"Actually, there was somethin' I wanted to trade with you," Boss Bawss rumbles thoughtfully, stroking his chin. "But I'm not sure how much use it'll be to you guys..."

The Queen of all Scaratones airily waves a clawed hand. "Brute-warrior Bawss, I am certain that whatever you have to trade us, we will most definitely find a use for-"

"Instant water pebbles, just add water?"

Queen Kilkkarak's hand freezes in midair, and she slowly, slowly turns her head to face Boss Bawss. "... that sounds quite useful," she chitters carefully.

Boss Bawss blinks. "Wot, you guys don't have aquifer pebbles?"

The Queen of all Scaratones takes a moment to compose herself. "Workers draw out moisture from the manure of other creatures when they create the jelly that feeds our people. It is a very painstaking process. We hydrate ourselves, regulate the humidity in our hives, and water our underground crops by having the workers regurgitate the moisture they have collected over long periods of time. And you are speaking of an object that creates endless water, the most precious resource in all the desert," Queen Kilkkarak chitters, sounding faintly light-headed. "Yes, I think we would like that a lot."

The larger ogre scratches his head. "... well, we was also gonna throw in some armor an' food-"

"Armor?" Queen Kilkkarak tilts her head. "Oh! You are referring to the 'clothing' that we have seen some of you wearing, yes-yes?"

>>21644052
"Wot? Er- yes?" Boss Bawss hazards. Ogres aren't entirely known for their desire to wear clothing other than accessories and the bare minimum needed to stop other races from screaming and clawing out their eyes at the sight of an entirely naked ogre. "'Cept it's metal stuff you wear into da middle of a battle, to stop you from gettin' cut up real bad."

"Metal, made into a form other than a weapon for cutting, or tools... so what you are telling me is," Queen Kilkkarak says carefully, "That we put these metal clothes on over our chitinous shells, which is what helps prevent us from getting cut up real bad, in order to help prevent us from getting cut up real bad."

Boss Bawss nods eagerly, beaming around his tusks. "Yah! An' you can never have enough stuff dat'll help you from gettin' cut up real bad, so it's like- double da stuff dat's helpin' you get protected from gettin' cut up real bad."

"So wait- hold on-" Queen Kilkkarak holds her hands up. "I am curious, then, if we cannot simply go deeper. What if we put on another layer of this wondrous 'armor' over the armor over our chitinous bodies, to provide the most maximum of protections?"

Boss Bawss frowns. "... I dunno. Don't think we ever tried dat..."

On the sidelines, Celicia quietly soothes her troops, whose eyes are beginning to glaze over once more. "... shhh. Just give in and try not to think about it too hard," she mutters, her voice uncharacteristically soft. "It'll be easier that way."

>>21644071
After some more debating, the trading goes off without a hitch- and as is her wont, the Queen of all Scaratones once more offers the ogres and elves a brief tour of the royal hive.

"Another first for us, yes!" Queen Kilkkarak chitters happily, rubbing her hands together. Unsurprisingly, all this trade has caused her strange, pensive mood from earlier to evaporate as if it never was. "Emissaries of a race from the lands across the sea, basking in my royal presence and being given access to the heart of the Scaratone Empire? Unprecedented once more! And such an amusing individual who is in charge of them, yes," she adds, all innocence. "I truly hope I will get to hear you squeak again in the near future, yes-yes. Quite an intriguing sound, it was."

"... thank you, your Highness," Celicia manages to grate out, her gritted teeth nearly bisecting her unlit cigarette as she stares woodenly ahead.

"But more importantly! You must have some destination that you have been curious about, yes! There is no wrong choice, of course, for all locations in the hive are things we take pride in," Queen Kilkkarak says, nodding happily.

Boss Bawss scratches his chin in thought...

When Boss Bawss rattles off his decision, Queen Kilkkarak hesitates for just a moment. "Ah... might be a problem, yes. Some of our beasts are acting up, and it could be dangerous to-"

"Queenie," Boss Bawss replies gently. "Queenie. We are /ogres/. Da last time a buncha beasts got uppity, we punched 'em inna face."

"... true, yes." The Scaratone Queen gives an overly dramatic sigh, crossing her arms over her chest. "Such a shame, really, I cannot fit all that well through the tunnels leading down there. Would give my limbs to watch you inflicting bodily harm on things, and not just second-hand reports...!"

