With your Hallway Gate shut, and the Hall window open if you need to bolt outside...

Crickets chip, the aged wood of your Pizzeria rattles. The wind will likely be brutal tonight.

If a tree were to fall... well, best to focus on the more likely issues you'll be dealing with.

Likely to 'wake up' any minute now.

Night falls.

>>5084533

Let's do our best to be careful, tonight.

Let’s start by closing that security door so the fox stays relatively contained, and keep the remote on us in case of emergencies

Again, I think we should check outside to make sure everything is okay out there. Better than staying inside and getting mauled. And to collect the glass shards from that window we broke.

Assuming it's not raining.

>>5084533
Well let's go clean up that glass outside, probably a good idea.

>>5084533
OP you ok?

>>5090876
Christmas, doctors, insurance, and work; I mostly wanted to make sure a new thread was up and ready for updates when I'm not as busy. Things will likely update in spurts around the Holidays and ideally pick up hard after Christmas passes and the medical issues are sorted. It may be real slow for a while.

I won't lie and say I've had no free time, it's just that the free time I've had is after all that stuff and I don't have the energy to reliably run as much as I want to.

It's not forgotten, and I check here every day.

>>5090888
Ah well hope it all goes well for you, just wanted to make sure the quest wasn't abandoned.

The Hall Gate is locked, you're certain of that.

Even if the rest of this Pizzeria collapses, you're pretty sure that gate could survive it.

It's not raining, but the wind is whipping through the trees with enough force to tear the shirt off your respective back(s). Must be a storm coming from outside the Wood... It may be unwise to go too deep into the Wood tonight.

You climb through the Window as best you can, which is to say, you collapse out of it in a graceless heap. As you try to get back to your feet, you hear dragging metal from inside the Pizzeria.

It’s too deep within to identify the source. Your shadow seems like well, a normal shadow.

You hug the wall by necessity, the wind is savage, and you feel the rising threat of falling over almost constantly. You vaguely recall overhearing a Guest today mentioning something about a hurricane in Florida... Alabama might be dealing with the residue.

You make your way to the shattered glass outside the Kitchen window.

Well... that’s glass all right, still wet with blood... But what now? You have some pocket space to keep a few shards if you really wanted to, but you don’t have a bag or a backpack...

The thumping sounds really close... slow but deliberate. Luckily you aren’t near any windows- You hear what sounds like a child humming.

It's a nervous hum that teeters on the brink of breaking into sobs at any moment.

!!

Oh! Past the Playground you see something new. It seems like something ‘new’ pops up every Night...

It appears to be a hole in the ground.

It’s large enough for a couple of people to fit inside of. This wasn’t here earlier...

What the Hell made it so quickly?

>>5092895
Check out (BUT DO NOT ENTER) the hole. Maybe kick some shards of glass into it to dispose of them.

Keep a little for POCKET GLASS

>>5092918

>>5092895
Sweet free dumping space! Hopefully OSHA doesn't find out, let's get the glass into that.

It takes some work and the doing cuts fake skin off your hand, but you pocket some glass in case you need it.

You decide to move towards the hole. As you let go of the wall, a massive swell of vicious wind picks up a violent pace between the trees surrounding and knocks you onto your back and starts to drag you away- toward the Wood.

In one of the few times the Hive worked in almost perfect unison, dig your shovel into the dirt to keep from flying off. A few boards audibly crack from your Pizzeria.

A couple of drops of water plip around your feet...

Using your shovel like a cane, you peer into the hole. you don't need the flashlight, the cave has a sickly green glow as you peer deeper.

The entry is narrow, just peeking lets you fully see what’s within. The entryway follows a few foot decline before opening in an oval shaped room. The ceiling and floors are all simple dirt and rock. The walls however are packed around the base with curious reddish stone, and various ... sigils, some of the Hive would call them, all around the tiny cavern.

You toss a few bits of glass in, not triggering an alarm or anything to jump out at you... So that's some relief.

The center of the cave holds the most importance, it’s a massive bronze jug with two pipes coming from the opposite side of the handle. These pipes are semi-clear and are stained a copper color, leading into some sort of pump and battery hybrid.

