Aesopian's Guide to Fighting Dieties:

 

These battle scenarios will take place entirely in the normal world. The September Prince is a unique entity, and a challenge to slay. In the block below, you may read how to combat the September Prince in battle scenarios. Further down, you can read how to slay the September Prince. 

 

The September Prince possesses a divine armor class, and so only takes damage from siege weapons, high-level magic (every five tiers of a magic possessed by the party grants one attack), and artifact weapons (message Aesopian over discord with a screenshot of the weapon at least one day before the event, and he will approve/deny it. You'll likely get only one attack using it). When he attacks a nation, you will be expected to use these tools to damage his Body Integrity. If you can reduce it enough, you will be able to drive him off. If you fail, then the region may be partially, or totally, destroyed.

 

Attacks led by the September Prince will consist of both PvE elements, in the form of fighting the September Prince's beasts and minions, and roleplay, in the form of emoting for siege weapons, magic, or artifact weapon attacks. Emotes must be spoken in shout. You do not need to carry artifact items with you in MC, simply sending Aesopian a picture beforehand is adequate. 

 

Note that the Wakefulness attribute of the September Prince is now replaced with Soul Integrity. Soul Integrity begins at 90.0% (+0.1% due to return of one mana seed), and determines his maximum body integrity. Every week, the September Prince regenerates 4.0% of his Body Integrity, up to his current Soul Integrity. His Body Integrity may be harmed during battle scenarios. His Soul Integrity may be damaged by using artifact weapons of particular types, dark magic of a sufficient tier, or by destroying his soul trees. You will be able to find these soul trees scattered throughout the map, identifiable by their green glass leaves and by signs. Attacking one of these trees requires a party of at least four, and is a challenge in-and-of-itself. Details regarding these battles will come in a later post.

The September Prince has awoken. A great birthing tree has grown out of his amber chrysalis, and will soon generate an avatar. His roots wind underneath Atlas. His soul forest is beginning to spread across the land. While it exists, he is immortal. He will begin again his onslaught of old, and start wiping out the cities and constructions of the descendants, until the whole world is returned to nature.

Hu-din shrugs as he sits on his island, thinking about if he should reform Krughanistan or not. "Maybi mi zhuld."

Purge it all Aesopian, purge it all.

"Seen Aenguls und Daemons, nay once have I heard something as above-world as this."

"Septembah Carl has ter go through me before he can bring ruin ter Atlas!" The halfling druid stated as he flexed his muscled arms and prepared his shovel for some ass whooping.

[Ixli 1472]

So, he will be attacking the old orc capital first? That’s what the screenshot seems to entail. 

[Gladuos 869]

Ram Druid Jeremiah stares emptily at the bark of an ashwood tree, palm splayed against its trunk. The elder druid's forehead creases with intense wrinkles, eyebrows pressing together angrily. Incoherent mumbling escapes the horned, armored entity as he becomes lost to the world.

 

"Ah won' let it... Not 'gain. T'is is the end." The turquoise of the tree lord's eyes radiate more brightly as he looks back up, pupils disappearing within the dancing colors of his passion.

@aesopian

Can you elaborate on the five tiers of magic per party, I take it T5 mages can group up and fire their super-spells at the September Prince?
