Creature of the Seabungle.

Jungle

Jungle

I vote Creature of the Beach, because I want this to end in monstrously huge siege crabs and giant pincers crushing burning tiki huts.

>>5685399
>>5685405
Your form is small and smooth, your eyes see far scurry along the jungle floor looking for small insects to eat.

>>5685414

Tiki huts? Fuck that, let's multiply and go after New Orleans or some shit.

>>5685437
Gay. You should add impetus to suggestions that provide meaning or reasoning, IMO.

>>5685437
Eat ourselves.

>>5685449
You have only just become aware of your surroundings, without true memories your primitive mind does not know much beyond eating and sleeping.

>>5685463

You attempt to reach your tail, but find that it is too short and stubby, besides you do not have much in the way of teeth.

>>5685463
I second this suggestion. Let us devour our own legs.

timeskip to sentience.

scuttle around searching for smaller creatures to eat

>>5685472
Search surroundings for suitable shelter/den/lair, and if shelter is unavailable, building materials.

>>5685490
You manage to reach your hind legs. They taste strange. The world grows dark around you and begin to feel weak, now you wish you hadn't tried eating yourself.

You are now dead, the world continues around you for another million or so years until another creatures appears.

You are now:
a) a creature of the sea
b) a creature of the beach

>>5685509
So, railroading?

I saw we take a level in Wizard.

Sea!

>>5685519
Well, I still want to be seabungle, asshole.

Beach

>>5685529
>>5685552
>I need two votes for the same creature

Jungle

sea

Sea, and begin by headbutting a rock continually and as long as we are able.

>>5685569
>>5685529
You are a large creature, feeding on tiny little creatures floating in large groups. There are several others like you not far off.

>>5685574
This. Actually, when we get bored, we should attempt to ford the beach and eat the jungle bitch's corpse to increase our manly aura.

>>5685574
In your attempt to headbutt the nearest rock you find yourself getting stuck in the sand. Perhaps you should turn back.

fight giant squid

>>5685609
No, keep going. We'll make it.

>>5685625
As you struggle more and more up the beach your companions begin calling out to you, but you ignore them for they do not know of your glorious plan!

Finally you reach the rock. You begin headbutting it, though you aren't able to generate much force because of your form.

>>5685648
Go attempt to communicate with our companions. If we are not capable of speach, use body language. Assess if they are capable of higher thinking, too

>>5685661
You halt your glorious work to attempt to communicate to your companions. Your skin changes colors, expressing your love for them and as well as you can telling them of your great work. They seem as intelligent as yourself.

>>5685648
BURN AND RAPE THE JUNGLE

>>5685648
Okay, it's time for our SECRET REVEAL.

We don't headbutt the rock forever for no reason - we headbutt it until we develop PSYCHIC POWERS.

>>5685682
TBH, I'm kind of stumped here. Obviously there are some intelligent members of our species, including ourselves, but we're still octopus dolphin things. Our first thoughts would NOT be "crawl onto land." What does a creature do first, besides eat, mate, and sleep?

>>5685714
Once long ago, one creature like yourself ate its own leg.

One might wish to travel the great oceans of the world, or you might develop tools to conquer your fellows/kill your enemies. There are a great many things you might wish to do, perhaps you wish to find a permanent shelter?

>>5685714
Dude, I promise you I have a totally awesome plan for when we develop psychokinetic powers. I don't want to give it away, but it will be BITCHIN'.

>>5685746
You decide to forget your companions and return to your glorious work.

Eventually your head begins to hurt, are you sure you'd like to continue?

>>5685784
I am indeed sure.

>>5685784
that's the beginning of psychic powers

>>5685740
Fair enough. We can't do much worse than eating ourselves, haha.

Well then, let us attempt to speak to our companions and see what their current situation is. Are they hunting? What is our primary source of food? Are they fleeing? What is our main predator? What is our usual form of habitation?

What do we suppose caused us to become intelligent?

>>5685817
>>5685801
God I love you /tg/. Problem players to a man.

>>5685828
Hey, hey! Why are you playing WITH the DM!? That's not how it works, man! WHO TAUGHT YOU HOW TO PLAY?!?!?!

>>5685801
Eventually your head fills with a myriad of lights and colors you have never before seen. You are absolutely sure this is but the beginning of your glorious rise to godhood and beyond.

Meanwhile your companions watch your body begin to bloat and and fester. They mourn your passing.

