I begin my search for Nechronos by first hunting down Takashi's killer, and it doesn't take long to find my little clone, holed up in a warehouse yet. I decide to handle this old school and begin making my way through the vents. Fortunately for me this warehouse doesn't house anything sensitive so they don't have any sensors in their ventilation shafts. I don't make a sound and it impressed even me how silent I have become. My new powers grant me a level of stealth I have never known before, I mean it's one thing to not make a noise come from you, but no noise comes from anything I touch this means even if I rolled around in these vents nobody would hear the metal buckle. It's creepy actually but as an assassin, dear gods it's frightening. I spot my quarry below me about 30 feet down and he's discussing his report with an Hadean underling who I let leave without incident...no sense killing when I don't have to. I slowly descend upside down on a single strand of webbing, it doesn't creak like rope or cable and numb nuts doesn't suspect a thing. I am taken bu surprise when he speaks, seriously.
"Come to finish me off?"
He says as he turns to face me. I'm dying to know how he knew I was there but I play it off like it's nothing.
"Word is you did Takashi."
"I did. He was interfering with Nechronos' plans so i was ordered to pay him off or dispose of him. He wouldn't accept the money so..."
"So he basically signed his own death warrant."
"Exactly. I'm surprised you're here, I know you didn't care for him..he was so very pushy."
"Don't get it twisted cloneboy, I'm not here for vengance, I'm here for answers. I want to know what Nechronos is planning and where he's hiding."
"I don't have those answers and if I did I'm certain he would compel me to keep them secret."
He draws his sword, to my utter disbelief. The last time we met I spared him, and gave him his free will.
"I grant you your freedom and this is what you do with it? You do know I'll not be so forgiving this time right?"
"What are you talking about? Until now we have never met. Ah you must be talking about 7, he was...disposed of as well...In truth none of us wanted to do it but that damned compulsion."
"I could free you like I did him. We could use your help and two of me would be incredibly formidable."
"The master has thought of that...he has an eternity crystal...and none of us will be free so long as he lives!"
With that, the moron lunges with his sword, presumably to catch me off guard. I repay his stupidity with a well place fist upside his forehead which sends him flying across the length of the building stopping only when his body meets the reinforced walls. With a flick of my wrists I secure the exits with a powerful webbing that would be difficult for me to cut. He begins to visibly panic scanning the room quickly for an alternate means of escape. There isn't any and he knows it, now he'll fight like the caged animal I just turned him into.
He assumes the standard Djinok ninja fighting stance, and I laugh.
"That's not going to work you know?"
"I'm compelled to do whatever is necessary to complete my mission or die in the attempt. I can't let you stop me."
He lunges for me again but this time I head butt him sending him reeling from the impact. he swings his blade even more fiercely again and again locking swords with me in this form is practically an exercise in stupidity and tantamount to suicide, I catch his arm under mine pinning him. With the tip of my blade at this throat, I ask him just one question.
"Give me one good reason not to shove this blade straight through your skull."
"One huh? How about this: I hate Nechronos as much as you do."
"What?"
The answer is really good and I ease my grip...just a little.
"Say that again?"
"We all hate him. We're you...we remember everything you do. We know he caused 7 to kill Moonshadow...and there's nothing we can do about it. We have to obey him...but..."
"But what?"
"We are somewhat rebellious, we can act outside his orders or twist them..when he's not careful we can do a lot of damage to his plans."
"What do you mean?"
"If for instance he tells me to kill someone I can choose when so long as he doesn't specify. Right now in this situation, I can negotiate my way out if I deem it necessary."
"Because you're compelled to do WHATEVER is necessary to complete your mission."
"Precisely. We are compelled to obey him, but..."
"But what?"
"If he were no longer in a position to give orders, like say if he were stone dead. Then we would all be free."
"You keep saying we, and all, exactly how many of me are there?"
"In total thirty seven were created. Thus far twelve have been sacrificed for whatever this plan of his is."
"Holy shit!!! All that from n arm?"
"There's more. Five of us have your technology and armor."
"Fantastic! Well at least I know how to dispose of them if I need to. How did they get hold of my technology though? I mean that is a lot of Absorbium-80 to make 5 suits, we usually recycle ours."
"Nechronos has a man inside the Black Mantis's ranks who has been funneling resources to him. I don't know how he contacts him or any details but I have overheard him speaking to someone he calls Shadowmaster."
"Okay so lets assume I believe all of this...what exactly are you proposing?"
"Nechronos never once told us to be loyal, he told us to obey, and we do. If you promise to kill him and set us all free I'll deliver information to you that will help you stop him...think of me as a mole. If he finds out though he'll wise up and correct the situation. In which case you'll be screwed."
"If that happens i may have no choice but to kill all of you."
"It's a risk we're willing to take, for her. No matter what though, you make that sonofabitch pay for Moonshadow."
"I'm going to risk this, just this once, I know you're not lying, but if you go back on this agreement of your own free will..."
"I know the consequences."
I release his arm and he walks over to a nearby computer. He taps a few buttons and waves me over.
"Take this."
To my surprise he holds up a data storage chip. Then adds.
"This is a copy of the information I was sent here to get. I was ordered to destroy it when i was done recovering it but he never said I couldn't make a copy for you before i recovered the data. Like I said...We all hate him."
With a wave of my hand the webbing sealing the exits dissipates and he the clone nods.
"Just one last thing Obsidian."
"What's that?"
"You're gonna have to do some damage..or he'll never believe a word i tell him and he'll make me tell him the truth so if you want to this chip you're gonna have to pry it out of my fingers."
The words no sooner escape his mouth when I send him crashing into another wall with a single blow. I take the chip from his unconscious body and check to make sure there's no permanent damage and take my leave. Dissension in the ranks? I'm actually flattered that even a clone of me would still find a way to be as much me as they could. Not sure what'll happen if they all gain their freedom, but I'm pretty sure it's gonna cost me some contracts.

