You are Kagome Higurashi, an average teenage girl from Tokyo. Well at least you WERE average. After a series of strange and unfortunate events you find yourself in a strange place with even stranger people.

You, Yura, and Inuyasha escorted Kujo Keisuke to his destination, only to find the village in ruins and Keisuke’s son dead. You were not alone in the village for long however. A man by the name of Lord Kagewaki Hitomi was present in the village along with his retainer and after a brief conversation the dead began transforming and coming to life. Realizing you were far outnumbered, Hitomi and your teams have holed up in a Buddhist temple from the onslaught of mutilated walking corpses, the sky darkens to ash as the monsters turn on each other deflating into clouds of black...

All around you the sound of creaking wood echoes, then, sudden defining buzzing.

A massive cloud forms in front of the Buddha statue, before “exploding” and dispersing far smaller. Illuminated by the burning monster corpse is a man in writhing black armor and a flowing hooded cape. A book lays chained to his hip, a large broadsword on the other. A tarnished golden crown adorns his head and a stark white ivory mask covers his face, devoid of any markings. He holds his arms out and in broken Japanese proclaims:

”Welcome to Death”

Kagome; assess the situation.

Heeeey Snow. Hope you are feeling a bit better?

>Have Yura use some Fire/Hair to distract/wrap him up. Hopefully we can by time to at least gayge his skill.

Hopefully Not!Yura is ready to throw down.
>>
>>33993656
I'm going to assume guys who say "Welcome to Death" aren't trying to open for negotiation, but then again he doesn't speak Japanese well. Maybe it's all a misunderstanding!

>>33993728
Naw what he said. If he's made of bugs, fire is his enemy!
>>
>Command Inuyasha to Attack
Heavy hitters in first see how well he dose be ready too jump in as oppertunity presents its self Yura start laying down some trip hair too slow him down

Also is it wrong that the when i read Welcome too death i heard this playing in my head?

I hope so i want this daemon too put up a fight
>>
not sure if Yura is dead or just going to be seriously maimed
>>
>>33994471
she can't die we have her phylactery it might put her out of the fight tho
>>
>>33994471
Neither. Her 'body' is just an avatar.
As long as the comb/skull stays intact, she's fine.
>>
>>33994574
so question unrelated too this fight is there anyway too unkey that collar we got for Inuyasha or at least a way too remove them once its put on him?
>>
>>33994653
AFAIK, not without destroying the collar.
And even that much wouldn't be easy. Not sure how we'd do it.

...I oughta get round to watching the Final Act at some point.
>>
Your mind goes blank as you take stock of the new situation in front of you; and your mouth seems to think for you.
“YURA! DO THE FIRE THING!” you bark.

If there’s one thing you hate more than anything, it’s bugs. And if there’s one thing bugs hate more than your brothers game manuals and comics, it’s fire.

Yura yanks her comb from between her cleavage and waves it in front of her, no doubt laying a trap. The armored man has since lowered his arms and seems to be staring at her although you can’t really see anything more than your feint reflection in the pristine polished white surface.

Yura begins to open her mouth and the ebony mass simply raises an arm. A cascading black mass surges forward before returning to the man, leaving Yura thrashing on the floor in tears choking and clutching her throat.

One of Lord Hitomi's men begins feverishly reciting a Buddhist prayer, sweat visibly rolling from his face in the darkened room.

“GENOG!” it bellows in a guttural roar. Reaching behind it without looking, it swiftly rips off the head of the stone Buddha statue and hurls it at the soldier, impacting with a sickening crunch.

>Sick em’ (Inuyasha attacks)

Eh Plan B then since running just means this things going follow us or leave Hitomi behind
>>
>>33994754
We might want too just destroy that thing when we have the chance then if anyone other then us puts it on him we got a vary big problom

>You currently have 3 points. Would you like to challenge fate?


