Currently you are on a fetch quest for the noble “lady” in return for what you hope is useful rewards. Along the way, you “saved” a NPC girl named Marinda and got stuck with a quest from her.
You have just gotten your arm healed by senseless game magic, chain portaled to the mountain, killed some bandit NPCs, saw some dwarven roleplayers and killed some weird tentacle monsters that seemed to be straight out of a hentai.

You sigh as you glance at the mountain you have been trekking up so far, you're more than half way up however you have yet to see the stupid flower you need for the quest. The path so far had been pretty easy due to the dirt road however as the dirt road ended, you were now jumping from rocky cropping to rocky cropping. Along the way up you note what appears to be weird falcon monsters named "Lesser Rakocra, level 12" sometimes hanging onto the mountain of flying close by. They looked just like a falcon besides the fact that these falcons had humanoid legs and arms... oh and they were also as large as a man.

They seem to ignore you as you make your way up however you decide to
>Ignore them and keep climbing up whilst looking for the flower
>Exp for the exp god, Loot for the loot god
>Try and communicate, they look "sorta" humanoid?
>write in

QM might be slightly out of practice for not running for awhile, should be fine though

glad to see I didn't lose everyone.
It's people like you guys that make me keep running even with all the hate from cutie G and general lack of players.
Guess I'll give a bit longer for a tiebreaker before rolling 1d2 and writing.

>>35005147
Never mind, tie breaker has come, thank you.
Writing ignoring and climbing.

>>35004955
Good to have you QM I was worried this might be dead.

>>35005155
I am here too! I'll probably not stick around for long though, since it's nighttime here. I usually read the archives but maybe I could join in the morning.

For how long are you planning to stay today?

>>35005185
You decide that fuck the possibility of dieing, you've had too many close calls recently and all. Ignoring the monsters completely, you climb up the mountain whilst doing your best to ignore all the flying pieces of exp and loot. You stay on the lookout for that fucking flower however besides a few weeds, you find nothing along the way.
After what seemed like hours, you have arrived at what appears to be a small cave opening along the mountain, maybe the flower is inside? The cave appears pitch black to you without you being able to note anything inside.
You do note however that you are nearly at the top of the mountain and if this is going to follow game logic than the flower is probably at the very top.
Of course there is no guarantee for either so maybe you should rest a bit at and log off searching google or ask one of your friends (okay one friend with two accounts but hey...) about the flower?

You decide that the best choice is to
>Climb all the way to the top, fuck the cave
>Enter the cave, the mountain top can wait
>Log off and google (not like anything could happen whilst you're logged off right?)
>Phone a friend (although that bastard will probably make you pay or trade or something)
>Write in

>>35005285
All day if possible.
I finally have a day without any interruption so probs 12+ hours.
If no players than I'll end when players stop.

>>35005378

>>35005424
>>35005462
Since you have no carryable light source, guess you're climbing all the way to the top.
Guess phoning friend can be combined unless anyone has any major problems?
Writing.

>>35005539
or not, nevermind.
its tied now.

Don't worry too much of getting your way, you can always come back anyhow (provided you don't get distracted by butterflies or something)

>Climb all the way to the top, fuck the cave

do we got a torch? no fuck the cave

>>35005666
oh shit time for do or die rolls again.

>>35005378
lemme guess, when we log off, crazy lady will have emailed us and is still looking for us.

good to be back. I think. not enough sleep, damnit.

>>35005666
You decide that since you don’t have a source of light, are 99% sure that fucking quest fetch items are at the top of the mountain and also that you may be slightly slightly scared of entering a pitch dark abyss cavity that you will be climbing all the way to the top. Fuck that cave, if worse scenario being that the flower somehow is growing inside, you can always come back later.

The rational subconscious part of your mind argues that you have a much higher levelled player that you could grill for information or the fact that you can always google shit like this however that’s promptly ignored by the more impulsive part of your brain… which is basically all of it.

Using your Olympic athlete level agility, you begin a strange mixture of jumping and climbing up the mountain as suddenly a system prompt randomly pops out.

Please roll 1d100 to not di- oh wait, the QM passed his perception roll, guess we’re focused?

