You are a lonely, chubby neckbeard, and it's one minute away from being your 30th birthday - a birthday that you'll be celebrating alone, again, it seems. You're sitting in front of your computer in your dark room, like every night, posting on anonymous imageboards and watching children's cartoons. You notice the time - shit, it looks like you pissed away another three hours without noticing it; you're going to be tired at your job tomorrow. Well, at least tomorrow I'll finally be a wizard, you think to yourself in wry self-deprication. Then the clock ticks over, and suddenly - nothing. No flash, no fanfare, no explosion of unrealized potential. You sit there in the silence and sigh.

And then a voice whispers from behind you, and you feel your whole body freeze.

"Mortal. I have been watching you for some time. I have been watching your fantasies. Your carefully crafted character personas. Your masturbatory erotic material. Your fiction consumed en masse. It is clear to me that you want to escape, to live in a world of your fantasy - and so, for your birthday, Anon, I shall give you what you want. Ahahahahaha!" it cackles gleefully to itself. And then, before you can protest, your shadowy room fades to black, and you can feel yourself being transformed and empowered as you fall.

You're falling now. Your body is pulling in, condensing, becoming slime and lithe. Your hair grows, your figure changes, and you're distantly aware of your screaming voice jumping octaves. Skills flood your mind - magic of illusion and enchantment, skills of stealth and charisma, the ability to perform from strings to song to dance, and random trivial knowledge from seemingly nowhere.

And then you hit the ground.

Hard.

Dazed and groaning, you pick yourself up off of the packed earth ground. The world swims back into focus, and you realize that you're in the middle of a forest clearing. Your gut twists up when you realize the implications of what may have just happened.

You check yourself over, looking for injuries, shocked to find your body completely reshapen, and not even the same gender. A cautious grope of your ears confirms your guess - you're an elf. And your ears are sensitive. And you don't have anything on you - not a weapon, not a pack, and not any clothes. You don't even have shoes, yet you're out in the middle of nowhere.

What the fuck is this bullshit.

"Fuck!" you can't help but cry out in frustration, your voice now light and sing-songy.

"Why couldn't I have been a fucking druid if I was going to get dropped in the fucking wilderness?" you mutter to yourself, channeling your emotions into anger to keep from fucking panicking at the whole situation. You take a deep breath and think to yourself about what you should do first. You don't know how long you're going to be out here, so shelter is a must. You also need clothes, ESPECIALLY if your fap folder was used when creating this scenario.

"Fuck, seriously, why not something with wilderness survival skills?" you mutter, still channeling everything into nice, safe anger.

Regardless, you don't know shit about wilderness survival, or at least nothing more than you learned watching TV shows and movies. Over the next hour, you manage to rip a few branches off of some trees and fashion them into a very crude lean to, after which you get huge armfuls of the tall grass from the clearing and fashion it into two extremely crude grass skirts, one to go around your waist and one to go around your chest. When you're done, they're... Well, they're a little better than being nude, at least.

You're getting hungry now, from the excitement and fear and work, and based on your guesstimates, the sun is just past noon. You've spotted a surprising number of birds with your sharp elf eyes - hey, no more glasses, there's a perk - and there were some berries in the woods, though you have no idea if they're safe to eat.

What do you do now?

I roll for performance: sing, to see if I can attract a bird close enough to catch it and rap... eat it.

>>
You search out with your elf senses - and you realize that all of your senses are really quite fantastic, sharp eyes, great hearing, sensitive touch - and pick out a bird. You pick up a rock, and start moving quietly towards it, reasonably confident that your bardic skills and light elven frame make for easy stealth. When you're just a few meters away, you haul back and throw the rock at it, knocking it off the branch.

It seems injured, but not killed, and starts flopping and squawking off into the forest startlingly fast. You decide against following it for now for fear that you might lose the clearing where you've set up the lean to. Instead, you sigh, and hunker down, searching the forest within eyesight of your clearing for edible fruits and leaves and roots and bark.

The random trivial knowledge comes in surprisingly handy, and soon you have a big armful of unappetizing raw plant stuff that you're reasonably sure is safe to eat and pretty nutritious. You head back to your lean to and start eating, avoiding the bark and raw tubers for now and instead eating the berries. The distant parallel to you alone in your apartment eating sweets and you alone in this clearing, and you laugh, but that quickly turns into a sob.

The anger is starting to fade, and now you're left feeling scared and alone. You keep yourself relatively calm, though, and keep eating. You're hungry now, you can feel bad for yourself later.

