You like to think yourself a healthy young fledgling but your wings are starting to weigh on you, it’s been at least an hours flight since you left the nest behind and it’s been nonstop. Each passing branch looks like a good place to rest and catch your breath, after all it would be bad to go hunting while tired.

Dice System is 1d100, Best of 3 rolls, Roll over the DC.
There are sometimes multiple DCs to a single roll ranging from Critical Fail-Major Fail-Failure-Success-Major Success-Critical Success.

There will be roughly 10-15 minutes for voting and updates will take place on average of 20-40 minutes after I call the vote.

After all sessions I will stick around for Q&A. Feel free to ask me silly questions, tell jokes, and hang out with your QM.

>>45784927
As others have said, you guys haven't done much yet. Expect EXP grind today.

Also, as >>45785122 said, it was a slightly larger than average snake, you were just the size of a toddler.

Also, I remember someone a while back asked me about Dad's accent. He doesn't actually have an accent, all language is translated into english by your mind, so because he speaks a different dialect from Wendaic, even if he speaks Southern Imperial.

Some anon in the last thread mentioned SamMii having a PTSD freakout if Mom did the "carry thing high into the air and drop it on a rock" method of hunting that eagles do with crabs and turtles.

The question is HOW she would freak out.

>shoots over and grabs the prey from midair, keeping it from sharing her fate?
>wings seize up and she starts plummeting to the ground alongside the hapless prey?

>>45786080
Fit enough to fly off with some poor human sucker to take advantage of.

>>45784764
No, you can’t give in to being a little tired, that’s how your last life went, you took a few steps in the wrong direction, or well, didn’t take any steps at all, and wound up on a slippery slope towards obesity. You’ve learned from your mistakes, and even if you no longer have that body, you can’t let this one wind up the same way. You pump your little wings frantically to keep the pace, no pain no gain, remember what that Amanda girl from Waldon Pond said, hardwork and determination, kick your old habits. Your lungs feel like they are igniting, your throat is dry, but you aren’t sweating yet, you’ve still got energy to spare, somewhere in your little birdy bones.

You look over to your twin who seems to be even worse off than you, lagging behind from her position just a bit before speeding to catch up, it seems for the both of you, even with the safe draft of Mom’s wake, flying for long distance is an arduous task. Your twin’s eyes meet yours and it looks like she is pleading for a stop, but you know that to do so now would be folly, no matter how cute and pleading a look she gives is, and besides the hills are just up ahead.

In moments, your family breaks the dense treeline, into the rolling foothills, small birds down in the long grass fly up and scatter before you, and you can hear the rustle of underbrush as creatures unseen flee to escape the shadows of your family, a ways off you can see a great herd of deer like animals with angular horns bound away following a great stag of iridescent beauty, you hear the howl of some wolfen beast off in the distance, no doubt the land before you is filled with the untamed beauty of nature.

>>45786433
You family settles down in a dead tree, your twin and you landing upon the same branch, your twin almost crashing into you but managing to come up just short of doing so, your older sister takes a branch closer to your mother who rests at the top off the tree. You and Mai lean up against one another panting as your heart beats like a hummingbird’s wings. Exhausted the two of you rest up, side by side, as you catch your shallow breaths. Ciel seems to be doing ok, no doubt her larger lungs and wing span allowing her to make this trip easily but even so her breathing is out of pace. Mom doesn’t even seem to be phased by the journey as she looks down at the three of you, then out upon the surroundings, and then back at her girls.

“Alright my little ones, today we will be learning how to hunt, most of you should know a trick or two on how to already, from genetic memories, so I’m here to make sure my darlings don’t get into any trouble. Even though you can fly, there are many predators out there, so I’ll keep watch on you all, if I think things are going poorly then I will show you how it is done and fly you all back nest. Understand?”

You nod weakly, and see your twin and older sister do the same. It seems Mom is more of an observer here than an active participant. Kinda like how you were taught to ride a bike, but more dangerous. The response makes your mother ruffle up with pride.

“Alright my little ones, then, there are many creatures that roam these hills, but one of the easier prey species are the Uni-rabbit, they have long ears and a single horn. It shouldn’t be hard for you to find them as there are so many. If you could each hunt one for dinner tonight that would be more than enough. I’ll be nearby hunting the main diner. If any of you get into trouble I want you to give the signal for me to come right away. It will be this….”

