You wake up. The sun is rising, the birds are singing: it's another new day in your tribe. You grab your spear and leave your hut to prepare to go hunting.

Your name is Hyenus, and you're a gnoll, the mightiest warrior race in the world, according to gnolls. However, your people don't see you as a mighty warrior: in fact, you're the Omega of the pack, the weakest of them all. Hell, even a goblin could beat you up easily. So embarrasing...

You've always been an ambitious man. Your dream is to become the leader of your people, and show them you're strong! And today, you've decided to stop fantasizing about it. You'll start WORKING towards your goal!

There is only one problem; you don't know where to begin.

Breakfast can wait, you want to spar with Daitzsa first. It'll be good for warming up and start honing your miserable skills before you set off into the deep woods.

On your way to your friend's hut, you stumble upon Rurk, one of the strongest warriors of the tribe, second only to the leader. As usual, he blocks your path, looks at you up and down, then speaks in a commanding voice. "Hey weakling, I ain't feelin' to go hunting today, so you better bring me something to eat. This time I don't want a rabbit, I want you to bring me a fat, juicy BOAR:"

"A boar?!" you respond, surprised. You're used to hunt rabbits, and deers ocassionally... but this is the first time he asks you to hunt a boar. Those animals are dangerous!

"Yeah" he says. "Got a problem with that?" He closes the distance between you and him, trying to appear taller and intimidate you.

"No, Rurk" you say. "I'll do as you ask." You agree to his request, not because you were intimidated, but because you will never grow as a warrior if you stick to easy prey. It doesn't matter if boars are dangerous - you will take the risk, and if you succeed, then you'll prove to everyone -and yourself- that you're stronger than you look!

Rurk sighs. "Off you go, then. Try not to get yourself killed, because then I'd have to go and hunt the boar myself." He pushes you out of his way and goes to meet with his friends who are all reunited around the bonfire.

You continue to Daitzsa's hut. You see her preparing to head to the woods. "Hi, Hyenus!" she greets you. "I see Rurk was bothering you again, eh?"

"He asked me to hunt a boar" you respond. Daitzsa opens her eyes and mouth in surprise. "A boar?! That's too much for you to handle! What was he thinking?!"

"It's fine" you respond. "It's about time I become a better warrior. If I keep hunting rabbits and deers, I'll never improve. That's why I want to ask you, Daitzsa, if we could spar a little before heading off to hunt, so I can warm up and train my skills?"

Daitzsa is silent for a few seconds, then smiles. "I'm glad to know you want to become stronger, Hyenus!" she responds. "It always saddens me when I see the others mistreating you. I don't want to hurt you, though, so let's use wooden spears". She goes inside her hut and comes out with two of them, handing you one and keeping the other for herself.

"Let's practice offense" you tell Daitzsa. "Great!" she responds. "Go ahead and attack me however you want. I'll try to block and evade your attacks. Try to hit me once at least!"

You ready your spear and lunge at Daitzsa. You think it's a decent attack, but Daitzsa simply stands there and swiftly evades it right before it connects! "Not bad, Hyenus. But you've got to do better than that if you want to defeat me!"

"Come on, try again! I'll block your next attack!"

(Rolling for Daitzsa's BLOCK. I'll pick Best of 3 for her. Your roll has to be greater than Daitza's in order to successfully connect your attack.)

(BLOCK is easier to increase than DODGE and has a higher chance of succeeding, but you may still suffer damage depending on the tool you're using for blocking, the force of the incoming attack, and your Strength. Good judgement will help in future battles when you have to decide if it's better to DODGE or BLOCK.)

That's it! You'll give it your all! You hold your spear firmly and lunge at Daitzsa with even faster movements than before, but she manages to stand her ground, parrying your attack with great skill!

"Woah, that was close!" she says nervously. "You're doing pretty good today, Hyenus. Let's do this one more time, and then it'll be my turn to attack!"

You realize you've been attacking her without any thought. Maybe following a strategy will improve your odds?

You've got an idea. You approach Daitzsa, then do a swift movement, pretending you're going to kick her right leg! She seems distracted by this, and then you quickly change direction and direct your attack towards her left leg! However, you fail to be fast enough, and she nimbly dodges your attack! "That was a nice move, Hyenus! I almost fell for it, but you were too slow! Ha ha ha!"

She stops laughing, and her face turns serious. "Now it's my turn... don't worry, I'll try not to be too rough!" she says, then proceeds to lunge at you! You assume a defensive stance, but your fight is interrupted by a thundering voice. "DAITZSA!!! WHY ARE YOU SPARRING WITH THAT GNOLLET?!!!"

Daitzsa halts her attack as soon as she hears the voice, and turns her face to her husband, Gunyx. "I-I'm sorry, honey... I was just warming up a little before we go hunting..." She looks afraid, and you know she has a good reason to be: Gunyx is the most violent and bloodthirsty warrior in the tribe. He is abusive towards everyone, except Rurk and the leader, but only because he knows they're stronger than him.

Gunyx approaches Daitzsa and grabs her shoulders, looking at her directly in the eyes. "I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU ARE FRIENDS WITH THIS WIMP, BUT I WILL *NEVER* ALLOW YOU TO SPAR WITH HIM! I PROHIBIT IT!!! I AM YOUR PARTNER - IF YOU WISH FOR A FIGHT, THEN YOU WILL ASK ME, NOT HIM!!!"

Daitzsa lets out a nervous laugh, which seems to anger Gunyx. "YOU BETTER NOT ME HIDING SOMETHING FROM ME, DAITZSA..." he says furiously. "IF I EVER FIND OUT YOU ARE CHEATING ON ME, I'LL-"

"G-Gunyx, please, you know you're the only man in my eyes!" Daitzsa quickly interruepts him. "I would never pick another mate, let alone... let alone a guy like him!" - she points at you. "I-I was just sparring with him out of pity, that's all!"

Gunyx looks at you up and down, then approaches you and grabs you by your throat, slightly squeezing it. "DIRTY OMEGA, HEED MY WORDS: IF I SEE YOU TRAINING WITH MY WIFE AGAIN, I'LL DESTROY EVERY BONE IN YOUR BODY AND LEAVE YOUR BODY TO ROT IN THE FOREST!!!"

After saying those words, he releases the hold on your throat and you drop to the ground. Gunyx and Daitzsa then proceed to depart to the woods.

For your entire life, you've been humilliated for being weak, even in worse ways than this one. Daitzsa, your only friend, only hangs out with you because she takes pity on you, but had never confessed it until now, in fear of getting beaten up by her brute mate. Nobody else cares about your life - if it wasn't for her, you'd be completely alone. The only person who truly loved you was your mom, but she was captured and enslaved by humans years ago when you were a kid. Your dad doesn't give a damn about you, he just calls you an embarrassment everyday and pretends you aren't his son.

One day, you'll prove to everyone you CAN be strong if you train adequately. You KNOW you are capable of more if you put your mind to it. You have been slacking all this time, but now you will correct your mistake. You promise.

Your thoughts are interrupted by your growling stomach. You decide to halt your meditation. Your goal is clear: you must become stronger.

You head to the hunting grounds. You remember Rurk asked you to bring him a boar, so you'll start looking for one.

... ... ...

It's only a matter of minutes before you find a boar, and to your surprise, it's sleeping! You've never seen one taking a nap in the middle of nowhere, it's far too exposing. Maybe it's just dumb. Around you, there's a bunch of deathcap mushrooms and you just saw a rabbit a few seconds ago. It didn't see you, but you know where it is.

The boar looks incredibly big and fat, even for its own species. A normal boar already poses a big threat to you, so you tell yourself to be careful regarding how you approach the situation.

You try to approach the boar silently, but you accidentally end up making noise by stepping on some dry leaves, slightly startling the animal. Fortunately, it doesn’t wake up.

You’re just a few centimeters away from the boar. It’s not yet aware of your presence, but it seems that it’ll wake up soon as a consequence of all the noise. You’re very nervous, plenty of sweat is coming on your head. This animal could easily kill you in a straightforward fight! You must manage to disable it in one hit, but your hands are shaking, and your grip on the spear is loosening, which will undoubtedly affect your precision. But you’re already here, next to the creature, so you might as well give your best...

"Calm down, Hyenus..." your inner voice says. You must do this with a clear mind. You cannot risk failing just because you lost composure. You close your eyes, take a deep breath and relax your muscles.

Several seconds pass by, and you feel much better. Your hands have stopped shaking. Now you're ready to give the animal the fatal blow!

DAMN IT!!! You blew it! The boar growls loudly, preparing to charge at you and impale you with its tusks!

Well, it looks like there's only one way out of this. You must think of your attacks carefully if you are to survive! You'll attempt to stab the creature's eyes - if you manage to blind it then you've got this battle won for sure!

Hyenus's roll result is 81.

Rolling 2d50 - 5 for the boar's ATTACK (+20 Agility, -25 Boar didn't choose to EVADE). Best of 3.

If your roll is 10-20 points greater than the boar's roll, your attack connects partially. If it's greater than the boar's roll by over 20 points, your attack fully connects. If neither cases are true, the boar evades your attack.

(When you're being attacked during a turn, you can choose to ATTACK instead of BLOCK or EVADE, but it will always incur a -25 penalty to your roll. If you succeed, you essentially get a free attack on the enemy. In this case, since the boar choose to ATTACK while you were attacking it, it will get two attacks on you.)

You quickly sidestep to the boar's blind side, leaving it confused and disoriented as he loses sight of you. With this, you easily manage to avoid getting impaled by the animal's tusks!

It looks bewildered looking around for its predator. The boar refuses to give up, and as soon as it spots you, it lunges at you again! The simple animal knows only one movement - this is easily exploitable. You can feel victory at the reach of your hand!

I can read, we're going to get a -25 to attack if it attack the same time he attack.

Hyenus will go in front of a tree, then evade the boar's lunge so it runs into it.

>>4341485
Choosing to Attack while being attacked is basically choosing to Evade with a -25 penalty, but as as a trade-off you get a free attack on the enemy after his turn ends. I hope this is clear, if you guys have any doubts just ask.

The animal's repetitive attacks give you an idea! You run as fast as you can to the nearest tree, You turn back and see the boar lunging at you with pure wrath in its eyes!

You wait for the right moment... then quickly jump out of the way! Your plan has worked flawlessly - the boar ran into the tree, and not only it got stunned by the impact - its tusks also got stuck! In an act of desperation, the animal tries to free itself, but to no avail. It is completely, utterly defenseless against you.

You did it. Not only have you won against a boar in a fair fight - you won against a BIG one, all thanks to your brains. This may not be an amazing feat for the greatest warriors of your tribe, but it is a HUGE progress for you, and you'll most surely gain lots of respect for it. You are happy!

Now you must decide what to do.

You didn't realize before due to the ectasy of victory, but your right leg is bleeding a bit. It seems that the boar's tusks grazed you when you evaded its lunge, but it's nothing to worry about. This wound is definitely worth the prize!

The boar cannot do anything against you while stuck to the tree. You hold your spear firmly, aim to the creature's neck, and stab it with all your might. Its hide is tough, but you manage to penetrate through. The boar begins to spasm, and soon enough it stops moving.

After making sure it's 100% dead, you try to dislodge the boar's tusks off the tree, but they're too firmly stuck. You just end up grabbing a big rock and, with some effort, you smash them into pieces, freeing the animal's corpse. All you have to do now is carry the boar and...

... ... ...

Holy Mackerel, this animal is HEAVY! You're doing your best to lift it up, but it's impossible! It must weigh over a hundred kilos! You start thinking of what to do, but you're soon distracted by a familiar figure between the bushes: it's Diana, one of your fellow tribe members. She seems to be minding her own business, looking for her own prey. You think she hasn't noticed you yet.

Diana isn't your friend, and she does attempt to avoid your company just like the others, but you don't recall her ever humilliating you. She simply pretends you don't exist. Maybe you can try talking to her, and ask for help to carry your fresh game back to the tribe?

"Nope" you whisper to yourself. You don't trust Diana, she doesn't look like she'd be willing to help you. And even if she does she'd probably take the credit for the kill. You have a better idea in mind: you'll show the boar's head to your tribe as a trophy!

You use your spear to cut the animal's head off, then you grab it with your left hand. It weighs considerably, but you can carry it without problems now that the rest of the body isn't a factor. You also cut one of its legs and carry it in your armpit to keep as an intact meal, just in the very unlikely case that other animals come to nibble on the boar's corpse during the few minutes you're gone.

You run back to the tribe as fast as you can, excited to show your achievement to the others. You see the circle of warriors reunited around the bonfire. Rurk is among them. They turn their heads to you when they hear you coming and immediately notice what you're holding in your left hand. "Hey guys!" you shout, "Check this out! I killed a big boar on my own!"

The warriors are surprised at first, but the look on their faces quickly turns skeptical. "YOU killed a boar?" says Rurk. "I wasn't expecting you'd actually be able to pull that off, y'know. And you say it was a *big* one? I don't know... it sounds like a lie."

"Come and check it out yourself, Rurk" you reply. "The boar weighs too much, so I was unable to carry it back here. I was hoping I could get some help." The warriors look at each other, and you hear them muttering. Half a minute passes by, and Rurk finally speaks. "Alright, Hyenus. I think you're full of bull, but we'll give you the benefit of doubt. Show us where the "big" boar is."

You lead the group back to where the boar is. You can already imagine the look on their faces when they see what you did. They never expected much from you, but today you'll show them you're more valuable than they think! You'll gain their respect, and then they'll start treating you better!

You arrive at the location, and to your surprise you see Diana standing next to the boar. "Oh, hi Hyenus!" she says. "So you were the one who cut off the head and leg off this boar I hunted recently?

What... what the hell?

Diana continues speaking. "I killed this boar then went away for a moment to take a piss behind that tree over there, then I came back and saw that its head and one of its legs were gone! So it was you, Hyenus... You should be ashamed!"

Rurk slaps the back of your head. "I knew it! You're so desperate for recognition that you resort to stealing prey from others! Freakin' pathetic! Now you'll have to bring me TWO boars, and I want them within an hour, or else I'll beat you up badly!"

The other warriors are giving you a look of disgust and dissappointment. "What a loser" you hear someone say among them. "If this happens again, we should ask the leader to exile him" you hear another voice.

Wait but we’re carrying the boar’s head. So we could’ve just stabbed its eye after we stole it, according to her. Doesn’t prove anything. But yeah the injury is evidence if there’s blood on the horn.

>>4343338
>>Give up and go hunt two boars for Rurk

>>4343349
+1 but add that how unlikely it is that we could cut off it's head and leg(and smash its horns, which is very loud) whilst she's taking a piss just over there, her big gnoll ears would have surely noticed it and then she would have stopped a lowly one such as ourselves. Rather, we killed it and she squatted here to take the credit because she thought she could get away with claiming our kill, whilst we were gone getting people to carry the big beast.
>>
>>4343368

i think we can do it

Hyenus will keep in mind the following points to prove that Diana is lying:
1) ask her what the head looks like, what injuries does it have.
2) ask her what happened to the boar's tusks, maybe she doesn't know they're still stuck in the tree
3) ask her why her spear isn't bloody like ours
4) point out how unlikely it is that we could cut off the boar's head and leg AND loudly smash its tusks (in case she knows they got stuck in a tree and lies by saying she made the boar get stuck in it) while she was taking a piss just over there, she would've heard you and stopped you

"Diana is lying!" you shout aloud. "She wants to claim my kill, I can prove it!" you shout aloud. The warriors stop gossiping, turning silent and staring at you with dubious eyes. Diana smiles at you. "Hyenus, stop it. This is just sad."

You don't let your tribe's distrust and Diana's hypocrisy discourage you, and you continue speaking. "Diana, what does the boar's head look like? What injuries does it have? If you fought it, you should know!" you ask while keeping the head out of her view. She wasn't expecting that question - her face goes blank for a moment. "Uhh... I think I, uh... no, I don't remember injuring the head at all."

"WRONG!!!" you shout. You hold the head up for everyone to view. "Look at the right eye, it's bloody! I managed to stab it right here during our fight!" you say while pointing at the injury. The gnolls approach and look at it closely, but they still look skeptical. "This is a very precise stab. It's hard to believe you did this", one of them says.

One of the gnoll warriors, Tyrorg, steps forward and claps to get everyone's attention, then speaks. "Guys, come on! Diana is a true warrior, she would never steal prey from a fellow warrior. Hyenus, it's obvious you stabbed the boar's eye on the way to the tribe. It doesn't prove your innocence, in fact it just shows you're a scheming bastard!"

The other warriors nod at his remarks. "Uh, yeah, Hyenus. That's very dishonorable of you" Diana says. You notice she's trying to hold her laughter back.

They immediately sided with their own friend... You still have more ideas in mind to prove she's a liar, but you're afraid they might not be willing to listen. "Diana!" you shout again. "The boar's tusks are broken. What can you say about it?!"

"Hmm... they got stuck in that tree over there while we were fighting" Diana retorts, pointing at the tree. "I couldn't dislodge them so I smashed the tusks with a rock. Why do you ask? You don't know what to come up with anymore, do you?"

Damn it! You were hoping she didn't notice the tusks. You only have two points left to bring up, but the warriors look tired of your insistence. In their minds, you are nothing but a weakling, an outsider to their circle trying to slander one of their own. But if you give up, you'll lose whatever little respect you had before this incident, so you'll keep trying to prove that you are the one true warrior and Diana is the liar.

"Your spear." you say in a calm tone. "If you killed the boar, your spear should be bloody. But it's clean. Now look at my spear, everybody - it's covered in blood. You know what it means? It means *I* KILLED THE BOAR, YOU LYING BI-"

"I licked the blood off!" she interrupts you. "I like the taste of fresh blood. You could say I'm a 'bloodthirsty' warrior. Ha!" Most of the warriors laugh at her lame joke, but you see one among them raise a suspicious eyebrow. It seems that not everyone is being swayed by her moronic excuses, which gives you hope. Once the laughter stops, you proceed to explain your last point.

"One last thing!" you say. "Just consider how UNLIKELY it is that I managed to cut off the boar's head and one of its legs while she was pissing just over there. Do you really think I would be fast enough to do it and sneak away before she was finished?!"

The gnolls are silent, looking at each other. For the first time, they seem to be considering your words, which is amazing. Diana notices she's losing credibility, and quickly attempts to defend herself, sounding genuinely annoyed. "A woman *always* takes her time when relieving herself, Hyenus. Maybe if you ever had a mate and got laid, you'd know that!" The gnoll warriors burst out in laughter. They don't stop until a full minute had passed.

"I'm hungry. And bored." one of the warriors say. "Who cares about who hunted the boar, this is a waste of time."

"Yeah" Diana says. "Hyenus, stop being such a crybaby, there are many boars to hunt and you're making a big fuss over this one. Guys, can you help me carry *my* game to the tribe?."

"Alright" Tyrorg says. "But you gotta share it with us, there's no way you're eating it all by yourself,"

"Of course!" she responds. "I'm always willing to share my prey with my good friends. Let's go!"

The gnoll warriors help Diana carry the boar, They walk away, ignoring your presence completely. But before leaving, Rurk reminds you of what he ordered you to do. "Hey little liar, remember I want TWO boars within an hour. You better not be late."

Probably the safety that comes from being in a tribe, and our previous inability to fend for ourselves (which should be changing soon hopefully). Ideally we don't stick around with these guys for long. Maybe we could Daitzsa and take her with us, but that might incite the ire of the group, so we'd probably have to wait 'till we're really powered up to do that.

This is the first time in your life you achieve something a real hunter would do, and you were immediately brought down for it!

Boars are plentiful in the hunting grounds. You usually stumble upon one every 5 minutes during other days. But today, you were unlucky. You have found one recently, but it took you a considerable amount of time - you estimate about 20 minutes. You're relatively far away from the tribe, and carrying a boar will slow you down, so you don't have much time left before Rurk decides to beat you up for taking too long.

The boar you found is on the bottom of a small cliff. It hasn't noticed you yet. It isn't big and fat like the first boar, so you think you may be able to carry it back to the tribe with some effort.

Now, you must decide how to approach the situation.

You land on top of the boar at the same time you feel your spear satisfyingly getting lodged into the animal's back, reaching deep into its flesh!

BOAR HP: 10/60 (-50 HP, inflicted Massive Bleed)

"SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!" The boar panics and does a sudden movement which drops you off its back, then it runs away through the bushes with the spear still lodged into its body!

You know it cannot go far enough in its gravely injured state - it is doomed to perish very soon, if not in a matter of seconds. The boar left behind a trail of blood, which leads to a part of the forest you've never explored before.

You follow the blood trail for one, two, three minutes... and you realize the animal struggled for longer than you expected. You're beginning to worry a little that you may be venturing too far into unknown territory.

Just when you started considering returning to the tribe, you pass through a bush and see something that delights you: it's the boar, and its body is lying on the grass, devoid of life!

You succeeded again! Fighting boars is much easier than you expected. What were you so afraid of? You feel you're starting to get a handle of how this stuff is done, how real hunters fight. You are on your way to become a true warrior. Slowly, but surely!

You dislodge the spear off the boar. It was deeply embedded into the animal's back, so it took you some effort. It makes you feel strong to know you're capable of maiming a strong creature in such a way. Now all you have to do is carry it and-

... ... ... ... ...

You have a feeling of being watched.

You turn around, and to your surprise you see a creature that you haven't seen in many, many years: it's a dogbold, the most delicious variant of kobold to ever exist!

There are many of them observing you from behind the bushes, looking afraid. You have no idea of what they're doing here, but you guess it's their territory, and you're invading it, but they're too weak and pacific to do anything about it. Even you, an Omega gnoll, can beat one of them up with ease.

You start drooling as you stare at the fearful creatures. You still remember that one time you ate a dogbold when you were a kid. Your mom brought one home, and shared it with you. Its yummy, soft meat was exquisite, divine, completely out of this world. Not even a boar's meat could compare. Dogbolds are any gnoll's favorite food!

As much as you really, REALLY desire to taste a dogbold... you cannot ignore how suspicious the situation is. Why would they stand there next to you, a gnoll of all creatures, without running away? They may be weak and peaceful, but that doesn't mean they're dumb. They're definitely hiding something, and you won't fall for it. Cause you're smart. You got big brain muscles.

After you manage to keep your appetite under control, you decide it's time to scare these little creatures away. You clear your throat. "Ahem".

The dogbolds are terrified by your powerful YIP, and they immediately start running away for their lives, some of them pathetically tripping during their escape. You laugh at the scene, but also feel a bit sad that you see part of yourself in these creatures. They're weak and easy to abuse... just like you. But that is about to change soon.

