Event Post: Assassin
THE RUNDOWN
Now that everyone has slept off their hangovers and a new crop of poor, unsuspecting souls has arrived in Hadriel, Rage has decided to spice things up a little. She's bored, and who doesn't love a fun game? More to the point, who doesn't love murder?
Starting April 15th, nearly all the residents of Hadriel will be conscripted into a citywide game of Assassin - featuring actual assassination! Beginning the morning of the 15th, when you see your target, you will instantly hate them. The mere sight of them will spark anger that's strong enough to drive you to do awful, awful things. Just look at the way they walk! Only an asshole walks like that. And that shirt? Hideous. Guess there's nothing to be done, you've just gotta kill 'em!
While this rage is not mindless and can be fought, or you can attempt to ignore it and take no action, the only thing that will actually remove it is the death of your target. The moment their heart stops beating, you stop hating them, whether their blood is on your hands or not. Awkward. But hey, you were just playing the game, right? Otherwise, let's hope you can hold out until April 23rd, when Rage decides she's had enough fun and ends things.
So - enjoy the game! Just think of all the fun you'll have! Raiding Rage's armory for murder weapons, trying to talk someone into taking your target out for you, tricking them into the caves so the monsters will do it for you, drowning them in the lake, ignoring your well-meaning friend who keeps trying to talk you down. The possibilities are endless! Thanks, Rage, you sure are livening up this cave experience!
THE DETAILS
Check this list to see who your character's target is - and then check it again to see who'll be targeting them! Feel free to use this post to plot, or find the player on our contact page and work things out in private. Have fun, and don't forget to let us know if an assassin is successful!
Also, if the matchups have any errors (you got matched with yourself, you're on there twice, you opted out but ended up on the list anyway), let us know!

THE OVERVIEW
► April 15th: Rage begins the game
► April 15th-23rd: Murder ensues!
► April 23rd: It's over! Did you win? Yay! Your prize is regret.
Damianos of Akielos (Assassin: Cho Hakkai | Target: Handsome Jack)
The second thing about Damen is that he is very prone to rage. He has a hair trigger temper, and when fighting, he goes into a kind of battle haze where he kills multiple people all around him and is barely aware of it until he notices the carnage later. He is therefore going to be particularly susceptible to the anger and rage caused by this event, and seeing Handsome Jack is likely to trigger his battle haze. So! Player of Handsome Jack! What are your feelings about this event? I am canonblind to Borderlands! How would Jack fare in a fight with Damen? Do you want them to fight and if so how do you want it to end? Damen would not have enough resistance to Rage's influence to hold back on his own, so he will be aiming to kill if he has you in his sights! About the only thing that could cut through his haze and make him think twice about this is a command from Laurent of Vere, who tends to listen to even when he's not thinking for himself. I've checked with Laurent's mun, and he will be available to help if needed!
When it comes to Cho Hakkai - he will not have any particular feelings about Cho! However, he will not hesitate to fight back against someone who attacks him, and while it's unlikely that a one on one fight would make him lose control of his temper, he'll hit back with force and skill. Again, I am canonblind - how do you want to play this? Will it come to a fight / will Cho resist the impulse? If it comes to a fight, how would Cho fare against him and how do you want that to go down? Unfortunately, if Cho is going for the kill, then so will Damen - he's not the type to run from a fight.

Hakkai is a pretty powerful demon and has killed countless other demons that have tried to kill him on his journey. He's canonly taken down people about 3 or 4 times his size very easily. (Even though he's a scrawny Chinese man). He was turned into a demon by killing a thousand demons three years before the main journey even began through a cold, blind rage.
His body is a weapon. He's a master martial artist and he uses something called a "qigong" canon which uses his energy and charges it into a glowing death ball. He can also use his chi to create a protective barrier (only in front of himself) and heal. (only things like cuts and bruises). He can also use a gun or knives. But he doesn't have any on him since he doesn't need them. He's extremely fast, too.
In his demon form (if he feels the need to take off his power limiters), he becomes so fast that he's barely visible to the untrained eye and he becomes superhumanly strong. His qigong canon increases in power and he gets an added power of using the vine markings on his body and using them for binding purposes.
Hakkai might not be able to resist the impulse since he's so used to killing. He typically refrains from killing humans (though he's done it before), but in this case, he might have a hard time not. He also doesn't back down from fights especially if he instigates them.
Unfortunately, Hakkai is a little OP against someone that doesn't have supernatural abilities. He would probably fare really well against him.
It all depends on you, though! If you don't mind him being killed, then Hakkai is extremely capable. If you don't want him killed, then there are ways to stop him.
Side note: He also has a little dragon that is fiercely protective over him, but he's the size of a large parrot and that's about as much damage he can do in terms of little fire puffs and scratches.

Damen would certainly try to fight back. He's resilient, more so than most people he fights, but he generally doesn't fight anyone with powers, and has no powers of his own. That's not a fight he could win, although he likely would not realise that until he got into it.
Since neither of them would be very likely to back down or flee, could they either be interrupted or, could Damen be hit hard enough to knock him out without killing him? I'm not all that keen to play out death when he's brand new to the game!
no subject
He could also be talked down if Damen had the mind to. It would really boil down to him realizing what he's doing and not being in fight mode.
Oh! Another way to stop him would be someone innocent stepping in between them.
How far would you like to take it if that were the case?

He might even check up on him after he's able to calm himself down.
Yeah. I totally read your comment wrong. DX Sorry!
no subject
Damen would be in his right mind for this fight, so he probably will also try to talk to Cho - mostly to question him because they weren't enemies so far as he was aware! So that may also help, but he equally does fight when he's in trouble. Diplomacy is sadly not his strong point!
no subject
Does that sound like a good idea?
no subject
That works for me if you're happy with it!
no subject
Yaaaaaay! I can't wait to play this out!
no subject
Okay, perfect!
Do you have any thoughts on timing? I haven't worked anything out with Jack's player for the other part of this plot yet. Would you have a preference around beginning / middle / end?

he has no chill i am sorry

But the good thing about him, he'll try to fix the mess he made. Free jeep rides? Not that they can go very far, but hey.