What now?

You finish eating, or finish as much as you can. You had gathered an amount that would have filled your stomach before, but it seems you have a much smaller stomach now, and your appetite is sated much more quickly. You leave what's left of your meal - well over half of it - in your lean to, as you head out for a tree you spotted earlier that was very tall and had branches that seemed well-paced for climbing.

Coming up to you, you grab a low branch, give a hard heave... And find yourself lifting up with apparent ease. Right, lithe and petite elf body, very light weight. This should be relatively easy.

Within minutes, you find yourself in the old-growth tree's upper branches, peering out across the forest. In the distance, a couple of miles out, you spot a long, winding break in the trees. You can't tell if there's water there, but it's sure shaped like a stream.

"This is just like Assassin's Creed III," you say to yourself, trying to cheer yourself up with references to video games. Unsurprisingly, it doesn't help, and you're left feeling like kind of a tool. You decide not to test your luck jumping off like in the game and instead climb back down.

Barely half-way down the tree, however, your sharp elf ears pick up the sound of huffing, growling, and chewing. Turning to look back at your clearing, you see a large black bear, your lean to torn asunder, and the bear munching on your leftovers. It turns and starts walking towards your tree.

Holy fuck, what now?

You're not sure if it's bard instincts, elf instincts, or being somewhat manic with fear, but your response to the bear closing in on your tree is to sing. You sing something visceral, primordial, and magical. Your song is soothing and affection and cooperation. The bear tilts its head, then comes to stop at the base of the tree, sitting and looking up at you, then lying down.

You take a deep breath, keep humming the song, and continue climbing down, bracing yourself to fling yourself back up the tree if the bear gets angry. But you're down on the ground and the bear is still looking at you with its round, dark eyes. You pad over to it, still running on pure instinct or something like it, and pet it lightly on the head.

It makes a low rumbling sound that nearly scares you shitless at first, but you realize that it's a happy sound. Long story short, after a few minutes of gradually growing comfortable with having a huge fucking bear around and growing slowly more confident in your bardic music, you're riding the bear over to where the possible stream is.

It doesn't take long riding bearback, as it's only a few minutes away. It turns out it is a stream, clear and with flat, round, river-worn stones all over the bottom and the shore. When you get down off the bear's back, it yawns and goes trotting back off into the forest, leaving you standing there at the streamside in barely-counts-as-clothing grass skirts.

You breathe a sigh of relief. What now?

"HOLY SHIT. I TAMED A BEAR AND RODE IT," you let out in one long breath. Then you realize you had unwashed bear fur right up against your bare crotch. You take off your crude "clothes" and rinse off, getting a good look at your reflection and a few gulps of clean water as you do.

You have nobody to compare yourself against to know how tall you are - for all you know, that could have been a small bear or a huge bear, and same with the trees. Still, you're slim, lithe. You have very small breasts, curvy hips, thin limbs. A pretty face - you can't make out what colour your eyes are in the shifting water - long blonde hair. You have no body hair, just like the description of elves in your PHB back in your room at home. And you're 100% woman - if hentai's taught you anything, you'll need to do some experimental masturbation to confirm that, but that can wait for later.

Once you're freshly washed and watered, you shake yourself as dry as you can, let the sun do a little more, then pull back on your clothes. You figure the stream will have to hit a bridge or a town eventually, or merge into a river that does, so you start walking along the smooth river stones on the shore down stream. It's still afternoon, you guess, so you should have plenty of daylight left.

How long do you keep traveling? Do you forage/search for anything on the way? Do you do anything to keep yourself entertained, like sing or play travel games?

You keep walking for a while, looking for food, dry wood, and anything that could be used as a shelter along the way. As you go, you feel yourself just start singing. This is something you never would have done before, but now it seems as natural as breathing, and it seems like you have an encyclopedic knowledge of cheerful marching songs in dozens of languages. It takes you a minute before you realize that the orcish one is literally about marching to go rape elven maidens, sung in your sweet elven voice, and you quickly switch to a new one when you do, your stomach clenching into a sick knot.

You find a medium-sized fish alive but drowning, flopping about in the air of the shore at one point, and club it with a rock with the intent of eating it for dinner. You pick up an armful of dry sticks and grass along the way too. Finally, a little before the sun starts setting, you find a stone overhang - looking like it used to be a boulder centuries ago before erosion happened to it.

