"Quinn!" Amellia coos. "It's been far too long, my old friend~ I'm glad you decided to come back from those dreadful thorpes in the Fangs. What brings you to our humble estate?" She eyes the trussed up paladin like a predator salivating over a piece of raw meat. "Did you bring me a present, perhaps? A freshly plucked farmer's daughter, for my collection~?"

>Alas, no. Perhaps next time. I was hoping I could leave Blue in your care for the day.
>A project of mine, actually. I was hoping I could borrow your dungeons for a fortnight or so.
>A Paladin of Achilles, to speak the truth of it! I was planning to break her myself, though.

awww yiiis it's go time.

>A Paladin of Achilles, to speak the truth of it! I decided I had too much free time and that I needed a new hobby.

>>27131197
>>A Paladin of Achilles, to speak the truth of it! I was planning to break her myself, though.

>>27131197
>A project of mine, actually. I was hoping I could borrow your dungeons for a fortnight or so.

fuck yes we did some ill shit last night

>>27131218
Oooh, a TWF paladin? That should be pretty neat. Maybe we should hold onto that magus sword....

>>27131197
>A Paladin of Achilles, to speak the truth of it! I was planning to break her myself, though.

>Write in

"but I am open to suggestions though"

>>27131197
Bow back to Amelia, take her hand and give it a quick kiss or kiss her on the cheek, if we're close by.

"Alas my dear Countess it is not a present for you, it is a project of my own. Though I may very well call upon your assistance.

You see darling, she happens to be a Paladin of Achilles and I knew that I just had to have her for my own and see what I could do with her."

>>27131478
Hurf, good catch anon! We can't forget our manners. We need to set a good example to Blue and, of course, the Marquessa deserves our utmost respect.

>>27131197
A paladin of Achilles, to speak the truth of it! I was planning on making her my personal pet, though.

>>27131662
Durr, Marquessa, not Countess.

I honestly have no clue how I got those two confused.

But yes, she seems like our type of girl and showing respect to someone whose dungeon we're using is a good idea.

So what are we going to do with the paladin once we break her? What are we going to try to mold her into?
I see two very broad options:
Antipaladin: The dark mirror of her former self, Good to evil, law to chaos. She'd probably kill for fun like we do. Problem is, I don't trust us, so I wouldn't trust her if we turned her into us.

Dark Knight: Evil knight sworn to our service. More reliable, but possibly less fun to be around. Also, it doesn't have as much mechanical support in our current system, which kinda sucks.

I personally prefer the Dark Knight approach, what do you guys think?

>>27131704
Somewhere between the two. Our partner in crime, someone who appreciates what we do and enjoys it.

But we want her to have grown dependent on us, we want to be a cornerstone of her reality and personality. Basically elevate ourself to an idol in her mind.

>>27131704
>>27131725 has it right. There's a happy middle ground between 'gleeful sociopath' and 'service bound to us so she doesn't try to eat our heart and wear our skin'

>>27131704
I'd prefer a loyal minion to a potential rival i think.

>>27131704
All we want to do is fuck her up and make her bad, so let's not concern ourselfs with the goal and enjoy the journey.

>>27131785
But the destination is the reward.

"A Paladin of Achilles, actually," you say. You give your old employer as much a kneel as you can manage, and reach out to kiss her ring. "She and a few of her friends decided to attack me while I was out having some fun with a couple of farmers. Being the only one of the four who didn't die in a single hit, I figured what the hell! Here I was with a bunch of free time on my hand between pillaging, why don't I take a leaf out of the ol' Dame's book and start up a collection of my own."

The Marquessa pouts.

"I take it she's not a gift then..." She says, more than a little disappointed.

"Not as such, though once I get settled with a place of my own, I could invite you over to watch, I suppose." The paladin on your shoulder gets real squirmy when you say that for some reason. You've got to take a second to readjust her position, unless you accidentally drop her on her head. "I'm more looking for a sitter for a few days - I've got business in the city, and I need someplace to keep her where the yeomen won't stare."

"The second dungeon is open, milady," Tom informs the Marquessa. "All seven cells. Business with the traffickers has been unfortunately slow this season, I'm afraid."

Huffing, the Marquessa waves Tom off. "Very well, very well. You may the second dungeon for a fortnight or two, until you've gotten yourself situated in town. But there's a few things I want in return." Her pout turns into a smile. "One of my little beau's has been -cheating- on me again with a younger woman. I've already take care of procurement, but you were always so -good- at making them suffer."

"I do take pride in my work," you say.

Of course, that just gets your package even more irate.

"The second..." she gets a light shining in her eyes. "The next time you decide to go gallivanting off into the countryside, I want you to bring me back a present. Boy or girl, I don't really care, but they have to have that air of country innocence about them, you understand?"

>Field too long.

>>27131860

>Those terms are more than reasonable, Amelia.
>When do you want the boy to die? I'll have to schedule around it...
>I'm not quite sure when I'll get another chance for a sojourn to the Fangs...
>[OTHER]

>>27131704

Dark Knight would be better. Antipaladin means that we'd almost certainly have to kill her ourselves at some point.

Which would be fun in it's own way, but kind of wasteful overall.

>>27131830
As I see it, the reward is having broken a devout paladin. Nothing can compare to that, not even tourturing babies infront of their parents.

>>27131873

>Those terms are more than reasonable
>When do you want the boy to die? I'll have to schedule around it...

>>27131873
When do you want the boy to die? I'll have to schedule around it...

>>27131873
>Those terms are more than reasonable, Amelia.

