"So it appears I've been brought back once more.

Every time, the Wastes seem to vomit me up again, send me retching back to life.

I don't know what killed me this time. Leatherskins? Anars? Psychopaths? Other Wanderers?

There should be a rifle near me. I'd take it and blow my brains out with it, but...I'd just be sent back.

'Find the City of Gods' she said to me. 'Only there, shall you be released.'"

turn and shoot an axe man.

should I roll?

I go down instead.

Straight down.

I don't stop until I hit China.

RIP OFF SHIRT
RIP OFF PANTS
GLORY AND FAME
BLOOD IS OUR NAME
SOULS FULL OF THUNDER
HEARTS OF STEEL

duke it out with wastehounds

>>7593724
not wise these guys have got axes and a (probably) bigger gun

>>7593690
>>7593653
(Note: I forgot to update revolver ammunition, after this post, you should only have 1 round left. Don't worry about rolling.)

You snap a shot off at one of the horsemen, but the round ineffectually ricochets off the skull of his steed. Howling, the man leans to hack at your own horse, and in a fit of fury you lash at him with your revolver, whipping the axe away from your mount.

Anger begins to boil in your heart as the winds rise to gale force, causing the leatherskin horse to sway against the wind.

>>7593753
oh their that close now...

FULL STOP. shoot at them pocket revolver grab spear and charge one.

lets lance on of the fuckers

>>7593690
KILLERS OF MEN
A WARRIOR'S FRIEND
SWORN TO AVENGE OUR FALLEN BROTHERS

>>7593753

Jump off horse, roll to a stop while aiming rifle, land on one knee and shoot one rider in the dome

>>7593820
SONS OF THE GODS
TODAY WE SHALL DIE
OPEN VALHALLA'S DOOR
LET THE BATTLE BEGIN
WITH SWORDS IN THE WIND

>>7593892
HAIL GODS OF WAR!

FUCK IT, LET'S GO ANGRY MARINE ON THIS SHIT.

>START PUNCHING
>EVERYWHERE

>>7593822
>>7593786
You jerk harshly on the reigns, dragging the horse to a rough stop, its hooves skidding through the dust and mud. Your three pursuers attempt to mimic your actions, but one, like a fool, only succeeds in hurling himself from the saddle. You take advantage of the moment by putting a round in his skull.

The other two do not immediately charge toward you: you've slain two of their comrades, and they have you cornered. Their leatherskins are obviously fresher than yours and you've nowhere to flee to for miles.

Do you dismount and fire or attempt to spear them?

>>7593955
LEAP OFF THE HORSE
PUNCH THAT FUCKER IN HIS FACE
WITH YOUR SKULL

>>7593955
I throw pistol at one (with pistol), yell CATCH!
and spear the other

then drop spear, pull rifle and stab him with bullet

>>7593975
>>7593955

FUCK YEAH.
CQC THEM BOTH.
DISMOUNT AND FACE BASH WITH PISTOL GRIP WHILE FIRING.

>>7593604

HEY WAIT A MOMENT.
WHO SAYS WE WANT TO BE "RELEASED"?!
I SAY WE GO TO THIS 'ANGER'S SOUL' AND MAKE IT INTO PURE RAGE!

>>7594093
BUT FIRST WE HAVE TO KICK THE ASS IN FRONT OF US.

CHARGE WITH SPEAR!!

>>7594039
>>7593975
You hurl your now-empty pistol at the Wastehound, but he dodges with contemptuous ease. Ignoring your failure, you decide to continue with the assault anyway, and goad your steed into a charge, spear drawn and ready to pierce his heart.

Roaring, the man charges toward you, and a curious tension arises between you. The wind dies and a single ray of light pierces the storm to land directly on the tip of your lance. His axe blade seems sluggish, clumsy, as it glides to you, and you duck under the blow and impale him with your own weapon.

You are suddenly thrown from the saddle to land heavily on the dust. Your steed convulses near you, its neck mostly severed. The final Wastehound smiles, licking his lips as the rain and wind pick up again.

>>7594157
shoot that fucker. we got a cartridge in the chamber on the rifle don't we?

>>7593945

Hello, originally I self-styled myself as a bound-hero, held to this world by imaginary forces and emotional whispers of honor.

BUT NOW, I HAVE SEEN THE TRUTH.
THE REALITY OF THE WORLD.
AND I HAVE JOINED THE ANGRY MARINES.

TASTE THE FRUIT OF MY RAGE!

>>7594157

HEAVE OUR SPEAR THROUGH THE SKY.
BLUDGEON HIM WITH IT.

>>7594195
The rifle is lying several yards away.

>>7594242
You're not really sure what you're trying to do here.