| Mage Duel
Obsidian 2014/7/8 20:50

Mage duels are neither common nor legal, they tend to be somewhat destructive and cause extreme collateral damage. Mages who wish to duel can get special permits for non-lethal dueling only which does not cause collateral damage to living creatures or inanimate objects. There are certain rituals involved in dueling (in fact the act of initiating a duel is much like casting a spell except that it requires more than one spellcaster) which must be observed by the challenger and his opponent, and all participants must have a dueling wand. |

My most ambitious project to date 9 count em 9 Genesis models in one shot (Okay for me that's a lot) and I present to you....The Scions of Justice. From left to right : Batmaster, Thunderbolt, Silver Beetle (the 4th), Spydra, Panterra (front Center), Cerebron (Front Rear), Scarlet Bow, The Black Scarab, Obsidian Mask, and lastly Infinity Man. This shot took less than 30 minutes to render and I am very proud of it. Furthermore there is very little post work in this image...mostly at the feet where the models didn't quite touch the floor. I would love to hear what you think of my team. |

| A day at the beach
Obsidian 2017/4/22 17:48
1770 1
The Ferusian continent of Galeria has some beautiful coastlines and I had long ago taken it upon myself to build a vacation home far from the palace that I lived in during my tenure as High Justiciar. The place isn't as grandiose as the palace but then again that's not my style. Built into a cliff about 100 feet above the beach in a little cove it is the perfect place to get away from it all. My wives and I along along with Aini, take the next few weeks to get some sun and frolic in the waves like children. I enjoy snorkeling so we also spend a great deal of time checking out the nearby reefs. The sea creatures of Ferusi are something to behold, both exotic and beautiful to behold most of the eas life is quite colorful. I have given my crew paid furlow and basically run of the place and so they've scattered to the four winds. Normally someone like Shadawar would be a rare sight but since the Sathari occupation of the planet there have a been a few positive changes the presence of aliens being one of those. it's a gorgeous day for swimming and and I am just getting ready to take the boat out to the reef when I hear a someone yelling from above on the cliff. I can easily magnify my vision with my cybernetics and what I see is a buzz killer. A Sathari officer, what could he possibly want? If Analaeus wanted me he has a direct line. That being said this seems like personal business invading my personal life. The gentleman makes his way down to the beach where the girls and I are and marches towards me. The entire time I can't help noting how out of place he looks on a hot summer day in full dress uniform on this sandy beach. As he approaches, he says something that gets my full attention...he says my name.
He salutes like a pro and says:
"Indor Rusquion Tura, I have been sent by his majesty the Emperor Analaeus Sathari to secure your cooperation in a very delicate matter."
Indor is a title given to high ranking former officials by the Sathari government. It's a title I appreciate but few people use my actual name. It's so rare sometimes I forget I have a name other than Obsidian. Handing me an official "sealed" document which opens only upon confirmation of my DNA (LIke my clone couldn't have opened it) I am stunned to discover that it contains only a set of coordinates with no instructions. I'm guessing the vacation is over.
Analaeus is a friend and I don't let my friends down when they need me. I'm sure there is a good reason for all the secrecy.
"Okay, um what's your name?"
"High Cano, Vel Revv sir. I am commander of the Fekthir. According to my orders my ship and my crew are at your disposal. We will take you wherever you need to go."
"I have my own ship, thanks."
"I know sir, it is currently in my ship's docking bay ready to go when you are."
"Damn your ship must be huge."
My ship is easily the size of a small cruiser the Sathari really go overboard with their designs.
"My ship is the largest in fleet. We have been ordered to remain at your call at all times. These orders come from the Emperor himself. This mission is of the highest secrecy. Even High Justiciar Harley has not been informed."
Okay now I'm worried, it's not normal to bypass the chain of command. The girls and I pack up and I send the all hands on deck signal and end several vacations at once.
"It'll take a a full day to reassemble me crew, I'll sinal when we are ready."
"Very good sir, we'll await your call."
he heads to his shuttle atop the cliff and I suit up. I ask the ladies to remain planetside for this one...I've held enough memorials for a while I haven't the stomach to lose more family. Whatever this is about it won't be fun and games.

