Each of the Isekai victims living on a diet of half-starved squirrels, boiled mushrooms, and the refusal to die is stopped cold on their trail by the sight of something even the least sane among them wouldn't have expected in a dozen minutes of grabbing at meaningless hypotheticals. A swathe of pine trees has been flattened and shattered, and to either side are the wheeled tracks of an impossible machine that should not be, but crudely parked in an outcropping of trees, it stands in a mountain of splinters- a monument to one man's defiance of sanity, rationality, and common sense in favour of a glorious eternal truth only he can see.

The LeTourneau diesel-electric transmission overland train was his choice and his alone, and in truth, when he was given the decision to make, he knew, consequences be damned that none other would ever suffice. It has been nigh-impossible to keep its cabin and the four cars attached fed the two-hundred and twenty pounds of fuel it needs to keep moving and with the stockpile that came dwindling down to less than two week's worth of tonnage, the conductor was in dire straights. The two others that came with him into the frozen wasteland and agreed to travel rather than risk starvation, Mark and Dante, have pitched in where they can but with each day to go by, keeping the LeTourneau diesel-electric transmission overland train moving instead of freezing seems more and more unsustainable with each minute that passes.

Little by little, the three had begun to lose hope but awakening to the sudden sound of stunned shouts, they stare out the cabin's window and catch sight of ten armed, road-weary, and utterly befuddled men that are clearer than the day. Neither side knows each other's names, but they remember the combine harvester, and their shared dimensional roots gives them a mutual understanding that no native of this world could ever know. What comes next, time alone can tell and elsewhere, the God of Chaos sits on the edge of his seat.

"Fucking finally. Remind me to grab a book in town because holy shit that was boring."

"Right you faggots must be the new batch. I don't feel the need to introduce myself because honestly, I can't be sure how long you'll last."

"First order of business, Miyashita or Emiya whatever your name's too complicated. The lord of Taedmorden is offering your people Asylum. It might be a good place to spread your faith and start over to be perfectly honest"

>>3919899
"I talked to lord Fellhand and he seemed like a decent enough dude. I REALLY don't want to recount everything so Terry if you don't mind could you play them the recording."

"TL;DR is he's offering us a place to stay for a few heads but since I wasn't a pussy I asked him for some harder quests.
It's pretty much mountain bandits or cultists really."

"I told him I'd give him an answer soon too."

>>3919951
"This isn't to say we shouldn't take a few days off in Caelkirk by the way.
I think we need to make some money and get at least some supplies before we set off on the quests."

>>3919951
“How about we get situated and more importantly out of this snow field before we start arguing over quests? We can listen to it at anytime but we have a strict timetable for getting our shit together. We can start by asking these strangers for a ride.”

>>3919967
"What'you mean shit together?
You can't even be sure how many of them are actually awake or go off into bumfuck nowhere like those three ones I can't even remember the names of.
Hell play the recording for them too if you want it'll give them an idea what's going on, even give them a recap since I already talked about all the shit we did."

Are Dante and Mark even here? I know Jackson isn't because he said he would be gone.

>>3919972
“We don’t even know who these guys are or what they’re doing here. For all we know they have no connection to or knowledge of our “employer”. In case you haven’t noticed, we’re out in the freezing tundra and may as well be half starved. We have more immediate business to deal with, like basic survival.”

>>3919976
"There we fucking go"

"The options are, Open the chance, just the chance and option to talk about the exposition or wait for the new people to MAYBE reply so they can give their cringe ass introductions about not knowing what happened and suddenly waking up here and waaaaa waaa useless exposition about themselves nobody gives a shit about that probably won't matter since they'll probably go catatonic anyway."

>>3919976
Dante should be around. As for Mark, I have no idea. He pretty much disappeared after joining.

>>3919981
"What the fuck is this catatonic shit anyways? Remember Jake? Orion? New Guy? None of them have said or done anything since before we got here."

>>3919980
"Jesus you actually want to the do the whole character introductions spiel.
You know we're gonna be stuck here all day with this cliche?"

>We have more immediate business to deal with, like basic survival.
"It's fine what're we even gonna talk about?
Hey maybe we should actually be using magic or our powers to help survive even though that's already been taken into account?
This travelling session's just gonna be that zombie horde again, just more of the same shit till we actually hit an encounter."

"The only thing to talk about are the new guys and DEAR GOD I couldn't care less about people who probably won't even respond."

