>Remember how we got up here

You knock on the metal door, and get no response, as expected, really. You sit back down, holding your head in your hands, remembering how you managed to get up here. You were testing your boots out, jumping on gradually higher and higher things, and next thing you knew, you were up here, and haven't been able to get down for sometime, how long exactly you do not know, you may have taken a nap due to a combination of warm food and solitary silence.

You sigh heavily, and hear the door creak behind you.

You turn and see a boy holding a large coat over his shoulder, and with a rather impressive pompadour staring at you in confusion.

"Uhh" He says staring at you "Hi?"

"Hello" You say standing up.

"What are you doing up here?" He says "I mean this isn't really a popular place to have your lunch".

"I could ask you the same question" You say.

"I dislike crowds and eating with others" he says picking his teeth "Now why are you up here, and what's with the hoodie?"

"I was just thinking" you say walking past him "And it was a gift"

"Suuuuure" He says placing a brick to stop the door as you leave "well see you around cat ears". Ok that has to be the same person who picked you up, no two people would have such a silly hairstyle. You walk down the stairs, trying to ignore the peeling paint on the walls.

What do you do?

>>35348793

>>35348669
>>35348756
Why not. It was such amiinor point, I didn't even remember until now. But getting to know more people can't hurt.

>>35348863
Ok the way you worded that makes it seem like you meant to click the vote for talking to pompadour bro

>>35348917
It was me changing my vote.

As you make your way down the dust covered stairs, a questions pounds away in your head. Why did he help you, he didn't know you, why did he help you back up, it makes no sense. You stop, turn around and begin making your way back up, followed by a soft clicking each time your heels touch the floor.

You throw open the door and see the boy eating a sandwich, while sitting on one of the guard rails, you notice he has the same boots as you used to get up here.

"Why did you help me?" you ask

"I don't know what you're talking about" he says with a coy smile

"Don't bullshit with me" You say glaring "Why did you help me up when I was running from the poisons teacher". He wipes his mouth with his sleeve, chewing.

"Seemed like the thing to do, ya know" He says "wouldn't have sat right with my conscious to leave ya there, ya know?"

"I guess" You say "But It doesn't make any sense why you would".

"I'm a nice guy" He says "and as I said, felt like the thing to do".

"I wouldn't have done the same" You say "She could've done you in if she saw you do it".

"Neither would most people here" He says with a tone of disgust "and what's the point in living if you run away from everything that can hurt you, ya know?"

"Ok that I can understand" You say smiling "life is boring without a bit of danger, now isn't it?"

"Not exactly what I meant, but I suppose that's right as well" He says turning away

[] Event
The door swings open, you turn and see an agent, panting from running up the stairs

"Layla Miller" She says pulling her mask back to breath easier "Your aid has been requested by Maria Smith on a mission, do you accept her call for aid?". You blink a few times, somewhat confused at all of this

Looks like we might get to meet "Maria"

"Sure why not" You say smiling "Talk to you later pompadour guy".

"Later, cat ears" He says waving.

You follow the agent down the stairs and through the halls, all the way to building E, catching some rather strange looks.

You're lead into the back room, where you see Maria, holding what looks like some kind of high powered rifle. You duck instinctively. The man from last time you were here laughs.

"It's not like it's loaded" He says giggling.

"Can never be to safe around her" You say "nearly blown my head off twice, would have if she wasn't such a shitty shot".

"Yeah" Maria says smiling before realizing what you said "LAYLA!"

"Hey it's true" You say shrugging.

"Well I'll yell at you later" she says "Thanks for coming with me for this".

"So you finally got a taste for it then?" you ask.

"Oh no" She says " I just need to money to repay some....damages to school property and staff".

"What kind of damages?" You ask excitedly "depending on your answer I may be in love".

"Didn't know you two were a" The man says

"We aren't" You say "I just love destruction, specifically when it's on school grounds, like a fire at a dance, now that is something to love".

"As disturbing as ever then, Layla?" Maria says with a smirk

"Oh, so you were to girl who burnt down half a school before coming here" The guy says "If you were older I'd take you out for some drinks".

To drinks guy:
>And if you ever built up the courage to ask, I'd drug you up nice and good before leaving you to comfort of the fires as they burn down the building around you

[] ask why she needs help

"So who're we going to kill tonight?" You ask. The man hands you the information.

A picture of a young looking man with a well groom goatee and a seductive look in his eyes, or rather a painting of the man. A small label reads, Thradrick Brausr, Count of a small region of....a....you can't quite make out what's written there.

Reward: a thousand dollars, which must have taken a while for the peasants of the place to gather for this contract.

Bonus obectives: find the missing daughters of the town of Brausrburge, Place Thradricks head on a pike

Secret objective hint: the cup runneth over with scarlet.

Misc. You'll be working together with a student of the guild of the twisted rose, one of our allies, so please play nice.

