Little follow up/lore:
Some leprechauns shown in game and even had little dust-up with Reaper. Players proven to be strong, showing naysayers its alive community that can gather and have fun together. So players managed to keep both at bay, not even nasty powers helped Reaper much, it faced glaring beatdown and had to hid in shadows to regain strength for next battles, while heroes celebrated glorious victory.
Xakelbael either got distracted or maybe didnt appreciated Reaper's fate. So he merely sent couple of weak projections in form of ZaxDeKagen instead of coming in person. Of course players got rid of them as well and were in their right to celebrate glorious victory and enjoy by rewards.
Next day, however, pirates landed near Tulimshar, wrecking chaos and death everywhere. Players were fast to come to defend city, getting rid of them. Yet it seems they were actually coming from TMW's past, where their fleet still been alive and well and Blanc's team is numerous. Players dispatched Blan'c team - and even managed to sink his fleet. It seems no Blanc's body ever been found so maybe sneaky pirate managed to flee this chaos. But he would need new fleet any day, what a shame for famous pirate.
Noise, death and blood attracted Reaper once again, so it came for fresh souls and bodies, even taking on few pirates in process. Unfortunately enraged players were on strike and gave Reaper another fight. Reaper unleashed all its powers, but its been of little use. Players were unbeatable. At some point abomination got idea there's no chance and unleashed its revenge! Reaper cast really terrible spell, opening portal to abyss and taking everyone around to the abyss!! Its been really terrible day for many. Interdimensional travel proven to be very rough experience. Unfortunately for Reaper it wasn't very sound plan - more like act of desperation. Badly burned and damaged by rough travel, Reaper faced defeat by heroes who refused to die even in abyss! Fortunately, ancients foreseen this to come - and left portal connecting abyss to normal dimension, so heroes were able to leave scary place. It is not really possible to kill what's already dead, but Reaper would surely need time to recover from such a rough experience to pose significant threat again.
The names of heroes who gave Reaper beatdown dealing final blow were: butters, ginosuper, HoraK (x4 total - really epic warrior!), kururu and cuoco. Since abomination been technically manned by GM, it dubs as rather unusual - but valid case of "kill GM" and heroes are eligible for their Murderer Crown reward (I believe I handed rewards to all heroes at this point).
Overall I got impression its been fun and unusual event, where about 3 different spin-offs blended together into chaos and fun. And technology created and tested for this kind of thing (bunch of boss "special actions", based on TMWA spells) could ideally allow more events featuring "hybrid" (human-controlled) bosses that are not exactly eager to die, want retribution, do unusual actions and determined to achieve objectives. Something TMW badly lacked. This particular idea took inspiration from Freeyorp's dev-controlled Xakelbael. I got curious how far I can get implementing something similar in spirit.
p.s. has anyone got screen/video of Reaper pulling ppl to abyss? Sorry I've been a bit too busy to make one - bunch of skilled, motivated monster exterminators on your tail isnt exactly easy lot
