You decide that sabotage and subterfuge are the best way to knock the legs out from under the Republic. If you keep your head down and only strike when the time is right, you can watch them crumble from the safety of your own bunker. The question is, where should that bunker be?

A) Keep the mansion as your base of operations
B) Uproot and hide out under their noses
C) Other

What locations can we set up a new hideout that is remote from both Republic and Empire control?

>>29662588
You think the best idea is to leave the mansion behind for now and take up a better, closer hiding place. When you return from the lab you spend a while with Helda, and once things slow down, you explain to her the plan. She doesn't like leaving the house behind, but you tell her that if things work out you can always come back. She is still reluctant.

The next few days you spend taking stock of what you'll need to bring with you. Helda stuffs everything, equipment, comforts and luxuries into a single hand bag, an heirloom or Arco's. The bag holds more than you could ever need to bring along. Just about the only thing that couldn't fit is the mansion itself, and really the only reason you don't try is to avoid being conspicuous. Once you are sure you've got everything, and Helda is laced up in the travel dress she insisted on wearing, you both leave the house via the chair and head to the Republic.

You arrive in a dark alley, dimly light by the sunrise. People are just now waking up, and they won't be likely to notice the two of you so long as you try to stay subtle. Helda complains about missing breakfast for the trip, but you wonder if it isn't better to find a place to stay first and foremost.

A) Find somewhere to have a nice meal
B) Find a temporary dwelling
C) Appropriate a home
D) Other

We did, it was a great movie and she positively loved it.

I wonder if we could uproot the mansion? It's really just a bunch of rooms, what we store in them is the important part. And since it doesn't have any doors no one will notice if we move out/in.

As to messing with the republic, all you need to do is mess up that irrigation. No water, no life.

>>29662797
>A) Preferably an inn

>>29662830
>>29662839
The two of you walk the streets for a while, familiarizing yourself with the area while also building up a big appetite. The people of this town seem content, but none of them do much but go about their own business in silence and solitude. Easy to break.

You come to an inn eventually, a decent looking place made of genuine brick and mortar. Helda refuses to stay in any place that doesn't have heated walls, and you don't blame her. You approach the front door, but as you enter you are stopped by a bald man in an apron, who until then was sweeping the place up.

"I'm sorry, we aren't open yet and there are no vacancies. You'll have to come back later today."

You're not hungry later, you're hungry now.

Well most of these spells were invented a long time ago, when magic as primitive. The fact that you created a whole new one is enough to have your own chapter in a textbook. But most of your spells are noticeably stronger, just not overpowered. Remember that this is RP based, not numbers based, so as long as something makes the story more interesting it'll probably fly.

You walk behind the counter and take two mugs down from the shelf. You fill them to the brim, then scrape off the foam and head back to the booth. When you place the mugs down, Helda sighs something about wanting a classier drink, but you assure her that local businesses need support more than large vineyards. You both nurse the drinks until the food comes: pancakes, eggs, sausage, and hashed potatoes. You're as full as a lumberjack, and Helda can't even get through all of it when you set your forks down. With that out of the way, it's time to focus on the next step.

The two of you wipe your mouths and leave the tavern behind, as the owner still scratches his head and wonders who you were. You follow the roads up to the classier side of town with Helda hanging onto your arm. You seem to be getting a few looks from people, but after a while you realize it's nothing but curious eyes noticing your intimacy and Helda's overly golden dress.

Around noon, once the meal has been worked off, you and Helda settle on a large hotel near the center of town. It is made of white brick and is sturdy as a fort. There is even a doorman at the front beneath an awning, ready to deny you entrance. With little actual gold, you can't buy your way in, and doing so would leave a trail anyway. You approach the door and watch as the large man steps in your way.

You think it would be better not to start too much trouble on your first day in town, and so you grab Helda by the waist and lead her away. She asks what changed your mind, and you explain that hiding where nobody would look doesn't work if you announce your presence to everyone.

You head back to the lower end of town and find the industrial district. There you two find a warehouse, locked up and boarded. The smell isn't fantastic, and the neighbors aren't great, but it'll have to do. You melt the lock off of the front door and have Helda Bar it to make sure nobody comes in. With a lot of Mending, the inside of the place starts looking more cozy. You need a short rest after all the work, and so you leave Helda to handle the decorating while you lay down and think.

