Go on.

Sorry. Old thread here;

>>18961248

It got caught up and an autosage before it could really begin. I will re-post everything.

>This chart should easily explain what kind of freak you've been born as. Of course, it is a highly mutable life-form, so what you begin as and what you end up as can be unrecognizable.

>Whenever you perform an action - roll 4D6. 1-2 is a -. 3-4 is nothing. and 5-6 is a +. The more +s you have the better, and the more -s you have is horrible.

>For weeks you have been tracking Randros - an Aughound. You're pretty sure that he has recently drank some tainted water as he seems to be weakening. Your bodies are low on biogel and you need to go in for the kill soon.

This is your enemy. So far we should have 2 freaks to combat him. I'm looking for 2 more.

If you want to participate, roll a D100 and post a name for your freak. Then consult the chart.

>>18961585
Why not roll 4d3-6?

rolled 89 = 89

>>18961594
Rollin'

>>18961601

I don't understand what you're asking me.

>>18961604

Welcome aboard, pissed off human freak.

rolled 6, 4, 4, 2 = 16

OURO BEGINS HIS DEDICATION TO KHORNE(as per the usual) AND LOOKS FOR WEAPONRY

Repostan my dude form the bugged thread.

Jensen here.
Have to leave for an hour or two, will join the party later, i guess?

I'm the fragmented flier, My names will be Ralph and Ernie. Two personalities in one body. One hates heights the other can't stand to be on the ground at any time.

>>18961616
Instead of rolling 4d6 where 1-2 is -, 3-4 0 and 5-6 + you can instead roll 4d3-6 as this will have the same outcome. If you roll a 1 (33%) you get -1, if you roll a 2 (33%) you get 0 and if you roll 3 (33%) you get 1.

It's the simple equation of emulating Fudge dice in a normal diceroller.

>>18961631
It's not bugged, it's mods tagging (quest) threads to auto sage for no reason.

rolled 2, 1, 3, 3 + 6 = 15

>>18961644
and of course I mess up my demonstration

rolled 6, 5, 5, 2 = 18

>>18961631

Stix attempts to scout the hill for their target.

>>18961664
Ah, /tg/ doesn't do negatives, good to know. Forget I said anything.

>>18961629

You do nothing. Your weapons are on your body. That's all you will have for now.

>>18961643

I love it.

>>18961644

Maybe a bit too complicated for me.

>>18961652
/v/ here, could you send the mods our way? We're dying over here, got non-vidya out the ass and nobody taking care of it.

rolled 2, 6, 5, 2 = 15

Ralph decides to scout ahead of Randros looking for a good ambush spot. Ernie protesting every moment they are in the air.

>>18961672

I worded that poorly. What I meant was that Stix climbs the fleshy hill and attempts to scout for their target from the high vantage point.

>>18961672

And you see him, he seems tired and sick. You're there with Stix, hop and Ralph (maybe Ernie). Jensen seems to be away, and this will be a 4 man-fight. We need to look for a 4th member that isn't an alter ego.

rolled 42 = 42

lets do dis.

>>18961703

welcome.

The fight can begin now. I actually forgot about Ouro, so looks like we have 5. But a True-bred would to best not to get himself killed.

Randros seems vulnerable. But they say the death-throws of a creature can be more dangerous - it feels it will die soon and is willing to take down others with it.

>>18961699

Stix attempts to flank the beast, while staying hidden of course.

rolled 4, 1, 1, 1 = 7

Ralph dive-bombs Randros, hoping to at the very least stun it.

rolled 5, 5, 6, 1 = 17

>>18961728

Forgot mah roll

>>18961736

Randros does not notice you because;

>>18961732

Ernie takes over mid-crash and panics that close to the ground. You end up missing by a few feet and you seem to stir the beast from its slumber. You've suffered a broken leg and a cracked rib and your body is howling in pain.

Randros stands up and turns to you.

rolled 7 = 7

Oh dear christ. Do you people realize what this place means?

Dogworld can't be far away.

Also, rolling :3

rolled 5, 4, 3, 2 = 14

Ernie tells Ralph this is all his fault and we're going to die because you just had to go flying didn't you? You couldn't consider others opinions and thoughts.

We attempt to lead the thing over an eye to pop it while limping away.

rolled 5, 4, 5, 6 = 20

>>18961754

Stix attempts to aid his comrade by jumping behind Randos and stabbing it's eyes with his long bony fingers.

rolled 2, 1, 5, 5 = 13

>>18961777

The beast Screams and curses.

"Two fountains in a Pond? None can stave the Darklings!"

Aug-hound aren't known for making sense. Who knows, this could be a lucid moment.

Randros turns to Stix and Lets out a spray of acid.

>>18961757

We're good for now. Plus, all you would have is the 'Mute' flaw. We might be accepting new freaks soon, but not quite yet.

rolled 5, 6, 5, 6 = 22

Both Ernie and Ralph turn as one and begin to beat the creature with their powerful wings.

((Cmon gimme one success!))

rolled 5, 5, 2, 4 = 16

>>18961810

> 2, 1, 5, 5

The spray of acid misses stix, but he accidentally steps in a little, burning his Toe. Other than that, he is unscathed.

>>18961821

The small barbs on your wings slice and scar the creature in your whirl-wind. It seems you two can work together! You manage to sever one of his arms, which now hangs on by the thread of sinew.

Randros is in his last few minutes of life, and he attempts to escape.

rolled 4, 5, 6, 5 = 20

>>18961821

Using the distraction caused by Earnie and Ralph, Stix launches another attack. He attempts to plunge his long fingers through the large blood vein that is bulging from the beast's backside.

rolled 1, 1, 1, 5 = 8

>>18961721

Dfaghn bursts out from the hiding. A tall creature with a massive left arm but an extremely weak and fragile right. He attempts to ambush Randros from an undefended flank

>>18961851

what the flying fu-

Have some music from the original giegerverse threads.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lur1xUKHt1U
This tune worked as a great inspiration for me at least.