Boss Bawss scratches his head. Well, he can't BLAME her- punching things is pretty damn fun, and the only thing that can really compare is watching people punching things. "... hey, least we'll be beatin' dem Formichroma boys up soon. Bet you'll see us do a lotta dat kinda stuff, right?"

The Queen chitters in amusement, even as the worker Scaratone acting as the ogres and elves' guide starts leading them away. "Quite right, yes-yes! And- Boss Bawss," she calls out, stopping the larger ogre in his tracks.

Boss Bawss blinks as the Scaratone Queen walks over and- clasps a clawed hand on the ogre's shoulder, giving it a squeeze. "Thank you. Your aid in the upcoming fight... it means a lot to us, yes-yes," she says quietly, the usual levity gone from her voice.

"Nah, ya don't have to go an' say dat." The large ogre cracks a simple grin, affectionately punching the Queen's shoulder in response. "We pals now. Dat's wot pals do for each other! Right? Right."

Queen Kilkkarak watches as the ogre lumbers after his group, following them down into the tunnels.

>>21644850
"... and here, we have the grand menagerie of the Scaratone Empire, yes-yes!" The worker Scaratone proclaims proudly. "Beasts from all over the realm, we have gathered in one place! Many exotic varieties of manure to be converted to jelly, and other byproducts to be processed as needed!"

Boss Bawss wrinkles his nose at the smell. Even the ogres accompanying him look a little put-off- and they have pretty high bad-smell thresholds. No surprise that the elves decided to wait outside the entrance to the menagerie.

... Beastkrumpa Squiggles, on the other hand...

"Holyshitholyshit!" the fur-clad ogre squeals giddily, skipping from pen to pen. "Dey got rabbits inna desert? Dat's amazin'! I ain't neve seen one of 'em before, dey always run away when I get close- aaaah, lookit dat cutie pie!" Squiggles exclaims, his voice pitching up an octave in his excitement. "Who's a good snake, yes you are, yes you are!" he coos, reaching through the bars and petting the meter-long snake, ignoring the reptile's attempts to consume his hand whole.

Boss Bawss scratches his head. Sometimes, he worries about Squiggles. He really does. Trying his best to ignore the squeals of joy, the larger ogre points to a larger cage set near the back of the cavern. "Wot're those huge winged rat-like things?"

The worker Scaratone wrinkles his nose. "Bats... we think. Caught them in the deeper caverns recently, yes-yes, but they aren't like the normal we usually raise. Bigger, for one thing," he chitters. "Sullen, for another. Not eating, not really defecating, and not really letting us get close. Dangerous beasts..."

Boss Bawss watches calmly as Squiggles cavorts closer and closer to the cage full of bats, heedless of the Scaratone's warnings. "... y'know, you should probably be tellin' him dat," he rumbles.

"DANGEROUS BEASTS, I said!" the Scaratone wails as he skitters toward Squiggles, having noticed that too late.

"Whoa-hoh! Aren't you guys real beauties?" Before their Scaratone guide can stop him, Beastkrumpa Squiggles screeches to a halt right in front of the bats' cage, making 'tsk-tsk-tsk' noises as he tries to get the animals closer to him. "Here, batty-batty-batty, here-"

With a deafening screech, one of the giant bats suddenly mantles its veined wings and lunges forward to slam against the bars of its prison, snapping its fanged maw at Squiggles... who tilts his head.

"What's that, girl? You broke away from all of your pals, right? Down in da caves?"

"SCREEEE," the bat replies, straining against its cage. The bars start splintering. "SHREEEE."

Squiggles solemnly digests this new information. "... huh. So wot you're sayin' is- you an' your boys, you wanna fly? Feel da wind beneath your wings, an' da sun beatin' down on your back... wow, you're real ell-oh-kuent, you know dat?"

"SKREEEEEEAH." The bats start hammering away at the cage; the nearby worker Scaratones start scrabbling for the exit.

>>21645665
"Well, 'bout dat, we actually DO got a good cave sittin' right under our homes," the Beastkrumpa says calmly, ignoring the bats' imminent escape or the flying fist-size splinters missing him by a matter of centimeters. "An' it's real close to da surface, so you can perch all upside-down like, when you need to rest in da daytime..."