>whenever harpies fly over a village the mothers and sisters hide their sons and brothers

>>45786451
Your mother rises slightly and lets out a long twirling tweet that seems to echo through the hillside. You’re pretty sure you can do it easily, so once again you nod, starting to get impatient. You gulp, finally having caught your breath, you can stand up freely, but your twin still leans upon you, seemingly still out of breath herself.

“Ok, my little chickadees, then I believe in each of you that you can do this. Go ahead, show Mama what you can do.”

It seems your mother has given you free reign to hunt the hillside and a quest to go with it.
>QUEST #1: A Bird’s First Hunt!<
>Kill a Uni-bunny and Return it to your mother.<

You look to your siblings, Ciel is already beating her wings in an attempt to fly off in search of her prey, while Mai still rests her head on your wing, seeming to wait for you to make the first move. Seems she is set on accompanying you in this hunt.

Mom's relying on our genetic memory to help us out, but we don't have that. There could be some important details to swooping upon prey that we haven't considered, and I'd like to avoid any 'three clam shells' embarrassment.

Let's hunt some goat deer.
That's what you mean by angular horns right? Goat horns?

>>45786703
I seriously doubt we'd have anything bigger than a B cup, maybe a C. Large breasts are things harpies do not have because they would screw up their flying.

>>45786856
>because they would screw up their flying.
Magical world, Things can operate differently here, Plus it'd be fun.

>>45786856
So says fictional logic. Harpies don't exist saying what will or will not affect their flying is bullshit.

Don't ruin the dream man....

Hopefully we're not going to hunt something TOO big.

And yet harpies don't exist because it wouldn't work and are fantasy no? Therefore logic be damned.

>>45786475
You finish catching your breath alongside your sister before moving a bit aways, she is caught unawares and stumbles on the branch, causing it to rock and sway beneath your talons but the two of you hold fast.

“Ready, Sister?” you ask her as you give an experimental flap of your wings in preparation for flying off.
“Yes, Sis, I just need a sec to…” she goes to say but you are already taking off.
“Hey, wait!” she calls out as you leave the dead tree behind, once more taking to wing as the grass beneath you becomes like a blur of a green ocean, your hair whipping back, the wind rushing past, you lift and pitch and sway on the breeze as you soar over the hills.

In less than a minute Mai has caught up to you, flapping her wings to keep your pace.
“Come on, Mii, you’re always in such a rush. Besides, there are Uni-bunnies everywhere.” She whines as you hear rustling in the grass below, every so often spotting a flash of spiraled ivory run past.
“Well, that’s fine Mai, but we aren’t hunting Uni-bunnies.”
“Whaaat? But Mom said-”
“We already hunted bigger and tougher things than bunnies together Mai. Now come on, don’t you want to impress Mom?”
“Well yeah, Mii, but-”
“Then its settled, we’re gonna hunt something impressive and bring it back.”
“Ok…”

Your sister lets out a sigh as the two of you crest over a hill together. The landscape open before you, your eyes scan the area for possible prey.

>>45787370
You angle up and take to a slightly higher altitude, you already chose what you wanted to hunt down the moment you arrived here, those funny looking deer that were bounding away at the mere sight of you. Deer are a prey animal, you remember that from your last life, wolves, bears, humans, all ate deer, plus they are herbivores, and there are a ton of them here so what does it matter if you take one? You scan the area and, There! The iridescent stag followed by its posse, you flap your wings to pick up the pace.

“There, Mai, see those things.”
“What you mean that herd? Mii, I don’t think this is a good idea, they have horns and that one in the front…”
“Nonsense, these things just scream prey, now come on.”

You manage to catch up with the galloping herd, and several of the deer below seem to notice, some bounding wildly as they path to follow their large and imposing leader, and it is then that you see the reason why you thought that these deer had funny looking horns. Each male seems to have at least two long sword blade like horns that scythe out from their craniums. The leader up front, in addition to shining with the light of a rainbow also has no less than sixteen bladed prongs, and is nearly twice the size of the others in its herd. The females all seem to be the same brownish coloration, and lack the horns that the males have. It’s a vast group, and you’ll have to pick one out of them to aim for that is, if you even know how to attack…

why go after the smaller males
they still have blade heads

the females would be far easier

>>45788255
EXP. Males still have weapons meaning we'll gain more level up stats.