"I do understand, as a matter of fact, and would be only so happy to oblige."

>>27131873

>Of course! Nothing could make me happier! That said, could you recommend a mage in town? One who possibly won't require brutal and immediate silencing after he divines the value of a few items for me?

That's assuming we don't know one already, of course. We seem to have a fairly good set of connections.

>>27131873
>Those terms are more than reasonable, when do you want the boy to... begin his long trip to the realm of death?

>>27131920
Seconded.

>>27131873
>When do you want the boy to die? I'll have to schedule around it...
>I will bring you a matching set, my darling dove. Pets live more fulfilling lives with a mate, after all, and twins are just so adorable. Maybe I can find some paladins...

>>27131873
"Of course Amelia. I understand quite well. There is something about the ones who believe in honest work. It may be some time before I next go into the countryside, but when next I do I shall bring you your present.

As for your beau, when would you like me to begin my work? It has been some time since I have had such a marvelous chance, I intend to draw it out for quite some time."

Once we have come to an agreement kiss her on the cheek and head downstairs to situate our paladin.

I was just looking at our stats in the last thread.

Holy fuck. We're literally superman. 22 STR unbuffed shouldn't even normally be possible for a human at our level. Even assuming +3 of that is from magical artifacts, 19 STR is still really high for our level, especially when combined with a DEX of 18 and INT of 16.

Not to mention the fact that if we have a +3 STR item on top of our kickass armour and glaive, then we've probably snapped the wealth allowance for our level in half.

>>27132041
If you look at the bottom of the character sheet it says we possess wealth in excess of Wealth Per Level because we're not a Caster to even things up a notch.

Besides, playing a Caster wouldn't be as fun.

>>27132041
We are an actual prodigy of misery, unlike the fools you read about in fairy tales.

>>27132041
The Orichalcum glaive alone is enough to break the WBL into a million pieces. Assuming we're thinking about Immortal's Handbook Orichalcum here, that thing could buy us a small country.

But hey, simple men, simple tastes.

Our anger gives us focus, makes us powerful.

>>27132070

Only because it would be too easy. Ironically, with such a high INT, we'd be a pretty decent caster. As is it, we just get a shitload of skill points.

>>27132041
Your starting stats were bought with 25 points:

16 STR, 16 Dex, 12 Con, 14 Int, 10 Wis, 8 Cha

You get a +2 to any from human, put into Strength, giving you

18 STR, 16 Dex, 12 Con, 14 Int, 10 Wis, 8 Cha.

You have 2 points from levels, both put into Strength:

20 STR, 16 Dex, 12 Con, 14 Int, 10 Wis, 8 Cha.

Those are your stats unbuffed. In addition, you have a Belt of Magnificence +2, giving a +2 enhancement bonus to all stats.

>>27132087

No, this is a homebrew I use in my personal campaigns. It only costs 50% more than Adamantine.

[Orichalcum]

A magically enchanted form of gold. Orichalcum is extraordinarilly rare in nature, occurring naturally only when a lode of gold intersects with a point where two or more leylines cross. Manufactured Orichalcum can be made through a ritual lasting two hours that expends spell slots equivalent to four spell levels, in which the crafter (or crafters) must succeed at a spellcraft DC of 10, 15, and 20 and a Profession (Smelter) DC of 10, 15, and 20.

Orichalcum weapons are always Masterwork Weapons, and count as Adamantine for the purposes of overcoming hardness and damage reduction. In addition, all Orichalcum Weapons are spell storing weapons - and are indeed so receptive to magic that a special option is available to wielders of Orichalcum Weapons.

When the weapon does not have a spell stored, its wielder may perform an Arcane Parry as an Immediate Action. An arcane parry may only be applied to spells that require an attack action, or are "Burst" type spells whose center is within a space threatened by the wielder. When targeted by such a spell, the wielder may make an attack roll using their highest Base Attack Bonus opposing the spell's Save DC, or the caster's attack roll, whichever was higher, taking a -5 penalty to the roll. If the Parry Roll is higher than the DC or Attack Roll, the weapon absorbs the spell, and stores it as per the rules for Spell Storing Weapons.

Orichalcum Armor functions as Adamantine Armor for the purposes of Damage Reduction. In addition, all spells cast on the wearer that have a set duration act as if the extend metamagic has been applied, harmful or beneficial. Wearers of Orichalcum Armor suffer a -2 penalty to their spell resistance, if they possess any.

Orichalcum Weapons and Orichalcum Armors are immune to any spells that target weapons or armor - harmful or beneficial. Due to the magically receptive nature of Orichalcum, the price of magical enhancements to such items are halved.

>>27132096
We've got good Int at 16, after magic items, and we also have really damn good Knowledge Arcana and Spellcraft, so we might not be able to cast spells ourself, but we know more about Magic than a lot of lower level casters.

>>27132132

That Belt is horrifically overpowered for our level.

And I mean that in the best possible sense.

>>27132167

So it's basically Adamantine- typically the best super material you'll find- with a + attached? Suits me fine.

>>27132171
We clearly do the kind of jobs andrun in the kind of circles that get us such wealth, which is a lot easier with zero scruples or respect for human life.

>>27131920
>>Those terms are more than reasonable, Amelia.
This.
>>27131873

>>27132132

So how do we stack up on a setting scale? Are there Elminsters walking around, or are we near the top in murder potential of individuals?

I'm guessing that we're way beyond the average villain at the very least. We've got too much style for anything else.

>>27132207

No, seriously. It gives +12 to our stats overall. That's Epic level stuff right there.

