There's another world underneath this one. A world of demons and petty gods.

I died once. Turns out a bloke like me doesn't have much to look forward to.

But I cut a deal. That's what I do best.

I got to come back topside. Now I hunt the demons that escape Hell and send them back.

My name is Bill Zeebub...

"Out of my way!"

Looks like this is the place.

I can feel a faint wrongness in the universe that spikes with every hard footfall. I could play it safe and take the back door...

...but if I'm facing what I think I am, the laws of magic say I need to use the main entrance like a respectable customer.

I got started a lot later than I wanted to tonight so I should probably stop here, but I might be snowed in for the next couple of days so I will be running this all the way through Monday. Now that I have some vague idea where things can go, I can put some more stuff together in the morning. Hope everybody's having a good time so far!

If you're new to Lego Quest, there's a wiki with a whole lot of useless trivia on it:

We're inching towards our seventh year of baseplate-based disorder, and most of the last sixish years' worth of stuff is archived on suptg, along with all the images:
http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive.html?tags=lego%20quest

A new set made a cameo at the beginning of this episode - I got the Corner Deli in the mail as a Christmas present this morning and put it together this afternoon. It takes up a nice chunk of scenery in its folded-out form, so I figured it would be a nice addition to the street scene.

"Nancy. Lovely to see you."

Nancy. Nansitira. A demon of some pretty unsavory visceral pleasures. Something like a succubus.

Now I know you're probably chomping at the bit thinking of all the lascivious behaviour that I could get up to with her, but keep in mind that I said like a succubus. Specifically, she's what you would call a harridan. Those visceral pleasures are dredged from your mind and guaranteed to be the things you enjoy the least. Hence her current appearance.

It wasn't a pleasant breakup.

"The powers-that-be aren't happy with what your friend Tommy is up to."

"Tommy? What's he done that's any concern of you and yours?"

Nancy is a demon, true, but unlike that poor asshole I tussled with at Manzini's, she's allowed to be here.

"He's been meddling with things beyond his ability to handle. He must have picked it up from you."

"Tommy doesn't know enough to summon a cab, much less whatever you think he did. Now where is he?"

"Why should I tell you? As I recall the last time we saw each other you left me inside a bottle. That wasn't very nice of you, Bill-"

Thanks everybody! I know this one is a little wordswordwords but I like to try new things so I really appreciate everyone sticking around. Normally I spend the week beforehand making a bunch of minifigs to use as drop-in characters but this was a spur-of-the-moment idea I had on Friday night so the only things I built ahead of time were Bill and the restaurant scene.

I'm going to get started putting together the stuff for today's run now, so hopefully we should be ready to go in about 90 minutes.

Something about transformation magic that they don't tell you in the movies.

If you stay in one form for more than a few minutes, you start to forget who you are. The first thing you forget is how to change back.

Drum and Razor will still be looking for Belinda.

But something tells me that I'm going to bloody well have to spring Tommy ahead of schedule and find out exactly what he did. Whatever he's gotten into, seems I'm a part of it like it or not.

That's it for this episode! A very big thanks to everybody for playing this game with me! I really love running Lego Quest and plan to keep doing it as long as I can!

Plenty of Easter eggs in this episode, starting with this backdrop. Longtime players might recognize it as a palette-swapped version of the night skyline that I've used in several of Red's adventures. I actually made it for a different game, but this is the first time it's appeared on camera. I've had the building cutout sitting around in my misc. drawer for almost a year, but I glued it to a backdrop this afternoon just for this game. Very happy with how it works for a daytime city backdrop.

At first I had no idea how to make a big bobby hat but these are a close-enough facsimile for me. Last summer I bought a huge box of pieces for $20 that included a ton of rare parts, but also a single one of the tall hats with a gold emblem on it, which I thought really worked to tie the whole look of the police force together.

My radiator build makes a return appearance. The orange couch was made for a picture I took for /toy/ a few months ago, but since all my other curved bricks are currently in use and I wanted a couch, it was either that or the REALLY ugly one.

The two minifigs on the couch also made an appearance, but it's OK since you only have to be 18 to drink in Britain in the early-mid 1990s.

The glow of the fire is not a shop (the piece is actually glowing thanks to UV light), but the image technically is shopped, because I use Photoshop to edit out the blue glow that the UV bulbs produce while keeping the blue of Bill's tie. This is a refinement of the technique that I first started using in Deep Shaft 8 and Cleft 18.

Here's a guide I made for the Lego General on /toy/ about how to use UV light with Lego elements.

Nancy's first visage in this game is a combination of Lavaria from Nexo Knights, the headdress from Luminara Unduli of Star Wars, and the torso of the Penguin Kid CMF.

It was pretty tricky, but I got a really nice tripod for Christmas that I've been using throughout this game, so that helped. There are two Technic rods attached to Mixel joints anchored to the roof rail greebing, and to the railing on the second-story balcony. Each rod has a couple of birds stuck to it with sticky-tack. The other birds are stuck directly to Bill. I used the same technique for this shot >>1002708

This was the culmination of a series of pictures I took in November

Every year I like to make a Christmas-themed moc within the Space theme, so this year it was a holiday party for the Space Police. Anons liked it so I kept going until it had a tagline.

Normally when you hit 150 the counter at the bottom turns italicized and says (Image limit reached) when you hover over it.

Since this thread is in autosage and we're nowhere near the limit (I guess?) I can post some more about the stuff in this game.

As someone on /toy/ already realized, I made Bill's torso by removing part of the print from one of these City Boat torsos, because Lego doesn't make a plain white collared shirt with tie. The closest thing they make is the cartoony one that Hans Moleman in the Simpsons CMF line has.
