Cool lets rock.

The first night of the Great Grail War has come and passed. Rictor, realizing he wants something more deadly for himself finished calling his old friend, Vladimir of Russia.

Off to the corner of his eye, Rictor could see a puff of banana colored hair finishing her gallon of ice-cream. His Servant, Ibaraki, looked at him with a tempered look with a smug of ice-cream on her face, "Its about time you got off the phone. I am bored, and a bored Oni is something you don't want to have Rictor!"

Rictor only gave her a smile, "I have just gotten off the phone with a good friend. I thought we needed something more, so I'm having him get something from Russia. I needed to head over to pick it up from Bucharest though."

A feral smile crept on the Berserker's face, "Oh, kukuku, you are talking about those human weapons. I wouldn't mind pillaging some of those."

What do you want to bring with you?

>>3121859
I imagine some crows are all we need

>>3121859
I mean....is this a write-in update or are you going to give us a list? Just so we know what we're doing here.

Whether you recognize this trip or not, or who I am, I wanted to drop in and give you some important advice:

First: Link your archive in the OP. You have a pretty solid OP trawl, but it's missing that.
Second: Find a consistent OP image. It's useful for a variety of reasons. Fate/Nasuverse has a lot of handy graphics for this, a common image involves Command Seals.

This all comes with a grain of salt. You and your anons seem to be having fun, I just wanted to help you keep on having fun. If you haven't archived your quest yet, look up "suptg archive" on google, and follow the instructions carefully. We wouldn't want old threads to dissapear on you.

>>3121915
Also, always give prompts with >. No, I don't care about your 'writing style', they are there for reasons such as ending your post, demonstrating the expectations for your player posts, setting the tone, and generally helping smooth player interaction.
Read some other quests. You'll see what I mean.
Aight, EGO out.

>>3121896
>Enter what you want to bring, which is basically puppets.

assume at this point you have stolen a car. I mean, why would you have not yet.

>>3121859
A few of the smaller puppets, the ones we can stuff into the trunk of a car or suitcase.
Oh and our lucky Needle.

>>3121915
Im trying to save the thread but I'm confused. I understand the manual part, though DownThemAll is gone for some reason, but my requests are not going through on the form.

I need a 1d20 roll from you all. This is not for gathering stuff but something else entirely.

So I'm going to rule that as Double 19s, good for yall.

Rictor started to drive down the road, going through the country side. The two were now in transit with 2 Oni-puppets and a couple of Crows. Right now Rictor was kicking for not stock piling on this weapons beforehand, but the magi who raided his last compound didn't think that.

As they were driving, he noticed a small blue truck coming towards them. Being a Dead Apostle, he could see the truck approaching. The truck stank of magic and holiness that even a new Apostle like him could tell.

His eyes could see a Blond girl, no older than 20 riding on the back. The stank as like a Servant, but much more powerful.

He could hear a laughter from his side as Ibaraki was smiling like a demon, "Kuahaha! I can fell it coming. This must be Ruler! Oh she would defiantly quench an Oni's boredom!"

>>3122130
We blow out a tire showhow, crash to a halt, Jeanne rushes over to help us, and she SOMEHOW completely fails to realize she's talking to a dead apostle and a Oni, and thinks their just a normal german man and his adopted daughter.

Rictor and Banana have no idea what to do.

Rictor, trying to keep himself from being seen, tries his best to keep Ibaraki down, who is currently trying her best to jump out the window.

Across the ways, Jeanne was talking to the old man who helped her get this far, "Thank you for driving me, I'm so sorry your truck broke down."

The man simply gave him a jolly laugh, "Haha, I should be apologizing myself Missy. It seems my Ol' Faithful croaked her last breath."

With a look of sorrow for the truck, Jeanne looked down the road. Doing so, she noticed another car coming up, "Well sir, the least I can do is get you some help." She moved to the other side of the road to flag them down.

Rictor was currently fighting with Ibaraki. Even as a Dead Apostle, he was defiantly no match for a Servant.

"Let me go Master, I wanna pillage her!" She screamed, trying her best to break from the dozens of strings Rictor attempted to use.

Not paying attention to the road, BAM!

Rictor and Ibaraki watched with eyes as large as saucers as they watched Ruler sailing through the air like a rag doll.

You see this vehicle was infact something of a working project of Rictors. He knew Magi wouldn't be using vehicles so something like a tough car that could take bullets and magic was perfect for an Apostle on the run. It was Reinforced over an entire week and maybe could have taken a hit from a normal Servant.

They however just hit Ruler going about 70 MPH.

As they watched and realized they hit the strongest Servant in the war, they were currently flying through the air in a barrel roll.

They sailed through the air, rolling across the ground as the vehicle slowly but surely took damage. The puppets from the ride seemed almost brutalized from the rulling, but they are still functionable. Even a few shards of glass stab into Rictor as the windshield goes out.