This device is some form of heavy metal, with a series of non-functioning gauges visible behind a broken glass window in the top-center. Beneath it, inscribed in large, dark font it reads;

‘remnant’

Beneath the word is a bar that does work; it appears to be a simple gauge with 0 at one end and 20 on the other. Beneath that lay four black buttons with short inscriptions scrawled beneath in what has to be black marker. From left-to-right:

>see the catastrophe, takes just a little bit of it, do this often.
>soul strengthening, takes a bit more than a little bit, makes you stronger, don’t do more than twice.
>public hypnosis, takes a lot of this stuff, get away with anything you want for a day, don’t fully understand it, takes five days to activate again.
>weaponize it. you’ll know.

A small red pointer rests between 0 and 1. The machine is humming softly, various cables leading directly into the dirt to God knows where.

>>5096292
now we got to kill children to be alive? oh for fuck's sake!

>>5096292
>soul strengthening, takes a bit more than a little bit, makes you stronger, don’t do more than twice.

Mystery box!

>>5096292
>soul strengthening, takes a bit more than a little bit, makes you stronger, don’t do more than twice.
Strength is necessary when we have to deal with fucked up robutts constantly.

>>5096292
>See the catastrophe, takes just a little bit of it, do this often.
When was the last someone was in here?

>>5096292
...do we get to use the monsters outside as fuel?

>>5096292
>soul strengthening, takes a bit more than a little bit, makes you stronger, don’t do more than twice.
Ya know I wonder if we could've used the fucker we flushed down the toilet as fuel for this... if we didn't flush him down the toilet that is.

>>5096292
Ah, finally the fucked-up soul-science shit!
This sounds a lot like an abstract perk-upgrade system, here. If I'm following the logic, then this would mean killing things in the woods will give us "XP" to spend here.

I'm up to go hunting.

>>5098801
I assume we'd also get "xp" if we kill our own animatronics too but I very much would rather not do that.

The discussion on Remnant is super rad, but are there any plans on the next action? Unless you plan to try to stay down here for the night, which is a viable choice, I need to know if you guys have a location/plan in mind for the night.

>>5100127
We were all picking on what to do with the remnant?

I suppose if we can't do that right away, we can go check the playground and nearby area to be sure.

>>5100127
Oh right we gotta do stuff uh.
>>5096292
Let's get back inside the wind is clearly very angry today.

As you pore over the strange device, you wonder just how to use it. The 'function' seems obvious enough, most of the Hive identify it as a means to upgrade your respective Unit. The question is how to fill it, and given whom you're working for, you doubt the answer is polite.

For now, the gauge is not even at one, and the machine is of no use to you.

You suppose the bigger question is who last used it and wrote those annoyingly vague instructions. Catastrophe doesn't sound pretty.

It’s hard to care about how it got there. Monsters and ghosts seem par for the course with Fazbear, what’s a magic cave or two at this rate?

---

You hear the plips outside rise to a gentle growl, it's going to rain, and the idea of being flooded down here doesn’t appeal to you. You wonder if the machine will be safe, but given it's apparently been underground almost a week, you're pretty sure it will be just fine.

The whole cave radiates an aura that even the biggest skeptics of the Hive struggle to deny that the best term for it is ‘Occult’.

This proves true even faster than expected.

As you leave the Remnant Cave, using your shovel as a cane against the wind, the hole seals itself up quicker than your oculars can register with a strangely organic sounding crack. Like the Earth itself felt the need to pop a knuckle.

It’s 9PM.

You hear a faint shattering noise from somewhere inside the Pizzeria, but can’t identify the location of it with the billowing of the wind overriding almost everything else. The trees seem ready to uproot themselves, and a portion of the Hive wonder what it would be like to have one fall on top of you.

Namely if it would kill all of you or not. A few of the more paranoid wonder if you still get to have a Soul to go to Heaven with or not if you’re sharing your consciousness with ninety-nine others.

I am happy to say with the Holidays full over, I can dedicate proper time and effort to this Quest again. My goal is at least 5 updates a week minimum, if not more. Sorry for basically giving trickles at a time for December, that month is always nuts for me.

Hope you all had a relatively happy New Year, stay healthy everyone.

New ID, who dis?