>>27132280
It gives +2, no?
Also, being mildly overpowered as an evil character is fun as fuck.

>>27132280
are you always this much of a sperg, or do you just hate fun in quests

We killed a whole party of adventurers last night. We are a solo encounter.

>>27132298

+2 to all stats. Which is +12 overall. That's incredible. That alone would be a reasonable wealth for a 10th level player.

And I agree.

>>27132330

>hurr durr I cant tell when someone is relishing how awesome something is

>>27132347
(They were CL 5s, to be fair)

>>27132280

Isn't like the magical item limits make any sense anyway. That and that is mildly overpowered in the short term. Which is awesome. Now for real overpowered go for a cheap ass build.

Lets get some normal person to suffer along with her. Then make her hate them via psyops. Let them betray her for slightly better treatment, etc. . .

Then, when she is at her lowest point and has tons of repressed rage, give her a chance to vent it all on that person.

>>27132396

Honestly I imagine some random gang of neckbeards right now being like.

"DM YOU DOUCHE!! Why are you dropping a CL+5 psycho on our ass already?

>>27132359
Wow, you must be amazed by Pathfinder's +6/+6/+6 Mental Headbands and Physical Belts...

No offense, but it's just a bunch of low level items in one slot. It's price is 25000 gp, a thousand more than the six +2 items. Hardly epic level. Hardly approaching 10th level WBL. It's practically standard issue at mid levels in 3.5.

>Get back to writing!
I hear ya.

>>27132442
I already did that last thread.

My only problem with this quest thus far is that we're prioritising the paladin over everything else.

Admittedly in the sense that we wish to corrupt her, but I still think having another long term goal would be good.

Otherwise, she becomes the focus of our adventures and down that path, waifu-induced redemption beckons.

>>27132442
>Well his CR says he's equal...

>>27132465

>>27132465
>Redemption
>Implying we can turn back
>Implying the mountain of bodies behind us isn't too high to climb

>>27132514
>implying we don't want to make that pile bigger
Being bad is just too much god damned fun.

>>27132465

>Waifu redemption.
>This crazy fuck.

..Nah no. Though for long term goals I imagine just spreading misery at the moment.

>>27132514
>Implying we aren't having too much fun, and redemption is boring

>>27132504

It'll start subtle, anon. We'll stop torturing innocents, and we'll excuse it with not wanting to waste time. Then we'll stop robbing people, talking about how they only have chump change.

Before you know, we're a grumpy anti-hero with a Paladin sidekick nudging us into being a decent human being, with whom we have consensual sex in the missionary position with intense handholding every night.

>>27132563

...Maybe we should just kill her and be done with it. Seriously. I can see her drawing the kind of person who'd support exactly this to the thread.

>>27132563
We can fill out our party with people like her, and replace them with the females of the adventuring party that killed them. We could also get into the conquest business if we wanted.

>>27132563
Why do you hate fun?

>>27132618
Ehhhhh, conquest leads to ruling, which means way to much "delegation" and not enough hands-on slaughter.

>>27132563
And they say we are the evil ones. Fucking sick and wrong.

>>27132642

I love fun. As long as it's wholesome and morally healthy!

>>27132592
....I think I might be one of those people.

>>27132649
It could also lead to war in the name of chaos on a world wide scale. Just for shitts and giggles.

>>27132563
Jesus fucking christ, how horrifying

>>27132618
I'd rather build a dungeon, advertise it to the nearest town, and wait to see how many idiot will enter it.

>>27132677
And that's why you will die first.

"Those terms are more than reasonable, Amelia. Though I must ask, is there a timeframe within which you want the poor boy dead? There are several ways that I could... prolong his suffering, but if you want him dead by a specific date..." You rub your chin, ignoring Blue's squirmings. Her mutters have died down to an almost sarcastic back talk, not that you can make any sense of it through the gag. "I'm probably going to be fairly busy over the next fortnight or so. I can schedule around it if need be, though letting a man stew in their own wounds can be a torture in and of itself..."

Amelia waves you off.

"Do as you will," she commands. "Just have it done before this spring turns to snow. And be sure to tell me when and where you'll be going about your work - you know how much I love to watch."

"Indeed," you say.

Tom turns to you, and slaps Miss Blue on the ass before beckoning you to follow. "I'll take you down to Dungeon Two then, so you can get your paladin friend all set and situated."

You've somewhat forgotten how big Amelia's Manse was since the last job you did for her - what was it, half a year ago now? The paintings in this particular wing of the manor, which leads down to dungeons, are all the sort that would have a common man stoned to death for public lewdness at best. At worst, portraits like the Rape of Helen would have them strung up for heresy and all their property confiscated. But for all Amelia's devotion to Crassus, she's quite the influential player at court.

>Field too long

>>27132781
>>27132781

The dungeons themselves are located underneath a series of well hung statues, the levers to trip them being exactly what you would expect. A flight of stairs down, and you find yourself within a cold and moist room, with a floor that feels as ices beneath your bare feet. There are seven cells within the dungeon. Which one do you drop off your captive within?

>One of the two with bars but no restraints. Let her move about for a bit.
>One of the two with a long chain collar, giving the most freedom of motion.
>One of the two with a cross, that binds the captive cruciform as per the Crassian Faith.
>The one with the adjustable manacles, where you can keep her arms raised and her toes on their tips.

>>27132754
Long term goals? Easy: we corrupt this paladin, then use her knowledge of her order to destroy it in the name of Tepes.

