    20 KB Doppelganger Bootleg Quest VI Tollymain !!ze5GOtMjMiN 03/14/11(Mon)20:02 No.14243127  
    After you accidentally frightened a man into slitting his own throat out of fear, you took his sack of cheap trinkets. You decided to take a trip to the slums, hoping to find some more easy prey. A couple gullible drugged-up thugs later, you acquired some actual combat proficiency. You then organized your belongings in the safety of the gnome's former room. By this point, night had fallen, so you decided to go talk to the elf. One dog later, you had a short conversation with the elf (his name's Gave by the way); sadly it was interrupted by a collector who seems intent on taking a debt out of Gave's skin.

    You currently appear to be a small, dark-skinned child with feral pinched features, sharp teeth, and rather hairy limbs. You're wearing some highly concealing clothing you took from a dead gnome. What you really are is a doppelganger-like creature capable of taking the appearance or abilities of anything you devour.

    What do you do?

    Picture is what you sort of look like right now: Take away the hat and wrap the scarf around the head and it'd be perfect.

    Also, if people could post good picture of middle-eastern cities for me to point out as examples of the city you're in, that'd be awesome.


    Finally, Tolly's General Rules:
    First choice of action to receive 3 votes, no matter how stupid or suicidal, will be undertaken. Especially retarded choices may receive a "Are you sure?", first.
    Addendum: If there just aren't enough posts after about 10 minutes, first to two (or just plain first) decides.

    All things are decided by my dice. If something attacks you, and the dice say it crits and nearly kills you, you better get ready to run.

    Joke options may be given when I am tired and think they are hilarious. See: Death Blossom. These options are not actually on the table.

    Do please enjoy yourselves.

    If so, sneak attack and slit Gave's throat, then finish off the thug.

    Otherwise "rush" in and stab the thug, and when Gave is all, "WHY'D YOU DO THAT!?" Be all, "I thought he was gonna hurt you, lololol."

    Go in and see what's up. Offer to take the guy out back or something, and om out of sight. If he asks where you took the body, just tell him that he woke up faster than expected, and he took off.

    This has two things going for it-

    1) We get to nom a thug

    2) Hijinks ensue as Gave gets in trouble for killing a thug

    There's not exactly a run on people to eat. We are in a city after all, and there are bound to be hundreds more just like it all over. And the sooner we eat him, the more powerful we become, and the quicker and easier we can eat others.

    Knowledge: Local, I suppose.

    Infodump: The city's three main crimebosses are Veni, Suga, and Kallos. Veni's a bit of a sketch; he likes to use children in his operations. Suga's from up north; he's said to have a twisted sense of honor. Kallos is the one to really be afraid of: he's brutal, short-tempered, and imaginative. Gave's in debt to all of them, and hates their guts; but he's not stupid enough to antagonize them needlessly.

    Prestidigitation
    Casting Time 1 standard action
    Components V, S
    Range 10 ft.
    Target, Effect, or Area see text
    Duration 1 hour
    Saving Throw see text; Spell Resistance no
    Prestidigitations are minor tricks that novice spellcasters use for
    practice. Once cast, a prestidigitation spell enables you to perform
    simple magical effects for 1 hour. The effects are minor and have
    severe limitations. A prestidigitation can slowly lift 1 pound of
    material. It can color, clean, or soil items in a 1-foot cube each
    round. It can chill, warm, or flavor 1 pound of nonliving material.
    It cannot deal damage or affect the concentration of spellcasters.
    Prestidigitation can create small objects, but they look crude
    and artificial. The materials created by a prestidigitation spell are
    extremely fragile, and they cannot be used as tools, weapons,
    or spell components. Finally, prestidigitation lacks the power to
    duplicate any other spell effects. Any actual change to an object
    (beyond just moving, cleaning, or soiling it) persists only 1 hour.

    i wasnt saying it should be removed, tolly mentioned the effects only lasted an hour i was just clarifying

    God damn it, I wanted to eat a sexy maid. This fucking sucks. Let's abscond before we get our stupid AERIAL DIVING ASS murdered.

    So, any questions, comments, concerns? Anybody want information on the setting I have this in? Anybody want to slap me like a bitch for that small bit of trolling?

    I figure stupidity can warrant a bit of jerking around. Probably won't happen again, due to the lost element of surprise.

    These threads are the highlight of my week, so obviously I don't have a lot to complain about, aside from that small bit of railroading at the end there. But I'm sure you're using it to lead the game in an interesting direction, so whatev.

    The setting is actually pretty interesting, and I'm enjoying learning about it a little at a time from our hungry little buddy's point of view.

    Railroading? Nah. Shit happens is all. The doppel's still alive, quest is still running. Just so happens that now you have a cliffhanger, and shit's probably going to go down some more next thread. I'm dropping off in 10, so any questions? GMing advice? Long and imaginative strings of insults?

    Ugh, deus ex machina to save us?

    Don't do that. Either do the hamfisted "OH BUT THEY ALL BOTCH HOW WACKY LUCKY" while we're alive, or just stick by your guns and say we're dead. This..."You're helpless, have pissed everyone off, and inexplicably left to live!" is the worst of both worlds.

    To be fair, we've been pretty lucky so far. We've had some close scrapes that we just barely escaped from, by the GM's good graces.

    [spoiler]We will come back and eat that maid though. This, I swear...[/spoiler]

    It's a city in a highly lawful society ruled by a bureacracy. Maybe if you'd pissed some tribal warlord you'd be executed immediately. As it is, get ready to plead insanity in front of an apathetic court.

    I'm happy to have us live and keep the game going, no matter how it happens.

    Wait, don't we have ferocity? doesn't that mean we can keep going even when in negative HP?
    >> Anonymous 03/15/11(Tue)04:21 No.14247061

    Nope. Everybody wanted the +3 hitpoints toughness gives, even though Ferocity is sort of like having 13 extra right now. Urggh
