Are you afraid of the Darksoul? [Part 2]
[[OOC: This right here is required reading if you're going to tag. OOC organization is here
For too long the firstborn son of Satan's demonic soul had been trapped, denied his rightful control over Daimon's body. Now, thanks to Mei-Xing, he was finally free. The next course of action was obvious- he would have to take control of one of the beings on this ship. He could start with the vulnerable and move on to the more powerful. He had to act fast before that fool recovered. Fortunately he needn't go very far. The city was full of potential victims.
Now, now. Who to possess first?

Then it vanished, replaced by rage. "Suggesting yourself! Is this the inference you wish, the implication I should understand? That you believe yourself so superior that I should find myself so drawn into magical conflict with you that I would have no time or ability to notice whatever dastardly scheme Kang is cooking up? Another denigration! Another insult! And from you, Celena? That hurts."
At least, for the moment, he had stopped spewing soulfire all about.

Thinking fast, Kang laughed, though his scales clicked a bit to even say it, "But I'm just a sorceror. If I had any real intelligence, I would have become a wizard instead. Do you really think someone like me would be able to come up with a scheme that'd work against you?"
He added, "And, you insult the lady, putting words in her mouth. There are other powerful magic users on the ship; she may have meant one of them."
no subject
"You misunderstand me, I intend no insult to your unparalleled abilities, no, I could not match you in direct conflict, my own skills are far from the superiority of your own," She dipped her head.
"Indeed, there are others aboard this ship, others far more powerful than I, though I have little doubt none are as powerful as yourself, Aibghalien," She continued smoothly as she took a few graceful steps toward him.
"Be ready if things do not go well,"

"The very vitae of divinity flows through me, granting me insight and clarity of thought. Through countless struggle and effort against foes of unimaginable power, I became the wizard I am today! In short... what could possibly compel you to believe this transparent deception had any hope of success?"
Even possessed by the darksoul, Aibghalien still had his cross-class ranks in Sense Motive.
"Is this all the respect I command? Such a paltry effort a child could detect it? I comprehend now that I have underestimated your depths of mutual contempt!"
However, the darksoul had clearly made his tendency to monologue even worse.

Celena padded in a slow circle gracefully around the possessed Aibghalien, "We have no contempt for you, Aibghalien, and indeed I hold you in respect," She spoke softly, sincerely, she told the truth after all, referring to Aibghalien himself not to the spirit possessing him. That spell may come in handy, a slow sigh slipped from her lips as she shook her head.
"It is clear though that you are not feeling yourself today, Aibghalien," She would comment clearly even as a ripple of energy flowed through her markings, near instantly mist seemingly began to form in the streets around them.

He paused, savoring the moment, even as he began to unleash soulfire in swaths to burn off the fog.
"...mist its mark!"

Even despite the soulfire the mist appeared to only grow thicker from his assault of it, the mist being infact not mist at all, but the illusion of mist near indistinguishable from actual mist. Noted, I shall keep him busy
She wasted no time though as she circled him rapidly, markings and even her eyes flaring brighter as copy after copy stepped forth from her form until she seemingly stood in front of him once more, each copy lifelike in near all aspects, even through magic it would be near impossible to determine the true Celena. The mist drifting in until it there was but a circle of clear air around possessed wizard, the fog partially obscuring the illusions as the red glow from each of their respective markings shone through the fog as well as eight pairs of glowing red eyes peered in from the mist.

"I suppose this means dinner is off!" he snapped at the dragon's images as he ringed himself around with soulfire, presenting an unbroken line of flames through which the invisible Kang would have to step.
The second flaw in the darksoul's control came from Aibghalien's inability to simply disbelieve the illusion of mist. Laughing, the wizard instead lifted the trident. "Obviously, victory shall come only through redefinition of the terms of engagement!"
But this was a mistake; as he began to lift into the air, his body lurched, and he swiftly grabbed onto the trident with his other hand for stability. The flight granted by the trident was slower than that he was accustomed to, and the elven body's reflexes had reacted quite wrongly towards the movement.

At the very least, it would give them a few seconds' time.

She and her copies rose an eyeridge as he rose into the air, "A redefinition is welcome, but you fail to realize.." All eight copies crouching low before all eight would spring into the air even as the web shot toward the wizard, the eight dragon's taking up positions on nearby rooftops or even clinging to the side of buildings all peering in at the wizard, "flight is my realm,"
All the mist below dissipated now that he was out of it, and the markings of all eight drew bright as Celena drew up field of energy ready to try and catch the wizard should he break free of the web.
