Anyway, the shinigami made a council made of ‘Oh, must protect humanity,’ ‘We are doing fine for now, the world is ending’ and ‘Arrancars who just work here.’ You can guess which group likes you and which doesn’t. You saw Hayato and he mentioned thanking Short-Fin for getting Nobuhiko. That was a thing.

Anyway, you think about your next stage of planning and decide to

As last time, questions concerns, comments, discussing butts, or spending SPXP here. Will grab a shower then come back, answer what I can, then get started.

CHANGELOG

>For abilities that are direct upgrades/branches off of an earlier power, I put them under it and indicate the connection by adding a >. Laughter Wavelength was moved up to the core powers.
>Added an Artifacts section since it looks like we're going to be collecting the things.
>Edited the description of Raijin's Drums. Consider using the new one for the Divine Items paste as well.
>Indicated that Rape Island is also known as Bardwah's Folly
>Added the Thunder Drums to Assets
>Added a Third Release Charges section to indicate whether or not we have a use available. (how many can we build up max, btw? Only 1?)
>Minor reformatting of the go-juice section, mainly involving the 2* affected by IANtHaS
>Added 'SC' after the (5*) under Speed to indicate that it is from Shapechanging and not our first release.
>Physical strength section reformatted. Tails Only section removed and replaced with standard boost on release notation as it was redundant after acquisition of Define "leg" which makes the strength boost apply to everything.
>Description of Regeneration ability changed to more accurately reflect use in-quest.
>Description of Between the Reels changed to attempt to more accutately indicate the manner in which it functions.
>Reiryoku(Spirit energy/go juice) changed to just say Go-Juice.

What's next on our To-Buy list?

Sword and Shield? Wing Assault? Zero?

>>33339506
Zero is my want. S&S would also be acceptable.

>>33339325

Is time trial automatically used during combat? Or do we have to specify that we want to use time trial?

Going to start a fap-fic series based on a world where we accepted the 1 and fell hard.

Anything you want to see? Starting with azzy and thinking about Jager or Ryoko next.

>>33339354

>>33339554
Ryoko next. Then Jager. Then enter the womb that birthed humanity.

>>33339611
>>33339631
I'll see what I can do

>>33339354
[x] Search for more God stuff online because you need to get gud
[x] Ask Jager to find Lola for us
Weren't we going to ask Jager to find Lola, since she's good at finding things for us to eat?

>>33339614

Hmm. If we manage to pull this off in just the right way, it could be a subtle way of gaining worship amongst the younger people of Japan.

Of course, it wouldn't be a lot of worship if we wanted to keep it underground. But it'd be better than nothing. Unless we can market it and harness it into a trend or craze.

>>33339477

Wait, either OP has dropped his trip or someone other than him is controlling the pastebin.

>>33339739

This is going to end in an reenactment of mahou shoujo of the end, isn't it?

>>33339775

Except that the pastebin is by Guest and not from Azure's account.

>>33339775
I am not Azure. I make edits to the pastebin periodically to try to clean things up/reformat/etc. and then I ask him to look over the changes and implement the ones that work. He still does most of the work.

Maybe ask Asmodeus if she has any demons who are into death matches, because Caede seemed to say that her breed is the kind most likely to have Masochism.

>>33339775
None of those were changes to the functions of abilities or our actual stat values from what I can tell. It all seems to be rewording and reformatting.

>>33339435
I see nothing wrong with this plan

>>33339431
NO! ONE CAT BAND!

But for seriously, though. I don't want to give the drums to Shiba. I want the drums for us. Drums are cool. They float all behind us in the perfect position for getting played by fluffy tails for the most thundery drum solo ever.

>>33339902
We already have our 3rd release charged, and I don't think we can build up multiple charges.

Now is the time to fight strong things until we expend it.

>>33339354
Can we build up multiple charges on 3rd release?

>>33339354

Do we even know anyone who would make a good candidate for the drums? I can't think of anyone who fits the profile of a lightning god better than Risa.

> [] Go see Monster.

As an ex-soul reaper he probably could tell us a little about shinigami operations, including possible god locations. Setting him on the detail of those corrupted shinigami would probably also be worth doing.

>>33339973

Azure said Risa 3rd release was 75 on the Lucifer scale, right?

NO! We must be cat now!

>>33340151
Darn. I'm guessing that multiple charges will be an eventual 3rd release ability unlock?

>>33340151
Any way we can drop the charge time on the release?

>>33340107

That puts us at 16 XP.

Should we buy Sword and Shield now or save up for Zero or other powers?

>>33340232
We need something more damaging. Stuff has had trouble staying down lately. Thus, Zero.

We need the ability to abomination things.

You tap your finger to your chin and nod solemnly. “I need to get good.” Your English is awful. “Gabe’s deadline is coming up and-“ Stop.