You set up camp under the overhang, building a small fire with a quick spark cantrip and setting the fish to roast on a stick over it like in one of your Japanese cartoons. Now that you're here, resting, in more control than before, and with food, the fear and anxiety of the past few hours finally hit you. You tuck your knees up against your chest where you're sitting, cover your face with your hands, and start crying while your fish finishes cooking.

Night is falling. What now?

You start eating your fish when the skin gets nice and blackened, though you can't seem to stop crying yet, tears still rolling down your cheeks. The fish is not nearly as good as your Asian cartoons made it seem, but it's still fucking fantastic after a day of exercise and fear. You finish most of the fish, getting nice and full, and put what's left up in a tree for breakfast if nothing gets to it during the night.

Then you sit back down next to the camp fire. You're tired, but you decide there's something important you need to do first. You start touching your body - your breasts, your ears, your crotch - and find yourself incredibly sensitive to the touch. You're not sure if normal women are like this because porn has a habit of exaggerating stuff like this. Still, after a few minutes of exploration, you've corrected a lot of misconceptions you had about the female body.

An hour of furious masturbation later, and you're exhausted - mentally, emotionally, and physically - full, sexually satisfied, and adding your sensitive body and the female orgasm to the list of perks of this shitty, shitty experience. The fire has burned down to embers, and you pull a leafy tree branch around you as an extremely crude cushion/blanket, then drift off to sleep.

You wake up to getting poked with something hard in the ribs. You open your eyes confused, not sure where you are or why your back feels like you slept on a pile of rocks. There's an orc staring at you.

You scream in a voice that is literally ear-splittingly high pitched. You start back-pedaling away from him, though you're still on the ground on your back. He covers his ears, grimaces, and then takes a few steps towards you. You give him a switch kick to the testicles, and have scrambled up a tree at a frankly unsafe pace.

"Lady, for fuck's sake, just stop screaming!" shouts the orc in a low, gravely voice - or it would be low and gravely if he hadn't just been nailed in the balls. You take a better look at him. He's wearing what looks like a flannel shirt, rough pants, suspenders, boots. He has a tomahawk and a big knife on his belt, and is holding a long wood axe whose handle he had been poking you with. There's also what looks to be a hunting rifle hanging from a sling on his shoulder.

You take a minute to calm down. This orc doesn't seem rapey - though appearances can be deceiving. He looks like a ranger. Or a woodsman. Or a lumberjack, maybe? You stop screaming at least.

"Jesus, lady, I'm sorry for scaring you like that. Are you okay? What's your name?" he asks around bristling fangs and tusks.

"Uh... No... Na?" you say. "Nona, I guess?"

Well then. This is fucking weird. Also, you just realized he can see your cunt despite the grass skirt from where he's standing. And you lost your top in the mad-scramble up the tree.

"I have basically no idea what's going on, am lost, and am functionally naked," you say, covering your small breasts with your arm and pulling your knees together. "Could I get some clothes or something? Or directions? Anything, really." You're shaking a little, though you're not sure if it's from adrenaline, fear, embarrassment, the fact that you have nothing protecting you from the environments, or a combination therein.

"Oh, sure," says the orc, setting down his wood axe and rifle, pulling down his suspenders, and unbottoning and pulling off his plaid flannel shirt. You find yourself staring for a minute at the massive wall of hairy muscle that is his torso before postponing questioning your sexuality for later - you would much rather have the shirt at the moment. "Sorry again," he says, handing it up to you. You might just be imagining it, since he looks like a fucking lumberjack, but you thing you hear a hint of Canadian in his pronunciation of 'sorry.'

You pull the shirt on, button it up, and climb down the tree. The sleeves go well past your hands and you roll them up to your elbows, and the bottom of the shirt is nearly to your knees.

"Holy shit, how tall are you," you ask, looking up at the orc.

"Oh, about six and a half feet," he says, looking at you with concern. "Maybe a bit more."

You guess you're about five feet tall, then. His forearms are bigger around than your thigh.

Holy shit. This guy is fucking enormous. And you're little.

"Thanks," you say, gulping. "So, uh, where are we? And where's the nearest town?"

"We're in the beautiful forests of the Arcadian wilds," says the orc, his face blooming into an absolutely terrifying smile of tusks and fangs. He hoists his suspenders back up, apparently intending to keep his pants up. "And the nearest town is about a half-day's walk down the stream. It's more of a trading outpost than a proper town, really, but they have goods for trade and rooms with beds and walls."

"Oh. Good," you say, and you really mean it. "Oh, and what's your name?"