>Rictor takes 27 damage

As an Apostle, you do not lose your mind for a second. As you end up with your roof on the ground, you look over to see Ibaraki throwing up.

>What do you do?

>Jump out and try to flip the car as fast as possible

>Stay in the car and act like your dead. A normal human would not survive impalement by glass and steel

>Go and help Ruler because hes so fucking dead

Even if we ran, all it takes for us to get fucked is Ruler commanding our servant to show up.

Really gotta stop chucking posts out as fast as they come.

>>3122206
Only if she can lay eyes on Ibaraki, otherwise her Discernment can't work, and she'll think she just got ran over by a normal person...or atleast have no idea who actually hit her.

>>3122211
Huh, I forgot there were limits for the Ruler class.
Then again I never really bothered much with Apocrypha, so shame on me.

Kicking out the door, Rictor runs outside of the vehicle in a panic. Hitting Ruler of all Servants was bad and he needed to make sure Berserker was safe.

He gripped the side of the car, trying his best to lift the car from the ditch they landed in. It barely budged under his monstrous strength through, so he ran to the other side and yoinked Ibaraki from the passenger side.

Ibaraki was covered in vomited ice-cream, looking like she failed to fight a raccoon from the amount of scratches she had. After she finally got up right, she tried to speak, "Oni don't throw up" before another was released.

As Rictor is patting her back in a failing attempt to make her feel better, he looks over to his left side. Laying on the dirt is a moderately sized girl with hair as long as her body and stank of holy might, Ruler.

Getting up in an instant, she looks over at the wreckage without noticing him and runs over. Outside dangling from the car are the puppets he put in the back seat. They look extremely mangled and non-human, but Ruler seems to mistaken them as humans. As she approaches, the car catches on fire.

As Rictor sees the car about to blow, he decides to yell at Ruler as he starts to drag Ibaraki, "THEY ARE PUPPETS, RUN!"

Luckily, she turns her head to Rictor and then to the puppets, taking a step back before bolting from the car. As she runs, she tries to pick up both Rictor and Ibaraki but ends up dragging Ibaraki with Rictor (Rolled a 3).

As they finally make it to the road, a sudden quake shakes the earth. All the magic in the Puppets along with the car seemed to have made a crater in the earth.

Taking a moment to calm himself, Rictor stands up and starts to remove the shrapnel from his body without car (Hes fully healed. Apostle bullshit). Looking over, the old man from the truck seems to be running over as Ruler seems to be taking a moment's breather.

He looks at Ibaraki as she starts getting up from the trench they made with her head.

>>3122534
>>Start loudly complaning about your luck and just introduce yourself to Ruler already. At this point any attempt at stealth is deader then you are, and her sainthood and your undead nature aside, her position shouldn't allow her to casually kill you since you haven't broken any rules of the The War yet.

>>3122534

Rictor looked over the remains of his car, all in peices as the puppets fell from the sky like corpses. "Well fuck. That hasn't happened since my joy ride in WW2" Taking a breather, he looks over at Ibaraki whos just nursing her head from the dragging you and Ruler placed her through.

Speaking of Ruler, he gets himself up and walks over the bane of his existance, reaching out his hand, "It is nice to meet you Ruler, I am Rictor Melston. And us, sorry about hitting you..."

She looks at him with a shining smile of relief, "Thanks for calling out to me, I'm..." Her words start to drag out as she stares at his eyes, which are currently red as blood, "An Apostle..."

Rictor looked at the Ruler, sighing as he scratched his head, "Yes, I am Rictor Melston, Puppeteering Dead Apostle and Master of Berserker." He tried to emphisis his hand to her. There was a chance she would cut him on sight, right now he needed to distract her.

Joan blinked for a few moments before extending her own hand almost mechanically. She adopted a stone face like she was a machine making her lose the last bit of shine from earlier, "I am Joan D'Arc, Ruler class Servant."

After shaking hands, she looks him up and down for a moment, "Hmm, I assume you didn't attempt to kill me as a Master would have known better. You should keep your eyes on the road."

She turns around and starts to walk away from Rictor, Ibaraki finally regaining some of her senses. He notices shes approaching the man, turing him towards a truck thats currently smoking, but not as much as his.

Now that he has lost a vehicle, it is questionable that he can make it to the deal and back without daylight breaking. This would force him to stay in Bucharest for an extra day to stay away from the sun.

Rictor, weighing his options, decides that the nights lost. He gets up and heads to the truck followed by Ibaraki munchin on a piece of puppet (He adds animal flesh for better animation)

As he approaches, Ruler steps in his way, "If you are going to do something to this man-"

As quickly as she accuses him, Rictor raises his hand, "We are stuck here in the middle of a valley with no way to go. I've lost the night already and I might as well do something." He reaches down and picks up a couple of puppet fragments, "I've been on this earth long enough to fix a simple car. If you allow me, we can probably leave in a half hour."