You stop and look up at your brain parts which have betrayed you. Gabe’s deadline is not a he will rofl stomp you deadline. It is more like a lunch date where you will politely turn down his advances, stop being so misleading Ms. Misleading pants. “Fine. But I still want to troll on the internet.” You explain.

You go back into your room and boot up your high speed Windows 98. Honestly you liked 95 better but this was the newest one and you are technically not good with computers so mind your gob. You look over chatrooms and news reposts and leave fake messages about how powdered versions of certain peppers, when placed on genitals, will increase penis size.

You giggle as you get banned from chatroom after chatroom, then leave some questioning posts on a website and go play games. You make car sounds as you kill demons, mostly because you like car sounds and it’s your room so you are allowed to make any noise you want, then go check the messages again. There are two posts which catch your interest.

In Okinawa there are reports of strange Yank military activity. This is odd because it is around the time of some festival where you can party hardy. Of course military might mean Mendel is involved and she is maybe collecting data on you.

Another is in a farming village where a university professor went missing. His students say he was investigating the local myths and legends of the town.

I read last thread after it had already finished when I got home and I just wanted to say that that entire debacle about FB or not and Azzy could have been avoided by just telling us what you were having us roll for. It looked like most everyone on both sides of the argument thought it was "Endure a massive wave of pressure directly to the soul and try to prevent some of the damage". Not a single person said anything that indicated they thought it was a willpower check, which was understandable since it sounded like Azzy was beating the shit out of us and we were trying to literally hold ourself together.

Why didn't you just say "Guys, that is just a willpower check." when asking for rolls? Or at any point before the FB vote? Or even before the session ended? At least that might have stopped the people arguing (ok, they probably would have kept going, but still). Telling the players what they're rolling for is not handholding when it's something where Risa should have been able to tell what she was trying to do, it's disseminating essential info. Risa would have known what it was she was trying to do, so the players should. You always say "roll 1d100 best of 5 for combat" or something similar when we're fighting.

And I saw the thing in meta discussion about how you think that maybe you should just not roll these things from now on or do it behind the scenes. I would advise against that. It was valuable as a gague of Risa's power progression.

We haven't tried to figure anything out yet. We'll get them reigned in.

>>33340434
Thanks for your input; that may have been a better way to handle it. I will keep it in mind when I start calling for rolls for slice of unlifeish stuff again.

So you find keeping the rolls is helpful for checking Risa's power progression. Okay, that is very helpful to know.

Looks like Farming village wins it?

Some people want to consider giving Shiba the drums?

>>33340463
Why do you think 42 would be able to find her.

>>33340566
I'd like to ask Caede about demon nomming, if possible.

>>33340543
>Also, I'm really interested in that devouring shield that was mentioned on the character sheet.
Talked about this a million times. It is zero power increase because the Absolute Rejection+ perk is already a damn good power. Changing it would be an in general weaker mirror that is better against energy spammy enemies that also have reflection on par with/better than ours.

>>33340566

First, Mr. Earth, I want you to know that your writing is delightful. I encourage you to continue it. Adding a "roll x for y" would be helpful to help mitigate future confusion. If we aren't allowed to know what you are rolling for, roll it yourself in secret. Now, as for questy stuff:

>>33340587
I'll support this Anon. Moreover, I think trying to grab more people rather than lest would be prudent granted our present state of affairs. If nothing else, Sin Fin is a must for a tag-along.

>>33340566
>So you find keeping the rolls is helpful for checking Risa's power progression. Okay, that is very helpful to know.
For things like Azzy, yeah. She was in the you-don't-even-get-a-roll-tier before. Now she isn't. That indicates that we're moving up, even if she still vastly outclasses us.

>>33340587
That's what the last chunk of the last thread was.

>>33340667
Nah, that was us asking about attacking Beelz, or leaving the country. And the story on solomon.

Summoning up massive amounts of demons (scrubby or otherwise) to grind on was never brought up.

>>33340661
>If we aren't allowed to know what you are rolling for, roll it yourself in secret. Now, as for questy stuff:
I don't like this completely. If we didn't have Fatebreaker, I would say that this is right, but we have Fatebreaker.

If it's a roll that can be FB'd, then it needs to be visible. Just say that it's a random happenings roll or something or at least give a hint about what it is we're trying to do.

You get some directions to the village and frown as you remember how sticky you got last time you went to find a god. You stretch and start packing your thing before making one final check around the shrine. You go over to where Caede is and as soon as she sees you she backs up so she is against a wall. You tilt your head and wonder why someone so adorable would be fearful of you totally ignoring the fact you tickled her like crazy last time. “Hey Caede? Could you summon demons for me to nom?”