>>18961848

Blood Gushes from the Giant and its face pales.

"Et tu! Darklings........"

He is gone now, and you can rest up. The flyer seems the most beaten up.

>>18961851

Dfaghn runs after the beast and slams into him. He feels the victory is his, but he didn't know that Randros was dead just seconds before he got there.

The beast bleeds biogel - an important ingredient for healing and accepting augments.

You may also attempt to fit his acid-spitting aug to your body. You will need to roll for it, and attempting to do so without the biogel, and even with it, could have a bad effect.

rolled 3, 4, 3, 4 = 14

Ralph grins and tries for the the acid spitter. He takes as much biogel as possible. Ernie doesn't protest.

>>18961908

Dfaghn cheers and howls, then realizes that most of the wounds had been caused by others. Sheepishly, it hangs it's head down, allowing others to claim the spoils they have rightfully earned first.

Average roll is average.

rolled 1, 6, 3, 1 = 11

>>18961908
>>18961925

Stixi angrily protests Ralph gulping up all the biogel, when he, at least in his opinion, did all the work at killing the aughound.

Stix attempts to take what he sees is rightfully his, that is large amount of biogel as well as the acid spitter.

>>18961925

The tubes attach and it slowly begins to alter your stomach. You begin over-producing acid and it causes you to feel nauseous. You can spit acid, but because the biogel went towards attaching the augment, your leg did not fully heal.

You all begin frantically looking for flesh sacs and bone cups to hold the gel. As of now you have 3 more units of it. It would do you well to save it.

rolled 5, 6, 1, 5 = 17

Ralph and Ernie uses one unit to heal further then stores the rest.

Ralph then grins at the others then begins to try and wrestle pieces of meat away from the beast. "Time to eat!" He exclaims loudly.

"What ... No! I hate augmented flesh." Ernie tries to stop Ralph.

((rolling to eat flesh))

>>18961951

The acid-spitter is already attached to the R&E. There is much other material left. Bones for weapon-making, flesh for armor, and a large tentacle.

You will have to roll for crafting new equipment, if you choose to do so.

And if you have not submitted a sprite, I would like one. Just something basic. And it seems we just have 3 real players, where are the other 2?

>>18961972

The flesh, despite Ernie's protest, is safe to eat and the gel heals your leg.

You now have two units left.

>>18961978

Noticing that some of the remains are still up for the taking, Dfaghn attempts to take some of the longer bones and the large tentacle in order to fashion a grappling hook.

>Yeah I was late because I got distracted. Here to focus on the game now though.

rolled 6, 1, 3, 5 = 15

>>18961978

Stix tries to grab what he can, he consumes as much biogel as possible, along with tearing away the claws and the tentacle of the creature. He attempts to graft the claws to his other arm, and the tentacle to the second arm.

rolled 3, 2, 4, 1 = 10

>>18961998

>DERP wrong syntax. I don't participate in many quest threads at all.

>>18961998

roll for it.

rolled 3, 2, 2, 5 = 12

Happy with the sprayer Ralph lets the others use what they can. If there are bones left over he attempts to make a hard bone glove to aid in divebombing attacks,

>>18962002

The parts stick and are now yours. But I imagine your group won't be too happy with you consuming the last of the gel.

>>18962005

The tentacle has been stolen from you. (sorry, bad roll).

Randros's Body starts to meld with the environment. Bones stretch, muscles pop, and he seems almost alive again, but docile and immoble. Small cells begin to form, big enough for the freaks to live/sleep in.

This could be home, at least for a while. And it may even continue to expand.

rolled 4, 3, 3, 5 = 15

>>18962043

Is it approaching night time? Also, submitting sprite of As'Dfaghn

>>18962021

>But I imagine your group won't be too happy with you consuming the last of the gel.

Well, I guess they'll just have to cope with it.
It's a doggy dog world out here.

Stix attempts to investigate the morphing carcass of the beast.

(question, how much are you implementing from the giegerverse threads. Are the noble houses for example present or the vatmother guilds?)

rolled 3, 4, 5, 4 = 16

Ralph begins to hop from leg to leg, Letting his wings twitch as begin on the ground for so long gets to him. He turns to the others and asks "What now? Should we head back?" Without listening for a response he begins to climb up the new base. Getting ready to lift off. Ernie sighs and relents "I hate flying. Lets just get this over with then we're staying on the ground for hours. You hear me Ralph? Hours!"

Ralph lifts off again and flies circles above the rest of the group. (( roll for looking for anything unusual ))

"If you break a limb I am going to find a way to kill you." the faint voice of Ernie drifts down.

rolled 1, 5, 3, 1 = 10

>>18962099

Again dammit!

This is your home now, It's begun spewing out meatlings (food), and the blood tastes clean.

For a freak this is Bliss. Decent protection, and the city hasn't grown large enough to attract those who would set out traps. But Bliss in these lands is temporary.

Within the beast, you hear a steady pounding of a strong heart. The sound of this, and you know, keeps aughounds away.

((sprite))

>>18962106

You see nothing from your vantage point, Flesh seems to stretch for miles. You do see a dark hole not to far from your new camp.

>>18962099

>(question, how much are you implementing from the giegerverse threads. Are the noble houses for example present or the vatmother guilds?)

They exist, but I wanted to focus of this thread to be a young city.

>>18962107

You find nothing dangerous.

rolled 6, 3, 5, 2 = 16

Updated sprite, along with his properties.