He looks bashful and says, "Oh, right. Jack. Jack Carson. Listen, you don't look like you have, well, anything on you. If you want to, you can come with me back to my cabin so I can get a new shirt, then lead you in to town. I have some furs to trade, and no offense, but you look like you could use a good meal."

He hangs his rifle back on one shoulder and hoists the axe up on the other.

"I could probably get you some proper clothes, maybe a ride somewhere else, with the pelts I've got. What do you say?"

What do you say? Do you follow the giant wall of orc back to his cabin?

"Yeah, sure," you say, nodding. "I really appreciate the help. And can I get a belt for this shirt while we're there? If you have one to spare, that is."

"Yeah, sure," replies the massive orcish ranger. "I'll make some breakfast too. Should have some eggs and some venison, if you're hungry."

Your stomach gurgles a bit. You never did get a chance to even check if your leftover fish was even still up in that tree. "Yeah. Thanks."

"So, what do you do?" he asks, trying to make polite conversation. "Seems a long way out from any of the rail lines for a pretty little thing like you. No offense intended."

"Oh. I sing, I guess. Or I guess I do lots of things. I'm a bard," you say, wondering if half the shit you can do is actually marketable as a profession.

The orc whistles, something you wouldn't have expected him to be able to do with those tusks. "Graduated bard college, huh? That's respectable, though still leaves me wondering why you're all the way out here."

"Honestly, I'm not really sure of that myself."

By then, you've arrived at his cabin, a thing made of massive roughly hewn logs, a small pen and coop for chickens out front and an outhouse off to the side. He heads right on up to the door, dropping the axe blade-first into a stump outside his door and waving for you to follow him on inside.

You realize your back is sore, you're still tired despite sleeping last night, you're very hungry, and the outhouse looks like a godsend.

You avail yourself of his outhouse, then head on in to his cabin after him. You find him standing at a wood stove in a new (identical) shirt with a frying pan. There are two small steaks and some scrambled eggs frying in it. What's left of a deer is hanging from a hook in the corner - it looks like he's been working away at it for a while. Still, the food smells fantastic.

There's a rough wooden bedframe piled up with quilts and the pelts of small animals like hares in one corner. In the other is an equally rough wooden table with two chairs. He hears you as you walk in and points over to the table with the huge knife he's using to stir the eggs and says, "Feel free to sit. I'll have some food for you in just a minute."

You do. "So, why are you all the way out here, Jack?"

He slouches a little at that. "I got into some trouble back home," he says. "Someone accused me of doing something that I didn't do. You know how it is, though. Green skin means you're guilty. I didn't stick around for the trial. I hope being in a 'fugitive's' cabin doesn't make you too uncomfortable."

You consider it for a second as he serves up the food onto the plates and plants himself in the other seat. "What did they say you did?" you ask around a big bite of deer meat.

He pokes at his eggs with his fork, then pushes his plate away, frowning. The teeth make the frown terrifying. "They said I raped some women. I never touched them."

He stands up and walks out the door.

What do?

>>22631443

Ask him to come back in and sit down with us.

You put down your fork too. That's some heavy shit. That is some seriously heavy shit. You head over to the door to call him back in or comfort him or something - you don't know, you're new to this whole charisma thing. You see him standing outside, leaning against a tree with one arm. He's wiping his eyes - they're red and puffy, and he's looking out into the wilderness, not directly at the cabin.

"Hey," you say from the doorway, to get his attention. "Uh, your eggs are getting cold?" Wow, that was feeble.

Still, he runs a big, hairy hand across his eyes and sniffs once and starts walking back towards the door. "Yeah. Yeah, sorry. It's just hard to talk about. It's a good life, out here, but I left a lot behind."

The two of you go back to eating. He seems gentle enough, and forthright too. And he could have done absolutely anything he wanted to you before, especially when you found you still sleeping. He's given you plenty of reasons to trust him, and no real reason not to.

"So, uh," he says, his voice even more gravely than before after totally-not-crying. "Now you know why I'm out here. What's a bard doing out in the middle of nowhere?"

Well, shit. You were evading that topic. Do we return his honesty with honesty or tell a much-more-convenient lie?

"Until yesterday, I was a human, and not from this world, or at least I think not. Yesterday, I get told by a voice that I'm having all of my fantasies granted as a birthday wish, wake up in a clearing, naked, an elf, in the middle of nowhere. I don't even know how I got all of these bard skills," you say, now poking at your eggs too. It sounds ridiculous when you say it out loud, like a delusion or a fever dream.

