Discussion here:

You are a human-form gargoyle crafted of marble set to protect a small town on the frontier of the wild darkness. Your people are still ignorant of what you are, and rightfully so.

Knowledge of what you are would simply prove that they fear you or the monsters among them tempt your destruction.

Last night: During your daylight hours within your church, you received a rather strange visitor... The young girl that you had failed... Molly.

Upon hearing you speak, the girl broke down into near pleading sobs even with her eyes that of a demon.

Intruding upon the display, Pastor Clegane presents his own life force as a substitute for the girl's hunger.

However this proved to be a ploy on his part to end the girl's demonhood with a silver dagger to her back.

However, instead of consuming her, Angel had a different idea... One in which the girl could live in some... other way.

By nightfall, a gargoyle was born in the town of Hearthson.

Awaken Angel, the night is dark...

You incline your head forward with a nod in affirmation to her question," I am called Angel. A name I wear with pride, though I am not one myself..." You withhold some of your words...

You begin to explain the basics of being a gargoyle, however Marble promptly shushes you.

"She just came into being, we can go over that once she's better situated."

You concede, however promise that you will teach her well.

Marble nods and smiles," I'm quite sure you will, though this is my first gargoyle.. amazed she's not going crazy and killing people..." Marble laughs nervously, as if that actually happens often...

You reflect upon the knowledge that Gargoyles are commissioned.

"I.. will pay you... consider this a direct commission..."

Marble looks at you a bit strangely, before snickering a bit," Oh, you... so polite.. I... Technically, I should never have done this... I... only chose to because you asked...

She doesn't exist, okay? I didn't make her. I could be hung for this you know... Eh... I'm going to get to cleaning up."

Pastor Clegane approaches her," Allow me to assist you."

You sense life approach as you make idle small-talk with the new Gargoyle, you get a feel out for what she currently knows.. it seems that she knows more than what a human girl would.. likely from some influences in her make...

In time, as Marble and Clegane finish cleaning up the construction mess, you feel a familiar life force at the door.

Alice pokes her head in and her eyes go wide at seeing Marble, Clegane, you, and the new gargoyle.

Her voice squeaks out like a mouse," Wh-what's going on in here?"

You look to her and then to Clegane.

He answers," We were just being introduced to a second defender of this village. She has no name yet, however she seems to be just as gentle as our own Angel."

Alice enters fully and seems a bit wary of the new Gargoyle, that is, until she sees the corpse of Molly still laying on the altar....
>>
>21:00
Ehh, close enough.
>>
>>24795736

Sorry, fml, I totally spaced on what the server time is relevant to mine.

I swear, that's the only thing I'm out of it on...

I swear I thought I was on time.

I swear that shit will go down this night.
>>
>>24795769
It's cool.

I always have to open an incognito window to check server time because I cba to subtract 1.

And I get paranoid over little things, like whether or not I subtracted 1 correctly.

Anyways, I'm down for shit.
>>
>>24795826
And I just realized that it's actually add one. I'm a dipshit ._.
>>
Alice unleashes a very audible gasp and clasps her hands over her mouth as she stares at the body, the blood caked on your pedestal.

Pastor Clegane and Marble immediately approach her together, and drag her out of the church before she says or does anything.

You hear a delayed scream outside, Alice as the source, and you sense Marble and Clegane trying to calm her down.

The nameless Gargoyle before you looks at the body of the girl lying upon the altar.

She walks up to it, gingerly.

You move to try to stop her for a moment, yet you unconsciously retract your hand.. She's already seen it.. You can only observe how she will take this.

The nameless Gargoyle kneels down before your pedestal and touches the girl's cheek, staring at it intently.

You hear her voice resonate within the room,"Poor... child... I wish... Someone could've helped her."

You feel something of a rock within your metaphoric throat...

"Someone tried. We can prevent such from happening together. That is our purpose."

The Gargoyle looks up to you from her kneeling position," Our purpose?"

You nod slowly, speaking out," Yes, our purpose to protect those that we have sworn to.

I protect the peace of this town... yet even I have my... unfortunate limits..."

The Nameless Gargoyle rises and walks up to you, her body, swinging with a gait almost like that of a beast. She places a single hand upon your shoulder and her features turn into a smile," We all.. need aid now and then... right? I... will do what I can.. From what I... understand... I.. am because of you.. Do.. You have a name for me?"