>>27132754
How about becoming the world's biggest asshole?

>>27132754
The original thought from thread 1 was to make her fall, leaving her broken physically, mentally, and philosophically, a fate much more evil than death

>>27132789
>>One of the two with a cross, that binds the captive cruciform as per the Crassian Faith.

This quest is right on the border of my fetishes. Okay no it's neck-deep in my fetishes. We captured a paladin, tied her up, now we're carrying her around and conversing about breaking her.

My loins are in a perpetual state of "Stirred, but not (yet) awakened"

>>27132781
>The Rape of Helen
Okay no. Back in a few.

>>27132789
>The one with the adjustable manacles, where you can keep her arms raised and her toes on their tips.

Let's keep her uncomfortable. You know how heroes like to try escaping if they have time to think.

>>27132789
>The one with the adjustable manacles, where you can keep her arms raised and her toes on their tips.

Also we won't be corrupted by good if we don't keep her as our waifu. We could just let her go after she is nice and evil. This is how non-mage characters summon a demon.

>>27132789
>The one with the adjustable manacles, where you can keep her arms raised and her toes on their tips.

Make sure that she can't put any weight on her toes. Let her hang for an hour or two and the tendons and muscles in her arms will be so weak she will be helpless.

>>27132789
Put her on the cross upside down, duh.

>>27132789
>The one with the adjustable manacles, where you can keep her arms raised and her toes on their tips.
She's still in a physical state capable of resisting, and as a paladin she'll probably try something rash if we give her half the chance. Let's not, at least not until she's been emotionally broken a little more. The restraints that place the most stress on the body are best, even if her divine healing powers will let her avoid the worst of it.

>>27132853
Nah, we want her barely on her toes, so she has to either hurt herself, or focus on just holding herself up

>>27132789
Let's start with just the bars and move her when she tries to sleep.

>>27132888
genius.

>>27132886
An upside cross means humility before god.

>>27132789
Definitely the adjustable manacles.

I was just about to ask what sort of torture device the Crassus holy symbol was, but I already suspected it to be a cross.

>>27132789
>The one with the adjustable manacles, where you can keep her arms raised and her toes on their tips.

We can always move her around later, but this would be a good start to induce fatigue. Better if we can give her an incentive to stand-tip to voluntarily...then she can break herself.

>>27132789
Ungag Blue and talk to her before deciding which one she gets put in.

"Hello there Blue. You see, you've been a bad girl, squirming, swearing, disobedience, and all sorts of unladylike things so we're going to have to put you in the dungeon to teach you some manners instead of letting you sleep in a nice soft bed, attended to by servants.

But now we have to decide where to put you. Where do you want to be put Blue? If you ask me very nicely I might even listen to you."

If she's not polite use the one with adjustable manacles and raise her up so she exhausts herself.

>>27132789
>>The one with the adjustable manacles, where you can keep her arms raised and her toes on their tips.
keep her in this one for day or two.

>>27132789
>>The one with the adjustable manacles, where you can keep her arms raised and her toes on their tips.

>>27132886
thats a great way to kill her

>>27132789
>One of the two with a long chain collar, giving the most freedom of motion.

>>27132789
>The one with the adjustable manacles, where you can keep her arms raised and her toes on their tips.

OP, we're having a hella time but please try not to make this whole thing about the paladin chick.
It should be like a fun repeatble sidequest, let us go back to gruesome explicit violence and unecessary cruelty.
Also tickle other fetishes

I've already voted, but one of the nice things about the adjustable manacles is that we have a clear and present method of punishment and reward.

If she's good we can lower her a bit and put her in a less exhausting position, if she's bad we can raise her up more.

>>27133019
aren't we putting her away so we can go do some other shit, like get an estate of our own?

>>27133019
Leave, brutality, come home, fun, leave, more brutal brutality, home, more brutal fun, rinse, repeat, go to sleep in the blood. Keeps all parties happy! Minus the victims of course, though I guess they do get to meet their gods of choice.

>>27133020
We need to attack her morals, not her well being, we need to release a bunny in her cell and get her to kill it for a loaf of bread or some shit

>>27133019
This. Lets butcher+rape some children in front of their parents.

>>27133020
not a bad idea. Speaking of which how will we be breaking her? Force her to choose between gradual escalating evil acts and let her rationalize it? Simple brute force Pavlovian conditioning?

>>27133019
Agree.

Well, aside from inserting fetishes, meh.

>>27133100
Too lowbrow. We can do better. Such as setting up a circumstance where the children end up murdering the parents. We're an artist, after all.

>>27133118
Little bit of both.

>>27133100
Pretty sure child raping is not happening on this quest.

>>27133139
We have an assload of loot to hock, let's do that and try to find some fun on the way

>>27133100

Too low brow. The correct answer is to have the kids chose which parent dies first. After beating grandpas rib cage in and forcing the kid to watch.

>>27133096
The point of that is making her well and truly internalize that we have power over her and that all of her morals and ideals mean nothing when someone else has control.

Also, the more exhausted she is the hungrier she'll be, the easier it'll be to push her to do bad things for her own survival and rationalize it.

>>27133118
Bit from column A, bit from column B, and also talking to her, getting her to realize that people don't care about her, that saving people is a waste of time. Nobody has come to save her, they've abandoned her to us. All the good she's done, all the people she's saved, none of this is coming to help her. And all the people she's saved, they weren't worth saving. They beg her for help, and the very next week they are cheating other people, or need saving again, and again. There's always going to be another group of bandits attacking people, another corrupt politician. All of her devotion is in vain and never did anything permanent.

