>Welcome to Avatar Quest. Here are the rules.

Decisions are made by vote. Each vote has a ten minute interval, after which, the option that receives the most votes it the one that is chosen.

There are no write-ins unless explicitly stated

Some options require rolls. In that event, rolls will be out of 100. Whether rolls succeed or fail is decided by the first three rolls. If one passes, then you succeed regardless of the other two. Rolls will really only occur during training, or when trying something new.
All decisions are final. If you regret voting for something, too bad. Think carefully before you make decisions.

Try to keep waifu bullshit to a minimum.

"Let's get you a room, then," you tell her. "I'll deflect if the Queen asks any questions about why we're not sharing a room. I won't even need to lie, I'll just say that your family would probably kill me if I made a move like that. Scratch that, DEFINITELY kill me."

Her cheeks color a bit. "Not if I killed you first."

She rises to her feet. "I'm going to go have a message sent to them, then ask about a room. Sleep well, Shin."

>>33967894
>D. Find Lathic

He won't kill us himself in the queen's palace. Since we put him under scrutiny, he would become the prime suspect.

If he's with us, he's not killing the Queen.

>>33967953
>implying the guard isn't the assassin

>>33968035
Look what you have done to us, Som. We can't even trust an NPC you haven't even named yet.

Seriously though, if there was an assassin in place to remove the queen, it'd have happened already. All it takes is one loyal guard alerting her and she can bend her way out of the situation.

>>33968061
>What is a sleeper agent

>>33968087
Guys. He hasn't even mentioned a guard yet.

I highly doubt one random guard is going to be a sleeper agent. Maybe one of those assigned to her will be, but not the first one we see.

>>33968035
>>33968061
>>33968087

Ahhh, now THIS is a Som quest. The first decision is a pit of paranoia and shitstorming to put /pol/ to shame.

Smells like victory.

>>33968027
>>33967976
As Felna goes off to handle her business, you decide that you don't feel like waiting for the Queen to return. Instead, you wish to go find Lathic and speak with him.

Rising from your seat, you make your way to the door through which Felna had disappeared moments ago and walks down the hallway to the stairs. Travelling down to the first floor, you walk outside and around to the back of the palace, where many of the guards are still training. You pass them without giving them much attention, figuring you'll find Lathic in his usual spot.

And, that is exactly where you find him, sitting atop his rock, legs crossed, hands on his knees, and his eyes closed. Either he's mediating, or sleeping.

"Are you awake?" you ask.

"I'm curious," he replies. "Had I simply not answered, would you have continued to ask under the assumption that I didn't hear you, or understand that my lack of response would mean "no"? Oh well, not important. What is it that you wish, Avatar Shin?"

I say >B. because at least then we can keep an eye on him.

>>33968408
>>B. Ask him to train you in Airbending
Need to learn some basics of air bending

You know, the other day I asked Som if Shin actually has a chance with the Queen. He said yes. I think we all know what we must do.

>>33968462
But if he is the traitor then he already knows
>>33968502
It shall happen

>>33968514
He may not know that Felna's here, however. Telling him will only lead to assassins around her.

If we solo'd the group he sent, he might deem us too great a risk NOT to remove. And if we didn't we had help. Our help would be offed.

That works too. Just saying we should get started. We've already started on Galda and Felna after all.

"I was hoping that you would train me in Airbending," you tell him. "Things are moving quickly, and I would like to at least learn the basics before the chance to do so is gone."

You stand your ground, not attacking, not bothering to dodge just standing solidly.

This turns out to be a bad idea, as Lathic thrusts his hand towards you, throwing you backward with a strong gust of wing and causing you to land painfully on your back. Lathic slowly and calmly walks over to you, looking down at you with a mixture of amusement and confusion.

"Is there any particular reason why you didn't dodge my attack?" he asks. "Is you default response to an attack you stand completely still and hope you can take the hit?"

>A. Yes

>B. No

>>33969084
>>33969122
>>33969123
This, but don't attack

If >>33969099 then also add on that since we could not bend air in battle, that we had lost already.

Do some of you really not get that he's doing the whole "training via combat" thing? He's not trying to attack us.

>>33969157
This, blender mix everything

>>33969179
I get it, I just like being an idiot towards mister monk here

>>33969157
I can dig this.

why are we being an asshole we should just be like

"oh this was a dodging exercise, now I know."