She stares at him for a moment until relaxing her shoulders, "Fine. Fix his car so we can leave."

With Ibaraki now running around pillaging the peices of puppet and Joan talking to the truck owner, Rictor began his work.

It was soothing for him. After such a number of failures, he finally gets to work on something he won't fail in. He starts with clearing the engine and removing parts to make room for blah, blah blah.

As he was working, a sudden swoosh went by him. Being too into his work, it was only when he could get the engine started that he noticed the fight happening off to the side.

What happened during autism mode.

As Rictor starts his work, Ruler starts to pick up the puppet parts. While a little disgusted, she notices a small ligth over the horizen, which seems to grow brighter and brighter as it approaches. Realizing its an attack, she summons her flagstaff and attempts to block the projectile. The moment she gets hit though she is sent flying towards the mountain.

Noticing the sudden fight, Ibaraki gets up from the meal with a feral look about her, quickly batted away from the attacker.

The attacker goes for another burst of power rushes the Ruler, trying another attempt at impalement. Seeing the attack coming, she dodges off to the side and attempts to smake him with the flag pole, only for it to bounce off of him.

The Attacker attempts another attack, this time Ruler defending against the attack as she skillfully parried with a flag pole. Taking a moment to back away, she looks at him for a moment, "Lancer of Red, Karna. Why are you attacking me, the Ruler class Servant of this war!"

He readies his spear for another onslaught, "I am simply acting on my master's orders, Ruler. I bear you no ill will" With another gust of flames, he attacks Ruler.

As he is about to strike though, he is caught offguard as a raging Oni slices his back, sending him flying towards the ground as his armor is pierced, "YOU BASTARD! HOW DARE YOU HIT AN ONI WHILE SHES EATING!"

About now is when Rictor finishes his job, feeling Ibaraki drain on his reserves (50Mp). He notices the Servants fighting and the Old man on the ground trying to inch himself away.

>What does he do? At this point, welcome to combat. Go for a tactic or help your servant out. You can do many things and I hope you do well.

'Ibaraki, go wild.'

Rictor watches as Ibaraki smiles larger than any other time the two of them have been together. The drain finally touches his reserves as she roars, “FOR RUINING MY SNACK, KARNA, PREPARE TO BE PILLAGE BY THE ONI!” She roars a mighty roar as she runs up to Karna, smashing his head in with a mighty swing. With his own abilities, he could hear the bones of Karna crack just from that single hit.
Trusting his Servant, Rictor looked at the man crawling on the ground. Activating his eyes of enchantment, he ordered the man to flee as far as he can.
Looking back at the fight, Rictor watched as Karna attempted a rebuttle attack, slicing at her and slightly injuring her wrist. She smilled with a sadistic glee as she attempted another attack, slicing him so hard her blade truly pierced the unpierceable armor.
Rictor watched as a chunk of his side was ripped from his body. While he was in mid air, Ibaraki summoned a pair of fieri wings and charged at him. Before she could make it though, Karna disappeared in the night in a flash of red. Someone used a Command Seal to teleport him to freedom.

Rictor could hear Ibaraki shout at the non-existent Servant as he had a sudden sigh of relief. To think the literal embodiment of the sun was in this war, Ibaraki successfully defeated him.

Of course this meant they were going to make an ice-cream run after this.

Turning over to his right, he noticed Joan approaching him. She stood a ways away and spoke in an announcer voice, "Congratulations Master of Berserker, you have won the first battle of the Great Holy grail War."

Rictor gave a simple nod, "Yes, shes have taken care of a grave issue. Well, I fixed the Truck, so we should be able to leave-"

Looking over at the side, there is no more truck. Rictor watched as the truck slowly went over the horizen, regretting that he commanded the man to 'flee as far as possible'. He should have asked him to leave the truck.

>Well, what will Rictor do now? He lost the truck and is stranded.

>Headpat the Ibaraki and promise her more sugary treats for smacking the shit out of a literal demigod like it was an episode of Fist of the North Star

Honestly, while I know it won't ever happen because of what we and Ibaraki are, but the idea of us befriending the Saint of Orleans is fucking hysterical.

>>3123374
If the Homculai-Sieg can turn into a (Bad)Dragon and have her pine after his dick, then our friendship is possible.

"Well, my apologies about losing the truck. I told him to flee and forgot to tell him to leave the truck. Since you are stuck walking too, how about we walk together?"

Joan looks at him for a moment, a stone cold face that seemed to give under a weight, "I do owe your Servant for saving my life. It would also be better to walk together in case another Servant comes to attack us. Sure, I am willing. We will part ways at Trifas though."