Luckily, you manage to steady yourself on a small rock cropping and whilst hanging one handed, you pull the system prompt more clearly in front of you

>Congraluations you piece of trash newb, you have finally reached an area outside of the starting region, please note that if you had any days remaining on your newbie title that it does not apply in these areas. Creatures outside of the starting area are known to be very hostile. Best of luck to you player and try not to die please?

Yay? Guess you managed to make it past the starting area whatever that means. Your hands swipe the system message away as you once again climb.

1/2

>>35005799
yeah, uhhh guys? A quest you can get as a newbie PROBABLY isn't outside the starting zone.

I love how much the system hates the players.

>>35005835
fuck good point, try the cave?

>>35005799
After a few more tens of minutes of boring mind numbingly boring climbing (man is agility boosted climbing easy), you have finally managed to reach what appears to be a small perfectly flat area which is the top of the mountain.

Why a mountain has a perfectly flat top you can’t even begin to fathom however you forget all about your inquisitiveness as you see what appears to be a group of pure white flowers on the ground surrounding what appears to be an egg in the middle of this area.

You almost feel like shouting in joy that you have finally found the fucking flower before all of a sudden you hear an ear splitting roar.

Roll 1d100 agi to not die instantly.
This one now is serious.
Best of 3.

Fuck I want crits so bad now after you rolled that ;_;
Stealth level too low to matter against what you will be running/dieing from.
Yes you have self raise title equipped. check the pastebin

>>35005975
I considered that as well, but I guess my intuition was wrong

>>35005986
Writing up moderate success by the way.
You nearly got burned to about 20 health however you just made the agi check needed for moderate success which is "mostly" a miss and a dodge.

>>35005986
Are 100 and 1 still auto-succeed/fail, though?

>>35006023
tecnically there's no such thing as auto-succeed, with DCs that go up to the thousands.

critfails are out because we sealed the amulet, and flat modifiers can still work

>>35006018
Whether luck decided to finally give you a break or the luck of the foe was low, you manage to instinctively leap to your side barely dodging a great gouge of fire.
>You have lost 100 health 225/325
>You are suffering from burn, -20 health per (turn) story post

Fuck, you thought you had fucking dodged that you think as you note the fucking burn debuff and the massive lost of health. You glance at where the fire came from and see not too much surprise a fucking red scaled dragon circling the sky around the mountain top

>*Lesser Red Dragon, King of the mountain, level 65*

…fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck. What kind of retarded quest makes a newbie go against a fucking dragon? This quest is fucking retarded.

You barely have much time to think as the red dragon lands with woosh and a explosion of rock and dust before it once again makes an ear-splitting roar.

Well okay than, it seems you had a lot of options here which consisted of

sure why not drink the pot

>>35006397
nah, waste of money. We're not supposed to know how strong it is, anyway.

>>35006486
The quest was based off moonlight sculptor, it's even said quite early on.
Cutie G kept whining DAILY that they wanted an MMO quest so I went fuck it and runned one based on moonlight sculptor.

>>35006559
Alright, I thought this was thread #1 due to the confusing as fuck title.

>>35006591
sorry, I keep forgetting what number I'm up to for the quest.
I'll try and put numbers now anon, sorry.

>>35006617
You know what, fuck the dragon, you’re going to get the flower even if that fucking dragon is blocking your way.
>+5 foolishness, you have unlocked two skill options after reaching 25 in the stat
>+2 courage

You calm your nerves (well as calm as it could be as in you shake slightly less) as you scowl like a particular girl you remember at the massive beast in front of you. The dragon answers with a breath of fire as you narrowly dodge it with a jump and roll.

You barely manage to regain your footing before another breath of fire rushes towards you which you manage to barely dodge… at the cost of your arm. System prompts pop up however the three you note is that

>health 30/325

>Foolish Courage is active

>”Nerd” Rage is active

You grin a smirk at the sudden boost of strength you feel as you rush past the dragon towards the flowers and the egg, maybe you can actually do this with the buf-

Unfortunately a level 11 boosted extremely to approx. level 30-35 levels is still nothing compared to a level 65 boss dragon.