You wonder what they had in mind in case you decided to attack them, but it looks like you don't have to worry about that now. Now it's time to carry the boar back to the tribe and hand it to Rurk - you've still got to hunt a second one, so you'll have to hurry up before the hour passes.

You put all your effort to lift up the boar and carry it on your shoulders, then you follow the blood trail back to where you impaled the animal. It was easy to find your way back to the tribe from there. Although the trip was difficult and very straining for your body, especially since you're not used to intense physical activity, you did your best to keep up and the boar's weight barely slowed you down. You estimate it took you about 20 or 25 minutes to return to the tribe.

You see Rurk, Diana, Tyrorg and the others chilling around the bonfire, enjoying the game you hunted with your own hands. The sight fills you with anger, but you suppress your feelings. "Look who's back!" Rurk says when he notices you. All the warriors stare at you and the prey you're holding in your arms. You approach Rurk and drop your hunted prey in front of him. "Took your damn time, didn't ya'? You've got only 10 minutes to bring me a second boar!"

"Speaking of which..." Tyrorg joins in. "Whose boar did you steal from now, Hyenus?" Rurk, Diana and the others start laughing.

You've had enough of hearing them talk crap about you for something you never did, so you walk away without saying a word. The others keep laughing behind your back. "Chill, Hyenus! It was just a joke!" you heard Tyrorg yell. "No wonder you have no friends, you're humourless! Ha ha ha!"

Sometimes you just want to say "Screw this" and leave the tribe forever, but you know that would be a silly thing to do. These people are all you have in your life, even if they treat you like trash most of the time. Besides, they hate you because you are weak and a slacker - they've learned to expect nothing but the worst from you.

If you work your way up from the bottom, they'll realize you have changed... You made yourself a promise, and you will not back down. You'll remind it to yourself a hundred times if you must!

You go to the hunting grounds, looking for another boar to hunt for Rurk.

You're really hungry, as you haven't had your breakfast yet. But you must find another boar soon, or else Rurk is gonna thrash you. You search as fast as you can in the hunting grounds...

... ... ...

About 5 minutes fly by, and you end up stumbling upon two goblins who have recently hunted a boar. They are invading your tribe's territory, stealing your prey! You are hiding behind a bush, unspotted by them. One of the greenies is dislodging a spear that got embedded into the animal, while the other chews on its flesh, devouring the raw meat. Both of them are armed.

You think of how to approach the situation...

You won't let the dirty greenies get away with this! They're taking away a boar that belongs to you! Two versus one is a disadvantage for you, though, so it'll be best to do a stealthy approach and backstab the spear-wielding greenie, then kill the other in a one-versus-one.

You carefully observe the two goblins, making sure you're out of their view, waiting for the right moment to leave your hiding place. Once you see that you're not in their line of sight, you quickly leave the bush behind and attempt to approach them in silence.

As you're about to reach the spear-wielding goblin, your heavy breathing betrays you at the last moment, and the greenie is alerted by your presence! But you're so close to the creature that it's not worth running away: you lunge at the goblin, hoping it doesn't react to your attack in time!

You lunge at the goblin with lightning speed! It's unable to react in time, and your spear hits its chest with full force, coming through his back and impaling him!

You lift him up in the air. Hot damn, you're ROCKING it today! You've never had so much action in your life! THIS is what it feels to be a warrior!

"The weak should fear the strong" you tell the greenies, though the impaled goblin's lifeless corpse cannot respond. You quickly dislodge the spear off the dead goblin and ready your weapon to engage in battle with the remaining one... but you see that it hasn't grabbed its spear. It is cowering in fear, unwilling to fight you.

You approach the scared goblin to see what's up with him. "NOOOOOOOOO!!! PLEASE DON'T KILL ME!!! PLEEEEEEASEEEE!!!"

"This is what you get for stealing game in our territory!" you reply. "You knew the risks, greenie!" The goblin is so scared that it begins to cry, you see tears raining down his cheeks. You find it pathetic that even with a weapon at hand, he chose to give up and implore mercy.

"I-I HAD NO IDEA!!! I SWEAR!!!" the goblin continues. "W-we're not from around here! Tyler and I are exiled goblins from a tribe in the mountains... we went to this forest to find food and live in peace, away from the humans outside who seek to enslave us all! We're not p-part of any territory!

You take a moment to think of what to do with the crying goblin, and eventually decide that it's not worth killing him. There would be no honor in such an act. It would be a waste of time and energy, and you'd learn nothing from it...

... or at least, that's what you want to tell yourself, because other warriors from your tribe would be happy to destroy the greenie if they were in your place. You all love violence for the sake of it: it's ingrained in your gnoll nature, and it's greatly valued. The more bloodthirsty you are, the greater warrior you can be... and yet, for the first time in your life, you feel a faint sense of mercy for another creature, something that is deeply troubling you.

Your thoughts are interrupted by the sobbing goblin. "Let me go... please..."

... Fine. Whatever. You don't even care. All you want to do is carry the boar back to the tribe and be done with your task. "Go away" you tell the goblin. "You're not worth using my spear on!" The goblin stands up and runs away, disappearing though the bushes. You will try to forget about the fact you spared a greenie, something a true warrior would never do.

You try focusing on your current task at hand, but your stomach is growling. You're very hungry.

You're too hungry, and the boar looks fresh and delicious. You crouch and take a big bite of its back. The juicy meat fills your cheeks. Yummy! This animal is tasty, even when eaten raw! It helps you appease your desire to fill your belly.

It's time to carry the boar back to the tribe. You lift the corpse up and put it on your shoulders. Carrying it is much easier compared to the first boar, this one weighs less. You begin your trip back to the tribe, trying to walk as fast as you can as you're running out of time.

Some combat reminders:

1) BLOCK actions train HP, Strength and your Block skill. The chance of a successful BLOCK is affected by weapon / shield skill, Block skill, and Agility. You might still suffer damage after a successful BLOCK depending on your Strength, the force of the incoming attack, and what tool you use to block with, if not your bare hands.

2) EVADE actions train Agility and your Dodge skill. The chance of a successful EVADE is affected by your Agility and your Dodge skill. Evading attacks generally means you avoid all damage, but it's less likely to succeed than blocking attacks.

3) You can input a write in for each combat action, which may incur a bonus or penalty to your roll.

It is done. The goblin is dead, and the unappetizing flesh on his throat and face have been devoured by you. Even though the meat was bitter, you enjoyed it like no other meal you've ever had. Not because of the taste, but because you asserted your dominance on this creature. You could feel the power surging through you. the blood of a gnoll warrior flowing in your veins as you chewed on the goblin until it stopped struggling. You have awakened a primal abiltity to connect yourself with your feral side, and this has made you stronger than ever.

Now you understand why your tribe sees mercy as weakness: it is useless. It makes you vulnerable to being backstabbed. You will NEVER show mercy to a goblin again.

(You're not bloodthirsty anymore)

As you contemplate the corpse lying on the grass, you suddenly feel throbbing pain in your torso. The spear is still stuck in your body. You feel weaker with every passing moment as blood drips from your wound.

Fair point but we only have five minutes, tops.

>>4348036
I think if we pull that spear out we are going to make the bleeding worse.
Question at the QM: can we howl to bring our pack here? We got another boar and killed two gobs that should be enough to gain at least some respect and they could help us get patched up / bring us back to camp
>>
>>4348036
Retards pulling out the spear will make us bleed more. It's basic medical stuff. The spear is stopping major bleeding

It's uncommon for gnolls to howl, some are more receptive to them while others don't even acknowledge them as a call. But you can try and see if it brings your pack here.

Hyenus won't pull the spear out, he'll cut the goblin's ear as proof of his achievement, and howl to see if his tribe comes to his aid.

Gonna roll a tiebreak to see if Hyenus carries the boar back to the tribe or returns without it in case howling doesn't work. 1 means you carry the boar, 2 means you go without it.

Hyenus will take a deep breath and attempt to do something he never did before: howling to call his tribe for help.

Your feral rage is gone, and in your injured state, it is replaced by a feeling of being defenseless and lonely. You want to be with your pack right now, even if you're not liked by them. They make you feel safe.

This feeling travels from your heart to your throat, and by pure instinct, you channel it into a long-forgotten sound you made when you were a child and lost your mother to the humans.

"AwwoooOOOOOOOOoooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"

Once you finish your primal howl, you realize you just called your tribe for help. You hope they realize it is you who is howling, and they care enough to come, at least a little bit.

... Well, they MIGHT be coming. But you can't just stand here hoping that is the case. You can feel the blood in your wound dripping, slowly weakening you - you need to get to the tribe fast to get the shaman's medical aid.

You carefully crouch and grab your spear, then cut off one of the goblin's ears as a trophy of your feat. You glance at the boar; there's no way you can carry it back to the tribe in your current state. Even if you could try, it'd slow you down a lot, so you'll have to leave it here and hope Rurk understands the situation.

As you begin your trip back home with your spear in one hand at the goblin's ear in the other...

HP: 7 / 24 (-1 HP, Minor bleeding)

You hear a noise coming from the north. Someone is approaching, or more specifically, running to your location. Does that mean that your pack heard your call, and they're coming to help you?

You wait a few seconds, and from the bushes emerges a warrior whose presence brings you great reassurance: it's Daitzsa. She heard your howling, knew you needed help, and didn't hesitate to come.

"Hyenus!" she yells. She notices the spear lodged in your belly. "B-by Gnolrek! What happened to you?! Did you get in a fight with that goblin?!" She crouches and shows you her back. "Quick, hop on! I'll carry you to the tribe!"

You try to hop on Daitzsa's back, but the spear stuck in your belly gets in the way, so she ends up carrying you like a baby. You can hear in your mind the laughs and insults you'll receive when your pack sees you, so you quickly make your friend a request. "Thank you for helping me, Daitzsa, I always knew you'd be the first to come to my aid. But please, let me down when we're close to the tribe... I don't want the others to see me like this."

Daitzsa lifts an eyebrow. "You have a spear lodged in your body, and you're worried of what the others will say? It's clear you lost too much blood and aren't thinking clearly. Please, don't talk, just close your eyes and rest while I take care of you."

You insist. "I don't want to be called a weakling. I cannot deal with it anymore, Daitzsa. Let me down for the last part to the tribe, please!" Your friend gazes at your serious expression, then nods. "Fine... but if I see you're having trouble walking, I'll carry you again and you'll have to deal with it." You nod at her words.

Daitzsa and you begin the trip back home. You tell your friend of your achievements in full detail: how you killed the two boars and the two goblins, how Diana took credit for your kill, how you scared off a group of dogbolds, and how you let loose your feral side to become much stronger and bloodthirsty. At first, she tells you to be quiet and not spend energy speaking, but as your tale progresses, she seems to become more interested in what you have to say, smiling at your words and nodding every few sentences.

However, you quickly notice that your friend is distracted. She doesn't ask any questions and just smiles and nods without saying anything. Daitzsa is always honest with you, she would never indulge or compliment you if she didn't mean it. But this time, you're not sure if her interest is real, or if she's just being nice and doesn't believe a word of what you're saying.

Once you finish telling her of your achievements, Daitzsa speaks. "That was amazing, Hyenus! Congratulations!"

... That's it? Is that all she has to say? There's something off here. "You don't believe a word of what I'm saying, don't you?" you ask. She opens her mouth in surprise. "What? Yes, yes! Of course I do, Hyenus! We've known each other since we were kids, and I know you are not the lying type. It's just that something has been bugging me for a while..."

"What is it?" you ask. Daitzsa gulps and is silent for a second, then trembling words come out from her lips. "Hyenus, I... I want to apologize for what I said when Gunyx interrupted our spar. I was scared of what he'd do, and I didn't know how to appease him... When I said I felt pity on you, that was a lie. I would never do things with you out of pity! And I had plenty of fun sparing with you! I'm very, very sorry for saying those stupid words... Maybe I'm not a good friend after all..."

Whatever, it's no big deal. Daitzsa is your friend, you know she means well and you appreciate her heartfelt apology. "It's alright, don't worry about it" you tell her. "I know you just wanted to avoid trouble with your crazy husband."

Daitzsa smiles and lets out a sigh of relief. "Thank you, Hyenus. I hope you can forgive my husband too. He may act a little possesive, but I love him. He's strong and big, and a great hunter. A woman likes all that stuff, y'know. I just wish he wasn't so aggressive ALL the time. That's one of the reasons I like talking to you, it's a nice change of air."

She looks lost in her thoughts for a moment, then looks at you and smiles. "It's great how we can trust each other so much. I wouldn't talk about these things with anyone else. No wonder Gunyx is suspicious of how friendly we are to each other!"

You shrug and smile. "Anyway..." Daitzsa continues, "Know that I am surprised for all the progress you've went through in a single hour." She gives you an evil, but playful grin. "Once you recover, I want to spar with you again, and see how much you've improved. We'll do it in a hidden place where my husband doesn't find us!" You're not sure how to feel about this.

Only about 5 minutes have passed since Daitzsa found you, but it seems that you have talked for so much longer. You finally arrive home, and your friend lets you down a few meters away. You manage to walk the rest of the path with some effort. "Hmm... I never knew you were so tough" she comments, eyeing you in a odd way.

"If you don't mind, I'll leave and rejoin Gunyx before he gets angry. I would love to stay by your side, but... you know." You nod, and Daitzsa runs towards the dense woods. "Please don't overexert yourself" she says before leaving.

You go to the old shaman's hut right away to get medical aid. You find him meditating, and once you enter, he snaps out of his trance. He glances at you and opens his mouth in surprise for a moment, but his face quickly returns to its usual neutral expression. "I don't know what the hell did you get yourself into, Omega Hyenus, but that looks like a very serious wound. Sit down, I will treat you immediately."

HP: 6 / 24 (Severely Wounded)

You obey the shaman. Blood keeps dripping from your wound. Your vision is getting blurry and it's hard to keep yourself awake. Only now you realize your injury is important - you have a damn spear stuck in your body. You hope it didn't pierce any internal organs.

The warriors enter the hut. They are curious about what happened. You've still got your goblin ear in your right hand, not so much your left spear which you accidentally dropped on the way back when you felt too weak to hold it firmly. "Hyenus?" Rurk says in a worried tone you didn't expect. "What happened?"

Tyrorg just mocks you. "The dumbass probably stabbed himself accidentally!" All the warriors start laughing, except Rurk.

"You are wrong" you confidently tell Tyrorg. "This wound is the result of a battle I had with two armed goblins who were stealing game from our hunting grounds."

"Nah, you just stabbed yourself." Tyrorg says. "Why don't you admit th-"

"Shut the hell up and let him speak" Rurk interrupts him, lifting his hand and motioning him to stop. Tyrorg is taken aback by Rurk's command, but he obeys the second strongest warrior of the tribe and stays quiet. You continue telling your tale.

"While I was looking for a second boar, I stumbled upon two goblins who hunted the animal I was searching for. I was furious because this is our territory, and those dirty greenies were taking what belongs to us! Naturally, I sneaked behind one of them and impaled him so hard that my spear came right through his back, instantaneously ending his miserable life, and then I easily lifted his corpse up in the air while the other goblin stared in absolute horror!"

"Any gnoll can do that" Rurk responds. "It's not as amazing as you make it sound. But go ahead, tell us what happened afterwards."

"When I was done with the first goblin, I readied myself to battle the other one, but the coward gave up without putting a fight and asked me to spare his life!"

"And what did you do?" Rurk asks.

You won't tell the warriors you spared the goblin at first. That would give them a very bad impression of you. You quickly come up with another version of what happened. "I tried to kill the begging coward, but he ran away and disappeared through the bushes. I thought the battle was over, so I grabbed the boar and-"

"Why didn't you chase after him?" Rurk interrupts. Fortunately, you had an excuse prepared for that question. "Oh, I had to dislodge the spear off the dead boar, and I didn't have enough time to run after the goblin and return here with the prey you asked for."

"Fair enough" he responds. You continue telling your story. "So I carried the boar intending to come back here, but not even a minute had passed and I was ambushed by the same goblin, who grabbed the spear he left behind! He stabbed me right here - this is the spear he was using. It got stuck in my body."

"You were caught by surprise by a goblin?!" Tyrorg comments. "That was stupid!" You're starting to get tired of the guy's remarks.

"Indeed, that doesn't speak favorably of you" Rurk adds in. "But I will give it to you that I find it... interesting that you can still walk with that spear lodged into your body, and not complain about the pain or show fear for your life." You see Tyrorg frown. He seems to have a personal problem with you, judging from how he's constantly trying to bring your achievements down, but you're glad Rurk is acknowledging your strength.

"Yeah, this is nothing!" you say to show off, then speak of what happened afterwards. "After I got impaled, I was taken by rage. Wrath invaded me completely as I saw how the filthy creature had hurt me. So I grabbed his arms and I dug my claws deep into them, which made the goblin cry in pain and agony! His screams were so satisfactory, I wish you guys were there to hear them... but I wanted to go for the kill right away, so I opened my mouth and devoured his face and throat until the greenie stopped struggling. There was nothing left, except a bloody pulp. it was awesome!"

"So that's why your breath stinks of goblin" Rurk responds. You show the warriors the goblin ear you cut off from the corpse as proof of your deed. "Alright, but I still want to see it myself. Tell me where all of this happened." You tell the warriors that the corpses are to the east of the tribe, near the waterfall. They nod. "I'll go take a look, then" says Rurk.

"You can also find the second boar there, it should be visible in the open." you tell him, remembering you still had to bring Rurk the game he asked for. "I'll keep that in mind, Hyenus" he replies. "So, you walked all the way back here with the spear stuck in you?"

"No" you reply. "Daitzsa helped me walk here for the first part of the trip, but she returned to hunt afterwards."

Rurk nods. "Alright. We'll go check the goblin corpses. Keep in mind, Hyenus, that even if all of what you said is true, it takes more than killing a bunch of weak greenies to be a true warrior." Tyrorg shows you his tongue, mocking you in an infantile way.

The pack intends to leave the hut. You're beginning to fall asleep, but you feel you have enough energy left to tell them about your other achievements. You think these ones are a little less impressive than the goblin fight, but you guess they might still earn you more respect from the warriors.

No, that's a story for another time. You told them your biggest achievement, now it's time to rest. Your throat is dry after so much talking, but the shaman has taught your people that drinking water thins one's blood and could reopen wounds, which is a huge no in your case. You close your eyes and lie down on your left side while the old man takes care of you.

Your last ounce of energy is spent thinking about how great this day started off. You did so much in little time. You gained a new ability and became stronger, faster and more skilled than you were an hour ago, and your feats impressed Daitzsa and the others. If you keep it up, you will soon be the best gnoll warrior the world has ever seen. Your pack will hold you in high esteem, and the enemy tribes will tremble with fear when they see you marching on the battlefield. You will lead your people to victory, you will raid human villages with your pack and loot their interesting human tools, and you will be acknowledged by your god, Gnolrek, as his Champion. Those are your dreams, your goals, your greatest ambitions.

But for now, you will rest. All those things will come in time, as long as you keep working hard like you did today.

You fall asleep with a broad smile in your face.

Your instincts tell you victory is close! You attempt to evade the enemy's attack by staying on his blindside, but your bloodthirst worsens your defense - your mind is filled with thoughts of maiming the enemy, which unconsciously causes you to let your guard down! The enemy swings his spear with such precision and confidence that it's as if he wasn't blinded at all, and one of his swings eventually manages to hit you in your left shoulder, piercing it deeply!

You fall on your knees due to the imminent shock of the pain. The man speaks. "IF YOU THOUGHT YOU HAD THIS BATTLE WON BECAUSE YOU GOT A LUCKY HIT ON ME, YOU WERE WRONG, MALEVOLENT CREATURE." He lifts his damaged weapon, and prepares to attack you with all his might!

Your left shoulder is hurt, and it makes it difficult to use your spear effectively. You see the man lifting up his weapon in the air. Judging from his stance, he seems to be protecting his face from your eyestabbing technique, but he's leaving other parts of his body undefended!

There is a weak point in his defense which you can easily exploit! Despite your shoulder injury, you do your best to hold your spear firmly, and you swing your weapon at the man's abdomen!

Your precise slash hits its target, and it causes a serious wound. Unable to keep going, your enemy drops his weapon and falls on his knees, shocked by your unexpected attack... and with that, you emerge as the victor. "A sudden and anticlimactic victory" you think..

This short, unglorious battle is over. You have won against one of the strongest beings to walk this world. "Not so 'ultimate' anymore, eh?" you mock him. You were expecting far more from this human, and were dissapointed by the results and how mundane this battle was.

Or it's simply that you have become too strong for anyone to pose a real challenge to you.

The man is gasping and coughing blood. He has no energy left to fight. With only two wounds dealt to him, he cannot keep fighting. Is this truly the "ultimate" enemy that awaited you at the end of your journey? Or is there someone, something else awaiting you, and this warrior was just a distraction? Who is the *true* ultimate enemy, then? It cannot be this wimp!

Your thoughts are interrupted by the man's words, who speaks with a raspy, deep voice. Now that you see his face clearly, you realize it is full of wrinkles - he's very old. "I know my words may fall on deaf ears... but this is my only option left... I beg you, do not kill me. I know your species loves violence and war... but you also value family, tradition and loyalty to one's community... that is something you gnolls have in common with us humans."

The man coughs violently, then continues his speech. "Please... think of the pain you'd experience... if someone were to hurt those you love... that is the pain you have brought me. Does this not weigh your conscience... do my words not resonate with your heart? Please... as I would not harm those who do not harm my people, I implore that you stop your senseless slaughter... "

None of this real. The illusion is beginning to shatter, and you can feel it. "Is this a dream?" you ask the man on his knees.

He just stares at you without response. His expression is blank, emotionless. This confirms your doubts: this is all a huge lie, and it isn't actually happening. You don't care about this man anymore - all you want to do is get out of here.
.
You close your eyes, and begin to will yourself awake...

How... how long have you been asleep? Your wound has already healed!

The singing is getting louder. What exactly is going on? It's all so ominous... You need to go and take a look. You slowly stand up, evaluating your wounds and mobility. It seems that you have recovered well, though you feel a bit weak - you still have some recovering left to do.

You carefully walk outside to see what this is all about. Once you see the scene, it all clears up. Your entire tribe is gathered around the central bonfire, with the best warriors closer to the bonfire, and the scouts and other gnolls further away. This is the Ritual of Breeding, which your pack holds every once in a year when gnolls are about to enter mating season.

