Hunting Ropos

[Matreya]

Damien grinned against the icey bite of the blizzard, unclipping the final of his holsters, thinking to himself about the posibilities of a good battle. While many in this situation would be in dire troubles, Damien didnt even feel a tingle of fear. With his specialties bearing best in mentalism and uses of the mind, he could easily see without needing his own physical vision, his own Force Shadow being true and tested. Then, being Anzat that consumed the soup of several Force Users, is a powerful Force Walker, and bore all known Czar Enhancemenrs, his overall Force and physical capabilities met near the same.

Unknown to the droids, and any reinforcments, Damien began a known techhnique, gathering energy swiftly, while enduring strenuous activity. Leaping roughly a dozen feet into the air, the Mandalorian drew dual 'Betty' Blasters and shot all three super charged blasts as fast as they could fly. Using enhanced already superior vision, combined with the visual assistors of his HUD, each shot was beyond the normal accuracy of a combatant, and each went for the eyes or face of both his new opponents.

There was a problem with using mentalism and Force Sense against the droids. For one, they had no minds, they couldn't be mind tricked, they couldn't be affected by mentalism powers, they couldn't be sensed through mentalism powers, for how can you sense a mind if there is no mind there? Their minds instead of were based on electronic components, programming, making them vulnerable to electric attacks instead.

Two, even when using Force Sense against droids it was more difficult to sense them than organics because they just kind of blurred with the ground. After all they were made from metal, dead material like the rocks, walls, or soil, they did not stood out against them like organics did but were camouflaged in the Force, although not dead in it like the Vong were, droids could still be detected via Force, although as I explained it was more difficult.

Damien was a capable Knight but he was not a Master, still the middle-rank Knight.


Going back to the fight, the droids' photoreceptors followed Damian as he jumped up, the shots he fired met with a buzz as the droids activated their blue-bladed lightsaber, swatting or dissipating the shots aside into the snow as in quick reflexes they had their own pistols aiming down their target, the SP-1 shatterpistol rip-offs, triggers already pulled wasting no time as state-of-the-art tracking and calculation units of the droids had the trajectory marked and corrected in no time.

Now, these shatterpistols, they were more or less a silent weapon with no recoil, superior firepower making it a very impressive sniping weapon, especially in the hands of advanced droids, tiny projectiles, but extremely low rate of fire, so Daemos was facing down only two bullets this time, very small bullets, pellets actually. But pellets traveling at hyper speed, many times the speed of sound. The only reason these pistols were silent was due to sound dampening systems installed in their barrels, that prevented the railguns from being damaged by the shockwave created when their pellets broke the sound barrier inside the barrel. These pellets traveled so fast, that although they were tiny in comparison to other projectiles, like plasma bolts, they had enough kick to dent phrik armor. Phrik, which survived destruction of Alderaan with little scratches, was dented by pistols utilizing this technology.

While the bullets did make sound while they flew they actually hit their target before the sound of them flying towards the target would reach the said target. So, Daemos had two high-speed tiny projectiles with plenty of damage to dodge as a Knight-rank user from beings which are harder to sense through the Force and which utilized advanced calculators and sensors to wield the weapon with deadly efficiency, just few minutes earlier one of these droids (well one of their model) used this pistol to blow a man's kneecap clean off in one shot while being separated by a raging curtain of snowy blizzard, with little visual confirmation and the winds constantly affecting the trajectory of the bullet. By the time Daemos would even register that the triggers were pulled the bullets would already travel the distance they need to get to him, but don't necessarily hit him, miracles do happen from time to time.

One shot was aimed at his torso, biggest area, and the other simultaneous shot was aimed at his pelvic area, to shatter his hips, both shots did not necessarily had to be lethal.


As the whirr of engines broke through the blizzard, HK appeared in his full armor and garments, his face hidden behind the helmet other droids wore, however, his armor was grey as opposed to the white-colored armor of other units. However other sounds of engines would soon be heard, more reinforcements were coming.

HK took out his own shatterpistol, an older model weaker that the SP-1 as he looked upon Daemos' own troops, he sent out a quick transmission aimed towards his flagship the Siege Tower, he had to get to the planet somehow after all, of course he brought his ship along with him. And that usually meant Iron Company forces.

(LMAO FAIIIIL. Play it like this was posted as Daemos lmao.)

That was the thing about Force Shadows, one didnt need anything to focus on - save for a place. It was a literal manifestation of ones own senses moved to a seperate place, without their own physical being. The lead issue in using this again resided in its radial abilities, but to remedy that, he simply had to swiftly jump from location to location.

As well, Damien was an ancient and a Knight for well over a dozen years (1 year OOC already), trained by Emperor Voracitos and many others, so was not to simply be out into the same category as the rest.

Watching as the sabers were drawn by the droids, and his shots deflected, Damien was already altering his course with the use of the Force. Touching its might, he pushed himself lower towards the ground - at the same instance the shots were fired and thus avoided them.

When his feet touched snow, Damien shifted his attentions from gathering energy from the Force, and rather to gathering from the whole - including his Spirit allies. Filling his body quickly was the warmth and flow of power. He would need it as already his senses warned of incoming dangers.

Pausing his influx, he smiled inside his helmet for a brief second, thinking to himself about how better to test his recently found allies' loyalty...

AYRA!!!!!!, Damien roared out into the Force, a shout that would likely find its way to the Sith Lord and hopefully bring her soon. Who knew how many more reinforcements would arrive?

Returning his mind to the present he hurled the Cloak of Nuun ahead of himself, wadded in a ball, while simultaneously creating a billowing wall of fresh snow thanks to a Force Push. Charging like previously, at speeds unheard of by humans, he shot into the snow where he managed to run clear into the protective covering of its biots.

Having been tested against numerous sensors in the past he was sure it would hold, as well, hidden under a massive frosty wall as he was heat sensors wouldnt help much either. Thus when he finally had closed the distance, and stood between the guards, the Cloak fell to the side to reveal Damien standing with both Betty's aimed at where his Shadow had spotted their heads.