You look at what maria took for the mission, and see she has three items on the small metal table

the rifle from earlier
a large and brutish looking knife
and ragged cloak

"So why did you need help on this anyways?" you ask as you place the dossier on the table

"Well you see" She says "You're better at this kind of stuff, and even though I still think you shouldn't be going around killing people until you heal, I also don't feel safe going alone"

"But there's a assassin from the rose place coming as well" You say smirking "do you just want to kill people with me?"

"NO" she shouts "it's just that I know and trust you you, I don't know her".

"You trust me?" you ask "for all you know I could be poisoning your food when you're not looking, or something".

"Well you aren't" She says "are you?"

"Not yet" you say smiling. Maria looks slightly frightened

"Oh I wouldn't poison my roommate" You lie with a small smile. She seems reassured,and smiles back

We'll only inject her with stuff we would inject ourselves.

"Ok" You say looking through your pack to make sure everything useful is there "Lets go"

"Don't you need anything?" maria says "Like maybe a gun or something"

"I don't use guns" You say "to loud and prone to problems, like losing them"

"Shut up" Maria says looking at her feet.

"Ok, so you'll be taken to the meeting point before you're taken to the actual mission area" The guy says "So follow me, we have to take a boat"

"A what?" Maria asks.

"Oh how exciting" You say following the man "come on Maria".

You're lead to a small wooden boat on the beach, and after a wordless trip across the waves, A odd looking ship appears on the horizon. The man grabs some flags and begins waving them in the air.

Within minutes you're at the edge of the ship, and some people in lab coats help you up as the man from building e rows back towards the shore

There's a set of three chairs on the deck, sitting in one is a girl in what looks like modern leather armor, wearing the lower half of a white mask. Her hair is a similar shade to yours, but she wears it a lot shorter, and she's around the same height as Maria

"Sit down" she says calmly

Get in before she asks us about the cat ears

"So what's your name" You ask as you sit down in the chair with three legs, and shaped somewhat like a rose "And what's with the mask".

"My name is Val, that is all you need and all you will hear" She says "and the mask, well" She takes it off, revealing a smileless face and a button nose, and the back of the mask, with interact inner workings and what looks like a place to put your mouth.

"Uhh" Maria says "what is all that exactly, looks complicated and....stuff".

"It's my most important tool" She says putting it back on "And you, the one dressed like a small child". You wait a few moments, hoping she means Maria and her somewhat too large clothes

"Oh fine, I get it, I look silly" You say raising your arms "But this is also my most important tool, see?"

"Wait, your hoodie holds syringes?" Maria ask

"Yeah, why else would I wear it?" You ask

"I thought you just liked the look of it" she says "what do you have syringes in your shoes as well?"

"No, but thanks for the idea" You say. Maria shakes her head

"So" Val says "lets get down to business, how are we going to kill Count Brausr"

"Right. I'll go in as a maid. Mask girl, you shadow me. We'll try to learn his routine and maybe poison him. Maria, you stay out in the hills. We'll send you a message on when to snipe his ass, if we can't find a good time to take him out."

>[x] teamwork

Long range shooting with modified rounds.

Judging from the hints at >>35350000 , This count is a cheap count Dracula clone, the further we are from him, the better.

>>35350877
No, Mask is there to search the place, see if the girls are on-site. While we're learning the man, Maria is going to be running long range surveillance, maybe see if the girls are elsewhere.

>>35350941
Maria is a horrible shot, she can't even hit a person in fornt of her, let alone snipe someone.

>>35350966
Rifle shooting and pistol shooting are actually quite different. Besides, she's got a scope.

>>35351022
If she can't hit a person with a pistol in front of her, she won't snipe anyone with a rifle either, scope or no. I'm willing to believe she could hit someone from a hundred meter away with scope and rifle, but sniping implies something a lot more long distance.

>>35351083
You seem to forget that she has this weapon for a reason.

And that reason is her opposite personality can probably shoot well.

"As much as I would love to leave the countryside a smoking crater, we need his head intact" You say "And while poison will work wonders, we have no idea the level of security the guy has, so we'll have to work together, gather information, maybe long range surveillance to be safe, need to find a way into his abode, which as much as I want to just walk in from the front door, I doubt we'd live long if we did". Maria and Val look at you wide eyed.

"What?" You ask

"I didn't think you'd be so" Val says "...prepared for this".

"Yeah, me to" Maria says "seeing as you like to run at your problems from what I've seen, but it's good to see you realize you aren't immortal"

"Oh I'm not going to be so careful" You say smiling "there's not fun in playing with loaded dice after all"

"I made a mistake bringing you didn't I?" Maria asks with a small smile

"Yes" You say "but hey, now if I die today, you can avenge me, isn't that nice".

"No" Maria mumbles

"So, the general plan is to gather information and be cautious" Val says "Seems rather basic, but the best idea we'll get from you two, we'll arrive in a few hours, I suggest you rest while you can". And with that she gets up and leave

We don't really know her Maria/"Maria" deal yet, I wouldn't go so far to believe its a full blown alt. personality that has skills different from hers, let alone assuming rifle shooting is among them.

Reenacting scenes might be amusing but we're on a job so we should rest while we have the chance. No point burning our stam so fast.

>>35351358
No one, we choose our jobs ourselves remember ? So Maria picked that one.

