Important knowledge, we know she acts as a battery now, but could we accidentally kill her if we drain too much mana from her in one go?

That's... not too good. You have no idea how this magic battery thing works. You can feel black magic in blueberry, but not if it's moving around, growing in power, just that it's there. It's probably a large amount at the very least. You don't know if draining it all will rip out her soul or just purge it completely.

>"ikindawantedtogetcloserbuttotallynotinaweirdwayoranythinghahacanwegoeatyetplease."
Also not helpful, you can't really feel temperatures too keenly anymore, so you don't know if it's just something that happens when you cast dark magic or it's unique to her. Further testing is required.

Finished the first thread. I'm having a blast. This reminds me of an old Necromancer quest, except less sex fueled, and less ice golems.

>9 cats
>37 undead rats
Has anyone ever considered how terrifying a swarm of several hundred rats would be? Perhaps if we fixed up and repaired the cats, into addition to sending all our cats and rats to hunt in the sewers, we could collect ourselves a nice surplus of rodents.

>>5088456
>"...alright, but we need to talk about the whole "black magic inside of you" thing. after dinner."

>>5088634
What if we used the rats to make super rats? Or rat projectiles that shot out of the ranged skelly ton we're trying to make.

>>5088634
>Has anyone ever considered how terrifying a swarm of several hundred rats would be?
Yes, that is in fact what I've been suggesting since the middle of the first thread. An actual unending swarm of rats that come spewing out of sewer grates, flooding down alleyways and crashing in to the flanks of an enemy force is an absolutely terrifying prospect.

A few dozen rats like we have now would be capable of incapacitating two, maybe three men, but they would take noticable losses as the men thrash in a panic to get rid of the rats. If you have a hundred rats gnawing away at every inch of your body a struggle becomes futile, there's nothing you can do to struggle against it and if you don't get help within seconds you are bound to be devoured on the spot. It would be an absolute horror to see your comrade get eaten alive in front of you, it's an absolutely devastating morale weapon.

>Perhaps if we fixed up and repaired the cats, into addition to sending all our cats and rats to hunt in the sewers
This is the absolute best use for them right now, although I want to keep one or two cats around to see if we can turn them in to a living magic security camera. Maybe we can make some sort of Image Telepathy that would allow us to see through the eyes of our cats, and also give them the ability to sound a little magic alarm in our head when people approach the area they're designed to oversee. Basically an undead cat CCTV system.

>>5088456
>>"Alright, let's go."
While brain-storming possible experiments to do with/on her. Implied that we'd be talking about it after dindin tho.

>>5088634
>horrifying undead rat swarm
That was the entire point. Getting some other animals in our arsenal--like ripping the dogs from Resident Evil off--should also be scary, especially since this world has dragons in it. Undead bears, dragons, so on and so forth?

>>5088819
>cats as magical security cameras
Neat, that'd be a good use for these cats if we can't work the kinks out. Y'know, unless we can figure out how to make wraiths (animal wraiths would be pretty great, actually).

>>5088819
Then would it be a good idea to get some live rats or animals for that matter to breed them and grow their numbers before we make them undead so we have a constant supply of minions

>>5088889
Yeah a rat farm wouldn't be a terrible idea at all. Maybe if we have space in the basement we can start one out.

>>5088894
Very true, we can probably do the same thing with various other small/easy to breed animals too. Which gives me a thought: undead insects???

>>5088899
Insects might be too fragile to contain the magic, remember we blew out the heads of quite a couple of rats before we got it right. And we'd need even larger quantities of insects than we'd need rats for them to be effective, it's probably not worth it.

>>5088889
>>5088894
>>5088899
>>5088903
Oh shit that's right. Rats take on average 21-24 days to gestate, and roughly three weeks to achieve adulthood. Roughly a month in a half to get a breedable, then convertible to unearth rat, but it works well enough in the long term. In terms or long term uses, we could use zombies and ghouls to use as food for them if money is tight. In fact, we could probably command a swarm of dead or undead rats to help pick the flesh clean off of a corpse if we dont need the meat.

>>5088910
>picking bodies clean
We should try definitely that with our next batch of bodies.

>>5088903
No harm in trying it, though, especially if they can convert their own like the rats do. Especially if we can get the queen of an insect colony under our control. We can have Voxl round up some bugs for us to try it, later. They'd probably be a more effective alarm system/spies than cats, too.

>>5088819
I don't want to be a rat man. Besides I'll be any area affect magical ability can mop the floor of rats, and if people were smart and go up on places rats could not reach like a smooth metal wall with no spots for their little claws, they could attach a rope with a heavy weight and drop them on rat bones all day.

>>5088903
>>5088899
We should try research into area effects of mass raisings of dead things on small lifeforms.

>>5088916
>no harm in trying
>The average gestation period for a German cockroach is 28 days. Brown-banded cockroach: Brown-banded cockroaches carry about 16 eggs per ootheca. The female cockroach will keep the ootheca with her for about a day or two and then adhere the egg case to a piece of furniture, wall, cardboard or another rough surface.
>An American cockroach changes six to 14 times before it's an adult. It takes about 600 days for an American cockroach to reach adulthood from the egg.
If theres one insect we can reliable experiment on without outright killing it, it's the cockroach. Those guys are hard to kill sometimes. Now imagine a swarm of those guys, but extremely more violent and carnivorous.
https://youtu.be/K1R4hHq8yr4

Oh and we could probably build some rat traps to contains rats rather than outright kill them. It wouldnt be unreasonable to ask PIG to set up rat traps in the sewers, then deleivervus live rats every day, or every other day.