Aside from AcidBarf McVacuum, the bots seem very non self destructive, so as long as we can verify the safety door is closed we should be in the clear to get back in. Seems like staying outside tonight is a real bad idea

>>5105295
This is a randomized FNAF Quest based on Pizzeria Sim. It includes elements from all the games but none are required to play the game. Well, except Security Breach. For now. That might change.

The Archives are highly recommended, at least for the first day, but basically:
>You have 4 Actions in the Day which range from buying stuff, cleaning, talking to robots, throwing parties, or independent actions, try to rack up money and raise the stats of your Pizzeria to make loadsamone while not having all your guests die in accidents.
>By night, most of what you have in the Pizzeria and the Wood around it become hostile, the goal is to survive the night, and ideally avoid taking too much property damage as well.

And that's it, it's a Survival Horror Tycoon Quest with some Darkwood influence.

It's a bad night to be outside, you're pretty sure you're waterproof, but also fall easily. You hobble your way to the wall and cling for dear life.

Gripping the wood, you manage to discern the scraping of metal against broken glass. The Canine has been in the Kitchen, and is roaming elsewhere. If the childlike voice, be it a real ghost or not, is saying anything, you cannot hear it.

you make your way to the back of the Pizzeria, as you turn the corner, it doesn't rain.

It pours.

You hit the ground gut first, and find yourself crawling...

CRACK--

Thunder and the tell-tale noise of a large tree collapsing not far off-

The Wood creaks in screaming protest of what must be at least tropical storm level winds, maybe worse. The Pizzeria rocks on its foundations as you make your way to the Window across from your Office--

CRACK---!! Errrkkk---

That... that's close. Too close to be distant- not even a quarter-mile off--

A few of you scream, and jet forward, crawling with all the speed you can, as a tree falls and slams full force into your Pizzeria just feet away from smashing you in half.

Glass shatters violently and smoke begins to rise where the lightning struck. The Northwest Window is shattered, the wall with it, as the tree collapses and destroys a portion of your Pizzeria.

In a panic you crawl into the proper Window and lay on the Hallway, doing your best to remain calm.

The rain is all the louder, and is now funneling into your Pizzeria. Rainwater clings to your uniform.

At the very least, the same rain seems to be keeping the tree from catching fire where the lightning fell it.

The structural integrity of your already trembling Pizzeria suffers the most from it. Even those in the Hive that curse struggle to find a swear that properly conveys the dismay this brings.

The few that do lean towards 'fuck'.

>>5105337
Well, shit, a noise like that almost certainly attracted the attention of the beasts. We should probably hide in our office.

Welp, there goes our budget, not like there was much we could’ve done anyways against a falling tree, but repairs will be pricey. In any case as long as the security door holds we should be fine, the monsters inside haven’t broken out of the pizzeria yet, probably cause they’re hardwired not to. I advise against sleeping however, despite there seemingly being nothing more we can do atm cause if another tree falls, we need to be awake and alert to hopefully dodge it. Also on a far more meta note, Ghost: say theoretically the next say four nights you continue to roll this “tropical storm” as your weather modifier, is there any kind of mercy system in place so it’s not total game over due to piss poor RNG?

>>5105337
I say we just hide in the nice and safe office where it is very safe and barricade the door.

>>5105337

Goddamnit! There goes our entire budget for a while. Let's get back to the office, things are BAD now, so let's not risk more tonight. We're going to have a lot to do come dawn.

>>5105337
Budget is kill folks, though at least our big bad security door still stands! We better hole up in the office and take the opportunity to check them DEALS while nobody can hear all the noise inside due to all the noise outside.

>>5105474
Once again, anyone reading if you want to know NOTHING and go full on mystery mode, don't read past this:

Weather and the sort of encounters in the Wood are rolled at the start of each Day. A majority of the time it's mild with Weather, and encounters can be extreme but are also pretty split on Good/Bad.

Events like the tree falling over and you not falling during the wind storm, stuff like that, are also rolled for, with a 1d10 with a DC ranging from 4-8 generally. The only mercy rule is unless you guys are WELL AWARE of the risk and still take it, I will not one hit kill you. I've gotten criticism for mercy rerolls in prior games, so I am not doing so with this one. Instead the odds of getting extremely bad outcomes multiple times are pretty small. But let's not jinx it.