"Hey Maria" You say kicking your feet "want to reenact the scene from titanic?".

"Which one?" She asks "The I'm flying one, if so then yes".

"No I mean the one with the door and the ocean" You say laughing "You'd make a great Dicaprio". She looks at you and shakes her head with a smile.

"I doubt there's a wooden door around here anyway" she says standing up and walking away "I'm going to steel my nerves and think, feel free to come with me". You stretch and stand up.

"Nah, I think I'll snoop around a bit" You say walking away "hopefully I don't find something horrible". Maria shrugs and walks away. You search the ship, sneaking around and at one point imagining what it would be like to be a spy instead of an assassin, all the while avoiding the eyes of the people in lab coats.

You find yourself in the hold and notice a lot of metal boxes, most of them cold, but ontop of a box, like an offering to a god, is five bullets
with a strange appearance. there's some kind of orange liquid in them in they look like they're used for a rifle. you pocket them, in case Maria runs out or something

You get bored or wandering around and sit up on the deck, watching the clouds float by as the sky turns from blue, to a near black grey

"We're nearing shore!!" A woman's voice shouts over the intercom "Prepare a rowboat"

You notice Val sitting in a chair sipping from something, and Maria appears from a door, rubbing her eyes

You all load into a small boat with a motor, and head off, the sea smells of dead fish over here and is a foreboding, sickly grey

Soon you land on a beach, with more mud than sand, you can see a cottage on a cliff with lights on
Val is stretching
Maria is putting on the ragged cloak from earlier

What do you do
[] go up to the cottage
[] look around
[] fuck around like an idiot

>>35351671
>[] look around

>>35351671

>>35351671
>[x] look around

>>35351671
>[x] look around
Lets see if we can find anything more about that cottage and how many people are in it, before we approach.

You look around., taking in your surroundings.

You notice that the coast is covered with cliffs from what you can see, this being a small alcove with a small, worn down pier with one wooden ship rocking on the small waves of the ocean. there's the remains of a much larger ship nearby. Fish are rotting on the ground, decaying as birds pick at them. You cover your nose to avoid the stench. Maria doesn't seem to notice, and neither does Val

The cottage on the edge of the cliff, is a bit larger than Ms stones house/room. it has a straw roof, and is made from stone
there is a clothes line with enough clothes for one person.

There is one path out of the beach, up the cliff. It's made out of wood, rotten looking.

You can see smoke on the horizon.

"Ok, ready to head out" Val says "Operation begins now"

"Hmm" Maria says "right now, can't we prepare or something".

"The assassination will begin shortly" Val says "We must gather information".

"Oh thank god" Maria says happily "I'm not ready to, you know"

"You call yourself an assassin?" She asks

"No" Maria answers

"Oh come on now" You say "You killed, what two assassins in training that one time".

"Wasn't me, I already told you" She says glaring at you

"Okay" You say "Sorry, but hey, after this you will be one, no matter what". She looks kind of down at the thought of this

what do you do
[] go to the cottage
[] give Maria/val something
[] go towards the smoke

>>35351971
>[x] give Maria/val something
>Give Maria the bullets you found, for "good luck"

>>35351971

>[] go towards the smoke

>>35351971
>[] give Maria the bullets we found
>[] go towards the smoke

>>35351971
>[x] go towards the smoke

You reach into the pocket of your sweat pants and pull free the strange bullets, trying you best to hide them from Val.

"Hey Maria" You whisper close to your roommate "Take these, for good luck". You basically force them into her hand, winking as you walk away, watching to make sure Val didn't see the transaction.

"We should get off this place before anyone sees us" You say.

"Who would see us down here?" Maria asks following you towards the stairs

"You'd be surprised" Val say as she cautiously puts a foot down on a step, causing it to creek loudly.

"Why didn't we just get airdropped closer?" Maria asks sheepishly "Instead of having to walk up this rickety thing?

"Too much attention to be drawn" Val says quickly

"And besides" You say "you need the exercise".

"Y.yeah I do" She says with a weak laugh as she grips a rail, which falls off with a weak and impotent wet sounding crack.

"Ok, don't hold on the sides" You say "don't want you falling off now". Maria nods and follows close behind you, almost grabbing your back as she shakily makes her way up.

At the top you can see this place looks like the setting of a bad horror movie
with a creepy forest, long stretch of nothing but overgrown grass and rocks, and a village not to far off from the coast with stacks of smoke rising into the air, as well as a castle on the horizon

>>35352417
So ah, about the unarmed skill and sucker punch abilities?

You behind walking towards village. Val wordlessly following, While Maria makes a pathetic noise, that's somewhat cute, if it didn't tear at your heart and soul.

"So, what are the chance everyone here is verevolves" you say with a horrible accent "What about vampires?"

"Please don't talk about stuff about like that" Maria says weakly.

"Oh, I thought you'd love this kind of stuff" You say "You know from all the movies you watch".

"It's different in real life" Maria says grabbing her shoulders and shaking "We could actually die".