Also! The larger male is probably not inclined to protect the smaller males who are outcasts as they are no longer apart of the pack and a threat to his leadership.

Further the lead male has the duty of protecting the herd and will intervene.

>>45788082
>>One of the smaller males lagging behind.

>>Harass it till it falls over?

No a 98 means we harass them and they like it.

>>45788082
You look over the herd, the females are sticking close to the center of the herd, the children with them, neither group seems like very good targets, even though they are weak it would mean braving a forest of blades to get to any of them. You could go after the leader, but he is actually really imposing and you think that his size is just a little too large for you and your twin to handle. On the other hand there are several smaller males lagging in the rear that seem just big enough to sink your talons into without being in too much of harm’s way.

“You take right side, I’ll take left.” You tell her.
“Alright Sis, but if things go wrong-“
“Trust me, have I ever led you wrong before?”
She doesn’t answer, she might be shaking her head but its hard to tell when you are both flying. So you’ll just take this as her saying you’ve never steered her wrong.

The two of you flank the herd, listening to the thunder of hooves as they pound the landscape beneath you, you wait for one of the young males to screw up and lose faith in the safety in numbers. You swoop low causing them to dart away. Then your sister does likewise, the tail end of the hear weaving to and fro until, there, one of the four pronged males goes to make a break for it.

“This on Mai, hurry.”
“Gotcha Mii.”
1/2

>>45789218
The two of you break away from following the heard to chase down the rebel. The deer bounds left and right, trying to lose the two of you, but even as it darts to one side it finds itself faced with your talons, when it darts the other way your sister’s greet it. There is no escape, it tries to make a daring turn but its hooves catch upon a rock and send it feet over horns into a crash kicking up dust and debris into the air.

The beast scrambles to rise, still fearful of the predators chasing it down, and that is the moment when you fall upon it, your red talons sinking deep into its carotid artery, your talons rip its throat away and blood gushes forth at high volume, the deer struggles and gasps for air and life, writhing under your talons, but it is already dead. Your sister lands nearby and watches the spectacle, as you back off of the deer as it breathes its last, muscles still firing and causing it to twitch and spasm.

>Razor Deer SLAUGHTERED<

You breathe a few breaths of excitement and exertion the chase took a bit out of you, but you still feel able to take on the day. Your twin looks over to you,
“So, how are we gonna get this back to mom?” She asks looking at the dead herbivore.

Fish quest when?

>>45789489
It died.

>>45789399
>>45789454
Don't worry about it, I have a zoology degree it's just a minor annoyance, and for the record deer tend to avoid large groups, unless we're talking about elk or caribou which are larger than the "regular" deer.

Why do I get the feeling that 62 isn't enough for two little Harpies to carry off a Razor Deer Carcass?
Perhaps we should restore some of our energy by eating a bit of it thus lighten the load making it easier to carry...

>>45789489
It died sadly, It was rather good to.

>>45789543

>>45789545
The writing was top notch

>>45789465
Well you get it off the ground, sorta, not really.

>>45789489
Originally I debated between fish and harpy and well, harpy won out in the end. Then fish was really good, sad that it died.

>>45789525
Good to know for the future, tbf though the Razor deer range in size from normal to their Moose size leader. Glad to have someone with a degree here.

I actually like Lotus. I just automatically assume the worst. Lotus was the only time it paid off.

>>45789727
Too much salt is bad for your heart.

>>45789836
The only really bad thing that happened in that quest was from players being stupid. The rest was mindless butthurt over a QM having plans that aren't nothing but easy challenges and good feels in a dark setting.

>>45789911
It wasn't even supposed to BE a grimdark quest in the first place, In the preplanning threads he went about it being a happy cute stuff quest, So he flat out lied.

>>45789967
>Implying that was grimdark
>Implying there wasn't more happy cute stuff than anything else

>>45789967
Well I mean to be fair Nadia was the cutest fucking MC ever. I mean jesus christ she was adorable.