>>3919984
I don't get why people make characters if they're not going to play.

>>3919990
"Bitch we're all from 4chan /qst, of course we'd be a bunch of people who back out hours after starting something."

Can we just say that we get on the train and keep moving if none of the lobotomites step forward to represent themselves?

>>3920001
"At least this one speaks, Just give us your name cheat/s and/or classe/s.
Then I guess give us a one sentence, fifteen word description of yourself to make bitch boy over there happy."

>>3919988
I’m not talking about introductions. Something like “hey can we hitch a ride we’re going to xxx”. It’s that simple. I think your mixing up in-game events with the actual progression of the thread.

>>3919990
Beats me, some actually put some thought into theirs which makes it worse.

>>3920006
Hell yeah Mark, thanks for showing up.

>>3920011
“Rogue and After-Effect, You guys should come in. It must have been an exhausting trek from god knows where you’ve been. Do shake the snow off before entering its a fucking horror cleaning up after such a group”

>>3920021
"Right I'm just gonna pretend we weren't already gonna do that"

"So awkward silence or does anybody want to play I spy?"

>>3920013
Happy to be here, tho I think we should be talking bout what were gonna do as am thinking OP is waiting for our rolls. I suggest all of us help on getting fuel for the train and if the mages can be bothered do the magic fuel thing OP said

“Sounds good to me. Extreme wether doesn’t faze me as much as most people but there’s only so much snow one can trudge through before they’ve had enough.”

"Ahh but I have a filter for edgy bullshit so I call disability"

"Alright my turn I spy with my little eye something we've been dragging with us since the landing on this waste land that starts with E but should really start with U."

It's getting late where I'm at and I have to be awake extremely early tomorrow, so I'm going to let the conversation continue and wait for others to get on until then.

>>3919995
Feels a bit off to let everyone board the LeTourneau diesel-electric transmission overland train before Jackson's had anything to say about it, even if there's 99/1 odds he wouldn't have a problem.

>>3920001
Good to see you're still here, I'll tally your rolls tomorrow in case anyone else attempts an action.

>>3920071
If you somehow pull this off, a table flip provided by yours truly, will be in order.

>>3920069
Inevitably, and you'll see.

>>3920071
After-Effect summons alternate versions of yourself from nearby timelines, and I'm almost certain that given the choice of any vehicle manufactured in the last century, none of them would've chosen to bring a LeTourneau diesel-electric transmission overland train to Isekai setting. Then again, you know yourself much better than I do, and if you call tell me in full honesty that you've watched the Polar Express double-digits of times, you may make the attempt in the future.

These rolls would've failed though, the more different an iteration of yourself is the harder they are to bring. Sorry to hold the show and skip out an hour after starting the thread, but my mornings tend to be busy. Out of curiosity, what are you trying to cook?

>>3920076

>>3920086
Mystery Stew, made from anything I had my hands on, could I employ my After-Effect with the cooking if i may add.

This is still me tho I was posting from my phone and is currently using my laptop

So, sorry for keeping quiet. Things happened and I had no way to respond.

Also somebody might tell you but honestly who gives a shit you'll find out soon enough."

"By the way, you didn't say it but Lee Ghandeez Nuts."

"I'd have to call you lucky then, because we got thrown right into a zombie attack when we got here. We're headed to a town that shouldn't be too far from here and as we're in this situation we might as well stick together for the time being. I assume the train is courtesy of the frog?"

>>3920166
I stare at you in disbelief, I stare until my expression cracks and my laughter sounds around the room. "Fuck! Shit, nigga I needed that. aight I ain't gonna push your shit in to get the info." I close my eyes, lean back, and sigh.

>>3920170
"That sounds like a good idea. We could probably make good time if anyone could drive this piece of shit."

>>3920179
"Didn't you just drive it over here?"

"Jackson, he can drive but he's doing his shit again. He has, issues? Yeah, let's call it that. This thing isn't moving till he starts."

After making these discoveries (and looking over my most recent voicemail) I become interested in the psychic link between the Nokia and other sentient creatures. It’s ties are obviously close to me, but there is no doubt that the connection can extend to the callers in significant ways. These are the thought that run through my mind as I try to get a better understanding of its psychic prowess.

After working up a decent sweat, and showing off my abilities I decided to rest a bit and chat up any female members of the cult or the priestess herself.

"You Seemed surprised by abilities, is skill like mine so rare?" While talking, I actively lean on the power of my vice to increase arousal.