"Not really, and that's the fun part isn't it?" You say "and besides, it's not like verevolves and vampires are real". You hear Val chuckle, which makes Maria whine while looking at you.

"Poison and explosives solve all problems" You say putting your hands on the back of your head. Maria shakes her head no, unable to speak

There is a worn down dark green painted sign with the words Brausrburge in in chipped golden letters surrounded by ivy leaves
you can see some people milling about and few signs clacking in the wind.

You walk into the village, ignoring the protests of Val and Maria clinging on your arm shivering like a small dog.

You listen into some of the conversations, you can't understand whatever they're saying, they turn towards you and still speak not english.

"Vut is that you vearing?" A man with a large mustache asks

"A hoodie" You reply.

"Yes ve have those here" he says "but...the ears"

"It was a gift, from a friend" You say as maria hides behind you "Oh come on he isn't that scary, I mean the large dog next to him is, but still".

"Yes, you friend is right, I am not scary" he says "and neither is Vallus, aren't you Vallus, you're a big ol rug of kindness aren't you". The dog sniffs Maria, causing her to whimper slightly, which makes it lick her face.

"I mean he's the size of a horse" the man laughs "But he's as harmless as a newborn pup"

I'm all for not being afraid of the guy but I have second thoughts about this large and curious dude.

>>35353171
Not that anon, but I would put people I don't know under "not-trustworthy". Not to mention we have no idea about the local circumstances, we assume the townsfolk hired us, but we don't know if all of them are against the target.

>>35353044

>>35353171
I don't think "he must be on our side" is a good assumption to make when it comes to strangers.

>>35353171
It's the mustache. Large amounts of facial hair always means either wizard or villain, and neither of those are good to spend time around.

You put a hand on Wallus and pet softly, causing the dog to flop down panting.

"See, not at all scary" The man says smiling "a real push over really". Maria nods, but says nothing

"So, there was cottage outside of the town" You say "what's the deal with that".

"Why are you asking?" he says closing one eye "and I know you aren't from around anywhere near here".

"Me and my friend are on a trip through Europe" You say "And I'm interested in creepy cottages"

"Only two of you, surely you have some kind of guardian with you no, it isn't safe for young girls to be here alone" He says.

"There's another outside, she's taking pictures of birds" You say smiling "And what do you mean by that?"

"Nothing" he says taking off his round almost bag like hat and begins scratching his what remains of his hair "And old Villhem lives there alone, since the tragic passing of his daughter, crazy old man says our ....kind count was the cause, but it was simple sickness, a tragedy, but not a m murder". You can see anger in the man's eyes, burning softly behind pain.

"Any stores around here?" You ask.

"None that you'd be interested in" He says

"You don't know that" You say

"Not much, unless you want food, clothing, or a souvenir". You nod

Lets go to a store just to defray his suspicions.

I don't want him guessing what we're up to.

(fuck lost the first draft of this post)

"Well thanks for the chat" You say "I need to make sure my other friend isn't being weird" the man nods.

"Well just stay safe, and find shelter before dark" He says tottering off with Wallus following close behind "and enjoy your stay and Brausrburge".

"I will" You say waving a hand as you turn around and walk towards the edge of town "and Maria, I didn't know you were scared of dogs".

"I'm not, that just wasn't a dog" she says.

"Oh if Wallus could hear you right now he'd cry" You say. Maria shakes head

"Though I don't trust his owner much" You say

"Is it because he looks like bear pretending to be human?" she asks

"No, it's the mustache" You say "anyone with that much facial hair has to be hiding something". Maria giggles.

"Yeah, it looked like all the hair on his head went to his lip" she says.

"Hey that's rude" You say with a large smile "and probably true" .

You find Val looking at the sky.

"What are you doing?" Maria asks.

"Watching birds, I thought I'd leave the talking to you two" She says "not a people person".

"I can see" you say. Val nods.

"So what did you find?" she asks,

"Well Maria has a fear of dogs" You say "and the owner of the cottage lost his daughter recently".

"That doesn't sound important at all" She says glaring.

"He may know something" you say jogging towards the cottage

"LAYLA" Maria shouts running after you "Don't leave me alone"

"Amateurs" Val sighs

Soon
you're outside of the cottage, Maria is panting and leaning against the wall

That way we get to see if anything is being hidden and Layla has a way of being not suspicious despite doing suspicious things.

>>35354333
We want peope to actually open that door. No one ever opens for door-salesman.

>>35354333
Layla needs to get proper language lessons before we can try this kind of lulziness.

You knock on the seaworn door. You hear what sounds like cursing, and the door swings open. And a pitchfork is pushed an inch from your face.

"BEGONE DEMONS" An old man who looks like her was made out of twigs and stick with a beard touching the floor, shouts "I can see you for vat you are, blood thirsty heathens from hell itself". Maria is staring at him, with a strange look in her eye.

"You know, you are the second person this month to call me that" You say pushing the pitchfork down with your hand "I just want to know about your daughter".

"She's dead, killed by your kin of the night" he says sadly, pointing the pitchfork at your face again "Now leave me before I send you back to your fetid den, beast".