Helda begins taking the basics from the handbag. She sets up a miniature lab in the main room, as well as a bedroom in the office, and a kitchen/dining room in the corner. It's not much to look at, but nobody will notice it and it provides what you need. You yourself lie down on a fainting couch that Helda thought to bring so she'd have somewhere to read while you 'ignored her'. You do feel bad about putting so much before her lately, but work isn't work because it's fun. After setting down the furniture, Helda begins drawing up the pre-cooked rituals to shield the place from wandering eyes. Nobody will see anything out of the ordinary when they look at the warehouse, but it won't stop them from noticing if they happen to find a way in. Helda finishes around 3 o'clock, and walks over to you on the couch.

You hold your arms out to Helda and she slides on top of you. You nearly forgot what it feels like to simply stop worrying and enjoy the quiet. You embrace and coo for a few hours, until the sun is nearly set. By then you've both had your fill of nose rubbing and decide it's time to get something done. Helda begins brewing some red and blue for later, and you don your cloak. It's time to put your ear to the ground.

You say goodbye to Helda, promising to be back by dinner, and head out. The cloak Arco gave you helps greatly as you wander the area and listen in on the local workers. Most of their talk is just mundane jabber, but you do hear many of them complaining about the work to pay ratio lately. It seems the war effort is putting extra strain on production. You hear quite a few men complaining about working overtime as well. An interesting note.

You come to a rather important looking dock with a rather important looking ship tied to it. There are men unloading large wooden crates stamped with the insignia of the Republic. You come in for a closer look, and determine that they must be arms and armor for the new recruits joining the military. There are also a few crates of brewing ingredients.

It'd be easier to get people to follow him with fear.
If you want people to do as he wishes he should either just go right on and take down the leadership, and stop this "guerrilla sabotage" thing, there's no point to this unless he gathers followers.

>>29666172
And by fear I mean Fear.

But yeah, I don't see any point to this, it'll only give them minor annoyances, unless the point is to get followers. But then there's no way of getting followers if they don't know what to follow, so he either preaches to the masses and does propaganda or doesn't do this shit at all.

You sit on the edge of the dock, watching the water for a while. Soon the sun sets and night falls. As you sit on the dock, you her one of the workers say that they've brought down the last crate, and are ready to bring them ashore and store them. You stand up and dust off the seat of your pants. You start walking back up the dock, and as you do, you snap your fingers and every single crate glows red hot. The wood burns to ash, and the steel is turned into a bubbling puddle in less than ten seconds. The crew of the ship scream and panic as they watch the entire load melt away.

The center of town is full of tall buildings and beautiful architecture and decoration. There are oil lamps burning on every corner, where in the lower quarter there would only be the light of the moon and stars. The people hear are dressed in luxurious clothes and walk with valets and dogs on leather leashes. Even the air seems cooler at night, which is explained when you discover a few vents that seem to draw the cold from somewhere else in the city.

The calling card of the too well off if you've ever seen it. You duck behind a corner and Beast yourself into a bird to tail it.

It stops in front of a large house with a lovely driveway leading to the front door from the gate. Of course the gate is no problem when you fly.

You're startled to find that most of them are working as a criminal sentence. They mention being given the choice between exile to an island, or working their years off in service of the government. Quite an odd sort of punishment. Others talk about the lady of the house striking the maids, and the master drinking himself into a stupor over his failure to make the President's cabinet, whatever that is. Finally, you piece together enough information to learn that the family safe is hidden beneath a desk in the study. That may come in handy.

You wonder why someone would keep a bunch of them locked up, until you look closer and see that they're actually buttons, from military uniforms. The master of the house must be a collector. You Drag them back to the warehouse, rinse, and repeat.

The study is located downstairs and through a set of doors. A man in uniform guards it. There must be powerful state knowledge inside. Sadly, there is no carpet here, so remaining as a spider is risky at best. One look at you and you'll be squashed. But reverting back to human form isn't a great idea either.

You drop to the floor in human form. At first the guard seems merely puzzled by your sudden appearance. Then you Reach out and place your third hand on his face, blinding him with Shade. He struggles, but you pull him over and deliver a blow to his stomach that takes the wind out of him. You follow up with a strong blow to the back of the neck and he falls, alive but in for some serious headaches. You adjust your cloak and walk in the door to the study. It's exactly as you assumed it would be, except for the fat man in a suit snoring behind the desk. The desk you need to move to get to your prize.