"SKEEEEEEEE!" There's a resounding CRACK as the cage starts giving way.

"Aw, shucks, dat's awful nice of you ta say!" Squiggles chortles, ruffling the bat's head. "I think you smell nice, too. Like murder an' mayhem an' blood. Can I call ya... I dunno, Big Bat?"

"SKREAAAAAAAAAA!!" With one final CRACK, the cage explodes outward, and the bats flap their wing loudly as they take flight... and circle up above Beastkrumpa Squiggles, hugging the ceiling.

Squiggles turns to his boss and shoots the bemused ogre a thumbs-up. "Good news, everyone...!"

A few minutes later, Celicia looks up as the ogres exit the menagerie. "Took you guys long enough. Fuck, those beasts were kicking up such a racket that I thought- oh," she trails off weakly, staring at the procession of giant, orc-sized bats walking along behind the ogres, all parties involved looking like this is an absolutely natural turn of events.

There's a moment of silence as the elf soldiers look between the bats, the ogres, and the bats again.

And then Celicia shrugs, too jaded by now to ask any questions.. "So, where to next?"

>The ogres have gained GIANT BATS! Giant, vampiric, perfectly ride-able, milkable(?) bats, who will keep Ogir Place absolutely free of mosquitoes and other small insectoid pests.

Yeah, considering that the ogres are....bigger than the bats, it seems more appropriate for the elves to ride them instead.

Then again, logic and ogres don't really mix, so....maybe an ogre and elf can ride together? :D

>>21645871
Maybe some kind of flying bat-chariot?

Now all we need is something to stuff a payload of felpowder into to drop onto peoples' heads and we've got ourselves an air force

"... and this is the heart and soul of our empire's finished goods production, yes-yes!" their Scaratone guide proudly proclaims, once he recovers from the shock of ogres being ogres. "Forges farthest in the back of this particular cavern, and the workers' jelly production to our left!"

"WE NOTICED," Celicia growls, pinching her nose shut from the smell and glaring daggers at the world in particular.

"SKREEEEEEEEEEE," Big Bat adds happily from somewhere near the back of the group, loud because everyone else is being loud.

"... a-and the sorcerers' crafting tables are over there," the Scaratone finishes meekly, waving a chitinous hand in that direction. "Creating magical items, yes-yes, to aid our war effort against the insidious Formichroma. We are to give you this technology, yes!" The robe-wearing Scaratones are hard at work around the scattered tables, glowing faintly from their expenditure of magical energies; Boss Bawss thinks he catches a glimpse of a something white on the table, but he can't be sure.

(Cont.)

>>21646197
Let's save those ideas for our next tech roll.

>>21646206
The elves' reaction is somewhat stronger; most of them turn to look at the tables, their eyes glowing slightly due to the ambient magic in the air. "What do you make here?" Celicia asks, the usual note of dry sarcasm gone from her voice.

"Oh... the usual," the worker says airily. "Featherstone conditioning, to create our floating carts; parchment and writing implements, if there is need for preservation of the paper; the usual sundry things that make day-to-day living easier, yes-yes."

Boss Bawss is only listening with half an ear as he looks around, somewhat in awe of this cavern. All the worker Scaratones, all these crafting stations to work and create things with their own hands, all combining together to make- like- some big engine of awesome thing-making...

In fact, it kinda makes the thing-maker in him want to make things.

>>21646595

I will say [Nah] purely because I get the feeling that we'll be getting into proper fighting next thread.

That said, it may end up with the Ogres creating Miniguns or Rocket Launchers if we use it now

>>21646809
They're wanting to save it for something like a run-in with the Formachromia. The way I see it is half the thread is treating the intervention like an ability to spam for free whenever its cooldown is up and the other half is treating it like that one really good item you never use until the end of the game because you don't know if you'll need it more in the next encounter.

>>21646809
Something minor and unimportant. Clearly those two/that one guy don't understand the word. This isn't trivial, this is AWESOME. USE IT!

>>21646794

>>21646831
>Implying that bending the fabric of reality could ever be a waste.

If you are bending the fabric of reality to do something I doubt the end result could ever be considered trivial.