Jack looks at you pensively, his brow furrowing. Then, after a minute, he nods. "I believe you. It makes about as much sense as any other reason for a bard to be out in the middle of the woods, I guess. And even if it turns out you're just imagining it, I think that you believe it, at least." He shovels that last few bites from his plate into his mouth, then stands up and stretches, his back cracking as he groans. "I'm ready to leave whenever you are. Feel free to take your time."

Then he strolls out of the cabin, casually yanking his wood axe out of the stump as he goes.

I'm someone finally asked.

If you're in the wilds of Arcadia, that means you're on the continent of Sirocco. Sirocco is forests in the north, great plains in the center, and desert in the south, with various lakes, rivers, and mountain ranges throughout. Sirocco is mostly untamed wilderness, except in the very south, where colonists from the continent to the south, Marsa, formed colonies largely controlled by guilds, trade companies, and corporations. The only way up into the Arcadia region if Sirocco is via rail.

Marsen is much more developed, with metropoli, ruins, and various nations of various races. The elves form the Sidhe caste in the Seelie and Unseelie nations. The dwarves have eight ancient stronghold-citystates connected by deeproads. Men have a huge number of often-warring, yet often-peaceful, kingdoms, republics, citystates, and so on. Marsen is tropical rain forest in the north and temperate plains and forests in the south.

And being an elf without knowing whether you're a citizen of Seelie or Unseelie is a very bad thing.

"I believe you too!" you call out after him, though you're not sure if he heard. Still, you scarf down the rest of your breakfast, then head out after him. He's carrying back a bucket of water from the stream when you poke your head out. He brings it in and pours some in a bowl. He washes his hands and his face with it, then dumps it out and pours a bowl for you. You do the same, having not even noticed how filthy your hands were. You also got a chance to see your reflection better in the water - you're breathtakingly pretty. Your eyes are green.

Once you're all washed, Mr. Carson hands you a big, broad leather belt, which you use to pull the shirt in to your waist, making it a slightly-less-ill-fitting dress. He loads all sorts of pelts - some of them fox, and some of them you don't even recognize, in brilliant scarlet, and even greens or blues, one covered in shining golden scales - into a massive leather rucksack, ties a bunch of additional small pelts to loops and hooks on the outside, and then heaves it up onto his shoulders. He tosses on the rifle, picks up the wood axe, and starts heading out, leading you after him.

You start absent-mindedly singing, and Jack doesn't complain. You realize one stanza in that it's that orcish march from before. The one about the elf rape. "Hey, was that orcish?" Jack promptly asks. "I can't speak a word of it, but it sounds like what I've heard."

You're not sure what to say to that.

What do you do?
>>
>>22632172
At least traditionally Seelie tend to be whimsical dicks who sometimes do something nice for you but will fuck you up if you annoy them or break a deal, Unseelie are whimsical ULTRADICKS who will fuck you over for no reason.

Say yes, but try to change the subject before he can ask what it's about.
>>
DO we know anything about the elvish castes to make an educateed guess? (Green eyes, blond hair could mean summer aka Seelie)
>>
>>22632215
Pretty much this. The Seelie are well-meaning but their laws and codes and honour system are often self-contradictory, very strict, and make little sense to outsiders. The Unseelie are the same, but without being well-meaning. And elves, traditionally, have a somewhat skewed sense of morality, compared to humans. The same is true of the dwarves, but in a different direction entirely.

Also, since I failed to mention it, orcs are native to a continent to the west that connects via land bridge to Marisen in the far south. Back in the days of antiquity, the orcs had conquered most of Marisen using their horde, mounted on horse and using massive recurve bows. They collapsed shortly thereafter, their military good at taking but terrible at holding land.

And extensive slave trade occurred just a few centuries ago, with dwarven merchant companies selling orc slaves to various human nations and both the Seelie and especially Unseelie nations. Many orcs have absolutely none of their native culture left. They have the hereditary poor education and poor opportunities expected from barely-freed slaves and have cultural stereotypes of rape and violence from the long-passed Horde days. Their fearsome faces and huge frames don't help the stereotypes any.

"Yeah, it was a song in orcish, but I think it's mostly a sign that whomever sent me to this world is a giant asshole," you say, gritting your teeth. Why the fuck did the song about orcs raping elven maidens have to be so damn catchy? And perfect to march to?