“What? No. The only demons who would answer my summons are either too weak to be of use, since I am still just a knight, or high ranked but are my friends. I don’t like you enough to just give you demons I like.” She answers.

Well, worth a shot you guess.

You go back into the shrine and get a good sniff of the people hanging around. You remember that it has not even really been a day since you did the Squad Zero thing so some of your compatriots may be a little tired. Is that the right word? Compatriots. Jager was still covered in bandaged, with her arm in particular looking none too well. Also she is probably still sort of hurt from getting her armor ripped off of her so that’s a thing. She would still probably go though.

Sin-Fin suffered a psychotic break, but you know she will do anything you say. Her tendons were severed and while they may be patched up crying and going insane would take it out of anyone.

You are still feeling a little sick from the Soul Society thing but you can just bury it under your staggering psychosis. Your plant got it worse than you so you have no idea how they are feeling. Always such a brave lad. Makes you so proud of her.

Ryoko is, well, probably lusting for you terribly but she has regen so that might be fine.

Who do you want to take with you?

[] Write in. ((Have mercy on your QM and don't say everybody))

Also do you want to wait till tomorrow?
Y/N

>>33340715

I don't think that we as players should be able to fatebreak things not directly related to the character. Risa should be (except under exceedingly rare circumstances) aware of what is happening to her, and thus able to respond. If Azure is conflicted and wants to use random probability to decide matters not directly related to Risa, he should roll his own dice to determine those factors and not ask us. Otherwise, you'll get those weird, tense situations.

Overall, Azure hasn't been bad about this from what I have seen.

>>33340828
Make sure to bring a healer
and a towel

>>33340566
I would like to give them to Shiba. Maybe after she figures them out she can teach us how to use them.

>>33340828

> [] Visit with comrades
> [] Take some time to talk to Monster about the corrupted Shinigami
> [] Wait till tomorrow (only if they will be healed by then)
> [] Run recon on the situation with the doctor

Yup.

>>33340828
I'll second >>3334089 I guess. The only other one I would consider is Monster, but I think he deserves a break what with just getting out of pukey murderland.

And wait until tomorrow. Spend the rest of today in the underground training area fucking with the drums. I want to see if we can figure something out. Try hitting them, zapping them, zap hitting them, everything. If we have absolutely no improvement, bring Shiba in to lightly tap them and have Hiroshi monitor in case she explodes. Maybe tap drums in front of her to demonstrate explosion.

Jager's Fraccion, I believe?

Just forget it, was trying to find an uninjured scrub to feed low tier creatures to.

>>33341043
Honestly, I have no idea how she didn't get instakilled by those Nephilim in that fic he wrote. They've gotta be 20s at least. Lupinor is Shinigami Lieutenant level, -maybe- a weak captain. That's, like, 9 at best.

>>33341034
Someone who should never be considered for these "who bring" parts because she's liable to up and die if we unleash full juice power around her while some god is doing the same.

>>33339325

I would have honestly supported the Anon who called for drum practice. Sounds like a funny and appropriate use of 24 hours.

>>33341101
Wait, oh, I'm just an idiot. Thought that she was just an underused character. Forget that shit.

>>33341110
Running like a bitch? We cant really judge Nephilim that well though since we only fought them once.

>>33341225
They posed more challenge than a captain did and we were way stronger for the Nephilim fight than the captain fight.

>>33341040
I'd like to try the drum practice thing if we can. I can just picture someone eventually walking in to say to cut it off with all the banging and then seeing everything stained with gore and just backing out without taking their eyes off us.

>>33341293

Set it up using electric powers and 42 to an ad-hoc guitar hero setup.

If they say they don't want to go, I guess we can always just solo this. Sammiches was pretty tough, twice as bad as most of these pagan gods so far, and we 1v1'd him.

“No, fuck waiting till tomorrow” You say looking at the clock because clocks are cool. “We have to move now right this second.”

You wander back to Caede and explain the situation to her. Finally after you finish explaining your plan Caede crosses her arms. “Fine, but I swear if this is some spunk rape god again I am going to be seriously pissed. You guys smelled like Kouta or Friedhelm a day after watching you get your clothes exploded off.” She explains.

“I hope not. Tell your da to come too.” You command.

You sonido into town and knock on Ryoko’s window. She opens it and smiles wide when she sees it’s you. “Sensei! Wait, let me clean up a bit first. Do you want something to drink?” She asks too happy to see you. Must be a trap.

“No, just picked up traces of a god somewhere out there. Was wondering if you wanted to come since you are terribly useful.” You explain.

“Of course sensei, anything for you. Too bad I can’t list this as extra credit or something for school, or write it as work history. ‘Oh, I see you have gone around killing Japanese gods! We were looking for someone with that sort of job experience for manager of this market!’” She jokes.