After resting for a while, Stix attempts to scout the premises of their new base.

>>18962174

Boy, do I keep forgetting things.

rolled 1, 4, 5, 4 = 14

Dfaghn makes a mental note of this "settlement", and offers to scout ahead of the wastes for materials or prey to obtain further biogel.

Content for now Raph lets Ernie land them. They tell the others of the strange hole they spotted and recommend they check it out tomorrow.

They head into their new abode and look for a palce to sleep. Ralph wants a place as far up as possible while Ernie wants someplace safe. As its Ernie's turn they settle in a nook and quickly fall asleep.

Before heading to the hole Ernie and ralph head to the small city to see what they can trade in for the bio-gel they have.

>>18962193

You find nothing. But you do notice the dark hole in the landscape the Ralph told you about.

>>18962220

The biogel is in your body, you don't want to trade that in, it would not have good results.

Here's a picture of the gang, how cute!

rolled 2, 3, 5, 1 = 11

Stix attempts to cautiously investigate the dark hole.

I vote we examine the hole today, something so close to us is a tad worrying.

rolled 6, 6, 6, 1 = 19

We also examine it. "We walk Ralph."

"But Ernie."

"You got to fly last night so we walk. We agreed remember?"

"Oh fine."

>>18962255

You poke your head in the hole and a creature pops out. It is dark and doesn't seem to happy on the surface.

Voices call out unfamiliar names and words as you see flickers of writhing bodies.

As you withdraw your head you see a myriad of red glowing eyes. You are unsure if the creatures are friendly or not. But if it's the latter, it might not be a good idea to fight them in the dark.

>>18962275

One of the creatures climbs out at attacks you.

It seems eager and stupid and with your new augs you coat it in acid.

It is dead now, it's blank red eyes glaring back at you. Your growing city could use more biomass, and there is a small mouth at the top if it, waiting for new genetics.

rolled 3, 4, 6, 6 = 19

Ernie immediately connects what the Aug-Hound was talking about with ... these. Darklings. We should retreat and set a night watch from now on. Ralph tries to grab one and immediately launches in the air .

rolled 6, 5, 6, 5 = 22

>>18962290

Stix retreats few steps from the hole, and then flings his recently acquired tentacle into the hole in an attempt to capture one of the small critters.

>>18962334

You pull out a dark meatling. It is easy to carry and defenseless. It doesn't carry any important augs, but would make great city-food.

Upon further examination you find a few chips of what you know as brown gold. It is soft and malleable, and unliving! You've heard talk of 'wood' could this be it? And if it is, is there more?

rolled 3, 2, 6, 6 = 17

>>18962290

Dfaghn tries to lure one of them out, and grapples with them with his one good arm to subdue it.

>>18962373

After a brief struggle, you bag one too, but you covet stix for finding the brown gold.

After you head home and feed the mouth, you wake up the next day to find the city has grown. You can see thick, veiny root-like appendages stretching deep into the ground. Let us hope this doesn't upset anything living below.

rolled 6, 2, 2, 4 = 14

>>18962360

Wood is valued by the Nobles and other wealthy folks who care for useless but rare stuff like it! Stix attempts to hide his discovery, as he plans to trade the splinters for something valuable.

rolled 3, 4, 1, 1 = 9

>>18962388

Dfaghn tests the appendage growing upwards' strength, as well as practicing his own climbing skill, and attempts to act as a tower sentry above for the settlement

>>18962404

well that ain't good.

>>18962393

As you attempt to hide it, Dfaghn gets a brief glimpse.

>>18962404

Your terrible balance causes you to stumble as you climb the structure. You do get some height, but not without a bruise or two.

How far away is the bigger city? There is no one here, to which Stix could sell the brown gold.

rolled 2, 5, 5, 3 = 15

Ralph wings his way to the nearby city to investigate rumors these Darklings. Earnie does the talking as he is marginable better at it. They also listen for rumors of aug-hounds and jobs available.

>>18962462

It would not take people long to hear of a new city, and actively searching for nobles might not end well. That small amount of coin could save your life one day.

The city's roots are stretching deeper and you begin to hear faint voiced below you. The darklings do not sound happy.

rolled 3, 1, 2, 1 = 7

While the others roam outside, Dfaghn remains vigilant and keeps guard at home.

At the same time, he continues practicing climbing with one good arm until it becomes as natural as walking to him.

rolled 5, 6, 3, 1 = 15

Stix continues to hunt the darklings, in hopes of finding even more brown gold.

>>18962514

>rolled 3, 1, 2, 1 = 7

God bless this little guy. In the distance, while attempting to climb, he spots a small squad of darklings.

Their shambling bodies seem maladjusted to the surface world but they are coming for you. Something in your city is disturbing them.

They do not seem interested in making peace, and one seems more aggressive than the others.

>>18962492

unfortunately while you were away, the news and rumors are coming to you. And since the closest city was not your home, they asked an admission fee that you could not pay.

rolled 2, 3, 6, 3 = 14

On our way back we pass over the darkling horde and attempt to spray them with acid.

>>18961564

Holy shit this picture reminded me of that one creepypasta from /x/ featuring a guy weaking up in a world made out of dogs, drinking blood to survive and digging into the earth through bones and spines.

rolled 2, 1, 1, 6 = 10

>>18962557

Rush down and man the fortifications! Dfaghn charges valiantly at a darkling and attempts to throw him back at his cronies.

>>18962617

rolled 1, 2, 3, 4 = 10

>>18962557

Stix attempts to grab the darklings with his tentacle, pull them closer and maim them with his claws.

>>18962587

Your spray coats one of the darklings in acid and it writhes on the ground in pain. It attempts to crawl toward the city, but it drowns in the stream of blood.