I actually liked some of the darker aspects of it, I hate that in most quests it's just, "I win story time."

>>45789241
“Well, carry it back obviously.” You say proudly sticking out your chest in triumph. You killed it after all, carrying it back will be no problem what so ever. You flap your way over to the corpse, you think it’s a bit funny, back on Earth you were bothered to even kill a spider on your window sill, but now, hunting for your own food, feels natural, right. You sink your talons into the beast’s neck and flap your wings as hard as you can, the body begins to lift off the ground. Or at least its head does, the rest of the body stays pretty grounded.

“Come on Sis, help me lift.” You bemoan to your twin as she stands off to the side.
“Alright Mii, but I think you’re trying a little too hard this time and its not gonna work.” Mai says as she flaps her way over and wraps her talons around the Razor Deer’s hind legs. She too begins flapping with all her might and the two of you think you might just get it off the ground. And you do!

-----
Thump… Thump… goes the corpse as it bumps into two more stones.
“ Sis… we’re… getting nowhere…” Your sister manages to get out between breaths.
“N-no, see we started… way back there…” You pant back.
This was a terrible idea, even though the two of you were able to lift the deer for a moment you both became rapidly exhausted by its weight. Now you are barely able to drag it across the ground, and it keeps getting stuck on the underbrush and rocks.
“Maybe we should just go get mom and come back for it?” Mai questions, letting her side go slack as she goes to take a rest.
Unable to keep it up on your own you too let the corpse drop down with a Thud.

1/2

>>45789995
“No, she said to come back with our kill and we are.”
“She said to come back with Uni-bunnies Mii.”
“Well we got something better than a Uni-bunny, Mai”
“We got lucky Mii, what if the leader had turned around, or we weren’t strong enough to take this down in one blow?”
“It was Skill and tactics.”
“It was luck.”
“Skill!”
“Luck!”
The two of you squabble for a little bit only to be interrupted by a noise, a low guttural growl coming from a nearby bush, and two hungry looking optic orbs flash in the light…

Yea it was grimdark and he was a awful QM.

That is the nature of choice in quests, sometimes they diverge from any sort of planning.

RE: setting is never happy cute at the start. Have you forgotten how much shit Lyra went through even being a powerhouse as she is? Or Katie the snek? Or Sunniva the lizard? All of them have had to deal with monstrous things and suffering.

Now it's trouble and (potential) danger. We've already deviated enough from the plan; we'll get chewed out if we don't call her, assuming we don't get chewed up for biting off more than we can chew.

Why the fuck are you guys bitching the fuck out and calling mom?

>>45790089

Because she said to call if trouble and this is fucking trouble?

We're brave and stronk, not stupid.

>>45790016
>Be prepared to defend your kill.

>>45790089
We're exhausted and this thing is most likely a predator.

>>45790016
>Fly for it!
>Be prepared to defend your kill.
Defend from the air, like a good harpy.

>>45790089
Just in case it's something big and while we're defending snags and starts to run off with our kill.

We're tired, we've been dragging a body, and we used energy to take it down in the first place.

>>45790077

Time to puff up and make noise to scare it off and alert mom.

>>45790016
>Be prepared to defend your kill.

>>45790121
Actually our character seems to be more American/Western while Mai seems to be more Russian.

Look at the luck vs skill argument.

The "Tactics and skill" sounds much more western.

Right place right time is much more Russian.

>inb4 he ends it here

>>45790089
There is a difference between bravery and stupidity. Trying to fight off what is most likely a decently sized predator after we've exhausted ourselves trying to carry the deer is firmly the latter.

>>45790039
>implying he went through with it

He DID go through with it. We got separated from Djanna for ~10 threads and nearly killed/got killed by her when we found her again, and we managed to give Emma PTSD in the meantime.

Lotus advertised Cutebold and got pissy when people complained that he tried to make it Watership Down.

>>45790017
>you fight a boss you can't even win against
Maybe don't go into every fight thinking you'll win it easily.

>then selling you off as slaves
Didn't actually happen.