Jack cocks his head, says, "I don't get it," then shrugs and drops the issue. You switch to happier songs, like some elven ones, until your bardic knowledge kicks in and you realize that each song has about a dozen layers of meaning in the subtlety and nuance of the elvish language. A lot of them feature implied rape, or heroes on high who are, on another layer, incompetent posers, and another politicians, and another amoral wandering murderers. Rather than trying to sort out which actually are and are not secretly happy - if any of them were, ultimately, one or the other - you switch to some straightforward human ones, and Jack joins in on the ones he knows, his gravely baritone booming through the forest.

Before you know it, you're both to a curve in the river where stand tall wooden walls, the roof of a wooden fort visible over them. The gates are open, and you can see dwarves milling about inside, going about their trades, duties, and leisures, as well as some humans, and just a couple orcs.

"Well, here we are," says Jack. "I'm going to go sell these pelts. You can do what you please, but with how little you're wearing, I would suggest sticking with me for now. It's up to you."

Civilization! What do?
>>
>>22632449
Back in the day? Yes. Later, they had to contend with colonial exploitation by Mariseni nations and trade companies and chattel slavery made all the worse by tribal infighting. Everything sort of fell apart for them after the horde collapsed.

"I'll stick with you," you say, quite seriously. "At least until I get some underwear."

He nods and leads you in. You draw stares from everyone - for one things, you're new. You're scantily clad, to say the least. You gorgeous, one of the Sidhe. And you're being led around by some orc who lives out in the woods. Oh, and the trading post looks to be about 90% men. Yeah, you're getting a lot of stares.

Jack walks right up to one of the merchant counters, sets down his pack, and starts unloading all of the pelts that he brought. The dwarven merchant, a clean-shaven and square-jawed man, gives each of them an appraising look, weighs them on the scale, and then puts a mark in his ledger. He also casts you a look that's exactly as appraising as when he looks at the furs. That's just fucking unsettling.

When he's done with all the furs, he brings out a roll of bills, starts peeling some off, and says, "A hundred crowns for the lot of them."

Jack frowns at that. "The golden crest is worth at least twenty."

"Take it or leave it," says the merchant.

Do you try to back Jack up, or trust him to handle his shit?

You plant your feet and use your new skills and instincts to plant a few well-chosen words in an otherwise innocuous conversation to try to evoke pity and lenience in the merchant, as well as guilt and implications of dishonesty. When the conversation comes back around to Jack again, he says, "Now, come on. You know they're worth more than that."

The dwarf huffs, but he pulls out an extra twenty crowns of notes and hands them to him. Jack grins, thanks him, grins at you in particular, and heads over to a stall where they're selling clothes. Most of them are made of wool or linen, though some, especially the undergarments, are made of light fibers like cotton. There's a privacy screen to change behind if you want to try on the clothes, and you get behind it to do just that, having no clue what approximate size you are. They don't have any brassieres here, but they do have some women's panties. Jack patiently passes items over for you as you try to find your size.

You end up with a white linen blouse that actually fits you, a pair of cotton underwear, thick wool socks, and simple leather boots. Then you have to make a choice. You have a pair of brown wool slacks that are a little too loose, especially without a belt, but the right length and a knee-length brown wool skirt that actually properly fits you.

Do you go with the skirt or the slacks? And where to next after that?

We are a gunslinging singing bard. I think either would be proper. My answer was skirt since our art has us in what looks like a dress.

You take the skirt. No use in being in denial about your situation, you guess, and besides, it actually fits. That's good enough for you. Jack peels a few crowns off of his roll of money to pay for your clothes, then asks you, "Where to next? There's a tavern, or we could shop around a bit."

"Let's shop around. I want an instrument - and maybe a pistol - if that's okay," you say.

"As it so happens, I think I saw an acoustic guitar near the gates when we came in. Luxury items like that tend not to cost too much because they almost never sell. They're just there to draw in customers who buy other things," says Jack, leading you over to the stall.

You nod - it makes sense, you guess. Honestly, it just hit you that this time yesterday you were mostly-naked and riding a bear through the woods. You're a little distracted by the realization that it's just been a day since then.

You get to the stall, and Jack purchases the guitar with little fuss. It's cheap, and you can see why. It will never be a great guitar, and it will take a while today to get it in tune, but you don't need it to be great. You sling it over your shoulder on the same side where Jack is keeping his rifle.

"So, you want to go try to find a gun, or go get a drink at the tavern? I'm not sure if they have any pistols here - it's mostly rifles and shotguns for hunting game."