The shaman sacrifices a female virgin, generally an abducted human or a gnoll from an enemy tribe. This helps him establish a spiritual link with Gnolrek, the god of gnolls, who then possesses the shaman's body and begins dancing and singing to bless his followers. Everyone gathered around the bonfire enters a trance in which they follow the singing in perfect symphony.

Only Gnolrek and the shaman may interpret what the singing means, but one thing is sure: it is a blessing that makes sure all the children born in the tribe will be strong, intelligent, natural leaders, and violent to all other living creatures and enemy tribes. In other words, the ritual ensures that only great gnolls are born in our pack.

You don't see Daitzsa anywhere.

Wait, make it clear, was the sacrifice already done?
One of the choices suggests that it already happened and they already started singing, but I ask so I can be sure.
>>
>>4353963
Yes the sacrifice is already done.
>>
Oh, this means that if Daitzsa was mistaken for (or intentionally posed as) a gnoll abducted from another tribe, then it is too late, and it wouldn't matter anymore if Hyenus looks for her.
He wouldn't find her and her Gunyx is a possible suspect, but anyone can be suspected, but Gunyx has the closest connection to the victim.

>Go back to sleep

Also, even if she wasn't posed as a gnoll from another tribe and sacrificed for that ritual, she is a married female gnoll with a strong husband, and now is the mating season.

looking for her isn't a very great idea, give up, Hyenus.
>>
>>4352845
>>Go back to sleep
>>
>>4354096
Also, let's consider the fact that singing along with the ritual might disrupt it due to Hyenus's injury worsening from the effort of singing and him being late to join, and approaching the shaman during the ritual is an AWFUL idea.
This cancels the first two choices.
Staying awake and writing is not a very great idea, but it is still a good one, he should make sure nobody else reads it, at least for now, but it will slow down full recovery and this is not a very great thing.
so, this leaves us with the last two choices, and one of them (sleeping) is the most logical choice.

I would like to change my vote to
>Go back to sleep
>>
Wait Hyenus is 16 right? and Daitzsa is married, how old is she?
>>
>>4354280
Gnolls are full-grown adults at the age of 13, at which point the tribe allows marriage. If they don't die to diseases or get killed by enemy tribes, humans, goblins or get mauled by animals, they die of old age at 50-60, sometimes more in a few cases. Daitzsa is 17.

inb4 this is just another dream and turns into inception
>would explain how he slept through the spear being pulled out, unless the shaman gave him some hard drugs.
>>
Well, I think that he was indeed drugged, the shaman could simply heal such a horrible wound, of course he has some hard drugs.
If the gnolls see a painful healing as a trial of strength and self control, then it is still likely that he was drugged.
The shaman was likely convinced that he drugs Hyenus by gnolls who pity him, don't want him to display his newfound strength and self control, don't want rumors that this tribe houses weak gnolls to reach enemy tribes, or don't want him to harm himself.
>>
The suspects for encouraging the shaman to drug him, if that's the case, are:

The tribe's leader:
He probably doesn't want rumors that this tribe houses weak gnolls to reach enemy tribes.

Daitzsa:
She probably doesn't want him to harm himself.

Daitzsa's husband Gunyx, Rurk the bully, or the Diana who stole that first boar, or some other gnoll who doesn't want him to grow:
They REALLY don't want him to display his newfound strength and self control.

Gnolls who pity him:
Despite his weak social status and presence, there might be some gnolls who pity him, with ambivalent intentions behind the pity, but it is unlikely that all those who pitied him went and encouraged the shaman to drug him, maybe at most three gnolls did it out of pity, likely only one, but at most three.

Where is your friend? Could it be that she…

No! Daitzsa is fine. She couldn’t have been sacrificed because she… she’s not a virgin. And the enemy tribes couldn’t harm her, because she’s the best scout of the pack. She’d never get caught by surprise. Her senses are as sharp as a bear’s claws!

You stay quiet for a moment, hearing the singing of your pack while watching the shaman’s dance. You begin to feel a warm sensation in your body. The mating season is calling you to join your people and enter the shared trance, but the ritual has already started, and you don’t want to risk interrupting it. Besides, you don’t have a mate to breed with after the ritual ends... which kind of frustrates you.

Before the warmness grows stronger, you go back into the hut. You’ll ignore the call and try to fall asleep. As you lay on the bed and cover yourself with the animal skin, you start wondering how long you’ve been sleeping if your wound is already closed. Maybe you will ask the shaman when you wake up.

... ... ...

What the hell was that dream you had, anyway? You’ve never had one like it before. You tend to dream, yes, but never with humans… You wonder wha… what it mea…

You’ve been asleep for TWO weeks?! There are many things you need to know! You stand up and shake yourself to dry your wet fur. The shaman covers his face and berates you. “Stop splashing water on me! Get out!”

“Sorry” you say. “Also, thank you for taking care of my wounds. Can I ask you a few questions before I leave?” The old man sighs. “Make it quick. I just want to be left alone.”

You nod. “Okay. First of all, how did you pull the spear off me without waking me up? I assume someone else asked you to drug me so I wouldn’t feel pain, because I didn't.” The shaman frowns. “I'd have pulled the spear whether it hurt you or not" he says, "but I ended up drugging you by accident. Nobody asked me to do it.”

The old man points to an open bag in the ground containing a bunch of unremarkable green herbs. “See those herbs? Those are called Yamanene. I was going to force-feed you a concoction made with those to invigorate your body before pulling the spear off. But, stupid me, I mistook some special herbs I kept for myself with the Yamanene due to how similar they look, and I ended up wasting those special herbs on you.” The old man frowns even harder than before, filling his wrinkled face with even more wrinkles. “Those herbs… they were so rare. They let me connect with my inner self and give me the power to predict the future on a limited level. Your body and mind weren’t prepared for a mixture of such power.”

“So, those drugs are the reason I slept off my wound for two weeks?” you ask. “Yes. And during all this time, I had to feed you, clean you up, tend to your wound and change your loincloth whenever you peed or pooped yourself like a baby, and I’m REALLY goddamn tired of it. Your father didn't come to help me once, nor he wanted to take care of you in your own hut. Now, if that's all you wanted to know, I want you to leave now.”

Uncomfortable silence fills the air, but you break it with another question. “You know, I had a weird dream. I think those herbs may hav-

You want to be on the shaman’s good side. After all, he’s the healer of the tribe. Asking him how you could repay all he has done for you may be a good idea.

“Is there any way I can repay you for your help?” you ask him. “Leaving me in peace would be enough, omega Hyenus” the shaman responds dismissively, pointing at the hut’s exit and directing you to leave. You insist. “Come on! There must be something I can do.”

The old man looks like he’s about to throw a fit, but he takes a deep breath and gives you an actual answer this time. “You could bring me more of the special herbs I used on you. They’re called ‘kudinds”, which look very similar to yamanenes, except they are slightly redder. Hard to notice unless you have a good sight, which I don’t. The world looks grayer to me every day that passes.” He sighs.

“Alright then! Where do I find kudinds?” you ask. The shaman gives you a smile that looks insincere. “To the west, in Molkara’s territory. Good luck!”

You’re taken aback by his unexpected words. The Molkaras are one of the enemy tribes. Their warriors are not as strong as your people, but their numbers are in the hundreds, and they can never be found hunting alone. “That’s why these herbs are so special” the shaman explains. “Our valiant scouts manage to bring a few when the leader needs me to predict the outcome of a battle between tribes, but it’s no easy task. The herb is rare, even in the territory it grows in.”

“I see…” you reply. The shaman continues speaking. “I do not need to predict the future to know that you will not venture in enemy territory just to bring me some herbs, so forget about it. What you CAN do to repay me, however, is leaving right now. I’m tired of talking.”

Before you leave, you want to ask the shaman about your physical condition. Will you be able to train soon? It is very important for you to know this before you go hunting and doing any hasty movements. You also consider that it might be a good idea to explain your current goals to the old man, that you plan to become stronger and stop slacking off like you've always done. He may be willing to supervise your training, or at least recommend you a nice workout regimen.

“Just one last thing!” you tell the shaman. He looks at you with a very tired expression. You clear your throat, and speak your thoughts.

"I need to know when I can train again. I was weak enough before this injury, and idleness might have made me weaker. Perhaps I need a workout regimen that is something like three times harder than the usual for the average gnoll, and directed by your own advice, if you please could. It could be to the benefit of the tribe to have one more strong gnoll, right? I promise I will make sure it’ll be to the benefit of the tribe.

First day is only to make sure I am doing the workouts correctly and not harming myself or slacking. Then I am all on my own, that is, if you don't mind so."

The shaman stares at you in complete silence. You add in a few last words. “If you are too busy or important for that, just tell me the workout regimen you recommend and I will leave."

There is a long silence that seems to last forever... did you say something wrong? Did you finally get on the old man's nerves?

The shaman suddenly closes his eyes and starts massaging his temples while sighing. He looks like he gave up on something, though you’re not sure of what. “Hyenus” he says in a serious tone. “You have slacked off for your entire life. I don’t understand why you act as if you are worried about your physical condition now. You haven’t lost any strength, because an omega like you never had any strength to begin with.”

“That's about to change!” you tell the shaman. “I am training to become a much better warrior!” The elderly man looks at you directly in the eyes for a second. Then he speaks again with a slightly better tone. “Then know that you can start training right away, as the wound in your abdomen has closed well. Your body is weak after being physically inactive for weeks, but if you exercise well, your muscles will stop being atrophied soon. Do not ask me to supervise you – I will not waste my time training the slackiest gnoll of the pack. Until you prove your worth by slaying an ACTUAL threat - like a gnoll from an enemy tribe, THEN I'll consider training you and teaching you a few old tricks. Slaughtering two pathetic greenies isn't enough to earn my respect.”

The shaman puts his hand on your shoulder. “Now, Hyenus, I shall ask you to leave. I don’t want to repeat myself again.” You nod, and leave the hut. “Thank you for everything” were your last words before departing. The shaman ignores what you said, and he immediately assumes a meditation position as soon as you leave.

You go to your hut to retrieve a new spear. Your father isn’t there – he probably went to hunt. You don’t care anyway.

There’s not much activity going on in the tribe. It seems that everyone felt asleep late after the Ritual of Breeding, or they’re still busy making pups in their huts. You see some kids sparring with each other with wooden spears. They glance at you without much interest before returning to their game.

You feel your muscles atrophied - you must exercise your body and recover all the strength you lost while asleep. It saddens you, because you were off to a great start a few weeks ago, and this stupid wound made you lose so many days of potential training and learning... But you'll recover soon, and you'll start making progress again. You're sure of it!

You want to find Daitzsa and ask her to spar with you again. Your friend said she knew of a hidden place where her husband wouldn’t find either of you. You’re not sure if she’s in her hut or if she already went with Gunyx into the woods to hunt their breakfast, but you’ll start looking around the tribe just to make sure.

It still worries you that you hadn't seen her during the ritual...

To your great relief, you find your good friend Daitzsa on the southern part of the tribe, near the cliff’s edge. She’s staring at the horizon, admiring the view. She hasn’t noticed your presence yet. You approach and greet her.

"What?!" Daitzsa exclaims. "You just woke up and your first thought is to train with me? I don't know if I should be worried or happy!" She chuckles, and so do you. It is good to talk with your old friend again. But her black eye keeps distracting you, so you ask her about it. "Daitzsa, what happened to your face?"

As soon as you acknowledge her injury, she seems to get a little nervous. "Oh! Don't worry about it. I accidentally slipped and hit my eye, but I'm okay! Stuff like that happens to the best of us." You are not convinced by her words, and she seems to notice this. "Aaaaaanyway!" she says, clearly trying to change the topic. "Hyenus, my husband is still sleeping, so we have some time to train together. We can go to a hidden place where he won't find us, it's not too far away from here. Are you ready to get going?"

It's pretty obvious her husband beat her and she's already wounded.

It doesn't sound that off that she carelessly slipped and hit her eye, and even if she is lying, there's nothing Hyenus or Daitzsa can do about it, given we don't even know who could've done it.
Was it a puddle and a rock? Her husband? Daitzsa herself?
We have two possible suspects if this was a gnoll's deed.

You have an idea of what happened to Daitzsa, and it might have to do with his husband. The sole thought makes you angry. The other females wouldn’t let themselves be mistreated like that, but your friend isn’t as aggressive as them. She’s passive and reserved with everyone, except when talking with you.

Daitzsa doesn’t want to talk about her black eye, and you’ll respect that. Besides, you’re strong enough to intervene… yet.

“The sooner, the better!” you exclaim, showing yourself enthusiastic to spar with her. “Great! You’ll never guess how cool this place is, Hyeny. Follow me!”

You follow Daitzsa to the east. Along the way, you ask her if Rurk and the others saw the greenie’s corpses. They did, and Rurk said that it was “not a bad start for Hyenus”… but they soon forgot about your achievement after mocking how long you took to recover and how you had to be taken care of the whole time.

It seems you still have a long way ahead to earn their respect.

Daitzsa also tells you of what has been going on in the tribe while you were asleep. Your pack spent a week making preparations for the Ritual of Breeding, making sure to abduct a female virgin from the southern human villages. The tribe also got into a few skirmishes with the Wolfslayers, the powerful warriors from the pack to the north, but nobody in either side was killed.

The scouts have also noticed that the humans to the south are setting up camps near the forest. It seems they want to expand their territory. Your leader ordered the explorers to study their defenses exhaustively, after which she will gather your pack and share her plan to raid the camps and stop their advancement. It might take a few days until then.

The dream you had before comes to your mind... perhaps you will get into a fight with one of the humies?

After a five-minute walk, Daitzsa and you arrive to the waterfall to the east of the tribe. “Where’s the hidden place?” you ask her. “It’s right in front of you!” She grabs your hand and jumps into the water, making you fall behind and splash water everywhere. “There’s a cavern behind the waterfall. We can spar there all we want, and nobody will ever know!” What a damn good scout your friend is. She's able to discover places no one else does, see what others never see.

You and your friend swim towards the waterfall, resisting the pressure of the water falling onto your heads. You swim through and find yourself in a huge cavern!

According to this illustration, humans wear armour to battle (and possibly other dangerous tasks), is it that the more powerful or important gnolls wear armour looted from humans and modified to fit their bodies when they know that they cannot risk failure or injury in a battle?

Your pack hates humans and everything they create. They prefer to burn and destroy everything on their path. You are one of the few members of the tribe who is interested in using their tools.

The only gnoll pack in the forest who takes advantage of human technology are the Tufted Ears. Their warriors often wear armor and weapons looted from them.

Daitzsa is silent for a moment, as if something suddenly came to her mind. Then she rolls her eyes, looking annoyed. “Hyenus, we forgot something important.”

“What is it?” you say. “Our wooden spears. We cannot spar with these, it could be dangerous…”

I assumed gnolls don't manufacture armours themselves because none of the illustrations of gnolls that are scouts or hunters show them in armour, which means either that they are confident hunters, or that they don't manufacture armour, or that armour is too valuable for use in such tasks, but then, scouts don't seem to wear it, and their jobs are more risky than the jobs of hunters and losing scouts could mean wasting lots of special training and potential gains, while hunters are just those too weak or clumsy to defend the tribe, and can be easily replaced if lost to hunted game, which is unlikely, and some of them even grow strong enough to defend the tribe, but will then need some training (less training than scouts still)
My theory is that if gnolls made armour, then that gnoll made armour could be exclusive to stronger defenders, and only used for defence by the elite and most valuable fighters, while the relatively weaker and less valuable fighters get looted human armour, and the weakest and least valuable fighters either get demoted to being hunters, get no armour and get called to fight only if the situation is dire enough, and are usually tasked to delivering resources to raids if necessary.

Tufted Ears know how to fit the metal armor looted from humans to their smaller body frames, which are then handed to their best and tallest warriors. They also make their own fur and leather armor, which is worn by weaker members of their pack. We might learn more about how they organize later on, depending on future interactions with their tribe. As a side note: none of the gnolls of any pack in the forest uses armor of any kind, except for the Tufted Ears.

I think I’ll explain the social structure of Hyenus’s pack. There are no dedicated hunters that bring food for the whole tribe. Any Bloodseeker is expected to be able to hunt game for their own family and themselves. Since you’re an Omega, gnolls like Rurk make an exception in your case and force you to bring them food when they feel like it. As for the hierarchy of the tribe, it follows this structure:

Leader – The mightiest gnoll warrior. In order to reach this position, you have to earn the respect of the tribe, then challenge the current leader to a fight and win.

Shaman – A religious figure as respected as the leader due to his knowledge on spiritual matters and medicinal herbs. He represents the tribe’s values and religious beliefs, and he’s the one to organize all the rituals.

Scouts – These gnolls are the fastest, stealthiest and most perceptive, and they have great knowledge of the land. They spy on enemy territory to survey the other tribes' movements and learn of any suspicious activity. Scouts are strong enough to defend themselves, but being agile is the top priority to them. Daitzsa is an example of a good scout.

Defenders – Gnolls that don’t join skirmishes or scout ahead in enemy territory, are at the very least expected to stay and defend the tribe when warriors and scouts are gone. When a defender is not hunting or defending, he must make tools for everyone, build and repair huts, tend to the wounded and sick, take care of the babies and kids when their scout or warrior parents are not at home, and other miscellaneous tasks.

Omega – Technically a defender, but in practice a weak, slacking, good-for-nothing gnoll who barely contributes to the tribe and can barely fend off for himself. You’re the only omega of the pack.

Strength and dominance is highly valued in the Bloodseeker pack, so the Leader and the Warriors are the most respected out of all these roles (shaman is respected for his religious importance). Everyone is a hunter, so if you don’t prove your worth by participating in skirmishes against other packs, then you’re expected to earn respect by hunting strong game and being useful to the tribe in other matters, like Scouts and Defenders do. Otherwise, you suffer Hyenus’s fate and are relegated to being an Omega.
>>
>>4358772
Forgot to add Warriors in the hierarchy, they're right below Shaman in terms of importance but above Scouts, Defenders and Omega.

Warriors are the strongest gnolls of the tribe. They participate in skirmishes and big battles against enemy tribes.

I'm doing some changes on the battle system. Might be constantly updating it until it fits just right, but I’ll always inform the changes.

- Chance to block without a shield is influenced by Weapon / Unarmed skill and Agility

- Block Skill has been removed

- No more default combat commands during battle. Just write in how to act, or choose one of the options I give (which may or may not be effective), and then when I ask you guys to roll, I’ll involve Agility, Strength, Skill bonuses and other contextual modifiers depending on the nature of the write-in.

- When you hit an enemy, I’ll ask to roll 1d100 to determine how much damage you do. If you’re unarmed and roll 50, it means you do 100% of Strength / 2 in damage. Rolling more or less than 50 adds or substracts 1% for each point. For example, if you roll 10, you do 60% of Strength / 2 in damage, and if you roll 90 then you do 140% of Strength / 2 in damage. Hitting a weak or frail spot will multiply this damage by a certain amount I'll also specify. Only first roll counts

- When there’s no way you can do damage, I won’t ask for the Strength roll. In this case, I won’t ask for one because with your current roll you can do no damage to Daitzsa, she will fully block your attack and her defense surpasses your attack’s force.

Daitzsa is injured, and you’re aware of this. You won’t tell her a thing, but you will mind your attacks and be careful not to exploit any weaknesses and defenses in a way that might up wounding her badly. This is just a warming-up exercise for you – you need to regain your vigor after two weeks of idleness.

“Take this!” you yell, lifting up your left arm to punch her!

You try ducking to avoid her punch, but you weren't fast enough, and her strong jab hits you in the chest! "OOOOWWWWWW!!!"

HP: 18 / 24 (-4 HP, Wounded)

Daitzsa seems surprised by how much damage she caused. "By Gnolrek! Are you okay?!"

... No mercy! You immediately throw a left jab back at her!

Your friend is surprised by your retaliation, and she tries to dodge your attack! But your punch is very precise and accurate, despite your atrophied muscles, and you manage to hit her right in the chest!

Daitzsa: 22 / 28 (-3 HP, Lightly Wounded)

"OUCH!!! Hyenus, that was great punch! I'm getting heated up!

After you punch your friend, you both step back and stare at each other in silence. There is fire in Daitzsa's eyes and a broad smile in her face. She seems to be taking this fight a bit too seriously.

You realize that sparring like this could be dangerous, especially for you... unless you go all out and connect yourself with your feral side!

I don't think so, tribe members coming back from the forest with bruises and maybe a few scrapes probably isn't that uncommon.

Obviously, you’re not going to go bloodthirsty on your friend. That would end up badly for both of you. But if you keep sparring like this, it’ll end up aggravating your wounds. You need to stop this before it gets worse.

“Wait” you say, motioning Daitzsa to stop. She stares at you in silence, her smile gone.

“Look” you explain. “This is just a simple sparring match, okay? Let’s not get too carried away. How about we spar without putting weight behind our punches to avoid hurting each other?”

“STOP BEING SUCH A FREAKING WEAKLING!!!”

You feel a sudden sharp pain in your heart as you hear those words come out of Daitzsa’s mouth. You would never have expected your only friend in the world to say that. Your mind is blank – you have no idea of how to react.

“Just when I thought this was about to get interesting, and you come up with that trash?!” Daitzsa snaps. “You will NEVER stop being an Omega if you keep avoiding real fights just cause you’re too scared of what might happen!”

Daitzsa begins running in circles around the cavern with such speed that she creates multiple images of herself behind her step! This is the Afterimage technique – an ability that all Bloodseeker scouts have learned through hard training!

You can hear Daitzsa’s voice coming from everywhere, never staying in a single point! “I KNOW you have potential! You just don’t know how to unlock it! Everytime I look into your eyes, I see a spark… a warrior greater than any other, waiting to be born! The others are too stupid to realize it, but you are my friend and I know exactly what I’m talking about!

Daitzsa’s voice breaks as she starts yelling in a fit of rage! “Come out of your shell! Show me how strong you can be, or else you will DIE here and fade from everyone’s memories having made zero impact during your pathetic life! SHOW ME YOUR STRENGTH, HYENUS!!!”

