Sweet Triumphs

[HEADING=1]INJUSTICE LEAGUE[br]EVENT![br][small]-Glorious Triumphs!-[/small][/HEADING]​

TL;DR At the bottom

Escapists! Some of you may have noticed that recently I have returned to the world of the living.

Or not, I can't be arsed keeping track of how internet famous or (more likely) not internet famous I am. I'm that one guy that founded that one evil league thing and makes the hit and miss jokes especially about fedoras.

Anyway, What I am about to recount is all the Truth[sup]TM[/sup] and I swear that if any of it is inaccurate, I will eat my taco.

Upon the 1st of April, I voluntarily left [footnote]for a joke plus was busy with life >.>[/footnote] to venture deep into the basement of the Escapist. Dark terrors lurk there, members who were long ago thrown into the abyss, bots and spammers, and even the odd vampire. Only the powers above (Mods be praised. Tito is love and life) keep them at bay.

Even deeper, in what I call the sub basement, lurks a being more malevolent[footnote]or so I would say if such petty human concepts could be applied to it[/footnote] than all of those horrors. It is a being of many names, Azathoth, Yog Sothoth, and Kross among them, and its presence could be felt through-out the whole basement. It was ultimately this entity that convinced me to give up my thirst for knowledge of the beyond and return to the light of day.

I fear I will meet this creature again when he decides to rise from the abyss and show his terrible visage, but I take solace in knowing that that day is not today.

The point of this thread however, is not, as it may seem, to bring to you news of the beyond. I will take that knowledge to the grave for the sake of you all. What I'm here for is to bring you news of treachery and triumph.

After I fought my way out of the basement back to the forums, I found that an entire month had passed since my departure. My home, the Injustice League, had been ransacked and looted by my previously loyal Generals. They had "overthrown" me and attempted to each take power for themselves. Captain of the Henchmen Jojo and Chief Inquisitor T0ad 0f Truth were locked in a civil war with Jojo slightly ahead. He had the audacity to sit in MY THRONE and wear MY TIARA CROWN!


What followed was a deadly three-way battle between me, JoJo and T0ad, each battling for the leadership. My two rebellious admins feasted upon me many times and set their lieutenants, Barbas and Imp, upon me, but they were never able to eat enough.

T0ad fought as you would expect an amphibian like a coward with dirty tactics and toxins while JoJo the bigger coward set his henchmen upon me, having long ago traded his Big Daddy suit for a puny human body stolen from an orphan.

Eventually, after a day of conflict that scarred the very ground it took place on, T0ad was beaten into submission and I ripped JoJo's head from his body , flinging it into molten lava[footnote]Apparently he had a clone or something, I don't know, make up an excuse for why he's alive[/footnote]

The battle was won, and all knelt before me praising my name.


TL;DR So yeah, I'm back for those of you who noticed I was gone, and I like writing roleplaying stories about sweet victory.

What triumphs have you had in your life? Beat a hard boss? Ace a test? Comments, Concerns, Love, or Hate for the story or IL are also acceptable topics.

I would have gotten away with it too, if weren't for you meddling kids and your dog double treachery at the hands of my lieutenent Imp! *shakes fist*

[sub][sub] You guys and your elaborate pranks. You know what I did for april fool's? Tricked my sister with a fake news story![/sub][/sub]

OT: Well I beat the collector ship in ME2 on insanity as a soldier. Do you know how stupid that level is? Ugh God. >.<

It was hard man! I was pretty proud when I beat it though. Felt good.

Now to try and beat it as an adept and proclaim myself god of video games.

I did pretty well in Dragon Age: Origins on higher difficulty after following a handy guide someone had written and building up the strengths of my party. There was a real sense of satisfaction, of cohesion...right up until the Deep Roads. All the battles and bosses I overcame before that point left me feeling uplifted instead of drained.

 

[The White Hunter]

Frankly I was just waiting until they had weakened each other enough that I could one shot them and seize power. But alas.