What do you do now, have a drink, get a gun, or something else?
>>
>>22633282
Let's get a drink, we've had a long couple days, we need a drink. Then we can tune the guitar, get on stage, and start singing classic rock.

"Let's get a drink first," you say, already starting to tune your new guitar. Your hands move with a precision you would call practiced if you had ever actually done this before. In short order, you're both served up a tall pint of beer. Jack drinks it in big gulps, but you find yourself nursing your drink. Before you're even a quarter of the way through, you're already feeling a slight buzz. Apparently being elven, small, and a woman all have had an extremely negative impact on your alcohol tolerance. It's hitting you shockingly hard.

Well, at least it loosens you up enough to actually start playing. Once you've finished tuning the guitar, you start playing, starting with an Earth classic - one that could couldn't have not-played given the situation. After that, you start taking requests, and an hour later you've earned enough crowns from drunk people who want to hear drinking songs that you've paid off your guitar and then some. You try to hand the wad of cash off to Jack, but he waves it off and says, "You can use that to help pay for your gun."

You grin and say, "Deal." You're starting to enjoy this bard stuff. You take a couple big gulps of your beer in celebration. It's starting to make you feel relaxed and warm, and you're having a really good time.

"Let's go get you your piece, then," says Jack, standing up to head out.

Do you go with him? And do you finish, or at least take a few more gulps of, your beer, for good measure?
>>
>>22633688
Let's go with him, don't finish, we're drunk enough.
>>
>>22633688
I say we should leave the beer as-is and head out for the gun.
>>
>>22633688
Aye, and aye.
>>
>>22633688
We'd be too drunk if we finished, go with Jack no questions asked.
>>
>>22633688
Lets go with him, and finish the beer like a bard should. Alcohol tolerance be damned.
>>
>>22633688
Go with Jack, and offer him the remaining beer since he seems able to take it, and you don't personally fancy trying to pick a gun while drunk.

No more beer, we want to be able to judge our new gun well and we can't do that when we're sloshed. Gotta remember this probably isn't the watery piss americans get.

If we ever have to perform for dwarves, we need to rock Hall of the Mountain King. The Apocalyptica cover. If they don't make us an honorary dwarf for 'writing' a song about their king while making wood and wind sound like metal, this world will burn.

>>22633766
If we're pulling off Apocalyptica we need a bassist, two more guitars, some violinist, and some wind instrumentalist too.
>>
>>22633688
Finish the beer, then cast a quick sobriety spell.

We're a bard in a fantasy world, that pretty much has to be a basic part of our repertoire.
>>
>>22633766
And then hit them with some Nightwish?
>>
>>22633826
And then we flub the sobriety spell due to our inebriation.
>>
You decide against finishing your beer - you're not sure if this stuff is crazy strong, you have basically no tolerance, or both, but you're pretty well done. Any more and your judgement would start being impaired, and gun shopping might be the least of your problems at that point. As it was, you were having a hard time keeping from staring at the tits of the few women in the trading post or Jack's ass as he walked ahead of you, and this was still no time to explore your sexuality.

You do offer your half-pint to Jack, though, and he drains it like it was nothing, then leads you out to a stall that mostly has a couple of longarms and some boxes of ammunition out on display. "We're looking for a pistol," says Jack, at which the vendor raises an eyebrow.

"Not many animals you can hunt with that," says the merchant.

"Yeah, but it's pretty good for self defense," says Jack, sparing a glance your way.

The merchant nods, then pulls a revolver out from under the counter. "Five shot, .38 special. Doesn't pack a lot of power, but it should be more than enough for self defense. I'll throw in ten rounds too."

Should you get the revolver or save your money for something else? Where to after that?
>>
>>22633938
Well, it is pretty basic. But I'd think after facing the bear in the forest, we won't always be able to tame them. Ask if the merchant has any bigger guns than that.
>>
>>22633938
.38? Why not .357? Drop a man or any backwood critters that might bother us pretty well. See what he has in stock.
>>
>>22633938
Ask what else he has in stock.

Ask to see EVERYTHING he has in stock. Even the shit no one wants.

>>22633975
>Sorry if I wasn't clear; that's the only pistol in stock, and bards aren't proficient, without training, in any firearms other than pistols

>>22633938
See if he has a .357 repeater or a pistol in that caliber. If not, snag that .38.
>>
>>22634005
In that case, look for another shop. It's always the stores that are hidden away that no one except the people who know about it goes to that hold the good stuff cheap.
>>
>>22634030
>this is a small, frontier trading post, not even something as large as a proper town

>>22634005
If we're not proficient in anything except pistols, snag the .38. Ask if he has anymore ammo for it.