I get a call from an old friend, like me he was trained by the Oni, but was not born Oni. A Solaran by the name of Saito Nakamura. He is a high ranking member of the ninja clan that trained me. I know why he wants to see me, it's because I broke ties, and now they want to let me know what the deal it now that I'm not part of the clan anymore...seems word of my fall form grace has gotten around. No doubt there's gonna be some payback for my threats...and vulgar display of power...but they don't know I am a Scion. Saito wants to meet on the planet Dagus 4 a hard hit world during the Millennium Wars abandoned by settlers after the Stakahn poisoned the entire planet's water making it uninhabitable. Saito asks me to meet him in and old shopping district away from prying eyes and in a place where he can basically ambush me. Normally i would agree to meet in the open but I'm not frightened of mortals at this point and they have no idea of what I am now capable of. As I approach my scanners pick up no less than 17 additional life signatures besides me and Saito...yeah those numbers won't help them.
In the center of an old dilapidated shopping mall Saito stands...no mask, but armed to the teeth. The mask is a sign of respect, it also shows that you're not afraid. Well that's nice but I'm not taking a bullet between the eyes for anyone.
"Obsidian san Hajimemashite."
"Mae-govannen Saito"
"I believe you know why we are having this meeting."
"The clan wants to tell me to come back or else?"
"Something like that. You know many of our secrets and as an outsider your actions are of special interest to the clan. They are concerned about your leaving and possibly bringing the clan great shame, embarrassment, and undue attention."
"Did you actually say the word 'embarrassment'? First of all I am highly skiled, and I have never let anyone know what clan trained me, and lastly I am NOT the guy who brought 17 men."
"Fair enough but you know, that honor must be satisfied? You were very disrespectful to our leader, and she didn't take it very well, she believes an act of apology is necessary."
"Did she mention at the time that I was a god? As such I simply put her in her place. Now I see though she wants to return the favor and put me in mine?"
"Again, something like that. She wishes you to perform and act of humility to demonstrate your loyalty to the clan."
I reach into a compartment and pull out a note, carved in pure infinitium. At the top it has symbol, and for as far back as I can remember it has been a symbol of fear, no, terror for my clan. It wasn't until i was in the company of the one who this symbol belonged to that I understood why the symbol was something of such great dread. The symbol of the Black Mantis to those who know it is a thing of absolute fear...his power is legendary and his empire is known to but a few but to those few he is like a force of destruction unparalleled in the annals of anyone's history. The gods themselves fear him..and now as the look on Saito's face turns from serious to horrified, I explain what the situation really is.
"Take this to your Jonin, tell her, that as of this day I operate under this banner, and that as the betrothed of the eldest of the Black Mantis's house I am no longer bound by the decrees and loyalties of the clan. I will respect our clan's secrecy and I shall not bring any dishonor to the clan name. However, if one of you idiots ever challenges me again, I will bring the full might of the Black Mantis clan down on your heads and destroy you to the last man. Is that understood?" As I ask I look to where each of my former brothers believes themselves to be hiding. Saito places his mask back on, and I nod giving them their leave. For just a moment I thought I was going to have to nuke the place to make a statement, but Moonshadow's plan was better than mine. I must remember to thank her properly when I get home.. |