>>5088929
We don't really need rat traps, just bait, or rather we just get a nice little bait trap over a deep hole and let rats fall in when they try to go for the food.

>>5088926
That's just you and thats fine I guess, but you're underestimating how scary a swarm of rats can be.
If rats are vulnerable to ApE attacks, of course we'll tell them to fall back and try to avoid being out in the open. Theres a time and place for rats afterall. Like that enable of people in high and hard to reach places. Just have the rats start climbing over each other World War Z style, or like in here >>5088634 where the rats became giant pillars of swarming flesh. OP mentioned the rats having green fangs or something, so it probably means undead rats are venomous.

>>5088927
Agreed, something weak and like a miasma so we dont accident blow all the heads of little critters, plus it would be less tedious to raise the dead of each individual rat.

>>5088933
That is exactly the definition of trap. I dont care about the semantics , so long as those rats can be collected and transported to us.

>>5088935
>That's just you and that's fine I guess, but you're underestimating how scary a swarm of rats can be.
I deal with rats pretty much seasonally. I am dull to them beyond irritation and annoyed disgust. I don't even feel bad when I turned them into squeak toys with my boot.

Test

>>5089229
Stop trying.

>"...alright, but we need to talk about the whole "black magic inside of you" thing. after dinner."
Blueberry slightly pales, but simply nods in response.
>"U-uhm, let's go then."
You get to the living room, where Voxl is gnawing on the stem of some weird miniature pumpkin after eating it's insides. The food Pig provided mostly consists of preserved meats, veggies, fruits, and a couple of things wrapped in what appears similar to tinfoil, which you later find out is similar, and all you need to do is cook it is throw it in a fire place for a bit, kinda like when you got to visit Taiwan once and got to eat Yams cooked by the heat of a gyser.
>"Hey thar baws, I thot you didn't needta eat!"
You sit down to eat, and thankfully when you swallow a bite of what kinda looks like salami, it doesn't feel like your stomach was simply empty or anything, so it looks like food won't just rot inside you if you wanna eat, and your tastebuds seem to work just fine. No magic recharge though, so this is basically just pure self-enjoyment.
Blueberry, as expected as a stoner, eats quite a bit, nothing near "Shonen protagonist" or enough to make you need to ask for extra food, but it's a lot.
Halfway through the meal, you hear a small thump as Janna kicks down the entrance. She has a few small scratches on her face, and a shitload of blood on her clothes that's obviously not hers.
>"Sup fuckers, I got some coins and some info."
Janna devours a shitload of not-tinfoil cooked chicken before she starts talking about the day.
There wasn't a lot of money to be made, as the news that Barry's gang had fucked up and died to someone has spread, and they knew Janna was making a deal with them that involved the PIG, so they kinda thought she'd be killed off by him today, so not a lot of bets. Janna makes it clear that they don't know shit about you and "Solana"(Blueberry) or Voxl, though she does say quite a few people know that "Solana" exists.
She's earned 15 gold coins, which isn't a lot compared to what she usually earns.
Nothing about the drugs has come up, at best, she can say that Gulch for sure wasn't supplying it, nor were most of the normal suppliers.

You haven't been eating or drinking anything for almost a full week and feel perfectly fine, you're already enough of a necromancer not to need to worry about feeding yourself.

After wondering if you should test if you can still get drunk, you watch Voxl slather a hunk of meat in blood and hork it down before letting out a loud burp and passing out. You leave while waving Blueberry and she hastily follows you. You shout something at Janna before you leave.
>"I'm gonna go poke your Girlfriend, Janna. Don't be jealous, this is entirely for science."
>"Alright, as long as you let me- wait what the fuck did you just-"
sucks to be her, you're too far away to tell what she's yelling about.

Blueberry awkwardly stands in front of you and fidgets as you examine her slowly with your magic.
The black magic level has not dropped, at all. In fact, you're pretty sure it's been slowly building up to a higher concentration this entire time.
Blueberry doesn't look disfigured, and she isn't more veiny than usual as far as you can tell, and her eyes aren't glowing or anything, so as far as classical signs of a magic overload and a generic god complex, zilch.

Pretty sure she can already do that since they recognize her as a friend, same with the others, unless if you mean some sort of magical control.

>>5090696
Pretty sure isn't certain. We're testing to find out and see if its more subjective based or if she has any actually control or if its based on our "feelings" at the time.

>>5091311
Alright well it won't hurt to ask her to try and control the undead anyways so might as well go for it.

Blueberry vigorously shakes her head while blushing.
>"N-no, I h-haven't like, seen anything like that, at least as far as I can tell."
You really have no idea what even a generic high elf is supposed to look like in this world, let alone a blue one that uses god knows how many drugs on the daily and is somehow rather plump and "developed" despite most likely spending all her cash on drugs. For all you know, eating a single grapefruit for breakfast is the height of gluttony ever recorded for them in civilized society.
>"Hey, what did you usually eat before meeting me?"
>"I, uh, don't, uh, like, normal stuff, p-pretty good for h-here at least? B-basically what we j-just ate, b-but I d-didn't eat any foil meats cause t-they're too expensive. Sometime Janna would let me eat s-some weird powder she, like, uses and people paid me to uh... t-test drugs d-during l-like parties s-so I could buy better stuff somet-times?"
She snickers
>"t-then they stopped c-cause they, like, totally suck at t-taking drugs, I w-woke up under a bunch of d-d-dead guys once, and I s-saw them take, like, way less than me."
She pauses
" ...I think I eat more than most people though... Wh-why does this like, matter? Puh-please tell me I'm not going to die because I d-didn't eat a rooster egg."
Well. That's... something. Jesus. Increased tolerance for drugs is a thing if you remember your breaking bad rip-offs correctly, but those usually cause overdoses, not prevent them entirely. You already asked about when she came in, she was on something called "Quick" which apparently has a chance to act like what's basically an hyper-espresso or make you foam at the mouth and hallucinate for a bit, and Blueberry got the second one.