>>22634046
I guess we're going with the .38 then.

Why, we're a BARD. We get free money just for lounging around, killing time while we loiter. So long as there are people present, we will never want for cash.

That said: We have an accoustic guitar. Now we need a reputation, in a frontier town of dangerous men. I vote we start with some Johnny Cash, maybe work our way into some early Willy Nelson.

When I was just a baby my mama told me. Hon,
Always be a good girl, don't ever play with guns.
But I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die
When I hear that whistle blowing, I hang my head and cry"

We could probably adapt 'Boy named Sue into Girl named Joe'. 'Bard in Black', once we gets some dye for a spare set of 'performance clothes'. We could make this work.

Also, besides the kazoo, we need an accordion. Can't polka without one, and if we liked Weird Al then we've probably got some polka in our head somewhere.

You fork over the crowns for the gun, the ten rounds, and an additional ten rounds after that. You get a gun belt and holster for it too, and slip your extra bullets into the loops on the gun belt. If you had a mirror, you bet you would look quite the dashing gunslinger right now, with a pistol on your hip and a guitar on your shoulder. And that's totally not the alcohol talking probably.

You can't help but do the thing where you spin the cylinder and then snap the gun shut a couple of times. You've never really used a firearm before, so this is all knowledge from video games and magically-implanted skills. You're hoping to get something with a little more punch than this at some point - if your wrists and arms are strong enough to hand the recoil, which you're not at all sure about - but this should be good for now.

"Hmmm, I'll need to head out soon if I want to make it back to my cabin before nightfall," says Jack, looking up at the sky. "Do you have anything else you want to look at while I'm still here? And will you be finding a bed here, or do you want to sleep at my cabin with me? I mean, you wouldn't be sleeping with me, just at my cabin with me. Nobody will try anything while I'm here to watch your back, but I'm not sure after I leave."

Well, that's a bunch of good questions. Do you have anything else you want to do or look at right now? And will you be heading back with Jack or staying at the trading post tonight?

"I'll go back with you. Like I said, I trust you," you say to Mr. Carson, giving him a smile. "Thanks for letting me. I want to see if there are any books for sale here first, though."

"I don't think they sell any books here other than the Bible," says Jack, gesturing over to where someone is doing just that. "You actually have to go to a proper town or city to get anything more than that."

You frown. That's not the answer you wanted, but there doesn't seem to be anything you can actually do about that. Shit. And your bardic knowledge already covers that.

You shrug defeatedly. "Let's head back, then. No reason to dawdle if we might get caught out at night."

"Let's, then," says Jack, carrying the much-too-big-for-you shirt that you no longer needed now that you have an outfit over his shoulder, under his wood axe. It's going to be a pretty long walk back to the cabin, but you have some new songs that you want to try out on your new guitar. Songs that nobody in this world has probably ever heard before and that you can plagiarize to your heart's content.

So, originally, the Orcish Catholic Church was just the faith of the orcs. It has never spread to Marsen until the Horde came, and during its short but hard rule, the Orcish Catholic Church stamped out most of Marsen's local faiths. After the fall of the Horde, the church in Marsen mutated into the Marsen Orthodox Church, which the elves, to this day, insist they invented, and that the Horde stole their faith from them, which is utter nonsense.

A lot of people believe it, though, since the Orcish Catholic Church has splinted and mixed with tribal faiths to the point that the various Orcish denominations look a lot more like voodoo than proper Orcish Catholicism.

As for the actual mythology, it featured the Orcish Overgod raping a virgin to produce a demigod heir. The heir tried to bring war to the corrupt and incompetent leaders of the tribes, and then chained him to a rock to be eaten alive by carrion birds as punishment. They say his pain and sacrifice washed clean all the world of their sin, and that henceforth all would be judged by their own merit, rather than bear the onus of their ancestors' failings.

The Marsen interpretation of the faith has different details, but similar themes.

Oh, and it's pronounced "ee-ay-soos." Or jeezus among the humans, or haysoos among the elves, or HERESY among the dwarves.

The dwarves mostly practice ancestor worship, which the Church explicitly forbids in the would soul-cleansing-pain thing.

There is magic-that-practitioners-call-divine. But no hard evidence on whether it's any different from differently-rationalized arcane magic. No gods actually running around and doing shit, though some wizards come damn close. Faith, in this setting, is something that actually does require real faith, same as in the real world.