>>33969204
I can support that. I voted C after all. It was more toward the people who want to full on fight and insult the guy.

Am I the only one that finds it weird that of the 4 airbenders we've met, all 4 have been very violent and aggressive, and not at all like airbenders?

The first two tried to kill us and were bandits and tried to kill us. The third was pretending to be one of the Queen's men and tried to kill us. And now this guy just attacked us instead of actually attempting to teach us anything.

>>33969099
that's pretty stupid reasoning.

>>33969278
Theres a reason they all died later in history

>>33969323

"I don't respond to danger like a normal person," you tell him as you rise to your feet. "And when I spar with others for training purposes, I limit myself to the bending that I am trying to train. However, as it is, I don't know how to Airbend. I also trust those who fight me to make it clear that they are going to fight. You, however, attacked me without warning under the pretext of training. So, can you teach me how to Airbend yet?"

Lathic throws back his head and laughs. "Your actions in response to mine, your stubbornness and aggression in regards to being caught off guard, and your pride attempting to justify it, no wonder you haven't figured out Airbending yet."

This. Let's face it, it's what happened.

He caught us off guard and we had no clue what to do, and we got knocked back.

>>33969459
Don't see much point continuing the argument, he's just going to throw the same stubborn words back at us.
So seconding this.

>>33969507
>>33969434
This. No use in antagonizing him.

>>33969434
Then show me. If earth is stubborn, fire passionate, and water flexible then air is something I've never considered.

Maybe but if you are air then I am earth. I expected difficulty.

In response, you just shrug.

Lathic shakes his head. "Shin, each element has particular traits to it. Earth is solid and unmoving, stubborn, but strong. Fire is consuming, potent, dangerous, and powerful. Water is changing, adaptable, in many forms, flowing, and sometimes treacherous."

He chuckles. "You certainly have strength and potency, but also stubbornness, and you are rather dangerous. And you seem to suspect treacherousness everywhere. As for air, it is an element of change, like water. It can come in the form of a gentle breeze, or a devastating hurricane. I would call it the opposite of Earth. Where Earth is rooted in one place, stubborn and stuck, air is always moving, changing, free. If you wish to understand Airbending, you can't think approach is like you do Earthbending or Firebending, understand?"

He brings his fist back once again.

You dodge this time, leaping to the left as he thrusts his fist forward, his gust of wind going right past you, not affecting you at all.

"Very good," he compliments. "Now, keep it up."

He thrusts his fist towards you again, and you dodge the gust of wind once more, then he thrusts with his other fist, and you are forced to dodge once again, and again, and again.

He changes things up a bit, swinging his arms outward in an arc, and creating an arc of wind to match it, causing you to have to duck rather than move left or right.

"Very, very good," he tells you. "Now, are you ready to try to Airbend?"

Hey, do you think this mindset thing is why the firebending DC kept going up that one time? Or maybe that was just exhaustion setting in.

>>33970734
Wouldn't aggressively trying to fire bend make it easier?

So gentlemen, should we be the first to figure out lava bending, ice bending, or lightning? I vote anything besides the last one cause I don't think Shin has the right mindset for that

>>33970734
exhaustion affects fire the most. You need a bonfire to kill someone easily, not a bed of coals

>>33970793
Ice. Ice is an essential component of the waterbending skill set. The others are advanced moves with situational uses, but ice is always relevant to a waterbender.

"Not yet," you tell him. "Really, I don't get the point of this. I dodge plenty, that thing earlier was just me being petty. Do you have any other ideas on how to teach me to think like the air?"

He chuckles. "Does the air think? I was not aware of that. Honestly, were you to try right now, I sincerely doubt that you would succeed. I do not believe that you are yet ready to learn Airbending. It is the virtual opposite of your personality. Practice, say, Waterbending for a while; it's a good transition in the direction you need to go."

You approach one of the guards and ask them to bend at you while you dodge. They seem a bit confused by this request, but they agree to help.

You put some distance between you and the man, who beings shooting fire blasts at you. This is definitely good encouragement to not mess around, and for the next several minutes, you dodge a variety of his attacks, tiring yourself out a bit in the process.