Mere days pass. You are now a creature of the beach.

You are now a a hard shelled creature fighting among many more along the beach, you must find mates for the mating season. Unfortunately you are not one of the bigger specimens so you must search out an advantage.

>>5685828
>majority rules

Unfortunately that form has died.

>>5685880
Okay, blunt trauma isn't going to give us powers then, and neither do moments of dire stress (such as being legless).

There's only one answer left: COSMIC RADIATION.

We've got to stay out of the clouds in and full, overbearing, direct sunlight for as long as can, day in and day out.

>>5685900
Night will hinder our plans. Perhaps we should first gain the trust of our peers and rice as a species as a whole, and then DESTROY THE MOON!

>>5685900
>>5685919
These great thoughts enter your heads. The Sun is the great and glorious god, and the moon is a vile and devious devil, it is the duty of your people to defeat the moon.

>>5685919
Ah, I see you have guile at your command!

Very well, I designate myself Brain-Egomania-Impulsive and henceforth will give thought to all of your commands.

Let us seek out an advantage such as say, pretty colours. Are their flowers, plants or feathers of bright and impressive colour along this beach?

>>5685947
Far away, towards the bigger of your kind there are shallows full of water, teeming with colorful life. Towards the jungle canopy there are some small and colorful flowers.

Suddenly you smell a strange smell on the wind.

>>5685986
Rally more peers to go hunt for this strange scent. We dare not be caught alone and unguarded while venturing forth, lest we doom ourselves. If there are predators we can fight or hope that the ones that followed us are the ones eaten.

Get flowers, fuck males.

aha! I know how we can get the advantage! We'll start our own mating season early, and fuck all the crab bitches first!

>>5686090
Your efforts are almost fruitless, only two others agree and they are smaller than even yourself.

Together you head off down the beach to the source of the smell.

You find a large decaying corpse of an animal that beached itself. It must have been a very stupid animal indeed to do something so very silly.

Your companions agree, it must have been a stupid creature.

It's death though is a great windfall for you, with all this flesh you may yet find suitable mates.

>>5686157
Eat it's brain, gain it's mental prowless

>>5686157
>>FUCK YOU PC'S, IT TOOK ME THIS LONG TO MAKE YOU PLAY NICE.

Okay, can we communicate to our two apprentices?

Tell them we knew the corpse was here, and the sun gave us a vision of the bounty. Instruct them to head out to the breeding grounds and act like females, luring the big males out here. Once the larger males arrive we will tell them of the Glorious Sun and how it has rewarded us for our faith. If they follow us in worshipping the Sun even more bounties will follow.

>>5686207
We must be able to communicate, we could agree it was stupid. Do this one, but in the meantime do:

>>5686182

>>5686207
jesus christ /tg/, you're turning this into crab exalted!

>>5686207
You begin communicating to your fellows in your primitive tongue, but run into problems with talking about males and females. In fact you don't know where these terms came from.

This issue proves of little consequence though, one of your companions immediately takes to this idea, the other seems skeptical.

>>5686292
okay, what sort of concepts CAN our language support?

>>5686292
the skeptics get none of the brain, the one working hard and doing as told get's to share a bit of the brain. Not a lot but a bit.

>>5686292
Haha. Oh god, we've got a trap underling. Okay, tell the other guy he doesn't have to do this, the Sun wants him big and strong to protect the Sun's followers. Get him to shadow the gay crab as a guard, then tell him he can have plenty of food later in return for protecting you at the Sun's right hand.

>>5686330
It doesn't seem to be a problem with your language. Your companions do not seem particularly bright, perhaps this is why one of them took to your story so quickly.
>>5686332
The unbelieving companion is getting quite angry that you will not share part of your prize, it looks close to attempt to usurp your dominant position.

>>5686366
Now that he is looking close to rebelling against you, do you still wish to have him as a guard?

shouldn't we be preaching directly to females about the sun?

I'm torn between:
>>5686366
and:
>>5686332

I guess we could kill this skeptic. His mangled body would prove our strength to the strong males who arrive. I like the idea of a bodyguard, though, but I guess we could get one later.

>>5686410
>'he' oops that should be an 'it'.