“Well, I’m sure I will find some way to reward you.” You explain turning. “A reward which will blow your mind with how hard you’ve been working for me.”

“A, uh. A reward?’ Ryoko asks and you can feel her eyes on you.

“Yeah. Something good. Something really nice.” You reply.

“Something-“ Ryoko pauses and you hear her shewing on her lip as she eyes your back. “Really nice.” She finishes.

“Of course Ri-chan. Hey, hey maybe we should stop somewhere afterwards on a date.” Hiroshi replies getting up.

“Who else is coming?” Shiba asks.

Odd question. “Let’s see, Caede, Fuego, and Ryoko.” You reply.

Shiba scowls. “Don’t you think it’s best if someone stays here? What if they call for a vote or something? Plus Sin-Fin is still probably not feeling too great, don’t you even care about her at all?”

Course we do, we just care about us way more. Also we only care about her in relation to us. “Monologue, we can’t say that.” You explain.

“Anyway, just doesn’t seem the right time is all.” Shiba says.

She is right of course.
"Okay then. stay and howl at Sin Fin's moon. I sat with her the other night and I think more contact with people who care about her will help. Perhaps I'll boop Hiroshi while we're out. Hmm...If I booped monster, he'd be a Shinigami Visored Old One Zanpakuto fusion....I wonder how that'd look"

Alright, fine rescinding >>33341644
The part about the drums.

>>33341656
No she can't. She's not a healer at all. She has basic kido that's maybe enough to stop bleeding, but a full-body 'sploding is above her level.

>>33341670
The pro-humanity guys have 4 total. It's the three we met and then some other guy we didn't meet.

She could heal herself with dragon powers when fighting fenrir. It even said she was just learning how to do it.

Do Shiba and Hiroshi have any incentive to tag along?

Then why didn't she heal her shattered limbs during that fight? She had to be taken to Hiroshi.

“Hold up, you may actually have a point there.” You say tilting your head and looking up. “Yes, you seem to have a point. Alright then, in that case I have a job for you.”

You pat her shoulder and then point towards Sin-Fin’s room. “I need you to go howl at her moon.”

“Another werewolf joke?” Shiba asks annoyed. “You know you’re the only one who thinks that I’m a werewolf right?”

“Look, Sin-Fin is having a fairly bad day. I sat with her a little while, but I think if she got more contact with people who care about her she will do better.” You explain. Or she will get worse and you will come back to a shrine full of people who killed themselves. Either or.

Shiba is crosses her arms and looks to the side, huffing a little. She holds that pose for a moment while she thinks and then glances back at you. “So she needs me huh? I guess, shit. Yeah. Okay, go. I’ll take care of her.”

“Also, here. These drums made me explode when I used them but I thought maybe you could play them. Or they may violently kill you. I’m not too sure which. I need you to figure out a cool divine instrument to use because we are forming a band. Girl bands are pretty bloody ace.” You say handing her the drums.

She looks at you and the drums, then carefully sets them aside. You will need a cool name for your band.

Your monologue worries about the implications of Sin-Fin being taken care of but you ignore the voices in your head which are troubled by this and then leave satisfied. Your group meets up at the foot of your shrine, you making Hiroshi carry you down the stairs because they are all of the awful.

You make your final preparations and make your way to the village. You find it easily enough and note the town seems fairly empty. You smell divine stuff near the top of the mountain and think that maybe this will be easy for once.

You decide to check out around the town, no sense rushing headfirst into some horrible trap. You patrol the streets and see a few more people as you make your way into the residential area. Your group finds nothing particularly odd which troubles you. You pause and take a break on a small bench and you see Caede frown.

“This town is weird.” She explains.

“What? Why do you say that? Looks pretty fine to me.” You reply.

“Really? It looked fine to you?” She asks.

You look around the town and nod. “The people are polite, if a bit distant, the shops are selling at a good price, and the crops seem to be doing really well.” You continue.

“That’s the problem.” Caede says.

“You lost me. Probably because you are too adorable.” You explain.

Fuego nods. “Indeed the daughter of ONE WHO IS THE INFERNO WITHIN THE MIDNIGHT SUN is indeed cuter than anything. However you must FLEX YOUR MANLY ROBUSTNESS TO REPEL HER MOST ADORABLE PARTS AND KEEP YOUR MIND, NAY YOUR VERY SOUL SAFE!” He continues.

“Ri-chan.” Hiroshi says patiently. “There was a year of winter. If there was an eternal freeze then how did their crops get so big?”

“By, er, having the tomboy daughters of farmers working the fields wearing only overalls?” You wonder.

Ryoko looks confused for a moment while staring at you before thinking and smiling a little. Hiroshi smiles. “Or because they have a god protecting them.”

Hm, seems he is getting the crops good.

Very likely. Perhaps sacrifices to increase his power. Before the people realized just how much blood he wanted it was too late.

