You guys not up for questing today?

>>17794180
Do the stuff suggested at the end of the last thread?

>>17794614
Dunno, ever thought about using twitter or a mailing list to kee your regulars up to date about upcoming threads?

>>17794888

The threads start every friday and run until the end of saturday. Maybe into sunday too if I dont have work and you guys are up for it.

>>17794888

also you guys want to continue. You need to pick a door.

rolled 2 = 2

>>17795056
1=west
2=north

Before entering the next room, ask the girls if any of them has been trained for this combat environment or something similar, like boarding actions. If so, we could probably use some advice.

>>17795093

You enter the room to the north. This one is darker than the previous, some sort of film covering the emergency lights. You walk forward cautiously, the catwalk groaning under your feet in protest. It was another flood room but this one was vastly different. There was no black sludge at the bottom of the pit. In fact, you couldn't even see the bottom of the pit. All you could make out was the faint glimmer of... spikes? along the sides. You couldn't be sure.

The walls were also covered in the same film, though it was far thicker the lower it was.

There were four catwalks in front of you, each one smashed. Anyone who could not fly would not be able to cross without assistance.

You could make out the faint outline of several doors on the other side.

>>17795650
Great, it's a sarlac. I don't really want to check if that thing has tentacles or other appendages to snatch things out of the air that are trying to fly across it.

Let's see what's behind the door to the west.

After sharing a nervous glance with your companions, you backtrack, checking the room to the west.

It was a linking room between the two spillways and was fairly well lit. There were several insect daemons here. They ignored you.

The walls here were also slightly coated with the strange substance. You took a closer look. It seemed almost organic. Perhaps the hive was spreading.

A flash of movement caught your eye and you looked to your right. Nothing there... You would have dismissed it as your imagination, but Caramel was looking too.

"Esme... We cannot fight here..." Caramel glanced at you. "I do not wish to disturb these large, passive daemons. They may prove too difficult from an area with such low maneuverability for our ground-based companions."

>>17796023

captcha ate my pic

Ah, was looking for this.

>>17796023
Ah, crap. Well, I guess since we're not looking to start a fight, we might as well just check the other door then to see if it presents a viable means of reaching the hive, and just weld the door shut on this one.

(Also, OP. Would you mind me setting up an IRC chatroom so that way we can have our questers talk and maybe downgrade the chance of them wandering away?)

>>17796150

In case its not clear, I forgot to move the red star dictating your location. Your in the door to the west.

Sorry about that.

I've never set up an IRC chat before, but I wouldn't mind answering questions in one.

>>17796237
Hmm. That complicates things somewhat.

There's no chance of us soloing these bugs by ourselves, is there?

Also, I suppose we could just keep going forward and come back to this later.

Also, it's pretty easy to set up a chatroom. Do you want me to use the suptg irc network or something like mibbit?

>>17796280
I think there's something else in the room. Other than the bugs.

>>17796280

that would work. Just tell me how to join up or send me a link and i'll answer questions there.

Its not that you can't fight in that room. Its that, if you did indeed see something hostile, fighting may disturb the larger daemons.

>>17796337
What manner of larger beasts are we talking about? Deamons we can't see at the moment?

http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/chat.html

Alright, make sure to click allow on the java pop up, and type /join #SOB_Quest and then press enter

Okay, ideas discussed in the chat:

Going back (either now, or once we've finished exploring the sewer systems) to get Fortran and the Eldar Bonesinger and anyone else who might have technical expertise.

Fortran can fiddle with the machinery, and the bonesinger can create a bridge over the pit of spikey death

Using psykic powers to ping whatever it is that's lurking the shadows and could piss off the passive deamons - caveat that the Goo and hives are psykically reactive

Having a deamonic member of the team cast enchant animals on the passive deamons

>>17796551
Well, we might as well just check whatever it is that's out there before proceeding, just to make sure if it poses any threat.

If nothing there, then I think Rodwen Alessa and Elizabeth should proceede forward while Caramel and Esme check out what's on the other side of the death pit

>>17796551
>Using psykic powers to ping whatever it is that's lurking the shadows and could piss off the passive deamons - caveat that the Goo and hives are psykically reactive

Rodwen is probably a lot better suited to this than Esme. Proper training and all that.

>>17796551

well some of those ideas we didn't discuss but any idea will do really.

I'll still be on the IRC server if anyone needs me. Working on the reply now btw

You motion everyone to take a step back, asking Rodwen to check for any psykic disturbances.

Rodwen cracked an eye open. "I am already... And there was something else here but I don't sense it anymore. Perhaps a scout?"

I take it everybody is busy talking on the IRC channel?

>>17797143

Im the only one in it right now. Just waiting for you guys to decide what to do.

>>17797268
A very slow day, it seems.

Anyway, I'd say we close the door leading west again, have Rodwen and Alessa escort Fortran to the machines while Caramel and Esme investigate the doors beyond the pit of death.

>>17797578

I agree. This is a big choice though. We should see if others agree at all

>>17797882
>>17797578
Meh, not that big of a choice. I say do it! Anything to speed up the pace

bump. where is everyone?

>>17799199
>>17797882
>>17797578
Probably asleep at this point. Anyone who sees this- let's try to be here or in the chat about 12:00 chan time on saturday, alright? If nothing else to get our shit together and start moving forward

Sorry guys. I got caught up in some work. i can be here 12 chan time i think. might be a touch later if i oversleep.

Lets kick this into high gear.