>>5686410
Inform him DAT YOUZ DA BIGGEST AN RIGHT KUNNIN'

WE OUGHTA TINK OF A RIGHT KUNNIN PLAN TO TAKE OUT DA BIGGEST AND DA BADDEST KRAB, SO YOU CAN BE DA BIGGEST N DA BADDEST

CRAAAAAAAAGH

>>5686410
We have brought him forth to this glorious gift from the sun. It was us who was blessed not him. Scorn him for his lack of faith, but make it clear he has the chance to repent, and as one of the first to follow us he has the potential to be number 2.

Rape the skeptic, showing him who the superior is and then, send him out as a body guard.

>>5686479
I GODDIT!

WE LURES DA BADDER KRABZ OUT HERE N KRUMP EM BY SUPRISE!

>>5686479
>>5686486
You have successfully intimidated and embarrased it into compliance.

What do you wish to do with your new followers?

>>5686489
NOOOOOOO.

>>5686486
This, if he declines kill him.

>>5686413
With a coterie of strong males we'll attract the best females. What we're really doing is setting up an oppressive eugenic religious society, who can bluster away accusations of inequality or prejudice due to its own leader's (i.e. - us) frailty. It's a personal power thing, we're constructing a society to justify our own interests first, all the time.

>>5686530
WE'Z GOTTA MAKE IT LOOK LIKE THERES A BUNCHA SEE-GAWLS GONNA KRUMP US

WE ASK FO DA STRONGEST KRABZ AND LURE EM OUT TA OPEN GROUND, WHERE THEY FALL INTA PRE-DUGOUT PITS COVERED WIFF LEAVES

CRAAAAAGH DATS A GOOD KUNNIN PLAN BOSS!

>>5686530
Send them both out, then find a sharp stick. When they come back stab the one who was rebellious to death the stick and say the Sun taught you how to use it as you explain religious to the powerful males. He was a mooncursed heretic. Throw the corpse to them as a toy/food/whatever.

>>5686530
Hold a sermon preaching the glories of the sun god, and demonizing the moon goddess, though not promising anything to actually happen to help us. However, the sun god has told us personally that our great race will scuttle across the lands far and wide, but first in order to reach this utopia they must trust in us completely.

>>5686666
ROIGHT, DA SUN N MOON IZ LIKE GORK N MORK

>>5686666
Jesus Christ, man. This is LE as I wish I saw it in my games.

>>5686738
DA MOON IZ NOT ORKY

>>5686701
>>5686666
>>5686595
There are many conflicting thoughts running through your mind.

You will have to decide on one before you can successful implement anything, meanwhile you and your companions of filled yourselves on the flesh of the creature. You and the first follower ate the brain of the corpse while the other ate its muscles. You told the more rebellious of the two that it was to be your strength where the other would be your soul.

is anyone else thinking of this?

>this will end well

>>5686666
i pick this

>>5686790
LET OUT A MIGHTY ROAR TO LET EM KNOW YOUZ DA BOSS

>>5686790
only do the stabbing thing if it doesn't seem loyal still

>>5686771
Check the number of the post, too.

I support:
>>5686666
And:
>>5686701

Can we like Sense Motive on the questioning guy or something? If he's really had a change of heart I'd let him live, but otherwise eat muscles while they are away and then stab him good.

>>5686666
Kind of defeats the purpose of telling him he was our strength to then stab him. However, if we do use a stick to kill him GO FOR THE EYES! No telling how awesome our mighty shells are.

>>5686856
>>5686855
YOU LIL CRABLINGS GOT IT ALL WRONG

YA GOTSTA SEND HIM TO DIE. DONT MAKE IT LIKE YE KILLED HIM YA GIT.

Finally we're a crab. I wanted to be one from the beginning, but you guys kept making us lizards and dolphin squids and killing ourselves.

This sun god idea is actually very good. Religion is a powerful force, especially among primitive societies. Show them that God rewards faith and following His prophet (you) but punishes disobedience. Do NOT kill the formerly rebellious crab, since he has repented and eaten muscle.

As for mating and "traps," it's obvious there are no genders. OP has said "it" and has said that gender is unknown to us. We are hermaphrodites

>>5686840
> I was hoping to explain this 'in game' but your all essentially 'female' (two submissive partners give dna to the dominant one who lays eggs which are cared for by submissive partners).

>>5686856
Now that he has fed, he seems much more loyal. Perhaps you should test his loyalty?

>>5686595
CRAAAGH!

>>5686907
LETS GET 'EM TO KRUMP SOMFIN!

LETS GOO TO CRAAAAAAAGH!!!

