Candace looked with confusion at the two Blues, then seeing her start to become suspicious, walked up to the closest one. "Why do this... Copying... Separation... Thing?

"I can read minds." Blue stated bluntly. "Because it confuses people." she said to Candace. "Now, could you tell Red to stop, or do I need to do it myself?"

The real Blue was not in the room. The portal looked like a fog gate however, seemingly you could walk through, too. So it was most likely that the real Blue stood on the other side.

"Now that's just cheating."

After Blue gave her final sentence, Shana responded.
"Nah, I think I'm going to let Dala do her thing."
Shana wouldn't think it was wise to step through the portal when there's this much uncertainty.

She drew the short sword Dalahar gave her and put up a defensive stance.

"You could ask nicely ..." Blue asserted. "But seems like you don't want to."

Manipulation - Fight

Both Blues stood next to the portal, around their hands formed water. The right one shot a small tendril, meant to hit Shana's sword, towards her.

Shana pivoted on one foot to evade the incoming attack. Now that she was facing the tendril going past her, she powered the sword and slashed downwards at it.

If Blue attempted to read Raz's mind, she would find herself blocked by incredible mental defenses.

Raz put a hand to his head and fired a laser blast at the illusion attempting to hit Shana.

Yauna raised a hand and let out a short incantation, attempting to dispel the magic creating one of the illusory Blues.

Shana slashing through the tendril would sever it, letting the end splash down on the ground. It extended, however, again.

As Blue had not read Shana's mind, and lied about it, Raz block was not yet necessary.

Hit by a bullet and a laser, and being dispelled, the one Blue stood no chance, and dissolved in a splash of water.

The other Blue lauged. She atempted to hit Shana's and Yaunas legs, wanting to bring them down.

The fog cleared, and through the portal walked a stone golem, about 2,50m big, two heavily armoured soldiers, and behind them, two humans in robes. One of them had fire in his hand, the other one ice.

Behind all of them, the real Blue stood, smiling, and casting a spell.

Candace saw another Blue stepping through the portal, along with her escorts. Panicking a bit at the sight of the golem, she shot at it reflexively.

Lambda, having tagged along but not wanting to get involved in the fighting directly, instead created a gravity vortex on the ground near the portal, making everyone that came out of the portal feel slower and heavier as long as they were standing on it.

The tendril tripped Shana and made her fumble as she tried to run away from it. But she was able to perform a forward roll to get herself back into position.

Shana tried to consider a fusion burst considering the large cluster of people that arrived through the portal. As the first Blue clone dissolved and she was out of the way of the second one's tendril she felt that she could concentrate on firing a burst at the golem. It was the largest target, also it was made of rock, which she knew she could break away with a burst. The sword was put away.

She brought her sleeves together but apart by 2 cm. The sleeves became rigid cones. There was a large BANG as the white-blue plasma formed between the hands, which looked like they were praying. With a second BANG, the burst was fired at the golem. If it hit, there would most likely be a crater about 16 cm across, or at least deliver a large amount of heat to melt it.

Yauna avoided the strike by levitating up into the air, so that even if the tendril hit it couldn't knock her down. When the new creatures arrived, Yauna began chanting again while floating over to them, and caused black tentacles to burst out of her body in a sphere. They would begin battering at the creatures, causing necrotic wounds. The effects of the spell could be lessened by physical strength, meaning the golem would almost certainly be affected the least.

As the group of foes entered the area Raz threw a confusion grenade at them. If successful, those affected would see each other as Raz for a short time.

Candace's shot did nothing against the golems. It was however affected by Lambda's gravity vortex, as well as the two soldiers. The two mages stood behind it for now, as well as Blue.

Shana's shot did put a hole in the golem, destabilising it slightly, but otherwise not affecting it.

The golem was not affected at all by Yauna's spell, not even slightly. The two soldiers were affected a bit, they had a lot of physical strength however, so they were still standing. They started slashing at cutting the tendrils. The two mages both tried to block the tendrils with blue magic shields - they defended, but could not attack at the same time.

Blue finished casting, and suddenly, in the portal room, 9 more water-based illusions appeared - and a lot more merely visual and auditory illusions, all around the fighting party and even beyond the portal. These hid the 'real' illusions quite well, could however be seen through, either by spells, or by noticing that they did affect nothing.

Raz grenade confused the soldiers, and they did not attack for now. The golem was not affected, as well as the mages, who stood behind and had magic shields.

The magical shields would be able to block some of the damage but the tentacles would still hit the mages a few times. Cutting at them would do little, since they were partially magical in nature and as such could simply be replaced by more eldritch energy. After inflicting some wounds, however, the dark tendrils vanished from existence.

Yauna then floated away from the mages, soldiers and golem as she began another incantation. One of the soldiers would feel dark whispers within his mind, coercing him down a path of madness. Unless his willpower was enough to shrug off the spell's effect, he would perceive Yauna as his new master and be compelled to cut the throat of his fellow soldier. Additionally, a jagged metal crown would appear on his head.
If he did resist the enchantment, however, he would suffer no lasting effects other than possibly being very creeped out.

Raz started firing lasers at the Golem, while calling out to his companions which illusions were what and which ones didn't seem to be doing anything.

Lambda kept focusing on the gravity field, trying to intensify it to bring the golem down.

Candace moved to the nearest Blue, stabbing her in the chest with a lunging thrust.

The soldier was affected by the madness-spell, and tried to attack the other soldier. This one tried to defend himself, raising his shield and attempting to knock off the crown with his sword.

The golem seemed not be affected very much by the lasers, but it was very much slowed down. It tried to hit the nearest person, which was Candace, it was however, extremely slow in its movement.

Candace's stabbing did leave a hole, and it felt like poking water, otherwise it did nothing.
The other 9 illusionary Blue's got water around their hands, then connected them - to get quite a big rope of water, to constrict the persons fighting.

The real Blue held up her arms, then brought them down. Unless she had magic protection, Yauna would be forced back on the ground, painfully, her blood being controlled.

Yauna was pulled down, letting out a cry of pain. Her focus broken, the crown vanished from the soldier's head and his sanity returned. In response, Yauna made a rapid hand motion and sent a thick blast of golden energy hurtling at the true Blue. As it moved, the blast split into four smaller beams to maximise the amount of area on Blue's body the arcane force would hit.