I guess if gnolls' controlled movements can be fast enough to cause after images of their whole body to appear, a gnoll's reflex attacks could make their attacking limb basically disappear and reappear after hitting the target hard ten times.
>>
>>4360376
I think if he reflex attacks whatever hits him, which will be easier with bloodthirst, his attacks will be fast enough to hit the attacking limbs, which are normally not very well defended, before Daitzsa returns to stance.
Hyenus has the disadvantage of that he is neither really great at martial arts, nor he trained his reflexes, which means that he can get hit while moving his attacking limb back to his stance even if he did it reflexively, making his reflex attacks a bit worse than they could be, but still a lot better than controlled attacks, because those reflex attacks are almost guaranteed to hit their target because of their great speed.
Hyenus still has to be careful and start doing them at the right time, because if Daitzsa understands what he is trying to do, those guaranteed hits will be hitting leaves and seeds instead of limbs, and he is sure to get hit a lot if that happens.
Also these reflex attacks must not depend on hearing or sight, because they are useless now, they should depend on the sense of touch.
He can't do that right now because his mind is too busy to think clearly because of that bloodthirst, but I think it could be neat if he did, and I think that there's a possibility of him thinking of that in desperation if bloodthirst fades away, but this will take away the reflex enhancing advantage of bloodthirst and add multiple disadvantages that bloodthirst prevents.

"Are you out of your mind?!" you yell at Daitzsa, unable to understand her behavior. “I hit you one time, and you chimp out like this? Why?!”

"You are silly if you think your punch is what set me off!" Daitzsa shouts. "When you retaliated against my jab, I saw fire in your eyes - you were furious that I hurted you so badly! I thought your shell would finally break, and your true self would come out... but you backed away at the last moment, and it infuriates me! You’re a coward!”

Daitzsa starts running in circles even faster. "Don't you see, Hyenus?! I WANT you to awaken your inner warrior! I WANT you to assert your dominance! If you refuse to go all out, then I'll give you no choice but to do so!"

She went completely nuts, that’s for sure. But you don’t care anymore. You are *done* with being called a weakling, a coward and a slacker by everyone. If Daitzsa wants to provoke you, then she’ll get what she’s asking for!

You build up rage in your heart and enter your berserk state! "ROOOOOOOOOARRRRRR!!!"

>67 Daitzsa’s Afterimage vs 58 Hyenus’s Focus (67 Hyenus’s Accuracy) = Barely success

Wrath invades you whole. There is only one thought filling your head: destroying the prey that stands before you!

“Yes! That’s what I wanted to see!” you hear the enemy yell at you. You quickly attempt to focus on its movement patterns, following the afterimages it leaves behind while attempting to predict where it’ll be next.

“I’m gonna’ attack you any time now, Hyeny! Prepare yourself!”

It is too difficult to predict its movements - you can barely see anything but a blur! But right before the prey jumps on you, you manage to see its figure clearly for a second, and you immediately take this opportunity to lunge at it!

Daitzsa: 14 / 28 (-8 HP, Moderately Wounded)

You manage to catch your prey in a barrage of punches, most of them hitting its chest and abdomen! It is agile, however, and it manages to dodge many of your hits. The good thing is that its Afterimage technique is now done for!

A moan of pain escapes your target’s lips as it puts its hands on its wounds. “Your punches…” it whispers. “… they have so much weight in them.”

It smiles at you. “I was right about you, Hyenus. There is more to you than can be seen at first sight!” The enemy lunges at you with its claws out!

The enemy’s movements are fast! In your furious state, it is hard to think of anything else than beating the crap out of it, and this worsens your defense! It swipes its claws at you many times, and you succeed in dodging most of its attacks, but you’re still left heavily injured from the onslaught!

Hyenus: 13 / 24 (-5 HP, Moderately wounded)

You both step back, analyzing each other’s movements and thinking of how to act now. For some reason, the prey doesn’t seem as angry as you are. It looks delighted to be here, fighting with you, despite its injuries...

You see the enemy is having trouble keeping itself on its feet. The pain of its wounds is getting to it, where as in you are completely numbed to yours.

121 Daitzsa Evade vs 82 Hyenus Tackle = Tackle fails

The second round begins, and you feel a burning desire to assert dominance! You lunge at the injured prey, intending to tackle it and subdue it with your superior strength!

However, the enemy’s will to live is too strong – despite being wounded and in pain, it remains alert to your movements and dodges your tackle with great speed! “T-these wounds are nothing!” it vociferates, never losing the grin on its face!

Rolled 77, 92, 66, 7, 37, 64 = 343 (6d100)

Hyenus will kung fu kick Daitzsa in the chest as she comes down.

Daitzsa cannot dodge in mid-air. Dodge skill won't be a factor.

Whoever rolls higher accuracy / speed in their attack will get the first strike and will send the other flying away. If both Hyenus's and Daitzsa's rolls are close, they'll damage each other at the same time.

A minimum score of 50 is required for an attack to partially connect. 70 or more is needed for it to fully connect. Any less than 50 will be a miss or a graze at best.

Rolling for:
- Daitzsa's attack accuracy and speed (1st, 2nd and 3rd die. best of 3. 1d100 + 1. +14 Agility, +2 Unarmed skill, -15 Moderate wounds)
- Daitzsa's attack power in case she passes the accuracy test (4th, 5th and 6th die, best of 3. 1d100 + 25. +25 due to falling momentum)

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

>Roll 2d100 for Hyenus. Best of 3.

- 1st die will determine your kick's accuracy and speed. (1d100 + 27. +30 Bloodthirst, +3 Agility, +4 Unarmed skill, -10 Kicking is slightly harder to do than punching)
- 2nd die will determine your kick's power in case it passes the accuracy test (1d100 + 10. +10 Kick is more powerful than punch)

Your opponent is performing an aerial attack, leaving its defenses vulnerable as it is unable to dodge while in mid-air! You gather all your power in your legs, preparing to jump towards the prey when it comes down!

It takes you less than a second to focus all your strength on your lower limbs. Your opponent is coming down – NOW is the time to strike! You jump and lift your right leg, aiming towards the target’s chest!

Both of you let out a war cry! “RRAAAAAAAAWWWWWRRR!!!” The victor will be decided on this final clash!

>93 Daitzsa’s attack maneuvering vs 96 Hyenus’s attack maneuvering = Both hit each other for full damage
>89 (+39%) Daitzsa’s attack power. (14 Strength / 2) * 1,39 * 0,3 (Leg) = 3 damage to Hyenus
>109 (+59%) Hyenus’s attack power. (24 Strength / 2) * 1,59 * 0,4 (Torso) = 8 damage to Daitzsa

The fight culminates here! This is the end – whoever strikes first shall win! You and your opponent’s speed are tested on this clash!

… and YOU are the resulting victor! Your kick lands on your prey’s chest with lethal force, launching it away with such speed that it crashes against the cavern’s walls! “AAAAAHHHHHH!!! Aaahh… a-amazing, Hyenus…”

Daitzsa: 6 / 28 (-8 HP, Severely wounded. Unable to keep fighting)

For a moment, you thought you had won the clash unharmed, but only now you realize the prey managed to swipe your right leg with its sharp claws right as it was sent flying away, ripping your flesh apart and causing a bleeding wound.

Hyenus: 11 / 26 (-3 HP, Moderately wounded)

It doesn’t matter. The wounds you received during this fight are irrelevant. What matters is that you WON. After a long, difficult fight, you have finally emerged victorious. You have proved yourself to be mightier than your opponent.

Your prey is still breathing, but it’s unable to keep fighting due to its severe wounds. You kneel beside it, in order to have a closer look at it. Daitzsa… no, your prey, is coughing blood. “H-Hyenus *cough*… I always… I always knew you were strong… you just needed… a little push…”

Your fallen opponent grabs your left hand and squeezes it, though it's not a tight grip, as it lost all of its energy and vigor. Despite being your enemy, this gesture does not make you want to back away. You don’t understand why, but you are experiencing… strange feelings towards this woman.

(Bloodthirst has worn off)

Daitzsa whispers to you. “You have dominated me, Hyenus… harder than Gunyx has ever done… *cough* I always desired it in secret… and I’m so happy *cough* t-that the day has finally arrived…”

You are no longer bloodthirsty. And yet, all of the emotions you felt during the fight, the excitement of knowing you were victorious and dominated someone else… those feelings are still lingering in your heart, making it pound hard and fast.

Daitzsa looks into your eyes, and you look back into hers. There is love in her gaze. Her scent has changed - it is now similar to the smell there is in the air during the Ritual of Breeding, when everyone in the pack goes to their huts to make pups. Your friend releases your hand, then closes her eyes. She’s shaking in fear, yet there is also a broad smile in her face.

“Warrior… I am at your mercy... I am yours, and you may do as you please with me… My life, my body, my entire being is in your hands.”

I don't really like the training master stuff desu, she's not some guru. She's literally just our friend who we sparred with twice, telling her to become a training master and then telling her she must train to defeat two alpha's just seems extremely random and forced to me. The friend and mentor stuff is fine though, but telling she has the potential to become a training master and leader, why? This just seems like a really roundabout way to tell her that we want to keep sparring with her and get stronger with her. Also what's with the dig at her about her not having the potential to be a great mother?
>>
>>4362127
Well, as for the claim that she wouldn't be a great mother figure, I just realized that it could be blunt, hurtful, and brutally honest, better not say it.
As for the great potential to be an alpha part, well, it is more realistic than her own claim that Hyenus has a great potential to stop being an omega, which is something he already did right now, but doesn't deny that Daitzsa has the potential to grow even greater, she has a much higher starting point than him, and has the experience to grow even faster than he can.
>>
wow this must be one gnarly fucking stone we fell on (both of us separately, since we can't be seen together). Let's say we had a fight with the Molkaras and daitzsa who was scouting, found our skirmish. When Daitzsa came the molkaras soon fled afterwards but we all come out with wounds from the skirmish. As for why we were in Molkara territory, we were trying to gather flowers for the shaman.
Don't forget to fill daitzsa in on our coverstory.
>>
>>4362163
Thank you, we have a story that makes some sense.
Crisis averted.
>>
>>4362163
Well, Hyenus should be foraging for kudinds now, right? Well, let's say that that he and Daitzsa got into great trouble foraging for kudinds.
Tell Daitzsa about this and tell her to say that she helped Hyenus deal with an ambush while he was foraging for kudinds, also agree to say nothing about it before she tells that story to avoid her telling the truth after Hyenus tells a lie.
Hyenus should then tell them that he lost the kudinds.
>>
>>4362187
If you say "I and Daitzsa" it implies we were hanging out, which is bad. Also might incur problems if we mentioned we had any kudinds incase we're asked about them. Though making daitzsa relay the story and us just affirming is probably better, because she's more trusted. Is there anything that Daitzsa knows that might poke a hole in our story, though? Like facts about the other gnolltribe and such.
>>
>>4362192
Well, let's say she found Hyenus foraging for kudinds while she's doing her job... and she also found that ambush right before they attacked Hyenus, she warned him about the ambush and this directed their attention to her instead of him, both Hyenus and Daitzsa then concluded that they cannot get out of there alive if one of them dies or gets too heavily injured, so they fought hard and bitter, but still managed to somehow send the ambush escaping before more Molkaras arrive, and managed to escape and hide before Daitzsa's wounds got that serious.
Daitzsa should still agree to lie before Hyenus does, we know she might decide to do something rash.
>>
>>4362206
But before Hyenus and Daitzsa do that, Hyenus should ask her if that could make sense to those more familiar with the Molkaras.

Some of you guys are the biggest group of betas I have ever seen with these write ins lol. Can't say I expect anything else from furfags.

This write in is way too late to change anything, but the proper response is:

>>
>>4361979
>>4362119
Not sure how the vote works on this one but I'd change to this just to try and avoid the really long speech write in. It makes sense to try and help her with her wounds, and screwing someone who might literally bleed out mid orgasm isn't a terribly good idea, but a moralizing speech to your childhood friend who just confessed to you is real dumb.

>Evaluate her wounds
>Mate with her
Fuck her but make sure she won't die from the fucking first
>>
Is it possible to vote against something?
>>
>>4362420
no
>>
>>4362427
Too bad.
Because I was itching to vote against fucking her.
She is severely wounded, she reeks of pheromones and blood, and you really don't want Hyenus and Daitzsa to smell the same, gnolls WILL find Hyenus having the same smell of blood, pheromones, and semen as Daitzsa VERY suspicious.
She won't survive this if He fucks her, and even if she does, she won't survive it when she returns to the tribe.
Why do I think she won't survive this?
Because even if he evaluates her wounds and does whatever is necessary to stop any life-threatening injuries, sex is a physically exhausting thing, and even if she doesn't die of exhaustion, she will be dehydrated, and if she drinks water this will worsen her wounds.
>>
>>4362436
We could solve the scent problem by washing it off, both of them would know that it smells.
>>
>>4362437
If it weren't for the fact that this can reopen the wounds that have barely got the time to close and were probably already reopened by that fucking fuck, no matter how gentle they both go, these wounds will re-open and washing them will probably prevent them from closing again in time.

>>4362192
>Is there anything that Daitzsa knows that might poke a hole in our story, though? Like facts about the other gnolltribe and such
You can try telling her the story you plan on making up, and see if she might notice a hole in it due to her personal scout experience.

But here's a gnoll fact that everyone in your pack knows. Like every other tribe, Malkaras use spears during fights. Hand-to-hand combat is a last resort. It might be wise to keep in mind the nature of Daitzsa's wounds and yours if you want your story to sound credible.

>>4362420
If you feel strongly against a write-in or choice, you can vote against it by wording it like
>Don't do or say x

Regardless, if I see there's no clear consensus on something, I won't implement it right away in the next update. Instead I'll do a shorter update with the debated write-in as one of the default choices, but with modifications that some anons previously suggested.
>>
possible solutions:

Suturing the wounds:
They are probably too many to do that, also, I doubt he has a needle to do that, he can improvise a string from his outfit, but he has no needle to suture the wounds.

Praying to Gnolrek:
What?

Deus ex machina:
What?

Magic healing herb:
There's no such thing as far as Hyenus knows, and even if there is such a thing, Hyenus doesn't know it and probably it is very likely that he doesn't have it.

Cleaning the wounds before fucking:
This will not worsen them a lot because they probably partially closed, but this will only eliminate a risk of infection by whatever is in the water or the dirt that got on her while she was fighting, plus they will still reopen if they fuck.

>Don't fuck her:
Safest choice, for reasons I think I made clear.

At least tell us that there is a way to safely sterilize and close her wounds and prevent them from reopening while fucking before suggesting that they fuck.

A storm of ideas invades Hyenus's mind as he considers whether mating with Daitzsa, correcting her behavior or brushing it off and simply focus on healing her. He resolves that he will first evaluate and treat her wounds however he can, and then decide what to do with her. (Will include anons' write-ins as choices for the next update, including versions with suggested changes)

I imagined it to be without words. I don't know why we'd ask how bad she feels if the priority is just looking over the wounds.

It is a terrible idea, but I vote for it under the idea of what someone with Hyenus's backstory (and a gnoll in general) would do.

Honestly people, we gotta grow a pair here. Not just that, she's all but courted us and by rights she's ours. Her husband will be the next thing we make our property. Now let's wreck a womb.
>>
>>4363039
Definitely. People gotta remember that we're gnolls, human values and traditions don't apply.
As long as it won't kill her we gotta put some pups in her.

I just hope the inevitable fight with her husband is gonna come once we have bloodlust back and we're not almost dead. What do gnolls in general think of ntr? is this fair play or are we going to piss off the other gnolls too?

>>4363039
>but muh dick
Yeah, sure, good luck fighting him off, in our injured state, without our rage buff, when we get back.
>but we can ma--
"Not in a timely manner, no."
Gnolls are also canid in nature, so they're gonna smell that shit no matter what. You are NOT thinking this through.
>>
>>4363123
Thats what I wanna know as well, for all we know dicking someone elses wife gets us beat and thrown out, the other gnolls don't like us much as it is.
Plus were practically half dead, so if we dick her and get caught we better be ready to fight with half health or hope were faster then her husband.
>>
>>4363123
In that system that shall not be named gnoll culture permits reverse ntr. So get ready for some hubby dick.
>>
>>4363128

We can dick her later when we become mega-chad anyway.
Won't the gnolls smell that we have each others scent on us though regardless?
Rurk MIGHT not tell if we have a fucking miracle, he seems like he cares about Hyenus to an extent and wants him to grow, cucking Gunyx is honestly ballsy if anything.

Your tribe in particular is monogamous and holds marriage as the ultimate union between two Bloodseekers. The ritual involves drinking each other's blood to create a permanent bond,of shared strength and companionship, a bond that can only be broken by the death of one or both parts.

If a Bloodseeker is catched cheating on his husband or wife, both the cheater and the lover will be exiled.

Do you really think that a lone wolf who NTRs female gnolls from multiple tribes will go unnoticed and will not suffer the wrath of every gnoll tribe and even the humans who might find a pack of wandering gnolls to be a minor -but still present- threat to their expansion plans?
Even if he only NTRs gnolls of his own tribe, this is an AWFUL idea.

After submitting herself to you, Daitzsa lies silent on the ground, waiting for you to make your move. You are eager to give in to your primal urges… but you cannot act recklessly. You would regret it for the rest of your life if you accidentally give her a fatal injury in a fit of passion.

You take a deep breath, relieving the tension in your muscles and trying to stop your heart from beating so fast. You meditate, trying to sort out your priorities…

Your thoughts are much clearer now, and this gives you more control over your actions. Before you do anything with Daitzsa, you must assess and treat her wounds first. You value her life immensely - she is your childhood friend, and you won’t hesitate to put your desires aside –at least for now- to prioritize her health.

Daitzsa opens her eyes to observe you, noticing you are conflicted. She whispers to you with a gentle tone. “Do not doubt, Hyenus…” She once again grabs your hand, this time placing it on her chest. This is the first time you touch a female like this. Your heart is pounding fast again.

“Do not mind my wounds… focus on your own pleasure… and do with me as you wish...”

Her gesture and words are making your instincts kick in again, so you gently release her hold before you get carried away. “Not yet” you say with confidence. “I might make you mine soon, but my desire will not replace my regard for your safety.” Daitzsa stares at you in silence, and after a few seconds, she gives you a little nod, as well as a faint smile.

You suddenly feel pinching pain in your right leg. It has a long wound scratch, a consequence of Daitzsa swiping her claws at you. It seems you aren’t in very good shape either. You’ve lost a good deal of stamina, which will, without a doubt, make your return to the tribe carrying Daitzsa much more difficult than you expected. At least your muscles are not atrophied anymore.

You begin to examine Daitzsa’s wounds. Most of her injuries are blunt trauma, as you used your knuckles in more attacks than you used your claws during your barrage. She has few scratches on her, but there is blood dripping from them in considerable amounts. This will gradually weaken her, not to mention it risks an infection. You’ll have to do something about this.

Daitzsa’s coughing of blood is also worrying you. You hope with all your soul that your kick didn’t damage her lungs. You don’t know what to do about this, other than getting her in a sitting position and telling her to try to avoid coughing as much as possible.

You limp towards the cavern’s entrance and put your hands on the waterfall, accumulating water in them, then walk back to Daitzsa and pour the liquid onto her wounds to clean them up. You then rip a piece of your loincloth, and bandage each one of her bleeding injuries.

… … …

Daitzsa is all patched up now, and her coughing has mostly ceased. This should stop her from bleeding out, but she still needs the shaman’s medical aid as soon as possible.

You approach Daitzsa, not sure whether to carry her and go back to the tribe, or…

… Your nostrils are suddenly hit with her scent, which warms you up and excites you. But you're still not sure of what to do. If your tribe finds out of what happens here, you will be both exiled, if not killed by Gunyx!

Daitzsa sees doubt in your eyes again. “Hyenus… forgive me… for getting you into this… I couldn't handle it anymore..."

She lifts her hand and starts caressing your chest mane. “Know that your strength… is not the only thing I value... I also treasure our friendship… and the trust we feel for each other… but *cough* we can be more than friends… if you desire... and we can keep this a secret... b-between us... and nobody will ever know...”

Regardless of what we do I got a plan for why both of us are beaten up and she got our smell. First we help her get as close as possible to the village then we left her go and come back later, we tell her to say we were hunting and we screwed up and she ended up trying to help us by patching us up and helping hunting, but things went poorly and later we ended up separating. That's my idea for an excuse.

Carnivores normally have rough tongues that help them groom each other or remove meat that is stuck to bones while eating, not worth it at all.

You slap your face to get out of your flustered state. These emotions cannot sway you: Daitzsa is heavily injured, and taking her may cause irreversible damage. And even if it doesn’t, it’ll make both of you reek suspiciously, and the pack will *smell* what happened. These impulses must be controlled, both Daitzsa’s and your own.

"I love you too” you confess to her, “but it isn't safe for either of us to do this right now.” Daitzsa stares at you with a slightly disappointed look. You stare into her eyes... and you feel a sudden burst of anger. She was your opponent a moment ago, and you basically tried to kill each other. The heat of the fight is still lingering in your blood.

“And because I'm obviously stronger than you” you add in, reminding Daitzsa that you crushed her in battle, “I'd rather not add your hips to the list of broken bones you probably have right now." Daitzsa gives you a faint smile, her eyes revealing she is infatuated by your words. Her scent hits your nostrils even harder. All you desire is to take her as your prize, and it frustrates you that you cannot do it without bringing hell to your lives afterwards. But you have made up your mind, and you will not back away.

You carry your friend in your shoulders. She closes her eyes and wraps her arms around your chest. You do your best to focus on the current task at hand and ignore the feel of her soft, furry chest in your back, as well as her smell nearly overwhelming your senses. This reminds you that your scents must be masked before arriving to the tribe. There is bound to be plants in the forest that could prove useful, and Daitzsa can help you out.

You'll also need a cover-up story for what happened. You have a few ideas in mind, which you could share with your friend on the way.

But first, you need to get out of here. You look at the entrance - the wáterfall and lagoon stands before you. You could try swimming to the other side, but your injured leg, your lack of stamina and carrying Daitzsa in your back will make it difficult. You’re not as in bad shape as your friend is, though, so you’re pretty sure you could recover without medical treatment, if you rest well. Maybe you can both take a little nap, and once you’ve gained some of your vigor back, you can swim to the other side without risking your lives. Or you could try venturing further inside the cavern, and search for an exit that doesn’t involve swimming...

Your friend must have explored this area - she’s a scout after all. Maybe there are safer exits. “Are there any other entrances to this cavern, Daitzsa?” you ask, but your question is answered with snoring...

“Daitzsa!” you insist, waking your friend up. “O-oh… sorry… I felt asleep…”

Daitzsa explains she found this location a month ago. She didn’t tell the others because it's her "personal hidden place”, which she intended to share with you one day. "There are four main paths", she explains.