>>5686907
Send him into the jungle with a small force to look for more life. Take note of competitors, food sources, and predators.

>>5686902
>>5686891

Both good ideas. I felt the same about the crab thing.

>>5686907
I'm not sure how we should do this one, but it's good. We should make him into a fanatic and continually test his loyalty with tough, dangerous assignments. If he succeeds, great. He gets rewarded. If he fails, no skin off our nose... err, olfactory sensory organ. Send them both out.

Design a weapon nonetheless, though. A bone or sharp stick.

Eat and grow huge.

>>5686907
Harvest as much of the best meat we can, but don't eat it. Have our followers do so as well. Take it to the unbelievers and give it to them as a gift, promising them more if they follow us and believe

I suggest we make our God manifest as the ocean too, so we don't get too dried out.

Since OP specifically gave us two submissive followers and told us that it requires two subs and a dom to create new life, he also wants us to do that

Remember we still haven't lured to strong males here yet, guys. We need to do that now.

>>5687000
LETS MAKE IT RIGHT KRABBY

OW BOUT WE COVER OUR SHELLS IN 'ARD BITZ AND POINTY BITZ?
DAT WAY WE CAN RUN INTO WHOEVER TRIES TA KRUMP US 'N STIKK IT TO 'EM

>>5687044
I support this notion.

>>5687013
>>5687000
You instruct your Guard to gather up as much meat as he can and set off back up the beach. Though he struggles under the strain of great mounds of meat your sporadic encouragements seem to be very pleasing to him.

You begin preaching to the large gathering.

>>5687020
NO WAY, I GOTS A BETTER IDEA

WE GETS THE TUFFEST OF US TO GO INTO DA CIRCLE, GETS DA WEAKEST OF US TA GO 'N PICK A FIGHT WIFF HIM B'CUZ DA SUN GOD SEZ SO

DEN DA BIGGA KRAB ACTS LIKE HE GOT KRUMP'D, N WADDLES OFF

DEN WE TELLZ DA GITZ DAT DA SUN GAVE US DA POWER TO DO IT

THEN WE CRAAAAAAGH

OP pic looks familiar.

Riven?

>>5687044
Not bad. The angry dude can be the start of our CRAAAAAAGH warrior cast too.

Giving ourselves a distinctive shell and natural weapons will enchance our fighting ability and prestige, so let's go for it.

Maybe we should, like, actually say a prayer to the sun? You never know...

>>5687044
>>5687048
AS you preach, the notion of attaching objects to your shell strikes you. Seamlessly you weave this new idea into your sermon.

Some of bigger creatures have already left, grumbling about silly ideas. Others seem to be on the edge of joining you while others seem already rapt, the promise of more food brings even more to your cause.

You now have 15 followers!

>>5687116
DATS RIGHT KRABBY DAT IZ

ROIGHT YA GITS, GATHER 'ROUND.

AY, SUN. YOUZ DA BIGGEST N DA BADDEST AROUND, ALWAYS ON A CRAAAAAGH AGAINST DA MOON

WANNA GIVE US DA POWER OF DA CRAAAAGH?

>>5687066
sing the song of the sun god and the crab race.

This land is your land, this land is my land
From California, to the New York Island
From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters
This land was made for you and me, by the sun god

Then promptly name this rotting carcass New York Island

>>5687066
We've invented Jehovah's Witnesses!

>>5685661
>>5685714
>>5685828
>>5686902
These were all me, BTW

>>5687141
MAKE EM START FIGHTIN EACH OTHA

AND MAKE EM MORE POWERFUL THA TOUGHER N MORE BELIEVIN DEY IZ

>>5687141
Pick one of the big guys. It's do or die time, you can't expect power without taking risks.

Scream that the SUN has CURSED him for his WEAKNESS. Call him out. Do whatever it takes to win. Show member of your species violence they never even imagined existed.

>>5687161
You have praised the glorious Sun and declare CRAAAAAGH against the deceitful Moon. To give your people more unity perhaps you should name yourselves?

>>5687214
You command your followers to engage in ritual combat to the Glory of the Sun!

>>5687190
ack, not OP. That tag is in there from another thread

>>5687141
When we get weapons and armor, make sure they look impressive, even over functionality. Maybe the warriors can have functional weapons, but we have to LOOK good. Also, do not stray too far inland or out to sea, in case we are eaten.