>>5105664
So if we take the risk and are well aware of it it can result in a one hit kill, or the other way around?

>>5105337
Knowing corporate, it's questionable if they will have insurance for this even though any other establishment normally would. We'll have to see about that come morning.
For the mean time, hunkering down in the office might be a good idea. Our windows are still easy points of entry, but we at least have the hallway blocked off now.
That being said, other posts have noticed that the commotion from the tree may have alert other creatures, inside and outside the pizzeria, to our location. We may soon have some company. I guess we will see if that security door was worth it's money.

I forget, do we have any unbroken, sturdy-looking furniture to barricade the office door with?

File: PSQ117.png (118 KB, 700x700)

118 KB PNG

Fuck. Goddammit. Shit. Cunt. A few 'darns' slip in as well.

Colorful variants of the same mood run through your mind as you imagine the cost it will take to fix this.

Oh, also that there's now a new 'door' for anything to crawl inside your Pizzeria now right next to your Office.

Searching for anything to ease your worries, at least the South side of the Pizzeria should be unable to bypass your Hall Gate. You've yet to see any of the Monsters go outside, and you hope it stays that way.

You enter your Office, computer still humming, and lock the Door.

Not fully content, you try to barricade said Door, but the bookshelf proves too heavy to move. You have to settle for propping your chair under the knob.

It's... something?

The thunder and intensity of the storm is too heavy. If anything is entering, or leaving, you cannot hear it. The only sense you can rely on right now is sight.

>>5106666
Well, the silver lining is that hopefully the storm will mask our sounds as well.
Has the storm knocked out the power yet?

>>5106687
On second thought, if the computer's still on then that would answer my question.

TIME TO CHECK THE DEALS BOYS AND GIRLS

>>5106781
We’ve already bought the daily special for today, being a jungle gym with a reduced risk of giving the kids tetanus, so best we could do is try buying either some more cleaning supplies or party supplies, except with the new tree shaped hole in our pizzeria money is going to be very tight for a good while. Then again it’s not like we can do anything else besides sleep, which is also a bad idea considering current weather conditions.

>>5106804
Not to railroad, but just to present options: There are also Animatronics you can buy. Cleaning, Party Supplies, Animatronics, Expansion, and the Daily Special, which was already snagged.

And while it would be insanely risky by night, especially in a tropical storm, you do have enough nails and wood to perform minor repairs. You guys did move that from the shed to outdoors, and I need to double check, but I believe you left them along the wall near the Playground.

>>5105947
If you do anything that could kill you, like just straight up INSTANT OBLITERATION, I promise as a QM I will make it very, very obvious you're taking an astronomically huge risk before you decide to risk it or not.

Like the three post buildup to the dangers of the Tropical Storm and trees falling, that sort of thing.

>>5106804
>We’ve already bought the daily special for today
Ah right, my bad. Can we buy something else then? More animatronics would fuck us up badly here. I'd prefer we buy more cleaning supplies. Weren't we gonna need those big amount of party supplies we got before for a big birthday party later on? How long are we before that happens?
I'd rather we sleep then, because we don't got much else we can do here save for buying shit on the computer. Fuck trying to repair anything here in this shit weather, where we could slip anytime outside.

I'd say we try buying some party supplies to earn some money to HOPEFULLY make up for this.

Yeah I’m going to go with the consensus here and say buy party supplies. The hole has basically screwed us financially so at this point it’s go big or go home. Shame we don’t have a marketing budget, otherwise we could send out some coupons and get some more folks in, god knows they’re dumb enough to come here in the first place they’d definitely scramble for some cheaper food

>>5106666
Well looks like we can't do too much right now so might as well get on that computer and buy some stuff, iirc the expansion costs 1k, so unless if the prices for that changes then we can't get that so let's get like party stuff or something else instead, also quick reminder that the last time something broke in our pizzeria it was repaired for free, so hopefully they will repair the damage from the storm for free too, although the stuff that was broken before was a door and also the floor.

a man/woman/animatronic of culture i see

>>5106666
Lets buy some party supplies, we are relatively safe in here.

