Hello there inferior Bonesaw, how are you doing today.
>Go Peacefully.

>>883051
I have no idea who Bonesaw even is. But I'm doing well.

>>883029
>>Go peacefully

>>883029
>Go peacefully

You scowl and reply
"Well it's not like I have any real choice now do I?"

She giggles "No, you really dont. Please follow me."

You fall in line behind her heading down a long grey featureless metal tube of sorts before deciding to take her up on her offer to answer questions.

"I need to know something before we continue, this question is the most important to me. What have you done to my friends and family?" You ask grimly

The Doctor looks at you confused before giving you her sparkling smile.
"Your parents are still in their home in Georgia, perfectly safe. You also only recently came to the city so, friends are in short supply for you."

You look at her stunned, obviously who ever abducted you did their homework and did it well.

"Well that's good..don't know what I would have done had you burt my parents, guards or no guards." You say as menacingly as you can

The Doctor rolls her eyes as you looks at you over her shoulder.
"Yes, I'm sure you're quite the dangerous specimen. Are you going to ask me more questions or keeo trying to frighten me?"

You sigh and proceed to ask her a few more questions:
"Obviously I'd like to know where I am, What you did to me, Who you're even working for and what we will be doing when we get to this 'lab' you are taking me too."

She doesn't even look over her shoulder to address you anymore as she spits out answers as fast as you asked the questions.
"Our facility, We unlocked your true potential, That's classified and we will find out just how extraordinary you are or are not.
Those are your answers respective to your questions asked."

As you reach the end of the hallway she places her hand on a piece of metal a shade lighter than the surrounding metal, a light orange outline forms around her hand and the round bulkhead door opens revealing the lab.

(Cont)

Multiple rooms built into the walls of the massive room show testing equipment through large windows, things as complex as a large hive of computers all rigged to a single chair with many tools hanging above it to as simple as a room with a set of increasingly large metal boxes inhabit the spaces.

Dr. Myers turns to you and gestures at the room.
"Welcome to our testing zone, we will use this space to hopefully realize the potential in your metagenetic structure, please do not disturb any of the doctors or other subjects performing their tests."

You look over her shoulder and see around 6 groups consisting of 3 people each a subject, a doctor, and a guard.
They don't look too extraordinary until you notice one man is being assaulted by multiple guards with baseball bats and he's taking the beating standing, like it's nothing. Guards slam the solid instruments into his head and backs of his legs while he doesn't budge an inch. Then you realize, the bats are never even touching him they stop as if being repelled.

You feel a massive hand on your shoulder as Luther pulls you back and turns you to face the Doctor.
"Now isn't the time to worry about them. You need to focus on activating your own potential, we have many tests in this room. Choose any you'd like and let's see how you do."

You look out at the rooms and decide you'd probably do best with the room containing..

>>The Pillars

"Take me to those pillars." You say, pointing

The Doctor smiles and leads you to the room using her handprint to open the door and gesturing for you to enter alone.

You step into the room and look at the pillars. They appear to be constructed of Marble the smallest being 4ft up until they become 10ft tall when it goes above that they and the tallest is closer to 30ft is made of steel.

You aren't given any instruction, Dr. Myers just looks at you expectantly.

>Touch the Marble Pillar
>Touch the Steel Pillar
>Try to jump on a pillar (between 4-30ft specify)

All rolls require a d20 roll. Whatever option gets the most support I'll take the highest roll for it.

>Very Good Result

You walk up to a marble pillar and place your hands on it, it's cool and smooth.

Your arms become cold, they feel rigid and they are steadily becoming paler. Soon they begin changing all together, your arms up to your elbows have become marble.

You stare in awe at your new limbs and flex your fingers slowly, the sound of stone grinding on stone is light and you don't feel it.

"Amazing, your Metagenome has given all your cells the ability of the stem cell but a mutated form of it that allows the replication of more than just organic materials." Dr. Myers states jotting notes on her clipboard

You look back at your hands and they are slowly becoming flesh again.

[POWER GAINED: Assimilation]

The door hisses as it opens and you step outside.
"While it's not unnatural for subjects to have more than one ability, don't expect yourself to have another."
She motions to the rooms once more, a few of them are occupied now however.

Hello, Lurkers.
The chair it is.
Writing.