>>7594266

IT'S A SPEAR.
IT HAS A SHARP TIP AND A BLUNT BODY.
WE BEAT HIM WITH THE BLUNT BODY UNTIL HIS BLOOD BECOMES RAIN.

>>7594266
I think he's saying we should try and rip the spear out of the guy we just killed. and charge the other one.

really as I recall it's just a pointy stick and someone implied he was out of ammo

>>7594298
>>7594294
You scramble to retrieve the weapon from the corpse of the fallen Wastehound, but before you can grasp the blood-slick shaft you are thrown aside once more by your enemies charge. He's obviously toying with you now, sadistic pleasure overtaking anger.

His axe gleams in the light of another lightning strike. You fear.

>>7594351

THROW KNIFE AND PRAY!!!

>>7594351
FEAR IS FOR COCK KNOCKING ASS PIRATES, WE'RE ANGRY MARINES.

ALWAYS ANGRY.
ALL THE TIME.

ALL.

THE.

FUCKING.

TIME.

>>7594351

NO FUCK YOU. WE RAGE.
KICK HIM VICIOUSLY IN THE SHINS.
PUNCH HIS KIDNEYS IN AS HE FALLS.
PUSH THE AXE HILT THROUGH HIS THROAT.

>>7594381
how about a compromise?

can we rage first
then throw the knife
then beat the shit out of him?

>>7594482

YOU'RE CLEARLY NOT ANGRY ENOUGH.
WE CAN SLIT HIS HAMSTRINGS WITH THE KNIFE.
IF WE NEED A PIDDLY KNIFE!

>>7594515
since te- sorry

SINCE TEETH ARENT ON THE INVENTORY WE GO FOR CLOSE QUARTERS WITH THE KNIFE

>>7594378
>>7594381
>>7594372

Hopeless anger overwhelms you, and in a fit of fury you draw and throw your combat knife. He dodges once more, and smiles.

Time slows. You see the dust from his horse as it rises from the pounding hooves. You see the spittle dripping down his chin. You see the hate in his eyes, the insane, godless hate.

The axe rises. Air crackles. What appears to be a small finger, an angel's touch, rises from the head of the weapon.

God is in the storm.

All is white, and the smell of burning flesh invades your nostrils.

-------

You wake up, hungry. Night has just fallen, and the carnage of your battle surrounds you. Two leatherskins wander aimlessly, and the scorched corpse of the last Wastehound stains the beautiful Wasteland dust.

There is a faint glow to the far north, just beyond the horizon.

>>7594544
collect any and all supplies.

axe off the heads of all corpses

gather all remaining mounts.

whats the addition to inventory?

>>7594544

IT APPEARS THAT WE ARE A LATENT PSYKER.
WE HAVE A LIBRARIANSHIP IN OUR FUTURE, BROTHERS!

CONSUME OUR ENEMIES' FLESH AND BRAIN-MATTER.
PERHAPS WE HAVE MEMORY_RECOVERY GENESEED AUGMENTATIONS, TOO.

>>7594566
After looting the corpses, this is your inventory:

Inventory:

Duster outfit (coat, boots, shirt, pants, socks)
Wide-brimmed hat
Rifle, chambered for .30-06 ammunition
.30-06 rounds (11)
.22 revolver
Combat knife
Drinking tin
Wine
Rag
Sketchpads
Map Pieces (Hatred's Heart and Anger's Soul)
Useless map
Candle (3)
Sheets
Diary

New things:
9mm pistol - You think it holds around 8 rounds of ammunition, It's empty.
Axe (2) - These are crude and hefty, and a dog icon has been burned onto the iron heads.
Your spear shattered in the Wastehound's chest, the ancient wood was unable withstand the blow of the attack.
Jerky (3) - You don't know what kind of meat this is, but you assume its safe to eat.

>>7594634
consume some jerkey and examine maps.

what is the northern glow?

>>7594544
WE RAGE AT THE DEUS EX MACHINA.
WE LEAVE THE PLANET TO EXTERMINATUS.

>>7594687
THE VOX IS BROKEN YOU CANNOT LEAVE.

LET US UNLEASH UNHOLY RAGE UPON THIS LAND UNTIL WE FIX IT.

>>7594664
You consume one ration of the jerky and sit to examine your maps. Though the northern shred of your incomplete map is missing, you recall that the northern location was where the bleeding eye emblem was marked.

From what you can tell, the church is the location nearest to you, though Anger's Soul is not much further away.

>>7594687
You didn't know there was anything beyond the Wastes. What's a planet?

Saging the two-person quest of railroads and Deus-Handhold.

>>7594719
just bear with it for now


to angers heart

>>7594687
SO WE CAN WRECK SOME SHIT UP THERE.

Despite some troll threads, /tg/ does not actually believe that Jesus will save anyone. Quest has no challenge, and is messiah masturbation.

