The Control Room
Khepri's actions may not have shown any immediate results, but back in the control room, the man behind the console was panicking. The electricity was interfering with his control of the mirrors, and the feedback was causing him to lose his ability to control them remotely.
He would slam his hands against the console and then hit a button to turn the display off. "I'm gonna fucking kill that little bitch. This is all her fault!" with that he would place his hands together and extend them as if opening a window which opened up a mirror portal in front of him. Pulling a handgun from his waist, he would step through and-
—---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 'New' Hall of Mirrors
The copies were so focused on subduing Rui that they failed to take the proper precautions against her new ability; the Facade copy would receive a shock and recoil, shaking out his arms in an attempt over to overcome aftershocks. It was due to this that when the real Facade swung he didn't notice until the fist was already making contact. The impact caused the clone to dissolve into a dark black muddy looking substance and fall to the ground, rendered completely useless. The two others, instead of focusing on Rui who was not defending herself, rose to their feet and readied themselves to strike out at Facade. Well, they would have, but...
-A gunshot rang out from behind Rui as a single bullet would lodge itself into her skull. There was no warning, no way to see it coming as a mirror opened from behind her, and a man who was disheveled with messy brown hair and a lab coat was the culprit. He growled in frustration as he aimed the gun at Facade and pulled the trigger. However nothing would happen as the gun had jammed. "GOD DAMN IT!" he screamed as he threw the gun on the ground "GET HIM! We're gonna start over I'm closing the other space! Sakanade get to the exit!" he'd yell to the open portal. In the room with Khepri the mirrors around them would begin to close one by one, folding in on themselves. It would only be a matter of time before the one to bring them home would close; would they make it?
The other two copies of Mushroom Man and Khepri would rush Facade. If Facade was perceptive enough, he would realize that they were much slower than the originals, clearly lesser in the grand scheme of things, but there was power in numbers!
—---------------------------------------------------------------------------
tl;dr
- Control Room man makes a portal and shuts down his console
- Fake Facade is shocked (literally) and then punched, turning into a pile of black mud
- Mirror opens behind Rui and a gunshot is fired into her skull.
- Control Room man tries to shoot Facade, gun jams and he gets angry and throws it.
- He starts to close the mirrors starting with the ones with Khepri.
- Fake Khepri and Fake Mushroom Man charge Facade.

The Lair of the Leviathan
The orange fish that escaped Elias' grasp swam away as fast as possible. If he...no, if the group were collectively unlucky, things were about to get much harder with one of their potential targets becoming more evasive. As for the other fish, it struggled against the threads but ultimately resigned itself as it was reeled in, managing to avoid getting pelted by debris thanks to Freja's quick thinking.
When Elias was able to approach it, it would spit up an orange gem! This was what they needed! Clearly, they had luck on their side, as it was a 50/50 shot. The gem illuminated the cavern in an orange glow, purging the dark shadows and causing any other sea creatures in the area to flee, heading back up the hole towards the surface.
Right on cue, a voice would ring out that the trio could all hear. "Wonderful, you three, take that gem up to the surface, and I'll be able to pull you out." Just as quickly as the voice rang out, it fell silent. The informed would be able to recognize this as the distinct voice of Starling Soul, but ultimately, the details of who this was didn't matter. There was now something more pressing to deal with.
Elias's retrieval of the gem didn't go unnoticed as the Leviathan Eel immediately stopped its assault on Mako and turned to face Elias (and Freja). Its instincts were overwritten with an immediate drive to retrieve the gem. It would roar and head towards Elias, who was likely still holding the gem, and attempt to swallow it whole.
Would they fight? Would they flee? Would they survive? Not if the Leviathan Eel had anything to say about it.
tl;dr
- Elias is the luckiest s.o.b and get the right fish! Orange Gem achieved!
- The rest of the fish flee to the surface, the group gets a telepathic call telling them to do the same WITH the gem
- Leviathan Eel changes targets, not fixated on getting that gem back.
- We're in the final stretches!