Change of plans, I'm back earlier than expected but I'll have to leave for 3-4 hours when 2 PM hits. Not enough time for a full update, I'm afraid, but I can process dice rolls.

Cool, I know how to make things out of wood...I guess. Oh well, social links require the most mundane of things to be done for progress.

For real I'm going to need to find a library or just trail and error casting spells till I suck less at it.

It's mainly a fuel and construction issue. You're not going to get a good burn on damp brush, you need tinder, kindling and larger pieces for fuel if you want something substantial.

Not one of those guys. I glad to see it works so well on someone so chaste. I'm actually thinking about how well my chosen abilities are comboing so well with my new powers. Brawling, Dancing, and Breathing seem to be working out.

How well can you preform the electric slide?

The only slide I know how to do is the Cha-Cha slide, and that's because of a dance class I was forced to take for a month in elementary.

Meanwhile, I know how to sing because I went to a C of E (Church of England) School where singing is mandatory.
Now that I've said this, there are a lot of skills that I have IRL that I didn't put in the sheet because I thought it wouldn't be relevant.

>>3920818
You gotta roll those dice first buddy.

>>3920813
I have no access to a computer before 3:00 and 7:30 onward is my designated stuff doing time, so I usually have to get off at 7:30

>>3920818

>>3920822
Hopefully this doesn’t impact your ability to play too much. OP updates fairly erratically so hopefully you won’t miss the big stuff.

>>3920830
I was joking, but honestly we could just settle it between ourselves. The one with the lowest rolls or whoever gets a triple crit yes wins.

>>3920834
"Thanks. You might also be able to show me how best to put my... Other ability to best use."

>>3920839
I don't think there's going to be a lack of space anyways. There's two entire empty compartments so we should be good.

Can I Assist in the creation of Stew?

>>3920844
"Definitely. I'm a bit jealous myself because equipment has been a bit of an issue for me. Being able to grow my own armor would have saved me a lot of pain."

>>3920846
I was under the impression that there were seats in the cars but with that triple expansion who knows what the layout actually looks like. Either way, giving a single person all of that space would be wasteful and I’m sure the others wouldn’t want to lose 25% of their space.

And by the way, Although the Train is Mighty, we are not and have been unable to make use of the trees we've knocked over as of yet. After Stew, I'd advise everyone fit for work to help load the trees into the Train for fuel. Conductor Out."

There's not seats, but there are siderooms ala the Oriental Express but there's about 3 times as many.

>>3920862
It was never stated to show strengths and secret abilities IIRC. It doesn’t really matter everyone will do it to some degree, it’s inevitable.

>>3920863
Thanks for clearing that up.

>>3920867
It told me all the abilities of the Death Knight, including lifedrain, damage reflection, and necromantic sight. It logically follows that I would be able to see the same in anyone else I came across.

>>3920876
If that's the case, keep quiet about it. Being a part-time Lovecraftian abomination isn't something I want widely known.

>>3920878
Got it. I don't want my ability to become known either.

What non prayer skills would a priest of Ra have? Not sure that that is what I'm going with though

>>3920876
When did you get to “scan” the Death Knight? The only one who saw him was Miracle and that was in a vision. I could be wrong, but I think OP just gave us his abilities as a freebie.

>>3920890
He gave the abilities as a response to my question, here's the exact information:

Of course the grave-knight's dead, but he is reanimated and intact. At the moment he's half an hour's ride away but the sound of an earthquake and sudden loss of almost forty undead has certainly caught his attention. There's an even 50/50 chance he's going to ride back and investigate for himself or cut his losses and hoof it while he can.

You sense that there are several different kinds of reanimated knight, this in particular is a grave-knight, a powerful necromantic warrior risen to do battle by the decree of a dark god. In this case, Yredelemnul. They are essentially wights but better in every way, possessing strength and durability at least five times what they had in life, necromancy to match a sorcerer, and a handful of innate abilities, most notably, animating any corpses in sight, absorbing life force to heal themselves or hurt their foes, and with intense focus and exhaustion, mirroring the wounds inflicted on them to reflect half of the damage they suffer to their opponents.

You reason that if you were to fight the grave-knight, your best chance would be at a distance with a small battalion of archers firing blessed arrows and at least one priest banishing the negative energy, preferably with a sorcerer bringing down as many destructive spells as possible. Failing that, catching him by surprise before he can activate his mirror ability is ideal.

