Noel POV
One hour of shenanigans and tomfoolery later.
I am covered in magic worm goo and worm ash
But I have done it, and almost nothing changed only once I go through my, holy Instrument, my SPELLBOOK am I capable of actually casting something, time to practice those handshakes, and pronunciations.
Now what level am I....24
Ascension starts at 20, ok that are 17 levels, let's make 13 of those wizard, and the rest fighter or cleric, anyway spells first and foremost,
4th level spells Polymorph and Sickening radiance,
5th level Modify Memory, Wall of Force, Telekinesis and Permanency,
6th level Contingency, Planar Binding Greater, Disintegrate, Geas,
7th level Plane Shift, Greater Teleportation, Limited Wish, Etherealness,
8th level Demiplane, Create Greater Undead, Dominate Monster, Mind Blank,
9th level Wish, Gate, Shapechange, True Polymorph, Time Stop, Ice Assasin, Freedom, Genesis , still have to actually study them and I could only remember half of them anyway without forgetting some of them.
HP pool 17 times 1d10 equals
6 + 2 + 1 + 4 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 6 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 6 + 2 + 4 = 59,now the con modifier 5times 17 85.
There is some comment to be made when ones modifier is only half of your potential HP pool and it still is almost one third more just by being consistent, blessed be the first roll for stats. Now 2 fighter levels 1d10 each 2+1=3 (con plus 10) oh god I will never roll high again will I?
Gaining Second Wind limited healing at a chosen point of time, and Action surge a second action on ones turn only usable once, and the fighting style defensive. Lots of proficiency's, making weapons actually viable, as well as saving throws in constitution and strength.
Sorcerer or cleric, no better yet warlock, with me as giver and receiver, which could work forgoing the page inside of me. Yes the right shakes the left and may my loom of reality consider it done, last Psionic, let's roll the hit points 7+4 plus 10, all in all I now have 245 Hit points.
Feats god dam it the had to be selected, and stat increases had to be given, oh well it is good even if bothersome for the thousands of options burdened even him.
"1 Feats are open, considering its all editions and different systems fused and some options are one third of others, not even surprising, let's go"
Alert, never be surprised while conscious, +5 to inititative, others don't gain advantage fromno one perceiving them. Quicken Spell, Craft Magic Arms and Armor, Craft Wondrous Item, Craft Construct, Mobile Spellcasting, Battle Caster, Persistent Spell, Twin Spell, Practiced Spellcaster, Spell Focus (necromancy), Make your own luck, Healer's luck, Dumb Luck, Invisible Spell, Nonverbal Spell, Closed Mind, Corpse crafter, Improved spell Capacity (Epic), Epic Spellcasting.(Epic). Almost slog to go through that.
There is work to be done and now stat assignment all into Charisma, protection of the soul is imperative and not because being seen as a troglodyte hurts one's self esteem. Putting Charisma at 11, still human but more on the handsome side now. I have to hurry and study, and stop my body from freezing over.
General POV
Hurrying back inside Noel, left his doubles outside well most of them some just wandered around aimlessly, others were doing the scientists, the more desirable ones actually patrolled. Nine minutes that was all the time he needed and after he could change the world to his desire. Starting with wish, his curiosity at just what he was watching amazed him as he had a formula for everything in his hand, and would never ever use it for anything besides recreating other spells just so it wouldn't backfire on him.
Nine intense minutes later he had read something no baseline human could ever comprehend much less understand, just by the taxation it would have on their mental faculties, or soul.
He had to cast it, it was just on his lips after all, so happy as he was, he never could stop himself from things like this.
"Wish: Simulacrum", he chanted, and in front of him it materialized a newer version a better one compared to the others not quite but a permanent one, well till it is what it is incapable of learning barely a thought between its eyes and his visage plastered on top of it.
No, there it was as the last of its body stopped being ice its visage gained a grin the same one he had at this moment. Noels opposites grin quickly faded as it realized what it was, souring his mood as well.
"You, we, me", stammering confused and jet accepting it knew what had to be done.
"Yes"
"Wish: Simulacrum", with spell replenishment they could cast their highest level one in between one to two minutes each.
Once more a naked Noel manifested in front of them. It knew it wasn't even ice it knew it was just a copy of a copy, but it knew the plan, even if it would forever lack the authority.
The other ones already casted Thine doubles counted more were made and they all could cast spells, too, the doubles only lasted anywhere from 3 to 8 minutes each, but they too could make Simulacrums.
The little numbers game started now, and there was much to be done, and Noel in his own fallibility could simply have cast memorize spell and learned Wish in one minute instead of almost ten.
"You all know what I want done don't you, all who haven't made 2 or 3 more of themselves keep making more, after that start expanding, start making safety nets an let's get ourselves, our first universe conquered."
Yeah all were in favour, there was fun to be had battles to be fought, and all felt invincible.