The Control Room
The man sitting behind the desk would slam his hands on the desk in frustration as he watched things unfold in the room before him. So far, no one has been able to figure out how to navigate his and his gang's quirks effectively to find their way out. Hell, it was the worst possible matchup for him. The previous electricity was messed with his control over the mirrors to such a degree that it could tank their entire operation. For all they knew, these changes were permanent, and with a good ransom on the people they had collected, they could get rich fast and then run when authorities caught on.
He'd hit a button on the console, and the group of three would hear him call out, "HEY, if you don't get a grip, this whole thing is gonna collapse, Sakanade!" he would let go of the button and hit an identical one next to it, this time the intercom would ring out in Rui's space "Utsusemi, get her!" and then would release the button again, falling silent as he watched the two rooms apprehensively.
—---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 'Old' Hall of Mirrors
In the room with Khepri, Aiden, and Mushroom Man, the fake Rui would drop the 'facade' as her face would twist into a much more menacing stare. "Yeah, yeah, I got it. You there!" she would point a finger at Khepri. "Feeling okay?" Khepri would feel a burning sensation as if their brain was on fire, with the result being that all the functions of khepri's being would now be reversed. Up and down, left and right, as well as forward and backward, would be reversed, but it wasn't just the sense of direction that was changed; their eyesight, direction of incoming attacks, and injury locations were also inverted. The subsequent effect of this would be that the previous inverted speech and language barriers would be gone, leaving only Khepri to be the target of a much more potent effect.
Before any group could react to this, the mirror they were traveling towards would open, and if one peered inside, they could clearly see Rui cowering in front of the group of "clones." "Sure, you could go save your buddy, me, but what about you, Mushroom Man? I have your buddy~" and with that "Rui" would dash in the opposite direction, Mushroom Man hot on her tail as the inciting comments seemed to have worked. This would leave Aiden and Khepri to make a decision - would they go save Rui? or go help Mushroom Man?
—---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 'New' Hall of Mirrors
The sound of the intercom caused the collection of clones to jump at Rui, attempting to subdue her. Assuming that she was too scared to fight back or that no one managed to help her, it was surely over for her.
But perhaps their was a spark of hope? Only time would tell.
—---------------------------------------------------------------------------
tl;dr
- Man angry drops the facade (no not Aiden)
- Fake Rui removes the reversing affect and goes all in on Khepri, taunts the group and runs with Mushroom Man following
- Black Mirror opens to show Rui about to be jumped by...you guys? them? us? Man, this is confusing.
- Decisions Decisions~

The Lair of the Leviathan
With their teamwork unparalleled, despite having just met not long ago, the trio was slowly wearing down the Leviathan eel. As it recharged its supply of aquatic projectiles, it was put into the same disadvantages as before ingesting multiple of the smoke baseballs and stopping it's assault entirely. With its senses deprived it howled, loud enough to shake the cavern as it desperately tried to spit out the smoke and flailed around wildly.
It would have no way to see Mako-kero coming until she was touching its face. Her tactic began to slow the movement of the creature, but at the moment, it would normally be paralyzed, and it would roar and charge forward blindly. With Mako already being on the move it would continue on its war path...
Elias' efforts wouldn't fail him, getting eyes on the three orange fish that had previously eluded the group. Two were nearly at eye level a distance away and another was swimming farther above. For the time being they would swim aimlessly, not worried about the humans (and frog) that had entered their territory. He was close enough that surely some strings would be able to grab the two.
...That would be if the leviathan eel's charge didn't rocket it into the fish floating further up, smashing it to pieces and slamming its face against the cave walls. This would reverberate and cause debris to fall down towards Elias, the fish scattering with the two remaining orange ones going in opposite directions, one to the left and the other to the right.
While the impact caused some major damage to the eel it also shook off the paralyzing effect and let it finally cough up the rest of the smoke. Not going to fall for that a third time it would instead get its barings and lock onto the scent of Mak-kero who had a much stronger scent than the others due to her new frog mutation and it charged full speed at her.
Uh oh.
tl;dr
- Eel eats smoke, chokes.
- Almost falls under Mako's spell but shakes it off at the last second and charges blindly past her.
- Slams into the wall killing one of the last remaining two fish, who split up.
- Debris rains down on Elias
- Eel recovers and goes after Mako

