    You are CHLAON THE CHARRED, a minor, newly created Imp of the lowest order. You have, for the past week, been running around sowing havoc in the slums of a Nameless City in the frozen north. You have claimed a handful of souls within that week, and devoured them to gain power for yourself. Your sire, however, SAMAS TIRAZEL, has learned of your success and demanded your presence. And by demanded, he has forcibly summoned you to his Palace in the Pits of Hell.

    You stand before the Charnel Prince, the Soul-Glutton, dwarfed by his monstrous form. Even as a demon, it hurts the eyes to look directly, a massive, writhing cacaphony of mouths and tentacles, with a single, perfect, human form at its center.

    He has yet to speak.

    You shuffle your feet slightly, looking down at your still human-looking toes, before bowing down on your knees. As your forehead scrapes against the cold, wet stones of the floor, you hear his sibilant voice creeping inside your head once more.

    "My child, why do you avert your gaze? Do you fear me, pet? Do you think I have called you hear to punish you? You have done well, my child. Have you not claimed souls in my name? Have you not sown discord and havoc amongst the mortal races? Have you not served your own desires, and thus, my own? Stand, and discard the skin you wear. I want to look at my pet as she truly appears."

    You shed the disguise of human form, your hands forming claws, your tiny wings sliding free of your back, your stumpy tail bursting from your backside. Your skin darkens to it's normal blue as you open your mouth to speak.

    "I...I do not know why I am called, Master. That worries me."

    You hear a throaty chuckle reverberate around the room, not in your head.

    "We never assigned you, pet. Do you not remember? I was hardly done spawning you before you were called to the mortal realms. There is so much to teach you, so much you need to learn...subtlety, for one. I have been watching your adventures on the mortal planes, child. Already they advance to stop you. Do you truly think you could steal so many souls and not attract the ire of the Divine? It is but a trickle now, but as you continue to steal, the more they will try to stop you. As to that end...you are useful to me in that city, and assigning you elsewhere...well, that would be too easy now, wouldn't it?"

    You nod, if nothing else.

    "Now...we must find a sin for you, my pet. And I think I have the perfect one in mind, my little soul-glutton." As you look down, you see once more the souls of those you have taken them from burning brightly through your skin, illuminating you from the inside.

Burning away, always driving you to take more and more until you burst! Even the most idiotic Imp shies from soul-gluttony on a scale such as yours. But you do not shy away, no, you EMBRACE it.

    As his chortling becomes uproarious laughter, the tendrils that make up his form begin to inch towards you, slowly growing closer. In your fear, you turn to run, but they whip out and grab you by the legs, dragging you up in the air. The blanket falls from you, and the tendrils wrap around you like a cocoon, leaving only your face uncovered. They pull your eyes open, wrench your jaw until it dislocates, and squeeze around your throat.

    "You are such a small thing, child...we need to change that."

    And with that, you are drawn into his form, and, thankfully, pass out. Occasionally you awake to great pain and worse nightmares. Your teeth are wrenched free of your jaw, and hard metal jabbed into their place. Your skin is stretched, torn, replaced, over and over. Your eyes are ripped out, allowed to heal, and ripped out once more. He never stops laughing, never stops telling you that you agreed to this.

    And as your torture draws to a close after what seems like an eternity, you realize he...he did what?

    CHOICES AVAILABLE

    >Belly of the Whale
    Your innards were removed, leaving only a single digestive sac. You have no hard internal structure, but have the muscular control to retain human shape.
    >Bonechewer
    Your jaws have been strengthened to the point where you could bite through stone. Your strength overall is greater then that of a man.
    >Giant in Chains
    You were force fed and bloated, and bound with chains and sigils to a resemblance of your past form. You are far denser than anything of your size should be, and inhumanly tough. You can release the chains to grow, but binding yourself again pains and damages you as you force your bulk into a smaller cage.

    Wait wait wait, before we decide, we should figure out which one gives the most benefits to what we do.