You toss her the magic self-defense for women book.
>"Hey, try casting the shock grasp spell, not on me, though."
Blueberry expression suddenly sours immensely, but she forcibly resets her face into a blank expression.
>"U-uh, th-there's no point, I c-can't cast magic at all, so we should do something else."
She swings the hand with a book around before realizing there's nowhere to put it, briefly looks at you, flinches, and settles for awkwardly placing the book on the ground.
Oh god(s(?)) please let this not be a emotional issue.

Deciding to give her any advantage she needs, you instruct her to put on your old bathrobe, which she gladly does. As soon as she slips into it, you see a immediate change in the flow of dark magic. If it is building up, it's still far too slow to tell with your normal magic sensing power, but the magic is flowing faster, though Blueberry's heart rate isn't going up. She begins to read the spellbook, then suddenly pauses and looks at you. You think she suddenly changed her mind, but she shyly looks at you before saying.
>"Uh, could you help me read? I'm not to good at it..."
1/2

Turns out Blueberry isn't illiterate, but she's pretty damn close to be honest. Surprisingly, she knows most of the random ass chemicals and reactions mentioned in the spell, mostly related to drug use, along with a few concepts you had no idea about, but you have to help her with everything else. Finally, you get to actually casting the spell. She makes all the motions, even the ones the spellbook says are unnecessary for "even the most basic of aspiring mages" and... nothing. However, you do notice that the magic is pooling slightly in her hand, though she says she doesn't seem to feel anything, not the sourness, no other sensations, nothing. Every time she casts the spell, the magic continues to pool and stay there. After a few more tries, you're on the verge of writing this off, but Blueberry's attitude has seemed to do a complete 180, and is now visibly straining with the effort to cast the spell. Suddenly, she lets out a small cry and clutches her hand and her eyes begin to go wet again after the 5th attempt.
>"I-I'm sorry, my hand, like, hurts bad all of a sudden, c-can I stop after the next one?"
By now, a majority of the magic within her has pooled into the area of her arm, exceeding the amount needed for the spell noted in the book over ten times.

>"Strange. The Magic is accumulating in your hands, however the spell still doesn't fire. Could be you suffer the same limits to your magic as I do to mine..."
>"...Maybe casting a "real" spell is too hard, try just making a blast or something, that's what I did at first. Be careful though, there's an awful lot of magic built up in your arms and hands right now. It could be best to let the Mana displace itself first before you trying anything else."
Blueberry nods at you, and you wait as the magic very slowly distances itself from Blueberry's arm. It takes a surprisingly long amount of time, around 10 minutes to redo the normal flow. You give the go ahead to blueberry and she awkwardly shuffles around before just out stretching her hands and yelling.
>"Uh, l-like, BLAST!"
It takes around half a second before things start to go to shit. Before you can even process what's happening, the magic slams back into her arms and hands before it wrenches itself out of her fingertips... taking a shitload of dark blue blood with it. The streams of blood flash towards the zombie you set up for target practice, ripping through his flesh and breaking their arms like high-pressure water jets. While you're panicking, you happen to notice that the blood doesn't seem to be losing any magic at all. Blueberry screams in pain as the blood keeps streaming from her finger tips.

>stand next to Blueberry too absorb the excess magic in her
Since she's not in control of the spell chances are if we try to force the magic back in we create a blockage that will cause the magic pressure to build until her arms explode. Best course of action is to absorb her magic until she falls unconcious or no longer has the energy to feed the impromptu spell.

i dont think we want to get tainted blood bak in her.
>>5093824
Can we drain all her magic with some serious duty spells? Or simply drain them into us and replenish our own reserves?

Great job. She's gonna be traumatized.

>5093794
>Write in
tell her to not doing anything and to stop trying to will or force magic out, then start casting spells to drain the magic from her so she can't cast anymore.

>>5093894
>>5093794
Linking failed.

>>5093865
She's a magic Battery, not a magic USER. So she's probably bleeding out magic and blood, and that's only possible from "magic pressure" so we remove the magic under pressure in her and the blood and bleeding and the whatever she's doing should stop.

>>5093865
I think the problem is that both we and her are panicking, so the magic blood isn't out of control, but going for the last order that was "cast". If we start throwing around a bunch of spells to knock her out, she is only going to get more desparate.
Also, the tainted blood is already inside her, I don't think we can get rid of all of it now on a whim. If we don't get it back in, she is going to be hit with both bloodloss and that magical exaustion.

>>5093903
not the magic blood, the blood that went outside. That returning and is now mixed with who knows what.
We dont want her to get an infection.

>>5093906
Her blood is now magical, specifically with dark, necromantic magic, so it should be safe from infection. That plus her absurd drug resistance.
This is probably just the QM giving her hemomancy because of putting the magic in her blood, each place probably would have given her different powers.

>>5093810
+1 Well shit, she'll probably be fine right?

>>5094346
Depends if we make things worse or keep trying to make her do magic shit.

>>5094692
Whatever happens, we should finish it for now, it's obvious that she would need to change her mentality if she would use this powers, wheter she can control her powers or not, and that kind of thing should come from her, not from us.

