Ghidora begins waist-deep in water. The black water laps around him and the tides are high and powerful. Ships of all kinds, their gray frames black against the night horizon, make occasional splotches of red, and the sound of those human gnats harasses Ghidora. But there is a source of light, purple and unnatural. Floating above the water is a billowing creature, a hundred meters high, a thick rubbery substance at the top and thousands of miniature 'arms' ending in hooks. It is the source of the violet energy, which crackles eerily across the moving water and casts cascades of light onto the ships, a blanket of force keeping the creature above the water. The creature's ten largest tendril-arms form into a star around its body.

OOG: In general, on the forum I try to promote play with a little more self-description, tactical thought, etc. Use the way I post as a GM or in my longer posts on ITM as a model, and some other folks have some very nice things too (Zeebedee, Sithofmacabre, and Ainsophaur have pretty decent post quality in general).
This thing is Alien in Life Mission, has a 120 Notoriety, and a stat spread that looks like:
Strength – 4
Firepower – 10
Intelligence – 4
Endurance – 8
Reputation – 3
Agility – 9
Speed – 7
Willpower - 7
The ships bombard the jellyfish more than Ghidora, but neither are very affected by it, though it is noticeable. Suddenly, the jellyfish's body bobs forward and it begins to run circles around Ghidora. After roughly thirty degrees and a 20% close in, the bladed tentacles rocket in in a ten-point array.

think to myself "what is this thing" dive underwater to attempt to avoid the slashing tentacles then look around for a place to trap him by grabbing two of his tentacles with each of my heads (by biting them of course), one in each arm, one in each leg, and one with my tail.
If i do get him i will think "gotcha now its payback time" get under him (i assume like a jellyfish his underside is exposed if i get underhim) and fire my lightning breath.

His low Speed becomes problematic, as despite his high reflex time he does not get the raw velocity to escape the hooks. They plunge in at a critical point, and Ghidora feels a sting of poison. Luckily, he is then able to grab the hooks, ripping and tearing. They come off, the stubs spewing a thick liquid crackling with the same purple light. They as well as the remaining five retract.
Her underside does seem exposed... except for the curtain of energy that seems repulsive (hence the floating on the surface of the water. and the tentacles.

Ghidora thinks to himself "those tentacles are problematic i need a way to disable them, hold on i have it" moves to manuver himself and fires a freeze breath to attempt to disable the tentacles.

Ghidora's non-lightning charging head fires a freeze breath at the tentacles. The creature rises above the freeze breath, but the bottom 50% still strikes it. The repulsive energy keeps the tentacles from slowing or freezing, though it does cut down on the hovering ability by draining some of the energy. It moves back and spreads its energy broadly, seeming to charge a circular effect in front of it. Ghidora believes that freeze breath might work this time.

use aura breath to see if he is charging an attack if he isnt then freeze breath why continuing to charge lightning breath, if he is charging an attack it looks like then jump up while firing my lightning breath and using my wings to propell me up and over him then land behind him and freeze breath.

He is charging an attack of some sort, but it's certainly possible the freeze breath could interrupt it. And you may not be able to get the freeze breath off, might be knocked out of the air, etc.

ok then freeze breath (which is a time altering affect) followed up by unfurling my wings and jumping/ flying into the air to get out of his reach (of the tentacles) if it looks like he is going to fire the attack off anyway then I will try to use my lightning breath as a counter as best I can all the while thinking (damn I need to find a weakness to exploit).
OOG: fred how deep is the water.

OOG: About a mile.
The freezing attack cascades along the furling and unfurling tentacles and the cone of energy in front of it. The freezing lowers the temperature in the area, acting almost as a superconductor and causing the electricity to brighten and expand. Ghidora backs up both vertically and laterally, but he is not prepared for the striking assault that catches him off guard in mid-air. When he breathes the lightning out, he mistargets and strikes the water, creating a live link between him and the water. Luckily, he is not too harmed and is able to get control again.

activate his healing wave on himself while submerging preping to activate damaging body aura and grab his tentacles in the same way he did last time trying to take advantage of the enimies new slowness brought upon by the frost breath.

Ghidora heals himself, luckily being able to then submerge himself and begin activating the aura. Unfortunately, Ghidora is now being pelted by depth charges from the ships and a torpedo strikes his ankle. The jellyfish now turns to its enemies, impaling the ships and throwing the wreckage at Ghidora's location.

as he turns to his enemies try to come up from under him (while submerged) and try to pull his field that holds him above the water apart (think of how shinji pulled apart the at field) and blast his insides with lightning breath.

OOG: The main issue is that I'm not entirely sure that even with your Damaging Body Aura that your energy will "grip" his and allow you to pull it. EVAs are specially designed to pull apart AT-Fields, but you may not be suited to doing that to this foe.

if its a kinetic physical force I should be able to and actually the evas are not specifically designed to do that it is only a matter of strength (evas are strong) although ghidora isnt the stronger dragon-fish-monster in the sea.

OOG: The Angels' defenses are AT Fields. That's why they are opposed by Instrumentality. And no, it is not a physical force, it's an energetic repulsive force.

no your still wrong thats not tearing an at field thats neutralizing an at field you activate your own to nutralize the angels you can physically tear it.

OOG: ...So, semantics over the distinction between the word "tearing" and "neutralizing" aside, I'm correct. Further, one may note that the Angels don't leverage their AT Fields over the Evas, they just hit them really really hard (with the same abilities they hit humanity with). In any respect, the point here is that this is some kind of repulsive force and nothing actually physical, and I'm not sure if your DBA would grab it.