Divide up our new followers into, uh, "breeders" and warriors I guess. No priests yet, since we are the only voice of Him. Our numbers can grow, and eventually we slaughter the unbelievers by overpowering them.

We need a "home base," but it shouldn't be near the corpse since big predators will come to feast on it, and us. Maybe a corner of our species' traditional home area? Slowly expand into the prime real estate?

>>5687271
I vote we name ourselves Craztecs.

>>5687235
this

>>5687214
DATS RIGHT KRABBY BOSS!

>>5687271
YOU IZ BOSS KRAB

DIS IZ KRAB CLAN

>>5687271
we are the TUNNEL CRABS and we rule!

>>5687271
just "the people of the sun" for name

>>5687320
I SUPPORT DA KRAB CLAN!

>>5687235
Selecting one of the larger specimens (though not the largest, still quite a bit larger than yourself), you challenge it to combat. What follows is a short vicious duel, which you win, though not easily.

The Mating Time approaches, you must prepare!

>>5687315
Is there not going to be a Bad Guy Quest tonight?

>>5687315
(Lol'd a storm at that)

ROIGHT, WE'Z GOTTA DO 2 THINGS

WE GOTSTA DIVIDE DA KRABS INTO DA BIGGEST N BADDEST, N MAKE EM DA BOSS KRABS

WE GOTTA MAKE DA MOST BELIEVIN-IST O' DEM, AN MAKE EM DA BREEDA KRABS

AN WE GOTTA MAKE A CRAAAAAGH AGAINST DA MOON-KRABS!

KRABS! KRABS! KRABS! KRABS!

>>5687294
Okay, few things:

Right now, we can't afford to have nonfunctional gaudery. Stick to stuff that's useful.

Ones that lose their fights become breeders. Those that win are warriors. We're special, the first priest or 'prophet'.

We will attract followers and strip that carcass clean, then set up our base amidst the bones. They might prove useful for weapons or buildings.

>>5687367
Nah, I'm holding off for tomorrow night.

>>5687363
WE TAKE DA KRAB WHO WE JUSS KRUMPED N MAKE 'EM FULL OF DA BADDEST KRAB EGGS, EVER!

WE'Z GONNA CRAAAAAGH AGAINST DA MOON KRABS, TOO!

>>5687382
Thanks, I'll be sure to check in then.

>>5687363
No more followers gained from that?

Breed with as many as your breeder crabs as possible, as detailed by:

>>5687373

But make breeders strictly the weakest and warriors the most believing and toughest. The losers and victors will do right now though. Allow each victor to breed with one loser, but you breed with as many many losers as you can.

A little down the way towards the corpse you did see a slightly overhanging cliff with soft sand below, perhaps this could serve as your 'home base'.
>>5687320
>>5687353
You name yourselves the KRAB CLAN.

Are we only allowing warriors to breed with warriors? Do we want like, superaggressive warriors in the future?

>>5687375
I love your idea about separating the peons, let's go with that. Maybe our cult emphasizes strength, but not death? That means we don't kill our own followers, just heretics.

I still think we need to be away from the carcass, that's just asking to be eaten.

>>5687363
Hrm, mating. After the personal combat, assign two breeders to one warrior and get to mating. We, as the prophet, get four breeders

>>5687438
KRAB CLAN!

WE'Z GOTTA MAKE DA FORT RIGHT KRABBY! ADD BONE SPIKES 'N GET BIG ROCKS

WE'Z GONNA LIVE UNDER DA ROCKS, SAFE FROM DA MOON

>>5687363

Eat. Eat a lot. I'm assuming part of the reason we are small is because we are young. If we eat a great deal, we will grow larger.

>>5687460
AN WE MATE WIFF DA KRAB WE KRUMPED

>>5687432
All breeding requires 3 individuals. With your current numbers you could have 5 breeding groups or 3 breeding groups if you divide equally.
>>5687460
You select amongst the largest of the losers for your mates. There are now 2 breeders (not including your original followers, who did not fight), and 6 Warriors.

WE NEEDZ TA MAKE SUM TIME TO TAKE ALL OF DA MEAT BOSS!

>>5687460
That cliff will do for safety and to allow us access to the stripped carcass. I prefer your idea to 2 on 1 pairing to my own 1 on 1. Let's go with that, and we get 4, like you say.

>>5687507
(Can I ask, what species of crab are we? Or are we just generic crab?)