A common thread with Death Perception is it can be applied as broadly or as precisely as needed with very little restrictions.

>>3920890
Just reread thread #1 you didn’t actually see him but OP gave you the info simply because you asked for it. The implications of this are very interesting. If it wasn’t just an oversight on his part, that would mean you would have inherent knowledge on virtually anything you can conceptualize without having to even encounter it.

Hey how do I join

>>3920904
It's absurdly bullshit. Even the description of the cheat uses the vaugest possible terminology.

The reason why I prefer it so much over the other cheats is because it starts out as ungodly levels of bullshit but gives nothing in terms of raw power or ability. This means I can completely focus on improving my normal abilities rather than developing a unique power, and it just feeds into better utilization of Death Count.

>>3920913
Read the archive.

>>3920915
You won’t be so high and mighty when the patch comes out. Seriously though, you got a lucky combination. You should be a monster for the first few threads given you warrior buffs and cheat. Of course the casters could utilize it better but they’re S tier anyway so they could exploit virtually any cheat to the max.

>>3920934
I don't intend to depreciate as time goes on. I hope to be able to get an item in the vein of a Glove of Holding and use that so I can carry tons of weapons with me so I can exploit any weakness I come across. Elemental enchants are also a must have.

>>3920942
The two of us will face similar issues once the others become more consistent in their performances. We might have our moments from time to time but I imagine that pure melee fighters will find themselves at a huge disadvantage somewhere down the line. I plan on mitigating that by either enchanting some daggers or getting a hand crossbow, but I doubt mundane things like crossbows will be of much use when we get deep into the campaign.

I'm a bit more optimistic for the future of nonmagic classes. There are martial artists that have ascended their skill to deific status on the Crawl pantheon after all. And magic just seems a bit flimsy even at higher skill levels. Props to Lie for taking wizard though, that's the kind of consistency I would want from magic but as it stands sorcery seems to be a bit too insubstantial for my taste.

>>3920948
If You get a crossbow, at least get a hefty one. A one handed crossbow isn't powerful enough to no just have a shortbow.

If this anything like dnd than wizards will be weak at the begining but become gods at the end.

>>3920960
class/cheats if applicable?

>>3920967
It's kind of written right into the class description that sorcery is unreliable. Not saying it's useless or lackluster or anything but I just don't think it's consistent enough to be relied on. Nobody has even gotten a spell off besides Lie who took a reliability based subclass.

>>3920960
Roll for cheats or state your subclass, please.

>>3920963
When you really think about it everything here is flimsy to some degree. Things can be mitigated by higher stats but even a warrior can be fucked over by a few bad rolls. I’d say melee is only slightly more consistent than magic but it’s outpaced in both potency and utility.

>>3920966
I don’t plan on using it for its damage output.

>>3920968
>>3920998

That's fine.

>>3920848
>>3920858
The soup's already succeeded, but you can retroactively assist.

>>3920867
Death Count does show secret abilities, but only in relation to how they can be defended against or countered. For example, he doesn't instinctively know that Jackson can grow and recede eldritch limbs, but he knows how to properly dodge and retaliate if he does, which is something Death Count would have only told him if it was a possibility.

>>3920883
Ra is the god of the sun, order, kings, and the sky, so a priest of Ra could project sunlight at varying degrees of intensity, banish/detect chaos, and speak with an authority equivalent to a local monarch.

>>3920901
Correct.

>>3920904
>>3920915
Death Count is ludicrous amounts of bullshit.

>>3920913
Check the first thread my dude.

>>3920934
>>3920942
>>3920948
Sorcery requires clarity of mind, visualisation, and the spell hitting a target that isn't resistant or able to counter. Generally, it takes several seconds from start to finish, whereas a Warrior or Rogue can simply act and disrupt the process at any moment. In addition, enchanted equipment replicates much of what a sorcery is capable of doing, bridging the gap significantly.

>>3920960
Alright, do you want a class and a cheat, two cheats, or an immediate specialty class?

>>3921022
You need to roll for your cheat, anon.

>cont.

>>3921139
>>3921029
>>3921035
...
I would've shit myself with laughter if I didn't just leave the toilet clogged. You lucky, ludicrous bastard.