"I'll try out that chair." You say

The stunned look on Dr. Myers face tells you it isn't a popular choice.

"I..uh..I mean..if you want." She says

She opens the chamber door and immediately you're assaulted by the heavy scent of copper in the air, it doesn't take long to find the source as you rest your eyes on the bloodstained leather chair. A man stands behind the computer bank entering information that you see correlates to you.

"Take your seat." The man says his voice like the baritone rumble of thunder.

You sit in the seat and your legs are locked in place by an invisible force you can't fight against, your arms and neck recieve the same treatment. The man slowly walks over to you and pulls the chandelier of instruments down to his chest and a click locks it at that height.

"We are going to see how durable you are or if your metagenes allow you regenerative properties. If they don't, this will be extremely painful, if they do it may still be extremely painful." His face tightens into a frown of concentration as he picks up a sharp filet knife.

>Minor success
You breathe heavily as the man gets closer with the blade. He lays it on top of your hand angled downwards, you close your eyes and hold your breath. Then the bright pain takes over you look at your hand and in one swipe nearly half of the back of your hand has been flayed.

You begin to feel light headed but then the wound tingles and you see the thin lost layer of muscles begin to grow back, the skin and muscle slowly snaking across the raw wound to finally heal itself.

The man gets next to the wound and staring intently and clicking his stopwatch, the computer beeps with your heartbeat and you realize this chair is monitoring all your vitals without anything being plugged to you.

After about 20 minutes the wound is a sore pink patch of new skin, the man stands and heads back to his computer before clacking on the keyboard and suddenly you are realized from the invisible grasp.

"He has a healing factor, dont expect him to survive having his head blown off like Sestak or Newt but he can recover from most common injuries at near triple the speed." He says mildly

[ABILITY GAINED: Mild Regeneration]

Luther removed you from the room and you're taken back into the main room in front of the Doctor.

"So..we have Assimilation and Mild Regenerative ability. With that regeneration comes what appears to be an increase in adrenaline output and superhuman endurance according to the muscle strain during the event according to our readings. Quite the interesting case you are, allow me to put things bluntly to you now. You have two options, we can cut you loose now and let you go around this city using those powers for whatever your little heart desires, or you become one of our agents and who knows maybe you get answers one day. How's that sound honey?" The Doctor leans forward her lips pursed and her eyes gleaming.

>>883474
>>Why would I work with you?

>>883474
>Why would you just let me go?
>Why would I work with you?

"After all these tests you think I'd work for you? If I didn't help you'd let me go? This makes no sense." You say completely baffled

"Oh Honey, let me break down the basics for you. We are known as Phantech, a corporation that deals in the sciences and technologies that the public believes to be the realm of science fiction. A few years ago we discovered the MetaHuman Genome in the DNA structure of special people. Like yourself." She places her hand on your knee and rubs it like you're a small child, you feel a little safer.

"That doesn't explain why you would let me go or ask me to work for you." You say again, the spring green eyes of the Doctor are quite entrancing.

"We let you go into the city and go buck wild with your powers because it advances our goals. It makes the populace fear Metas but then we send another Meta to stop you and it makes them reliant, we create a new market for the superhuman PMC. Soldiers provided by Phantech of course, but if you join us we can help you hone your abilities and give you a little direction in life. I actually find you quite attractive, first time I've been fond of a subject especially one so cooperative. I remember when I was a subject it was so nice to go along with everything I actually liked it. You like being cooperative too don't you?" She coos

You watch her ruby lips and find yourself speaking before thinking.

"Yes, I do enjoy cooperating." You say

"You do want to stay and work with us dont you?" She says as she caresses your face

>Yes, I do
>Yes, I do
>Yes, I do
>No..I want to leave.

That would be playing right into their hands though. They let metas loose so they can become villains then send their corporate owned "Heroes" after them.

Let's be heroes, but no fake corporate heroes. Real goddamn heroes.

>>883547

>>883554

We'll fight for justice, not fame and fortune

>>883554
And a real human bean as well.

>>883554
We need to be clever about it. No doubt Phantech will try to have us covertly killed, or frame us for some crime for which they can then attack us.

So does that Nat 20 net us an additional powerset?

You shake your head slightly and suddenly it's as if the world comes back into focus. You look at the Doctor and feel only a deep disgust.
[ABILITY GAINED: Pheromone Resistance]

"I had a life before this you mind controlling bitch, I want it back." You say growing angry

The Doctor looks taken aback and you see a brief flash of anger before her calm smug face returns.