The path to the north took her about fifteen minutes to traverse, and there’s an exit at the end that leads to a bushy zone of the forest. She found Tarrak spiders along the way, which are similar to giant rats in terms of size and toughness, with the added threat of their venomous bites. Daitzsa explains that these spiders aren’t aggressive unless they see you as a threat, so she had to avoid making sudden moves and keep her distance from them. Near the exit, she heard loud snoring coming from one of the sidepaths. There were human and giant rat bones around. "Probably a bear that made this place its home" she comments.

All in all, it’s a path that could be dangerous if you’re careless, but it’s also the shortest. She suggests that you go this way so you can get to the tribe fast, hopefully before Gunyx wakes up and realizes both of you are gone.

The path to the east is “the safest, but longest”. It took her about an hour to traverse and only found two or three aggressive giant rats along the way. There’s an exit at the end that leads to a cliff with a beautiful view to Tufled Ears’ territory. From there, she descended the small mountain and was able to stroll back to the tribe in less than half an hour. She explains that if you take this path, you shouldn’t worry about the giant rats – they are no match for a warrior like you.

As for the southern path, Daitzsa explains that she only partially explored it before turning back. She had to descend further into the cavern to where there is little to no daylight. There were many luminous mushrooms and plants, some of which she had never seen before. What made her turn back and run, however, was a raspy voice yelling at her out of nowhere in the middle of the darkness. “HI DOGGY!!!” it said. A voice she associated to a human that could talk in gnoll language, for whatever reason.

The last path, the one that leads to the southeast… Daitzsa urges you to not take it. You ask her why, but you get no response. Her snoring tells you she felt asleep again.

it seems easiest to just swim across the lagoon and go on home the way we came. The safest path also sounds enticing but descending the mountain with daitzsa in tow sounds about as dangerous as swimming across the lagoon really..
>>
>>4366875
It's still daytime, right? The bear probably isn't in its cave right now. Let's go north while being careful about those spiders.

Daitzsa said one more thing regarding the long path: descending the small mountain was also relatively safe. But she had stroll instead of run in order to avoid slipping.

>Take path to the east
Even if her wounds were fully closed, there is still a huge risk of Daitzsa or Hyenus drowning.
the risk of exhaustion posed by the long path is better than the risks posed by the shorter paths, as it is a risk that both Hyenus and Daitzsa can easily recover from, and it is much better than going down the path Hyenus's friend strongly advised against taking.

Daitzsa suggested that you take the north path, but she's talking from her own scout experience. She may not have trouble avoiding startling animals like Tarrak spiders and bears, but you'd probably screw things up.

You decide to take the least dangerous path instead. Onwards to the east!

(Several minutes later...)

This way is exactly like Daitzsa described. You've been walking for a while on the rocky path, often almost tripping on rocks because it's so dark to see where you're stepping. But at least you haven't encountered any giant rats yet, and if you're lucky, you may not stumble upon an-

"Oh" you mutter, as you realize you were immediately proven wrong. There it is, you found one of the vermins your friend told you about. It's eating some blue mushrooms you have never seen before in an illuminated zone of the cavern with plenty of growing moss around. There's a big rock next to the creature. Behind the rock, there's a human skull, a leather backpack and a odd metal tool that's probably human-made.

You look at the daylight hole. For a moment, you consider the possibility of climbing outside, but quickly dismiss the idea as you realize the cavern wall is too smooth and vertically-inclined to get a grip on it,

The rat is minding its own business. It seems that it hasn't spotted you yet. You could try sneaking behind the rocks and pass by it unnoticed, or you could attack it while it's unaware of your presence. But there's always the possibility of waiting until it leaves.

>57 = Barely success

Even though it's a weak creature, you are injured, and your friend's life is in your hands. You'll try to avoid fights whenever possible. You grab the human tool - it's better than fighting with your bare hands, in case you need to defend yourself. It'll also compensate for the fact that you forgot to grab your spear before venturing into the cavern. Carrying your friend while holding a weapon in the same hand you're grabbing her leg with isn't easy, but it's doable.

You crouch and use the rocks to cover you, minding every one of your steps to pass ahead the distracted rat as stealthily as possible. You do well, and successfully leave it behind. However, just when you were about to go around a corner and lose the vermin out of sight, you accidentally kick a small stone which you didn't see in the middle of the darkness! It hits the cavern wall, making considerable noise!

You immediately look behind you - the rat has disappeared. It was startled, but fortunately, it ran away rather than pursuing the source of the sound. You continue walking, this time a bit faster than before, feeling a bit paranoid that other rats may be coming to investigate the noise.

(Several minutes later...)

To your relief, you haven't stumbled upon any other big rats. At this rate, you'll find the exit soon.

As you walk on the rocky hallways, you stumble upon an incredibly strange cavern wall. It is glowing with a dim red colour, and there engraved eye symbols on it. You're not sure if it's your imagination, but it feels as if they're following your steps, and every time you turn your head to check them, they're not moving. This place makes you feel nervous and unsafe. And the air... it's tainted. Corrupted. You don't how to explain it, but there's something *very* off here.

You hear a voice in your head. It speaks in a calm, serene tone that is neither masculine nor feminine. "TOUCH THE WALL... AND YOU SHALL RECOVER YOUR BLOODTHIRST."

You carefully lay Daitzsa on the ground and walk towards the wall. “YES… COME CLOSER… WE CAN GIVE YOU GREAT POWERS…” the voice says, unaware of your real intentions. You'll teach these spirits a lesson. Nothing can instill fear in the heart of a warrior like you! It’s time to assert your dominance on both the physical and spiritual realm!

When you’re at a safe distance, you lift your metal tool in the air. The eyes open up in surprise, and the voice in your head becomes startled! “WHAT ARE YOU DO-”

You don’t let it finish its sentence as you swing your weapon into one of the eyes! “Picky-picky! Ha ha ha!” You laugh as your weapon gets lodged into the cavern wall, destroying one of the engravings!

Daitzsa hears the scandal and wakes up. “Oohh… I recognize these rocks… did you take the long path?” She stares at the cavern walls. “Those eyes… they weren’t here the first time I passed by…“

As your friend realizes that your weapon is stuck in the rocky wall, her face turns into a mix of horror and surprise! “NO!!! What have you DONE!!!"

Huh. Why is your friend making a big fuss about these little inoffensive symbols? Nothing bad happened! In fact, you’ll pick another o-

I guess this can be faster than just carrying her.
Also, what happened to that weirdo human? could he be of any help? is he even human? has he seen or heard of what happens if you hit the eyes in this cave system with a tool or a weapon?
I have a feeling he might be deus ex machina, but the situation is too dire to depend on that or even think of it, plus if he is still there and he was just a weirdo human, then he might become the hungry demons' snack, it is likely that they didn't eat in weeks or even months and their stamina could be lowered by that, plus they look like they are many enough to create infighting between them for the human meal.
If they didn't find the human looking thing, their stamina will be terrible enough to allow a much easier escape (one that can't be called easy but can't be called hard).
If they found him and he turned out to be a human, infighting will replace hunger with injuries for a few of them, and will be added to their hunger for many of them, and even more infighting will happen as they will be even more irritated and angry than they used to be, and a simple bump will make some of them lose focus on their task and attack other demons.
These scenarios can be resolved by Gnolrek when he notices them happening, but they are likely happen, Gnorlek can be surprised by Hyenus, so how about his demon buddies?
If they found the weirdo human and he turns out to be deus ex machina, well, none of these scenarios matter because Hyenus should focus on escaping anyways.

Anyways, with rolls like these, we should level up our agility to at least level 39.

When we inevitably get out of here, we should definitely bargain with these entities. Their connection to our plane of existence will be weaker near the exit thus offering to be a host in exchange for their occasional assistance will be a mutual benefit. They get to influence the outside world and we get power. Malevolence would certainly compliment our bloodlust.

it should take them about 15-20 paces to reach us
assuming we're as fast as them though, it should take us 8-13 paces to exit the cave

>107: Overwhelming success

A portal to... to HELL?!

Oh, no! This is Gnolrek's lair! You have unknowingly destroyed one of His eyes, and now His eternal wrath is laid upon you!

There's no time to waste! You prepare to run away with Daitzsa on your back... only to realize that terror has taken control of you! Your legs are paralyzed by fear! Gnolrek, a god that used to protect you, is now putting horrible mental images in your mind, showing you what his minions will do once they get their hands on you!

“What are you doing?! HYENUS!!!” Daitzsa shouts desperately while shaking your shoulders, trying to get you to react to no avail! She prostrates and prays with a quavering voice. “A-Almighty Gnolrek, f-forgive our foolishness, I beg you! I BEG YOU!!!”

Is this the end? Is this truly the miserable fate that awaits you?!

… NO! Giving up is not an option! Your friend’s life is in your hands! You cannot allow her to die –or worse- due to your stupid mistake! A true warrior fears nothing! NOT EVEN THE GODS THEMSELVES!!!

You take a deep breath, and by pure instinct let out an echoing howl to give you the courage to break out of the demonic influence paralyzing you! “AWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!”

Done some changes on the battle system.

- Feral Speed now lasts for 10 minutes or until it's deactivated / interrupted

- Powers can now be leveled up the more you use them. Gaining EXP for using Bloodthirst will gradually reduce the defensive roll penalty, while gaining EXP for Feral Speed increases both its magnitude and duration

- Unarmed combat was dishing out too much damage, figured it out during the Hyenus vs Daitzsa fight. The formula for unarmed attack power will now be (Strength / 4) * (attack multiplier 1d100) +-* (contextual modifiers, such as injuries that may be weakening you, what body part you're aiming for, and how much of the attack is a graze)

- Average of 3 will be used to determine any attack's power multiplier. It was Bo3 before, which meant the roll multiplier was always high and all attacks were always too damaging.

- Observer skill has been renamed "Focus" and is part of the miscellaneous skills.

- An Attack Accuracy roll has to be 25 points higher than an Evade roll in order for the attack to fully connect. Anything between 1-24 is a graze of varying degrees, and if it's equal to or less than the Evade roll, then it's a failed attack.


Example of these changes for the current encounter:
- The big demon rat has a strength of 9, and it rolled 48, 24 and 99. The average is 57.
- It'll swipe your torso. (No bonus or penalty to damage)
- Its attack is a graze. (114 Attack accuracy roll vs 106 Evade roll).
- Attack power is (10 Strength / 4) * 1,07 (57 Roll) * 0,66 (Graze) = 2 HP

I may implement Weapon damage and Damage types later on, considering there are spears and how you and some enemies have claws while unarmed. But for now I'll keep it simple until I have a more solid idea in mind.
>>
>>4373294
Rat has 10 Strength, not 9. Typed the wrong number
>>
>>4373297
Dunno about the unarmed combat doing too much damage.

IMO: certain abilities likely make unarmed attacks similar to weapons. Might adjust unarmed (bloodthirst) or something.

Also just give yourself a name mang.
>>
Hyenus will be damaged for 2 HP by the rat, but it's not enough to interrupt Feral Speed.

Once you suffer the damage, you will:

>Stop running and fight the vermin (interrupts Feral Speed)
>Attempt to headstomp on it while mid-air and keep rushing for the exit
>Ignore the rat and keep rushing for the exit

>Average of 3 will be used to determine any attack's power multiplier.
I was gonna eventually comment on Bo3 consistently leaning high and with opposed rolls w/modifiers it was always gonna be fairly big, this is nice.

The accuracy rule change makes sense, degrees of success mechanics tend to validate modifiers and skill levels in the first place too, making different opposition bonuses of 5 5-15 10-25 be differences that actually matter.

>>4373301
No interruption? No problem!
>Ignore the rat and keep rushing for the exit

>>4373294
>- Average of 3 will be used to determine any attack's power multiplier. It was Bo3 before, which meant the roll multiplier was always high and all attacks were always too damaging.
oh boy this is going to be fun, there's no way we'll actually have the collective mental capacity not to roll if it only drags down the average

More like our character is neutral and doesn't really question the social dynamics of his tribe.

Obviously, by hitting the demon's eye he doesn't wish to be ruled by his desires for power. He wants to be respected, but does not crave power at all cost. The tribe simply respects brute strength/fighting capability.

We did not know our god is a demon from hell. It changes things. They could've just been a neutral plane spirit of the forest, which is brutal but not evil. I doubt Hyenus won't have doubts about everything now they have left the cave.

“Hold on tight, Daitzsa!” you warn your friend. She does as you ask.

There’s no time to fight! You use your speed and momentum to jump as high as you can over the vermin... but the rat quickly lifts its arm up and swipes your chest with its sharp claws! “OOOOOOOOOUUUUCHHH!!!” you yell in pain!

Hyenus: 9 / 26 (-2 HP, Severely wounded)

… You cannot let this attack stagger you! A moment of hesitation will mean your demise!

Daitzsa uses her own claws to harm the rodent while you’re in mid-air! “SQUEEEEEEAAAK!!!”

You keep running, trying to ignore the pain of your new wound!

You feel weak. The new injury has worsened your state. You're not as fast as you were moments ago, even in your feral mode. The vermin is chasing after you, but at least you’re still fast enough to leave it behind, and it eventually gives up.

As you run through the hallway while being watched by your furious deity’s eyes, many thoughts about the demons' nature begin to cross your mind. it was not until this day that you felt Gnolrek's presence stalking your soul, seeking your annihilation... it’s horrific.

All the tribes worship different devils. Your god is a Demon of Savagery, the representative of your clan’s ways. You were never an ardent worshipper - you were more concerned with slacking off and daydreaming about being a great warrior, earning the respect of your people and becoming Gnolrek's champion, because it's a respected title. But despite your lack of commitment, you always knew that He plays an important role in your pack's lives.

The tribes of the forest have earned the humans' wrath due to all the demonic rituals and raids. Considering your premonitory dream, maybe it’s your destiny to fight a human leader... that is, if the future hasn’t been altered by your actions. After all, not all the predictions your shaman gives end up happening. They do most of the time, but not always.

You have no idea of what will happen to you and your friend once you escape this cavern, but you know one thing for sure: with one small decision, your life has changed forever.

You continue running for your life, trying to avoid distracting yourself with these thoughts.

Daitzsa notices you are in pain, and she starts caressing your head. “Hyeny, we are very close to the entrance! I know you can do it! You have powers that no one else in the tribe possesses! Your potential is immense... my heart is convinced that you can do anything if you set your mind to it!” Your friend gives the top of your head little kisses. She gives you the strength and courage to keep moving forward!

Eventually, you get to a hallway where there are no more eyes in the walls. The air is getting cleaner as you advance, and there is increasing daylight entering the cave. You are getting close to exit! You run even faster than before, anxious to leave this horrible place...

“How unfortunate of you to stumble upon me, only a few meters away from leaving this cavern, the only place we can move around… for now.”

The creature is blocking your path. You are shocked at the sight of someone who looks so similar to you.

“Before you do anything stupid, heed my words. I am Suneyh, the Doppelgänger demon. The big guy has ordered me to capture you, but that is not what I desire. I have an offer, if you are wise enough to listen. I shall be fast to explain, for my friends are on your tail.”

D: He could've been dangerous because he hates demons and the gnolls who worship them, and he is capable of repelling both... Who doesn't hate demons? I guess the gnoll shaman and the more faithful followers of the shaman.
Anyways...

Something is fishy here. How did this demon get here before the others? Maybe it’s an illusion created by Gnolrek to distract you!

You scan the ground, searching for a small rock. You grab a pebble and aim to the doppleganger’s body. "I'll listen” you tell him, “but first, I'm going to lightly toss this pebble at you to make sure you aren't some sort of illusion. I'm sure you understand."

The demon chuckles. “Ha, ha… suit yourself.” Only now you notice his voice is identical to yours. You toss the pebble at him…

… and it bounces off his chest. Well, that confirms it. Unfortunately, it’s not an illusion, so you’ll hear what he has to say before considering other approaches. He is a demon, though, so you doubt anything he says will be agreeable. “Fine, speak up!” you tell him. You are not so stupid as to rely solely on his words, though, so you very slowly start advancing forward as he speaks...

“If you are wondering how I got here before the others,” the doppelganger says, “it’s because my magic allows me to phase through walls. It was difficult to keep up with you, but my ability helped me to reach you in time. A power my dimwit brothers don’t have.”

The doppelganger scratches his chin, his evil grin remaining unchanged. “Listen. As you may know, you are heavily injured. Fighting you in that state would be displeasing to me - it would be an unfair battle, and I deeply despise the notion. As a doppelganger, I crave for one-on-one fights on even terms and conditions.”

“You’ll let us go, then?!” Daitzsa exclaims. “Wait, babe. I’m not done talking yet” the demon calmly replies before resuming his speech. “Anyway… that is not the only reason I do not wish to fight. You see, I have assimilated many bodies in my lifetime… but never one that holds so much potential as this one. If you train harder, you’ll eventually be able to fight against our horde, and I would become one of the strongest demons if I assimilate you at your peak.”

“Hyenus…” Daitzsa whispers to you. “I think he’s trying to earn time for his friends to arrive!” That’s exactly what you were thinking. It worries you that the doppelganger may be distracting you on purpose. “Get to the point!” you yell at him.

“I was getting there” the demon responds. “This is my offer. It’s more of a favor, now that I think about it.” He points his finger at Daitzsa. “Give me the woman you are carrying on your back, and I shall allow you to escape without hurting you. I give you my word that your friend’s time in Hell will not as horrible as it could be, as long as you give her up peacefully.”

Daitzsa is shocked at the doppelganger’s petition! “What?! NO! Is this a joke?! What kind of offer is that?! Hyenus, let’s kick his butt!” Your friend gathers the strength to stand up and assumes a fighting stance!

The demon ignores your friend and keeps talking. “I am a very high-ranking demon, so I have the authority to keep her safe from the true horrors of Hell. She would be one of my simple servants, and I’d never mistreat her, for I am a gentleman compared to other demons.”

“Screw you!” Daitzsa shouts furiously! “I refuse to be a demon’s slave, or a ‘servant’! I know exactly what you want you mean by that!”

“No” The demon says, looking at your friend. “Again, I am not like the others. I do love savagery, torture and spilling blood just like the others, but when I say I will do something, then I *will*. I shall never go back against my own word. And I promise I won’t treat you as poorly as the other demons would, as long as you know your place here."

The doppleganger looks back at you. “If you refuse my offer and choose to put up a fruitless fight against me instead, then I’ll be forced to harm you and knock you out before throwing you out of the cavern. But that’s not all… once your companion is captured by my brothers, I shall do *nothing* to protect her from them. And boy, you don’t want that to happen. They are capable of stuff you wouldn’t even imagine. You will regret angering Gnolrek for the rest of your life - you shall receive dreams every night of what they do to your friend, making you regret your moronic mistake by getting her into this mess.”

Daitzsa’s voice is quavering, and her body is shaking with terror, but she does her best to remain courageous. “S-SHUT UP!!! Hyenus, we are wasting time! We must get past this… this beast! The exit is right ahead us!”

“Sorry, but you’ll have to start getting used to the idea of staying here” the demon says, gazing at Daitzsa. “I am as strong as your friend is, except I am not injured.” He looks back at you. “Regardless of what you do, ‘Hyenus’, you will survive. And this woman being kept as a prisoner in Hell will serve as an incentive for you to grow stronger and come back to rescue her. I shall wait for that day anxiously, so I can assimilate your powers and we have a proper fight!”

The demon claps his hands. “There you go! That’s my offer. To sum it up: if you leave your friend here, you are free to leave and she won’t suffer as much while she stays here and you train for your eventual return. But if you fight me, and lose… your friend will *know* why Hell is called like that. You’ve got two minutes before my brothers arrive, so make your choice.”

The doppelganger hasn’t realized that you have slowly advanced forward. There is not much distance between you and him. If you attack him, you’d probably catch him by surprise.

New update on the battle system

- Some body parts are slightly harder to hit, eyes being one of the hardest spots but one of the most rewarding in terms of damage multiplier and debuff caused (blindness).

(The accuracy roll penalty for aiming to the eyes won't be present this time regarding the doppelganger. It wouldnt be fair if I applied it without you guys knowing there'd be a roll penalty now. But for future battles it'll be applied.)

- Aiming for and successfully hitting a specific body part many times in a row will give you a perk that gives a little bonus of +5 to accuracy when aiming for that body part. If you suddenly aim for a different spot, the progression towards gaining the perk will reset back to zero.

>Perk Progression: Eye-Gouger (2/10). +1 First boar, +1 The human in your dream
>>
Rolled 71, 66, 2 = 139 (3d100)

Hyenus will attempt to swipe the doppelganger's eyes with his claws while yelling at Daitzsa to RUN, then he will stay on the enemy's blindside and run away from the cavern.

>Roll 2d100 for Hyenus.
- First die is for attack accuracy, best of 3. (1d100 + 16. +5 Agility, +10 Agility (Feral Speed), +6 Unarmed skill, +5 Unarmed skill (Feral speed), +15 Surprise attack, -25 Severely wounded)
- Second die is for attack damage, average of 3. (1d100 + 50. +100 Eyes, -50 Severely wounded)

>Hyenus will attempt to swipe the doppelganger's **eyes** with his claws while yelling at Daitzsa to RUN, then he will stay on the enemy's blindside and run away from the cavern.
Eyes here is plural.
I assume that this means he did a vertical swipe, which makes hitting both eyes possible and the nat100+16 attack accuracy roll means he can surely hit both eyes.
even of the doppelganger rolls a nat100+5+3, he will get hit on both eyes, but the damage will be greatly reduced, but he will still be completely blinded for a good while.
>>
>>4375766
the eye in the wall was not trying to dodge us
>>
>>4375832
Oh, and if he doesn't roll a nat100+5+3, he will lose his eyeballs, and if he crit fails or gets a similarly bad roll (up to 12+5+3), those eyeballs will pull the optic nerves connected to them, causing brain damage from the force of the pull.

(Doppelganger has activated Bloodthirst)

The blind doppelganger uses his ears to predict your friend’s position and lunges at her! “YOU ARE NOT GOING ANYWHERE.”