You approach the snoring man. You reach your hand back, then drag it across his face. He is startled, and you pull the Shade over his eyes. He begins to scream, but you cover his mouth. You tell him to be silent, or die. He clams up, and you explain to him exactly what will happen if he doesn't cooperate. When you finish, you notice an odd smell, and look down. He soiled himself. You kick over his chair, and tell him to give you the safe combination. He whines it, and you slide the desk aside to get to the safe. Inside is a literal pile of gold and other valuables. Most of the papers are easily traceable, so you leave them behind. The rest you pile up in your cloak and prepare to transport. Before you leave, you mark your success on the wall.

With a little elbow grease, you use your nail to carve your signature into the wood paneling of the study. You release the Shade on the fat man, and bring all the loot back to Helda. You arrive just in time for hot soup and a mission complete kiss. You eat your fill, and think on what to do with all of your gains. It would be foolish to dump it all out at once, or to just toss it from the rooftops. Perhaps there's some way to invest it.

>>29669781
After dinner you and head off to bed with Helda. As the two of you lay embracing, Helda asks if there isn't some way she can help you without being stuck inside all day. There isn't time to teach her much more magic. Still, it's not like she's helpless.

You tell her that what you have to do is too dangerous for her to be involved in. People will die, and there will be blood in the streets before the job is done. You tell her that if anything goes wrong, you want to be sure that she isn't dragged down into hell alongside you. She kisses your cheek and presses herself up against you, running her hand across your bare chest.

"No place could be hell if I was alongside you."

For the next few days, your operations go off without much trouble. You tail the rich and loot their homes without so much as a finger raised against you. It gets easier even. It's as though they're too ashamed of their loss to even report your likeness to the authorities. But people are aware. You mark has to be cleaned my maids and servants all over town. And if there's one thing the rabble is good at, it's spreading the good word. Nobody is sure what to make of your actions yet, but soon that will change. Your stash has grown too large to ignore now, and it's time to cash in. Helda goes into town to liquidize the assets a little at a time, and soon you have in your possession nearly 110,000 gold. It's time to put it to work.

You slice the pile in half and have Helda sort half into small bags while you take the other half. She refuses, but you promise that if she does you the favor, you'll spend the next two days completely alone and together. With that, you head to the factories to start spreading the wealth. You rain coins down from rooftops, upon mothers and children all slaving for a wage. You rain them upon dock workers, breaking their backs to haul crates of wine and fine food they'll never get to taste. When the sack is empty, you return to the warehouse to grab the rest of the bags. You spend the night dropping sacks of coin down chimneys, into pockets of coats left out to dry, and any other crack where it might fit. It takes all night to finish, but when you're done you get to listen to the elated shouts and screams of the people as they discover their new found savings, each tucked in a bag Chalked with your signature.

You return to the warehouse tired, but smiling. You enter the bedroom and find Helda lying on the bed, half naked and displaying herself. Asleep. You feel slightly ashamed.

You head into the lower quarter and begins walking the back alleys. You mark walls all over with a short speech on yourself and your goal to end cruelty, and the war. You pledge to overthrow the government and bring happiness. Whether or not it's true isn't important. What's important is that the people are angry enough to join together and lift you into power.

With that done, you decide its time to start taking stock of what your opponent has over you.

You continue your crime spree across the upper quarter. This time, things aren't as easy. Law enforcement is trying to intercept you, but they have no way to counter your stealth spells, and no idea of who you are or how you operate. Furthermore, none of the lower class folk is willing to rat you out. It seems word on the street is that 'Arco' has a hit out on anyone who gives up his identity. It's not true, but you aren't going to tell them that. The money you rake in goes half to the people, and half to a fund to buy needed supplies when the time comes to let slip the dogs of war.

After a couple of months, you've bled the rich dry, save for the capitol building, but you think you've got more than enough to get started.

You head up to the commercial quarter to start looking through buyers. It seems like most of the big producers are contracted with the military. Dealing with them means risking having your cover blown. Your only choice seems to be placing small orders with each of the smaller vendors to get things done. You spread the gold and order as many sets of chainmail, bows and shortswords as you are able. It will take a month or two before all the orders are ready. In the meantime, you set to gathering information on the military's capability.