"She isn't a demon" Maria says in a strangly harsh tone"We are here to kill Thradrick Brausr, tell us about your daughter, and quickly lest you try my patience". The man looks at her.

"Two little sheep to the volves den?" He says sadly "Run off little sheep, this is no place for you".

"Yes it is" Val chimes in, finally arriving here "As my associate said, we are here to kill that "Man". The old man throws his arms dramatically

"Oh voe is me, three girls playing knights charging to there doom" He sobs "Come in and I shall heed your last vish". And with that the crazy old man walks back into the cottage. You follow, Maria taking an oddly time to come in, looking a tad tazed.

The man is sitting at a table with two chairs, a plate of rotting food in front of one chair, you can't tell what it used to be

"So what do you vish to know about my lost star" He says taking a swig from a large bottle

All of the above.

And we might have to go back to the village since I'm not entirely buying the vampire story.

Not sure if that makes a difference to us. If he is a vampire, that would be a issue, but if he isn't, then it doesn't really matter does it ?

Target details, location, appearance, habits, supporters, enemies, how he kills, etc.

"So what did your daughter look like?" you ask

"Oooooh, she was a scarlet haired angel sent from above to grace my and my vives life" He says taking another swig "Such a pretty things he was, and that made him want her". He downs the rest of the bottle and grabs another one from under the table

"I don't think we'll learn anything from him but how long it takes a live to fail" Val says

"Wait" You say "What was she like"

"THE K..Kindest little shthign" he laughs "she had not a single mean bone in her body, her smile could warm the devil's heart and make a miser give every coin he held to the poor, and now she...shes gone". The man drinks have the bottle and begins to wobble.

"You're killing him" Maria cries

"Don't care" You say "How did she die?". You tilt your head and smile widely. The man places his now shaking hand on his forehead

"She...was in the fields, picking flowers" He said "for her sweetheart, A man who I never loved, but he's a nice sort, and the count's men grabbed her and...they took her away...when she came back she was ill and...she". the man looks at you and then the bottle, and drinks the rest of it, placing it down, before falling head first onto the table

"Well, that was depressing" Val says

"Poor old man" Maria says dragging him to a armchair in the corner of the cottage

I think it is more like Elizabeth Bathory. Hopefully

He's an old fart who drank too much and might choke on his own vomit and die.

>>35355071
Just put him on his side and he won't choke on his vomit. it's that simple.

>>35354924
Back to the village store I say.

Apparently we need clothes. And other items.

You search the cottage, and find a dresser of pretty and flowery dresses, one of which is covered in dried blood.

"What are you doing Layla?" Maria asks

"looting" You say putting a dark green dress with images of roses on the hem into your backpack "You always said to loot everything"

"Only in video games!" She shouts as she makes sure the old man is comfortable "And those are his last mementos of his daughter, you can't just take them"

"I'm only taking one" You say "and besides, he won't notice, he's crazier than Ms stone".

"Who?" Val and Maria ask

"the poisons teacher, acts like a less subdued me" you answer , Maria 's face turns into a grimace of horror as she imagines what Ms stone must be like.

"I don't understand anything you just said" Val says grabbing another dress.

"You too?!" Maria shouts

"We do not have any of the regional currency" she says stuffing the pink dress into a small bag hanging on her side.

"You're both horrible" Maria pouts placing a wet towel on the old man's head.

>>35355443
this

You take off your hoodie, and put the dress on over your shirt and and sweat pants. It looks good on you, though you're afraid you'd trip on the long hem of it, which wouldn't be good at all. You twirl around, giggling like the schoolgirl you are. You take it off and offer it to Maria, she shakes her head angrily. You stuff it back into your pack and head out. You and Val wait outside for a few minutes, before Maria comes and joins you.

"So what now?" She asks

"We go an ask more questions" You say jogging back to the village

What do you ask
[] about the count
[] about the town

I think we should only ask about the count when the rumors give us something to ask him about. Lets not be too suspicious.

Val follows you into town, but quickly breaks off, while Maria sits down next to a building as you go around asking question.

"Hear anything from the grapevine" You ask an old woman, knitting outside her house.

"Vell, I heard that hallow girl holding some foreigners bastard" She says smiling a wide near toothless smile.

"Anything else?" You ask.

"Vell I heard the count is looking for a bride" A old woman across the street says "about time if you ask me". That could be useful.

"So what can you tell me about Brausrburge?" you ask a young woman selling bread "it's for a paper".

"Vell it vas founded by Thradrick's ancestor, Vallace Brausr, centuries ago, and it's been around ever since" She says "Now do you want to buy some bread?"

"No, I just ate" you lie.

"Your stomach says otherwise" She says smiling pointing a piece of bread at you.

"So what's the deal with the forest?" You ask munching on a piece of hard bread that tastes a bit salty

"Do not go in there" the mustachioed man from earlier says "Volves you see, that have grown up on brausrburge blood, nasty beast that hunger for man".

"Sounds fun" You say. the man shakes his head

"You foreigners sure are suicidal" He sighs

You walk over to Maria

"We're going into the forest" You say to her smiling. she stares at you for a few moments.