>[] Remain traditional, the people will name her.
>[] Name her(Write in)
>>
>>24795952

Thus results in our collective insanity!
>>
>>24795971
Let the people name her.

I keep trying to think of names but everything I come up with just feels corny or inappropriate.
>>
>>24795971
I could name you yes. But it meant something special to me to have the ones I protect name me. I do not wish to deny you that.
>>
Minnie is a name meaning "Loving Memory".

That may be appropriate. But it feels kinda weird. Also Minnie Mouse kinda makes me not want it.

But it still sounds nice...
>>
You kindly shake your head at the request"I could indeed name you.. But it meant something special to me to have the ones I protect name me... I would not deny you that."

The Nameless Gargoyle tilts her head and frowns for a moment before returning to a blank statuesque expression,"Fine... What... should we do now?" Her hand leaves your shoulder and you hear the three humans enter the church once more.

Alice seems to have calmed down from before, yet she keeps her eyes away from the body she nearly whispers," I'll be helping with the cleanup as well.. I sleep here anyway, it wouldn't be right anyway..."

As Alice and Clegane resume removing the fragments of Marble from the church floor, they shove it in a "pocket" that Marble previously designated.

With the current company working hard, Marble comes up to you and the Nameless Gargoyle.

"Alright... I want you to know that you're my firt actual Gargoyle ever.. Now, while that should be exciting, don't be, I'll need to keep an eye on you.. My work was a bit hasty, and I'm not certain just how unstable or powerful you are.

Marble looks to you," Angel, I'll be borrowing your friend here, need to run some tests."

"Should I be concerned? You said it is unusual that she's not rampaging." You inquire, yielding a curious look from the Gargoyle.

Marble chides," Oh, now now... I may only have recently made my first gargoyle, but I'm still technically a Mason. Actually, I'm technically a full fledged one if she makes it past a week..." She starts to mumble that last part.

"Excuse me?" You growl, that is not something you wanted to hear.
>>
>>24796608
"But I thought we needed to keep this a secret for fear of hanging?"
>>
Marble holds her hands up," I'm sorry, I'm so sorry... But look, uhh, I'm going to be looking out for her. It's not uncommon that new Gargoyles begin to go mad after the first week.. Then again, it's a given granted our usual.. "stock." Other Gargoyles tend to go mad after a year, some make it past that point, oh those ones tend to be past a comfort zone of the nobles in high-danger areas such as this... Oh look at me, I'm rambling..." She laughs a bit nervously, as she backs away from you.

Something caught your attention... A week? A year? It now dawns on you, that you may even go mad within a month.. "Marble."

"Ah.. Yes?"

"How old is the Shadow?"

"Oh, of Evidas?"

"Yes."

"That one... if my memory serves right is at about a year and two months. She's maintained her current level of clarity for quite some time... The first Mason that noted the degrade of her mind at the 2 month period is rather surprised that she's been so stable. Reckless yes, however she's kept Evidas rather free of casualty. . . That may however just be the fear she's instilled in the supernaturals..."

You recall that even the Wendigo seemed to fear her, she.. wait she?
"The Shadow is a she?"

"Ah, well, yes... If the records are correct. Few refer to Gargoyles as people.. Even among the Masons..."

"From before, about being a full fledged Mason, you need to keep her secret for fear of hanging, yes?"

Marble's eyes go wide," Ah, ah yes... Oh, oh god. Heh.. Thank you for reminding me, I got a touch ahead of myself.. regardless, I'll know that I'm a full fledged Mason, and she'll continue on for some time as long as she's healthy.

The nameless Gargoyle has appeared lost this entire time in conversation," W-what... what is... going on?"

Marble gently puts her hand upon the cheek of the New Gargoyle," You'll understand given some time dear... Stay here with me for tonight, we'll get you all set up."

The Statuesque Woman nods and follows Marble to an open area within the church.
>>
You notice, as does Marble that Clegane has begun to remove the body from your pedestal

The Mason runs over and whispers to him quickly, he gives a nod and heads off.

You may have to ask what she said to him later.. she didn't seem to want the Gargoyle to hear...

What will you do tonight?

If we do not pacify her one way or another she will do her best to ruin us. And now we have loved ones for her vengeance.

Well shit.

WE MAKE HOLES IN TEETH
>>
You decide to take on your regular patrol of the town, you streamline your form, increasing the density of your marble, you feel your new copper veins hitting the air in the process.