Now Noel casted Memorize Spell, with his Spellbook in hand, he learned over one minute, all ninth level Spells and limited wish, which he used to simulate the events of Memorize spell to remember more spells. Gaining Permanency, Plane Shift, Geas, Contingency, and Sickening Radiance.
But those spells could still be studied and their effect could still be expanded upon, but for now he was happy, and now he could start the tomfoolery, properly.
Manifesting his mind in numerous doubles, he ordered them to collect and gather the corpses of everybody in the prison area.
He would resurrect them all, while enslaved and mentally loving him, he was several times told making people into undead slaves was the worst us such he would make them living slaves, who were brainwashed to the point the would love it, and him all the more for it.
Yes power went immediately to his head.
He teleported over to Red Skull, the big busty women, stood still at his seeing him appear. She was still charmed, and her mind would never again be free.
Noel wished to cast a regeneration spell on her, and watched as her face healed over, as her old self-inflicted injuries healed over, it was nothing she wanted, yet she couldn't resist or even lash out at him.
Next he placed one Geas after another on her, to further enslave her and ensure her loyalty, and destroy any chances of betrayal. In but a small moment of clarity she wanted to scream, yet her trained mind, new a word or whisper rom him and she would at his displeasure lose so much than now when he thinks himself, safe, it became time to , wait, listen and scheme, for what it was worth anyway. When she thought about it she knew as much as she disliked this she still loved him and would do almost anything for him, the charm wasn't lifted, and the busty blonde didn't know what to do but to continue her life hoping to be ordered around.
Noel was gone seconds later simply, appeared before the Scientist Supreme, repeating the enslavement of her mind, only 2000 members of AIM to go. Noel knew it was time to delegate.
"Wish: Simulacrum", the previous version of him he made stopped existing but a new one was made.
"You know what I want done, so please do it."
"The previous project still isn't finished"
Noel immediately answered, with "Doesn't matter!", but he knew it did, just as much if not more, he teleported again, this time back into the open, several more permanent members were standing guard barriers up and running.
Some kneeled, others stood still at his arrival, and soon all would be equally unequal.
"Is everything ready yet?" was all Noel stoically could say.
"But of course, some of uses just need to be drained of their blood, and all will be ready, you can start already."
"So be it, start making more and cast Genesis and Create greater Mindscape, after that, geas permanency, and share senses.
"Demiplane"
"Genesis" "Genesis" "Genesis" more and more chanted, but not all, could, some had other thinks to work on.
"Wish: Create Greater Mindscape"
"Wish: Permanency"
"Wish: Share Senses"
"Mind Blank"
With the last spell cast, the ritual wasn't finished not for long but the few that would continue they had already entered the demiplane and would from there make a better Sub space, interwoven with all of their minds some were their already, all was now connected, all was transparent, it was now one mind with thousands of brains all running a fractal of the same personality, and the spell wasn't even finished yet.
All prime Noel did as his own mind connected, with all of his 'offshoots', was sweet profusely, he wished he could collapse, but neither his mind, personality, or even soul aloud it, unless he would and he had to supervise this, the mindscape all in all was its own creature, so while he used it like a advanced neural network it was a being, that had to be controlled and enslaved, lets it fucks with the process.
Now he felt the cold on his naked simulacrums just standing in the cold some shielded themselves others, the doubles just accepted their inevitable demise, they smiled at him their thoughts now his own, all their senses all their thoughts his, and his own theirs.
Who was in control, who was bearing the burden, at the end of the day all of them, shared everything. More were created already part of the hive now, unless the spell broke the mindscape killed or their connection
And some, some of his doubles stopped boning their maidens, as they started to revel in their first bit of self-actualization and acceptance, before they got back to it.
Noel felt it all felt it, it was a part of their past humanity, something they should have left behind, but they were fallible, but they could enjoy themselves a bit right.
No one was idle unless that was their purpose, some stood ready, others had already completed their job now it was time to bring back the initially killed, a tragedy such a sad loss of live if right now, all noels emotions wouldn't be heavily in flux a, and easy to direct. Nobody had any idea what the mass connection of identically minds to a certain extend would entail.
1500 Corpses frozen to death, stacked on top of each one by one they were carried in a line to their first station of several, several Noels lifted one on floating platform and the journey started, first they would be resurrected, than immediately charmed by whoever made the platform, from their came the next station, geas upon geas would be placed upon her, then one unlucky soul forced to cast permanency, ensuring eternal loyalty, even in death.
Still charmed and loved they would be taken to the wherever they would be lovingly taken, they were incapable of defying or even thinking against their owners, they were slaves to magic and their owners.
Noel knew something was very wrong and his descend into Greek god started, but even he had little control as all emotions kept bouncing in the hive back and forth amplifying as more and more felt them, creating an unstoppable emotional avalanche, some could resist but who wanted.
Lying atop of a 60 something year old bombshell of a women looking like a 30 year old one at most, with almost several hundreds and as ever more Noels kept indulging; the prime one did and did not want to be left out.