Rolling for Doppelganger's evasion, best of 3. (1d100. +5 Agility, -5 Lightly wounded)
(Dodge skill, Blindness and Bloodthirst's defense penalty are not a factor as the Doppelganger is not defending himself against you. The challenge is to beat his speed and aim your kick accurately)

so how do we deal with OUR tribe? not only do we need an excuse, the shaman might or might not be informed about this. And he might or might not care about us absolutely shitting on gnolkek. Daitzsaa might get more lenient treatment but in the event of the shaman knowing, we can't know whether the shaman is going to treat us, especially since he hates our guts. He might even fuck us over in our sleep.

so
daitzsaa's gonna get casca'd
we can't go back to our tribe because gnolrek will dreamspeak the shaman
we're going to be on decimal health between wolf slayers and tuft ears

this is fun

so should we use bloodthirst as soon as feral speed ends in a last ditch effort?
>>
why not change allegiance to another tribe? we can begin anew
Tufted Ears use armor, that can be useful to us.
>>
Note: Hyenus's strategy is to stab the eyes then attack the rest of the body with quite quite attacks, maybe he can sneak to slash this demon's neck.
He wouldn't even need to move slowly to do that, because when the demon lands and barely hits Daitzsa (but still lands a painful hit though), the echoing sound of him landing after barely hitting her will mask the quieter steps Hyenus takes to kill him.
It is basically a stealth kill roll with no need for an accuracy check.
>>
>>4377340
I doubt we can seeing as that power is linked to the demon god thing that is currently trying to rape and/or kill us.

>>4377344
>>4377340
in the first place, it's once/day, and we used it in our fight vs daitzsa
>>
>>4377348
Yeah I also take it back since I realized our doppelganger will definitely use feral speed the moment ours runs out in order to snatch datz and that's probably what he was stalling for, we need to somehow carry dodge her out of here before he activates it or we're losing.

he's fucking blind my friend, and also I think he can only manifest for so long, else why isn't he out and about always?

Even after destroying his eyes, the doppelganger is stubborn enough to keep your fríend from escaping! It's time to teach him a lesson about knowing when to give up! You chase after him and jump in the air, lifting your legs to give him a great kick on his back!

There’s no time to catch him, it’s up to your friend to evade his attack! Surely she’ll have no trouble with it, right?! He’s blinded – there’s no way he can get a hit on her!

>79 Doppelganger Accuracy vs 74 Daitzsa Evasion = Graze
>(26 Strength / 4) * 0.83 (+1.26 (76 Roll), -0.33 Legs, -0.1 Lightly Wounded) * 0.6 (Graze) = 3.2 HP damage to Daitzsa, rendering her unable to stand up

Daitzsa sees the imminent danger and tries to run even faster, but her wounds slow her down, and the demon manages to kick her in the right leg! It’s a powerful hit, and she falls to the ground yelling in pain!

>Daitzsa: 2.8 / 28 HP (-3.2 HP, Critically wounded)

Your friend desperately tries to crawl outside, only a meter away from the exit, but the bastard puts his foot on her head and prevents it!

(Doppelganger ends his Bloodthirst)

The blind demon turns his face in your general direction. His twitching ears show he’s attentive to your movements, and he speaks in a low, whispering voice. “A few more steps and she’d have escaped my grasp. We cannot set foot in untainted areas – we’d be sent back to hell if we did.”

The doppelganger puts his hand on his face, caressing his wounds. “The loss of my sight shall be prevented by my healers, so I can forgive this offense… as long as you don’t attack me again.”

He lifts his other hand with his index finger up. “You have ONE more chance to leave your friend here with me, and I shall prevent my brothers from hurting her while you’re gone. But try to help her again… and you *know* what will happen to her once she’s our prisoner.”

He can only hear.
Meaning we have to "jump strike" with a roar, use another point as the real bounce/strike location and then strike him to free Daitzsa.

There's no way he'd properly account for it in this condition. And feral speed is the only way we could make it happen.

screw getting daitzsa into the sunlight. If he's in the sunlight he's gone. if we can combine a two part lunge with a rock (can't hear or see it), we can probably fake him out just enough to step outside the cave.

>you must either be fucking confused by the maximum autism or laughing your ass off.
Both hahaha, gotta say you guys make fun choices. This is also the perfect opportunity to add Wrestling to the battle system.

- The Strength roll formula for wrestling is similar to unarmed attack damage: (Strength / 4 ) * (1d100 +-* Various modifiers) * (Graze score)
- Both the wrestler and the wrestled must do a Strength roll. The wrestler's Strength roll has to be greater than his target's in order to succeed his wrestling move, or else it'll be resisted.


Hyenus will try to suplex the doppelganger outside the cavern into the untainted area.

Rolling for Doppelganger.
- 1st, 2nd and 3rd die is for evading the suplex, best of 3 (1d100 - 27. +5 Agility, +3 Dodge skill, , +10 Hearing, -5 Lightly wounded, -40 Blindness)
- 4th, 5th and 6th is for resisting the suplex, average of 3 (1d100 - 40. -10 Lightly wounded, -30 Caught by surprise)

(Being a surprise attack, the Doppelganger doesn't manage to activate Feral Speed in time)


>Roll 2d100 for Hyenus's wrestling move
- First die is for accuracy, best of 3 (1d100. +7 Unarmed, +5 Unarmed (Feral Speed), +6 Agility, +10 Agility (Feral Speed), +15 Surprise attack)

>>
>>4378531
Apparently we're the weakest in our tribe, but we've been carried by our Bloodthirst and Feral Speed so far, in addition to some really good rolls.
>>
>>4378531
If you look at the description of our skills (novice, apprentice, kinda okay, normal..) aswell as daitzsas stats(I assume she is about normal) you can make the assumption that the average gnoll
>has about 30 hp
>has 15~ in his combat skills
>has an activatable ability
the stronger gnolls are probably at about 40-50hp with 20-30 in their skills with multiple abilities, so not a good fight for us.
>>
>>4378516
This honestly just affirms the obvious truth that going for the eyes always leads to a victory
>>
>>4378548
I thought we might've been above average since we were better at domming Daitzsa than her husband who's supposed to be one of the top tiers of the tribe, plus Daitzsa is no slouch herself
>>
>>4378523
Of course. There'll be a Shield skill and other weapon skills, and you'll be able to learn techniques for every weapon / unarmed style. Learning them will be locked behind your expertise level.

For example, a Master Unarmed technique you might learn in the future is doing a barrage of 100 punches in a row, but the accuracy penalty is huge, so it's suggested you do it when the opponent is stunned or cannot evade easily.

>>4378531
Here's the average power level of your tribe

Average Gnoll (Bloodseeker):
- HP: 30
- Strength 15
- Agility 15
- Spear skill: 10 (Adequate)
- Dodge skill: 10 (Adequate)

Gnoll Warrior (Bloodseeker):
- HP: 50
- Strength 25
- Agility 20
- Spear skill: 20 (Adept)
- Dodge skill: 20 (Adept)

Gnoll Scout (Bloodseeker):
- HP: 30
- Strength 15
- Agility 25
- Spear skill: 15 (Proficient)
- Dodge skill: 25 (Adept)


These stats may vary depending on the individual. Most of them also know special techniques, and the ones with the highest potential to host demonic power have Bloodthirst.
>>
>>4378548
The QM probably put Daitzsa’s stats Down a bit just for the sake of combat.
This stuff dosent matter anyway. HP, strength, none of that adds any eye defence.
>>
>>4378566
>A level 100 master unarmed technique would be doing a hundred punches in a row.
So Hyenus is the same type of gnoll as star platinum.
>>
>>4378566
damn, we're barely average fellas, what an achievement
>>
Here's the expertise level categories for your skills:

0-5 Novice (3 EXP needed per level)
6-9 Apprentice (6 EXP needed per level)
10-14 Adequate (9 EXP needed per level)
15-19 Proficient (12 EXP needed per level)
20-29 Adept (15 EXP needed per level)

40-59 Master (21 EXP needed per level)
60-79 Grandmaster (24 EXP needed per level)
80-99 Legendary (27 EXP needed per level)
100 Ultimate
>>
>>4378570
I'm willing to bet it's offset by the fact that we're able to get our stats up to 100, while most probably don't have that potential.
>>
>>4378570
Most gnolls have been going our and actually being useful their whole lives, we had those skills and ability’s while being useless, the doppelgänger said himself that we have more potential then any of the gnolls here.
>>
>>4378582
>>4378581
yeah we actually started putting effort like a month ago and we've already made it to average which is impressive

I'm pretty sure this is only the second actual day we started putting effort in since we got stabbed the first day and that spar with Daitzsa was the first thing we did after 2 weeks of recovering.

>>
>>4378603
In my (Race) Quest my players actually played smart and DIDN'T get the MC hurt most of the time. That and I'm more lenient than the QM of this quest, and didn't use rolls as much.

>>4378605
Kobold Quest is made by the same QM as this one, Goblin quest is made by someone else. Kobold quest is great, haven't read Goblin quest myself.
>>
>>4378605
Kobold Quest is made by the same person who is making this quest. Start as a Kobold leaving his family to get stronger

Goblin quest is good, starts as a rape goblin that surprising never rape a person. He stops being a fucking retard that can barely talk, to a goblin that looks on his past with regret and starts improving himself and righting wrong he had did. Trying to help other and failing. Zero to hero type of feel.

Skip the first two threads if you don't want to read anons choosing to be edgy, the later threads you'll see see Anons try to go lawful good path. It's also a draw thread and really not that edgy. Like right now, we're traveling with a group of lawful good people that will literally kill us if we so much as think about being edgy. All in a effort to get across the world to find the sister of a Kobold and stop a invasion of evil that may be due to us slightly and some Nat 1s.

Telling you he’d be sent back to Hell if he set foot outside was a big mistake! You lunge at the doppelganger, furious at him for hurting Daitzsa!

Your movements are fast, and not even the doppelganger’s ears can follow you! You quickly move behind him in the perfect position to wrestle him, and then you hook both his arms from the sides, preventing him from moving! He pathetically attempts to break the grip, but to no avail!

“W-what the hell? What are you doing?!”

You quickly turn around so your back faces the outside, easily overpowering the surprised doppelganger! When you are in position, you prepare to do your own special wrestling move -which you just invented-!

Once he realizes what you’re about to do, he tries even harder to break your grip, but it’s too late! He’s already being lifted up in the air!

Phew! That was the attack of your life. Even better than stabbing eyes.

As soon as the doppelganger is outside the tainted area, his body is automatically set on fire! His legs flounder desperately as he tries to break free, but with his head stuck, he’s completely helpless!

The doppelganger is quickly consumed by the flames in a matter of seconds. The only thing that remains of him is his ashes.

You perceive a presence leaving his remains… it’s the demon’s soul. It silently stares at you. You can feel the pure hatred in its eyes - its gaze is piercing, irradiating of evil and impurity.

It banishes in a blink, and the ashes are dispersed by the wind.

You turn your head to Daitzsa. She lies on the ground, gravely injured and semi-conscious. Seeing her like that makes you deeply regret having incurred Gnolrek's wrath.

... The demons will arrive soon. Better hurry.

It's a risk, but it's also risky to take Daitsza back to our tribe. The shaman might have already received a vision from Gnolrek.
Plus, since the other tribes worship different demons, they might appreciate that we fucked Gnolrek over.

From what your tribe's scouts have gathered:
Tufted Ears praise Xarzar, Demon of Cowardice
Molkaras praise Dagon, Demon of Lust
Wolf Slayers praise Ug'Drunuth, Demon of Death

Tufted Ears avoid direct combat as much as possible. They prefer to rely on ranged weapons, traps, backstabbing and other tricks to overcome their enemies, and they use armor.

Wolf Slayers despise all that is living, and seek to destroy life wherever it is. They keep their numbers low to avoid creating as much life as possible, but it's compensated by that every individual is very strong. Their territory is devoid of vegetation and animals, their hunger and thirst being satisfied by their deity.

Molkaras are many. They reproduce and grow fast, but they aren't strong individually. They like to abduct all sort of creatures -including humans- and do all sort of depravities.
>>
>>4380268
>we are now Dominions
Maybe Gnolrek isn't so bad actually.

>territory is devoid of vegetation and animals, hunger and thirst being satisfied by their deity
Ug'Drunuth is clearly the one with the most real world presence.

And, uh, good to know we should stay the fuck away from the Molk forever. Fuckin gnolblins.
>>
>>4380268
> They prefer to rely on backstabbing
yeah let's not visit them
I'm guessing we don't have a good relationship with any of the tribes.
We could try praying to literally any other demon for protection but they all sound horrible.
Plus, we angered our deity. There's no way the shaman would help us when we just did that. We could try to beg them to heal Daitzsa, but I wouldn't be surprised if they just wouldn't let us in the village.
That cave we were in was a portal to Hell, I really doubt every cave in the map is also a portal to Hell. We could try finding herbs and her heal like that. I don't know if we'll be able to do this in time.
Pretty sure the hummies wouldn't like us either since we're still devil worshippers in their eyes.

Are there any angels in universe?

I'll change my vote to carrying Daitzsa to a cave and treat her there, try to find healing herbs while carrying her

If we want to make amends with Gnolrek we'll probably have to commit an act of brutality in his name. We did defeat one of his demons but I don't know if that's points for or against. If we pray and he asks us for 30 eyeballs from slain enemies I'm game.
>>
>>4380312
Man, I don't want to pray to an asshole who wants to punish an innocent bystander.
The only reason why we wanted to be Gnolrek's champion was because we wanted to be acknowledged. This wasn't born out of any veneration of Him.
I would've been more open to the idea of praying for forgiveness if Daitzsa was left alone.
>>
>>4380316
What're we gonna do, then? I can't imagine Daitzsa's husband won't eventually come looking for her, and if we can't go back are we going to try living between territories or invading south and hoping for the best? I'm assuming Gnolrek will tattle to the shaman ofc. We're basically rudderless.
>>
>>4380355
Let's try and mend her wounds for now and try to send her to our tribe once she's in top shape. I don't know if that's the smartest choice for her but we can't possibly drag her along because of our mistake. Hopefully our tribe is more reasonable than a bunch of angry demons
we're basically fucked so let's not even try to enter the village.
we'll have to go somewhere safer for training. i'm sure there were other exiles in our tribe; we should try to find them
>>
>>4380358
We could coordinate a rendezvous point with her for when she recovers.

Like by the waterfall on the full moon

Or something like that.

Hyenus will tend to Daitzsa's wounds in the woods and then return to the tribe.
>>
>>4380708
Welp, brace yourself for a traitor's welcoming!
Though there is a slim chance that Gnolrek and the shaman could be amazed enough by Hyenus to spare him, or at least show him a tiny bit of respect... Or even fear.
He managed to defeat Daitzsa, then to surprise attack one of Gnolrek's eyes while injured by this fight, then to defeat a doppelganger demon which mimicked his best state yet, while heavily injured AND escorting Daitzsa out of a cave full of demons that are chasing them both, and then finishing that doppelganger demon off with what probably is the most badass suplex a gnoll has performed yet.
These are all actions a gnoll omega wouldn't even dream of doing in their wildest dreams.
>>
>>4380784
Unfortunately, they know none of that and Gnoltrek wouldn't tell them those actions at all, he'd just give the shaman a vision that Hyenus burns down all the tribal houses or something else to convince the shaman to get him exiled/killed.
Daitzsa's vouch wouldn't override the fact that the tribe sees the demon as a god.
>>
>>4380708

we'll see if she can even stand on her own after our unskilled treatment
>>
>>4380809
We can return her and leave after. Leave her on the edge of the village after setting a noise maker to draw attention (rocks and twine)
>>
>>4381066
Then they'll see that Daitzsa is lying there half-dead and Hyenus is missing. They could clearly figure out that we were involved and would likely think we left her for dead ourselves.

You gently carry your friend away from the cavern's entrance, finding yourself in the woods. Feeling the gentle breeze on your fur, seeing the blue sky and hearing the birds singing is greatly reassuring. There’s a cliff in front of you from where you can see the Tufted Ears’ tribe.

You hear growling and screeching behind you. As you turn around to the source of the noise, you see horrible beasts at the mouth of the cave, staring at you, furious that their targets are escaping and they can't do anything about it.

You escaped your god’s wrath, and with it, a fate worse than death for you and Daitzsa. But sooner or later, you’ll have to face the consequences of your actions. The shaman will definitely know what happened. Maybe you’ll have to make amends, or due to your past history, you’ll be exiled while Daitzsa gets a more lenient treatment… hopefully.

Regardless of what awaits you, your buddy's injuries are the top priority at the moment. You’ll think of what to do while you tend to her wounds. You walk into the dense woods, searching for a good spot to lay her down...

Daitzsa: 2,7 / 28 HP

A minute passes by, and you soon find a clear grass spot to lay Daitzsa on. Her eyes are closed, but she’s awake, letting out small moans of pain.

The fresh air filling your lungs lets you notice that Daitzsa doesn’t smell the same as when she asked you to take her. Both of your scents have been replaced by a foul smell, an unpleasant combination of sulfur and blood.

You examine her wounds. Blood keeps coming out from her right leg on the spot where the Doppelganger clawed her off. The loincloth piece you bandaged her with on the chest is soaked - you’ll have to replace it.

But... maybe there’s something else you can do before wrapping her up.

Back when you were a child, whenever you hurt yourself while playing, your mother would come and caress you while licking your wounds. It made you feel so much better, both in body and spirit. These good memories give you the confidence that licking your friend’s wounds will alleviate them and it'll lift her mood.

First the chest, then her injured leg…

… … …

Daitzsa opens her eyes. To your surprise and relief, despite her poor state, she’s still capable of chuckling. “It tickles… stop… ha ha HA ha…”

Your friend will make it. You’ll do everything in your power to save her!

You rip your loincloth to bandage her wounds. As you wrap her up, she speaks with a low and weak voice, putting all the effort in the world to mutter a single word. “H-Hyenus…”

“Shhh” you signal her not to talk, so she doesn’t waste her energy. “I’m fine… don’t worry… just a little *cough* bruised, that’s all…” Daitzsa smiles at you. Not only your friend remains strong in the face of adversity, but she also isn’t scolding you for potentially ruining her life through your actions. This only makes your regret grow bigger.

“Daitzsa” you admit, “I’m sorry. I did the stupidest thing ever at the wrong place and time, and I got you involved in this mess. Words can’t express how guilty and furious I am with myself... I almost got you trapped in Hell, and now Gnolrek hates us both, which may get us exiled from the tribe…" You gulp. "I’m sorry, Daitzsa. I really am. I promise I will try to remedy this in any way I can.”

Your friend stares at you for a few seconds, and responds with something else without addressing your apology. “Hyenus… I want to ask you something... what do you think… of Gnolrek? And all… our rituals... and traditions?”

You are surprised by her question. You talk about many things with Daitzsa, but for some reason both of you have always skipped touching your pack’s values and faith. She proceeds talking. “I gotta’ admit… I didn’t attend… to the Ritual of Breeding… this year…”

You nod at her words while wrapping her up. “Yeah, I got up during that night and saw that you weren’t there. What were you doing?”

Daitzsa is silent for a moment, then she speaks with a frown. Her voice is angry and full of life, as if she had gathered all her strength to speak. “I didn’t want to be there… because I HATE it, Hyenus… I hate our rituals… our traditions… I never wanted to admit it… until this day...”

Tears come out of your friend’s eyes. “I’ve always tried to fit in… pretending I like to spill the blood of innocents… and torture our enemies… we are raised and taught to enjoy it… but my soul rejects it since I was born… I don’t understand how our pack… enjoys sacrificing virgins… devouring human babies… flailing goblins alive… it’s all so… so decadent… I don’t know how to put it… but there is something wrong… with what we do, Hyenus…”

You tell Daitzsa your honest feelings. “I never cared much for our traditions. My only goal is to become stronger so that the others acknowledge my power and respect me.”

“Oh…”

“You’re not a pansy for not enjoying those things” you continue. “You’re a great and valiant scout who enjoys a good fight, and that’s all that matters to me.” She smiles and closes her eyes.

“Besides…” you add in. “I never thought demons were worthy of worship. With what happened today, now I want to get strong enough to show everyone why we don't need them.”

Daitzsa gazes at you, surprised. “To not rely on demons… it sounds crazy… we have followed them for generations… is it right to abandon our ways? Maybe we are in the wrong… for not being devout enough… “

She puts her left hand in her forehead. “I don’t know… I just don’t…”

You finish wrapping her up. This should help prevent massive blood loss until she gets properly treated on the tribe, but you must hurry up - her wounds are still bleeding, slowly weakening her.

You grab Daitzsa and begin the journey back home. Her weight and your injuries slow you down, but you do your best to keep up a fast pace.

Though you were worried that speaking may drain her strength, you change your mind and decide it may be better to keep her awake. You both need to invent an excuse for your return, anyway. But first, there's something you want to ask her...

"Daitzsa, I find it weird that you hate our tribe's brutality, yet you went crazy during our fight. Why is that?" When you voice your thoughts, she goes silent for a moment, then lets out a small chuckle. "Ha ha... good question... I've been... pondering about it too... *cough*"

"I love fighting, Hyeny ..” she explains, “I think our entire species do… but all the sacrifices the tribe does... the torture... the violence for the sake of it… I find no comfort in those things... the demons twist our warrior nature... in strange ways... “

There is a short pause. "When you dominated me...” she continues, “… it fulfilled a need in my heart... of being under control… of someone who appreciates me... and desires more than my flesh... a sentiment I never had with Gunyx… there is no tenderness in him... only brutality and bloodthirstiness…“

“Hyenus... you won my body today... but you won my heart... a long time ago... that’s why you dominated me… harder than my husband… has ever done… not because you’re stronger… but because there is a warmth in you… that none of the other males have…"

"You are... like your mother... in many ways... *cough* I miss her... she's the warmest person... I've ever met... I believe you inherited… many things from her... if you were as brutal as the others... you wouldn't have tried to spare… that goblin from weeks ago... don't you think?"

You nod. The topic deviated a little, but it doesn't matter. Remembering your mom is always nice, and you're glad your friend appreciates her as well. But now that you got that out of the way, you must invent a good story with her before you arrive at home.

You initiate the topic. “What do we say when we return, Daitzsa? I have a few ideas in mind, but-”

“There’s no excuse… that will work… the shaman will know… everything…” Daitzsa interrupts.

“Come on, don't be like that” you tell her. “Let’s have something in mind, just in case. How about I say that I found you injured in Molkaras’ territory while I was gathering herbs for the shaman? That would explain both of our injuries. I'd say I was ambushed by them while bringing you back here. What do you think? Could it work?”

You get no response. “Daitzsa?”

... ... ...