>(10) Harem Protag You now have a sex appeal that defies logic, giving an *absolute* bonus to seduction attempts and compelling members of the opposite sex to get jiggy with it, to the extent that you must roll to determine whether they are willing to engage in coitus, not whether they are interested. They are always open to polygamy but members of the same sex will resent you. Some violently.
>(5) Edgelord You can teleport behind your foes, summon ninja weapons OR dual desert eagles/uzis at your discretion, and drain life force to regenerate or fuel your attacks when you cut someone. You can also cut yourself and reabsorb it at an equal ratio. Forbidden sorcery comes twice as easily and malign entities see you as their equivalent and take you seriously, for good or ill. This comes at the cost of a gravelly voice, deep dislike of daylight, and the permanent fixation to wear a trenchcoat and dark-tinted sunglasses, which you can summon at will. If your dialogue is sufficiently edgy, you may receive a bonus to any given roll.

>>3921137
It will be glorious. All I need to do is find a way to take the BBEG’s powers for my own and then the time will come for me to A C C E L E R A T E.

>>3921133

>>3921134
I agree. It'll lower the train's usefulness if the snow goes

>>3921109
Presumably, but none have been generated yet. Also, as >>3921119 says, it is Very Unlikely.

>>3921064
You can powerlevel Lust until your seduction bonus is almost as potent, then ride on the auxiliary abilities the vice also provides. Note, sex doesn't improve Shi's strength, it's just sex. Remember, Vice/Virtue gives you fourteen potential power trees, of which Lust is only one.

>>3921133
The hero we need.

>>3921134
>>3921148
The most righteous motivation for a BBEG I've ever seen.

>>3921151
To be honest, Harem Protag and Edgelord were both jokes, never in a million years would I have imagined that someone would roll them both. This is going to be hysterical.

>>3921156
Atta boy.

>>3921159
If I had to choose a single cheat, personally, you better believe I would be going with the brick phone, if only for the sheer amount of low-risk sorcerous pacts I could be signing.

>>3921160
>>3921164
Good job.

Shi, I still need you to choose whether you want to summon ninja weapons OR dual desert eagles/uzis at will.

>>3921165
It's unlikely that the rolls will go that far. You should worry when you have high rolls in the first two because they are usually for your own actions.

>>3921170
It appears as if we have a shared interest in preserving the sanctity of the status quo comrade.

Shi would be a fool not the take the guns. Unless they can run out of ammo.

>>3921164
>>3921165
I even have Above Average skill in cooking.

>>3921171
My favorite thing about edgelord is that it doesn't actually give you skill in those weapons you can just have them.

Also the fact that you can teleport but only behind other people is hilarious.

The ability to cut yourself at no hp cost is pretty good too.

>>3921178
Bros before Hoes

>>3921179
The guns do come loaded, but are little use against some entities. Of course, the inverse is equally true, especially with the teleportation ability.

>>3921183
Exactly. Don't get me wrong, it's an extremely powerful cheat, but it takes strategy and training to use at its full potential.

>>3921171
Dual Desert Eagles

>>3920858
>>3921164
I forgot to mention, I would like to grab an axe(long handled if there is one) from the storage to keep as a weapon, for later training with Chase especially.

>>3921171
Given my new semi-playful ambitions, and this utility, I just might go for a rogue/caster hybrid.

>>3921184
A golden rule if there ever was one.

>>3921188
Noice, man you've really lucked out. Don't forget, you can also summon dual uzis.

Give me a moment to update the PDF with Shi Taberu Hito and we'll be cooking with crisco.

I wonder... What would be equivalent to a stand arrow in terms of the cosmic vending machine?

>>3921202
I'm I immune to cuts or is that only when I cut myself.

>>3921143
Is this the most hilarious possible combination of cheats anyone has as of the moment?

>>3921212
>>3921212
Only when cutting yourself, so you can perform selfharm at no cost.

>>3921213

Done, most woodcutting axes are long-handled and you have dozens.

>>3921196
It would be potent, for sure.

>>3921209
You would need a significant stockpile to have a chance, permanent powerups tend to be extremely valuable.

>>3921212
You aren't immune to cuts from outside attacks, but your life drain regeneration and teleportation abilities will make you extremely difficult to put down. In addition, if you decide to pursue forbidden magic (necromancy, demonology, and certain variants of pyromancy and illusion magic, among others) it will come to you much more easily.

>>3921213
Indeed.

Fack, there's always something. I missed Lie's action too, which I'll rectify shortly.

>>3921246
Yes but you have no skill in them and there are no firearms teachers in fantasyland.

>>3921232
I should have Above Average in Cooking. Thanks for adding glasses though. Wait. Do I even have glasses? Am I effectively driving the Train blind?