The 'Original' Hall of Mirrors
In the original space, it looked as if nothing had changed. New Rui wasn't moving or saying anything until she was addressed, turning around to face the group and walking back over "It's okay I don't need a prize but when I was walking over there I saw something!" it sure sounded like Rui, and it sure looked like Rui that was for sure "Let's go that way!" She would point in the opposite direction from where the sparks originally went, her first scrunching up slightly as Aiden touched the mirror. "Probably shouldn't touch anything, just to be safe." If Aiden followed through, the shock on the mirror would result in...
—---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 'New' Hall of Mirrors
In the new hall of mirrors, another mirror would light up with electricity IF Aiden did follow through with the initial one. Rui's attempt to approach the ominous black mirror wouldn't go unnoticed, with the alternate version of Aiden speaking up first, "Hey, hey! Let's be careful. We wouldn't want to do anything criminal, would we? We came here to be heroes and save this guy's friend, remember?" with the mushroom man and khepri nodding alongside him. "Why don't we huddle up and devise a plan? We'll come to you. Just stay put." The three imposters would move rhythmically towards Rui, ready to embrace her in a huddle.
—---------------------------------------------------------------------------
tl;dr
- Imposter Rui suggests they go in a specific direction away from...something
- Aiden's taser results in a similar spark in an identical mirror in Rui's domain expansion
- Imposter Aiden suggests they huddle up and come up with a plan, trying to get Rui to not touch the black mirror.
- Go ahead give him a hug Rui. I DARE YOU

The Leviathan
The leviathan eel wouldn't relent in its assault. As Freja got closer, it continued its almost single-minded attempt to consume her, completely unaware that Elias was still holding on. Creatures this small didn't require any chewing, so entering the mouth meant they were a nonfactor. In fact, due to its lack of sight, its other senses were heightened, and it relied on sound to detect its prey. Because of this, it wouldn't close its mouth even though Elias was one chomp away from being fish food.
This would backfire as the smoke wall would end up being what it consumed instead of its target, the duo escaping thanks to the fast thinking and an even faster tongue that freed them. The smoke would prove more disruptive than any of them would think. The Leviathan immediately stopped its assault as it choked on the smoke, sputtering and unable to do anything but attempt to cough out the smoke it inhaled.
Those more aware of their surroundings would notice all the orange-glowing fish begin to descend further, eventually entering a cave opening in the sea floor. Their glow slowly faded the deeper they went. A glance back would see the eel leviathan finally recovering, giving them two options: fight this thing where they were or head down.
—---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Lair
If the Trio did ultimately go after the fish, they would be empty out until a large cavern filled with ruins—several ropes, bridges, columns, and broken walls. There were plenty of places to hide or use for cover if it came down to it, which...
Another Roar followed the trio, with the leviathan eel entering the arena. It would "look" around for its targets and puff its cheeks up before spitting out 'water bullets' about the size of a person at random, as it was still dealing with some of the side effects of ingesting all the smoke from before. Eventually it would stop, having run out of ammunition and began to inhale water again like before.
—---------------------------------------------------------------------------
tl;dr
- Rescue attempt successful! Bonus side effect of Leviathan eel ingesting the smoke wall and getting stunned
- All orange fish swim down into a new area
- The surviving fish swims away with a bit more urgency, closer inspection shows its orange is a bit different than the others.
- The Lair is in a cave with a lot of obstacles and places to hide/cover
- Leviathan Eel enters the cave and fires off water blasts, recharging once it has fired off enouugh