>even if you get out i'm going to railroad you into getting seperated off in some random place with nothing
Lotus' one mistake: revealing plans to anon and expecting them to be mature about something bad happening beyond their control instead of being babies about it.

>and thinking that you're friends are dead lololol
Nobody worth acknowledging actually thought that.

>>45790177

WRITING.

>>45790155
You know me too well anon.

>>45790089
Because we want to be good daughters! And we're the big sister, so it wouldn't be right to end up putting Mai into unreasonable danger because of our pride.

Also, it'll let Mom show off some, and we might learn some things from watching her take care of business.

He's still a shitty QM.
>>45790212
No! BAD LOTUS! Don't make me get the spray gun!

Who else is seeing Mom carrying our kill back, while we both ride on it tired

>>45790177
To be fair, everything in your statement after "we got separated from Djanna" was completely the fault of anons being...well, I'd call them as dumb as a stump, but that's an insult to stumps.

And anons got far pissier, far faster than Lotus.

>>45790226
That's not Lotus.. It's Burning sigil. They have totally different writing styles.

Lotus wasn't a shit QM he'd joke about stuff and Anons would start panicking because apparently you can't take things any way other than literally.

Bad things did infact happen but what's the point if everything is always hunky dory? Why are you playing?

>>45790226
Fuck meant bad Sigil.

>>45790226
If you can't take bad shit happening, you should probably leave now, because Sigil already confirmed that good feels and cute harpy kid antics are on a time limit.

>>45790258
>Bad things did infact happen but what's the point if everything is always hunky dory? Why are you playing?
He made bad things practically always happen, Plus he ADVERTISED it AS cutebold doing cute stuff quest before going grimderp with nazimom and it all went downhill from there.

>>45790287
It was a cutebold doing cute stuff. There just happened to be darker fantasy elements.

It seems like you wanted the dungeon to be... A SPOOKY SKELETON! AH BUT WE KILLED IT FREE BONES! QUEST DAY OVER YOU HAD BONES YAAAAY!

What's the point?

We had left on a fantasy adventure to explore. We met monsters and friends and were leveling up.

>>45790287
I can recall exactly one instance where it was genuinely something he made happen instead of a result of anons being dumb or dice being bad, and that was the ship crashing.

>>45790319
Yes, When the dice rolled bad he made it horrible though, As in very fucking horrible.

>>45790319
>>45790316
>>45790287
Is this really the time and place to be discussing this?

>>45790287
>The idea changed from it's earliest formative stages! That means I'm right!

>>45790334
>I-I don't want consequences, even when we fail!

>>45790335
Good point, Shutting up now, Apologiest o Sigil.

>>45790335
It's 4chan so yes.

The guys mad bad rolls had consequences and that a plot developed beyond be cute and run around in circles.

>>45790334
Anon, Lotus isn't a shit QM. You're just a shit player.

>>45790334
Are you even fucking serious? I'm starting to think the first reply was right. You're bait.

>>45790335
>>45790355
Awww, but I love me a good Salt Storm. It keeps me entertained while I write and lets me know my player base is alive and kicking.

>>45790357
Way to be the bigger person anon.

>>45790379
Also seriously please don't end here, It's not even saging yet.

>>45790383
I'm an American, I'm always the bigger person.

>>45790335
There's literally no reason not to discuss it.

>>45790279

He confirmed that in thread 2 or 3. Just like REQM did, and just like Lotus confirmed Cutebold.

As the Lotus-eaters are fond of spewing, "QM PLANS CAN CHANGE STOP COMPLAINING SALT SALT SALT!"

Plus if it does go darker we can be sure it'll be handled damn better than "Awesome, you got a blessing! Suddenly Nazimom."

>>45790400
He's a student. He runs while he can and then goes to bed so he can wake up work/study.

He's never been one to run long threads.

>>45790412
Pretty sure he confirmed it again two or three threads ago, and if by "handled well" you mean "never makes me feel unsafe or discomforted" then I really hope it isn't.

>>45790379
I would be, but my cat is hogging my lap, so kicks are prohibited.

And now I'm imagine SamMii making friends with someone who has a pet cat, with which SamMii squares off with whenever she visits.

>>45790449
I hope he doesn't go grimderp and instead heads in a direction like spider, Also we still have quite a few threads of childhood left.