Rictor could only smile, "Thats fine. I need to buy Ibaraki some treats before the sun rises anyways"

He sent a mental command to Ibaraki that hes going to award her with candy, with the response, "Yes, you should give powerful Oni tribute afterall."

They started their journey towards Trifas, now if only Rictor break the ice with Joan it would get less boring.

>>Write-in what you wanna ask her or talk about.
So, know why that lancer was after you or am I trying to do this war somewhat legitimately?

>>3123403
So Ruler, if you don't mind me asking, what was it like to hear the voice of God as a simple mortal woman? While your holy presence disturbs me I can't help but be fascinated about the story of your path to Sainthood?

>>3123403
Ask her about her life, talk about ours (with leaving out the cruel stuff that might have happened), get her to talk about the Sacred Art of Artillery Warfare.
Fun thing to think about, the actual Joan of Arc may have had some big expertise with using cannons than most of the other leaders of France when she was alive.

>>3123413
This also works too.

>>3123403
Question, since you could identiy Karna on sight, and he broke the rules by attacking you, would you be willing and able to share any weaknesses he might have?

Hey double 15! Nice. Now if only we could get a valid roll over 15 tonight...

As the two begin your walk (Ibaraki is still yelling at where Lancer Disappeared), its been a little quite. Noticing the akwardness, Rictor decided to break the ice, "Well, since Berserker saved your life, I want to know something."

Joan looks at him with that stone cold face, "I will answer within reason. I am the Ruler class of this Holy Grail War."

Rictor simply gives a nod before asking, "I know Karna is a powerful demi-god. His Armor should make him invincible and something yet in his legend, he loses it. While Ibaraki defeated him, my enemy knows the extent of her strength, which is a disadvantage considering their target was you. So I ask, what happens when he loses his armor like in the legend?"

She looks at Rictor with those stone cold eyes, before they give him a look of failue, "When Karna loses his armor, he is able to use his Secret Noble Phantasm, Brahmastra Kundala. It is a devastating attack that can tear through a nation and kill False Gods. If you face him again, I suggest your Servant use her own Phantasm to kill him right away."

My vote to faith because it would be interesting.

They walked down the road into a forest o trees. It wasn't the best place to be, but atleast Ibaraki finished yelling at Karna and started running back.

As they walked, there has been something bothering, "You know Joan, to be so young and yet god himself calls you to duty. I was around 40 when I was turned by a Dead Apostal, and I only went to war to keep myself fed. Why would someone of 16 years do something a 60 year old vampire would consider when he was starving?"

She looked at him for a moment, the stone face gone. It was surprise, then disgust, but finally acceptance, "I wasn't called by God to serve. No, all I heard was the crying of Angels." She looked at him with soft eyes, something that should belong to the face of a maiden, "When I heard them, I couldn't believe it at first. For God's servants to cry to be heard by a mortal like me. I think if anyone heard it they would have done the same thing I did. Maybe God chose me to fight for my country and save humanity. I might just been the one who heard them though"

"Oh," He realized the subject was a little touchy, but he was curious, "So what do you think of Dead Apostles. My kind preys on humans and kills them by the dozen if left to our own devices."

"She looked at him with a sad look, but strengthened herself, "All creatures were made by God. Even other Gods are but his own doing. He created your kind and turned you for a purpose, for which I am ignorant of. You feast on humans only because it is your nature. I only ask that you refrain from killing the innocent during this war, as one of my duties as Ruler"

Rictor, looking back at a Ibaraki that was catching up said, "I might be able to manage myself and my Servant."

She simply gave him a smile, "Thank you."

They made their way out of the forest, Trifas appearing on the Horizon.

Ok Everyone, I hope you like this session. I think I will be doing this more this coming weekend, just that I will be slower than this. Thanks for coming and please say if I need improvements anywhere like that guy from the start.

We will likely start back up in this thread so good night.

Thanks for running QM. I still want to know what her favorite meal is before we part ways just in case we end up meeting again under better terms.

>>3123638
Ah haaaaaa. She said 'refrain from killing the innocent'. That means we're free to hunt down and eat criminals! Thanks Jeanne your a doll!

Consider getting a tripcode

>>3124187
Tripcode?

>>3124206
>How do I use a "tripcode"?
>Tripcodes can help verify a user's identity to others, and are a type of pseudo-registration. To use a normal tripcode, place a hash mark ("#") followed by a word or short phrase after what you've entered into the [Name] field (ex. "User#password"). Upon submission, the server will generate the hash unique to that particular word or phrase. The previous example would display "User !ozOtJW9BFA" after being posted.


>Important note: A tripcode is generated only using the text entered after the hash mark. Your entered name, IP address, cookie information, etc. do not affect the output. Normal tripcodes are not secure, and can be cracked with relative ease. For a more secure solution, see secure tripcodes.