In the Darkest Depths
While initially, the fish were unconcerned with the presence of the new trio, something changed once Freja reached out to grab one. As if they all shared the same brain, the collective dozens of fish would move away from the group, with some moving faster than others, particularly the fish that had the orange glow.
One thing that could be certain was that even when moving more frantically the fish weren't aggressive instead only moving far enough to put distance between them and their would-be captors. However, none of them could have anticipated one of the humans having a quirk that was very fitting for their environment and no that wasn't the literal frog.
Of the three fish, Elias would attempt to capture one in particular, which would wriggle out of the net's grasp and move a bit faster than the rest. If any of the three were perceptive enough, they would see that this fish, in particular, was a slightly different shade of orange than the rest. It was just a matter of time before they were able to fig-
An extremely loud roar would reverberate through the area, almost shaking the ocean.
—---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Leviathan
Finally, making its appearance known, the large eel-like creature, The Leviathan, would shoot out of its hiding space and make a beeline for Elias in particular. Whatever he had done clearly triggered the creature. It would open its maw, showing rows and rows of sharp teeth, and due to its size, it could easily swallow one (or more) of the group whole. If they weren't busy panicking, the creature's large eyes had a quality that made them stand out; they were milky white, and the irises were faded. Even on the warpath, it didn't seem to be focusing on any of its surroundings, in fact smashing through some coral in the process.
If Elias managed to avoid its initial charge, the creature would turn and roar once more, considering its next target for a moment before choosing Freja. It would begin to inhale deeply, creating a whirlpool as it aimed to consume Freja in one go. For the time being, it would be in the fixed spot, clearly unable to swim and use this whirlpool ability at the same time.
—---------------------------------------------------------------------------
tl;dr
- Freja's fish does indeed swim away
- Elias' attempt is more successful nabbing two out of three of the fish
- The surviving fish swims away with a bit more urgency, closer inspection shows its orange is a bit different than the others.
- The Leviathan roars and charges at Elias
- Regardless of whether Elias is grabbed or not it then focuses on Freja, creating a whirlpool by inhaling in an attempt to eat her.

The Hall of Mirrors
If Mushroom Man had a face, the trio would see his confusion. He said the space was big, not tiny! Were they all losing their minds?? Perhaps he had assembled the wrong group and- OUCH! He would reflexively jump back from Rui's touch as he was shocked. It didn't hurt, but it was a surprise. "What is wrong with thee? (Translation: what is RIGHT with thee)".
What wasn't entirely obvious was that Rui's lackadaisical usage of her new quirk reacted to the environment. Several sparks would leave each person as they were presumably touched and then bounce between mirrors in the area as they were carried farther away; someone observant might see this as a pattern or potential path going forward.
Mushroom Man would take a few steps back; not exactly a fan of spending more time next to Rui and her impulsivity. His attention was directed to Facade, who aside from the one who initially spoke to him, came off the most rational. "thee may beest c'rrect (Translation: thee may beest wrong)" he would point a finger up and say "This is down (Translation: this is up)" and Khepri's backward speak being translated to regular speech confirmed this fact. "so what d-..." he would stop himself and try to reverse his speech once again "don't we don't now? (translation: do we do now?)"
—---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Somewhere close yet far
"DAMN. IT." A figure slammed their hands on the desk, observing the newest group fall into their trap. "You said you could make sure they wouldn't figure that out; what's the point of your new quirk anyways???" The figure would spin around in its chair to face the other three individuals in the room. "First off, I can change their perception but not their actions. Second, it's hard to move these mirrors with this interference. One of them has a quirk that I'm not compatible with." he would point at the screen towards Rui, who was now moving away from the group. "But! Now that that one is moving away, I think I can really set up our partners here for an easy capture." he would gesture towards the two standing next to him and focus on the images on the screen.
"Mirror Shift."
—---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hall of Mirrors
The group in the room would hear a loud CRACKING sound. The mirrors around them would then begin to move, slowly at first, and then as they picked up speed, they would whip around the group. Some aimed directly at them, and others barely missed them as they flew by. Two individuals would be singled out. The mirrors may have looked like they were moving erratically but were slowly pushing them into an unavoidable situation. Both Khepri and Rui would have a mirror pass over them with Khepri coming out of it with nothing changed...except when they would try to speak now only able to speak a single language - French. Rui would be given a different fate as she was transported to an identical copy of the current space and would leave behind an identical copy to leave the group none the wiser. In the space actual Rui would end up in, she would also be greeted by the same people, with the only difference being that the colors were duller than in the other space.
Far away, in the same room as the real Rui, there would be a mirror different from all the others. It was jet black and would occasionally crackle with the sound of electricity, sparks running up and down.
—---------------------------------------------------------------------------
tl;dr
- Mushroom Man helps figure out the trick and gets shocked by Rui
- Rui's electricity is interacting with the environment somehow
- The mastermind is at work with a new plan - uh oh
- Mirror Storm! They fly around and both Rui and Khepri are caught up in the chaos.
- Khepri can now only speak French
- Rui is transported to a new, duller space and replaced with a copy.
- She has identical copies of the original group.
- There is a pretty distinct mirror farther from real Rui.