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

You guys are the reason why I built a bunker. Bah to your factions I say. BAH!

 

[Drummodino]

I sold tickets for the Battle for The League[footnote]Yep, I've dubbed it thus.[/footnote] in your absence Taco, and made a pretty penny. Toad said we could get some cool attack dog/monster things from Metroid if I did!

Snip

Any news on those? I want one :3

On the topic of triumphs, well I managed to beat the Sentinels in Dark Souls 2 recently. That was a frustrating boss fight, making your bosses more difficult just by having to fight three at once is not good design From! Felt good when I finally beat them though, even if I did summon two companions to help.

I also killed my first invader! That was awesome.

 

[PoolCleaningRobot]

I, for one, welcome the return of our glorious leader Taco [small] even though I don't really participate in Injustice League very often and knew nothing of your absence[/small]

In terms of sweet victories, I've only got 4 days left before I'm done with my degree. In the last few days, I've almost finished my senior research and corresponding paper and formal presentation. Now I've only got a few small assignments and an exam left. The end is finally in sight.

Unless I wind up going to grad school, in which the battle begins again

Frankly I was just waiting until they had weakened each other enough that I could one shot them and seize power. But alas.

I wondered why you weren't part of the battle. I wouldn't expect anything less from a clever fiend like you

 

[Colour Scientist]

You guys are the reason why I built a bunker. Bah to your factions I say. BAH!

I want to be a part of the bunker.


[sub][sub]Then we can create a bunker faction, called BNK3R.[/sub][/sub]

 

[Tireseas_v1legacy]

Beating the flying carrier level on Ace Combat 6.

Beating White Glint in Armored Core 4A (For Answer).

Breaking[footnote]Not wiping, breaking their souls.[/footnote] my first tabletop group in a goddamn side mission.

 

[Imperioratorex Caprae]

I have a saying: "Never assume they're dead until you've tossed their corpse in an acid pool." And I laughed as the "coup" took place (the Henchgoats threw confetti). Next time, make sure whoever you're replacing can't come back for you later. Oh and ensure their family line is definitively ended, so none may rise against you in vengeance.
Still it was fun to watch them all line up like dominoes.
All hail Taco!

 

[JoJo]

Alas, my reign was glorious but as fleeting as the lives of the kittens I sacrificed to the old gods to allow the fuhrership to pass into my hands in the first place. RE: survival, I did indeed have a clone stored somewhere and the White Hunter rescued my brain from the molten lava, allowing it to be re-implanted in the clone. Wonders of science eh? ;-)

That's what you think... Taco's got plans for you Skar and Knifer that are less... Public

Run Tizzy!

[sub][sub]Then we can create a bunker faction, called BNK3R.[/sub][/sub]

But then another bunker would just rise up against you!

Have we learned nothing from Blood Gulch? So many lives lost *shakes head*

And I swear to god Banshees on that level are bullshit

Frankly I was just waiting until they had weakened each other enough that I could one shot them and seize power. But alas.

I wondered where you were. You usually Garp your way through the wall whenever opportunity presents itself

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

[sub][sub]Then we can create a bunker faction, called BNK3R.[/sub][/sub]

We are a neutral bunker. We take all in who seek shelter and banish those who would bring war and subterfuge to our hallowed underground halls. NO FACTION!

[sub]If you can find the bunker, you are more than welcome to join us in preparation for whatever.[/sub]

My newfound Logia hax give me an alternative and more insidious approach you see.

Though I would have prefered to punch the door in and just beat you all down for justice.

Yes yes, my magnificence knows no bounds!

Justice? D:

What kind of IL admin are you?

Also, Ha! You had to basically eat a poo-vomit-piss flavored fruit to get those hax. Worth it?

I doused the devil fruit in jerk hot sauce made with a few carolina reapers, that way I didn't taste it at all, just delicious fire.

Totally worth it for the hax.