>>27133187
One of the special little tykes gets said ribcage as a hat for a bit as well.

>>27133139
I do like that angle though, artistry is something we can focus on long term. Some sort of massive, gruesome edifice of evil - a tower built from the skulls of betrayed children perhaps. Something like that.

>>27133227
If by hat you mean surgically implanted unicorn horn...

>>27133236
A ground painting that can only be seen from 500' up in the air, done all in blood.

>>27133216
We should make up a story about being saved from orcs by a Paladin much like her - it taught us that the weak die save for the whim of the strong, and eventually made us what we are. Ask her how many of us she has made in her adventures?

>>27133242
If you by "surgically implanted" you mean "rib shoved into the forhead"

>>27133270
perfect

Convince her that her god has abandoned her and maybe fabricate some proof that the head priest of her order is a pedo.

>>27133297
Of course, but gently, cause we want the kid to live as long as possible, we're not MONSTERS are we?

>>27133328
>pedo
Really? We can do better.

>>27133330
yes we are

>>27133258
Combine the two and I think we have a winner. Maybe a massive blood painting in honor of our pantheon? Blood fountains on the skull-tower to rain gore on all who approach, baptizing them for the honor. Banners made from the flayed skins of high ranking good clerics. Ooh, sounds like we need to hire an architect.

>>27133354

Another thought - we present a child and parent to the Paladin. The Paladin chooses which one will live and which will die - otherwise both die. The Paladin will most likely pick the child. Then we inform her that the child will have to kill the parent to leave. Unless, that is, she's willing to do the deed herself. Cue fall.

You of course head for the far cell. Whilst you do respect Crassus and his teachings - what with him being divine drinking buddies with good old Papa Vladimir - you're not a strict adherent to His Faith. Besides, your friend Tom might get offended if you lash her to the thing improperly. He was always a stickler for those sort of details, back when you and he were raiding buddies. You'd impale villagers on pikes, he'd grab the ones that tried to flee and nail them to a cross, and the two of you would stop for prayer once you were done, offering your works up to your respective gods.

"Alright Blue!" you say, flopping her on the floor. You chuckle a bit as she tries to wiggle away like some kind of big titted worm. "I'm gonna be leaving for a little while, but this is gonna be your new home for now."

You untie the ropes around her arms. Were you feeling a bit more dramatic, you'd probably just cut it, but it's good rope you stole from that Yeoman, and you don't want to just waste it. She tries to throw a punch at you, but two days worth of being locked in the same position isn't exactly conductive to physical activity. You grab both of her arms, and lock them nice and snuggly into the... leather padded manacles.

Right. You did sort of forget that Amelia uses these dungeons for -pleasure- more than she does for pain. Oh well, it's not like chafed wrists were all that big a part of your plan, and this lets you fit the cuffs much more snugly than you would normally be able to.

In the spirit of these dungeon's original purpose, you decide that maybe one or two more humiliations would be appropriate. After adjusting the manacles to the position where you wanted them - raised well above her head, making her dance on her tiptoes to keep from hurting her arms - you pull out one of your daggers. Her eyes widen momentarily with that delightful fear of hers, before narrowing in defiance. Ready for whatever wounds you want to give her.

>Field too long.

>>27133421
Make sure to supply her with only a spoon to do the deed

>>27133439
Of course, you don't plan on wounding -her-.

Just her pride.

"You know, it get's a bit chilly down here at night," Tom tells you. "Your new pet might catch a cold like that."

"I've worked in 'a bit chilly' before," you've said. "So her nipples might be able to cut diamonds come the morning, I hardly see how that's any of my concern. Besides..." You grin wickedly. "She's a paladin. Paladin's are immune to diseases."

"Fair point," Tom says. "Well, I suppose you'll be off then."

You take a look at the now naked paladin, and nod. Maybe you'll pick up something for her while you're out, now that her fugly gray tunic and britches are all in tatters at her feet. You're actually surprised - she's not crying like she was the other day when you pretended to feed her her old companions. She's just glaring bloody murder at you. Which is good - you want her focussed on you as the source of -everything- that happens to her. Good or ill.

You leave, heading to...

Uses his position to sleep with the other paladins, rapes people he saves, actually is an atheist, hordes riches that should be going to charity AND is a pedo.

No wait guys I got it. After we sell all our phat loot we need to buy some enchanted shit to boost our diplomacy or whatever we think it will take. Then we give her the classic villain speech.

after the black market

>>27133448
Black market first, the armor would seem to be the "hottest" item we have, so we can use the grain in the cart to cover it up out of sight. Besides, who knows what me might see there for later?

>>27133461
I'd rather *show* her the truth of evil than just tell her about it. Charisma isn't exactly our strong suit. Now, something that helps with grappling might not be a bad investment after our run-in with that cleric.

>>27133525
We should kill some starving people by drowning them in it.

We should do things in this order. We can probably find interesting stuff to buy at the black market and in the magic district, for that we need cash.

>>27133562
I actually like this idea. We can do something creatively evil with the mundane shit we happen to have. Hire some really fucking poor people to haul the grain for us and then chop their hands off when they try to pinch some of it.

>>27133448
>The Magic District. There's a young wizard who owes you a favor or two...
Get our stuff checked out. Maybe pick us some good things for ourselves. After that head to the black market, warehouse, and bazaar.

Maybe we could pick up some nice humiliation tools for Blue while we're out.

>>27133579
Well, what do you want us to do? Spread our rank E luck all over her face?