>What is a "secure tripcode"?
>A secure tripcode can be generated by placing two hash marks in the [Name] field, as opposed to one as with a normal tripcode (ex. "User##password"). Secure tripcodes use a secret key file on the server to help obscure their password. The previous example would display "User !!rEkSWzi2+mz" after being posted.

Ok everyone, I'm here and got a few hours to spare. This will be resuming shortly.

Quick summery: Going out to get some weapons form the Mafia, our duo ended up running over Ruler as she tried to flag them. After a shaky few moments, Ruler was attacked by Karna. Ibaraki gravely injured him however, forcing a retreat. NOw on moderate terms with Ruler, they return to Trifas because they cant make it to the Mafia deal before the sun came up.

_______________________

Rictor walked with Joan for a few more mile, Ibaraki now caught up with them. Now they stood outside the walls of Trifas, looking in to see a town that seemed devoid of life and activity.

Rictor faced Joan with a smile on his face, "I believe this is where we depart, Ruler. I want to ask one thing though, what is your favorite food?"

Joan looked at him with a face of question, far from the stone cold gaze she had when they first met, "My favorite food, why would you want to know that?"

Rictor simply smiled at the question, a genuine one that belongs to an old entertainer, "If we ever meet under more favorable terms, I wish to treat you to something well. I have had a few centuries of experience in food, so I might be able to bake something before we meet again."

She gave him a smile, like one a friend would give to another, "I enjoy a simple bread with butter on it. In my time, it was a delicacy for a peasant girl like me to get a hold of such a thing. We would celebrate the nights my family managed to get some."

Rictor gave her a frown, "Well that is not much to work with. Though, I might be able to do something with that, I will see. Good bye then and safe travels."

She started to walk off into the city with a smile on her face, "Thank you for helping me today, Rictor. I pray you will see this war through."

As Ruler walked off, Rictor thought about what he should do.

Rictor looked at Ibaraki with a grand smile, one that almost seemed to scare Ibaraki, "Ahahah! Well Ibaraki, for defeating Karna of all people I owe you something, what do you want to eat!"

While put off for a moment, Ibaraki soon gave him a smile of joy, "Yes, you promised an Oni tribute! A powerful Oni must receive a heft tribute as her prize!" She gave a questioning face for a moment mumbling foods until she blurted, "Your tribute to the Oni will be a mountain of Chocolate Icecream!"

"Then lets see if a stores still open."

They wondered the streets of Trifas, looking for any sign of a store. Most of the icecream that Rictor collected was from the capital, but now that their ride is gone that was out of the question.

The place seemed dead though, not a store in sight as they wondered the streets. It reminded Rictor of when war struck a city and the citizens would hide, but this seemed weirder. There was not a single person even among the shadows or bodies littering the ground. Even when his fellow Apostles tear a city a new one, there are usually stragglers picking up gold necklaces.

It was then that the smell of magic hit his nose. It was a scent similar to Joan, but not holy at all. There was also the smell of fresh blood, enough to satisfy him for months at least. There must be a battle. Ibaraki has not noticed thanks to her raiding dumpsters, an 'Old Oni Habit'.

>What does he do?

Smelling the signs of battle, Rictor quickly gave a notice to Ibaraki, 'I can smell some blood and mana, it seems a Servant is fighting somthing right now. Should we stalk them?"

Ibaraki only gave a subtle laugh, "Kukuku, this is the greatest tribute of all. Yes, Oni are good at ambushes"

They take a leap onto the roofs the could see the light show that was a Saber in galvanized grey armor. In quick slices she destroyed large golems and wasted the nearby human-like creatures. Near by was a man in bikers attire firing shot after shot, destroying the assumed humonculi.

It was unusual seeing the Oni this tempered. To Rictor, he thought she would have gone out to kill her already, but it seems the stories of Oni laying ambushes might have been her specialty instead of Shitun's.

They hanged out there for a moment, watching them slaughter the humonculi. The forces are about half way done and they are making quick work of them.

>What does Ritcor do?

>>3127749

As the two watch the knights laughter seems to escalate with more and more joy, completely unaware of being watched. She was attacking them indiscriminately, slicing and dicing them with every swing. Soon though, you noticed as he released a massive burst of energy, frying the many while laughing, "To dare challenge the heir to King Arthur's thrown! I Mordred will be your end!"

In moments Rictor recognized the name and without the helm, see her stats properly.

>Strength: B+ [80/+35]
>Endurance: A [50/+20]
>Agility: B [40/+15]
>Mana: B [400/400]

>Mana Burst: A (Cost 50)
>>Release a Burst of Lightning like energy. The DC is 30 Reflex and deals 10d10


They watched as they cleared out the Humonculi, oblivious to being watched from the roof tops.