"W...why" she asks sheepishly, her eyes wide with fear

"Man eating wolves" you say "or at least I was told there were man eating wolves, I want to see one, and you're coming with me". She shakes for a few minutes, before her eyes go blank

"Layla" She says, her voice losing every ounce of fear "Lets talk about why you aren't going to go into that forest".

"But I am" You say "you aren't going to stop me, and besides it's not like I can't kill a glorified malnourished dog". She gets far too close and stares into your soul with her empty eyes.

"Won't I now, I think I will" She says "I don't wish you to be torn apart by mere beasts, I will restrain you if necessary". Maria is acting weird.

>>35356514
I thought about it. If she's in murder mode she's likely to shoot us and either kill/kneecap us to prevent us from going.

>>35356554
She said "I don't wish you to be torn apart by mere beasts, I will restrain you if necessary"

Also, she can't murder us with muscle relaxants in her.

>>35356593
Assassin school. Murder hobos. This is her murder face. Retrain could easily mean snap spinal cord.

Then bashful Maria would just feel so awful and spoon feed us for the rest of our lives... life? Plural to singular is odd. I wonder if the voices in other peoples heads have this problem.

>>35356593
I wouldn't be so sure, besides the fact that she has a pretty good point, since without the other two, we probably would be killed by wolves, I'm not sure we could actually get our syringe out and into her. She is a lot stronger than us, and she knows whats coming.

>>35356637
Muscle relaxants.

Seriously. She can't do shit.

>>35356637

>>35356640
> I'm not sure we could actually get our syringe out and into her
If she's going to try to subdue us unarmed we're just going to jab her somewhere, like her arm.

Syringe is a bad weapon against real weapons, but fists and stuff are just presenting targets.

>>35356719
Fighting one of our teammates before an assassination... is asinine.

Do you really want to jack her up on relaxants before we need her to shoot something?

>>35356737
It'll wear off by the time we actually get to our target.

And trying to subdue us by force is also rather asinine.

>>35356719
We would need to get our hand on our syringes first. Which she can easily prevent.
Also, why would we want to anyway, she isn't doing anything right now. We casually threaten her with poisining all the time, its not something to get worked up about in a company of killers. This shit isn't nearly important enough to tear our team apart over.

"Hi "Maria" You say giddily "I've been dying to meet you".

"You've already met me, and me" She says "But we aren't going into the forest, it's in your best interests to not even try to run".

"Look if you're an evil count where would you hide the daughters you've stolen" You say "in the forest, I know I'm clever, no need to praise my genius"

"I'd hide them in a cellar, chained to the wall" She says "a forest has wild animals and exposure to the elements, a poor place to keep toys"

"Look we may find something in there anyways" You say "Who knows what we'd find in there, it's exciting just thinking about it". She stares at you unblinking

"Trees, leaves, dirt, and wild animals" She says "I doubt anyone is stupid enough to hide anything of any importance in a forest, unless they needed to bury it from public eyes".

"like corpses, or gold" You say "You can hide anything in there, it will be fun come on".

"No reason to hide corpses when you have loyal subjects with tight lips" She says "And look at this place, they couldn't afford copper to hide, let alone gold".

"Fiiiiine" You sigh slapping your forehead with your palm "No forest, but if we don't find the girls in the castle, we're checking the forest". Maria smiles, and jolts for a second, she stares at you looking slightly confused. Maria is acting like her usual self once more. You drag the stunned and confused Maria while looking for Val, who you find, sitting on a roof, looking through a strange device.

"Looking at birds?" you ask .

"Oh yes, there are some indigo breasted swallows on that tree over there" She says "And some lazy guards by the east gate getting drunk with a well payed village girl".

"Clever" You say

"Thank you" She says hopping down.

"But what if she gets taken!" Maria shouts, causing Val to put her hand on her mouth, shhhing her as Maria's eyes briefly go blank and empty.

"Then she will die" Val says "but no other girl will follow her fate, which is why we are here".

"That's kind of messed up" You say "and wrong, but I suppose if it works we shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth, come on Maria, may be able to save her if we kill the bastard quickly". Maria nods

Are high rolls bad in this quest?

>>35357321
>>35357334
I wasn't thinking much at the time, I'll be more clear when Layla is bullshiting in the future

>>35357364
High rolls are fine. Lucky coin makes any roll into a crit, and it turns a crit into a supercrit.

Trouble is most of the time a supercrit isn't worth a coin.

So we just save them for averting disaster or doing ridiculous untrained shit.

>>35357407
>doing ridiculous untrained shit
Mostly in the event that this would actually be mission-critical.

>>35357407
Well would a super crit make the count walk through the gate as we did? Or mean they opened all the doors of the castle because why the hell not?

Has a supercrit ever been used? Sorry new to the quest. Don't have time to archive binge.

>>35357432
We have only ever once used a lucky coin, which was to avert complete failure, so we don't really have a dimension for what a super crit does.

>>35357432
This is only our second coin, and the first saved us from a terrible situation so we're really loathe to use this second one outside of a life or death situation.