Kagome can store up to 4 points (Fate Challenges) and can use them in the following ways ("I challenge fate"):

> Remove a dice in your rolled dice pool
(voted for after all die have been rolled)

> Add a +3 modifier to ANY roll
(voted for after all die have been rolled, only valid for current rolls, not ones earlier in the current or previous quests)

> Instantly refill your Energy
(explained in the Energy section above)
>>
Rolled 15

>>33995385
>>
>>33995505

If we can keep the 15 from >>33995525

I think I might vote for removing the 1.
>>
>>33995505
> Remove a dice in your rolled dice pool
Bye bye 1.
>>
>>33995505
I think we should burn at least 1 to remove the 1, a second as well, if we want to pass this.
>>
>>33995334
Yeah that's great.

>>33995505
Gotta remove the one. I don't want to watch Inuyasha get devoured by bugs.
>>
>>33995505
eh lets remove that one i am ok with failing but not too that extent
>>
>>33995571
Right, if my roll counts, we could just emove the 1. Snow?
>>
>>33995525
>Popular opinion seems to burn one point to yield the following result: 11 vs 15 (failure)
>Sound right?
>>
>>33995660
yup sounds about right
>>
>>33995660
Since burning a second one won't even give a success, I vote yes. Just lose the critfail.
>>
>>33995660
sounds good. Minor failure's fine, but a crit fail this early is probably a bad thing
>>
>Point burned
>2 Fate Challenges remain

>Writing
>>
>>33995660
Yep, that would be our best bet, then. A bit to slow on my roll~
>>
>>33995753
just wondering, did we get any more fate challenges at the start of this thread or was that a one-time thing?
>>
>>33995827
>http://pastebin.com/qtZXHCMZ
We get 1d3 Fate Points every three threads. This is the first since our first roll, so in two more we get 1d3.

It's in the pastebin rules, if you got any other questions.
>>
>>33995912
ah, cool
thanks anon

You stare wide eyed at Yura. A chuckle breaks the ambient buzzing as Inuyasha steps forward, covered in blisters with a sneer on his face, his thumb just under his katanas guard, ready to draw. He nods at you as he passes.

You fall to your knees and scramble over to Yura to help. Upon nearing her, you notice a writhing black mass in her wide open mouth. Her throat contorts and deforms. Flies. The bastard is suffocating her with living flies.

“Ok, ya got my attention ugly, but seen’ as how I’m the best there is I’ll just get ta kicken yer ass and bein’ on my way.”

You feel acid in the back of your own throat and you exhale onto the floor before regaining your composure. You have no idea how to help her… Can a hair monster even suffocate? You begin beating on her stomach over and over as her eyes roll into the back of her head.

There is a pause before the black knight begins shifting up and down as it leans back, uttering a low rasping laugh.

“þu you íewest Naraku and ic may spare you peasant.”

“I got no idea what ya just said, but it don’t mater ta me!” Inuyasha charges forward, drawing his blade. The creature doesn’t move. Inuyasha leaps to the air, however his opponent reacts with a sweeping backhand, sending the white haired demon flying into the door. Inuyasha kneels and spits before rushing in again, preparing for a horizontal strike, however steel meets steel as the entity draws its broad sword in a flash. Black and serrated with strange blue runes covering its length. As the two clash a sphear of black energy emits from the blade, expanding and pushing you, Inuyasha, and the rest of you to the walls.

The shockwave seems to have shaken something loose and Yura vomits forth the black mass.

Lord Hitomi Looks down at the semiconscious Yura, then to his men and their attacked. “Kagura. Get the door.”

His advisor reaches inside of her kimono and produces a paper fan. She turns and extends her arm, as she waves it, the back of the temple and much of the nearby rubble is sent flying. Black ichor begins falling from the sky as the man in black begins walking forward, reaching for the tomb on his belt.

Yura’s not moving, Inuyasha’s too damn stubborn to use his head, and Keisuke’s just worthless at everything. Also you really don't want to see what the deal is with that black rain.