>>5094740
Stop trying force it, your hurting our most fluffy minion.

>>5094819
What do you mean anon, I just agreed with you.

>"Uh, try bringing the magic back inside!"
You also make a few efforts to shove the magic in order to try to assist Blueberry in not suddenly pressure-blood jetting herself to death. It's surprisingly hard, but you manage to get a quite large amount in before Blueberry starts doing it herself.
>"Don't panic Blueberry, the blood is not losing magic, we are still in control here"
Blueberry keeps crying, but as soon as she makes a motion to return the blood into her, it shoots back right into the tips of her fingers, sealing the wounds it originally came out of. None of the blood ever stops floating in the air or touches the ground. As she finishes, she drops to the ground and cries. She then drags herself over to you and start grabbing at you. You decide that the risk that she's going to suffer serious emotional shit without hugs outweighs the possible danger that she's trying to strangle you for suggesting this. You bend down and Blueberry latches onto you and begins to sniffle. However, surprisingly, her next words aren't "please hug me" or "I'm going to strange you, you olive-colored bastard"
>"I-I'm osrry, I-I'll do better next time, p-please don't kick me out."

Wat do?
>"What the hell are you talking about, we aren't ever doing this shit again."

>>5094921
"Of course I'm not going to kick you out... You okay?" And once we're certain she's not in physical pain/has calmed down emotionally then "Blueberry--no pressure you don't have to tell me if you don't want to--but what's your hangup with magic?"

>>5094921
>"What the hell are you talking about, why would I kick you out you dumb-dumb?"

Blueberry stops crying as much and just hugs you tighter.

>"That being said, I think it's best for you to rest for now, and I won't force you to talk about it or do this again."
Blueberry simply nods while sniffling, though she now appears to be smiling slightly and fumbles around her jacket while you continue hugging her, she grabs a shitload of space, snorts it, and offers you some.
>"u-uh, d-do you want like, victory drugs or whatever?"

>>5096030

I think I understand what Blueberry is. Her body is so saturated with drugs, that her digestive and immune systems have been adapted to absorb as much nutrients as they can out of everything. Kind of like Demoman from FT2.

>"No thanks, you deserve more of it."

>>5096041
>>5096062
>>5096063

>"All R-right then, S-suit yourself."
Blueberry then spreads out a extremely large amount of drugs and begins popping the fuck off. You even see a half-dead toad with a glowy heart on his back being licked before being straight up crunched in half.
>"Uh, is taking that much at once a good idea?"
>"Hmm? Oh don't worry, I asked for more in their delivery tomorrow, remember I w-won't have to worry about running low that way, right?"
That wasn't really the point, but you think Blueberry's already reached the point where her body processes Drugs better than actual food at this point, so you can't really say anything. You decide to leave when she starts pulling out more frogs and rolling them in this weird black sludge.
As you leave, you see Janna waiting outside the room with her arms crossed and Voxl pulling at her leg yelling about privacy and getting "a full body deboning if you don't stop acting like a moron". Janna manages to shake him off and crosses her arms and stares at you. Voxl simply glances at you, does a apologetic look and scurries off.
>"...What did you do to Solana? I know it's nothing good, since you cast a really fucking high-level ward on this door."

Before you can respond, you realize the door is enchanted and Janna isn't also as high as a Blueberry. Not with your magic, but it seems to be enchanted by someone with considerably more raw power than you. You can't really tell what it does beyond the fact it strengthens the door's ability to keep someone out once a certain condition is met.

She has a point. Still, it's annoying. You briefly consider having metal doors installed, but you highly doubt that they would have any effect, she'd probably start throwing shit before she even left the room or crash through windows to continue to annoy you. That, or it's one of those annoying habits you build up when you're small, and are impossible to break without paying disproportionate amounts of time, money, and stress in return. Or maybe she's just an ass. Whatever.
You head back over to the undead room, and manage to skin 5 corpses with the use of your magic before feelings of fatigue overtake you. Blueberry isn't is as high as before, and is now lazily lying on the ground.
>"Anoooooon, can you pleassssssseeee hurry up, or just tell me if I still need to do the lap pillow thing so I could like sleep?"
You've skinned and deboned enough corpses to make a burly minion to meet your expectations, though you feel like you could at least a few more corpses before it could truly be considered perfect.

"In a minute, just let me get these last three corpses."
You send in the rats while you work on them. While they aren't as efficient as you thought they would be, they significantly speed up the process. When you finish, Blueberry makes another raspberry noise, and she clings onto your arm and you both travel upstairs into the master bedroom. ...only bedroom actually. Shit, Janna's gonna flip, isn't she? Fuck that, you're not technically doing anything lewd, you didn't design this room, and you're pretty sure Blueberry is actually more lucid when high than when she's sober. You drift off to sleep almost instantly as your head hits the pillow.