>>35357432
We haven't supercritted yet. If it gets us all the way to the count it might be worth a coin, but I'd rather save coins so that we could actually have more than one for once. If it seems like we can do it without a coin, spending a coin is usually a bad option.

Last coin was spent on averting disaster when we had shit rolls on poisoning the yakuza boss. Autocrit made it a clean success instead of the highly probable death otherwise.

>>35357453
>>35357466
Understood.

In theory it might be possible that we get a situation where we would need a super crit to succeed at all. Someone trying to poison Layla would probably need one for example, that might also work the other way, but we don't know.

>>35357432
>Has a supercrit ever been used?
We've only had one other crit so far I think, and that's when we were sucker punching someone in close quarters combat class. GM offered us a coin option but we declined because that seemed like a phenomenal waste.

"Follow me" You say "I have a fun little idea". You slowly walk up to the path to the castle, noticing it is a dark shade of grey than the rest of the stone buildings around here. You see the front gate is heavily guarded by men dressed like two bit knights, wielding two bit rifles.

There are some bushes nearby, which you lead Maria and Val into

"Layla" Maria says "what are you doing".

"Watch" You say, before putting on a the poor accent from earlier "VOLVES VOLVES VOLVES HELP HELP!!!". the guards scream something in whatever langauge they speak and run off.

"I didn't think that would work" You say laughing at the aghast faces of Maria and Val "well lets go"

"What is she?" you hear Val ask as you practically skip towards the gate

"A bit crazy" Maria says "You get used to it in a few days". You shake the gate, locked, but you find they left there keys. You don't show the others

"We should go around, they'll be back any" Val begins as you unlock the gate

"Wa la" You say bowing as Val glares at you.

"There's a reason we're called the guild of the lucky coin" Maria says smugly with a giggle

You are now in castle grounds

what do you do
[] go through the front door
[] Val any way in?
[] Look around for the girls
[] write in

>>35357555
>[x] Val any way in?

>>35357555
>[] Val any way in?

>>35357555
>[] Val any way in?
About time she starts pulling her own weight.

>>35357555
>[] Val any way in?

"Val, Anyway in?" You ask, looking at the large wooden door with handles that look like small decapitated heads covered in gold

"Well there's the front door you are fucking with your eyes" She says calmly "A couple of windows, a sewer system, and various side doors".

"I think we should stay as far away from the sewer as possible" Maria says.

"Seems like a plan" You say

"But it's the most efficient way to get in" Val says angrily "Every other way would likley end with our capture and death"

"Two votes against one" Maria says happily jumping up and down.

"So what do you suggest?" Val asks angrily

"Side doors" Maria said "he can't have all of them under lock and key, and it's far more pleasant way in than trudging through waste"

What do you say
[] front door
[] sewers
[] side doors
[] windows

>>35357745
>[x] side doors
Who the fuck wouldn't lock up his sewer? No one wants to deal with the rat infestation that would invite.

>>35357745
>[] sewers
Just because it's fun to mess with Maria.

>>35357745
>[] sewers

>>35357745
>sewers

Sorry Maria.

>>35357745
>[x] sewers
Its the classical approach.

>>35357745
[x] sewers, and we put the clothes in the bags so that we can clean off later and put those on if need be.

>>35357745
>[x] sewers
>See it like this Maria, there would have been no sewers in the forest

>>35357745
>>35357952

>>35357952

>>35357952
Yes. Being Catty. I support this course of action.

You need to start writing is something before copying it here.

"Sewers" You say Smiling like the devil himself

"Thanks for agreeing with me" Maria says before her ears catch up with her brain "WAIT WHAT, WHY?!" She grabs you buy your hoodie

"Because I knew your reaction would be hilarious, And look at this way, there would be no sewers in the forest". Maria glares at you

"Show the way then, Val" you say, she nods and leads you to a grate hidden in a corner. She lifts it with a strange metal bar thing

"So who wants to have the honors" She says covering her nose

"I will" You say taking off your hoodie, and jamming it into your back pack that you then hand to Maria to hold "See you on the otherside". Maria nods at you as you leap down.

You shriek in shock at how warm and liquid it is, before realizing that it doesn't smell that shitty down here, and in fact smells like copper

"Blood?" You say look at the red river you're standing in, it's to thin to be just blood, must have something in it to stop it from coagulating.

"Are you serious right now?" Maria says sounding like a kicked puppy "Do you think it's"

"No I don't think it belongs to the girls" You say "to much of it, maybe animals blood or something". Val jumps in with a splash

"Hurry" she says wading off "don't want to catch something".

"Come on Maria, the water is fine" You laugh as you follow Val

*splash*

After awhile of walking you find a grate with a dim light shining through

Who do you vote to go first
[] yourself
[] maria
[] val

>>35358300
>[x] yourself

>>35358300
>[x] val
She talks so big, after all.

Building sewers for your extra blood is pretty metal

Anyone else ?

>>35358300

>>35358300

If vampire is an option we so have to snag that. We'd make a bitching vampire.