It is very difficult to learn much just through eavesdropping. All you can determine after a month of wandering the upper quarter is that the closer one is to the center of the city, where the capitol building is, the more guards are present and the better armed and trained they are. One top of this, there is an entire platoon of mages with minor spells that serve as artillery. They would cut through your own forces like a cake, so you'll need to deal with them before the big day. Finally, there is supposed to be someone quite powerful guarding the president. Nobody is willing to part with information on them other than they seem to be a one man army all by themselves. It's not much information, but it's something.

A) Stay subtle until your orders are filled
B) Try to get information directly
C) Retreat to the warehouse for now
D) Other

can we research any clairvoyance magic?

>>29672263
oh, another idea.
If clairvoyance isn't an option, we can always go stalk government officials, find sensitive info that they may be hiding.

Additionally, that island prison that was talked about earlier seems like the perfect place to spring political dissidents

>>29672369
You've been stalking officials. But all the important business is done where you can't get in, that's the point I was making. The island is viable though.

>>29672403
that's a good start

>>29672369
You decide to investigate more about the island of exiles you heard about before. What little you know about it is that most felonies are punished either by exile to the island, or indentured servitude. Most people choose to be what are basically slaves for a few years, even though it seems that the actual law enforcement system is structured to generate free labor. The island however seems to be home to the most dangerous and spiteful criminals that the state has to offer. So a perfect place to do some recruiting. You put your ear to the ground and learn about a ship that takes the sentenced to the island and dumps them out in the water off shore. It's probably your best bet at getting there.

A) Stow away
B) Commandeer the ship

>>29672531
>>29672546
On the appointed day, you pack up a small bag with rations and water, go a few rounds with Helda, and then make your way to the docks to find the ship headed for the island. It's easy enough to slip on board. All you need to do is confound some of the guards and convince them you're a shipwright sent to maintain the ship before it launches. Once inside, you hide in an empty barrel on the deck with your supplies and Meditate to pass time most of the way. You only pull yourself out of the trance a few times a day to have some dried beef and water.

The island is only about a hundred miles off of the coast. A few days by ship, but impossible to swim. The ship anchors about 200 yards away from the shore of the relatively small island. They begin shoving prisoners off of the side and telling them to sink or swim. Not all of them have a choice.

You Step out of the barrel and land on the deck of the ship. You take just a moment to stretch before diving into the water, but unfortunately this brief moment is enough to raise an alert among one of the crew members. Just as you are leaping off the side of the ship, you hear someone shout at you, and call for your apprehension. You make it into the water though, and stay mostly submerged until you get to the island. You emerge just off the shore and drag yourself ashore, gasping for air. Your eyes sting a bit from the seawater.

Suddenly you hear bells, and sit up to see that the ship is putting all hands to deck.

You make a dash for the treeline, looking back behind you to see what may occur. Red balls of flames shoot from the ship up into the sky. You aren't sure what they are, until they come roaring down and collide with the beach, causing massive explosions and sending up clouds of sand. You keep running as the jungle behind you starts to get bombarded with fireballs, knocking over trees and setting small fires. Eventually the attack stops, and you have time to sit and catch your breath. You find a rock to sit on, and drink some water. Seems like they know someone is here who shouldn't be, but they won't risk coming ashore when the criminals inhabiting the island could take over the ship. You're safe, if only for now.

You hear rustling in the grass and shrubs nearby. Something too big to be a predator.

A) Draw your axes

C) Other

>>29673358
>A) Draw your axes

>>29673374
You stand up and draw your axes from the sling on your back. You prepare to face whatever may emerge from the brush. That is until you hear the rustling in another direction. You turn to face the new noise, but again it changes position. Soon it's everywhere at once, and you have nowhere to run.

Then, from one of the bushes rises a tall and lean man with ebony skin and odd looking tattoos. He holds a rough spear in his hands, similar to the one you made all that time ago when you were arguing with Helda. You raise your weapons and tell him to stand down, but he only raises his hands in a gesture of peace. Then more men, all hairy and tattooed, come out of hiding. They seem deathly serious, but not exactly hostile. The first man slowly approaches you, hands still raised, but with no anger in his eyes. Then he speaks.

"Don't worry. I know you aren't a prisoner, and you aren't a guard. We don't want to hurt you, so long as you don't try to hurt any of us. My name is Afrikanus Scipio. This is Exile Island."