You can hear a small laughter from Ibaraki, her face curling into a smile, "Kukuku, they have not noticed the Oni in wait. It would be boring to let them leave, eh Rictor?"

>Whats his response.

>>3127875
Little nit pick, Mordred's armor makes her unreadable and she wouldn't go around announcing herself like that.

"You know, we need allies and she seems like your type."

Ibaraki looks at you for a moment with a confused look until she got a small smirk, "She does fight like an Oni. The more we can pillage with the more we can carry back!"

Seeming to be in full agreement, they abandoned stealth. While it was not instant, the ruffed biker was the first to notice as they fell from the roof. He only took a moment to dive behind his Servant, who was dumbfounded at his actions.

>How do you wanna approach them?

>>3127926
"Before we start any transggressions towards each other, let's start with a introduction. It's only polite after all."

>>3127926

Trying his best not to make a fangy smile, he walked his way over ignoring the shotgun being reloaded, "Hello there, fellow mage. Before you shoot me, I believe we could have a productive relationship."

Mordred finally got her senses together with a "What the-" But the man spoke before his Servant could react, "Well shit. You must be the Master of Berserker. Your not Feend though, are you Dead Apostle?"

Rictor gave him a forwning face, "No I am not, I killed him weeks before the war even started."

A 'shit' could be heard with the biker's response, "Now you don't expect me to go with a guy who killed one of my allies."

Rictor was about to damn himself before Ibaraki beat him to the response, "So my master was going to be a weak human. Ha! I would have killed him myself." She laughed at herself for a moment, "Kuhuhu, we are here to trade information human and Rictor still owes me tribute."

Rictor just gave a sigh, "Its about morning now, I bet there some place for breakfast somewhere. I've got information you want, mage."

The Magi looked over at his Servant, who was now in a prepared stance. She seemed concentrated at the moment until she moved her sword to the side, "My Master is willing to meet with you, Vampire. Keep in mind though, if you try and enchant him, I will not hesitate to cut you down."

"Excellent!"

Rictor though to himself for a moment, suddenly remembering a bed and breakfast he saw in an advertisement when he came to Romania.

They followed the winding streets, shooting down a few birds that seemed strangely amendment about following them. They finally made their way to a moderate sized place, the lights seemingly the only thing lighting the streets.

They entered, a person coming from the back to greet them in the slavic tounge with an oddly cheerful mood, "Welcome travelers. Do you need a bed or a table?"

Ibaraki was the one to reply, not wanting to wait for food and asked for a table for 4.

The place looked old, like something that came from a fantasy setting. As you all wait, the presumed man's wife coming over to ask when everyone wanted.

>Food to order for funnsies
>How you wanna talk to them?

>>3128039
>>Ask for an order of Blood Sausage and Eggs, let Ibaraki order whatever she wants, use your Eyes to ensure a free meal.

"Well Berserker, order what you want. This counts as your tribute." A smile appeared on her face as she named almost everything on the menue, the waitress writing it all down with the weird elated expression the man had earlier. Just to be sure, Rictor's eyes flashed as he ordered some Blood Sausage and Eggs, something to keep down the hunger till a more proper feeding time.

The other two ordered, the mage getting some aeggs while his Servant ordered a near similar amount of food. Rictor could almost see sparks of competition as the two realized the other's habits.

When the wait for food began, Rictor opened the conversation, "My name is Rictor Melston, a puppeteer, Dead Apostle, and Master to Berserker."

The mage looked a litle shaky, but responded in honesty, "Well, I'm Kairi Susigo and hes Saber of Red. So, your the guy that took out Feend vor Sembren I take it?"

"Yes, the man didn't bother to cover his hands with a glove. Did you by chance know him?" It was blatant that Rictor didn't care about his kill.

Kairi also didn't mind with, "I can't say I know much more than his Clock Tower Portfolio. He was good at his job, but I guess he didn't think an Apostle was gunning to get in the war." He gave a serious stare under his shades, "So, you said you have some dirt on the others?"

Rictor laid back into his chair, relaxing in knowning he finally drew in the mage, "Yeah, I met with Ruler on my out of town and then with Lancer of Red as he attacked her."

Kairi's eyes lit up as Mordred came into the conversation, "Isn't Ruler suppose to be neutral and powered by the grail? Who's dumb enough to fight a meaningless fight?"

"I couldn't tell you. All I know is his true name and his secret phantasm."

Kairi's eyes narrowed at Rictor, "So since you know I am part of Red, why are you bothering talking to me."

Ibaraki simply laughed at the comment, "Kuhaha, Because you didn't run away with your tail between your legs like he did!"

Kairi's eyes narrowed at the laughing Oni, but Rictor decided to recover, "His name is Karna, the Indonesian Demi-God said to wear impenetrable armor."