The fire slams into your back as you watch from the corner of your eye, your health dropping to zero. Time seems to slow down as suddenly a prompt pops up

> Unconquerable will is active, you may do one final act before you die

With the flowers in front you, you’re about to reach for them before you note that the dragon egg is there too, maybe you can steal the egg as a fuck you to the dragon? Or maybe you can use the unconquerable will bonus to try and kill the dragon?

Options options and so little time
>Take the flowers
>Take the egg
>Attack the dragon

>>35006767
>Take the flowers

>>35006767
>>35006767
THIS is harsher failure? I thought it was minor success

we still have self-raise.

If we grab the egg first, the aggro MIGHT go away after we die the first time, by which we grab the flowers and probably fail to jump off the mountain.

FINALLY capthca decides to work again

>>35006848
This is higher failure
The DC for being an idiot and trying to take the dragon's baby (in the dragon's eyes at least) was 700.
600 would've been more of a minor success.
I even gave our character every boost he has however he doesn't even get close

>>35006880
yeah, that's what I mean. I can't believe we actually reached the flowers/egg without needing to re-raise

>>35006880
Where is everyone?
Will I need to roll 1d2 or something?
Or should I give 10 more minutes?

>>35006932
When I reveal the truth, you guys will either rage or kill me.
Trust me, this was a higher failure.
Minor success would've got you to the flower alive and let you steal the egg too before dieing.

>>35006767
>Take the egg

>>35006938
Like I said, captcha seemed to crap out on me. Give it a bit more time for the others.

Kekles writing.

>>35007019
No, we will need to do npc girl's quests, after old herblore lady's quests, and we will pick up a quest during each of those. And we will never meet up with sulky glasses-senpai again.

>>35007054
course we will. Just much later.

We'll destroy the last grave without anyone knowing except sulky, recruit sulky and whoever else to kill what's released and be recognized as a "hero"

>>35007042
You decide that fuck this dragon and fuck this quest too. What kind of crazy quest makes a fucking newbie have to get past a damn level 65 dragon?

With an evil smirk, your grab the egg and your fingers dance across the system prompts as you place the dragon egg in your inventory. The fucking dragon may win the war but at least you won the battle… wait maybe that’s wro-

>You have died, as you are above level 10 you lose 1 point in all stats, also-
Yada yada, you ignore the system prompt as another more important system prompt pops up

>Raise self has activated, best of luck with your 10 minutes of life.

You’re currently a half grilled zombie corpse however you manage with what remains of one of your arms to grab onto the white flowers however before you can even check the system prompt for them or place them in your inventory, another breath of fire hits you as your consciousness disappears…
or not.

Seems the self raise spell works even if you’re dust, after 10 minutes of excruciating boredom which is probably what actually being dead feels like, you finally are transported into the pitch black of the death area.

1/2

>>35007197
A system prompt pops up stating that you will be respawned in the same spot after a minimum of 12 hours and that you have lost a level, 1 in all stats permanently and that you have lost a random allotment of items.
Joy...
With a half-sigh and cry at the fact that you have lost permanent stats, your fingers pull open the system prompt as you log out. With a flash of light...

You are greeted by your same old shitty and messy room, ugh... you feel horrible. Probably because you've had no real food besides the gruel for ages...
Wearily you struggle up as you decide that since you have 12 hours to burn you should spend the time

>Internet research (write in about what)
>Getting some real food from a restaurant

We may have lost the flower, and the egg. But if we haven't its a good idea to learn more about it.

>>35007297
>>Maybe exercising a little? You're sure you can do 1-2 pushups...maybe?

>>35007322
Internet research about flower quest and dragon egg will take about 4 hours total. (3 for egg, 1 for flower quest)

Emailing friend should take no time at all. Don't really know what you want to say though?
>>35007319
>>35007414
>>35007377
Than shopping for food, failing it completely and dieing from food poisoning... okay not that bad but failing cooking before pushups and jogging to a restaurant for food.
Afterwards shower. No wiping down VR capsule since we are not exactly a "neat" person.

That's probably about 8-9 hours down, guess you can sleep for about 3 hours.