We must remain out in the open to receive the blessing of the sun god. Anything that gives shade is an affront to the sun god. No walls, no cliffs, no trees, no rocks, no moon!

This is so much fun XD

>>5687507
Fine, you seem to want us to be near the corpse, so let's go to that overhang and make nests for eggs. Sentries should be posted while the warriors accompany you and your two minions to the corpse. Continue to feed, but harvest food as well and bring it to the overhang. Build defenses, maybe?

>>5687536

Then we'll dry out. Shade is a luxury, a necessary weakness.

>>5687576
Then you are weak, and tainted by the moon!

>>5687536
BUT WE GOTSTA MAKE A WALL 'O POINTY STUFFS!

WE GOTSTA MAKE ROCK BURROWS, SO NO SHADOWZ, BUT WE CAN HIDE FROM DA MOON!

>>5687582
HIDING ISN'T KRABBY!

BOSS! WE NEED SNEEKY KRABS TO HIDE NEAR DA UGE DEAD THING IN CASE SUMONE TRIES TO STEAL OUR MEEAT.

IF THEY SEE ANY FING TRYING TA STEAL OUR MEAT, DEY CAN KRUMP HIM GOOD AND PROPA!

>>5687589
DA MOON IZ HUGE

UNTIL WE'Z GOT A RIGHT PROPA CRAAAGH WE GOTTA BE RIGHT KUNNIN.

>>5687514
You send some of the warriors off to gather meat from the corpse while you ponder the question of dividing the remaining mates among your followers, alternately you might simply let them determine their mates.
>>5687531
> you are an alien crab
>>5687520
>>5687548
You begin moving the rest of your followers towards the cliff.

>>5687576
We're gonna try and make ourselves specialised to endure the sun, I think. We CRAAAGH at day, and burrow at night.

>>5687609
YOU'VE DOOMED US ALL! YOU MUST OFFER SACRIFICES TO THE SUN GOD TO MAKE AMENDS FOR THIS DISGRACE OF LEAVING HIS PRESCIENCE!

>>5687609
WE GOTSTA GIVE DA MOST MEAT TO DA STRONGEST

>>5687619
Interesting. If we are the Cult of the Sun, we should embrace it as well. By burrowing in the sand we should probably be able to keep moist, too.

>>5687637
How should we do sacrifices to the sun? Cast it into the ocean? I doubt we've discovered fire, and it's not like we can go "Okay, now I want to discover fire." We won't find it until we find it, if you know what I mean.

>>5687602
DA MOON KLAN MAYBE KUNNIN, BUT DA KRAB CLAN SEES ALL

I think we need to find a way to store sea water until it dries out, leaving salt. We need to save as much meat as possible instead of letting any rot.

>>5687643
We should institute a rewards system based on devotion, but everyone should get a good share. We don't want to gimp our race.

>>5687637
The sun thing ain't real. We're just using it to become king.

This is the original LE crabman, signing out for the night. I posted >>5686207
and a bunch of other stuff, also about t'fighting and t'violence.

This has gotten ahead of me now though, and... orky, for some reason.

Looking forward to seeing this quest again.

>>5687675
The sun wants us stronger so that we can defeat his nemesis the moon. In order to properly sacrifice to the sun god and regain his blessing we must SACRIFICE THE WEAK! BLOOD FOR THE SUN GOD!

>>5687675
>>5687619
You stop all your followers and tell them you have just received a vision from The Sun. From this day forth you shall all spend the days under the glorious rays of the Sun, half burying yourselves to avoid death, and then hiding your glorious Sun worshiping selves from the evil moon.

>>5687678
WE GOTTA BE RIGHT KUNNIN, BUT WE SNEAK INTO DA MOON KRABS BUNCH, AND KRUMP ONE

USE HIS SHELL AS A SALT MAKER!

DATS RIGHT BRAINY DAT IS

>>5687695
Your fervent preaching has convinced even yourself of the Suns glorious nature.

>>5687695
DAMN RIGHT IT'S KRABBY, YA GIT

G'NIGHT, AN MAY DA SUN PROTEKT YA FROM DA MOON

>>5687749
Ahahahaha! Religion in action. Well whatever, as long as we're in charge. Try to keep sacrifices down though, or restrict them to captives. I like the Strength not Death idea.

Also, the shell of the big crab we killed? Dip it in crushed flowers and shove bone spikes through it, and we've got our new armour. Use yellow and red flowers to paint a big sun surrounded by burning flames.