    >Belly of the Whale
    So this basically means we can eat pretty much anything, and force ourselves through small spaces? Good for stealth, and combined with Soul-Thief, would make future upgrades easier, as we could swallow corpses whole.
    >Bonechewer
    Again, synergizes well with Soul-Thief, as it makes the process of devouring corpses much easier. It also makes defending ourself much easier, as we can simply resort to fisticuffs instead of flashy, draining shock spells.
    >Giant in Chains
    Sounds like it would blow our cover rather easily. Being far denser than we should be would be easily discoverable, and the benefit of increased survivability doesn't really cancel that out. In addition, what does BECOMING HUGE do for us?

    >> Monster Quest !!2+7gWdDw/nh 02/22/12(Wed)15:10 No.18057343
    Oh ok, applications?

    >Belly of the Whale
    Enhances your shapeshifting to a considerable degree. It won't let you get rid of, or create new limbs, but it will allow you to alter the shape of what's already there by a considerable amount. You'll also be able to force yourself through small spaces as you no longer have hard internal structure.
    >Bonechewer
    Should be pretty obvious. Enhanced strength and incredible biting capability, a huge combat boon. Biting will be awkward though.
    >Giant in Chains
    You can use the chains binding your bulk as weapons, become monstrously durable and hard to injure, but do not gain the ability to heal more easily. It's more like...ablative damage reduction. When you remove the chains, you become a giant, which is strong, but no tougher or stronger than a normal human of that size. About 20 feet tall, I'd say.

    Your innards were forcibly removed from your body until you were nothing more than a boneless sack flapping in the wind. It took a while to get used to the lack of bones, but eventually, without any aid from your chortling sire, you stood up.

    "Now my pet, we need to send you back to the mortal realms. It looks like your summoner needs your help again..."

    You already feel the tug of summoning pulling against your body, and you are helpless to resist as you are pulled once more into the summoning circle Eric has drawn in his now...quite neat and clean room.

    "There you are!" he exclaims exasperatedly.

    He rubs his chin in contemplation, massaging the peach fuzz growing there. Dear god, he's probably trying to grow a wizardly beard.

    The bindings fizzle and die, and you walk over to his bed, sitting down and snapping your fingers. "Food. Now, boy."

    "Oh uhm, ok, Mom made too much bread like always, I'll go get you some. But then you teach me magic!"

    He rushes downstairs, barreling down the stairs and waking up his mother, who yells at him to keep it down. He returns with an armload of bread and some sausages and butter.

    "Ok, this is all we can spare for now..." he drops it on the covers beside you.

    "Now, your friends and family are? I need to know them so I don't hurt them and break the contract."

    "Oh uhm, there's ma, you've met her. Then there's Jenny, she's a cute young girl with the most beautiful long flowing golden hair, she goes to the same university as me. Pa is off doing guard work like always, he's kind of a big fellow, scruffy black beard and missing his right eye."

    You find some glasses lying on his desk and have him rinse them out before pouring both of you a glass of fine wine from your creepy little mouth hands. He glances at the glass warily and sniffs at it before taking a drink, but ends up liking it.

    You teach him to cast a field of darkness to obscure the sights of men. Nothing you can't see through, of course...it would be silly to teach your student something that could harm you, wouldn't it?

    As the night goes on and the lesson continues, the mountain of food disappears bit by bit. As the sun sets, the pile of bread and sausage is gone, and the boy has managed to cast the spell once successfully. Drained by the effort of repeated spell attempts, he falls asleep in his bed, ignoring the crumbs littering the covers. He doesn't even get out of his clothes.

    Ignoring the thoughts of dresses intended for a much more full figured woman, you wrap the shawl-blanket tighter around you, making sure to cover everything before heading out into the city. You alter your skin tone and hair colour to once again match that of the average woman here, short, wide-hipped, dark haired, light-skinned, green eyed.

    You go invisible just in case and head outside to begin a night of thieving. Your first target being a tailor. The House of Eric is quite close to the mercantile district, and you don't even have to duck under the walls in the sewers to get in. The guard presence seems higher, for some reason. And as you pass through a gate, you notice a tall man, in splendid, guilded armour. He wears no helmet, holding it in his lap. He seems to look right through you for a few seconds, but goes back to talking with a beautiful woman sitting behind him on his white steed. They laugh over something you can't hear.

