Infinitron

Infinitron is the third encounter in the Vryllon Citadel raid. It is a one-phase encounter with intermissions that allow for changing mechanics in the battle, and additionally features a second phase exclusive to Rising difficulty.
==Background==
===Dungeon Guide===
The Infinitron is the name of a gargantuan construct deployed by the Shard of the Sun in singular units to restore unity to corrupt, desolate, and malevolent worlds, even deemed beyond redemption. Limited in number, they still pose a significant threat, damning entire continents with its power, bringing enemies to their knees. Boasting large levels of firepower in the forms of a solium generator and ensnaring spires, the Infinitron guarding the citadel's vaults stands as an obstacle of great stature.
===Encounter Design===
One thing that wasn't shown in great detail was the powerful war machines the Shard used as purifiers of malevolent worlds. We had the Soliaths in Luxor Reach, but there were speculative moments if they were in fact, a battle for a raid of adventurers. As we couldn't use a Soliath for reasons you're free to speculate, the Shard brought in the Infinitron as it made more sense to have as a bulwark for enemy invaders, as they deploy these machines to the countless other words felled by the influence of evil.
===Overview===
The Infinitron is heavily pooled as a fight where players must cooperate with the mechanics, in case with the weapons, and be wary of dangerous, suppressive fire the Infinitron utilizes. It will be a test of healing to see to it that no one falls, as well as damage for destroying the weapons fast enough for the Infinitron to not bolster an offensive. The Rising phase heavily tests the coordination of the raid with how well they can deal with these mechanics in the form of mini-bosses that must be defeated fast and careful enough before a wipe ensues.

Intro
A quake ripples the spacetime surrounding the citadel. Enemy forces and that of the Blades are left astir by the chaos and commotion.
* Salvator Leonus: What on Outhria was that?
* Abel Strom: I'm not sure, but its coming from outside. The citadel itself is shaking.
* Rouge Noir: It seems we have more than just the Shard as villains. The malevolence within the sol energy of the citadel stirs up trouble.
The Shardlord's voice comes over the citadel.
* Shardlord: Deploy the Infinitron units II and III to the citadel breach. The citadel has been breached. My Vryllon, I will be with you shortly.
* Shardlord: Infinitron unit I is to be deployed against the Blades. We cannot permit them to stir up further conflict.
* Andro Mikael: Oh, well that's not good.
Andro recovers from an explosion that decimates his entire battalion of battle mechs.
* Andro Mikael: That monstrosity is armed to the gills. Incredible. Absolutely incredible.
* Dr. Insano: We MUST destroy this machine. So we can use its parts for later... hahahaha...
* Dr. Kaboom: It boasts an extensive network of weapons and configurations for seemingly any onslaught. Oh... the Blades have arrived.
* Salvator Leonus: Esteemed scientists. I am glad you have survived. Great...
* Deathlius Loss'end: The Shard seems to have quite the collection. First, two cowards, and then a prime being of solium energy. And now, a weapon devised to destroy entire armies.
* Rouge Noir: It is of the Shardlord's design. He spoke of this before we invaded the planet of Glasskam.
* Deathlius Loss'end: Invaded?
* Rouge Noir: Yes. We had to glass it completely. Too much malevolence. But he spoke of a machine of his own design.
Claudrien sighs.
* Rouge Noir: And this is it.
* Andro Mikael: They sent two of these things down the corridor to deal with whatever made its way inside. Seems its more of a threat than we are.
* Deathlius Loss'end: There's three of these things? 
* Dr. Kaboom: Well, we are in the Infinitron Assembly Chambers, after all. With these notes we acquired, we can channel a fast track to the upper levels.
* Dr. Insano: AFTER we destroy this... thing. Mind your step, heroes. I'm all out of explosives.
* Andro Mikael: We'll have to divide. Keep the Infinitron at bay; the rest, find another way around. We must get out of the vaults.
* Infinitron: Infinitron I online. Deploying arsenal after successful recalibration. Threat level to be determined.
* Andro Mikael: I'll send the reserves of my machinery...
The Infinitron destroys the reserves with ease.
* Andro Mikael: It's too strong. See what you can do. We're not getting around this without bringing it down.
Aggro
* Assessing battle capabilities. Destroy all opposition.
Prime Threat
* Prime target acquired. Unleashing catastrophic weaponry.
Apocalypse Protocol
* Apocalypse protocol activated.
* Begin apocalyptic protocol.
* Engaging apocalypse countermeasure.
Spires
* Recalibrating infinite weapons system. Spires deployed.
Forced Recalibration
* Infinite weapons system offline. Repurposing reserves into alternate weaponry.
10%
* Threat level assessment: Dangerous.
Killing a player
* Dr. Kaboom: Yikes.
* Dr. Insano: Don't think we'll be able to identify that one.
* Andro Mikael: Heroes!
*Target destroyed.
*Threat eliminated.
*Entity obliterated.
*Threat level zero.
Phase II (Rising)
* Infinitron: Deploy MK2 countermeasures. Worldender now gathering energy.
* Andro Mikael: Oh now this is not fair. Those were on its back the entire time?
* Andro Mikael: Be wary! The "Worldender" doesn't sound good...
All mechs dead on Rising
* Countermeasures destroyed. Reassessing.
Doomsday
* Infinitron unit overbearing. Activating solium doomsday.
Defeat
* Infinitron termination imminent. 
Outro
* Andro Mikael: You... you did it. What a monstrosity that was. If only I knew more of what the Shard were capable of.
* Andro Mikael: Though I should've known as much, especially with the Soliaths on Luxor Reach. But we couldn't risk bringing a doomsday weapon in here.
* Dr. Kaboom: You sure 'bout that? We've could've blown it to smithereens! Insano would've had a field day.
* Andro Mikael: I can't even be sure if it would work. And I'm still recovering from the fact the Shardlord had access to my vault. Or at least, knew how to put the weapons back there.
* Dr. Insano: A fair analysis. But at least she didn't build this thing.
* Andro Mikael: We'll get to her laboratory soon enough. Her creations I assure you are much more vile.
* Deathlius Loss'end: We need to move. My heart is tearing at what lies ahead. The Blades and I encountered Xan forces in the citadel. That's probably what the Infinitrons went after.
* Andro Mikael: Xan forces? Here? That must be what breached.
* Deathlius Loss'end: It's bad. I thought this was what would bar us from ascending. It looks like it will be what's next.
* Dr. Kaboom: We'll work on rewiring the teleporters-
Explosions echo in the distance.
* Kaijin No Sai: The adventurers and I will deal with that threat. The rest of you watch our backs as we make our way down.
* Deathlius Loss'end: I'm coming with you. I'm watching your back after what you did for mine.
* Kaijin No Sai: If whatever is done there can mess with you-
Kaijin points to Deathlius' heart, still bearing infection from Vlaadtu.
* Kaijin No Sai: You're getting out of there. Understood? We cannot risk you losing yourself to the Xan. Not again.
* Deathlius Loss'end: Very well. Salvator, Abel, help defend the Oculus. See if we can get in touch with Glaidra and Jerome. Perhaps we can get some more of Deathrook in here to deal with whatever comes down here.
* Deathlius Loss'end: I'm counting on you. We'll go deal with what is ahead.
A malevolent roar echoes down the hall.
* Salvator Leonus: I'll get in touch with them. Be careful down there.
* Abel Strom: What do you need me to do, Andro?
* Andro Mikael: We'll start linking the tethers. You go on ahead, champions. We'll take care of things here.