You leave the church and open wing into the cloudless night sky.

You perform a complete circle around the town, cloaking yourself with a nearly tangible shadow.

You don't... sense anything out of the ordinary... yet there is a foreboding feeling in the air tonight...

You feel... watched.

You feel watched, when you shouldn't be. You're not a conspicuous creature, and you are wrapped within your shadows.

You hear a voice echo in the night. Whispering, distinctly vindictive, and... Singsong?" We are the offended, for thou hath trespassed too near. Tonight, the Unseelie shall show you such fear."

Alarm rings through your body at once, and you look around, seeing nothing, yet, however you sense the alarm that begins to overtake the guardsmen within the streets.

You tune into your voice of the wind and feel the tiny, masses of distortions in the air pressure...

The tooth fairies have descended upon Hearthson.

"Revel shall we if the accused should worry, to save thy charges, thou shall need hurry."

You see the guardsmen fleeing from their posts at the edge of the palisade, the infestation of tooth fairies hasn't gotten too far as of yet. it is your luck that the monsters are so small, yet there are just... so many.

Any words you'd like to share in demanding such a duel? Likely to the death.
>>
>>24798044
WE. MAKE. HOLES. IN. TEETH.
>>
>>24798044
No, but I'd like to remind the rest of the players that we had to remove the wendigo lord's support crew before effectively taking him out, and not doing that in our meditative stake had...amusing consequences.
>>
>>24798044
Once again you have the temerity to attack me and mine. Tonight is the night you fall!

Go cloak of shadows before she appears. We need all the advantages we can get.
>>
A well within you begins to boil.. A mixture of anger, frustration, at the sheer audacity of this fae. Not willing to leave this between the two of you, it seems that the Fae would go so far as to declare war upon your village.

Your anger boils until you unleash an unearthly howl, rivaling that of the Shadow of Evidas.

You feel your magic power at maximum, and despite the cloudless sky, you will put everything you have into defending your charges.

You hear that voice sing along the air once more,"Oh, dear, is that the howl of a beast mad? Unshackled, unchained? We should see to it that it finds despair even beyond the grave."

You've had enough with this foul trick, the mocking above the town," Once again, you have the temerity to attack me and mine. Tonight is the night that you shall fall! Show yourself, Lady of Teeth! The Angel of Hearthson demands it!"

"It uses such titles as though they were names, yet we shall give answer...." First the Maw of the fairy appears before you, her teeth glistening in the light of the crescent moon, then the rest of her lithe body comes through the shadowy veil that she commands,"To you, we wish the same."

The regal, yet dark aura of the Fae before you seems to twist and twirl the air itself. Before you floats, the Lady of Teeth, a Duchess of the Unseelie.

oh wow, exactly what we needed.
>>
>>24798712
Ok, no need for me to roll, right?
>>
>>24798721
I think we should tag ourselves. Use it to hopefully hit her with a sneak attack.

(What do you guys think about spending our 3 xp, we might need a bit of an edge.)
>>
>>24798721
Her? If we hit ourself I don't think it's goin anywhere.
>>
>>24798745
What are you thinking of buying?
>>
>>24798721
Do we only discharge stored electricity through direct contact, or can we throw a lightning bolt later in the fight?
>>
>>24798758
>>24798745
Our self, definitely. That way if we get a solid hit we can discharge it right into her.
>>
>>24798800

Either, won't need to summon the lightning again until you're completely out of electricity.

so we failed the first roll but made the last two... by 40+ on both.
>>
>>24799018
Yeah...sorry bout that first roll...glad we have decent regen.
>>
Also Mason I think we're buying Shadow Forge for this battle barring any objections.

>>24798887
>>24798910
me and 1 supporter.
>>
>>24799071
Shadow forge is the one that lets use make shadow weapons?

I'm gonna have to look at the trees real quick, but I might support it.
>>
>>24799172
yup, they aren't any greater then normal weapons... but thats better then bare hands.
>>
>>24799172
Earthen and natural would be better. massive bonus to primal magics.
shadow weapons are not inherently powerful, we need weapons of iron and silver.
>>
Before this opponent, you realize quite well that you cannot hesitate, you must strike first.. but you cannot let her catch you too easily.. the last night was horrible with out she had you at every turn.