3 left.

>>18962598

Dogscape, yeah I've heard of it. This world is kinda like that, except the creatures that live here are well adjusted to this life.

>>1896262 2
I think the dice are trying to kill all of us.

rolled 5, 4, 1, 5 = 15

Dive and snatch one up into the air and drop it once high enough.

>>18962617

You've been bitten, and it hurts way more than it should.

>>18962623

As you grab one with your tenacle, one of the darklings jumps and hits you in your exposed chest. Just a bruise, but it made you lose your grip.

While the 2 darklings are struggling with you two, the berserker is rushing towards the city itself.

>>18962640

You grab one and begin flying and it is struggling. It manages to slip out of your grasp before you get high enough, it falls and breaks enough in its body to become immobile. It is still alive, but not much of a threat.

rolled 5, 3, 1, 3 = 12

>>18962651

RIP AND TEAR! STRANGLE THE FUCKERS! THEIR BLOWS AGAINST MY CHITINOUS BODY WILL ONLY CAUSE PAIN IN THEM!

Rolling to gut one of the fuckers with my claws, as well as throwing the other at the berserker with my tentacle.

rolled 1, 4, 5, 3 = 13

Ernie insists we land, Ralph obligies and they spit out as much acid as possible at the 'zerker.

rolled 4, 5, 3, 3 = 15

>>18962680

Dfaghn bares his teeth (or an equivalent of that action) and helps Nad out by lending his strength to hurl the darkling at the Berserker.

rolled 5, 5, 4, 2 = 16

>>18962680

The one is gutted and Flayed and as you attempt to throw him, your bruise begins acting up, you miss the crazed one, but hit the one dropped by the flyer. All that remains is the berserker and he begins wailing on the city.

>>18961564

The acid hits him, but it does not phase him in the least.

>>18962703

The darkling strikes the city wall causing a bit of blood to gush out, but not a lethal amount. The city makes an audible scream as this happens, and its heart begins to beat faster.

rolled 4, 5, 1, 4 = 14

Ralph and Ernie turn to their greatest weapon. They begin to beat the zerker with their wings, not wishing to harm their home with acid.

rolled 36 = 36

Rolling for mutant creation.

rolled 1, 2, 5, 1 = 9

"Stop him!" Dfaghn cries out as he charges with his good arm, attemping to knock over the Berserker.

rolled 3, 3, 3, 1 = 10

Stix attempts to constrict the berserker from behind with his tentacle.

((Might as well accept him, our #4 never showed up))

>>18962740
>>18962747

The creature is bound and thrashing. I suggest he have someone go in for the kill.

>>18962745

In the midst of the battle, the city's meatling vat produces a brute with valuable augs (what do you want these augs to be?). For now this has gone on unnoticed.

rolled 2, 3, 4, 6 = 15

We lean over the 'zerker and pour acid on his head.

The party seems to struggle with the last darkling after dispatching the other 3 so easily.

>perhaps our new arrival should attempt to finish the job?

rolled 58 = 58

>>18962773

Hrm... Since I'm a brute, how about a bony blade arm? Something like an executioners axe.

Sorry sorry. Father attacks the final darkling by lunging at him arms raised.

These rolls are so mediocre. No wonder we're taking a while to kill it.

>>18962815

Really are. I am disappoint.

>>18962802
>>18962787

Good enough for me. The squad of darklings is fallen, and the party is introduced to a new Freak known as Father.

The corpses of the darklings can be fed to the city, the only useful augment they carry is their eyes, which can see in the dark.

The berserker leaks biogel, the source of its rage. But only one unit.

Your city grows with the biomass left from the corpses.

rolled 6, 6, 6, 6 = 24

Stix attempts to pull the creature to the ground with his tentacle, so that they could finally kill the bastard.

At least I didn't break any limbs this time hah.

>>18962850

>dat roll.

Shame that I wasted it.

rolled 5, 3, 2, 5 = 15

>>18962848

Dfaghn liberates the corpses of their eyes before feeding the rest of it to the living structure. He then attempts to augment himself with these eyes, under the pretense that they'll make him a far better guard next time, especially if the darklings choose to assault in the dark.

rolled 5, 6, 2, 6 = 19

>>18962848

Father travels to the land eye and inspects it for points of removal. The hope is to remove it and connect it to our city as a guard eye, so we can perhaps have a better chance at seeing coming darklings

rolled 3, 6, 2, 5 = 16

We investigate the 'zerker to determine what exaclty made it so resilent. Then we turn to Father.

Ralph sticks out a hand "Well done my friend, you do know how to make an entrace.I'm Ralph"

"Indeed. And I'm Ernie. You have my thanks." Ernie puts forth their other hand.

>>18962850

>dem sixes

This is the official way the darkling died. That picture, that roll.

5 star post!

rolled 6, 3, 6, 5 = 20

Stix allows his comrades to loot the bodies for augs and biogel, as he is more interested in the possibility of finding more splinters of brown gold in the corpses.

Rolling for finding moar wood.

>>18962878

Father replies with a grunt, "I am Father. The thought is... Appreciated."

>>18962872

You get D3 eyes to stick.

>>18962874

The giant Land-eye would be a struggle for anyone else, but with your brute strength you pluck it from the ground with ease. You will need to use that one unit of biogel to attach it to the city.

rolled 3, 3, 4, 1 = 11

Ralph and Ernie also take an eye and attempt to augment themselves. They use one of the two biogel they have stored to aid their efforts.

rolled 5, 6, 1, 6 = 18

I support using the 'zerkers gel to augment our city.

rolled 1 = 1

Noticing the massive brute that the building had constructed, Dfaghn can only wonder whether he was the byproduct of self defense from the building. Perhaps it still had a mind of it's own?

rolled 5, 6, 3, 3 = 17

>>18962914

Sweet.