You wake up and realize you're eating blueberry's hair. After spitting it out, she wakes up and blushes furiously as she sees you.
>"u-uh, g-good morning boss!"
You don't even feel groggy, and take a cursory glance at her magic levels. No real change, you even follow a single speck of magic all throughout her body for a minute to make sure her blood system isn't deformed, though it's not like you could tell if your magic blew up 2 of her three hearts if her systems were that different. Before you can do anything and start planning out your day, Voxl kicks down the door.
>"BAWS, I BAGGED A INTRUDER, HE SED HE WANTED A DEEL OR SUMTING!"
Jesus fuck, is degenerative hillbilly accent a medical condition in this world or something!? Voxl practically drags you downstairs, and there you see... another blue elf. However, unlike blueberry, this one is male, has red eyes instead of golden, is incredibly skinny... and is covered in bolas and has a very pissed off Jojo reference kneeling on his back. As you approach him, he begins to speak in a nasally voice.
>"Oi, you're the bloke that-"
FUCK HE'S BRITISH.
>"-knocked off Barry, yeah? I'm not here to fight or anything, jess here to make sure that I still deliver the suppli-"
He stops as he looks at you a bit more and sees Blueberry behind you, and suddenly begins yelling at her.
>"SISTER! WE DO NOT NEED TO SUFFER UNDER THE HEEL OF THE SPLAK OVERLORDS! CAST OFF YOUR CHAINS A-"
This is met with a sudden brutal kick from Blueberry, caving in a few of the poor guy's teeth. Janna doesn't even have time to react.
>"I'm not part of that anymore. Fuck off."
>"Suster! We don't need to-"
Blueberry rears up to kick him again.

Wat do?
>"As funny as I find this, I'd prefer it if you didn't kill the person that's probably supplying the materials for Space."
>"Blueberry, no judgment here, but please tell me you weren't a former "professional racist" or whatever."

Stop Blueberry, for now.
Offer to unfuck his teeth, in exchange he tells us everything, and he continues with the supplies for us. Just what the fuck is he giving us, and hows it made?

>>5099974
>>"As funny as I find this, I'd prefer it if you didn't kill the person that's probably supplying the materials for Space."
Although calling the guy a communist seems like it'd be fun.

>>5099974
Can we make suicide bomber rats? Remove organs in exchange for some explosive compound or necrotic ammo, add some contact based super poisons so if they explode they dont cause a chain reaction and detonate nearby rats. Could it work? We'd have hundreds of suicide bomber rats that will be feared by archers and melee fighters alike. It's one things to shoot out one of them. Its another to hundreds.

>"As funny as I find this, I'd prefer it if you didn't kill the person that's probably supplying the materials for Space."
Blueberry glances at you, and displays a bit of fear on her face. It's not really directed toward you, it's more of a nervous "oh boy shit is about to hit the fan-type fear". She stops, but makes a surprisingly viscous glare towards the man on the ground.
>"S-sup- *pleh*"
He takes the time to spit out a tooth.

We tried Corpse Detonation in the first thread, it works but it's basically a limp dicked wet fart rather then an actual detonation and wouldn't even inconvenience someone, much less kill them. And that was with a human sized corpse. A rat would probably be even less spectacular than that.

>>5100020
>Write in
wait, are we green, faceless with weird glowly eyes?

>>5100043
not gonna do another update today, but you look like a anon. You have that cross on your face that's part of sketches on normal characters instead of the question mark.

>>5100037
Did we purposefully try to make exploding corpses, or was that a consequence of failing something else we were attempting? If it's the former then that's a real shame. We could hollow out Ray's and fill them with explosives, but that costs lots of money. Money that we currently lack for now. Maybe we could try thermite rats? No wait aluminum isnt in common supply. Shit. Okay what about....rats filled with poison gas!
FUCK! Never mind, we cant make mustard gas. The industry to support those chemicals might not have been invented yet.

I cant think of much use for rats beyond undead flesh eating rat swarms, or using them to pick up or drop off very small items. Maybe doses of Space to customers?

>>5100046
Do we have a penis?

>>5100046
Can we not be green or stop being green at some point?

>>5100051
We have less than a hundred rats, we can always build up the swarm some more later.

And we just pumped a bunch of magic into a corpse to see if we could get it to go boom, and it was more like a fleshy water balloon than a proper explosion. Of course we learned Unholy Barrage after that, so maybe it's an experiment worth revisiting.

>>5100056
Maybe we can train the rats to collect coins off the grounds and those lost in the sewers? I bet a ton of coins get lost down there. We can collect more rats, cats, motherfucking BIRDS, and coins.

>>5100051
>Did we purposefully try to make exploding corpses, or was that a consequence of failing something else we were attempting?
It's quite literally the first choice made in that thread, it was as deliberate as you could make it, and it was just a spleurgh of viscera that didn't do much damage to anything bar the corpse itself.

The problem with corpse explosion on rats is that when we tried to raise them we'd accidentally cause them to blow up when we infused them with too much power. Chances are even if we succeed in making corpse detonation possible, the rat bodies migth not be able to contain enough energy to actual deal any lasting damage to anyone.

>>5100059
Undead animals have been on the list of stereotypes we need to do. We got Rats and Cats now, but the cats were really stiff for some reason when we raised them. Before we start raising more animals we should figure out the cause of this so we don't end up with a horde of Hounds that can't sprint and a murder of Crows that can't fly.

>>5100020
>"Wait, wait wait, there are other green-skinned faceless running around here?"
>"Aw, is this like that dragon isekai where I have to kill everyone else who was transported to this world? That sucks."

>>5100066
Perhaps we just need more practice raising them, or boost their intellect like with Poncho and his brothers. Now that I think about it, if we did that would it require less energy since they're smaller? Having a small nimble intelligent undead cat and rat could be useful for spying on people since we can sort of see what some of our undead see. Sometimes.

>>5100020
>"Is everyone just going to not tell me what a Splak is? Is this some fucking race war against humans shit? I mean, I'm not really a human, what with the eyes that don't really exist, green skin, and whole partially undead thing, but still."

The weirdo looks at you confused for a second before continuing his... most likely not raically charged rant?