>>5687675
sigh, this was me too.

>>5687749
Good, good, all is going according to plan. Can I ask how the weapons/armor is coming? Perhaps what we should do is assign 4 of our warriors to harvest meat, 1 to guard the breeders, and we take the bodyguard, the remaining warrior and our trap to go get the dead big 'un's corpse, carve it up and make his shell into armor?

>>5687776
you and I think very much alike, but you appear to post faster, damnit

>>5687790
me again

DA ONLY SAKRA... SACHRI... KILLIN WE'Z GONNA DO IZ ON DA ENEMY! CRAAAAGH WILL SACRIFICE TO DA SUN

>>5687678
>>5687726
There are several large flat rocks near your current location.

>>5687776
>>5687790
Death in combat is rare, the larger follower you fought is not dead, but is very intimidated.

>>5687800
I'll identify myself as LE Crabman next time this quest comes up. Can do some collaboration.

Remember, children of the sun:
CRAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!

Harness the surface of a flat rock to sharpen the bones of the large creature after you free them of it's meat.

Oh, no! The sun is beginning to set!

>>5687804
What? I thought we attacked a non-follower, one of the big crabs that blew us off?

And I'm just a bit confused about how we can realize salt = preservation when we only just attained sentience

>>5687825
>BOSS, WE'Z GETTIN DARKENED UP!

QUIT YELLIN', YA KRITZ.
GET ALL DA MEAT YA CAN AND GET UNDA DA NEAREST ROCK

>>5687825
We and our submissive follower mate with the intimidated guy, then we camp our with our meat and burrow down for the night.

I was going to say first sacrifice for the intimidated crap, but then I had an idea: Any survivors get tied to the rock and forced ot endure the Sun's heat for days on end. This way they either are sacrificed and baked ready for eating or, through torture, are punished and mind-addled enough to join the ranks of our fanatics.

>>5687833
>Alien crab

what are we going to do on cloudy days? is that the only time we're going to get anything done?

Also, clouds are a boon from the sun, who knows that we cannot bear the constant presence of it's full glory.

>>5687871
We force ourselves to work under the sun. But yeah, the boon thing works well. Rain comes from the sun too.

>>5687871
Cloudy days are signs that the Sun is angry with us, and more ritual combat or raids against other tribes are required. Maybe sacrifices too.

Yeah, time to turn in for the night. As the prophet of the sun, and since we actually believe all this, we're probably going to be terrified. Try not to show it

>>5687825
TAKE WHATEVER MEAT WE HAVE AND START FUCKING HIDING!

>>5687833
Those were mostly way too big for you to take on.

>>5687848
Are you sure you would like to mate with these two? You already have 4 selected mates.

>>5687898
Just give them to be mated then.

AY, BOSS

CAN I GET AN IDEA OF WHERE WE IS?

I WANNA KNOW WHERE DA OTHER CLANS ARE SO WE CAN HAVE A RIGHT PROPA CRAAAAAGH!

>>5687910
>>5687898
And tomorrow, subject the defeated guy to that trial of the sun thing. I want crab armour and/or a new follower.

>>5687914
You are now a few short minutes away from the rest of your people (those not following you), though they are not organized in any real way. You know of no other Clans on this island.

You Sleep.

You awake in the very earliest hours of the morning, the moon is just now setting as the hints of the Glorious Sun's light peek over the world.
You are now buried underneath the sand, all of you huddled around a significant pile of meat.
The sun has set and the moon will rise shortly do cast its vile light upon the unbelievers.

>>5687946
YA WAKE UP, AND LET OUT A MIGHTY "CRAAAAAAGH!" TO LET DA OTHERS KNOW ITS TIME TO WAKE UP 'N EAT SUM MEATS

DEN WE GO TO CRAAAAGH

>>5687946
Seems like a good point to stop? Someone archive it?

>>5687946
Is it morning or evening? Assuming it's morning, let us eat our stored food. Prophet first, then bodyguard, then trap, then warriors, then breeders. Afterward, assess the state of the carcass.

We need to find other crabs and preach to them , if they refuse to join our bodyguard kills them

>>5688024
YE DOIN IT WRONG

WHAT YE DO IS WE GO IN TO DA GROUP, START PREACHIN, THEN MAKE 'EM PROVE DEMSELVES WORTHY OF DA CRAAAAGH

>>5688004
>Sorry, it's morning. The top sentence was supposed to be at the bottom, somehow it went to the top.