The color from Kairi's face seemed to drain as he heard the description, "Shit."

Mordred however seemed unphased by the name, simply smiling as she spoke, "So, whats this 'Secret Phantasm'? I'm dying to know."

"Brahmastra Kundala. From what Ruler described, its some form of Final Attack once eh takes off his armor. Sounds like about the strength of a nuclear bomb to me."

The look on Kairi's face seemed to melt even further as the food arrived, the waitress not minding their talk.

>Continue or is there something else you wanna talk about?

I also going for some supper, so I'll be back in like an hour I want to say.

>>3128173
>Continue or is there something else you wanna talk about?
Talk about Guns, Cars and Magic. The usual things to get autistic about.

>>3128173
>Something is clearly up with the some of the other red masters. I however, intend to participate in this war as intended as long as possible. If you ever get into contact with any of the other masters of red via any means and get any weird messages or orders let us know.

>>3128173
So, I see you understand the gravity of the situation...or atleast you think you do. The truth is that Berserker was eating when Karna Attacked, and her Wrath proved sufficent to break The Unbreakable Armor, carve out of chunk of Lancer's chest, and force his master to recall him with a Command Spell. I was not idely boasting when I said that my Berserker is the strongest servent in this war, but even we could be overcome with the strength of numbers, so I would seek an alliance with you.

Our servants would loyally fight together, come to each others aid should the need arise, we would not betray or abandon each other until we were the only master servant pair left standing, and I would even be willing to introduce you to a contact of mine that happens to deal in weaponry, so long as you swear the same. With a Geies perhaps?

The Servants started to eat through their meals like it was a competition. Ibaraki was the first to start, tearing through it with the beastiality of the Oni she was. Mordred however attacked her meal with the verocity of a Dragon, tearing it into nothing as they both fought for meal supremesy.

The Masters however however did not do such a thing. Kairi's will was strained at the mention of the Demi-God Karna. Such a being would naturally be near impossible for even someone of even Mordred's stature to defeat, even if she thinks otherwise.

However, "So, I see you understand the gravity of the situation...or at least you think you do. The truth is that Berserker was eating when Karna attacked. Disrupting her meal, her wrath proved sufficient to break The Unbreakable Armor and carve out of chunk of Lancer's chest and force his master to recall him with a Command Spell. I am not idly boasting when I said that my Berserker is the strongest Servent in this war."

Rictor swears that he never even touched the man, but he looked like he was drained of his blood. However, he wass till able to speak, "So you guessed I'm not working with them because I didn't know your Servant defeated a world conquering Demi-God and almost mortally wounded him through his armor."

Rictor laughed a little under his breath, "Don't worry though, I'm not here to bully you to submission. That's just my credits as a proper ally for you, Master to Master. I want us to become allies, Kairi. I'm no fool, with enough Servants Ibaraki will be slain. With you however, we might be able to force the others into a stalemate with our combined might."

Kairi's face suddenly had a return to color. He looked over to his Servant, who was playfully laughing at the other who was begging for water as remnants of a ghost pepper was on the table.

"Very well. I guess my Servant doesn't really mind."

Rictor's face lit up in joy, "Then let us make a Geies. I pledge not to antagonize you, Kairi, in any way until we are the remaining two in this war."

Kairi simply lit himself a cigarette, "I pledge not to antagonize you, Rictor, in any way until we are the remaining two of this war."

After that, they finished the Geies as the two Servants finished their meals, Ibaraki failing to beat Mordred in the fight.

>Anything else or leave for home? The Sun will rise in an hour.

>>3128374
Do we have a phone number or something he could use to contact us? While the Geies prevents a betrayal I'm not really willing to invite him to our lair and I doubt he feels comfortable accepting the offer either.

>>3128374
Yes
Find a car.
We need a car.

>>3128383
>>3128374
Oh yeah, probably wouldn't hurt to have a way to stay in contact with our ally.

>>3128420
>>3128383
>>3128374

Car, phone, but not carphone please

>>3128374
Anyway, hopefully give him our phone number, warn him not to be in town after sundown tomorrow, steal a car, and go back to puppet building.

Personally I wanna make a little Jeanne De Arc Puppet, make of poilshed wood, and give it to Ruler later.

Rictor and Kairi traded magical fax numbers and went off their separate ways.

The finally made thier way back into his base, a new car in their possession. Someone removed the engine, but with the remaining puppet parts, Rictor was able to fix it right back.

It was an Eventful night. Most fighting in the wars were relegated to night, so they didn't need to bother with going out until tomorrow.

What should he do?

>Build Puppets

>Arrange another Mafia meeting

>Other

>>3128460
You can do both, just that the puppets will be less.