Blueberry rears back her foot again and the weirdo
>"A-answer anon properly!"
Aw, that's cute, she stutters even when she's mad!
>"...No. So congratulations, you've made another useless appearance enchantment you can peacock around for a few months you fucking Splak."
Alright, what the actual shit is a splak, it was funny at first, but now it's just tiring.
>"What in the everloving fuck is a splak and a blank? I just want to raise corpses in peace, not get involved on some retarded race war."
Before he can even answer, Blueberry does...a slightly lighter kick, aimed at his ribs before he can do anything.
>"U-uh, Splaks are what this... moron, like calls magic users that he t-thinks are "evil" or whatever. Blanks are, uh, people who can't use magic..."

Alright, you've heard enough of this bullshit.

I could just kill you right now and use your ghost to get the supplies, so don't do anything stupid."

And then start muttering about how commies in fantasy land are just as stupid/illogical as the ones back home.

Also, seems like we know what Blueberry's hangup about magic is about. It also gives me an idea about how we can get this guy on our side since his entire ideology is based in envy: offer him the chance to get his own magic if he serves us loyally/continues to supply us. See if Blueberry wants to mention she isn't a blank anymore to this guy and watch the avarice take over.

Alright, two possibilities. Virgin blood, Piss or something sacred.. ...You really, really hope it's the... Actually, you have no idea what you'd rather it'd be. On one hand, virgin blood sounds a lot worse on paper, but you'd need to get used to it, cause necromancy ain't exactly a victimless crime after a certain point, and piss... well, that's just gross. ...Aw fuck, theodore probably kidnaps and harvests nobles he captures, doesn't he?

We'll promise Solana to help her understand her magics right after we figure out what to do with this guy. What we want to know is who his supplier is, that way we don't have to deal with him, and we can send our own courier to get our own berries.
What we can do is start with something simple. Water boarding. Failing that I think Castration would be a good incentive for him to spill the beans. Failing that as well lets have the rats slowly eat away at his arms and legs. If he's still not breaking the, roll the dice and see if we can use magic to read his mind. Worse case scenario we kill him, but hey. Free skeleton.

>>5101942
>"Don't worry, I'll help you with magic as soon as we deal with commodore cunt in the next room."
Blueberry nods and tries to hide the extremely crimson blush on her face.

As you walk in, Voxl is visibly struggling not to drop his crossbow and go for another one of his cigars as captain headass goes on and on about the ideals of his rebellion, and Janna looks like she's about to drop dead herself.
>"Alright shithead, you are going to tell me who your supplier is, either before or after some serious waterboarding. Failing that, we fucking rip off your balls, and then we just let the rats go on a pleasant night out all over your body."
Voxl visibly winces at the threat of castration.
Theodore simply stares and suddenly laughs at you, which sounds like he has a misshapen flap of skin shoved down his throat.
>"HAKHAKHAKHAKHAK Supplier? SUPPLIER!?"
>"I AM the supplier! No one else in the rebellion can go to the same places I do, and the second you kill me, even if you brought me back to life as perfectly as you THINK you can, "I" won't be able to get back in, and then you lose the berries, and the rebellion will write off our little venture as a lost cause, and then you'll lose access to our mixed liquids, unless..."

>"By the way, Holy shit, whoever is in charge of naming shit in your rebellion really needs to be put down or transferred out or something, first Splak, and now your name sounds more evil than "Zarthlog, baron of slaughter.""
He simply sneers and lobs a impressively accurate spitball right at your face.
>"Eat shit. I'll never break."
Waterboarding is simple, you simply strap him down, tilt the table, place the rag over his face, and pour the water in, giving him a tiny time to choke up any water before continuing. After around 5 minutes, you stop and let him cough some extra out.
>"It's not that hard, Theodore, just tell me how you get the berries, and what the hell is the liquid, I then let you go, and we never have to see each other again."
He simply laughs and... wait, what the shit? He was definitely British when he first started talking, but now he definitely has some weird French accent.

You strap him under for another five, and he gives the same response (this time is this weird accent that makes hi unable to pronounce "O" properly).
You strap him under for another, and now you're thinking of a new offer. To be perfectly honest, you don't feel too conflicted about... castration, but you have absolutely no medical knowledge, spells, or supplies, and while you're pretty sure you can't die of blood loss from the balls, if someone did that to you, you'd probably swear revenge on them no matter how unreasonable it was... at least until you learned how to grow them back.

Wat do?

Well now that we tortured him, working with him is off the table forever, so might as well see if we can get the next in line.

>>5102524
castrate then rats. Tell Poncho to do it.

>>5102548
Look, I know QMs stepping in is bad form, but you do realize theodore specifically said that whoever was next in line would write this whole "sell drug supplies" venture off if he died right? Just making sure you didn't misread anything. k sorry bye.

I was thinking of bribing the next in line with magic, not that they would continue the operation without an incentive.
Just trying to make the best of the situation, because at this point it's best to just abandon the drug selling.

>>5102652
>because at this point it's best to just abandon the drug selling.
Kinda agree with you. Is selling drugs really worth the hassle if we have to deal with +30 willpower hippies with the mental fortitudes of demi-gods? Absolutely not. I'd rather kill this level 20 QM Donut Steel insert than work with him, but there's not much we can do.

>>5102524
>Write in
I don't really care about making drugs to be honest, I just want to raise to dead. I could easily find another venture, really I only went for drugs because it was convenient at the time, and had very enthusiastic helper.

Its one thing to want to martyr yourself for a cause, but its another to die as a nameless or forgotten footnote without anyone to really care of appreciate what you tried to do.