You desperately want to run, but you know that you’ll never make it.

Standing up, you feel for your naginata and grasp it firmly in your hand. You stare down your attacker. You have no idea what it is, where it came from, or what it wants, but you don’t care. You have one objective. Survive.

You see a flash of red to your left and you know that’s your opening. You’ll never be able to match his speed, but…

You sprint, leading with the non-edged end of your Naginata. Slowly curving in an arc from the right you make good use of the buildings pillars and benches to cover your approach.

In the distance you see that Inuyasha finally makes contact again, however the ivory masked creature deflects his attack and sends him flying back; grinding and crashing into debris. This is your chance. You make a b-line for the creature as it begins thumbing through its grimoire.

Sprinting up some downed scaffolding as a makeshift ramp, you launch yourself into the air, lifting your naginata above your head and bringing it down along with the weight of your small body and momentum down onto the creatures wrist, severing the solid yet writhing appendage.

The book falls to the ashen floor with a loud thud and the crowned specter lets something between a sigh and a scream emit from its core. You can feel feint whispers in the back of your mind its ivory mask turns to reveal you in its reflection.

Seconding this.
>>
>>33998443
I say either;
>Stab mask with Naginata, maybe that is it's phylactery like Yura,

or

>Kaze no Bon both of them, to be safe.

I fall back on Fable 1 logic, and assume this is Jack of Blades.
>>
>>33998606
I meant to say stab the BOOK*
>>
>>33998625
that books not is Phylactery notice how it says that it let out a scream from its core whatever his Phylactery it is there that books just holds his spells
>>
>>33998443
Stab the Book and fling it away from IT.

Stabby stabby stab stab~

Why the hell do we want too stab it who knows what we can learn from that thing once this is over

That sentence implies we won't end up dying or need to smash the book if he retakes it.

Trait: Overwhelming Strength lets 1 damage slide through on a successful dodge or block

Looking up into the sterling while featureless mask, your hand hunts blindly for the book. Grasping it, you heave the heavy tomb behind you. A loud gruntlets you know you’ve hit someone with the thing.

A sudden impact in your gut lifts you off your feel and into the black rain, leaving you gasping for air. The swordsmen rights his weapon again after having checked you with the hilt and begins marching forward again at a quickened pace, his cape fluttering in the wind. The sound of buzzing seems to grow.

“Return. Mine. Scroll.” It hisses; the blue runes o its blade begin crackling.

I beg you reconsider there is nothing wrong with Necromancy if we use it for good we are working daemons and yet you guys are preaching how pure we are how is working with the Daemons less evil then fixing the fallen dead?

At least thumb through the book it might not be on Necromancy sure the guy is a walking pile of maggots so it might be on controlling insects or something
>>
>>34000231
We should also consider the fact tat doing evil/demonic stuff is a lot harder to explain then knowing a half-demon, and owning a full one. Right now we can just be a naive girl, but with necromancy? We're basically Tsubaki.

There will be no corpse puppets - that's Yura's schtick, stealing it'd be rude.
No becoming a skeleton. We'd never get laid.
And certainly no face meltings.
Not unless we decide to teach feudal Japan the wonders of heavy metal a few centuries early. Then you can go nuts.

You hear rubble shift in the distance and looking over your shoulder you see Inuyasha, panting and kneeling, using his katana to brace himself up. His red coat has since been blown off and hands on a nearby post, flapping in the wind.

The super natural black rain begins to fall quicker and heavier. You can feel its weight pushing you down, but you resist and stand. Determined not to back down.

“What does it say?!” You yell.

“I don’t know! I can’t read!” Kujo responds “I don’t think I’ve ever even seen markings like these!”

“Just burn it!” you command.