"I see you're also strong mentally, you really are the specimen. You also may have had a life but now you're a part of PhanTech's life. Trying to leave the city will result in termination." She smiles as she says this.

Dr. Myers digs in her pocket and withdraws a small radio.

"We have a bird leaving the nest, open her up." She says before turning to Luther.

"He's going to be leaving, give him a midnight walk out." She says before strutting off

You look at Luther and go to speak, just as the sucker ounch connects and you lose consciousness.

>>883554
>>883567
>>883571
I dont give a fuck about any of that bros.
The only reason i didn't vote to join corporate X-men is because the bitch tried to mind control us and i don't play that shit.
Besides being a hero is lame 85% of the time.
We can just give a 25% cut to the community if you wanna do something positive. Or we can be a anti hero.
Basiclly i just wanna fight fuckers and not be tied down by the consiquences of my actions. Being a kindhearted Villain is the best way to do that, Anti Hero is the other.

You wake up with a foul smell invading your nose and something moist and mushy against the small of your back.

They chucked you in a dumpster, maybe you hurt her feelings a bit.

You are no longer in only your boxers but now are wearing a full set of clothes, the same ones you were kidnapped while wearing. Simple grey shoes, dark jeans and an off white t-shirt.

You pull yourself out of the dumpster and stand in the alleyway looking around, you're definitely in the city.

You pull your wallet out and see a small white card protruding from it.

Call me when you're ready to get back together. -Roxxie
It reads

You sigh and pocket the card before opening your wallet to make sure they didn't alter anything.

>Name

You can remain nameless if you'd like or wait until you get your hero name.

Physical Materials is still good, definately. Just means we need to find this universe's equivilant to Uru/Adamantium/Nth Metal and have it implanted somewhere under our skin.

I'd still love to eventually work our way up to "Don't you remember, my power is assimilation. SO I ASSIMILATED GRAVITY!"

I'll support this for our name

>>883608
>Name
we're a guy right? how about Chris

>>883609
Copying physical materials does not necessarily give us super strength, only super durability.

Of course, as all our cells have 'the ability of the stem cell', they can replicate indefinitely, and we can produce unlimited amounts of valuable metals, fissile isotopes and/or toxic substances.

The question of whether we are immune the harmful effects of our own body is in the air, as is the question of what happens when we turn entirely into something that isn't solid.

Going to take a brief break for some food and drink.

But I'd like to hear what you guys like or think should be improved in this quest, I love feedback.

Why would we become thugs? We can be a hero for hire!

>>883654
well since our power comes from absorbing things to make us tougher I think one of the first things we should do is get ourselves some titanium rings so we can always have a steal fist ready to punch someone in the face.

>>883654

>>883665
I like Alexander Louis Armstrong. Viting for that one.

Powers cool, Im hoping we can merge with shit like trees or concrete and just surf through it as a lump and jump out and back into the same material.

>>883665
Seeing as Alexander Armstrong is already a character I don't really dig using the name. If it was overwhelming majority I'd feel more obligated but it's hard to get past that it's just a rip off.

>>883663
Agreed. Let's see if we can get others to join us and we become heroes for hire.

>>883685
This isn't a good way to start a quest, OP. You'll just drive players away if you act like a tin pot dictator.

And players pull "muh votes" because that's how you've run this quest so far. Being a dick and threatening to take away player agency does nothing to help you.

This is why you don't do name votes, OP

You continue looking through your wallet and see your license.

Glad to see they didn't mess with that, you continue searching and pull out the money you had left in your wallet: 250$

As you put the money back you hear the rustling of newspapers and scuffling feet. You look up an see a ragged man walking towards you, his pale taut skin is raw from scratching. An addict for sure.

"Hey man, give me the fucking money." He says as he pulls a hypodermic needle from his waistband and aims the point at you.
You step back and the man continues speaking as he stumbles towards you.

"You dont wanna get stuck with this man, I got the bug. Just give me your cash. Now."

>>883882
Yes.

You need to go home, this is all too much. After making sure your arms were stone free you make your way to the main street and flag down a taxi so you can go home.