Father brings the land eye back and requests a biogel from one of his comrades, likely, Ernie/Ralph>>18962916.

Rolling for eye augmentation of our city.

>>18962878

>We investigate the 'zerker to determine what exaclty made it so resilent.

It seems the biogel affects darklings in a strange way, making them crazed. Upon further inspection you notice a gland on his brain that seems to be enlarged.

>>18962909

You find a single other splinter.

rolled 6, 4, 3, 4 = 17

Before his comrades fed the corpses to the structure, Dfaghn requests to flay their skins so that he may sew cloaks for warmth.

>captcha: MaUnion when

Nice to see you back Aether.
Looks like the slots for this game are full. Maybe another time.
Still looking forward to the other quest.

>>18962930

One of the eyes sticks, but it doesn't seem to fit anywhere else but the tip of one of your wings. A strange place for it, but you can still see with it.

rolled 2, 6, 5, 4 = 17

To punish the darklings for the raid we swing over the hole and spew acid.

Hey man, roll up a character if you want to play, I won't stop you.

Also, Father, wanna make me a sprite?

>>18962968

Terrible noises emerge from the hole. It seems they learned their lesson. Their fallens' mistake will not be made by the others.

I shall. Just give me a short bit.

In the mean time Father rests, despite his brutish nature he tires easily from carrying the bone axe.

rolled 4, 3, 4, 6 = 17

>>18962932

Stix attempts to carve himself a personal chamber inside the developing city.
A rich freak has to live up to his wealth after all.

rolled 1, 1, 4, 1 = 7

Dfaghn is remarkably pleased with the robes, and hands them out to his fellow mutants. Perhaps this was the birth of identity?

>>18962981

Fuck yeah poorly drawn arm axe thing.

Also some weird cornrows for shits and giggles.

A flesh crafter, nice our group is coming together. Two brutes, a lanky, a flier and now a flesh-crafter.... though the lumps don't exaclty inspire confidence in his abilities.

Ernie accepts the cloak with thanks. "Finally something to wear!" Ralph wonders if they will get in in the way of flying. "Even better."

>>18963007

Father is pleased with the gift though it is too small for his upper body, instead he wraps it around his waste in a sort of lioncloth like fashion. He grunts his approval.

>>18963035

Look on the bright side, Ralph. If you can fly with that, you'll be our goddamned batman.

rolled 3, 4, 5, 1 = 13

>>18963044

New picture including Lioncloth and a bit of a resize of the original picture.

Now, rolling to connect with the city and attempt to see through the eye

((sprite w/ cloak))

And of course I would forget it.>>18963078

Okay, tumorous and boney shell.
Bernard. I'm just liking the sound of that name right now.
He's a big guy covered in lumpy plates of bone.
Just need an introduction into the game.

Off in the Distance you see a gargantuan beast approaching. The eye spots it and the city makes a muffled grunt. As the creature gets closer it winces in pain. As you look on it, you see a small freak on the head of this thing, melded with the body of what appears to be a lobotomized aughound. The Freak speaks in a 20's announcer voice;

"Gentlemen! Gentle things? Look I can't come any closer, Vince will not allow it! I see you seem to be men of wealth?With fine cloaks like that, you would have to be! If you're looking to trade, I'm your guy! Trade me an eye and I'll tell you a lie!"

If you can trust him or not is unclear. But that hulking amount of biomass looks like a fitting addition to your city.

>>18963092

The TL;Dr version is you live in a land made of flesh and bone. To find anything non-living is nearly unheard of. We began by fighting a beast known as an 'aughound' - these are freaks who have acquired so many augmentations that they went insane.

A freak is a person or human. No 2 are alike and are normally a result of a city spitting out thousands and thousands of useless creatures, and some of these tend to be useful members of society.

The aughound that was killed became our city and now we live inside it. The goal not is to let the city grow and form a new home.

rolled 2, 2, 2, 4 = 10

Ralph tries out his wings, testing it with the cloak "Whatcha got?" Ernie asks, as they land next to the strange being knowing the only one with tradable items is the good Stix. They look over the newcomer and its beast to judge its strengths and weaknesses,

Dfaghn seems easily amused by the trader, however, he does not have anything to offer, though he does spare a glance to Nad, as if trying to ask him to be the negotiator.

>>18963092
Oh wait, read that wrong. Tumorous flesh crafter.
His name's still Bernard.

rolled 1, 4, 3, 5 = 13

>>18963110

Father winces in a degree of pain the city must have experienced. He dislikes the hulking abomination that is before them. He readies for a charge to cute the beast legs out from under him if something should go wrong.

Ralph then reminds Ernie that they have the rest of the eyes from the darklings. That should fetch something at least. Though it would have to be a group decision.

rolled 6, 1, 6, 2 = 15

Stix makes the robe into a scarf/poncho like thing. He also attempts to modify it so that he can carry stuff in it.

>>18963110

Stix is curious about the wares of the merchant. He starts browsing through the products the trader has for sale. He readies himself to haggle like there is no tomorrow.
(Could I get a lits of his wares?)

And finally did you miss my roll here:>>18963003

(( a list of what we have to trade would be good too))

>>18963201

Well, we do have the splinters, but Stix is a greedy fellow, so he'll part with them only if there is no other thing to sell. Then there is the cloaks were just made, propably some leftover parts from the darklings and if nothing else won't do, we can just chop off our own parts.

"You all seem conflicted!" The Trader speaks

"Look, maybe I'll get the ball rolling and this strange guy fluttering around me is a bit unnerving! I got me a good ol' fashion Stamina Gland. Last longer, go harder!"