I can see shapes and colors past 4 feet, but it does get difficult to make out more than a vague shape after about 40 ft, 4 ft + I can't read anything or see fine details. This might get hairy.

In and around the LeTourneau diesel-electric transmission overland train, the Iskeai victims recollect their past accomplishments and strive to push themselves in vigorous training. Limits exist to be broken and those who embraced the nature of this new world know that all too well. On the journey to this junction, several had the foresight to train ahead of Caelkirk, some with more success than others.

Pleasantly surprised by his lack of sensitivity to the cold, Alex deepened his understanding of meditation but, to his disdain, found that he could only increase his knowledge of what he has become through the consumption of a sapient soul. Sentients, mere squirrels and vermin are adequate sustenance, but only the annihilation of true, thinking souls can further his understanding of the unholy. He and Miyashita build up a rapport, and she often reflects that it would be terrible to lose such a kindhearted young boy to the dangers they're facing.

Mark, future master of timelines realises that this many newcomers are going to need to be fed sooner or later. Accordingly, he finds an obscenely massive pot and with the help of Jackson, who knows his way around a kitchen surprisingly well, they manage to cook a delicious stew. Most of the various adventurers who have it for lunch seem quite taken with it, but then again, anyone would be after enough time struggling to scrape by in the woods. Filled with the contentment a chef has prior to cleaning the dishes, he leans back and smiles, before the feeling of a tug from a nearby timeline catches his attention and ceases immediately. This first time meeting could've gone much worse.

David, in company with [Dr. Stone], props his feet up onto a table and enjoys a warm nap on a full belly. That's the life, right there. Doesn't get any better than that. His mirror opposite in many ways but so similar in some, Miracle directs his attention to cultivating a proper campfire. The endeavour is an admirable proof of concept, but between the damp snow and poor fuel, he discovers nothing new more than how little he knows. Eventually he'll be better, and when he does, his aptitude of woodcraft will be an asset to any party. [Speed Demon] doesn't say so aloud, but he's sure of it.

While this is going on, Dante and Chase decide to train at the same time, and after a few warm-ups and some mental stretching, the two engage in a bout of impromptu sparring that leaves the watching cultists clapping. They would be a dangerous pair, especially considering how much room Dante has to grow, and how far Chase has furthered his swordsmanship over the last week.

"O-oh, it's extremely rare. You have no idea. So many sorcerers come- came into the temple with horrific burns and some were even missing fingers or eyes but you..." The priestess shifts on one leg, trying and failing to hide the rising blush in her cheeks. "You're s-so talented..."

During the resident lightning manipulator's conversation with the priestess, Terry focuses on getting to the bottom of what exactly his brick phone can do but first... *CLICK* "I'm so sorry I missed your call but there's so many maimed martyrs and weary souls flooding into heaven I just haven't had the time to-" the voicemail. "-get back to you later, I'm on the crystal sphere with someone now. No, they're not a prophet, they're a... Nevermind, I'm... sorry about that mortal. I'll call you back when I can but since the demon lord rose... WHAT?" He holds the phone at a distance, before realising it dampens harmful volumes of speech. "THERE'S HOW MANY ABANDONED WISPS THAT NEED THEIR MEMORY BACK!?! Oh no, I have to leave... R-remember to say your prayers, drink plenty of water, and stay away from ephemeral dream-silvers and inter-dimensional trance powders! I love you, bye!"

...

It seems the goddess of healing is badly overworked. Discarding the dark implications of that, Terry focuses on getting to the bottom of what the brick phone can really do. Almost an hour later, he's found that there are a handful of settings he can edit at his leisure, ranging from volume, to translation rate, to remote influence block percentage, among others. Even the teleportation sound effect when he summons and dismisses it can be customised. Some cheats might be more impressive or useful overall, but it's a damned nice phone.

At the same time this is going on, Anon flexes in the reflection of the LeTourneau diesel-electric transmission overland train's polished sides, almost swearing that his countless hours of lifting rocks and putting them down on the trail has bolstered his strength. Maybe not noticeably, but the biceps seem a little veinier and from what little he knows from /fit/, with a body so tiny, bulking should be really easy, right? Moments away, ignoring the sound of the shadow imp huffing as he lifts a rock at least twice his size, Alex is engrossed in a startlingly fascinating conversation with a cultist about the finer details of whittling. "Now ye see, ye can't jus' whack at it... 'cha gotta work da knife along wit' da groove, ye gotta really work wit' da wood, not against it... 'cha get it? Heheaha, lemme show ye a piece of work I did way back when. I's a bit of gnome ivoury some fool wen' n' brought in, i's real nice shine to it, 'cha see? Yeahuhn, so..."