You had only moved to the city a couple weeks ago, the rent at this apartment was cheap and it kept you close to your job delivering take-out to anyone to old or lazy to get it themselves.
Needless to say, cheap rent came at the expense of a nice neighborhood.

You notice your moped is missing from downstairs where you had last left it chained. You make your way up and open the door to your apartment on the 3rd floor, you get a beer from your fridge and go collapse on the couch.

However we go about using our powers at least we know what the first thing we are doing is.
Getting our moped back!

>>883921
Our moped is already sold by parts or at least repainted and with a new license number.

>>883903

Everything is at one vote. Need somebody to second something, first thing agreed on gets written.

>>883942

Moped quest veto'd at least for now.

You decide it's time you experiment with your powers, you knowso far anything solid you can absorb into your arms. You wonder about matter in other states and how that would work.

>>Try to Assimilate Fire

We need to try and get assimilative memory so we can remember certain materials and copy them without touching them. Also mixing and matching.

You gather a few unimportant papers and stuff them into a bowl, you take it out on the patio and use your lighter to set the trash ablaze. After a minute the fire dwindles down and black curls of smoke float towards the sky, you put your hands above it and feel the smoke tickle your palms. You close your eyes and let your control go and allow your body to do whatever it choses.

A few seconds go by and your arms feel light as feathers, when you open your eyes you see your forearms and hands are now small clouds of wispy smoke. Your hands don't retain their shape they are more like smokey tentacles, you wriggle your fingers and small ripples go across the smoke cloud.

You think of how you could use this in a fight, what do you try and do?

You pull your arms close like you are going to hug yourself, you feel the light trailing of smoke swirling around you.

Somehow you can see through it fine everything is just a little darker, you can tell by the reflection in the glass door you look like a large walking mass of smoke. At night this could be used for concealment or even to intimidate anyone wanting to fight.

You throw your arms down to the side and jets of smoke hit the ground and fade away. You smile like an idiot while looking at the last remnants of smoke whirl from your fingertips when you hear a man screaming and see a head coming from the patio above.

"It's tax season old man, where's your dough." You hear a man with a voice like he has a stuffed nose ask

"Christ. Please just stop, it's in my suitcase in the bathroom under the sink, please pull me back please." The man begs, you see his eyes are wide with terror, he doesnt even seem to register you.

His head disappears and you hear the men upstairs go through his room. After some muffled conversation you hear the door slam and steps coming down to your door followed by heavy knocking.

>Answer the door

>"Fuck Off"

Don't want to reveal our secret identity. Give him all of our monies (20$?) THEN jump off of the balcony, assimilate the guard rail, call ourselves Weld and mug the fucker.

You grab the rail and turn your right arm to solid rusted iron. You head inside yelling out to the door

"Just got out of the shower, one minute." You grab a towel and cover your iron arm before heading to the door.

You open it slowly before it's pushed slightly by a young man backed by two punk friends.

The young man has a buzzcut and denim vest, he wears sunglasses and a predator's grin.

"So sorry sir, but me and my compatriots here are with the Eastview Apartment Restoration Project. We've noticed this building is becoming more dangerous by the day, but we think for a low fee of 100$ we can make it a littlte safer. For you." He smiles and his teeth have a light yellow tint

His tall friend with a short green mohawk reaches into his coat and withdraws a switchblade.
"I'm sure you can spare the cash Mister, after all it is an investment into your safety." As he finishes speaking the blade extends with a small click.

The fatter of the three thugs simply looks at you and nods before pulling out his phone and beginning to text.

"I'm already safe enough thanks." You say as you grab the leader by the face and push him aside leading with a brutal haymaker from your iron fist.

The chunk of living metal slams into the side of the tall punk's mouth and you feel his cheekbone crumble like you've crushed a handful of cereal. He hits the floor already unconscious.
The two other thugs look at your arm in horror and pull their own weapons, the leader pulls a knife of his own and the fat punk pulls..oh fuck a gun. A shoddy looking revolver, it can still put a hole in your head and you wont heal from that.

You lunge at chubs using your Iron Arm to slap the knife aside as it scrapes off your metallic arm, a shot rings off and a chunk of your door is blown off you wrap your iron hand around Chubs and the gun handle and squeeze.

The bones in his hand snap like small wet twigs and he screams before your regular fist smashes into his nose breaking it. You bring his head to your knee and drop his limp body.