"B-but it seems you all are more geared toward combat, got a few extra arms, some fine bone crafted weapons, and some leaping legs. Each augment comes with biogel so you can attach it, but fine weapons like this aren't cheap."

"Now that hulk with the bone axe is making me nervous, so let me be clear. The Augs are inside of vince here attached to a putrid-fier. Get any funny ideas and the Augs will kill you when you try to attach them"

rolled 3, 4, 2, 3 = 12

>>18963225

Father would likely disagree with trading anything connected to him, unless it meant an augmented mouth full of shard teeth. Because double mouths all the way.

>>18963003

I read it, and forgot to respond. You carve out a nice little chamber for yourself, with the help of our new flesh-crafting friend.

>>18963233

So, what are we buying?
Stix is currently the one with the "cash" so to speak, but he knows better than to enrage his comrades by buying stuff only for himself.

>>18963233
>>18963177

Father drops his stance at the idea of a Stamina Gland. He grunts at Stix as his bartering skills are far better than his own, "I would have an interested in that Gland. But my Axe stays on me."

Ralph backs off. "Don't worry friend, We're just cautious, had a raid on our dear abode not too long ago. The source of our fine cloaks in fact." Ralph grins. " As to what we have in return to trade how about augs for augs. A handful of dark-seeing eyes. I wouldn't mind an additional arm as you can see both of mine can be occupied by flight."

Ernie chimes in. "That stamina-gland does sound useful.If not for us our friend with the rather large axe could use a bit of staying power. I recomend giving us a good deal. He gets a bit testy. The last being to piss him off lost a head."

Some bone weapons would be good. I don't have the same kind of augmentations for combat like Ralph or Ernie, nor do I have a tentacle like you. At least when you depart for exploration I can handle myself back home.

For now, Stix stays quiet, waiting to see if they can buy what they want without the need for him to expend his precious splinters. He is somewhat interested in the jumping legs, though he doesn't actually need them, as there are no problems with his own legs so far. A second pair of arms would also be quite useful. His current set is a little lacking in dexterity.

>>18963305

"Hmmm. Eyes for arms? Normally I might call you stupid, but these belonged to darklings? Could use some of those myself! Bastards attempted to attack me on my way here, but they seemed half melted and not looking for much of a fight."

"The arms are yours, but they won't exactly match, one's longer than the other, but that's to be expected! The gland stays, it's a little more valuable than arms"

rolled 1, 2, 6, 1 = 10

((Rolling for bargaining. Lets ee if Ralph and Ernie deserve the face spot))

Ernie spits to the side, letting the newcomer see the steam as the acid eats into the fleshy ground. "So how about it. You heard what we want."

>>18963379

"that's a neat trick with the spitting. I've got a few tricks of my own! Think I made it all the way out here with my silver tongue?"

"The deal stays, you want the gland, you gotta pay a little extra!"

((fail fail fail 1 success. nope ))

Deal, Eyes for a pair of arms. Ernie grins as the do the exchange. They nod to the others letting them make their own bargains.

((Quick question, how many eyes did the darklings have each? And how many did I just trade away))

rolled 3, 3, 1, 6 = 13

>>18963412

Stix has learned over his life, that the best way to keep oneself from being gutted and harvested for parts is to avoid unnecessary conflicts.

He quickly chimes in, and informs that he possesses an undefined amount of brown gold shards, that he would be willing to part with, in exchange for the gland. Rolling for haggling.

>>18963459

"BROWN GOLD FOR THE GLAND!"

The trader clears his throat

"I mean um....yeah, seems like a fair trade. Just the gland? Well okay then."

He seems to be speaking faster and sweating

"Sure, one piece of brown gold for the gland. Yup. sounds like a good deal. Wood that be okay? I mean. Yup, let's do it!"

rolled 2, 2, 2, 2 = 8

Ernie turns to the fleshcrafter Bernard to assist him in attaching the new arms. He offers the biogel in exchange thats attached to the arms already and uses the last of the biogel he had stored for attaching them instead.

>>18963450

Seems irrelevant. Everyone who wanted one was fitted with one and you traded you last few, so now there are none. And each darkling had a different amount of eyes, like everything here.

Father has grown slightly bored of the negotiations. He sits and waits by his home hoping for something to kill soon.

Yes I'm still here.

rolled 6, 3, 5, 1 = 15

>>18963514

A shard of brown gold for the gland, with the addition of some nice little bonecraft weapon for my lanky friend here.
Rolling for haggling.

rolled 1, 2, 1, 6 = 10

Hearing the shout he turns back to the trader.

You wouldn`t be trying to rip us off would you friend

((rolling to intimidate))

My rolls, jeesh hope I do better in combat

rolled 3, 2, 5, 2 = 12

Bernard has nothing which he can use for trade, so he's elsewhere trying form a lump of flesh into a small hut to live in.

Rolling in case fleshcrafting doesn't already do the trick.

>>18963558

The Trader seems so fixed on stix that he doesn't even acknowledge you were talking.

>>18963555

"Well, If you're gonna grind me down, I won't fight. Here is a nice finely crafted bone-mace. Sturdy and balanced!"

The Trader's eyes seem to fixate on something beyond the city.

"Well, you all seem satisfied and everyone got away from this happy!"

Guess I better go, I seem to be bothering you all.

And after the exchange the trader and Vince scuttled away.

rolled 4, 2, 4, 3 = 13

>>18963636

Father grunts at the trader as he scuttles off, "Leech." However he does approve of his new gland that he promptly attaches to the back of his neck. Rolling for... Whatever that is.

rolled 6, 6, 6, 6 = 24

Ralph wings up, barely giving themselves time to adjust to the new arms. He looks in the direction the trader had looked before hurrying off. Ernie doesn't protest.