All your followers eat, and yet there is still much meat left. You begin mating.

>>5688024
well after we did >>5688004

>>5688038
well that would work if we foung a group of other crabs

I got to sissy out of this for the rest of the night. Can't wait to see what you guys do.

Focus on control through religion is good an all but we need more substantial advantages like weapons and tools. See if we could use a stick and some skin from the dead sea animal to fasten a rock to it. Instant Hammer. Also begin construction of additional pointy sticks.

GO KRUMP SUM SISSY KRABS

IMPRESS DA OTHAS INTO JOININ DA CRAAAAAGH

>>5688072
You get the fuck back on /tg/ right this instant.

'Ow bright iz dat Holy Sun boss? Iz it maybe a bit klowdy?

>>5688093
You have had a difficult time finding sticks, but several of the bones of the carcass can be sharpened.
>>5688110
You take several of the larger warriors with you as you head towards the unbelievers.

>>5688139
It is another clear day, only a few wispy clouds appear in the sky, but weather can change in minutes.

>>5688159
'ERE WE GO, 'ERE WE GO!

KRABS! KRABS! KRABS! KRABS!

CAPTURE A FEW OF 'EM TOO, AS TRAININ' DUMMIES

>>5688093
this guy is right, we're not doing enough to ensure our dominance. Tools, weapons, armor, better housing.

Is all we eat meat? Are we omnivores? If so, maybe some local fauna near the beach are edible, brightly colored or otherwise useful to us.

What is our long term goal here? Establish our religion in our species? If so, we have two options: expansion through force or expansion through impression. Either get enough warriors to gang up on and take down the big crabs or create some amazing sign of divine favor

>>5688206
>create some amazing sign of divine favor
Diz git iz right cunnin boss! I'z seen when da Sun iz right krabby, 'e tryz ta drown us wiff water from da sky, and flashes of light dat set tings on fiya!

Maybe we kould kreate sum sort-a pole or sumfin and attrakt da atentshun of da Sun God when he's pissed?

>>5688206
You have one point sticky that you managed to find. You may be able to sharpen bones from the carcass, additionally you may be able to craft a crude hammer, if you wish. You have been known to eat certain seaweeds, though none are in sight at the moment.

Maybe we can find some impressive coloured Plants or parts of dead creatures to mark ourselfs as the choosen of the sun

>>5688252
ENOUGH MUCKIN' ABOUT, LET'S GO KRUMP SOME PUNIES!

>>5688277
Your party approaches its first group. They are similar in size, and did not attend your impromptu sermon the other day. You may be able to convert them through sermonizing.

>>5688252
Begin using the bones to make pointy sticks and make a hammer for yourself in case you need to lead in battle. Also see if you can rub to sticks together with some tinder to make fire.

>>5688245
That

is a fantastic idea. The sun is bright, so it'd be equated with lightning. Maybe lightning is the sun's attempt to brighten our world when the moon sends clouds? We could try and attract it, although it might be hard with the tall trees on the beach.

Or did you mean as like, a totem? That would also work. Decorate it with feathers, petals, dead bugs and the claws of our enemies.

>>5688252
Maybe we should hold up on attacking the really big crabs. Instead, send four warriors to harvest meat/skin/bones, put your most trusted warrior in charge of guarding the breeders, who just bask in the sun/lay eggs/tend them, and take your bodyguard, trap and yourself to go make some sharp bone spears. We'll have no problem killing the big'uns when we have weapons

>>5688324
DA SUN'S ON OUR SIDE, SO WE CAN KRUMP 'EM.

PLUS, IT WILL GET RID OF DA WEAK GITZ.

>>5688324
Ya! Like a Toe Tem! Dat wayz we kould show da Sun God dat we beleevz in 'em and we gonna krush da non beeleeverz.

>>5688372
>>5688324
AN WE CAN PUT KLAWS 'N STUFF ON IT TO MAKE IT KRABBY!

>>5688405
Datz a good idea!

Yer so kunnin boss!

>>5688315
Do they have the same level of technology we have , like sharp sticks? If not challenge them to a ritual fight with the biggest males of both groups while chanting about the greatness of the sun

>Ugh, sorry guys but I'm beat. I'll start it up again tomorrow I guess.

>>5688442
CYA BOSS

>>5688442
Same time?