Also NGL mate, i'd personally prefer if you ran on another site like Sufficent Velocity, but i'll keep coming back just for your content if need be

We are forever gonna be trapped in a downwards spiral of shoddy repairs and calamities. The most logical conclusion is to slam our head against the PC until it resembles a meat slurry.

>>5107484
Let’s… not? I’m pretty sure we’d all die if you did that

>>5107503

No, no, maybe he's got a point about that.

Failing that, though, we should just buy some party supplies.

Sorry for the break, for what it's worth, it was spent making sure all the numbers add up, something way past due and fixing some minor issues in the engine that haven't caused problems yet but could in the future.

On Day 2 you guys purchased Party Supplies, the 'Worryingly Fun' Variety for +15% Entertainment Value. The only thing you could look into purchasing right now is Animatronics. What can I say, you guys shop a lot.

For the sake of tracking, here are the current buffs and nerfs to your Pizzeria, with some hidden if it's something to be discovered.

Health/Safety*: +2.5% Clean Kitchen, +2.5% Clean Party Room, +10% Mr. Hugs, -40% Foxy, -5% Current Floor/Wall Damage
>Total: -25%

Entertainment Value: +10% Location Benefit, +20% Rockbon, +15% Party Supplies
>Total: 45%

The best way to take advantage of the Entertainment Value is to Throw a Party of course. The statistics for that, and if you don't want the numbers don't look at this, goes as follows:
>3(Guest#/4 +1d10(+/-) EV) in USD.

*The Cleanliness of the Restroom has worn down and is the only Room that can currently be recleaned to raise the H/S rating.

The group decision to buy Party Supplies would be a wasted option right now, as is Resting given you're currently at full HP.

>>5110369
attempt to build up dexterity by pen and paper drawing with the hivemind?

>>5110369
Animatronics shopping, then.

>>5110369
Might as well shop for animatronics then, if only just to see what's available.

Fuck it, let’s see what bots we can buy. But just double checking even if we buy a new bot we can’t put it up cause we’re out of room, right Ghost?

>>5110596
The Wood has a base Limit of 5 Animatronics.

One of Foxy's perks is +1 Animatronics Limit.

You can have up to 6 Animatronics.

If you need to remove one or want to replace one for another, you have the option of scrapping them. Fazbear does not officially authorize this service, so you'd have to do so with your own hands, of course.

The Animatronic Bonus raises with every Animatronic that survives a day, and it's a hefty amount of cash that can easily make up for a day where Medical expenses work far against your favor.

>>5110648
let's check what animatronics we can buy then
if we roll Freddy Fuckboy as an option, we have to pass on him

>>5110369

We seriously need to keep up our health and safety.

Other than that, screw it, lets look at the animatronics.

Your Unit wasn't destroyed by that damn tree, so at the very least you're running at full capacity. No need for Rest.

Given the circumstances, you'd like to consider yourself strategically 'planning ahead' in your Office, rather than 'trapped'.

On the upside, the screaming protest of your Computer is drowned out as the hallway outside your door starts to flood with rainwater. At this point you can't even bring yourself to fear an electric fire.

After about 40 minutes (a record!) the Computer boots your purchasing window, or at least, something akin to it. You’re doing very well on Supplies, so you check the only real option you have.

A new Face for your Pizzeria.

May as well take advantage of the rumbling thunder and deafening rain to use this screaming relic of technology.

....

20 additional minutes are spent trying to decipher what’s on this damn screen, but you eventually sort out what you’re looking for.

Your options are as follows:

>Mr. Hippo the Conversationalist, $110 (-10% Entertainment Value, -5 Guest Capacity, Very pleasant guy all around)
>Balloon Boy the Jolly Lad, $60 (+10% Public Awareness, +10% Entertainment Value, a Quality, Friendly Boy!)
>Rockstar Freddy the Jamming Face of Fazbear, $240 (+50% Public Awareness, you best believe a Bear can Sing!)
>Rockstar Foxy the Bird-Tamin’ Pirate, $190 (70% chance of raising H/S +30%, 30% chance of lowering H/S -30%, resets Daily; He even comes with his Bird, Free of Charge!)