>>3128460
>>Arrange another Mafia meeting
>>When that's done with, build some small wooden laqured puppets that looks just like Jeanne, Kairi, Mordred, and Ibaraki as gifts.
Ask Ibaraki if she wants a puppet of someone made.

But we should prepare to actually hunt for some blood to feed ourselves with.

>>3128475
Eh, we can just walk into town, get our guns, and use our Eyes to find out where some rival criminal enterprises are in town. Then Rictor and Ibaraki can FEAST.

Roll for puppet quality~!

They are of moderate quality. easily recognized and with Rictors skill are quite valuable. With this, the next night sets in as Rictor and Ibaraki load up for another ride. Ibaraki wearing her seatbelt tightly this ride.

Their objective is Bucharest, capital of Romania.

Ok, thats it for tonight everyone. Don't know when I will resume, but I plan to at some point. In all likely hood it might be mid day tomorrow when I have the most time.

Watch if there is a new thread, I don't really know since this one is pretty long now.

Lastly, if someone could properly archive the last ones that be great as I got no idea what I'm doing there.

Again, thanks for coming and if you have any criticism, tell me since I want to make this better and maybe set up for another one after this.

>>3128586
Good run OP, thanks for the run, did Ibaraki ask for a Shuten Doji Doll?

>>3128586
Thanks for running QM.
Well outside of the hunger meter/blood reserves for our nature as a Dead Apostle. The only thing that I can think of crunchwise is showing what our defensive modifiers are in more detail since the Dungeons and Dragons system in general usually also had this to add emphasis to the differences between raw potential and trained skill. As it is any person can deploy an ability that has their reflex difficulty check over 25 and it can be spammed on us till final death. Of course I might be jumping the gun on this however since we never really gotten into combat with an actual flesh and blood human and not a servant so that's skewing my expectations a fair bit.

>>3128620
Yeah, he's geared towards human combat. I just jacked his int because that's the magic mod. I would give an example, Kairi, but I'm keeping that close. Think of Rictor as a level 15 while Kairi is level 10 in DnD terms. The Servants are level 20 with massive stat boosts.

Ok, starting up once again! we will stick to this thread because its easy that way.

Quick Summery: After befriending Ruler, our dynamic duo come across Kairi and Mordred while they were fighting Humonculi. They convince them that they should fight together against a common enemy that is the Red and Black faction. Now they ready themselves for hopefully a proper trip to the capital.

Through the day, the two prepare for traveling to Bucharest, Romania. About mid way through the day, a message is sent by Kairi with the following details.

>"I've gotten word that a Servant is rumored to be in Bucharest. I'm guessing it is Assassin of Black, but they seemed to kill magi indiscriminately. I'm going there to check the place out. Since you said we should work as a team, this is the kind of thing you meant. You up for some hunting?"

>What is Rictor's response?

>>3130080
>>Tell you had buisness in the area anyway, so you'll be happy to join him, and you'll even bring gifts!
>>Bring the Mordred and Kairi puppets.
>>Also bring one of your crow familiars, a mole familiar, a Defender, and all of your Oni Puppets.

I should mention I edited the stats of Rictor and the Servants to include proper Save mechanics. I also buffed DCs once I reallized most Servants can save with ease.

>>3130111
+1

>"Yeah, I have some business over at Bucharest. We can try and meet up while I'm over there. I've also got some gifts for ya. -Rictor"

Rictor packed up the dolls of Mordred and Kairi along with a small army of puppets. While he wasn't able to pack all of them, he got about 5 Onis, a crow, a mole, and one of his Defenders.

After loading them, he and Ibaraki jumped into the car and went their way to Bucharest.

Give me a roll. You never know whats happening.

Hopping into the vehicle, the took a drive to Bucharest. This time around, they were lucky in that there was no Ruler running around on the road nor were any strange bird following them. They did however see a strange light come from the forest next door, but who cares about swamp gas anyways.

The drive takes about half an hour, arriving near the city of Bucharest. Being a place of both old and new, small skyscrapers could be seen, but they were outnumbered by the dozens upon dozens of stone architecture and the old wall that surrounded the city.

As they approached, the duo noticed the place seemingly deader than the last time Rictor came through. From a quick search, it seems the city is running crazy from the number of murders that have occured in the last few days. People are scared right now, which is a problem.

>Coming in, what should Rictor do forst?

>Contact Mafia

>Contact Kairi

>Other?

>>3130256
>>Use your super senses to find a isolated human, drain them dry, let Ibaraki eat the body, and then go meet the Mafia. Make sure you don't get blood on your clothing.

>>3130260
>>3130256
Need a good feast. Maybe try to make it some kind of mugger or other such brute, considering our discussion with Ruler.

>>3130272
Yeah I forgot, if we find a regular civi, try and use our eyes on them to find out where some common criminal hangouts are, then go there. I DON'T want to piss off Ruler if we don't have to.