>>21646891
>And then we have another thread without it after that
No, we can use it on the very next thread after the one thread cooldown.

>>21646846
I see what you're saying, and I agree that there are probably greater needs in the foreseeable future, but I still want to use it. The point of this thread, to me, isn't just to win. It's to win awesomely, and even if we lose, to be as amazingly, stupidly worldshattering as possible in the process. Using a luck intervention in such an ogrey plan as "use the crafting table and forge together!" is just how to go about being that reality-breaking.

>>21646901
The result won't be but the reason for using it will be

This is along the lines of your ice cream falls off the stick onto the ground so you use your power to rewind time once a week to stop it

>>21646901

>>21646928
I thought that it continuously snowballed, so if we left it for a while, it becomes a similar level of power to that of a god. Or is it just a single use thing thats the same every time.

Blorp, how does it work?

>>21646972
Guy you're responding to here. That's how I've always understood it, too. I'm not saying it'll be as earthshattering as the last time, but that doesn't mean it won't be awesome.

>>21646972
It does snowball. The longer it sits and the more rolls it accrues, the more potent the intervention.

>>21646972
Unused dubs stock up to make it more powerful
It does snowball and it gets more powerful as we wait so spamming it will get us lots of small gains where waiting will get us turning things into artifacts

Rolled 46

>>21646993

After 8 doubles stored it starts all looking the same kind of stupid awesome. So it becomes as earth-shattering as the first.

>>21646972
... a little from column A, a little from column B. Theoretically, the effect improves over time; practically, there's only so much I can differentiate between "THIS IS A FUCK-AWESOME EFFECT" and "THIS IS A FUCK-AWESOME EFFECT TIMES LIKE NINETY-NINE." It's also highly dependent on the kind of shit I can think up on a moment's notice, and that's even harder to quantify.

Still, I do try to give bonuses if it's been a while since our last one. That said, I'm still working the kinks out of this system (this is only like the second time we've ever used it), so we'll see!

Depends. Are they sentient? If so, you're right. Otherwise, we'll get Squiggles to go to work on them and get Chrysalids for steeds.

>>21646595

I notice that no one questioned when I said we'd summon meteors by accident one day.
Also, no one questioned that we'd find something on the meteor.
Only questions are about /what/ will be on the meteor.

I love this quest.

>>21647199
Yeah, that's kind of the thing about this quest.

Anyway, USE THAT INTERVENTION!

I was first against using it the first time we used it, but now I see, thinking it trivial and that we could do this at some other time. Oh what a fool I was! Use 'dat intervention! Maybe we'll become even more reality warping!

Boss Bawss looks at the forges- which look much like the ones the Scaratones donated to Ogir Place. The red light of flames hot enough to melt and reshape metal flickers in his eyes.

He then looks to the magic-crafting tables, which are intricately gilded affairs suffused by a calmer, more seductive glow, an aquamarine light that seems to make Boss Bawss's dark blue skin all the more unearthly. Honestly, it's hard to decide whether to do one or the oth-

And then a bolt of inspiration strikes the larger ogre, right out of the blue: /why not do both/?

The wizard Scaratone feverishly works on his project, his eyes glowing within the confines of his patterned hood. This project will be the salvation of the Scaratone race, he just KNOWS it- he and his fellows have direct orders from his Queen to see it finished as soon as possible, and-

"Psst," the large, not-at-all-ogre-shaped shape in a cloak whispers. "Can I borrow a table?"

"What-what? Yes, yes, go ahead, Glalkik, what did I tell you about bothering me??" the wizard Scaratone hisses, not looking up from his work.

"T'anks very kindly," not!Boss Bawss rumbles, bodily picking up the adjoining free table and moving off to the forge.

(cont.)

>>21647296
Some minutes later, Boss Bawss frowns at his workstation (which is simply a magic crafting table side-by-side with a forge), deep in thought. "Right then," he rumbles, hefting a piece of ore in his left hand, and some basic rocky probably magic-like object in his right (it's PROBABLY not important, since there were like a trillion of those things lying around the magic-crafting rooms).

"Right then," Boss Bawss repeats to himself, slowly bringing his hands together. Because- because that's how you forge things, right? "Let's do dis thing."