>>5102657
>implying I would want to be a hippie knife ear
You can still totally kill him, I think I just overestimated how important the drug stuff is to most anons. ...and should probably not made him a semi-communist. You'll be able to get another way to make space eventually. Also he's like every rebel trope I hate rolled into one.


>"Alright, fucking hell, what the hell do I need to do in order to convince you to work with me?"
He spits once more in your general direction. At first this was infuriating, then it became mildly annoying, impressive for a brief moment, and now it's just mildly gross.
>"...While I am loathe to deal with Splaks, and my resistance has a replacement line set up... It would hinder our planned attacks for the following months."
He tries to spit again, and now you're not sure if it's because he's been waterboarded or he's just a shitlord.
>"50% of the profits from your drugs, and you return my sister so I can undo your brainwashing... and your word to never hinder my efforts for the righteous fight, nor will you brainwash more civilians. "
Right, he must be getting high off his own supply. He's not gonna get any more reasonable even without his balls making him... ballsier... that was in your head, and that still sounded stupid.

Wat do?
>"Right, fuck that. Voxl, you still wanna kill this guy for calling you a kid?"

I think we can just make medicine, I bet everything is magic based to some degree so having some decent chemistry non magical based drugs would probably do wonders for the common folk, and probably be easier and less of a hassle to make.

I'm also curious as to who really even buys his shit, it seems to need a certain amount of magic makers to make use of the stuff he's selling.

>>5102687
>"Fuck no. Drug dealing isn't that important anyway. ...However, information on a magic city is, congrats, you've been upgraded from being tortured for drugs to tortured for magic shit!"

Blueberry's here on her own accord, I don't tie her up or chain her to a room, She can leave anytime she wants, and I don't have any brainwashing abilities otherwise I would have made you strip naked, and smear animal dung all over yourself while trying group and hug all your resistance members while you constantly try to shove their hands up your butt.

Also for a commie, you sure do like to exploit the workers for their labor, like some parasitic "splak".

>>5102687
>"Right, fuck that, drug dealing isn't that important anyway. Voxl, you still wanna kill this guy for calling you a kid?"
I'm fucking done with this faggot.

And if we run out of fingers before we reach a reasonable agreement, then congrats, you've been upgraded from being tortured for drugs to being tortured for information! Because in the end this drug business is just a side hobby for me that happens to pay well. With that in mind, I suggest you reconsider your current position very carefully."
>"Oh yeah and Blueberry is non-negotiable. Deal with it, loser."

>I think I just overestimated how important the drug stuff is to most anons
I just wanted to necromance, not deal with fucking Elf Lenin over here and his followers misdirected passion project. From the sounds of it we'll have to fucking put the whole thing down if we wan to just Nercomance in peace, because otherwise they'll just come for us eventually even if we're just on our own doing necromancy things.

>>5102716
Support.

>>5102687
>>"50% of the profits from your drugs
Yeah no we're already giving Pig a cut of our drugs, and we'd get a better deal from him. We're killing him now.

>>5102691
Agreed. maybe Solana's drug making skills can transer over to alchemy and medicines.

>>5102699
>Also for a commie, you sure do like to exploit the workers for their labor, like some parasitic "splak".
This. He's the worst kind of communist, a hypocritical one.

>>5102707
+1

Right, first off, FUCK that split. Pig's already taking forty-fucking five percent of the profits, and even if you manage to find someone trustworthy or train your undead to deal the drugs so he gets his cut down to thirty, you'd still only be getting...
100x.7x.5=35
35 fucking percent of what you rightfully deserve, and it's probably even lower in the end cause of manufacturing costs. ...You are totally going to renegotiate that split... well, actually that seems kinda tedious, you just wanna get on to the bone zone, but all this mafia bullshit is so tiring. ...You really hope giancia's corpse is fun to play with at least.

Second off (though not in importance) no fucking chance you're going to pawn Blueberry off to Elf lenin/stalin/trostsky/boris. At best she becomes a serious drain on their coffers and she eventually just runs back to you, worst case scenario, the rebellion gets corrupt and she becomes a pleasure slave and commits normal unalive on herself to get out of it.

>"Alright, first off, for a commie, you sure do like to exploit the workers for their labor, like some parasitic "splak"."
>"Pah! I would not be dealing with you filthy drug-peddlers if I had a choice, but it is for the revo- what in gonar's name is a communist anyway!?"
Finally, the one place that hasn't been corrupted by communism, SPA- ANOTHER WORLD!
>"Well, now you get to understand how I feel when you keep throwing around "Splak". Second, fuck you. I'm at least 90% sure I am literally incapable of ever casting mind control on anything with a pul- actually, Poncho, do you have a pulse?"
>"CHECKING NOW. ...I DO NOT."
>"Right. Anything with a pulse, and Blueberry can leave anytime she wants now, I don't tie her up or waste my magic on stupid curses, and if I did have these brainwashing abilities, I would have used them to make you strip naked, eat rat droppings, and group hug your resistance members while you try to peg them in the ass."
Voxl makes a face at you.
>"...wait, how'd you know about my tribe's rite of passage?"
Oh wow. That is a whole shitload of issues you don't wanna get into. Back to communist elf-man.
>"So, now, I've decided what to do with you."
>"Honestly, fuck the drugs, more trouble than they’re worth at this point, so it’s not worth trying to keep you alive throughout a castration. So now we’re going to play one more time, this time, we’re going to break your fingers one by one, make you eat them, and if you don’t hurry and wisen up, all that’s going to change is that you’ll be tortured for information on the city instead of being forced to supply drugs. On that note, do you like raw or cooked meat?”