Lord Hitomi along with his advisor and entourage seem to be keeping out of the way which is kind of annoying since that woman seems to have a strong attack…

You refocus on the fly king or whatever he wants to call himself. Steam rises from his ebony blade as he brings it up and grips it with his now reformed hand. Blue energy sparks from the runes as he swings the blade, a large crescent ark of crackling black energy erupts from it and careens toward you.

You dive to the floor and it crashes into the dilapidated home Inuyasha was rising from moments ago.

“INUYASHA!”

The creature lets out a low guttural laugh again; pleased with its work and most likely thinking it just took out your heavy hitter.

“The books… just kind of bubbling… Oh; no there it goes.”

You grit your teeth as you feel rage wash over you. This thing, whatever it was, is so determined to kill you and acts as though you’re a minor annoyance. You stand up, muddy and determined you slowly walk toward the entity. You’re so sick of being average. A face in the crowd. You’re not going to be another casualty. Not today.

“Hey!” You spin your naginata and plant its blade in the ground before taking a few more steps toward it. You pull your arm back and throw yourself at it. Your fist connects with the ivory mask, surprising it and causing it to stumble backwards. Another step. You thrust again. He spins and stumbles on his heel; the mask giving in a little. You thrust again and he’s off his feet and on his ass in the mud.

”Leave my dog alone.”

Reaching behind you, you pluck your naginata from the ground and cleave upwards through what would be his ribcage up to his shoulder.

It makes no sound other than a low drawn out hiss, but it bobs up and down as if out of breath and it quickly finds itself hurtling through the air before crashing against the side of a stone wall with a sickening splat before bursting into a swarm of flies and reforming standing atop the shrine again, a little less bulky than before. It’s cape still billowing in the wind and a small crack on its ivory “face”. Its arms crossed.

Looking over you notice Kagura approaching you, fan out as she adjusts her glasses.

”Strike him down.”

You close your eyes and breath deep; calming yourself. Everything is going to be fine. He’s on the run.

The air around you seems colder somehow. You feel the feint touch of another hand on yours, it guides your motions.

You feel your front leg sweeping our and your waist turning; almost as if you’re holding your pole weapon in a deep crouching batters position. You slowly open your eyes. The black ichor that once fell from the heavens has been replaced by pristine white snowflakes. Your breath is heavy in the air and you tighten your grip.

”What is this child?”

“Kaze no Bon. Dance of the North.”
“Kaze no Bon. Dance of the North.”

You swing your naginata as hard as you can, your momentum carying your outstretched foot with you. A jet of frost errupts from your blade striking the Lord of Flies. His movement slows to a halt. A mimed expression of surprise is forever fixed to the once writhing black mass. Your spin ends in a perfect circle, with your naginata resting above your head and arms in a defensive position.

A second powerful wave errupts from behind you, shattering the sculpture and scattering him to the winds.

Standing up you exhale again. The rain has stopped and the clouds have began to depart. You feel more relaxed now than you have ever felt in your entire life.

Turning around you someone shufting under the ruins of a delapitated house, the suns fingers poke through the clouds as Lord Hitomi approaches Kujo, his white fur cloak becoming matted with mud. “We suppose you may have some questions for Us...”

Brilliant! Thanks for the run, Snow, you seem to be back in top form again.

I feel like I have to tell you that you most likely mean "faint" when you say "feint," tho.

I love the Kaze no Bon idea. Very combat-y, but very, I dunno, feminine? Fits Kagome well.
>>
>>34002395

Thanks for running, Snow!

Did we get 1 x Lord of Flies Soul? Can we trade it in for weapons or special attacks?
>>
>>34002395
Yeeeees. Sub-Zero would be pleased. We should make sure Inuyasha get to wake up to a fire and some food. Repay the favor and all.

Glad to have played, Snow! I had plenty of fun! Leveling up sounds great, now. And we've gotten a firm start to our schoolgami powers.

Not a bad fight either. Me jumping the gun with Fate aside, we did quite well.