Unless there's a pair of snakeskin boots in that window, in which case he will do everything he can do minus lying to get that pair.

Jouma is a man's man, and his appearance reflects that. Not only is he tall, but built like a truck. He worked hard for his muscles, and is proud of them. While he is not above T-shirts and jeans, he does try to be more fashionable whenever he can with slacks, buttoned shirts, and sometimes a fancy hat.
[div][attr="class","body"][div][attr="class","header2"]HISTORY[/div]
Jouma Joukou has the humblest of origins: at the very bottom of the socioeconomic ladder. His mother was a frail being that almost died in childbirth, and his father was an offshore underwater welder who had a mean streak a mile long. One might ask why his father didn't spend his money to lift his family out of the projects and be proper middle-class people. And the answer was simple: debt. A lot of debt. The elder Joukou had gambling debts, credit debts, debts to loan sharks, and medical debt due to Jouma's birth and his mother's complications. Jouma's parents weren't even married, but his father stuck around due to some misguided sense of responsibility. Which was muddled as what little money they had left after the collectors took their share the man spent on alcohol.
Needless to say, Jouma was beaten a lot in his childhood. He took the brunt of a lot of abuse because that same sense of deluded honor prevented the father from beating the mother. The only problem with this was Jouma inherited his father's temperament, unwilling to put up with things such as this, which resulted in even harder beatings. This cycle continued until Jouma, five years old and skinny as a rail, stood up for himself during one of these encounters and accidentally removed a portion of his father's arm. This manifestation of his quirk, not to mention what he had just done, created a whole slew of problems that ended up getting him removed from that home. Both adults were left to an unknown fate, but it was a life that was soon to be left behind.
After receiving counseling for his quirk and how to control it, Jouma was entered into the system where he bounced from home to home. Despite better living accommodations, he had picked up enough bad habits and attitude to be a delinquent. At least, one that was mostly harmless. With the years of abuse he had endured, he hyperfixated on what the ideal man should be: what he should look like, dress like, sound like, and this resulted in a tumultuous primary and middle school years for him. It wasn't until high school that he started to solidify himself into his ideal self, but at the insistence of the school they required him to pick a career that wasn't drenched in beer and testosterone. Initially, Jouma considered arm wrestling the councilor over his decision but didn't find that appealing enough to get his way. It was during this time he learned of a new pro hero breaking into the scene: Vox!
Jouma saw his debut, and initially dismissed it. That guy was short, and skinny, and was not masculine at all! But something about the presentation bothered him, poking and prodding that after a few days he revisited the debut on a borrowed computer, reassessing his thoughts. He was stylish, he was outgoing, he was brave, bold, and ready to prove himself! What he didn't realize was he was so critical because he himself wanted to be that hero, out in the world proving himself and showing the world just how manly he was! It was like a mirror, and any critiques he had was what he said to himself at the end of each day before going to sleep, things he needed to do better with! With his mind made up, he presented his findings to his councilor, and began training for the entrance exams. UAU was going to be his new goal.

[b]QUIRK TYPE:[/b] Emitter
[b]QUIRK DESCRIPTION:[/b] Matter Master allows the user to convert physical matter into a unique energy source. The energy from this is a bright crimson in color, and has the appearance of liquid glass. It can be made into any number of different things limited by the user's creativity and time to think.
In order to convert matter, the user must be touching the material in order to convert it. The energy floats around them during the conversion process, and remains there for a time until the moment a construct is created. The larger the construct, the more energy is expended in the process.
All constructs require a level of concentration to maintain, and turn to crimson dust if concentration is dropped or a set amount of time transpires. Larger constructs require more concentration, not to mention time and energy to create. Construct complexity is also a major factor in how much time or energy is used up.
[b]QUIRK DRAWBACKS:[/b] Touch is required to begin the conversion process, as well as some of the user's stamina. Matter Master cannot convert energy like fire or electricity, and only excels at deconstructing solid material. Constructs also cannot be made if the object being created produces a chemical reaction or has any kind of power output.