>>18963597

You produce a small lump on the top of the city to live in. And as you look out you see something big approaching. It is terrified of your city's heart-beat, but it wants to come closer.

((that roll the dice gods really do hate me.))

>>18963660

The gland attaches but you feel less in control of it, it seems to act when it wants to.

Stix is grumpy.
He had to waste one of his shards on the others, in his fear that any further arguments between his flying comrade and the trader would have led to violence.

"Dam you all, you better put the stuff I bought you into good use", he proclaims and heads back to his own chamber to sulk.

>>18963669

You see an aughound in the distance. He is Pushing full steam ahead!

rolled 2, 2, 5, 4 = 13

"Ho fellows! Aughound! " Ralph flies to above it and sprays acid.

rolled 6, 1, 1, 2 = 10

>>18963707
>>18963725

"Finally something to kill."

Father roars and charges head first at the aughound. His axe raised and muscles tightened.

rolled 5, 5, 4, 3 = 17

The commotion outside causes Stix to rush out of the fledgling city, so he might aid his comrades.

Rolling for getting into a defensible position in case of a fight.

rolled 5, 3, 3, 6 = 17

>>18963725

The Acid barely hits the beast's Thick skin.

He goes mad with the ringing in his ears from your city's heart. He wants to rip it out!

One single word comes out of his mouth;

"Etrok!"

rolled 4, 5, 6, 4 = 19

Bernard plucks off some tumors and tries to craft them into some sort of ranged weapon to fight this aughound.

>>18963769

The position is yours.

>>18963743

Your swing misses the beast entirely and accidentally lands into one of the city walls.

>>18963774

Etrok pulls off a massive skin layer. The city needs your help!

rolled 2, 4, 3, 1 = 10

"Can you fleshcraft his legs into the ground" Yells Ernie as they dive at the beast with all their consideral speed. Hoping to at least disrupt one of its hopefully vulnerable ears.

rolled 4, 4, 3, 4 = 15

Sensing his home in Danger, Dfaghn finally uses all the training he's done and puts them to use. He immediately flanks the aughound from the side, and begins to attempt climbing onto the aughound while Stix, Ralph/Ernie and father, his teeth biting onto the handle his recently acquired bone mace to keep it from falling.

rolled 6, 4, 2, 2 = 14

>>18963804

Father pulls his blade out of his city feeling its pain alongside his own. He winds up for another hit, aiming for its arms.

Come on rolls don't fail me now.

>>18963803

You've crafted a tumorous dart. It has protruding thick bone spikes and the flesh around it allows it to gnaw at whatever it is thrown at. Now that you know how to craft such a device, you can do so with ease.

rolled 2, 5, 3, 3 = 13

Fuck this noise!

Stix attempts to jump on the back of the creature and to maim it's ears with his claws.

>>18963840

>Assuming I succeed, I help Stix get up so we can inflict massive head trauma.

>>18963805

You get stuck in its ear, plugging it up, and the beast seems slightly pacified. Though the situation is not as nice for you.

>>18963825

You manage to scale the beast, but just barely.

>>18963829

You hit and Etrok jumps back, causing Dfaghn to lose his balance and just barely stay on. Your blade is stuck inside the titan.

>>18963840

You manage to claw its outer ear, shredding it, but it can still hear.

rolled 1, 4, 2, 3 = 10

>>18963871

Displeased. Father roars in further anger. Making the best of his situation he grounds himself while allowing his blade to stick, perhaps it will allow his comrades more time to do the rest of the job.

rolled 5, 3, 6, 2 = 16

>>18963805
Bernard looks at Ernie, to the aughound, to the ground, and to Ernie again. "Are you crazy!"
He throws the dart at the aughound before making another.

rolled 3, 3, 6, 2 = 14

>>18963871

Stix attempts to use his tentacle to help his flying comrade out from the ear.
He also attempts to break the inner ear of the beast by plunging his claws deep into the creatures ear-hole.

rolled 5, 3, 5, 6 = 19

>>18963900

dem rolls

Knowing he is losing his footing Father attempts to activate his Stamina Gland to remedy his poor situation.

rolled 4, 2, 4, 4 = 14

We begin to try and move our way deeper into the beasts ear. Spewing acid as we go.

We shout out.. "Fleshcraft the ears closed. It doesn't like the sound of our homes heart."

rolled 1, 4, 6, 3 = 14

After regaining his balance clinging onto the massive aughound, Dfaghn makes his way to the head of the creature. With his good arm, he takes the bone mace and begins to club the creature's head, attempting to bean it into paste.

rolled 1, 2, 3, 6 = 12

>>18963900

You find yourself being occasionally taken underfoot, letting your feet get crushed.

>>18963901

The dart sticks and begins slowly whirling into it's skull.

Etrok goes after stix for shredding his ear!

>>18963908

You get ernie out, but do not puncture the ear.

>>18963917

The gland begins acting, slowly numbing the pain in your foot. You feel new, like you did when you were first born.

>>18963918
>>18963925

The ears are become slowly closed, but it can still 'feel' the beating of the heart.

rolled 3, 3, 1, 6 = 13

We lift off, again then try once again to divebomb the head hoping to stun it.

rolled 6, 3, 6, 1 = 16

>>18963933

Stix attempts to get the fuck away from the thing.
He jumps from it's back and tries to get it to chase after him, so that it would leave their home alone, and also give an opportunity for the rest of the group to attack it.

rolled 2, 3, 3, 4 = 12

>>18963971

Glorious.

Given this new found energy Father holds down his position. "KILL THE DAMN BEAST BEFORE I LOSE MY FOOTING AGAIN!"