Shiba was taking care of the weather for all of japan for a small time right?

You go into the town and decide to check it out, uncertain what exactly you are looking for. You find an old woman sipping some ice cold tea of some sort and looking over her crop nodding happily at her progress. You raise your hand in an easy salute and the old woman frowns at you. “Lookit’chu walking ‘round middle of the day wit’ strange men. Ifn’ you were my daughter I’d tan your backside. Getting dat dere purple hair and with a child wanderin round wit'chu.” She explains and you nearly punch her head in right there.

Ryoko puts a hand on your shoulder and you calm down. You get lead away and sit down angrily glaring at the woman. “I should eat her. My hair is natural!” You explain.

“I know sensei. I think it looks really pretty.” Ryoko explains as Caede looks at you.

“Oh knock it off you two.” She commands and you smile at her.

“is Caede jealous? Hey, come let Risa give you a hug. Hey, Ryoko did you know Caede is ticklish? She is really sensitive around her sides and stomach” You say.

“Eh? Like, really? That's super cute.” Ryoko replies slipping into her high school girl dialect

Caede looks at you blankly and then at Ryoko. “Hey. Did you know that she kissed one of the male quincy back at that Mr. Smilie thing?”

“Ah that was just to murder him and to, uh-“ You look back at Ryoko and she looks heartbroken.

“You kissed him? What? Sensei why?’ She asks.

“Like I said I immediately murdered him after.” You reply as Caede gets up and walks away.

“Killing him after or not doesn’t matter! Your lips, he touched my sensei’s lips.” Ryoko mutters looking down at her hands. “Is it because he was a boy? Because I wasn’t born a man my sensei was defiled?”

“Oi, hold on a tick you shagged someone and that didn’t stain you or whatever.” You point out but Ryoko glares.

“Sex and kissing are different! To have my sensei defiled under my watch; while I was injured, this is the greatest shame this Ryoko Watanabe has ever experienced. There has to be some way, to take away the quincy stink.” She says frantically looking down at her hands, then she turns to you. “Sensei! Let me kiss you!”

She leaps for you and on reflex you form a barrier of tails around you and push your feet onto her stomach, keeping her back. “What? No, hold on Ryoko you look scary right now. Oi! Knock it off!” You say, but feel your legs strain as she presses forward with her Berserker strength.

You are laying on the ground fighting her off when Caede comes back. “They don’t know anything about any sacrifice.” She explains eating a popcicle.

You look up at her and frown “Oi, cheeky cunt, where did you get that popcicle from?”

She munches on it idly and points back to the old woman’s house. “The old lady gave it to me.”

Ah, she lost to her adorableness. “So she didn’t know?”

Caede shrugs. “She said it only happened because the farmers worked hard at tending their crops and that young people didn’t know about hard work. Then I told her I was trying to learn to help out around my house and she explained some story about a scarecrow of some kind. I don’t think she was lying. My people are good at finding lies.”

“Buwahaha! You see Risa of the family Schrodinger?! The daughter of one as GREAT AS I! Is able to gather information and even retrieve the bonus item from the dungeon!” he explains pointing out her popcicle.

“Sensei!” Ryoko cries reaching for you but unable to get past your leg defense without breaking them.

I don't know. Maybe the local god forbid people to have children? All we have to go on is a low population. Maybe if we keep hunting down clues around town we will be able to come up with a crafty plan. Risa would like a crafty plan, but she would hate spending a day on it.

You curse Caede and her adorable revenge, but quietly because you don’t know how much dirt she has on you. You roll out of Ryoko’s way and hop back on your feet as she falls. “Calm yourself Ryoko, we came here with a bloody mission!” You explain and she sags a little as she sits up.

“Why sensei? Is it because I’m a girl?” She wonders.

“You were looking a little scary there for a second Ryoko-chan.” Hiroshi explains and you see Ryoko stare at him.

“Did you kiss her?” Ryoko asks.

“Eh?” Hiroshi wonders.

“On your date, did kisses happen between you and my Sensei?” Ryoko demands.

“Hm.” Hiroshi closes one eye and glances at you. You make vague gestures about telling her no but he just smiles then says. “Ah, actually it did. She kissed me too.” It was on the cheek!

“Curse you and your penis!” Ryoko swears slamming her fist into the ground. “Why couldn’t I have been born a boy!?”

You decide you are not qualified to deal with this at the moment. You make your way through the village and find yourself at a small shrine. It is run down, and very rustic, but you smell a god’s demiplane attached to it. You reach your hand out and tentatively touch it, getting a smell of the power radiating inside.

You frown as you realize you could probably get in, but as soon as you do the god will know you are here.