>>27133608
And then feed them their own hands

>>27133628
donate them to the soup kitchens

>>27133562
>>27133608
I like the way you two think.

Though let's try not to cause too much obvious trouble in the city, since we've obviously got contacts here and likely will have a base here. Having the guard after us would be more trouble than it's worth.

>>27133608
I...actually kind of like this idea. It's not a definite that it'll happen, but it's not a bad plan. Or we can offer grain rewards for some sort of medieval bumfight death match. get betting going with the local bookie and get ourselves some cash off the suffering of others.

>>27133643
Well, we eventually need to corrupt them too.

We also need to put some ranks in disguise, for more of this lighthearted tomfoolery

>>27133581
This

>>27133643
If we went about it the right way I bet we could get away with killing some poor people. Poor people don't have rights in medieval fantasy settings. The guards would thank a fine gentleman like us for ridding their city of some gutter rat "thief".

>>27133750
>>27133679
>>27133650

Focus, focus. We're 'gleeful sociopath,' not 'inbred hill person.' We don't have to be dumb about our evil. We're In It to Win It, not to waste our (valuable) time.

>>27133448
>The Black Market. You know a guy, who could use a Achilles' Guard Disguise...

>>27133812
Soo...add a slow-acting poison to the grain before we sell it?

>>27133812
I thought we got this grain in the first place by slaughtering a whole farmstead full of people just cause we thought it was fun.

>>27133835
Don't shit where you sleep.

>>27133840
Exactly.

>>27133840
I think that's where he got the "Gleeful". The slow poison's not a bad idea if we can cover our tracks, but it's something that would require a bit of planning.

>>27133840
That's the gleeful part. And the initial quest hook. Whatever, don't look past the curtain.

>>27133835
We shouldn't shit where we eat, especially if it won't actually net us any money or prestige.

>>27133840

Yeah. Still this guy has INT 16 so doing something so blatant in the city seems unlikely. He might do it outside the city though. Or behind closed doors. But right now I think he cares more about da monies.

>>27133860
Then again, that's more the "evil merchant" route, it's not that in character at the moment. i recant my support.

>>27133835
What if we accident kill all our contacts?

>>27133835
Fuck no, or not at least without our contact knowing. We can't afford to piss of our contacts in this city (yet).

I don't think poisoning people in mass would be that fun. Like a single dude, that we could watch choke and suffer while his family looks on in horror and nobody knows what happened, that would be only time I would want to use poison to kill.

>>27133903
Or it gets into our own food at some point.

>>27133903
Why not just a poison that causes misery without death, like a light case of food poisoning? We could take advantage of the general malaise to get away with stuff we wouldn't otherwise. Just an idea though.

Lets sell out shit, and get out of here. City melodrama is boring. We should go and desecrate that temple from earlier...maybe steal some priestesses. I want a harem of broken, evil ex-holy warriors.

The Black Market is first on your list of places to be. Fortunately, it's not really a place, and more of a state of mind - actually, no, that's horse shit. But the point is, there are so many contact points for this Black Market throughout the City of Oblastgrad that almost every good that you purchase here has been through it at some point or another. After sipping tea with Amelia and her... fourteenth, you think... husband as is only polite, you iron out the details and favors you'll be doing for her in exchange for temporary lodgings, and are on your way.

The nearest contact point is well within walking distance, so you leave the dead yeoman's wagon with one of Amelia's stablehands. The walk there is hardly unpleasant, though there is a distinct lack of back alley ways for you to kill someone in. Thinking on it, that's probably a good thing, as you'd like to avoid having the guard pressing on you.

You mean, you could escape the city and kill everyone they sent after you, but you sort of want to set up a 'home base' here to keep your pets and your lucre.

"John Jacob Jamison!" you declare, stepping into a rather posh and well to do shop. All sorts of knick-knacks line the counters and windows - fine porcelain dishes from the Coast, brass clockwork from the Sandlands, bear fur rugs trapped fresh from the Fangs, and of course textiles made here in the City. Not a place you usually find yourself in, though you suppose you might be giving him some legitimate business once you buy yourself some land.

"Is that - it is!" The shopkeeper - Johnny, as you like to call him - says. He's part happy to see you, part utterly terrified of your presence; about as comfortable as anyone else who's never gotten into a scrap is about you. "By the Parthenon it's been too long, man! How were the fangs?"

>Field too long

>>27133946

Nah. It just doesn't feel right so far. I can see him doing it in say a random village or something in the middle of no where for kicks. But not in a place where he has contacts. After all in the long term it is much more fun to cause suffering though slavery and the likes.

>>27133949
I disagree, city melodrama is the most entertaining. Combat is a business, not a passion.

We should find a hobby while we're here. How about we find a basilisk or cockatrice or medusa and we start the hottest new statue trend?

>>27133969

"Auspicious," you declare, with a wide toothy grin. "Many good fights, many poor fights. Found myself a lovely little hawk that I want to going falconing with; still got to break her in though." You lean in, conspiratorially. "An' I also found a thing or three that ol' Trent MacFarlane might be interested in. You haven't seen him around, have you?"

"He's... he's on a job..." Johnny says, nervous.
>What sort of job? The fun kind or the not so fun kind?

Chaotic. It would be less of a comedy if lawful or neutral I think. We aren't motivated by ambition or greed or power, except so far as they let us do as we please. Evil is fun.

>>27134098
Hah! What is this "plans" you speak of?

>>27134140
>>27134158
yea...but I think that going around and poisoning random people is boring and pointless. I guess you'r right. How about short term plans? Sell loot, buy items, break Blue?