>>18963988

Etrok begins to weaken.

rolled 2, 4, 5, 4 = 15

>>18964001

Furiously continuing his assault upon the creature's cranium, Dfaghn can only yell back a close-to-out-of-breath "WORKING ON IT!"

He was starting to wonder if there were more aughounds out there as hard to kill as this bastard here.

>>18963995

He turns around and begins chasing you.

>>18964001

You swing, but he had already turned around to chase stix. You carve a small slit into his leg.

rolled 6, 5, 2, 3 = 16

We spit more acid at it, aiming for the hole the tumor dart left in its head.

((finally true success))

rolled 6, 5, 3, 2 = 16

>>18964039

Man I am having no luck with this.

Father lunges after the beasts tail and attempts to grab hold. Plan being, grab the thing swing it around and smash it into the ground. And it likely will not happen.

>>18964085

The beast is dazed and woozy. It collapses on the ground, still breathing.

>>18961897
I swear Nad'lun... your art is solid gold, and I can't help but joke (only joke) about having a mancrush on you, or at least your drawings...

In more serious light, where'd you learn to draw like that? I'm an aspiring artist myself and was curious.

>>18964100

you swing and land a blow - crushing the dart and bashing through the pool of acid left by R&E. Etrok is dead.

rolled 5, 1, 2, 5 = 13

>>18964039

As the realization that this might not have been the best possible idea dawns to him, he begins to run as fast as he possibly can, while screaming and flailing erratically.

>>18964127

I know that this sounds Clichéd as fuck, but the only answer I really have is that I learned to draw just by drawing.
I have been drawing stuff my whole life, so naturally I would improve over time.

Although patience is a trait one should have when drawing stuff, as it will take time to make the stuff you imagined transfer to paper/computer screen the way you want to.

rolled 5, 1, 5, 1 = 12

>>18964158

Glorious.

Father unsticks his arm blade and jumps down from the beast. Grunting, "Filthy beast." He grabs hold of its tail and begins to drag it back towards the main city. "When we get this back, I want that tusk."

rolled 6, 4, 2, 2 = 14

>>18964158

Dfaghn finally notices that the creature is dead, and rejoices by standing atop the dead carcass, cheering and whooping. "Looks like we'll all benefit today!"

"Imagine the amount of cloaks we'll be able to make and sell from this beauty...!" Dfaghn whispered to himself, a tear dropping from his black eye.

Alright guys. I think this would be a good place to end it. I want to still upgrade the city with parts of Etrok, and any changes you all want to make to it.

This was a fun game, and I had a blast. Any alterations you want to make, sprites, pics, anything is cool. Suggestions for next game? I was thinking of making all current players part of the city or NPCs.

Vote it up here;

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

But I think we should do this again some time. I want to put some energy into something that isn't the evolution game, as there are a few people cramping my style in that department.

>>18964170

Seeing that the beast is already dead, Stix quickly attempts to regain some of his dignity and starts to walk back towards the fallen beast.

"We should hollow out it's bones so we can store any biogel this beast's innards contain that we don't need right now" he humbly suggests.

"Down." Ernie rasps out.

"Yeah" Ralph lands them and they stumble over to help move the creature. "I think I 've had enough flying today." He smirks though his face is haggard from exhaustion "We done good." He claps the Brute on the shoulder and nods to the rest. Looking over the hulk they just slain "We done good."

>>18964284

Voted, enjoyable game man.

I'd say Father just melded in with the city again. Back from whence he came essentially.

>>18964284

Hooray I can finally sleep!

Oh, Nad, can you draw us a picture of the entire group with the slain aughound like one of those british safari hunt pictures? It will be balls out awesome if you do.

>>18964284

I would love to do this again.
I think it's wonderful that someone, in this case you actually remembered this setting bothered to make a quest about it.

At one point, I had planned of running a quest in this setting myself, but I have been quite daunted by the task recently, as my experiences with running Spider Quest have shown me quite clearly how much effort running a quest takes. Especially in a world as complex as this.
Or at least my idea of this world is very complex.
I fluffed out shitload of stuff relating to the gigerverse/Mundus Carnis in my spare time. Noble houses, other guilds and so on. Unfortunately they are all in my head currently.

But anyways, I liked this quest, and I hope we will revisit our twisted little freaks again.

>>18964353

On it.
I'll do it on paint to keep with the style.

>>18964346

Agreed. If I do another thread He will be a city guard drone.

Also, when I make a new thread I will give you all a heads up. Just shoot me and email at agoorigod@gmail.com if you want me to keep you informed.

I'll be sure to shoot you an email, however I might just find it haphazardly since Uni is out and I'll have no job soon. Anyway, off to work.

>>18964450
No, not yet.

Allowed the city to grow more, feel free to add your own........ additions.

I've always felt pixels are a better medium as I am not a great artist. And quest threads are improved with some kind of draw faggottry.

I would love to see current sprites and I'll keep popping in to read what you've posted, but I've been in the damn chair for 6 hours straight and I need to get the fuck up!

Just for the record, latest char sheet (without loot division yet.)

>>18964574

I like it. Kinda like a rogue.

Sprite made.

Bernard, the "cancer crafter".
Loot: nothing

>>18964748

Loot: Darts and knowledge of them.

Have this everyone.
You people rock, and this was a fun quest.

>>18964811
I was thinking of writing that, but I didn't consider it real loot. I suppose I should make a craft-list.

>>18964830

This is great, man! Truly wonderful!

I also want to compliment everyone on the role-playing that was done. Everyone got very in character and it seemed to be understood to trust no one, accept your flaws, and take what little you can get. I really wish I had a reaction image to suit my feelings.
