Worst. Match. Ever: Misogi vs Ahzek Ahriman

[Wokistan]

Ahzek also has instantaneous moves. Much of his stuff doesn't exactly have travel time, and both activate their things with a thought.

 

[Blackcurrant91]

Yeah if Ahriman can still use Psyker spells in the presence of a blank then Misogi literally has zero win conditions.

 

[Agnaa]

@Emperor Again, could you get this power null/causality manip resistance added to Ahriman's profile?

 

[Wokistan]

He got messed up by a Culexus, but they're enhanced beyond even normal blanks.

His resistance to causality comes more from how he has his own that he constantly uses (This sort of thing is tied to precog in 40k), but yeah if you just post the blank quote in a thread it shouldn't be too hard to add.

 

[EmperorRorepmeThree]

Ok then. I'll fetch the quote it's in Thousand Sons where Magnus travels to Terra with the TS. It's also in the battle against the Space Wolves where Sisters of Silence were present.

Culexus>>>>>>Sisters when it comes to power nullification.

 

[EmperorRorepmeThree]

Ok here we go

"Halt and be recognised," said the warrior who had spoken before, and Ahriman focussed all his attention on him. He could sense nothing, not even an echo of his presence in the world, as though he were as insubstantial as a hologram. Ahriman's throat felt dry, and an unpleasantly bitter aftertaste flooded his mouth. Untouchables, said a voice in his mind with a familiar flavour, powerful, but not powerful enough. Ahriman could not see them, but with the knowledge that there were psychic nulls nearby, he found he could identify them by their very lack of presence. "Six of them," he said over his armour's suit-vox. "Seven," corrected Magnus. "One is more subtle than her compatriots in veiling her presence."

At the meeting there were untouchables which were meant to specifically power null Pskyers at the meeting.

He could still use Enemerations despite there being Untounchables which are conceptual and philosophical tools used to manipulate reality by the Thousand Sons.

Clarity, Ahzek," said Magnus. "Stand with me, and rise into the Enumerations. Retain your keenness of thought." Ahriman tore his gaze from the Emperor with effort and stepped alongside Magnus. He whispered the names of the first masters of Tizca over and over until he achieved the peace of the lowest sphere. Reaching that made advancing to the higher spheres easier, and Ahriman's thoughts returned to something approaching equilibrium with every step he took. Freed from the clutter of emotion, he turned his attention to studying their surroundings as thoroughly as he might peruse any grimoire. He saw that the Emperor was not alone on the dais. The praetorian beside the Emperor was a warrior Ahriman had met once before on Terra, Constantin Valdor.

He could still sense the might of the Emperor. If nullified he wouldn't feel anything.

Whoever occupied the boxes retained their anonymity by virtue of chameleonic cloaks that shielded them from the casual sight of observers. But Ahriman was no casual observer, and not even the overwhelming light of the Emperor could completely obscure the titanic forces lurking beneath the falsehoods.

For example when Magnus nullfied Ahriman and the other captians with his Symbol. He couldn't feel the warp until Magnus undid it.

"Then this Rehahti is over," said Magnus, rapping his staff on the sun disc. Light streamed out from the centre, bathing the assembled captains in radiance. The Symbol of Thothmes was undone, and Ahriman felt the wellspring of the aether wash through his flesh.

 

[EmperorRorepmeThree]

There's also the battle against the Space Wolves.

He saw the first of the null-maidens, and shifted his aim towards her. She fought in the midst of a knot of Space Wolves and Custodes against Hathor Maat's warriors. The bolter slammed back against his shoulder, and the woman collapsed, the back of her neck and shoulder torn off by the blast of the shell. Following Utipa's guidance, he found the second null-maiden and put a bolt round through her chest. The third he killed with a snap-shot as she fled to the cover of one of the wrecked Land Raiders. Immediately, the Thousand Sons went on the offensive. Lightning flashed from Hathor Maat's hands, and Auramagma threw out blazing streams of liquid fire. Kine shields flared to life and the Space Wolves were hurled back from the edges of the pyramid.

Using powers whilst Sisters of Silence around. Phosis T'kar using Utipa when they're around. Phossi T'kar was a captain who was comparable to Ahriman.

Though Phosis T'kar could see no more of the hateful Sisters of Silence, he knew they were there, for his powers were weakening, bleeding from his hands like ink from a splintered quill.

Weakening instead of outright nulling.

The only way to fully nullify a Thousand Son Captain is for multiple Sisters of Silence to focus solely on him.

Bearing in mind this was in the Horus Heresy. Thousands of year prior to current Ahriman who has been bathing in Chaos.

 

[EmperorRorepmeThree]

I think I'll just add all the power and resistances that aren't mentioned in his powers and abilities section but are in his notable powers section.

 

[Wokistan]

I don't think he really has resistances in his Abilities and Techniques section, but yeah if it's in something already on the profile you don't need a CRT to add the abilities.

For others in the thread, "Untouchables" are those at the bottom of the psyker scale, being inverse psykers. All Culexus Assassins are untouchables by default, though they're enhanced even further beyond normal. Even an unenhanced blank can have really bad effects on warp stuff though.