"... and that's how our people learned to use Featherstone, yes-yes!" the Scaratone finishes with a flourish, his audience of elves hanging onto his every word. "The theory behind the Featherstone is really quite interesting, once you get down to it, but thanks to the effort of Queen Skilkk, all those years ago-"

"Where's Boss Bawss?" Celicia says suddenly, glancing around uneasily.

THAT stops the conversation cold. The elves blink, looking at their surroundings with increasing worry, while next to them, the ogres stop trying to give belly-rubs to the bats, pinged by someone saying their boss's name.

"Fuck, he was here just a second ago- Boss Bawss?" Celicia calls out, trying to see around the ogres. "Boss Bawss, seriously, this isn't funny, where the hell-"

"Sorry guys! Here I am," Boss Bawss's voice rings out, sounding like it's coming from a place just a little bit higher than usual.

"Oh thank fucking everything," Celicia breathes a sigh of relief, turning around. "I thought you got eeeeeeeeeeee," she squeaks, tilting her head up just to get a good look at Boss Bawss. Behind her, the others- elves, ogres, and giant bats- do the same.

Boss Bawss sits in the cockpit of what looks like some large, terrifying bipedal beast made out of interlocking iron plates, strangely turning gears, and nightmares. Two strangely-jointed legs are slung beneath the undercarriage, and the slick lines of the body seem to truncate in pipes facing out the back. Finally, a stylized creature's head finishes the ensemble off, its 'mouth' agape and showing off fangs.

Boss Bawss scratches his head, not sure how to interpret the expression on the elves and ogres' faces. "... so I made dis thing."

"Yes. Yes, I can- I can fucking see that," Celicia deadpans, her eyelid ticking nervously again. "What the hell?"

"Well, I took dis thing," Boss Bawss begins.

"Yes?"

"And I took dis other thing," he adds, pantomiming holding one thing in each hand.

"... yes?" Celicia croaks, already dreading the answer.

"... an' I put 'em together."

Absolute silence meets his pronouncement.

"Well, okay then," Celicia says flatly, her eyes already glazing over slightly. Behind her, most of the elves are already bent under the weight of their own minds trying to neatly slot this occurrence into some logical, grounded-in-reality explanation, and failing miserably. "So how are you going to get it out of the hive?"

Boss Bawss purses his lips as he thinks. Then, he shrugs. "Walk it out?"

Celicia opens her mouth to say that no, it's too big to simply be walked out. And then she closes her mouth, realizing that NOT telling him this, and leaving him unaware of the size difference, would just lead to the ogres getting it out of the hive with absolutely no trouble whatsoever.

"So, let's continue dis tour, huh?" Boss Bawss says brightly.

The demon, Archdemon Lord B-something (or just Cuddles) is now entombed underneath Ogir Place, and his always-present aura of foreboding demonic hellfire is no longer merely a way to make him look intimidating- no, it's currently being used to power all of Ogir Place's fire-based needs.

... this will totally not have any repercussions at all in the future.

More importantly, perhaps, the ogres (and some elves) embarked on another diplomatic expedition to Scaratone Hive, hobnobbing with the nobbiest of nobs, Queen Kilkkarak! After another bout of diplomancing and trading, Beastkrumpa Squiggles proceeded to tame bats, and Boss Bawss Fistboss made himself a...

... a thing. Yes, 'a thing' is probably the best way to describe it. Because, seriously, when even the OGRES THEMSELVES are scratching their heads over the damn suit of Ogretek Armor, you know you've got something special going on.

Sadly, the ogres are unable to replicate Ogretek Armor, despite Boss Bawss Fistboss's insistence that it's totally simple.

And... well, we come to the very first (not-moderated-by-Boss-Bawss) ogre and elf expedition to Ogir Crater...

(Cont. in 10-15 minutes!)

So, are we actually "controlling" the expedition? Or are we getting a "recap" of what happened?

Obviously what Bawss needs to do is learn powerful magic while giving himself amnesia. (He can smack himself repeadetdly in the head with a magic tome to do BOTH!) and then decide to conquer a dwarven town to the north.

Also bring along 2 ogre redshirts as 'backup'.

>Ogres not moderated by Boss Bawss
Oh god, I didn't think of that. I don't know if that is a means for tears, or cheers.

Probably both.

If we make this happen then I will have no regrets over using the goddess intervention.