    You find the tailors store in due time, but it's locked.

    You look around to make sure no one is watching before remembering that you're still invisible to the eyes of men. Climbing up the buildings wall, you get to the roof and squeeze your way bonelessly down the chimney, opening into the basement floor. As you cough and splutter the soot and ash out of your lungs, you notice an old man with a curly white mustache and gaunt features sleeping in front of the fireplace, a thick comforter draped across his frame.

    You hesitate as you brush the soot off of yourself, not sure whether to devour the man or leave him alone for now. A thin sliver of drool runs down your mouth.

    Eventually, caught in hesitation, the old man wakes up. Still invisible, he doesn't notice you, and begins a creaking walk up the stairs.

    A young girl opens the door at the top of the stairs, she appears to be about 10 years in age.

    "Poppa? Didn't mom tell you not to fall asleep in front of th' fireplace again? You know that's bad for you!"

    He sweeps her up in a hug and ruffles her hair. "Don't worry Lisa, your old man is tougher than that. Now come on, let's get you some water and get you to bed. It's past your bed time, and y'need to get up early in the morning."

    You are left alone in the dark basement as he shuts the door behind him.

    That seems a nice thought. However, what I recall is the likely-divine-watcher that we passed on the way in. And that we want to save some effort for disappearing upon us being spotted on our way elsewhere. So, exhausting ourselves to better understand our limits is good, but not when we plan to do other things, like leave the building and go somewhere safe (presumably).

    Holding the dress draped over one arm, you sneak around to the back door and unlock it as quietly as you can. The door creaks open as you exit, and creaks even more as you close it behind you. You walk off in the night, still invisible. You return to Erics room without much difficulty, and stay invisible for an hour longer, at which point the exhaustion forces you to dismiss it. Without a clock, you can guess that you can stay unseen for about 2 hours before it overwhelms you.

    He's a bastion against evil and a true test of our ability to defeat or subvert good.
    We could use him to help hide our activities, as a foil to gain strength from, a possible boost in power to oppose our master, and a source of food and intelligence on the other side.

    And totally not because he seems dashing. Nope. Not at all.

    "Oh of course, a Gallant Knight can't simply walk into the dragons den before getting a kiss from the maiden, now can't he?"

    You motion for the armour to come off, and he happily obliges, revealing a rather unimpressive figure, rather chubby, overly hairy, and without any muscle tone whatsoever. He closes his eyes and puckers up for a kiss.

    That's not really the problem. The fact stays that he saw us leave with the other guard. You think he will stay quiet after the guard disappears? So they'll search for us and question us, if they have any means of magical detection then they'll learn that something is off about us.

    I feel dirty, and not in the best way. We seriously need to move up in the ranks, getting souls for favors rather than "favors". We also need to do more stuff quite directly in gluttony than leaning into lust.

    Lets look around this sort of area for now for now and see if we can't find some people who no one will miss, hunters, woodsmen, workmen, hermits, no one whose disappearance will be odd.

    Personally, I think at this low level stage we should stock up on passive bonuses, so things like celerity and predators vision.
    There is plenty of time to get funky abilities later, however things like the aforementioned abilties are always on and always useful.

    In that case, I propose the following.
    We stockpile souls for a while. We wait and see how many souls it takes to get each tier of abilities, we don't blow them all on the fucking soul-thief upgrade the moment it becomes available, we wait and see what we can potentially get access to and then plan.
    How many souls can we hold at once?
    How many upgrades can we get in what period of time if we stockpile them?
    Does stockpiling souls grant us more uber-upgrades and an evolution like last time?
    Can we gain additional vices by doing this?
    Etc etc.

    The Divine are the Immaculate host of angelic deities and heroes elevated to Divine Status. Though bound by rules and stipulations that prevent them from interacting directly with the material realms, unlike the Demon Princes, who are simply too weak to pierce the veil without the aid of mortal wizards.

    Don't think of them as pretty things though, they're still horrifying eldritch abominations and concepts given form, think Old-School Biblical Angels.