Special Ward Shibuya, Local Convenience Store
Mushroom Man would stop pacing as the three individuals approached, albeit for entirely different reasons. He initially placed his hand on the hilt of his blade but eventually relaxed once he realized these weren't the same ruffians from before. He sighed a breathe of relief and would speak to Khepri "thee shouldn't beest afraid of me young one" he would give a bow also addressing the other two "unf'rtunately i doth knoweth what hath happened h're mine own cousin and i w're chasing down some ruffians at which hour that gent hath followed those folk into yond building" he'd point to the convenience store "t hast been an hour and those gents has't not hath returned"
At that moment, the building entrance would light up and whether the group was prepared or not, they'd feel a pull as if gravity itself was forcing them inside. If resisted, the pull would get stronger until they were launched into the building only to be greeted by-
—---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Hall of Mirrors
The inside of this building didn't reflect the outside. Anyone smart enough would realize that this was a space generated by a quirk, as physics doesn't allow for dwellings like this to exist. On the inside, it was eerily quiet so quiet that one could almost hear the individual heartbeats of the quartet.
The silence wouldn't last for long as a tremendous BOOM would be followed by a bright illumination of the room. The group would find themselves in the center of an endless room of geometric shapes, surrounded by colorful reflections and lights. Upon closer inspection, these geometric shapes were multicolored mirrors; looking directly at them would invoke a feeling of wonder.
Mushroom Man would be the first to speak. "This lodging is huge" was what he said, but what the others would hear was "This lodging is tiny" Of course, Mushroom Man only heard the former and not the latter. Not being able to communicate properly seemed to the first obstacle. Good thing this group wasn't very chatty or it wo-
Uh oh.
—---------------------------------------------------------------------------
tl;dr
- Mushroom Man gives exposition
- Some mysterious force pulls the group through the door
- The space is HUGE and there's no way they're in that actual convenience store
- Say what you mean and mean what you say: impossible edition

OOC: Round 2 begins! Going forward, you are more than welcome to post more than once per round, but you are by no means obligated to do so! Just remember to make the required one post per week before the deadline!
Remember to include a TL;DR at the end of your post! <3
Additionally, if you want to plan a cool character moment ahead of time, like making a heroic sacrifice or setting up a team attack, but want to keep it a surprise to the other people in the thread until it happens, feel free to sneak into my DMs so we can plan out the details! This is not mandatory, but I want to make sure every character shines and looks their best during this thread!

Beneath the Waves
With the figure pointing them toward the descent gone, there was nothing left to do but form a plan and marvel at their surroundings. Had it not been for the impending feeling of doom from being forced into a metaphysical world, it would honestly have been a nice place to relax.
It was a rather enchanting ocean world with vibrant coral reefs and colorful fish swimming throughout. The clear blue sky above the water cast gentle rays of sunlight through the water's surface. Looming ahead of the group however was the pit to dive deeper. The sensation the dreamers would get when they approach would be akin to needles on the skin but assuming they listened to their frogfish companion, they would dive and-
—---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the Darkest Depths
Inky darkness would surround the group as they floated down towards the very bottom of the ocean. The further they fell the more illuminated their path would become, with specks of multicolored light coming into focus. The opening would grow largely suddenly as they were greeted with the sight of hundreds of fish, and the glow from their bellies caused their scales to glow in different colors. From red to blue to green and even orange, the large schools were swimming in patterns, only moving away slightly to give the trio room to land.
Perhaps their guide should have elaborated more on which gem they were looking for. Between the copious amount of fish, there were at least a dozen or so with a very distinct orange glow. It would be obvious that one of them had the object they sought. It was a matter of trial and error - simple enough!
Well...it would have been had they been alone. Hiding a distance away from the group, obscured further by the schools of fish a pair of extremely large eyes could be seen watching the group. Whatever this...thing was its eyes were darting between the group and a particular orange glowing fish. The creature's body tensed up as if preparing for something...
The question was, what?
—---------------------------------------------------------------------------
tl;dr
- If they choose to enter the hole the group will descend to the bottom of the sea floor.
- the opening is filled with hundreds of fish with glowing bodies of different colors, clearly indicating that they consumed a gem
- There are about a dozen or so orange fish
- Something is watching the trio, camouflaged and waiting for the trio to make a move