Yet, just as you begin to consider and remember her viscious assault from last night, it begins. Her form vanishes from before you and she cleaves off your left arm with a snap of her jaws, billowing shadows drifting from behind the maw as she reforms in your peripheral.

"It is quite the nasty thing, iron and other things within such flesh, perhaps we shall enjoy better the meal that comes next?"

You spare no time, enduring her cryptic words and summon lightning into your body, using the exposed copper of your missing arm to conduct the majority. With the crack of thunder and the flash of light, the Fairy looks at you, eyes rounder and more surprised than usual.

"Odd thing it does-" You wrap shadows around your crackling form and rush her, discharging smaller bursts of lightning that wrack her body even as she performs that trick with shadows. She appears behind you and you turn to through a bolt at her, only for it to fly into the weather vein of a farmhouse.

The miss yields an opportunity for the Lady of Teeth as she once more appears behind you and biytes into your shoulder, receiving a massive discharge of all you the remaining electricity.

She bites down deeper to your dismay, yet she doesn't tear the piece off. After the shock, she opens her maw and fades back partially into... whatever Unseelie magic that is.

With your remaining arm, you shove the bitten piece back into place and it hooks in as it begins to regenerate. A missing arm is a big deal, but a few cracks? They'll be gone soon.

You dive down at the Fairy she remains visible, and throw out a fist that clocks her right in the teeth, yet you see a chip in your own fist instead.

The Lady comes back around and out of her daze, her rhyming disrupted by her fury," You do so very well to anger us.
>>
>>24799071
Sure, throw a third vote behind that. Might also want to start working toward Mind Peer if we want to keep on top of our new co-worker/charge's mental stability...
>>
We definitely should not eat her without some sort of a deal, she is too powerful.

Gargoyles don't go mad, they lose control to the souls within them. It seems even the gargoyle makers are ignorant of that, we should definitely have a long discussion with marble about our inner domain and the ability to merge willpowers (how the wendigos united, how when broken they still resist).
>>
>>24799239
at the moment we can run out of magic awfully quick... we need backup to our magical abilities and Shadow Forge covers that. However I can support getting Earthen alongside Shadow Forge.
>>
>>24799266
eat her first THEN make a deal. Or subjugate her. Leaving her outside means she can pull too many tricks.
>>
Cast fae fire at her.

>>24799293
If we eat her we cannot make any good deals.
We leaving her outside means she is dead for good. We need to kill someone to eat them.
>>
>>24799293
Also if we eat her and she is powerful enough she takes over our body completely. And I get the feeling she is powerful enough.
>>
Leaving her outside our body is an even bigger mistake then not eating her. PLus we have allies on the inside. We wouldn't be doing this alone.
>>
Alright I'll indulge you... what deal do you think we can offer a Duchess of the Unseelie?
>>
>>24799378
Just ignore MrTT. He's an obnoxious cunt that plagues every quest.
>>
>>24799342
If she takes control of the fae portion of our nature (she is a duchess), a distinct possibility, then I think the balance we've managed to craft won't last long... Thinking that she's remotely close to eating is probably premature though.
>>
>>24799399
The wendigo lord is at the very least powerful enough to cause this one pause. And with our true allies if she does not bend her knee... then we will treat her as the wendigo lord and subdue her completely. And unlike the wendigo lord she does not have 9 powerful demons at her beck and call.
>>
She grinds her teeth in anger, yielding a sound that screeches out into the town. A veil of small, bloody bodies lifts from the town and you see that there are at least hundreds, if not thousands of the little tooth fae interested in devouring you.

The Lady of Teeth has called upon her backup... For now, the faerie's feast upon humans has ended....

The Lady of Teeth hums softly among the swarm and the many little bodies not only obscures your vision, but your sense of the wind and life as the wing and heartbeats destroy your perceptions.

The Lady of Teeth has vanished completely, by magic and trick...

Faerie Fire. Mark her.

Also mark the Lady with Fae Fire next time we got the chance.

Subjugated creatures do not suppress others.

Fortunately, the Fae have a very deep hatred of Demons.

Gust is 2 Mana
Fae Fire is 5. Approved?

I'd almost like to buy burning body so that all those little fuckers get torched if they touch us.

>>24799432
She has over 100 of them. Or did you forget we consumed about 100 tooth fairies.

