her abilities to reassemble things. Also, there are some nice connect-a-block LEGO style toys called Kumi-Kumi in Japan.

Kana | Just a regular old name. (Or is it...?). I have my theories on this name myself, but time will tell if they come true.

Classical Lillian | Her name comes from the Lillian Pattern found in knitting.

Thunder General Adelheid | The most High German sounding name. Adelheid is a European name often given to nobility. You may recognize it more as the, in my opinion, more dainty sounding Adelaide, but Adelheid is clearly using the older German variant, who tended to be used by Queens and Saints.

Diko Narakunoin | Her name is a transliteration of the romaji being applied to her Kanji, another Marika Fukuroi situation. However, 奈落野院 (Narakunoin) roughly means “Hell Person”, and 出ィ子 (Diko) means “Exit Girl”, so roughly, her name translates to “Girl out of Hell.”

Princess Lightning | Nothing much to say, other than I was so totally hoping it’d be Princess Storm.

Sally Raven | A combo of her real name and theme. Fun fact, カラス/Karasu, refers to both ravens, and more commonly, crows. It even extends far enough to Yatagarasu, who was a raven in Japanese mythology, but apparently a crow in Chinese mythology? I’ll need to find the Chinese version of that legend.

Psyche Plains | Psyche is Greek in origin (which MGRP seems to love doing cough Pythie, Lethe cough), and is the name of a woman in Greek mythology whom Cupid fell in love with.

Ranyui | A morph that comes from the goldfish species Ranchu, known as the King of Goldfish in Japan, and most commonly found there as well.

Well, those are the names I’ll be using! Feel free to ask me any questions and whatnot. I am very excited for Black.