JJ is good, she also makes us a discount..? i don't really remember how it works but she is a good addition here

JJ’s effect on Shipping is a positive, it will save you money, not make you spend more. It should have been “-10%”, that was a mistake on my end.

(Okay, Rockstar Foxy was one of the first Animatronics I made, and those were his 'test' stats, and it's pretty awful, I'm going to keep the JJ votes in mind, but give me a hot minute, I'm going to tweak some details to balance this out a little.

You make the purchase quickly, and the funds are deducted from your account.

>>5113897
No…? I’m not even seeing a beam of light

>>5113780
+1, sounds like a reasonable strategy.

>>5113780
Yeah agreed

>>5113774
I doubt it'll be there but we should check the bathroom since that's where it was last time.

The Shadow clings to your every step, seeming to warp even with the blots of rain as you shuffle past the tree that utterly destroyed your poor wall.

You think you're getting a feel for your own feet as you step outside, using your shovel as a cane, it gets... easier not to fly off. You're getting a bit more dexterous you'd like to think.

What concerns you more is that the wind seems... Alive.

As you move along the wall, the angle changes, like it's intent on dragging you into the Wood if you dare lost your balance.

A few of the Hive pray it's just coincidence.

You cannot hear over the deafening thunder if anything is approaching.

You can barely see with the rain obscuring your vision.

You cannot smell because you are a Robot.

The Shadow looms quietly behind you all the while, slow step by slow determined step...

Maybe talking to the shadow thing might give some clues for where the stardust is at

>>5117632
We tried that last time, sadly the shadow thing won't help.
>>5117492
Well let's go down to the kitchen window.

>>5118272

do not let go and do not lose sight of the pizzeria wall

>>5118343
Agreed

My mouse died on Wednesday, I'm trying to fix it, but the scroll wheel and right mouse button don't function, I have one hopefully shipping today. I'm going to try and get some updates out tonight but I can't make any promises.

Don't keep your coffee mug on a table above where you keep your keyboard and mouse. At least it smells nice.

>>5117492
>Crawl along the ground

>>5121257
>Along the wall.

Agreed with all of these. Let's creep around the pizzeria, looking through the windows to see if we can glimpse any star dust.

Emergency bump for when our lord and QM Ghost returns [s]provided the curse hasn’t killed him[/s]

My mouse came in! Of course as soon as I promise more updates my mouse died half a week later. At a double shift sending this but hoping to get some updates in tomorrow. May have to make a new thread though.

>>5123735
Yeah, it’s consistently staying at page 9, so I’d just make a new thread regardless

My computer died tonight. External hard drive had malware on it. No idea how, but the Internet is blocked despite full connection. I have full access to my art programs but no way to post anything. And all the templates for the quest are on the now malware fucked PC.

I think the curse is a real thing. I’ve had this PC for 12 years. I bought the external hard drive personally four years ago. I was updating it to prevent something like this from happening.

I did everything right by the books. I’m so sorry, I don’t know what went wrong.

>>5124527
Do you not use malwarebytes? ublock origin? AdNauseam? Have you never scanned your external hdd before? Were there no signs like slowdown and other things?

>>5124527
Damn, it's alright QM we can wait.

>>5124527
Have you tried depositing five faztokens?
But nah, that sounds like shit luck, man.

The only thing I missed was Malwarebytes but I had Avast and Windows Defender. The issue did wind up being hardware, turning off my Firewall seems to have fixed it enough I can sort of access Internet but am still having a lot of trouble. I'll try to update, but right now it's like operating a PC with a blowtorch behind the fan at all times.

I spent my savings on a new computer an hour ago, but it won't be here till mid-February.

>>5124839
I have shoved five quarters into the CD drive.

On the sort of upside I did add some Security Breach material to the roster. Not the main 4 Glamrock models as they have hardset personalities, but a bunch of other things for more variety. 40 bots isn't enough for randomizing, I don't like you guys seeing doubles by Night 4 of all things.

>>5125206

Does this mean we might be able to buy something like those janitor bots from SB to free up some time cleaning about while not scaring our customers with our visage that's a crime against god?

Because that'd be pretty cool.

>>5126311
New thread! All responses will be carried over, hoping to have an update up by later tonight (I get off almost midnight though, so I mean very late)