>>27134158
Eh, we can still do some planning and stuff.

We're no chessmaster, but we're far from stupid. And sometimes art requires a little planning.

>>27134152
Keep in mind that that's not what chaotic means. The Drow are Chaotic Evil, and that's an extremely rigid society, but one built on treachery and power climbing by guile and viciousness.

Being gleefully evil is a personality, not an alignment.

>>27134170
I share your sentiments, brother. Poisoning some prole "because we can," isn't very satisfying.

Short term plans are "make money smoke weed get bitches." Sell the loot, generally annoy Blue.

I think we should loot/murder/extort/scheme/etc our way to a nice penthouse in a respectable and wealthy part of the City. That, or we consider a move to a larger trade hub/population center.

>>27134170
Break blue is more of a long term endeavor I think. It's like our downtime between bouts of joyous evil for its own sake. Shep talks to his crew after a mission, we torture a paladin - same thought process.

>>27134201
I like how casually you equate torture to debriefing. You get it!

We do have some peasants to kidnap for the Marquessa as well.

I think the original post last night established fairly well what kind of evil we are.

>It's all so picturesque - the very portrait of a proud and honest yeoman's homestead.

Or, well, it would be if you hadn't just finished slaughtering the yeoman and his family. Well, to be completely fair, you didn't kill -all- of them. You made the Yeoman and his wife choose which of their children they wanted to live, and then made them do the deed for shits and giggles.

>>27134197
>That, or we consider a move to a larger trade hub/population center.
That's probably The Capital, where there's no way we could get away with smuggling Blue in.

>>27134152

Yep. Chaotic evil. My favorite alignment if played smart.

Problem is most people really suck at making good Chaotic evil.

Yeah, there's a part in "Grunts" where a couple of halflings murder a family and then roast the baby for kicks and to throw the guards off the trail. All for a quick robbery, that's kind of what I envision us to be. Escalating basic evil acts to something bigger and grander.

The City of Oblastgrad is about as big as any city you're going to get on the continent. The Capital is the only one that can compare, and it's only bigger because it's essentially a walled in -country-. Fuckin' fascists everywhere in there, too, always detecting evil and whatnot. High and mighty little shits who consider themselves the "last bastion of Law and Justice."

"Johnny, what's the matter?" you ask the man. "'Cause you're fuckin' quiverring in your boots over there, and I don't much care for it. Some rookie chucklefuck on the guard refuse his bribe? That happens sometimes. You sell out the market? Well then I'd have to kill you; but I know that you're not the type." You look him dead in the eye, and oh sweet Tepes the punk is all but sobbing. "Oh bloody fucking hell, Trent went and did something -stupid- didn't he?"

The fence is now visibly shaking. Reminds you kind of like how that halfling was before you went and cut his fat wizardly head off. You wonder if... you don't have a set, but you're fairly sure that if you gave the man a set of - was it Moroccos? That gourd and rice instrument. But yah, if you gave the man a set of those, you could probably bust out a smooth little jig to the sound of his fear.

"Yeah... he... he..." Oh great, now the man -is- sobbing. Or, well, stuttering, which is one step below.

"Okay. Here's what we're gonna do, Johnny," you say. "You're going to tell me where Trent is and what the balls he's gotten up to that's making you piss yourself, or I'm going to cut out your tongue out and feed it to my pet hawk, savvy?"

Actually, you might just find a tongue or two and feed it to Blue anyways. That would be hilarious.

"He's gone nuts, man, nuts!" Johnny says. "He took over and... and started making loans to folks desperate enough to go to him - and I can understand torturin' them, or even outright killing them. But he's takin' it out on their -kids- man... I... I don't want any fucking part of this, man... just... he's at Fourth and Sven, last I heard.

This man is an artist.

I think rather than make her actually enjoy evil, we simply need to make make her commit evil of her own free will. Maybe even let her even think what she's doing is an act of defiance against us. Once we make her do something truly awful and she's all "oh no what have I done?", if she's not driven to suicide, we let her wallow in self-loathing for a while before coming up with an amusing way to off her.

Making her into some sort of dark knight or antipaladin isn't as fun and will just lead to waifuing.

No, no no. As long as she can rationalize it, it won't have an impact on her. Make her have another prisoner who is a dick to her, and drives her temper up to the wall. Who keeps selling her out for minor amounts of better treatment while she takes the noble route. Her anger will build, and build, and build, and then we give her a weapon and a chance to vent.

We could condition an addiction to something evil into her. Food contains a addictive drug, feeding time coincides with torture time for dude in cell next to hers. Eventually feed her occasionally with out the drug in it, and without torturing the guy. She will figure out she feels like shit whenever she doesn't get to hear a guy scream in agony every day. Then lead into some subtle scenario where she can hurt somebody her self while she is jonesing.

"Oh I do hope you haven't told the guard about any of this, Johnny," You say, smiling pleasantly. "Why, if you did, well the old eidetic is that 'snitches get stitches', if I do recall correctly. And well, if anyone but -me- hears about this sort of thing happening... I'm a devout follower of Papa Vladimir. A ripped out tongue fed to my pet hawk is gonna be the least of your concerns, understand." You rap him on the forehead with your knuckles, like an older brother chastising his younger sibling. "Well, then you might wish that you had kids that I could take things out upon...

"Thanks for the info, Johnny! Fourth and Sven... Fourth and Sven... that's down by the docks, isn't it?"