>>24799378
I am saying we should kill her and let her soul dissipate because we do not have a deal to offer her.
You are saying we should eat her and then make a deal with her once she is inside us, at which point she will be fighting to take over.
>>
>>24799597
Im saying we should subjagate her and let her minions disipate.

Purchasing Shadow Forge. If there are any opposed, speak now or forever hold your piece.

Only person is TT, and hes outvoted.

Burning body would be immediately more useful for burninating the tooth fairies.

Mana cost is an issue.

I wonder how Cari would feel about us subjugating a member of the Unseelie nobility?

Please proceed.

>>24799683
there are only 2 for it and 2 against it.
>>
>>24799263
>>24798910
>>24798887

3 actually. Maybe 4 if this >>24799720 anon is voting.
>>
>>24799788
Supporting shadow forge. Our fists cracked wehen we tried to hit her.
>>
>>24799706
We are most likely dying here.
If we do kill her and are silly enough to consume her soul, she will likely take over our body.
Also cari knows little about fae politics, transforming into a fae or demon does not automatically grant any knowledge and she has been pretty ignorant about fae thus far.
>>
>>24799813
I doubt it. I seriously doubt it. We have internal allies and she is weaker inside us without access to her Shadows and minions.
>>
>>24799830
Well, maybe. Also, I just realized we could perhaps convince her to only assist us in suppressing demons, in exchange for us hunting down other demons.

I can't believe though that we spent an entire day sleeping without bothering to go inside and take a look at the scylla.
>>
>>24799857
We also spent a good bit of time making a Molly gargoyle.

Now fuck off. You're a blight.

When we tried to hit her body she dodged, when we hit her in the teeth she let us hit.

Avoid striking at her teeth from now on and instead aim for her body.
>>
>>24799955
Jesus fucking shitballs you're an annoying person.
>>
>>24799970
No shit, captain obvious.
>>
Now that we have shadow forge we can go for a punch and when she blocks with her teeth we change our blow into a sword into the body instead. Couple that with Fae Light.
>>
You ascend higher into the sky upon the winds of a powerful gust. You fly higher and higher until the Tooth fairies in pursuit are all lined up.

You throw down a punishing gust that scatters the very lot of them to the ground, clearing the airways once more.

You feel a change in the air pressure and pull back your hand just in time to hear the snap of the Lady's teeth upon naught but air.

Her glowing eyes gleam ay you angrily as she places her irregular insect-like hands upon you, locking you in place.

Seeing an opportunity, you cast your recently acquired spell "Fae Fire" upon her, casting an odd glow upon the creature, yet that does not giver her pause.

If the strategy is so obviously why am I the first to mention it?

Time to put Shadow Forge to the use. Lock her body up and strike. With Sword and Dagger.

Only have one arm right now...
>>
Alright, probably a dagger into her body, then once her grip weakens change it into a sword for hacking.
>>
>>24799987

This quest hasn't been too bogged down by negative attitudes... Let's be civil gentleman... Be cool.
>>
>>24800030
>really need eldritch
I been sayin' it for a while now...

Anyway, hit her with lightning.

>>24800038
Because you're the only person that feels the need to shit up every quest by writing essays about obvious and / or tedious shit. Fuck off, you prick.
>>
>>24800030
grapple, aim to stab her somewhere soft with a shadowforged weapon.
>>
>>24800108
Might I recommend burning hands instead?
>>
Honestly we need a lot of things... which means we need to eat more.
>>
>>24800108

I'll give him credit for being so observant. Ironically, It's helped me keep my shit together.

Which bears to mind, I'm going to post the Fae spell descriptions on the discussion tomorrow,

Still trying to get a login for the quest Wiki,
>>
>>24800133
We can just add flaming hands to whatever we do, so lets do that.
>>
I can support burning hands. Of course its only one hand... but its better then nothing. And who knows maybe our shadow weapons conduct heat.
>>
>>24800152
If we'd bought burning body instead of shadow forge we'd be igniting all of us. But noooooo. Had to get shadow forge and not use it.
>>
>>24800174
we're using it this turn.

Gave you the option to beg this bitch for forgiveness.

Anyway. Shadow forge and Burning hands are incompatible. The fire creates enough light to dissipate the darkness. it's one or the other.
>>
... I vote the shadow weapon then. Its soemthing we haven't used on her and sees seen burning hands.
>>
>>24800238
+1

I hope it doesn't backfire since she seems to control shadows herself, she might be strong against shadow and weak to fire.