The man tells you that he needs to return to his post and walks off.

Having had enough of training for tonight, you figure that you should probably go back to the throne room and speak with the Queen. Leaving the few remaining guards in the training area, you make your way around the palace.

You notice something a bit odd as you approach the front entrance; there no guards at the gate.

You run into the palace and take a look around.

It's fairly obvious that there was a fight in the first room, as two guards lay dead on opposite sides, and there are scorch marks on the wall. Upon closer examination, you find that one guard was stabbed in the heart, while the other had his throat slit.

You run for the stairs and climb them as quickly as you possibly can, reaching the second floor and heading up to the third, coming to the long, empty hallway leading to the throne room.

Dashing down the hall, you push through the doors and bolt into the throne room, startling the Queen, who rises from her throne and pulls her right hand back before realizing who it is.

"Shin?" she asks. "I'd thought you'd retired for the evening. What is it that you need? I imagine it must be of some import given the rather loud and dramatic entrance."

"Two of your guards were slain!" you inform her. "I thought someone was trying to kill you."

"Nobody has yet," she answers, rising from her throne and clenching her fists. "But if someone is in my palace killing my people, I am going to introduce them to a whole new world of pain."

She quickly strides across the room and pushes past you, running down the hallway. Of course, you decide to follow her, catching up with her as she makes her way down the first flight of stairs.

From the second floor, you can see two figures making their way swiftly out of the palace. The Queen begins to move down the stairs after them.

You figure that the best method of stopping them is to open a pit beneath them. But, given that you're on a wooden staircase, you have to wait until you reach the first floor to do so.

When you reach the bottom of the stairs, the two have already made it outside, forcing you to follow them out of the palace before you can do anything. You step outside and attempt to open a pit, but they are simply too far away and moving too fast for you to make one beneath them. Improvising a bit, you create a pit right in front of the two, but they react incredibly quickly and leap right over it.

The Queen, meanwhile, is ahead of you, and brings both of her fists back before thrusting them towards the retreating figures. A massive jet of blue fire pours from her fists and rapidly moves towards the two, who split up and move to avoid it before rejoining one another at the gate once it evaporates.

After a moment, the pair pass through the gate and out into the city.

Theory: Galda saw Felna come in with us, had a fit of stupidity, killed guards and scared the shit outta Felna (hence the scorch marks), and now broke her out.

Suggestion: Next time we see Galda, break her thumbs. She just killed two people, took two LIVES, because she felt like it. Noone who can murder an innocent man so casually...she should be executed, but taking her ability to hold a weapon should keep Felna from getting too pissed at us.

>>33973395

Let's not break people's thumbs because you think they might have killed someone.

>>33973395

"We have to stop," you tell the Queen. "There could be more out there."

She turns to you, grinding her teeth, a look of pure outrage marring her beautiful face.

"Get your most trusted men together, I need to check something," you conclude.

"Be careful," she warns before turning back towards the gate and taking a deep breath.

With a loud roar (or as close to a roar as she can produce) a massive jet of flame (normal colored this time) gushes from her mouth and ascends high into the air, illuminating the sky all around you. It doesn't take long for half a dozen guards to come running.

"We've had intruders in the palace," Alara tells them. "At least two guards are dead, and, judging by how quickly the intruders got through the gate, two others better be as well. We are going to search the palace, as a group since these two seem perfectly capable of killing even benders of your caliber."

inb4 B actually means to go with all the guards to Felna's room. Also now I'm pretty convinced it was Galda trying to save Felna and she thinks we turned her in, but I'm a pessimist.

After asking the Queen where Felna (whom you still take care to refer to as Kurna) is staying, you rush into the palace and climb to the second floor.

Locating the room Felna was given for the night, you open the door and find it empty. There are no signs of a struggle, in fact, other than the covers having been moved, there are no signs that anyone was even using this room.

You run to find the Queen and her guards, who are currently examining the scene on the first floor. The Queen looks at you as you descend the stairs and approach.

"Did you check what you needed to?" she asks.

>D. "Yes. This has got to be the BIGGEST misunderstanding ever...you see, Kurna's brother wasn't exactly happy with the no-bender policies before I left. Apparently, he's been going to the rallies...and if he saw his sister come into the palace, he might have assumed she was...well, prisoner. And foolishly decided to 'liberate' her."