>>35358498
I cannot disagree with that

You grab the grate, with some help (Maria and Val grabbing your legs and boosting you up) manage to move it aside and scramble up. You look up from the cold and filthy ground and see a silahoutte, with arms outstretched, move to dodge from being grabbed

and then realize that it isn't moving, you look around and gasp, in a mixture of admiration and fear. The room is filled with dead bodies, all women around your age, tied to the ceiling via chains wrapped around there bodies, there arms outstretched, their necks and wrists slitted. There are empty but stained bowls under them, used for collecting blood.
There are some stairs in the corner
and torches light the room

"Uhhh, holy fucking shit" You say laughing nervously.

"What?" Maria ask sound concerned,

"Ve are dealing vith and vampire" You laugh "or someone who thinks they're one".

You help Val up and she begins inspecting the bodies, putting needles into them and tapping her chin

You pull Maria up and the second she sees the sight of the drained corpses her eyes turn empty and blank again. Maria is acting odd again

What do you do now
[] why did they use so many chains
[] clean up
[] leave

>>35358644
>[] why did they use so many chains

>>35358644
>[x] why did they use so many chains
Let's also strike up a conversation with the other Maria, she seems fun.

>>35358644
[] why did they use so many chains

>>35358690
>DON'T GO INTO THE WOODS WITH WEREWOLVES
>FUN
Pick one.

>>35358644
>[] why did they use so many chains
>ask Maria if she's okay.

>>35358644
>>35358644
>[x] why did they use so many chains
>[x] clean up

>>35358716
She just wanted to steer us towards the vampires, we're better as a vampire anyway.

>>35358742
Yeah.. I agree. Still miffed though. We would have made a great red riding hood.

>>35358754
But then the big bad would would have died of fatal poisoning from ingesting a tainted grandmother

>>35358800
I motion we get our mace spray ready.

>>35358856
Mace spray sounds good.

Why did they use so many chains?
"Why did they use so many chains?" You ask looking at the cocoons of metal hanging from the ceiling.

"Yeah" "Maria" Says "it's should only take four at max to keep them in place, this isn't normal".

"Yeah, it's like they didn't want them moving around or something" You say "Maybe Brausr has a heavy bondage fetish or something"

"Maybe" She says nodding "Maybe he did it to look intimidating and terrifying".

"Well if that's so" You say Smiling "He failed, terribly".

"Yep" She says in that weird monotone.

"What are you two going on about?" Val asks

"nothing" you and maria say

You clean up and put back on your hoodie

What do you do

[x] Prepare syringes and get out our mace spray.

I notice it isn't on the inventory list but it was part of our grocery list.

>>35188968
>After a few minutes of insult throwing and back and forth arguing, you leave with a pair of the jump boots (and a note explaining the danger of extended use) A simple blue swimsuit, some mace, and you already had some rubber gloves

See? We have mace.

>>35358889
>[] prepare syringes

>>35358924
this.

>>35358924
It's the most ranged weapon Layla has, so lets go with that.

>>35358889
[x] prepare syringes

>>35358983
Actually we also have small marbles and Layla has a good throwing arm. We could probably put out people's eyes with those.

>>35359003
Not a very good weapon though. We should probably look into throwing knives later.

You set down your pack, giggling madly as you pull out several bottles and syringes.
Items gained
3 pottassium overdoses
3 paralytic injections
3 shots of morphine
3 dose of muscle relaxant

"Ok ready to go" You say placing the last syringe in place. And then you notice you're alone

"They" you say "left me, oh what fun what fun". You grab your bottle of mace and put it in you pouch pocket as you race up the stairs, hoping to not find them, so you can savor this rush.

You end up in a hallway, covered in torches and paintings of grim looking depressed people, as well as a pastel blue rug with images of dancing pigs on it, how interesting. You keep walking humming to yourself as you walk along, looking at suits of broken armor and weaponry put on display, all covered in very old blood. You find yourself in the main hall

the floor is marble, there is a large green rug in the center, a double stair case leads to the different wings, a chandelier swings back and forth. And you hear voices coming closer.

So, jump up while smiling like the cheshire cat, then?

>>35359116

No, that ruins the stealth, but the cheshire cat smile is fine.

>>35359139
Appears so. I'm not one to argue with a 20.

>>35359100
I can't even imagine what a supercrit of jumping onto a chandelier would be, so no.

>>35359100
No thanks.

>>35359148
>giggles internally.

You crouch down and leap, flying through the air like some kind of bird, or a character from the shows Maria watches. You grab a hold of the chandelier and somehow don't pull it down as you pull yourself and sit down on it, smiling like the cheshire cat, oh if only your teeth were sharper, may need to get a file and fix that really. You watch as a girl in a dirty T Shirt and one of the guards stumbled around singing drunkenly, You begin giggling at the sight of them, causing them to look around, So you giggle louder and more child like. The begin to rush across, looking around as they do, looking for the source of the laughter as you feel a warmth rise in your chest as they nearly stumble over themselves while you sit up here. They leave, leaving you alone, with your giggles echoing. Do you really sound like that? How odd,, doesn't sound like you