No, we do not tonsil hockey Ryoko juse because she brought up the subject. We need to make it special. How would you feel if your sensei kissed everyone but you, and after you brought it up she kissed you just to placate you?
We are saving it for special times.

>>33343802

Not really sure how I feel about the whole "sensei stalker" thing. I will at least concede that immediate gratification is likely to just end in her feeling empty about getting what she wanted but not in the way she wanted it. Pointing out that Risa wants the kiss with her to actually be special as opposed to just one on a list of countless crazy things we do on impulse would probably be ideal

>>33343843
Unless hes really cool. But I still think child sacrifice involving popsicles is more likely.

Tea cake is more readily associated with tea time than with tea itself. Tea is a British sub-meal time that includes a number of light, delectable foods. In any case, lemonade tends to be the more American compliment, that or coffee.

You signal for your group to get closer and plunge your arm into the vague feeling in front of you. You signal your group to step forward and plunge into the other dimension. Your senses become overloaded for a moment, making you only able to see white, but slowly your eyes adjust and you see you are standing in a field.

The field of rice, wheat, corn, and every other agricultural crop looks like it was once massive, perhaps stretching infinitely in every direction. However, as you walk through it you see that countless pieces of it have been hacked off. You sniff a cob of corn and notice it seems to be filled with divine power. You follow the corn to the center of the field and see a scarecrow tied up. Several small animals cut off pieces of him and warp through portals, likely to different towns around Japan who worship him.

“Hello?” You ask and see the scarecrow’s head twitch up.

“Ri-chan. This god looks like he’s been mutilated.” Hiroshi says.

“Self-mutilation.” The scarecrow corrects. “This land was in danger. The long winter came and the people placed under our protection were starving.” He explains.

“So you just chopped off parts of you and gave it away? Huh, stupid.” Caede shrugs. “The people of this land long since stopped worshiping you and yours. You would have lived much longer if you didn’t remove all your power and give it away freely like that. Didn’t you realize that?”

“Ah, if I only had a brain.” The scarecrow laments. Did he just? He did. “Long ago we were charged with protecting these people with our powers, as limited as they may be. That duty does not end even if they have grown up. It is the joy of a parent to give something of himself away to his children, even if they think they don’t need them.”

“Who are you?” Ryoko asks.

“I was known as Kuebiko. I am a god of agriculture and knowledge.” He replies. “You have come here with purpose. Speak of what you require.”

“Ri-chan.” Hiroshi says. “He doesn’t seem like that bad a guy.”

“Well, I was thinking about eating you depending on how things went.” You explain.

The scarecrow looks up at you and you see old eyes study you for a moment. “Ah, I see. You are one who devours. As weakened as I may be, I will still fight back. It is part of by duty.” He explains and you feel a wind blow through the crops.

“What? Can’t just quit? Get fired maybe?” You wonder.

“In this economy my niche skillset isn’t very marketable.” He replies his voice deep and soothing.

“Huh, so if you are a god of protecting and such then what happened to the university professor?” You wonder.

His big floppy scarecrow hat waft in the breeze as he considers your question. Finally he looks down and says “They were not of my people. The shells were people but not the insides.”

“What do you mean? You, like, aren’t making any sense.” Ryoko growls and you see the scarecrow look over to Caede.

“They were like her inside. Burned and enjoying the scarred agony they were made into infusing them with dark power.” He answers.

You turn to Caede. “The bloody hell strawman talking about?” You wonder.

Caede thinks on it for a second then her eyes go wide “Wait, you mean a possession?”

“Ah, that word. Yes.” He replies. “They were possessed. Very powerful dark things rampaged about their souls. It took much of my power to drive them off or kill them. A very unfortunate event.”

Caede seems flabbergasted so you start ruffling her hair. “Oi, tell me what’s got you knickers in a twist so we can be scared too.”

“It’s just, well. Possessions are really hard to do. The stronger you are the more difficult it is to do. It is an art really, requiring delicate control, a personality which can make you say stop, and way more luck than common sense.” She explains.

“Why? Why is it so super cool?” You request.

In all seriousness, there was the thing with plan Jager Cubed. Though it turned out for the better.
We just shouldn't be bringing people with strong morals on these things.

>>33345027
I don't exactly think Plantman is worth anything now but abilities, though.

Hell, he might be worth as much as Amp, and well, Amp was shit. There's got to be some sort of maximum benefit from him, like getting a map of every single god in Japan and their hidey holes. Or maybe a drive to learn science. Something.

“Normal human bodies can only contain their own soul. The power of even the lowest demon will quickly burn out a human host. There are some who have bloodlines and unique powers which let them be possessed by more powerful things, like that Raven girl, but they are impossibly rare.” Caede explains.

“Okay, so how do they do it?” You wonder.