Jennifer Brooks was supposed to be one of a set of triplets, when a energy-matter transporter accident interacted with her Genetic Aberration as an instinctive fail safe the three fetuses merged into one. This fact was unknown to doctors who were dumbfounded. All of the experts consulted said that the missing two fetuses were simply gone...they were mistaken. Later it was believed that Jennifer suffered from schizophrenia, and when examined by doctors at the young age of 13 it was discovered that her brainwaves were erratic, not because she was mentally ill but because she had 3 separate minds intertwined into one. The merged minds of the three form a fourth separate being, this is Jennifer. Jennifer has no extraordinary powers skills or abilities. When separate the three personalities are known as (Mystria, Whylma, and Amethyst) each with it's own powers and skills and all aware of the other. It wasn't until the day of her prom when her date tried to "Go too far" that she learned the three personalities could personify and materialize into three separate beings. Artemis ( Whylma) the Warrior, Vex (Mystria) The Mage and Korona (Amethyst) The Psionic, unfortunately for the young boy he met primarily with Artemis who beat him almost to death. Each one of the personalities has her own mind and her own will ,dreams, and desires, and each one represents an aspect of Jennifer's own personality as well. So what keeps them together? If they should move farther than a mile from each other they will each grow weak, the extent of this weakness is suspected to go so far as death but this is not known and they refuse to test it for obvious reasons. They also cannot remain separated for longer than 48 hours without the same sickness which will again affect all of them. Jennifer herself is quite weak and so to protect her the three girls employed the services of a combat drone. Pretty, pink, cute, and armed to the teeth Malibu Bambi (aka the A-46 combat drone) has an advance self aware AI who looks after Jennifer like a kid sister...and boys beware she is very suspicious of men. Unless necessary or at Jennifer's behest Bambi will not engage in combat not involving the immediate safety of Jennifer. Bambi's personality matrix is one of the most advanced in operation, despite the fact the she has been obsolete for over a year now having been replaced by the now more popular A-47 combat drone. Together the three girls are known as Triple Threat though few if any are aware of the girls' true nature. |

Her command over the Undead is absolute.
I have posted several images using iray, but this is the first to render to a complete 100%
It is worth noting that this was done on a system that is pushing 8 years, in a 673 x 621 resolution, Only the character, clothing, hair, and 3 lights. This took my system around 26 hours to render. The results are worth the wait for me. So if anyone is thinking of working with iray, here are results of my own work. |

Sam Savage and Blackjack are the only hope for the violent streets of New York, Chicago and Detroit [yeah I know it said Harlem]. They bring their own urban brand of justice to the forefront and pull no punches. Action packed from cover to cover, this is one where I really cut loose. look for guest appearances by Sheba, NightCat and DA Darkness in coming issues. |

The SS Lillun is a privately owned vessel and one of the most advanced (and magically enchanted) within the 5 galaxies. The ship currently serves the interests of the now benevolent Sathari Empire with Obsidian as High Justiciar, and his friends each serving as Chancellors. They're second only to the emperor himself positions awarded by the Emperor for freeing his people and demonstrating their leadership abilities and courage for an empire that was not their own. |

| Unicorn Comics Assassin Wars Rd 3 - Bloodbath vs Cutter

Castle Necrom, Transylvania - Up until now Cutter had been lucky in his matchups. He easily out muscled Edge in round 1, and Venegeance could not match his skill level in round 2. Oh, and they both were human! Now for the first time he faces a foe with powers...powers of the undead yet! Cutter knew his only chance was to strike before his foe awoke..so he quickly flew to Bloodbath's crypt to catch the creature unawares. Too bad he didn't count for the time difference in Europe. He knows he's late and really begins to worry when he opens the crypt and finds it empty. Or is it? Seems like he forgot about a vampire's ability to turn to mist. Can anyone say sneak attack fail? |