"I want to believe this is all a big misunderstanding. I want to trust them, trust her but I feel as though that decision has been made for me already. Come, the only way we'll both have our answers is to find them before they do something they'll regret furthur"

>>33974443
You've got a point, can I retract that last sentence?

>>33974443
but it does mean that it was likely Galda and she went with her without any word.

>>33974337

and none of this crap about not trusting her. WE still have no reason to distrust her

>>33974443
If she's Innocent her behaviour is highly erratic.

>>33974337
>A. Come clean about everything
Do not throw Felna under the bus. We don't know her situation at this time after all

>>33974493

While I doubt it is Galda either, she is much more likely.

>>33974443
we know Ren and Galda came with her, we know Ren is working against the Queen, we can guess it was Galda who back stabbed the guards, and Felna wouldn't just disappear with an intruder unless it was Ren or Galda. if she isn't too blame she NEEDS to explain this shit cause its not helping her family's case

I think we can all agree, the best part of A is that the Queen will know we're single

Can someone reminds me why we even brought Felna to the castle anyway?

>>33974584
Your waifu a shit, Shark Turtle for life

>>33974576

no we SUSPECT him of it

>>33974600
She saved us from the attack and we were worried she'd get attacked out on the street.

>>33974576

While that may be partially true, we shouldn't throw her under the bus until she has had time to explain.

>>33974619
Felna told us he's worked with the group before, even said the leader's name was familiar to her. if he's not then he needs to stop shadowgaming with Gadla and Felna before they all get over their heads

You proceed to explain everything to the Queen; that Kurna was really Felna, her own niece. You tell her about pretty all of your experience with her family in regards to this situation; their feelings towards her, their reactions to what was done to Galda, Galda's attitudes towards Benders, Felna's fear of her, that Ren may have been attending rallies, that Ren and Galda are also in the city.

The Queen listens, her expression growing more and more stony the more you say. When you finally finish, she speaks up.

"This is not good, Shin," she tells you. "I am disturbed that you would keep this from me."

Before you can protest, she raises a hand to silence you. "I can understand you not telling me that Ren, Galda, and Felna were in the city; they have just as much right to be here as anyone else. I can understand you not telling me Ren attended rallies; my goal has been to avoid conflict with that group, not eliminate it. I can understand you not telling me Felna was a Firebender; I can see why should would fear me knowing. But to bring my niece into my palace, my home, and not even tell me it was her, that is not simply omission of details; you gave me a fake identity for her, and now she vanishes, and this happens!"

She takes a moment to compose herself. "No, this situation is not good at all, Shin."

Can you see it actually happening?

Yes but as far as we [shin] knows he is a supporter of the Non-Bender Alliance not a collaborator of the coup, that said our pool of suspects is shrinking rapidly so its going to come to a head sooner or later.

>>33974709
Thanks for running Som

1. shit getting real next time y/n?
2. would it be possible for Shin to want but not have Polygamous relationships with Galda & Felna on account of their feelings, because you know shifting character dynamics and what not?
3. how long have you planned this quest to run for?

>>33974798
What was with the airbending shit? I really don't get it.

Not only did he attack us out of nowhere with little explanation, but suddenly when we don't think we're good enough we have to go and leave?

>>33974709

Yeah, but this is a situation you sort of fucked up yourself. She just asked you to visit a rally and tell her what you heard. You chose to speak up and confront the leader at that rally, making yourself a target. You chose to bring Felna into the palace. This stuff is on your head.


>Any more questions?

>>33974798
>>Any more questions?
not really a question Som, but I'll be honest. This shit is infuriating. Every good choice we try to make turns bad, and every bad choice gets worse. Granted this is still at least 100x better then the last Avatar quest but god damn it I've never wanted to say (IC) "Fuck this, I'm leaving" so badly. Still enjoying myself besides all that crap so looking forward to next time

>>33974951
Well, that's partially the player's fault for making some poor choices, but you also have to keep in mind that you have people working against you, trying to make things go badly for you. You have to push through and outdo them.

>>33974901
when can we just leave, pick up our Shark Turtle, and have adventures like a real Avatar?

I get the feeling that a lot of the 9 options we usually get a land mines and it makes me uncomfortable.