“Possession, proper possession, requires you to turn yourself into a” Caede narrows her eyes. “A soul cancer I guess. It requires you to go into a soul as a single cell, separate, and acclimate the body to your power. Even then you have to have no wasted energy because a demon’s powers will destroy a living body if there is any back-blast from waste.”

“Back-blast?” You wonder.

“Don’t you pay attention at all?” She demands.

“If it’s not in the pastebin no. Not really.” You reply honestly.

“Okay, when you use your powers you aren’t ever using 100% of the power you put into it. If you fire a cero 90-95% of the energy gets put into the cero, the rest sort of washes back against your body or into the surrounding atmosphere. For most people that is okay because if the energy hits you it is your energy so your body can just absorb it. Energy that goes into the surrounding atmosphere is the same way. Your body knows it is yours and doesn’t freak out because it is like radiating your own body heat.” Caede explains.

“Ah.” Hiroshi says suddenly understanding.

“Right. But if a demon uses his power inside a human, the body will see the demon energy and immediately start to decay and rot. Same thing if it goes into the atmosphere. You can train yourself not to have as much waste, but it is really hard to get it to 100% and even then it will only be 100% for that ability meaning you have to train them all to 100% perfection. As a result it is risky to the person but also the demon. Since you have to become like a cancer cell you are weakened a lot for a while. One quick blast and your demon soul is obliterated.” She finishes.

“If it’s so risky why use it?” You wonder.

“Well, for one as long as you are possessing someone the angels won’t be able to see you as anything other than human. You could walk into a church, torture a priest, rape a saint, and piss in the altar bowl and the angel’s won’t touch you because they would think it is a human matter. Not only that but the demon gets access to all of the information in the human’s mind and any skills they may have. So get inside a computer geek, learn computers, jump into a general, and learn the launch codes to nuclear weapons.” Caede explains.

“That’s. So wait, demons?” You wonder.

“Yeah. Any demon who can be strong enough to fight on par with a pagan deity while also possessing someone and not destroying themselves is pretty amazing.” Caede explains.

“Huh. So know of any gods in the area who are not living up to their contract?” You wonder.

“Well, I wonder.” Mr. Scarecrow sighs. “It very much depends on if you are going to try and kill me or not.”

It's not that...there was a bigger emphasis on plot, Risa was less "lolrandumb" and I felt we had a comfortable power level in the setting (which leads to less HAPBBEENING posts). Characters felt stronger and less "waifuish" and we had concrete goals.

Now, by no means do I dislike the quest as is. I think it's great, it's always been one of my favourites along with Joker (dat setting and system mang) and Aspiring Emperor. I know why AE made it sandbox and I think it's kinda cool that it is but...

I don't know. I just think the story used to have so much structure and we and our allies had a definite place in the setting. Now, how we stand feels arbitrary.

I liked the whole "are you a bad enough hollow to kill the Hollow emperor, kill the Soul King and kill God" feel before the whole scrub shit happened.

He's so busy tearing himself apart that his central concentration of power is likely not very high. He wouldn't make good food, unless we could find a way through eating him to get his sort of regeneration, which seems unlikely. Conversely, he can provide the gift of invaluable knowledge that can make finding other gods much easier. So far, he's already given us valuable information that we didn't have before.

I thought about saying something about a pantheon but a pantheon is pretty much just a specific mythology of gods so it doesn't mean much other than we more or less recognise he exists.

As amusing as it might be, there is no rational being that would join Risas pantheon. Don't bother asking.

though I wouldn't mind eating him if he turns us down

>>33345771
And as no rational being ourselves, we shall ask anyhow.

If we had it your way I bet we would have eaten Jaeger, Esmerellda and Charlotte.

>>33345755

Actually, I just realised

Asking him to join our pantheon is basicly promising not to nom him (can't have a pantheon if you keep eating the other gods after all) so he might well take us up on that

Your odds of survival are directly proportionate to how helpful you are. Helping me can only make them go up.

“You have been useful enough for now. Go ahead, keep cutting chunks off of yourself and let me know if you can find a god who has started dropping his duties.” You say turning to Caede and staring at her intensely.

“Oh? I knew wearing my best floppy straw hat was the best call for today.” He replies.

“It nearly charmed me knickers off it did. So, how about you join a new pantheon? One full of awesome stuff. You seem like an okay bloke.” You explain.

“You are new at this. The people of the land are the ones who decide who is the gods and who are not. In this way are the divine servants of humanity.” He explains a crow thinks about landing in the field, sees him, then books it right the fuck out of there.

“Hm, is that so?” You wonder about that and realize that it is probably correct.

“Why are you staring at me?” Caede wonders.

“You have been giving a lot of fluff lately, I am sort of wondering if you are a plot important NPC or not.” You reply pressing your finger against her forehead. “Give me some direction.”

Caede frowns. “You want demons because they might have stuff you want we should check out that college.” She explains.