With the close quarter's and the Fae taking on your only armed side, you feel a tinge of despair as she brings her maw to your shoulder, breaking into your last remaining arm.

It is to your crude turn of fortune that she does not take it. She glares deeply at your face and her jaw unhinges like a snake, even as she entangles her seemingly delicate body around yours.

You thrash with wings and your one arm even as the two of you begin to fall.

She obscures your vision as she bites intoi your head, chomping at it savagely, causing ruinous damage to you and destroying your vision.

Curiously, the Fae so close destroying you stops prematurely, only for you to feel the cruel reminder that gravity exists and the earth is hard.

You feel one of your wings break off, and your body is in an awful state.

Rising, you realize that due to Fae-fire you can still see the flighty Fae even without eyes or your ability to detect life affecting her.

"Pitiful and blind, soon your life shall unwind. " The Fae chides as you feel the countless little faeries causing havoc once more upon the villagers.

You notice that a group of the tooth faeries are fleeing from something, and being snuffed out.

You sense the Lady of Teeth lunge for you, and you tap into your shroud of Shadiow reflexively, lashing out with it utilizing your remaining hand. Her presence immediately backs off.

"Thou hath spilt our own blood for the first time since meeting. T'is misfortune that this is not the end of our seething. Shadows you have, yet the night is ours."

The control you had on your cloak of Shadow vanishes in an instant with a wave of the Lady's hand.

You are blind, one armed, unarmed, and grounded... What will Angekl do?

Mana (9/22)

>[] Strike at her! She shall die even if it kills you!
>[] Defend, you shall not run, yet you will not advance.

>>24800599
Nobody is asking you to not hate me, they only explicitly asked you not to shitpost on this quest by posting flame at me. And you were only asked to stop after the 5th post in a row doing that.
>>
>>24800736

>What will Angel do?*
>>
>>24800736
Lightning.
>>
>[] Strike at her! She shall die even if it kills you!
Call down the lighting to her and manifest a spear to strike her if it fails... and even if it strikes true.
>>
lightning*
>>
>>24800809
>>24800814

Interesting.. and risky...

Calling lightning from a cloudless sky will bring you to 3 mana... and has a DC of 90.
>>
>>24800839
DC90 before or after the +20 from primal?
>>
>>24800839
...
Nevermind.

Seems you really want us to just surrender.

Or we just fucked things up really bad the last few threads.
>>
>>24800839
Its our only ranged spell right now and we're kinda outta options.
>>
>>24800839
In that case I'm advocating a general policy of run the fuck away
>>
>>24800850
We could aim to buy time... there is something out there killing her minions, there is lady manse and other individuals.
We could try to negotiate seriously or just to buy time for regeneration
>>
>>24800856
>One wing, can't fly
>Can't see anything but the LoT

Good luck.
>>
>>24800848

Before Primal Heart.

So technically 70 will work.

>>24800849

I'm only writing the story, what you guys do is your choice.
>>
>>24800882
I still don't trust it. We'd be getting some kind of reduction for being blind, right?
>>
>>24800907

Due to Fae Fire, you see exactly where she is. It's really a rather neat spell.
>>
Lets try to engage her in conversation. At the very least we would regen some.

"Perhaps I would die here, but if so hear my last words. You called me a demon, but my mind is fae and thus I shall be called"
Lets roll with more talking from there.
>>
It's one of those times no one actually wants to pick a course of action...
>>
>>24800953

I've noticed... It's the despair of what's to come...
>>
>>24800953
They're all just different roads to Deathville.
>>
Well we could improve our chances with buying Earthen... its only a +3 though.
>>
>>24800951
I'm supporting this, at least for the fact that we aren't necessarily doing anything that leads to our immediate death.
>>
Berserk or force both 1 point and could help too. Especially if we talk to buy time and then appear resigned to our fate until she comes at us to finish us off, also buys time for any allies to appear.

And we can still try to lightening her, worse case scenario it fails and we lose some mana which isn't helping us now anyways.
>>
Normally Beserk would be madness while in town... but the only thing we can see is her. I like it.
>>
>berserk
Do it
>>
>>24801050

Surprised you guys decided to forego berserk for so long.. you've had control for a while now which helps you refrain from killing non-enemies.

However Silver veins will reduce the overall potential.