Johnny nods, the light of fear strong in his eyes. You clap him on the shoulder, turn around, and walk out of the shop, waving pleasantly. Right as you hit the door, you stop for a beat, a thought running through your mind.

"Wait a tick!" You call back to him. "You don't have kids, right? That'd be awkward right there, it would!"

There isn't a response. You suspect the poor fellow may have passed out behind the desk. Either that, or he's locked himself in his office to go quiver under a mountain or three of paper work. Either way, you don't have much use for him any more - you -could- just torch the place, if you really wanted to. Of course, Johnny's probably in with the Merchant's Guild these days, and they've got a habbit of not letting things go, if you cross them.

Smart. You...

That one didnt get used because it was a shitty start by comparison. The one from yesterday had a better hook and decent art on the OP.

>>27134942
Pretty much this.

>>27134882
Maybe because it went up at 6 AM and OP realized not enough people were on?

Or maybe it wasn't even OP, but he saw it and stole it for later? Different tripcodes, after all. Or maybe that's because he felt he could draw in some of the HP Nasu audience if he used the same tripcode. If so, that worked.

>>Get your Cart and head to the Warehouse.
That one, We might need to bail trent out, we might be evil, but a man needs friends, besides that cart isn't doing a lick of good just sitting there

While you would very much like to go down and congratulate good ol' Trent for finally joining you and Tommy in the murdering people and their kids for shits and giggles club, Fourth and Sven is down in the docks. As you actually had hopes of getting something done besides dropping the slut off at Amelia's, going to the docks is a none-option. It's no where near any of the other things that you were planning to visit, except the far side of the Magic District. The Bazaar is closest, but even that's better traveled by wagon than by foot, and if you go back for the cart, you may as well sell off the Grain to Wintram.

Besides, if he's in charge now, Trent might have something interesting for you to do. And interesting things, often enough, require you to be able to move large amounts of goods or chattel from one place to another.

The walk back to the Manse is every bit as dull as the walk to it; you understand Amelia's desire for seclusion from the denser areas, but you don't particularly like it. The Warehouse District is mercifully close, only about fifteen minutes by your cart. You know a guy who will give you decent money for the grain - you've used his warehouse for certain procedures on more than one ocassion.

Unfortunately, the guy he posts outside of his place seems to have caught a sudden case of death. A quick look tells you that the poor sod died of bladed weapon to the throat - or magic that mimics such. You sigh - you're not going to be able to sell this bloody grain, if some chucklefucks are killing the people you plan to sell to.

The best option to take here is to...
>Head into the Warehouse, see what the devil is going on in there.
>Take a closer look at the dead fellow. [Roll 1d20]
>Try to sneak a peak through a crack or a window, if you can find one. [Roll 1d20]
>[WRITE IN]

Better to offload shit before we get potentially bogged down with some child-killing fuckheads quest.

I wanted to...for about 20 minutes. I occupy that frustrating space between "having ideas," and "But I don't possess the urge or desire to do something with them, although I feel like I would like to."

feels bad. I think it would've been a neat quest.

When we're pretty much making her do it, it's fairly easy for her to rationalize. The other prisoner idea is good, but I think I'd be better we subtly set up the opportunity for the deed so that it ends up being something she can't rationalize as being part of one of our tortures. Act happy and surprised when we "find out" what she did and taunt her about it.

Interesting but ultimately unworkable idea with several flaws, one of which is Detect Evil.

Okay, no. Dead guard outside of a warehouse known for having sketchy shit go down inside of it? Either someone forgot to send you an invitation - in which case you are well within your rights as a villain to get your murder going - or someone is trying to get an in on your territory. In which case, -you are well within your rights to get your murder going-! You don't bother sneaking around or checking the dead guy out - there are few enough people in the world who could actually pose a threat to you that you don't feel the need to bother.

You just pull out your glaive from your quiver. You check your hair in the blade's reflection - got to make sure it's of sufficient 'devilish handsomeness' before you make your dramatic entrance. Satisfied, you wind up your leg...

And kick the door off of it's hinges.

"HEY GUYS!" You announce to warehouse. "WHAT'S GOING ON IN HERE?"

You can pretty much tell. Let's see - people in a bunch of creepily matching robes, eldritch symbology painted in what is no doubt goat's blood, candles everywhere to give dramatic lighting. They must have gotten a discount virgin, though, because the person hogtied in the center of their alter isn't a naked hot chick. It's some fat smelly guy with a beard growing out of his neck.

Still naked though. And you sort of wish he weren't, as now that mental image isn't going to leave your head for a while, and -boy howdy- is it unpleasant.

"Champion of the Righteous!" One of the robed guys says, pointing at you with a bony finger. "You were foolish to come alone! Soon, our ritual will be complete, and the darkness that we shall summon forth shall wash over this world, painting it with misery and suffering."

>Field is too long.

>>27135509
>Neat. I'm sure you're parent's are proud of you.
>Mind if I grab some popped corn? That sounds like it'll be fun to watch.
>Okay guys, I'm fairly sure you're doing this ritual wrong. The fat ugly one is supposed to be wearing the most elaborate robes, to make up for his fat ugliness. The -hot- one with the nice tits is supposed to be on the alter.

"Excuse me? That's my job. This is my territory. If you send a demon rampaging through the area, do you know how much that's going to cause security to tighten up around here? And if that happens, it's going to seriously cut in on my opportunities to have fun and fence my ill gotten gains.

Grab the dead guy and pull him in here and close the door behind us.

"Look, I'm just trying to sell some grain I picked up to a contact of mine. Do you know where he is?"