Your friend is too in poor shape to respond. You also notice she’s getting colder…

>Daitzsa: 1,6 / 28 HP (Near death)

Horror invades your heart as you realize your friend is dying. You must get to the tribe – and FAST! Fortunately, you are close enough. You find yourself back at the waterfall from where you entered the cavern with Daitzsa. It's only a few minutes from here!

daitzsas crimes probably aren't all that severe. She had no hand in that whole demon business at all, she was merely rescued from it. So the sum of her crimes is basically hanging out with us despite her husband telling us not to hang out with her. We're fucking gnolls, not muslims.

Don't come up with excuses for anything unless he asks, he might just think we found her if were lucky.

Oh, Gnolrek probably sent Gunyx or the shaman a vision that we were responsible for her injuries, that explains why the tribe was waiting for us, in the direction we were, and why Gunyx knew exactly where we were.
Props to Gnolrek though, thats some palpatine level thinking.
>>
>>4382311
I doubt Gunyx will give her time to recover before beating her again because she was with us. Pretty sure we still have each other's stank all over us too.
>>
>>4382334
The scent of blood might have washed that off, along with our second pass through the waterfall.
Besides of course her smell is on us, we carried her on our back because she was too injured to walk, it shouldn't be a problem given the circumstances.
>>
We should try to figure out what he and the tribe knows without giving anything away.
They might not know anything other than Gnolrek is angry at us. If he knows we're stealing his girl we're dead anyway.

This is the person you least wanted to see when you turned around, but you knew it was him. Who else could it be?

Your old cowardice kicks in, making you gulp out of fear for what is about to come. All you can do is hope a miracle happens, but what god is there to pray to except Gnolrek and the other demons? A god of blindness - someone who favors those who enjoy destroying their enemies' eyes, like you do? Or maybe Gnolrek’s rival deity, if he even has one? In your helpless situation, you send a quick thought asking for help to those entities, hoping they exist at all…

“G-Gunyx…” you stutter, “Daitzsa is badly injured. She’s cold, and might die soon if she isn’t treated. Please, help me carry her to the shaman’s hut…”

Gunyx is silent, staring at you with his cold dead eyes. Normally, he’d be threatening you or grab you by the throat. You have no idea of what’s going on in his head, but it cannot be good...

Suddenly, he speaks with his typical thundering voice. “THE MANGY WHORE CHEATED ON ME. I CAN SEE IT IN YOUR EYES, GNOLLET. DON’T TRY TO HIDE IT.”

You shake your head as hard as you can and insist on asking him to help you carry Daitzsa. The brute continues speaking. “THE OTHERS THINK YOU SAVED HER, BUT I SEE THROUGH THE OLD MAN’S LIES. YOU’RE LUCKY THEY SWALLOW HIS WORDS... BUT ONE DAY, WHEN YOU’RE ALL ALONE, I’LL MAKE YOU *PAY* FOR THIS. YOU’LL REGRET MESSING WITH WHAT BELONGS TO ME.”

… Wait, what is he talking about? The others think you saved her? The old man’s lies?

You have no idea of what to say, but something tells you that you better keep your mouth shut and avoid saying anything, unless asked.

Gunyx gestures you to let him carry Daitzsa. You turn your back so he can grab her. “Be careful, she’s in a delicate state” you say out of instinct, knowing how aggressive he can be.

Ignoring your words, he fiercely grabs your friend and drops her hard in his left shoulder. The harsh movement sends a shock to your friend’s injured body – her legs spasm as she moans in pain!

Would make sense though, he's definitly planning on making us his champion or something similar, doing us a few favours seems like a fair deal in exchange for us not trying to murder him.
A pretty forgiving demon, unless of course he plans on having Gunyx kill us later so nobody suspects their god is a demon.
>>
>>4383404
He might also be the type of demon God that respects power, we did straight up survive a hoard of demons and somehow defeated a high tier one
>>
>the others think we saved her

I can see many possibilities here
>it's something about, gnolkek he's bemused/impressed/wasn't actually the entity in the cave
>the old man is at fault here (probably the shaman) he doesn't actually follow gnolkek or has a more complicated relationship with him than pure devotion
>>
>>4383408
Probably
I have a far out theory about all this.
He might not be gnoltrek at all, he's a greater demon he should have the ability to convince beings he's their god.
We start questioning our religion/scoiety and he's banking on us trying to take down all of the "evil" tribes in the areaas they worship a "demon".
He might "feed" on the suffering in the surrounding area, or that us being here has some relation as the why he can't leave tainted areas, we end up getting rid of most tribes in the area, eventually dragging humans into the conflict by accident.
We fought a human in the dream/premonition so it's bound to happen at some point, and it is clear that some humans have the power to remove taint, if all those humans are gone then he might be able to leave the cave and do gnoltrek knows what to the world
>>
This is bad as well, he's now completley convinced that Daitzsa cheated on him, so now her beatings are going to get even worse.
We should also lay low for a good while and make sure that when we are out hunting/training we make sure the big bastard dosen't know what PLANET were hunting on.
>>
>>4383422
Once we've recovered we should go out of our way to fight Gunyx with our Feral Speed, or our Bloodthirst if we still have it. Maybe we can get Daitzsa to help us put him down.
>>
>>4383425
Lefties say "We should abandon the tribes and bring daitzsa with us, they are evil"
Right wingers say "we should fucking kill Gunyx and fuck his bitch and lead the tribe."

I just wanna hunt boar for gnolreks sake.

maybe we should take a minimum of bandages and stuff and let this heal naturally hwilst we train and shit. It's not like we're as completely fucked as daitzsa is.
>>
>>4383579
we should probably learn how to take care of injuries because clearly we're going to acquire dozens more.
>>
>>4383325
>Control your anger, walk past him and meet with your pack.
Gunyx looks like a pillar gnoll.
>>
Keep in mind that our tribe values monogomy heavily. If we want to take out Gunyx, we have to do it in a way that doesn't taint our (maybe) miraculously saved reputation with the tribe.
Also worried for Daitzsa when we inevitably long rest here. We should try to stay awake until she's recovered or convince the tribe to protect her.
>>4383325
>Control your anger, walk past him and meet with your pack
>>
>>4383636
this
i think we should try to learn as much as we can from the shaman or try to train after we're all patched up and not make any autistic decisions
>>
>>4383636
Perhaps Hyenus should look for kudinds once Daitzsa recovers, eating them as he finds them, he will be able to predict whether he has had enough to maximize the benefits while minimizing or avoiding the side effects, then ask the shaman to teach him medicine, and not interrupt the shaman while he is speaking, and delay his answers or comments when he is asked if he understands what he was told or his memory is being tested as to not be suspected of consuming kudinds.
His body getting used to consuming kudinds and needing a larger dose to achieve the same result counts as a side effect, so he will use small doses that have no long term effect on his brain and body, and he will know the correct dose by predicting it or asking the shaman about it.

We deal with him later.

This savage treats Daitzsa like trash, and that makes you furious! Unfortunately, there’s nothing you can do in your current state…

You walk past Gunyx, avoiding his gaze while trying not to look like you’re bursting with anger. He goes his own way to the shaman’s hut.

The bastard will soon get what he deserves. Just not today.

Your pack puts their attention on Daitzsa. They look concerned, but none dare approach the brute carrying her. “Why the hell is Gunyx grabbing her like that?” you hear a warrior say. Gunyx overhears the comment and responds by giving everyone a fierce look, which makes them look away and stare at you instead. Their first impulse is to look at your naked bottom, which makes you feel even more defenseless in the uncertainty of the situation.

Rurk is the first to approach you. “The shaman told us everything before you arrived. I’m glad you were close when the demon attacked Daitzsa.” He puts his hand on your shoulder, taking a glance at your wounds. “Though you didn’t escape unscatched, either” You simply nod, avoiding giving any explanations.

“How unlucky of you to get out after recovering for two weeks, only to get beaten up by a demon a few hours later” a warrior adds in, trying to sound serious but clearly attempting to hold her laughter back. You nod and shrug.

Tyrorg tries to approach, but he backs away and covers his nose as soon as he catches your smell. “Eeugh, man! You stink! Looks like you DID encounter one of those monsters, after all! How the hell did YOU manage to escape while carrying Daitzsa?!“

“I guess Hyenus is not as slow as we thought” you hear one of the warriors say. Rurk nods slowly, Tyrorg shrugs, and Diana looks as indifferent as always as she picks her nose and sticks out a booger. You just nod and smile at their words… it’s working so far.

Rurk frowns. “Those dirty Tufted Ears! I can’t believe we didn’t find out sooner they were preparing a summoning ritual! Did the scouts not find any suspicious activity during the past few days?!”

The scouts shake their heads. “None at all” one of them says. “Daitzsa probably found something out of place today, and decided to investigate on her own.”

“She’s always been a lone wolf” another scout comments, “but it’s a shame her recklessness resulted on this. At least she managed to interrupt the ritual before the summoning was complete, otherwise we’d have a demon marching towards us right now.”

“I don’t care for those Tufted Ears and their stupid demons!” Rurk shouts furiously! “Let them come, I’ll destroy them all with my bare hands!”

Judging by what they’re saying, Gnolrek told the shaman a very different version of what really happened! You know you ought to feel relieved. This is miracle – you were always optimistic, but you’d never thought this would end so well…

… yet you can’t help but feel that something is off here. Why would Gnolrek, the devil who tried to hurt you and your friend, have a sudden change of heart? The only reason you can think of is that you earned his respect by defeating one of his minions and outrunning the demon horde. Either that, or he doesn’t want your tribe to know that he nonchalantly tried to hurt two Bloodseekers. But he could’ve easily forged another lie if he wanted to punish you. It’s all so strange…

Your thoughts are interrupted by a feeling of weariness due to your injuries, and your concernment that the pack may begin asking questions you cannot answer. You tell them to excuse you as you start limping towards the shaman’s hut. Rurk gazes at you, and for some reason, his fit of rage ceases. He walks by your side and offers his arm for you to grab on. “I’ve got ya’. Let’s go.”

His kindness conflicts you. Rurk has never treated you with such respect before, but you don’t feel you’ve earned it. This whole situation was caused by your own mess-up.

You stare at Gunyx and your poor friend as they enter the shaman’s hut. Her husband leaves without her a second later, returning with the group. He’s still giving you that cold, murderous look.

The leader vociferates. “The Tufted Ears will NOT be left unpunished! We’ve had enough of their exploits – it’s time to wipe them out! Let’s postpone raiding the human camps - we must start preparing the ritual to summon our OWN demon!” The entire pack lets out a war cry!

You enter the shaman’s hut with the help of Rurk. “I hope Daitzsa and you recover soon. We’ve got much work to do.” With those words, he departs.

The old man is tending to Daitzsa. He helps her drink an invigorating concoction while disinfecting her wounds, suturing them and wrapping them up. The old man is working fast, aware of the risk of imminent death.

... ... ...

Several minutes pass by, and the shaman Is still tending to Daitzsa’s wounds. Not a single word has been spoken. You cannot take it anymore… you MUST know what will happen to your friend! “Is she gonna’ make it?!” you ask.

Without turning back, the shaman silences you with a gesture.

You recollect your thoughts and calm down. Better let him finish his job in peace. You don’t think he’s content to have you here, anyway. He will have to treat you again after being forced to spend two weeks taking care of you. You stand beside him, watching him work in silence…

… … …

About fifteen minutes fly by, and the shaman finally stops working. He stands up and meets your gaze, speaking with a neutral tone of voice. “The scout Daitzsa will survive, but she will need at least a month of recovery. Too much blood was lost.”

A heavy weight is relieved off your heart, and it’s replaced by tremendous relief. Your friend survived! “Thank you, old man!”

The shaman stands up and meets your gaze. There’s an uncomfortable silence filling the hut...

As you are about to say something to break the tension, the elderly man speaks first, sounding extremely annoyed. “Unbelievable! Just unbelievable! I spend TWO weeks tending to your wounds and needs, and not only you manage to spend a glorious three hours outside before having to come back, but you also bring another injured Bloodseeker with you!"

“Sorry” you respond, not knowing what else to say.

“No need to apologize, omega Hyenus. I am only fulfilling my role.”

“So… you’re not mad at me?".

“Not at all!" he explains. "You saved one of us, which is very honorable and courageous from your part. It will be an honor to take care of you for as long as you need, along with Daitzsa! There is no greater pleasure for me!”

Well we need to become strong enough to fight a demon army.

Diatza will be in too bad a shape to be escape before the end of the trials.

We need the backing of a god to protect Diatza... but even then it may result in the wiping of our pack, who are mostly "innocent".

what to do...
>>
>>4386150
train, ally with the dwarves, maybe even the humans, take the wolfslayer along, learn what he knows as an exile who relies on no demons. We have 30 days, maybe less if the demons realize we are working against them.
>>
>>4386145
>>Introspection. Think about what just happened and weigh your options
I'm not fucking going for this. First off, these demons tried to kill us and were gonna torture Daitzsa, the only person who gave a shit about us when we were a weakling. Second, they're holding Daitzsa's life over our heads now, why should we do anything they want? Third, all of these trials serve to empower these demons, the Trial of Mightiness is the most obvious one but I have some theories about the other 2
>>
>>4386145
We should stick around the Shaman's hut until we've healed to a reasonable degree, at least 20 HP I think.
Then we have to get stronger. The demons tried to kill us, we shouldn't submit to them. Maybe wean our tribe off demon worship, pointing out that we were able to defeat a demon ourselves despite our weakness.

>doing evil deeds for our gods that just tried to kill us
No way, fag. We're going to check on Daitza while also thinking of ways to quickly train ourselves. When we and Daitza are in good shape we're going to try and negotiate with the dwarfs. The rest of the gnoll pack are kind of dicks and I honestly don't care if other packs wipe them out, but maybe we should get Guntyx to help.
>>
>>4386156
Gunyx is the biggest dick of all, no way are we getting him on our side. The rest of our pack is warming up to us though, we shouldn't abandon them unless we have to.
>>
I have a theory about Wolf Slayer, he's a betrayer and looking at his picture, he looks strong. I think he used to be an ally of these demons before he figured out their plans and left them holding the bag. I think he is a potential ally if his story aligns with our, 2 Gnoll who demons wanted to make their champion teaming up might be too much for them. That's not even mentioning the Dwarves who's pushing back against the Demons
>>
>>4386152
Immediatly speaking, I'd sneak out of the village and go see the so called "last dwarves". Take care to take a route which can't be intercepted by gunyx, and don't pass by the eyes. The priest might know an even better lead.
>>4386154
10 days off isn't reasonable. We've only got 30 days at best. Do we heal even when doing things? At a reduced rate? We recovered a single hp whilst taking a nap and getting treated, so I assume we just get one hp everytime we sleep.
>>
>>4386160
Yeah I guess you're right, sticking around isn't productive if we only heal 1 HP a night. I was hoping that maybe the Shaman would be able to accelerate things.
>>
we do have to be careful though, we don't know how well Demons can know what we're planning or thinking. If they realize we're making moves against them, they might insta kill Daitza.
>>
>>4386163
Exactly, so avoid the eyes, if questioned(I assume they can't read our mind, things would've gone extremely different) tell them we're trying to gain their trust. The dwarf priest will atleast know more about the demons, but so might the wolfslayer.
>>
>>4386165
I think trying to meet up with the Dwarves is the best options but we need to figure out a good approach to gain favor with them, we are a Gnoll from a tribe that worships Demons, also I'm pretty sure we won't be able to speak their language. I think Dwarves first and after some sick training, we take the 21 mile hike to meet the Wolf Slayer and see if we can't team up
>>
>>4386146
Oh yeah, QM, I wanna ask 2 things, 1, are we gonna get a new thread soon? This one is about to be archived, 2, are we only gonna learn combat related skills?
>>
>>4386168
consider the first thing daitzsa told us about the dwarves, when she went deep into the mineshafts she was greeted by one shouting "HI DOGGY!" doesn't sound particularly malicious, and proves they can speak our language, daitzsa even remarked on it.
>>
>Please kill a deserter of the tribe, probably some gnoll who realised our demon worship and is a threat
>also go kill this dwarf army who are the only reason we are unable to leave hell and destroy civilisation.
We might be able to get the help of the dwarves and that wolfslayer if we want to stop the demons.

Also for those who read Kobold Quest. I was planning to continue the quest during July but I think I'm gonna stick to this one since I want to keep expanding the rpg system (which i'll use for kobold quest). I hope that's fine with you guys.

I think this one seems far more popular than koboldquest to begin with. I hope it keeps its momentum since a 2nd thread is much less likely to attract new readers I think.
>>
>>4386172
The dwarves should make an exception for us anyway, their smart enough to put together that the gnoll who's trying to speak to us was the thing being chased by those demons.
Maybe the priests can prevent our tribe from being possesed by the demons during the bloodseeking ritual.
>>
>>4386189
Yeah maybe seeking out the dudes who know anti-demon magic should be one of our first priorities. The fact that they're able to survive right next door to hell means they can probably help in some way.
>>
>>4386145

Go back to bed, there's no way we can do any of this stuff at 10 HP. Better to spend some of our 30 days healing than go in there half-dead.

I would suggest doing the Trail of Loyalty first, if we sneak in there at night we won't have to fight anyone except perhaps the parents. We can probably find a farm on the outskirts or something so we won't have to go into a proper city. After that we do the trial of Mercilessness and finally Mightiness. Azarod said we'll get buffs after each trial completed so it will become easier.

Disobeying them is retarded, do you really want to piss off our tribe, an army of demons and a literal god? A single gnoll hermit and a bunch of Dwarves wouldn't be able to save us even if we manage to befriend them. We'll get Daitzsa killed as well.
>>
Hyenus should plan:

Wait to fully heal.

Tell the shaman that you will need a few kudind leaves (even one is OK), then go gather a ton of them to predict if this plan works.

Write a message with game blood near the cave exit where he will fight the dwarves, then escape without fighting and destroy more of Gnolrek's eyes near each exit you pass by, the message should say:
"I don't know if this will end with my madness, or with Gnolrek dead... or both.
The three rituals will be done, or I and Daitzsa will die."

When kidnapping the child; leave a A4 paper in place of the child, yell what's written on it while fighting the guardians/parents if they find you and fight you, leave papers on their backs if they get killed saying "I was forced to do that." the mesage should say:
"Gnolrek's blade is on my neck, I will take it from him...
I will kill him with it or descend to madness while trying.
But to do that this ritual must be done."

The wolf slayer should be distracted by three messages on an A4 paper:
"Gnolrek's blade is on my neck, I will take it from him...
I will kill him with it or descend to madness while trying."
Wait a full minute before dropping another paper:
"I don't know if this will end with my madness, or with Gnolrek dead... or both.
The three rituals will be done, or I and Daitzsa will die."
Wait a full minute while aiming, then drop another paper at the point you are aiming at:
"I will be the next wolfslayer or die or descend to madness while trying.
If you die on my hands, this means I will be better than you at your duty as a wolfslayer.
Watch. Your. Eyes.
Because Gnolrek forced me with threats to me and Daitzsa to kill ya, sorry."
He will be alert, but not enough to dodge Hyenus's eye-stab.
Eye-Stab!
Yell: "I wish I wasn't forced to do this! I should've been your ally, but I was forced to be your worst enemy. No mercy! "
While he is crippled by the injuries from the fight, say:
""These enemies are rage, brutal, without mercy. But we. We will be worse. Rip and tear, until it is done.", isn't you the one who said that? I will do it for you, but I won't bandage those bleeding wounds, sorry for the painful death, see ya later!"

Then take on the army, but not before hitting more cave eyes, be sure to do that under their sight, the idea of a gnoll not even afraid of hitting the cave eyes while still in the cave will confuse and terrify them, also we need to test Gnolrek's patience and reduce his control, I bet he got angry when Hyenus hit his eyes because they are important for him.
use bloodlust and a pickaxe on them and use them to recover your bloodlust, repeat, repeat, repeat, and if demons apper: Rip and tear, until it is done or you are out of the cave.

The kudinds will help avoid injury and dodge attacks, and they will also make plans change slightly to help avoid fights and dangerous situations if possible.
>>
>>4386223
A literal god which dosen't seem to have any power beyond the cave other then visions and possesing people who let him in.
Releasing him onto the earth by getting rid of those dwarf priests sounds idiotic, his army of demons and all his powers haven't been able to dislodge a couple manlets underground.
The tribe will try to kill us and daitzsa if we can't prevent their possesion, but we can live as an exile if it comes to it, risking the entire population of the surrounding area or even the world because we re hoping that the demon's "grand plan" excludes us from the genocide he's going to commit isn't smart.
>>
The kudinds he should ask the shaman for are to avoid getting fucked (literally).
>>
>>4386223
We defeated their commander even though we were injured and had noob stats. The single dwarf managed to hold off lots of them. As things stand the demon is weak.

Doing these trials will make the demon and his followers stronger, and a threat to us and our tribe. And just how free will we really be as the champion of an evil awakened deity?
>>
>>4386310
All those tasks the demon gave us just seems like he's getting us to the do things that him and his entire army of demons haven't accomplished for thousands of years.
Other then getting us kicked out of the tribe and forced into exile he dosen't seem like any kind of threat.
>>
If we wish to ditch the demons we should aim to gain the favor of a god who is willing to offer us protection and guidance.
>>
Get fulled healed, lvl up our agility, dodge and stealth (only one exp left for all of them) then go see the dwarves to learn how they untaint the cave. Use the untaint skill on our tribe (hopefully that'll stop the possessions from happening.)
I am not going with this retarded demonic plan
I am certainly not stealing an innocent children, killing exiles or COMMITTING GENOCIDE.
>>
>>4386315
>Not killing children
We may have to if we don't want to demons to get suspicious, It feels like the safest one as it might not benefit the demons as much, unless you use the kid as a vessel to attack us if we betray them, but even then it's the better option.
>>
>>4386320
man i really don't want to dude
we've been given 30 days
if we have their word (doubt), that means they won't do shit for 30 days
we just have to find some godly protection and to find a way to protect our tribe from demonic possessions in that time frame so they can't do shit to us
afterwards, the worst that will happen is exile and being hunted down by Gnolrek's followers, which shouldn't be too much of a problem if we can find some godly protection. Hell, we might even go to the dwarves afterwards.
earning our tribe's trust will be helpful in the long run too

Alter my suggested plan, but not before Hyenus thinks of the original one, and not before he thinks of what you said:

Wait to fully heal.

train for agility and stealth, A LOT, in the first two weeks (minus the days full recovery will need, if he takes one day to recover, train for thirteen days, ten if recovery takes four days, etc...), I mean, enough to make your tribe think you stopped existing while you casually walk among them, and enough to also learn Daitzsa's after image skill if recovery takes a week.