>>45790485
Spider is boring.

>>45790485
I hope he goes as far away from spider as possible.

>>45790494
To you maybe.

>>45790478
>Squares off with
>And loses
H-help! The cat has mii! (Small tabby cat attached to bird wing)

>>45790485
Spider has no point. It's literally just, "I'm super powerful and I wonder around and eat bears."

What's the plot? I mean hell half the anons in that wanted to make dresses for the rest of the quest. A few conflcits have happened which were fun... but Lyra doesn't have a goal.

It's been hinted/joked at becoming the new monarch of the forest but anons fidget and scream no whenever that comes up.

>>45790485
I'd rather have spider be spider than try to make harpy be spider as well. Mainly because spider stopped being fun at like thread 30.

>>45790517
To anyone that wants an actual story, too.

>>45790485
Spider was supposed to be much darker, but anons picked the most powerful start and had unbelievable luck for the most part. Also spider has gotten samey as fuck. No challenge. It's nice enough, but the slot has a lot less pull.

together we're gonna run around, Mai, we're gonna... do all kinds of wonderful things, Mai. Just you and me, Mai. It's just Mii and Mai. Mii and Mai and their adventures, Mai.. MII AND MAI FOREVER AND FOREVER A HUNDRED YEARS Mii and Mai..

>>45790522
Explains why the guy that doesn't want anything but cutesy bullshit likes it

>>45790556

Where's the quote and link to it, I won't believe you otherwise.

>>45790565
Please go.

>>45790565
I think you need to lay off the caffeine.

>>45790522

>Lyra doesn't have a goal

Lyra doesn't have A goal. That's actually kind of a character trait; she wants to explore the world she's been reborn into, without an overarching obligation or pressure that grinds down her sense of wonder at the fantastical things around her. We have some small guiding points (visit Elflands & give grandma a heart attack, beat all the dungeons, eat all the bears) but I don't think we NEED a major overarching story getting in the way.

It's like the Elder Scrolls series, RPG sandbox. The fun isn't in reaching the end, it's in seeing everywhere you can go and all the things you can do.

>>45790698
And not everyone has fun with what is essentially a text adventure sandbox game as played by a schizophrenic man.

>>45790719
You may not like it, But it still has people following it and they like do.

>>45790619
>Linking back to a months old thread
kek no
If you want you can dig through it, I don't feel the need. All I have to do is point out how early writing themes differ VASTLY from the more recent ones.

>>45790749
Good for them. They can stay there instead of trying to turn other quests into the same dreck.

>>45790698
>Explore!

We really haven't seen anything and it's taken however many threads to just get outside of the initial forest. Hell anons voted to take the slow route out of the forest.

There isn't anything really happening. It's dull.

Sure you can mention skyrim but it's missing side quests and main quests.

The dungeons so far have been pointless.

>>45790749
No one said they didn't. Most of the people here are saying that they're hoping this quest isn't, "explore! look nothing! Oh wow a new dungeon! Weasels Oh mah god!!" We're hoping for an actual plot and consequences for actions or bad rolls.

I'm hoping for a plot. Not minecraft.

Spider is extremely dull.

>>45790016
Your eyes open wide, and you begin twittering madly, what did Mom use? Was it a short murmering twirl? A heightened chirp? You try a few while Mai lets out a long echoing twitter that seems to stretch out over the hills. The creature before you in the bushes winces at the racket before approaching through the thicket. Its body is squat, and it looks like some kind of badger but its coloration is a raging vibrant red and it has saber toothed fangs. Its low guttural growl continues as it approaches, head down towards the ground as it get closer to you, your twin, and your kill. Its clear enough what this being wants, your soft succulent flesh between its jaws no doubt. In the past you could say ‘Don’t eat me Mr.Badger, I’m high in fat, I won’t taste good.’ But now… well now you probably taste like delicious chicken.

Even so, you let go of the corpse and take to the air, your sister following with you and you circle round the beast and your kill, you worked hard for this and there is no way you are letting some no good scavenger take it from you. Talons at the ready you…

And that’s when the badger’s back exploded into flames, its mouth filled with fire, and it looked up at you and Mai with fury in its eyes.

Shit.