Contemplating the art of illusion for a vast amount of time, the wizard eventually comes to the conclusion that shit is complicated. That said, he is a scholar and it didn't stop him from puzzling out abstract calculations for exponentially less gain, so why should it stop him here? With a bit of experimentation, Lie figures out that illusions need not be focused on a particular person and the less detailed they are, the more consistently they can be summoned. A spray of prismatic colours erupts from his fingertips and it occurs to him that they could be infused with some superheated light to generate a respectable amount of damage upon... Huh.

Maybe if he tried re-calibrating the...

Far away, at the back of the LeTourneau diesel-electric transmission overland train, unbeknownst to everyone there, the fourteenth member of the combine harvester casualties club steps from the shadows. In his fingerless gloved hands is a bowl of stew, and at his sides are two gold-plated desert eagles. The stew was honestly really good. Around him, the winter chill seems repelled by the sheer badassery of his trenchcoat, as if mother nature herself was hesitant to lay a claw on the pure, unbridled, absolute sex appeal of this mysterious, monstrous hunk of a man. Hundreds of yards away, the three women at the scene shiver, but not from the cold.

Shi Taberu Hito has arrived.

>>3921336
I was, thirty seconds ago.

>>3921388
A legend is born, all hail the protagonist!

>>3921252
I can teach him. Im a decent shot tho average only on pistols

>>3921402
Yes but did you consider the fact that it would be funnier not to?

>>3921402
I'd be willing to accept your help.

>>3921392
Hey op, how long did we walk on foot and how long do we have on the train?

"If we're all done eating then I'd say it's time to get this thing rolling."

>>3921408
True dat
>>3921415
Im willing to teach you if you give one of the guns to me. I cant really teach you dual wielding since thats too high of a bar for me

You gotta do your badass introduction man. A hero of your caliber needs to make an impression.

Organize a fuel gathering party and use the strength of my other versions to haul more wood.

Guys, i have an idea how we can make profit out of the train. How bout we offer services of a caravan. Safe and fast travel and the large amount of materials we can haul between settlements is large at best. What do you guys think?

I've arrived your savior in this cold desolate wastland. I will be the sheperd to guide you sheeple out of this frozen hell. For I am Shi Taberu hito or as you westerns might say THE DEATH EATER.

>>3921418
You walked for a week and a half from the ruins of the temple, and according to my calculations, the city of Caelkirk is nine more days away. Because a freight train's average speed is forty-nine miles per hour, I'll fiat the LeTourneau diesel-electric transmission overland train can manage thirty miles per hour in the snow, cutting your journey down to roughly two days.

>>3921419
I'm sorry to say, but the desert eagles only last five minutes when they're more than ten feet from Shi. Otherwise he'd be able to spam them infinitely, but there's still nothing preventing him from summoning one for every shot he takes, then throwing it over his shoulder.

>>3921415
I know it's your decision to make, but like >>3921423 said, you have a glorious mantle to live up to.

>"O-oh, it's extremely rare. You have no idea. So many sorcerers come- came into the temple with horrific burns and some were even missing fingers or eyes but you..." The priestess shifts on one leg, trying and failing to hide the rising blush in her cheeks. "You're s-so talented..."

"Why thank you, you're quite impressive your self." I let out with a small chuckle. "We should talk more once I'm free, I'll be helping with fuel gathering. Oh!? How crass of me. I never received your name Mrs.?" I smile down at her.

I can't wait for Shi to blow you out of the water with his sheer badassery and raw sexual energy.

I'll grab an axe and help process the wood so it can be burned. Finally this boyscout shit can get some use.

Fucking rip Dante. You can try to impress the girls with your nerd shit but at the end of the day they all go home with Chad.

>>3921528
You have my condolences for being cucked. Not to sound rude but you probably should have expected this considering the priestess is the only woman that isn't a hold hag and Shi has harem protagonist and edge lord.

I ought to clarify because it's a little vague, Chase has managed to harvest one-hundred and sixty pounds of lumber altogether. At this rate, he could outpace a sawmill.

>>3921526
Are you seriously going to ruin your blade to cut wood when there are axes available? Do you really think that trains swordsmanship?