Currently writing for speech... if you want to purchase berserk reverify this please...
>>
verifying Its our last resort after lightning fails.
>>
Well, depending on her reply to our first sentence we might be able to talk long enough to stand a chance of running somewhere to grab something iron to fight with...
>>
>>24801086
/verify
>>
>>24801094
Speech, then lightening, then berserk.
>>
>>24801111
Lightning and berserk as fallbacks if speech doesn't work right?
>>
I seriously doubt our Noble Fae speech is going to work.
>>
>>24801151
Well our history of violent interactions with her have not worked very well either, while our social(ish) interactions with her have been... non-existent
>>
>>24801151
Every second it delays the attack is more time to regenerate.
I am really hoping she VERBALLY protests or asks for clarification, in which case we can spend more time bantering.

We could also try asking what the full extent of her punishment and revenge is going to be to get her monologuing... and provide fuel for berserking.
>>
>>24801193
"So then, oh noble duchess of the unseeliegh court, how exactly do you intend to punish me?"
>>
Metaphorically staring death in the face, you feel at a loss for your action. Every instinct within you whether it be borne from your demonic soul or your programming screams at you just to attack her, kill her, destroy her...

Yet at this point, you understand that it would be in vain to attempt to fight her. You stay upon a knee on the earth, you know not what the ground under you is like.

"Perhaps I would die here, but if so... hear my last words. You called me a demon, but my mind is fae and thus I shall be called."

While you can't see the expression of the Lady of Teeth, you can see her outlines.

She tilts her head and begins to hover in the air, some distance from you," We, the Fae, judge actions and what one would say. You trespass our land, and upon my children you would prey."

You roar at that part, it is not true. "They tried to eat ME and I retaliated!"

The Lady of Teeth does not flinch,"Such matters are for naught given satisfaction paid this night. Our children take one hundred of yours to set matters right. "

You rise up, and feel the tiny jaws of stray tooth fairies gnawing upon your body. You move to squash them, yet freeze as you realize that it would lead to further loss of human life.

With some pain, internal, you keep this talk going as you feel your face begin to slide back into place.. though it's still a long way from done.

"So, this is the punishment of a noble duchess of the unseelie?! A massacre in reparation for a slight on me?"

You hear a giggle from the Unseelie creature," Ah, yes. We see it now. The slight bit of Fae in you even now. You sou-"

You hear a shrill and piecing screech from the creature that's been making its approach upon you.

You hear the sound of it landing, an audible stone on stone.

The unseelie looks over in the direction of the new presence," How.... unsightly... This... monstrosity..."

You hear the voice of a demon scream," Killl! Kill them allll!"
>>
>>24801315
Molly doesn't have regen yet. She's so fucked...
>>
>>24801315
Now. While she is distracted. Lightning strike. Beserk. Destroy. Eat.
>>
>>24801400
We don't even know what's happening yet...
>>
>>24801315
>Killl! Kill them allll!"
Well its not like we can buy any more time.
Lightening followed by berserk. (we can still see her via fae fire right?)
>>
Unfortunately, I'm going to need to go to bed. Getting hard to put these words together. . . About to pass out on the keys too!

Clifffffhanger!
>>
>>24801426
>>24801400

We're talking and she's not murdering us, yet you want to go back to her wiping the floor with us as soon as possible. We're still blind and one-armed. At least wait as long as possible until we have to fight.
>>
>>24801463
>We're talking and she's not murdering us
>The unseelie looks over in the direction of the new presence," How.... unsightly... This... monstrosity..."
>You hear the voice of a demon scream," Killl! Kill them allll!"

Wait a minute, is the "voice of a demon" screaming kill them all the tooth fairy or molly?

Also, we are visually blind but we have life sense, air sense, and earth sense. We should actually be able to see everything except things whose magic is powerful enough to block us. Like this duchess... unless we lost our magic senses with our heat.
>>
Next thread will be Sunday. at... lemme get my math right this time. . .

23:00
So that's 20:00 for me.

Wait...

6 days from now?

>>24801516

Shit's murky, and this is so, but the Fae-fire outlined Duchess is the most prominent thing within Angel's vision.
>>
>>24801540

Aye. my apologies. I'll run it earlier if I can.
>>
>>24801518
Great, see you then.

>>24801516
Wait, what if its not molly at all, but rather lady manse used her Ring of Solomon to bind a demon which specializes in killing tooth fairies?