>>17799673
Sounds good to me.

nudge

bamp

Im awake now. give me a bit to eat and stuff.

Dear OP:

I've been following Sororitas Quest since...shit, the ship overrun by chaos with those radio issues. Keep on with your awesome adventures!

sup. I'm rearing and ready to go.

Splitting up has advantages and disadvantages etc. you really wanna do that?

Also im still in the IRC chat should you want to ask questions.

>>17803690
As pretty much every suggestion we made that wasn't about moving through the next set of doors resulted in "Your current group is too daft to do that", I'd say yes.

You look back at the group, hesitating before suggesting the split.

"You really think thats a good idea chief?" Alessa readjusted her melta. "We should probably grab the twins too if possible. They know their stuff."

Elizabeth grinned. "More sisters means we can keep the tunnels clear... who knows. Might have a nice barbeque. I, for one, would like to see more of that Living Saint's chainsword... Smiting down daemons with spinning blades and fire..."

Rodwen shot her an odd glance before meeting your gaze. "If you're sure... Be careful Mon-keigh. Remember, do not neglect your abilities."

The three of them turn and slowly go back the way they came. Caramel was standing there, fidgeting with her sword. "I am unworthy for this opportunity Exalted Martyr..."

You cut her off with a wave of your hand, carefully making your way into the next room.

A blast of steam and a putrid odor greeted you, making you take a step back and your eyes water. This room was filled with pipes and vents, all along the walls and some even in the middle of the room. Many had ruptured, leaking acrid steam into the room. Visibility was terrible but you think you could make out a door to the north and a river of sludge to the south.

You glanced down and noticed there was a fleshy growth covering the ground, extending from where you saw the door.

are my questers there? would any lurkers like to give any input?

>>17804845
>any lurkers like to give any input

The other girl and our main char can fly, right? So they should probably investigate the two doors leading north and east beyond the pit.

There's probably something unpleasant to the north-west. So that door shouldn't be opened for the time being.

And always close the doors when leaving a room,, maybe anything potentially following the group isn't smart enough to open them.

Hi, sorry I can't play today guys. I had to make a surprise trip to my parents to celebrate my dad's birthday, and while I'm here I can't really access the computer.

I'll add my two cents and wish you all good luck.

Kill the growth. It's probably another chaos hive spawner.

Go get the other sisters and assorted xenos and coggirls afterwards, but be careful to move in small dispersed groups so as not to draw attention. Keep in constant radio check

>>17805260
Also, yeah, investigate the other side of that bridge before we get the bonesinger.

And open the doors we haven't been into yet!

It seems like you wish to go forward but im not entirely clear. You just split up so that the others could operate anything that you missed. Do you want to continue on or go back and open doors?.

Mind you, this is not a maze. Going through more locations means more resources though as well as bypassing obstacles that you may not want to try to tackle.

I am in the IRC chat still if you have questions.

>>17805512
>see pic

The room to the north-west is something we might want to enter from two sides at the same time. Our non-flying allies from the south, and everybody who can get over the pit from the north. But that's for later, I guess. There are enough doors for us to explore that don't promise an immediate encounter with the enemy.

>>17805660

the doors dont necessarily lead to the same room. That and the pit in that room is probably a giant mouth with tentacles to snatch fliers out of the air. I think we should press on.

And i'm fairly certain that the room with the pit had the same fleshy stuff in it. Only a lot more of it

Damnit! >>17805280 asked me to take over, but I have no idea what's going on.

>>17805660
>>17805991
Investigate the north doors, I guess?

>>17806267

Ah a newcomer then? Welcome. It seems you want to press forward. Working on that now.

You and Caramel begin to move forward, a loud hiss suddenly emanating from your right. You feel a hand grab your arm and pull you back as Caramel yanks you to safety just as a massive tail cracked the ground where you had been only moments before.

A snake daemon rose up, its bioluminescent underbelly catching the steam around it, breaking apart its outline a bit.

"Exalted Martyr! Be cautious! We must strike with precision! Wasted effort could end in wasted life."

She fired up her jump pack and charged, hitting it with a blast from her sonic pistol, stunning it before following up with her sollex blade, shearing off some armor near its neck.

>>17806771
Seems like an easy kill.

>>17807510

its your move. you have a force blade, some psykic abilities, and the wrath of the emperor behind you.

The opponent is huge with poisoned fangs and really REALLY thick, resilient armor.

>>17807929
How big is the room that thing is in, eactly?

>>17808122

Lowish ceiling but room enough to fly. decently sized otherwise. Lot of steam, lots of cover.

>>17808550
Ohhh, let's see if we can lure it into smashing one of the pipes and getting itself boiled by the steam.

>>17808596
More interesting than hitting it until it dies. Any psykic abilities that can help with that?

>>17808641

sky's the limit psykicly. but remember that it is hard to do. dont want to stress yourself too much

>>17808886
Probably better to do it the old fashioned way, then?

Also, it's really getting too late for me. Hopefully this thread will stay alive after I'm gone (which is after I hit reply).

i find this lack of zeal disheartening... I'll wait a little longer to see if anyone wants to bring some faith and fire into the mix.

>>17809107
Sorry OP, I didn't even know the quest was back again. Sadly I don't really have time for more than 10 minutes of 4chan today.

I'll try my best to show up next Friday. Any idea when you'll start?

>>17809259

sometime after noon-ish

bump

Let us hope OP is here tomorrow. I wanna get something done.

Tainted SOBs.. delicious tears

>>17814746
proceed....