Man, she is really useful to have around.

“So, come on. Let’s be friends! We can be awesome together and, well, while I may not be directly trying to protect humanity per say I am trying to violently murder and eat the people who are trying to destroy them.” You explain.

The scarecrow thinks on it for a moment. “Very well.” He replies.

nah, (did we split charlotte or did it all go to Jager?)

I did vote to keep the plant (we didn't even try to name at the time) for emergency ration before she grew on me.

Jager was a badass that picked fights with shinigami
Charlotte was organized and La resistance all set up.
and the plant died from anon being retarded and bad roll.

but don't let that stop you from calling me an edgelord or something because I leave eating blokes on the table even if they're not worse then Hitler.

still can't believe there were actual votes to let the Raijin go

A stalk of corn bends his way and he plucks out a kernel. “Here. Plant this at your base and we will be able to discuss things without you having to come all the way here.” He explains.

“You don’t like me?” You ask.

“An old man like me has a hard time keeping up with such young people.” He says in response.

You leave through the doorway into the world of the living and sigh. Hiroshi pats your shoulder and smiles. “Ah, that was quite mature of you Ri-chan.”

“Well, I am a big person I guess.” You say, not totally sure which way your schizophrenia will take you in on any particular day.

Your group sonidos back to the shrine and you realize it is getting later in the day. Your group splits to their various placing of living. You put the corn kernel in the ground and water it, then go back inside the shrine. You see Shiba nursing a glass of alcohol. “What’s this Shiba? Rejected?” You wonder.

“H-hey Risa.” She says giving you a strained smile. “How was that god thing?”

“Oh you know, same old same old.” You explain tilting your head. “You seem a bit funny.”

“Me? Funny?” She panics. “No! No, totally normal. It’s not like I said anything which, you know, would change anything. Or anything really important to Sin-Fin.”

“Ha ha, yeah it’s not like you said anything important to her.” You say smiling easily.

“Right! Exactly! Sometimes stuff just happens.” Shiba agrees.

“Nothing that would make me upset in the slightest, right?” You say.

“R-Right.” Shiba agrees.

“Or the voices in my head which ship me and Sin-Fin.” You continue smiling.

“Ship?” Shiba wonders.

In a flash you are on her. You pounce her and slam her bodily to the floor pinning her there by the shoulders. “Not like you would so anything which would make my Monologue cry right?” I am feeling a bit misty. “Not like you would do something to my things which would make them unhappy right?!” You ask as your mouth splits down your chin.

Shiba’s eyes go wide as your mouth splits and small tentacles tipped in some form of bone shoot out. She moves her head and you pierce the wood floor, then retracts and send them out again and again. “My things! Mine! Hurting it is a no no!” You say shapeshifting the face of someone you killed into your throat as you try to grab her.

“Hey! Knock it off!” Shiba says grabbing your tongues and holding them.

You shapeshift razor like edges along them and see her wince then hear her snarl. You feel a massive bolt of electricity shoot out of her and slam you back into the wall. You lean forward and your skin and muscles start boiling as your body beings to break apart into some form of abomination. “You hurt her. You hurt our Sin-Fin.” The words ‘Our Sin-Fin’ become echoed by the fang filled mouths lining your body. “We can’t let her get hurt for she is our Sin-Fin.” Once again ‘Our Sin-Fin’ is echoed by many mouths.

“I didn’t hurt her.” Shiba protests but you point a long crooked finger at her, your nails growing into hard claws.

“Liar. You drink the drink all sad and mopey. Tell us what you did. Tell us so we can punish you.”: You say as your tongues fall out of your mouth and drag on the floor.

Shiba pulls out some jewels, looks back at her drink, closes her eyes and stomps her foot. “I told her I’m in love with her!” She shouts.

You stare at her, your seven eyes blinking in rapid succession. You tilt your head and suddenly realizing something start venting wrath once more, your arms splitting like poisonous flowers. “You forced her. You commanded her!” You say.

“I got rejected you miserable fuck!” Shiba snarls kicking over a chair.

You blink confused as your body starts to morph back. “Sorry, one more time. This time with context.”

“I, okay look. I was helping her like you said. She was feeling a little better and she asked why I was doing all of that stuff for her.” She grabs her bottle and pours herself another glass.

You scoot over to her and slowly morph back to Risa prime. “Right. And you said you loved her?”

“Not like that! I said I cared for her and she didn’t understand. She said lots of people care for her but they don’t so as much as I do and wanted to know why.” Shiba explains. “And it- she just kept asking. I thought if I kept it all bottled up then it would be bad. I’m not good at indirect and stuff, so I just wanted to let her know. I just had to say it and get it over with. No commands, no pressure. I just said ‘Well, that’s because I’m in love with you.’”