Ask the Shaman for a few kudind leaves (even one is OK) to avoid getting fucked in Molkaras territory while foraging for the kudinds necessary for the next steps (Risk getting caught and fucked if he refuses to give you that one kudind leaf, the reward is much greater than the risk IMO, which is a tiny risk thanks to the week of stealth training)

Spend the third week learning about -and preparing yourself for- using kudinds... with the shaman's advice of course (be sure to eat at least two leaves before starting though, and don't tell the shaman about those two kudind leaves.), train yourself in secret on how to use them in combat and stealth at night and learn about kudinds at day.

Eat a few kudinds (double the dose maintained in the prep week.) to improve stealth by predicting where the parents/guardians of that child are.

kidnap that child.

"I do as I was told, Gnolrek."

Leave him in two meters away from the tainted zone (as an insult).

Don't let him know that it is an insult, and disappear once that child touches the ground.

Return to the tribe.

Go harvest the kudinds needed for the next steps, using one of the leftover kudinds

Take a pick, a bag of kudinds and a spear with a strap.


Go to the nearst wall eye cluster to the dwarves' forest cave exit.

"I do as I must, Gnolrek."

Activate bloodlust with kudinds in your mouth to avoid falling asleep from the kudinds.

With the imporved agility from feral speed and bloodlust, break as many wall eyes as the pick can handle, regenerate bloodlust by touching them, eat more kudinds if that fails, throw the pick with the last bit of feral agility left at the first demon that appears (or that child's head if Gnolrek possesed him, somehow, even if he possesed the child, which can't happen to a child , there can only be so little strength in a vessel that small.) then shred the demons as you predict their attacks and their exposed weaknesses as you escape.

The spear's strap should be the cheapest one available, so it can break while Hyenus takes the spear to his stance while escaping as to not slow him down.

The kudinds will make escape easier for obvious reasons, and escape to the dwarves forest.

Flip Gnolrek off when you are back to safety, then ask the dwarves to teach you how to untaint... or at least help them by breaking the eyes and defending them while they untaint the cave.
>>
bruh let's just leave, we don't like anyone in the tribe besides daitzsa, let's take her and get as far away from our people as we can. after she heals of course

>>4386145
The face of waking up with a dead boner and no hope.

If we do everything they say we're still fucked because it'll create a world we wouldn't want to live in in the first place. Clearly, we need to get Datz to the Dwarves at some point before any betrayal, putting her in a place the demons can't reach and destroying their leverage in the process. Shame about our parents and tribe. We'll have to be able to get her past Gun, of course.

Since it's not like we could get the whole tribe blessed with anti-possession rocks or w/e.

Stealing humans again so soon after the Ritual of Breeding is conflict bait, the demons are trying to use us to raise tensions with the human villages to stimulate their bloodlust economy and obtain a body that can't fight possession in the process. By the way, Sunny implied he'd be able to leave the cave with our body if we let him in. We can assume the same will apply to whatever child we provide them.

All of these options aren't even good tricks. This is obviously Gnolrek going "pick your debuffs before you inevitably betray me and I can enjoy throwing your actions back in your face." It's not even a "he might find out we're going to betray him" he already knows and every step of these goals is a signaler and baton pass to when he gets tired of the game or if we stop halfway and he can use each previous "trial success" against us. Every reward we get will be ceding control to them. We can't complete and be rewarded for any task, the power will be used against us unless we're 100% good demon doggy bitch. But that's just the obvious bit.

The general claims they're able to possess all of our people's bodies at the same time, as well as being able to alter their memories. Bad move little demon. He told us they can and when. It would be a problem if they could always do it, and if they could he would've done it in the cave. He slipped that it's conditioned to happen alongside a tribal ritual, and I doubt that's a coincidence given what we learned about our spiritual rituals upthread.

If we don't let our tribe and shaman carry out the next ritual of bloodthirst the demons won't be able to anchor in the first place and carry out the conclusion of their deal. The rituals are timing specific and require the tribe to let the demons in. But there's multiple other factions in play here, and some of them can be manipulated into interfering on our behalf. If want to try that it'll be messy.

Bigger problem; the Shaman is going to summon a demon against the tuft ears. It's unclear if this is going to happen at the ritual or prior to, but my instincts say that regardless of our own progress the demon is going to hover over Datz and be the primary actor against us in any betrayal. Should we fail by the time limit but successfully stop the possession ritual, then at a minimum we'll still need to be strong enough to kill one demon that is dangerous enough to threaten an entire tribe. Great.

>>4386376
a month for full recovery, the treatment itself is done. As long as she gets sleep and food she'll be fine sleeping her bloodloss off just about anywhere. It's like going to the hospital for surgery, yes you'll need months of recovery, but as soon as the actual surgery is done you can recover anywhere you're reasonably comfortable.
>>
>>4386407
I think we should encounter the dwarves with the excuse of learning how strong they are like anon said and learn the extent of their anti-hell abilities. If there's a form of magic or a spell that can interrupt hellish rituals and they're willing to part with it then this is our game and they can't do shit so long as we don't screw up our timing. Worst case is we can't gain their trust and will have to steal Holy from them, somehow. Ergo agility and stealth.

As for training. Barring, I dunno, ripping a fleshstone eye out of the hell cavern and shoving it up to the start of our transverse colon as a demon-power suppository, or the same for a holy herb, we need to focus the most beneficial stats against multiple opponents and outclassing the basic stats of single-target large opponents like Gunyx and Big Demons.

Mechanically that's means we'd require at least an agility bonus in the range of 34+ or whatever is above the tier that is above normal, and then feed that bonus into growing dodge and stealth. Stealth because it can benefit our travel and we can be more "choosy" with encounters, dodge because obviously we already take far too much damage to fight against anything for long periods of time. Spear and Unarmed need to get up to at least normal, though what I'd personally prefer is stealing magic from somewhere to compliment melee skills. Relying only on conventional strength and no subterfuge against the forces of hell will get us what we were about to get in that cave. Further, training purely strength and health won't mean anything at all if we just keep taking hits, even with the recent combat changes fighting is too dangerous for any reasonable tanking.

Anons suggested before that we should learning healing or herbalism from the Shaman if we can, although I'm unsure if it would spread our efforts too thin we should try to get some basics at least before we leave. Suturing, stemming blood loss, what herbs work against infections, basic stuff that Hyenus isn't too stupid to mess up and only takes a little practice to get right. I do think that sleeping concoction the Shaman whipped up would be great against any opponent who doesn't have a focus retainment ability like Bloodlust, but once again, I dunno if we'd be spreading ourselves too thin and relying on tricks over sheer dodge prowess and inventive wrestling maneuvers.

To sum; Recover while pestering the shaman for knowledge and useful skills, then train with an agility focus before or after trying to get to the dwarves (before pretending to do any other goal since they're proven to have magic that works on our enemy), and whatever comes after that depends on what we learn from them. Basically >>4386315

The idea I guess is to game it because it's all we can do really. Those two stats specifically (agility, dodge) will define our combat engagement length, and boy do we know we'll need to engage in long fucking combats.
>>
>>4386416
I think there's a lot of potential in it. We need to fight magic with magic, at some point, since beating demons only sends them back to hell with knowledge on how we fight. Always having to once again fight an opponent that can learn from its failure will inevitably destroy us, so avoiding a fight until we can destroy them pretty much makes the most sense. We should definitely ask the Shaman if kudinds can be used the way you're suggesting. Because if they can, then oh boy, there is so much bullshit we can pull off to compliment our plans and training.

For example, the doppleganger had the magical ability to copy whatever we had. Other big demons of other types will have their own kinds of powers. We need real power to be free of them, and I have a "story doubt" feeling that relying on Kudinds will take us more than halfway in any goal since they're rare. And I'd want to use them in the intervals that would matter most.

Assuming we find some, we need to be super careful how and when we use them. Hell, even just stocking them up prior to a big combat or micro-dosing as you suggest could really pull us through some bad situations and that's enough to trigger my "don't use the item until you really need it" rpg sense which creates this whole hoarding feedback loop of having 99 ethers etc. It's likely there's going to be a set limit we can withstand on top of the already set availability limit, just like anything else that could break a story.

So I think we should pester the shaman about their details, side-effects, w/e, then get some and experiment to find out more before creating plans that rely on them. After we're more familiar with their limits we can really game and abuse them to our utmost ability on crafty and huge plans.

>>4386476
this but put it on your head like a headband, assert dominance by style
>>
Some small details just in case w/e or something. The reason I suggested a minimum of a high agility bonus is because, most likely, all the strongest warriors in our tribe can use the ability we have for a +30 to offensive rolls and DOUBLE strength. So imagine Gunyx or the leader not just as big guys, but fast big guys with double strength. That's a stupidly fucking dangerous rape train waiting to happen. But it's also the opportunity we'd need to get past their defenses in a fight, which would only be possible from a position of superior agility by out-bonusing their bloodthirst.

Although it's probably dangerous and I'm not certain exactly of how, but It should be possible to take in demonic power without allowing demons to control us. The evidence I have for that is the inherent demonic ability that we inherited from being born to our tribe; Bloodthirst. The one that the General claimed he'd upgrade for us. Logically, demons don't share power without a reason and we can't trust that deal. However, Bloodthirst is something they gave the tribe a long time ago and is so far just being passed on, and we're not possessed when using it and having it doesn't automatically make us possessable. There is a mechanic, a ritual, or some power granting spell that permits demons to give power without being able to control it or take it away after the fact.

Logically, it should be possible to take power from demons without giving them influence over us. I have no idea how we'd do it, but we know the mechanic exists, and the more you know etcetc.

we are in quite a pickle right now

>>4386306
> but we can live as an exile if it comes to it
No we can't. Our only friend is one female gnoll who's recovering from the verge of death. All the other tribes including the Bloodseekers will hunt us down.
>>4386310
> We defeated their commander even though we were injured and had noob stats.
That was only because we forced him out of the cave. If he could have went outside he could have killed us and Daitzsa easily.
> Doing these trials will make the demon and his followers stronger
It will also make us stronger, which is our goal from the very beginning of this quest.
> and a threat to us and our tribe
Not when we're on the same side.
> And just how free will we really be as the champion of an evil awakened deity?
We're already not free as a member of a tribe. Unless you want to run away and live like the Wolf Slayer we might as well serve the master that gives us more power.

> Other then getting us kicked out of the tribe and forced into exile

Anon we're about to go against demons by learning from a Dwarf priest and Daitzsa fell for us because we're pretty moral and don't really care about random bloodshed
>>
>>4386972
>Anon we're about to go against demons by learning from a Dwarf priest

Why would the Dwarves even help us? They're not exactly friends with Gnolls, they are likely to attack us on sight.
>>
>>4386913
undecided between sleeping and fortress, just voting against

>>4386955
>Not when we're on the same side.
And how long is that going to last after the demons eat/destroy/conquer the world?

>We're already not free as a member of a tribe.
This can and likely will change as we grow stronger, and even if it didn't, we're a hell of a lot more free than we would be during our very limited lifespan as a slave to demons.

>>4386980
On the contrary, the dwarf that Daitza encountered seemed entirely friendly. I highly doubt they wouldn't even let us talk, and if we can explain that we have a common enemy it should be easy to work with them.
>>
>>4386980
one of them said “HI DOGGY!!!” when they saw Daitzsa in Gnoll language, so they seem friendly
>>
>>4386913

Yes, is there something wrong with that?
>>
>>4387048
no i've just never seen that happen
i didn't know this was allowed
>>
>>4386913
>Head to the dwarf fortress
I'm not too worried about HP, dwarves have good clerics and they seem friendly enough
However, I don't think we should leave Daitzsa here. If the treatment is already done and it's mostly just rest that she needs, we should:
>Sneak Daitzsa out with us.
For one, Gunyx might not leave her alive if we just bail. Worst case scenario, Gnolrek figures out we're not going along with his offer and the entire tribe turns on her after he spills the beans.

>>4386955
It's not worth trying to fight moralfagging in /qst/. The best you'll get is CN almost always.
I'd be perfectly fine with following the worship/champion route, if only for the reason that going against a bloodthirsty god at our current level of strength is retarded.
A lot of people forget that Hyenus's dream was to be acknowledged by Gnolrek as his champion.
>>
>>4387084
I feel like Gnolrek is gonna possess and agro Gunyx so we're forced to go along with what they want after we did jackshit for them in 3 weeks
>>
>>4387089
That's what the training is for! (supposedly)

How do kudinds work?
My theory is that it can only be one of two things if it needs to be simple, it is just a herb after all, and it should have direct and simple effects, but premonition dreams with choices done in them don't seem simple:
A: it makes you remember the future as you are reminded of it by seeing the present that leads to it, it also can cause lucid dreaming, but those lucid dreams are mostly manipulated by the herb's future memory and actions done by the dreamer in the dream can decide the future (most useful if exploited, could explain how Hyenus could make decisions and choices in the premonition dream.)
B: it makes you see what will happen in the future as you dream or think of the future, choices done in the premonition dream are choices the dreamer is sure to make with the predicted results. (can be exploited the same way as before but it is a bit slower and less practical in combat, still just as useful in stealth, also explains premonition dreams with choices in them.)
These two possibilities are based on the facts that:
-Hyenus could make choices while in the first premonition dream. (He could've somehow spared a very weakened ultimate enemy if he chose to.)
-Hyenus's premonition dreams are not always useful. (The second one is probably too far into the future, if it was even a premonition dream.)
-The gnoll shaman can use kudinds without getting knocked out by their effects, and can consistently make good use of them. (else he would choose to think deeply instead)
-kudinds have no connection to demons, they help those who eat them to connect with their inner self and give them the power to predict the future on a limited* level (source: the shaman.)
*Limited as in Hyenus has yet to encounter the ultimate enemy, and it doesn't look like he is becoming as strong as in that dream anytime soon, plus it doesn't look like this strength is acquired by carrying out the tasks Gnolrek told Hyenus to do, because Gnolrek doesn't look like he was by the time this dream happens, the ultimate enemy was fighting for the future of his people, and there is no future for his people or even a possibility of him becoming that strong or even existing if Gnolrek was unleashed.

Update on the HP recovery system.


1) There are six tiers of current HP state.
a) Healthy (100% of max HP)
b) Lightly wounded (75% - 100%)
c) Moderately wounded (50% - 74.9%)
d) Severely wounded (25% - 49.9%)
e) Critically wounded (10% - 24.9%)
f) Near death (under 10%)


2) You will gradually recover HP every hour that passes, regardless of whether you rest or not. These are the recovery rates (per hour):
a) Lightly wounded: 1% HP
b) Moderately wounded: 0.5% HP
c) Severely wounded: 0.2% HP
d) Critically wounded: 0.1% HP
e) Near death: 0.02% HP


3) Doing intense physical activity while Moderately wounded or worse may damage your body and worsen your recovery, though it varies depending on your state and the nature of your wounds. A moderately wounded person may still be able to function normally, while someone near death generally shouldn't move a single muscle.


Example of these changes:
- Hyenus currently has 10 / 26 HP (38.4% HP, Severely wounded)
- After 56 hours, he'll reach 13 / 26 HP (50% HP, Moderately wounded)
- Once he has 13 / 26 HP, he'll need to wait 50 hours to reach 19.5 / 26 HP (75%, Lightly wounded)
- Once he has 19.5 / 26 HP, he'll need to wait 25 hours to reach 26 / 26 HP (100%, Healthy)


As for Daitzsa, it will take her about 25 or 26 days until she is Moderately Wounded, at which point she'll be able to function relatively fine.
>>
>>4387217
>106h to reach 75%

Yeah, that's it. That'll be our agility XP. Sneaking and running away from Gunyx. Oh god we're fucking toast.

Hyenus will meditate on his experience, weigh his options, then go back to sleep. He won't go to the dwarf fortress tomorrow.

This will be the last update of the thread.
>>
>>4387243
listen now we have one week or two to think about our options
we're gonna make it and we're gonna kek on Gnolrek and preferably on all of the other demons
>>
>>4387235
No
>>
how fast do we heal again? Cause 1 HP per day ain't gonna cut it, we'd waste like 2 weeks healing ourselves
>>
>>4387217
Well, I guess we're healing.

Should we try to clean things up with Gunyx or just let it be? Or just kill him? Daitzsa is going to be vulnerable for our entire time limit and we can't protect her personally.
I guess if Gunyx really wanted to do something to us or her, he would have done so already.
>>
>>4387288
he said he'll make us pay when we're alone
unfortunately we're gonna be alone for the majority of the next three weeks sooo
>>
>>4387052
It doesn't mean anything lol
>>
>>4387217
its gonna take 5 days to get fully healed, time is of the essence, we can't waste 1/6 of our time limit just waiting to get healed when there are dedicated healers in the Dwarf Fortress
>>
>>4387752
Except we're currently in the middle of a Gnoll tribe with our own dedicated healer tending to us. We shouldn't take the risk to go to the dwarves for the possibility that 1: the dwarves will help us and 2: they have healers who can heal us faster than our own shaman.

DAMN IT! You KNEW something was off! There’s no way a demon like Gnolrek would’ve forgiven you so easily!

And to think you wanted to be his champion… Screw the title! You don’t give a crap about it anymore! Does he really think he can manipulate you into obeying him after threatening to hurt you and Daitzsa?! He wants to punish your friend for NOTHING! You refuse to obey a god that treats his own followers like trash! He and that goat can stick those trials in their butts!

It’s incredible how this all started with something as simple as destroying a wall engraving… if it wasn’t for your actions, you’d still remain unaware that your people are nothing but puppets for the demons’ amusement!

You start thinking of what to do, weighing all your options and your potential allies,.. there MUST be a way to oppose them!

Alright… first of all. Your people are not ready to learn the truth yet.

The goat said that the other packs will destroy your tribe if you tell them what *really* happened to Datz and you. The only solution you can think of is that your pack becomes strong enough to stand their ground without having to follow Gnolrek… it’s either that, or all the tribes of the forest must be cut off from their demonic powers, somehow.

You may have to convince the shaman and your fellow tribe members to train you and teach you useful knowledge for all the challenges that await you. But you must avoid telling them about the demon threat for now.

Opposing a demon god sounds like a death wish. Since you cannot rely on your pack, there must be someone else who can help you... but who?

The dwarves! The goat said they keep the forest untainted... they're clearly enemies with Gnolrek, so they may be willing to help you if they know you are on their side!

You’ve heard legends about dwarves. They are like “mini-humans”, according to the shaman. The dwarf race was wiped out hundreds of years ago after they went into a grand-scale war with humans.

Judging from how one of them greeted Daitzsa while she was exploring the cavern, they don’t seem to be hostile to your species…

The exiled Wolf Slayer may be another potential ally. Who knows why he ran away from his tribe? Maybe he realized that demons shouldn’t be worshipped and couldn't convice his people to abandon their ways. He may know how to face devils like Gnolrek. It’ll be worth to meet him, too.

However, Wolf Slayers tend to attack other tribes on sight. They are beastly warriors. This exile may be different from them, but you’ll have to be careful on how you approach him.

Sounds like you’ve got a plan in your hands! You'll pay the Dwarves and the Wolf Slayer a visit. The fortress will be your first destination!

You’re not sure if you should wait for your wounds to heal before departing, especially considering that Gunyx wants to catch you alone. You’re not happy with leaving Daitzsa alone, either… the brute may want to hurt her while you’re gone. Maybe you should ask the other warriors to protect her. Everyone is aware of how terrible Gunyx is.

You could also dispatch him while you’re both alone… but would your friend approve of it? You’re still not completely sure of her feelings for him. She’s probably submissive and used to being abused, and she mistakes it for love. Too bad she’s in no shape to talk with you about it… but you will take the matter in your own hands, if you have to.

How much did "Pick in Eye" change everything?
>>
>>4388626
I just wanna know if ignoring the eyes would've got us into this situation
>>
>>4388653
Probably, I doubt the QM improvised half of this quest after we made 1 stupid choice.
>>
>>4388660
it would've been cool and funny if he did
>>
>>4388626
If you didn't pick the eye, you'd have kept working your way up in the hierarchy of the tribe as normal unless you're exiled along with Daitzsa. You could've learned that demons are bad guys, but not until much later and stuff regarding humans and other tribes.would've happened in-between.

You might have learned that demons don't care for your people and abandon your faith in them before they learn of your potential, which means they wouldn't have cared about losing you as a follower and probably send someone to kill you, same treatment they're giving the Wolf Slayer exile. You wouldn't have learned of the trials they'd have given you, and probably never meet the wolf slayer and the dwarves.

If you kept following Gnolrek and accepting his powers without questioning anything, you'd probably have become his Champion and still not realize how little he cares for you and your tribe.

>>4388653
You'd have been mocked and scolded by the voice, and Gnolrek would've told the shaman that Daitzsa was cheating on Gunyx with you until you were both attacked by wolves. The shaman would be very disappointed but not immediately tell the others of what you did. He would've had a talk with you, which may end up in being forgiven and him keeping the false secret or exiled depending on what you say.
>>
>>4388708
so what you're saying is that we made the optimal decision
>>
>>4388563
Keep up the good work. You blend everyone's conflicting ideas really well.
The progression of your art has been really nice to watch
>>
>>4388712
You made a funny decision with big results.
>>
>>4388745
what happens if we pick cave eyes again
>>
>>4388752
I'll just give a little warning.

Some demons are so powerful that the taint they generate allows them to leave the cavern without being sent back to Hell.
>>
>>4388712
>>4388708
once again, stabbing people's eyes has not only saved us but also given us a path to power and redemption, which means we need to keep stabbing people's eyes
>>
>>4388767
o-oh...
game theory time: whatever the dwarves are doing causes a grey taint. if there are powerful demons able to spawn taint outside the cave, then the dwarves might be able to do something similar. steal a manlet and plant him in the middle of the village let's fucking goooooooo
>>4388780
truly this is what god intends us to do
>>
>>4388767
>>4388767
I like that you deem it necessary to clarify this
>>
>>4388708
Whoa so you did actually improvise it, that's awesome. Most QMs wouldn't let the whole quest get derailed from one troll write-in.
>>
>>4389014
Hey it wasn't a troll when I wrote that. I just wanted a giant middle finger to demons.

Didn't exactly register it was the eye of a king demon. Figured it'd be a mid-tier or something.
>>
When the new thread starts in 2 weeks time QM should kick it off with a rocky-esque training montage
>>
>>4389326
Stealth and agility training montage, hopefully.