Before you say anything else, Voxl runs up to elf-lenin and fucking clamps down on his left hand, ripping off his thumb with his left hand. Blueberry flinches, and Janna winces as well. Theodore screams in pain. Voxl shrugs.
>”What? Lizardmen eat anything, and this guy still called me a kid, and it’s not like he would have broken just under threat of finger food. …I only swallowed half of it, so you can still force him to it still.”
Wait, he’s confusing you again, are kobolds a subspecies of lizardmen or is it the other way around?
Theodore has finally begun to show signs of physical pain, which is... aw fuck, he hasn't been strip searched, and waterboarding is like, a great torture technique, he probably has something on him that helps them with this shit.
>”W-wait, a Sp- CASTER like you… you really don’t care about anything other than your craft, do you?”

Wat do?
>”...please tell me you’re not retarded enough to sell millitary secrets to enemy nations in hope of toppling the regime. Also, Voxl, get another finger.”
>”NOT GIVING ME DEETS ON HOW THE DRUGS ARE MADE OR THE MAGICAL CITY OF PRICKS! ANOTHER FINGER VOXL! THIS TIME YOU CAN HAVE THE WHOLE THING!”
> “Fun fact: humans are able to bite off fingers like carrots, but a mental block prevents them from doing so to other humans. However, you aren’t a human, and as such…” *do the bite yourself* “...nothing against elves… that aren’t you, you suck. Blueberry, you’re cool.”
>“Aw, did bitchboy steal a magic spell to deal with drowning but can’t handle a little Fin-GORE!? Voxl, for your loyal service and showing initiative, you can have... two this time.”

Personally, I find writing this prick to be super tedious, so I’m enjoying this just as much as you guys.

>>5102912
>No, but you have neen so fucking annoying that you lost good boy rights.
>So tell me the deets to drugs, magic or any secrets, and we just end this alreadyninstead of dragging on, because this dumb shit is painful for all of us. Maybe except for Voxl

>>5102912
Good idea Voxl! You keep biting fingers, and I'll search his pockets.
Command some rats to help with searching his entire body. Have a rat climb up his ass too, incase he has some kind of enchanted artifact up there.

>>5102921
No no, let's take a few more fingers.

Honestly biting his finger off ourselves seems more brutal. It also shows there's more strength than our incredibly limited magic talent

As much as it would be cathartic, it means dealing with this fuckhead for more. Just get the info and kill him already, it's not like he is going to supply us after being tortured anyway, specially since he hates casters.
I just wanna raise corpses for gods' sake.

>>5102936
The guy has been bullshiting up for the past few posts. He owns us a few fingers. And-

>Theodore has finally begun to show signs of physical pain, which is... aw fuck, he hasn't been strip searched, and waterboarding is like, a great torture technique, he probably has something on him that helps them with this shit.
this makes me believe we should stripe him, then try torturing him again. If we exhausted all torture option, then we're killing him. What we fail to do, is ignore him whenever he talks, which distracts us from torturing him.

>>5102956
But if we don't atleast hear whatever info he gives, than this whole shit has been a waste of time.
Torturing him for torturing sake is just being petty honestly, just order Poncho to crush his head if you just want him to suffer and die.

>>5102969
Now, if you torture him for more info and then get rid of him, I would atleast understand.
We have better things to do than just skinning a commie and not even getting something out of it, like raising the big boy with that skeleton pile, or beggining to work on the 6 shooter.

>>5102975
you're actually done prep work on both big boy and six shooter.

>>5102912
>”W-wait, a Sp- CASTER like you… you really don’t care about anything other than your craft, do you?”
FUCK IT! Spit it out you little shit! The second he calls us some slur or slits on us, I want Voxl to bite more fingers. If hes going to be a supplier, hes only getting 20%, AND we get the first few shipments on the house. I'm tired of his bullshit.

>>5102982
But we still got to raise them don't we? Or did I miss that part somehow?

>>5102985
yes, because you said "beginning to work" I thought that you thought that the six shooter wasn't ready to be raised yet. My bad.

>>5102912
>>“Aw, did bitchboy steal a magic spell to deal with drowning but can’t handle a little Fin-GORE!? Voxl, for your loyal service and showing initiative, you can have... two this time.”
Y'know, I still think we might be able to get him on side by trying to infuse him with magic... but he's an obnoxious cunt. We could always try "can we manipulate life-force???" experiments on him, though. Might be more effective than this torture shit since we don't really have the attention span for it.

>>5102982
Oh right we have all the skeletons we need for superbigboy, huh? Neat.

>>5102993
That's all right, it really does give off that meaning now that I reread it.

>>5102996
I kind of want to see if we can remove an arm, and replace it with a skeleton arm prosthetic. That way if he tries to remove it, it will kill him.

>>5102996
>>5103042
Doing some experiments on him could make the torture productive, but do we have a place to keep him locked? Like a cell or an empty basement? I'm not very keen on letting him go, I have a feeling he is going to backstab us as soon as he can.

>>5103137
We'll just have to kill him if it comes right down to it.

>>5102924

We want hamsters for that.

Strip him of all clothes and take off any magical stuff he has on him and call him a two faced lying splak jealous hypocrite for using magic.

>>5102996
Get him on our side? Our friend kicked him in the teeth, another bit a finger or two off, and we're torturing him. That's kind of off the table, but I do want to hear what he has to say to us now. Until we kill him.

>>5103137
A simple solution would be to have some zombies sitting on him. Elf's are twinks, ergo he wont be able to overpower several hundred pounds of dead meat.

Alas, rats are all we have, but they will work all the same.