>>7594811
>>7594750
so...what?

I don't care that much...but I find this entertaining.

>>7594828
>>7594811
>>7594757
>>7594750

(So are we to metagame or do we depart for Anger's Soul?)

>>7594853
Neither, Heretic.

>>7594853
since no-one else really seems to care...

depart.

>>7594883
You collect your supplies and leave, packing your food, drink, and miscellaneous items onto the spare leatherskin.

---

It is deep night now. As you near the low hill, you realize that this "Anger's Soul" appears to be a building partially reclaimed by the Wastes. Signs of habitation are void from the perimeter, however.

>>7594957
ride around it at distance, describe the building.

>Signs of habitation are void from the perimeter, however.
it has a clear perimeter? is it a fence a wall or something else?

>>7594957
Circle the perimeter, look to see if there's anything we missed.

>>7595020
>>7594997

You make another circuit around the hill, and find that there are four entrances at each of the cardinal directions. There are no fences, nor are there any signs beyond that of the normal Wasteland dust and rock and scrap metal debris.

>>7595077
approach an entrance.

is there a door or just a hole in the wall?

>>7595077
Enter from the East. Have the rifle ready.

>>7595114
>>7595112
You dismount and approach the east entrance, rifle ready and senses sharp, and find a symbol on the door. It looks strangely familiar, but you cannot remember where you've seen it before.

>>7595167
try the door.

if its locked take an axe to it.

>>7595167
Knock on door; just because we're in super-hell doesn't mean we shouldn't be polite. That said, once we've knocked step back a bit and aim the rifle at the door in case something nasty happens.

>>7595196
...but then can we take an axe to it?

>>7595196
>>7595176

You gently knock on the metal door, and it swings open, revealing impenetrable gloom inside. There are faint noises emanating from within, but you can't tell if they are mechanical or organic, positive or negative.

Your rifle feels very comforting right now.

light a candle and walk inside slowly.

>>7595237
How dark is it in there? Can we see at all if we let our eyes adjust?

Don't want to lose the element of surprise.

>>7595269

It appears there is a faint blue light permeating the inside of the structure. You're not sure how effective your sight would be in it, but it appears you could at least navigate clear paths.

>>7595309
OK then, walk inside slowly, looking out for any movements or sounds. Keep rifle at the ready.

>>7595309
so...just dark enough that stuff can lurk.
proceed with candle ready.

we do have a way to light the thing right?

>>7595330
candle is unlit by the way, just ready to light.

>>7595330
>>7595322
You keep the candle close to grip, but lighting it would still take several seconds at least.

Your first step echoes quietly in the darkness. The floor beneath your feet is smooth and hard, much different than the dust of the Wasteland. The sounds grow slightly louder when you enter.

>>7595396
but [the sound is] no more distinct, if there is a source of the light approach it carefully.
if not then proceed along the wall to the left.

>>7595431
You lean into the wall at your left, and the cold feel of bars causes you to flinch slightly. The light seems to get slightly stronger as you stalk further down the hall, your boots echoing against the floor.

The sounds begin to sound more organic, but its impossible to tell if they're being made by animal, leatherskin, or human.

You come to an intersection of two halls. Straight ahead, the light fades into complete shadow. To the right, it grows brighter, and the noises seem louder to the left. You judge that you've walked about a quarter of the way through the building.

>>7595524
turn right, proceed.

>>7595524
Go right.

>>7595555
A quick right turns you to another hall. Something crunches under your feet, but you can't appear to pick out what it is you're stepping on in the gloom.

The hall proceeds for a few hundred yards, then opens abruptly into a huge rectangular chamber sunk deep into the earth. Hundreds of thousands of cells ring the walls, all quiet and dark. Hundreds of blue-white lights burn above the cells, illuminating their entrances while obscuring their contents.

A quick glance down reveals what you've been stepping on: human teeth.

(And I'll call it a night here. I'm pulling from stuff like House of Leaves, The Road, Mad Max, and I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream. And I was vaguely annoyed that the quest didn't devolve into masturbation-it would have been interesting.)

>>7595772
see you at a latter time then

>>7595772
Why would it devolve into masturbation? Also, hate? Let me tell you about hate...

>>7595790
That would be Sunday.

>>7595807
You're playing a woman.

>>7595820
so that wasn't a joke!
and that should matter why?

>>7595849
Because this is /tg/. And besides, it really hasn't come up or been given any importance, I doubt anyone other than those of us from the first thread even knew it.

But OP if you want to write porn there's a monster girl writing thread going on.

>>7595885
HEY! I wrote those rules. PORN IS NOT REQUIRED...

but I've been thinking about pulling a switch on the chart I use...