If you haven't guessed I tend to prefer continuous and fluid motion when it comes to combat which works very well with Kagomes personality.

Not really, but there's definite fondness. It's still early. Avoiding having no resolution by rushing to a fast resolution is just as bad.

That is a spooky thought. Though I can understand your reluctance to answer what if questions, since missing something good does tend to upset players. I'll refrain from now on, and we'll avoid that unnecessary bump in our feudal roadtrip!~

I'm pretty sure Yura loves Inuyasha. Or at least just wants to make out with him as she scalps him.
No one's gunna want to kiss her after tonight though.

Inuyasha does seem to be all about looking out for us though so we're certainly on a fast track compared to the painfully long slow burn that was the show.

Western Sorceror Lich that had lost his way perhaps? Fancy foreigner nobelman that was cursed by a passing demon? Shit man there can be thousands of reasons why that guy was like that.

Could be he was here under order of Naraku, but we'll never know until later when that baboon cloaked madman finally monologues.

Well, since I couldn't say it last night, I'll say it now:

>>34005768
Until the end of the manga, no. Even the second movie, which has things occur that show up later in the show, goes around claiming that they beat him within the first five minutes. They're all convinced, but there isn't a single viewer that is, and to no surprise, it's back to status quo at the end of the movie...

By request you were broken down. Humiliated. They claimed it was for a good cause, but you knew what it really was: Exile.

You were packed in small crates filled with hay and sealed tight to keep the elements at bay. Treated like cargo. Like a slave.

Your pine prison heaves up and down as a storm tosses the frail ship the Coven chartered for you. You hear men running about, panic in their voices. Fearing their lives would be lost to the unforgiving seas, however the cries of lesser men mean little to you.

A rope snaps and a man on the upper deck screams. You smile as blood and rainwater seep into your pine prison.

A boy pries at your lid the next day, eager to see what this exclusive cargo may hold. He flees and does not speak the rest of the voyage. Scavengers slowly begin their visits freshly born from spoiled rations and eager to pay tribute to royalty. Day by day you feel fuller. More complete.

The ship has docked and the men unload their cargo of measly jewels, spices, and weapons. Your box is carted to a young kings house and left among his taxes. You wait in silence.

Night falls and finally you have regained your strength. While less than eager to fulfill the Covens desires, finding this “Naraku” is of grave importance to you and your fellow kin. It has been centuries since one of you was last born.

A small man in a bathrobe shuffles about in the darkness with a torch, hastily pocketing a few coins before scurrying off. You reach out and touch him. His screams cut short by the loving embrace of rot and death. These chinamen have no respect for their rightful rulers. Perhaps you can carve out another kingdom for yourself once your task is complete. Every land deserves a loving ruler.

Oh, there weren't any Gaijin* demons in the show. That's for sure. But I do wonder how powerful compared to everything else it was. Or did it just think that everyone was pushovers?

Considering his dice pool was on par with ours most of the time, plus his modifiers I'd say he was pretty damn powerful and probably would have wrecked us had he had a chance to cast a spell or gotten serious.
Also it's pretty clear he was a flyman dude. Or at least made of a giant swarm/ flock/ whatever of the fuckers.

Muh thoughts:

>Only my second time trying the anime-ish style and only my third time digitally inking. Faces are fucking hard to ink and make look natural.
>Pretty pleased with the hands and feet, which are always a pain.
>Couldn't figure out how to resize without making some jaggies, adding shades of gray to the outline. My master copy is a million pixels large and has no such issues, so in theory would be easy to color.
>If I were to revisit, I would touch up the outline, try to fix the face, maybe redo the whole head. Might try coloring, I need digital coloring practice.

My thank-you for taking time to run, plus good practice. Don't feel obliged to use it for anything just because it's fanart (especially since it's uncolored, so not eye-catching), I think the screencaps are really working for you. Oh I made a sleeveless version too, and a thinner outline for coloring more like the show's style, but I like this better.