You turn to the leader who only just reclaimed his knife, his hands shake badly and he drops it again, his glasses are askew and his voice trembles.

"Stay back man. I'm not fucking kidding, you stay the fuck back."

This because stealing is bad and we need to make an example of him in a totally not super villain way.

You pull the scrawny leader up by his vest and put your cold metal hand around his throat.

"Everyone in this building you took money from today. You're giving it back to them and I'm going to follow you to make sure you do it. Then you can drag your buddies to a hospital. Sound fair?" You ask tightening your grip

"Sure man whatever, let me go. Fuck!" He chokes out while squirming.

You drop him and shove him towards the stairs.

"Let's start with the nice old man upstairs." You say


After you return everyone their money and an ambulance gets called for his friends who "fell down the stairs" you take another seat on your couch when your cellphone rings in your coffee table drawer.
Strange you swear it was on you when you were abducted.

You answer.

"Hello sweetie." A familiar female voice purrs

"Doctor." You say sullenly

"Oh lighten up dear, I got word of how you handled those punk kids who shook down your building. Must have felt good stopping evil, knowing you had the power over the once powerful. That's one hell of a drug isn't it?" She asks lightly

"Not buying what your selling doc, so unless you got something else to say, we're done here. You blew your chance when you tried to mindrape me into doing your bidding." You say angrily

You hear her scoff
"Oh Please darling, still clinging onto that. A girl has a little crush and she gets crucified for it, well while those punks weren't mine I'm glad they showed up and got you ready.

You sigh
"Ready for what exactly, Doc?"

She giggles and you hear a high pitched whining
"For the show silly. For the show."

"What the f-" you are cut off by a distant explosion

"That's your cue hero. The next bomb is at Saint Joseph's Academy on the outskirts of the city, you have about 5 hours give or take, the code to disarm the bomb is 8962. Please put on a good show, Upper Management is watching." She giggles again before the line goes dead.

You have: [ 5 ] Hours

That's today's thread.

I'll be around to answer any questions and have chats with all of you guys. There will be a new thread tomorrow.

>>884634

Thanks for running man, I am liking it so far

What exactly is stopping us from going to the cops with this information?

>>884662
Random guy says corporation nobody has ever heard of is producing super powered soldiers because of an evil plot to dominate the security world.
PhanTech has some police on the take as well.

It wouldn't workout unless you had very hard proof.

>>884618
>Call in a bomb threat at Saint Joseph's Academy, from a payphone.

>>884634
I am disappointed that you don't know who bonesaw is so I am going to keep referencing that work.

>>884662
I'd imagine they would just detonate the bomb immediately if we made any moves to do that.

>>884634
Good thread, a couple things I want to ask about.

First, is there an upper limit for how long we can stay in an assimilated state?

Will it ever be possible to have multiple materials assimilated at once?

Finally, did you ever read or hear about the old metahuman quest, metahuman renaissance on /tg/ years ago?

>>884680
Link me bud, I love reading anyone's work.


General statement as well I'm looking for a drawfag to make a PhanTech logo. And also of someone could Archive this thread I'd greatly appreciate it.

>>884691
There is no limit you know of, but you are fucking with your cells so it isn't recommended you hold it longer than needed.

You could definitely make one arm metal another smoke or something like that.

And no. I am relatively new to Quests as a concept even and don't know the history.

>>884698
Oh yeah, I forgot to ask, can we "remember" materials that we've assimilated before, or is that something that would have to be further developed?

>>884713
You'd have to practice that and use that material damn near excessive amounts in order for your cells to be able to form it on their own.

We really need to start carrying a steel washer or something similar around for easy assimilation.

>>884749
Perhaps a keyring of different material samples? At the very least a knife or multi-tool would be good to have.

>>884749
You may find such a small amount of the material may lead to less quality results as your cells have to compensate for the lack of material.

There are also plenty of allies you can make in this city. Other Metas especially, some people might even have the means to hekp boost your abilities or even give you new ones. PhanTech aren't the only players in this city, just the ones you got abducted by.

>>884784
If we were to stay in say rock form for to long, would we become stuck in the transformation?

>>884806
It's completely possible, yes.

>>884784
Would continued practice using those materials be enough to offset the lowered quality? Not enough to do it with no reference, but enough that it isn't a completely foreign practice?