Can I get 3d100 (best of 3 as always)
First is for information gathering, second is for seeing how badly you cook and third is for any random events when going towards the restaurant.

Writing, might take a bit long as you guys wanted ALOT of things.

>>35007568
there's still hope for learning cooking ingame! not really

Although if we're this bad at cooking, how the hell are we going to learn potions?

>>35007568
You decide that the best way to burn some time is to research your newest spoil… A MOTHER FUCKING DRAGON EGG. You are pretty sure that the egg must be worth at least a decent amount on an auction since it gives birth to a fucking level 65 beast. You struggle with a crawl to your out of date computer as after a long boot up, you begin trawling the internet in the hopes of finding useful information.

Whether it was lucky or just because “anonymous” is nice, you manage to find the information you need quite quickly on image boards. It seemed that a dragon egg was extremely rare as most dragons actually hatch quite quickly (around 1 week according to the internet). Apparently once a dragon has hatched, it’s basically another monster to kill (although one namefag “MonsterMaster” apparently espouses that young monsters can be tamed with the “monster tamer” class which you’ve never heard off) HOWEVER if you manage to get a dragon egg and hatch it by yourself MAKING SURE that the newborn dragon sees you as the first thing than it will recognise you as its mother.

Dragons apparently make for great pets and with dedication, you can apparently unlock the hidden class “dragon rider” although most seem to ridicule those who said this. It also seems that because of this rumour, dragon eggs are in EXTREMELY HIGH demand on online auction sites going for around 50 gold ($5000 converted).

You grin at this and pray to every god you can name that the items you lost from death did not include the dragon egg.

1/?

>>35007713
Next you begin asking the kind anons about the flower quest however whether because this was a less hot topic or because the anons were tired of spoonfeeding, you were met with what you could luckily perceive as mostly troll answers.
Searching elsewhere on various sites, you finally manage to find with a bit of effort on a forum post about the mountain rose.

>The mountain rose grows on mountains (master of the obvious there)

>The mountain rose grows close to dirt pathways for some reason

>The mountain rose is BRIGHT RED (ehhhhh… well you guess that does make some sense since it is a mountain ROSE… but wait, the flowers at the mountain top was white. Don’t tell me that means what you think it means.)

>The mountain rose sometimes can camouflage itself into the background if animals draw near making it near impossible to see at night

You also found out that mountain rose is a part of a lot of potions however since you can’t make potions yet, you mostly ignore this.

Finishing your research you decide that since you're at your computer you might as well send an email to your friend Oliver and also one to the crazy bitch since you're here anyways. You tell them of your location and ask if they wish to join your party. Of course, it might be awhile before they respond although Oliver does have you on his friendlist so he may message you ingame

>>35007929
To be fair atleast we get a dragon egg out of it.

>>35007929
After finishing your information gathering, you give a yawn and a stretch as you realise just how fatigued you are. It’s hard to note sometimes how tired you are when in game however now that you’re in real life, its easy to note your tiredness. Deciding you need something to do to keep you awake, you throw on your best looking somewhat clean clothes (which still look decidedly horrible) as you begin struggling along to the local shopping center. Fuck, its at times like these that you absolutely hate the sun. After a short walk, you manage to reach the shopping centre, you’re about to start walking towards the microwave meals however you decide that now is as good time as any to train your cooking skills into becoming a master chef.

You buy some eggs, sausages and beans making sure that they are all home brand and the cheapest possible. You also happily ignore the warnings on the food against using cloned food. Cheapness is a way of life after all.
You trek the harsh and terrible journey home though the glaring evil sun before finally being able to reach your humble and dark room. Looking up an internet recipe, you boil sausages, cook eggs and beans together in an amateur mess on a pan… is what you tried to do.

The sausages turn out pitch black whilst the eggs get stuck to the pan.
The following food tasting is censored for your sanity.

After a bit of vomiting, you decide that you will probably need a slight teeny bit more practice at cooking. For now however you once again exit the house into the glaring sun as you make your way to the local delicacy restaurant… a McDonalds. Along the way, you manage pass what appears to be a few hoodlums smoking in a alley however whether due to luck or the fact it’s the middle of the day, you are mostly ignored.

>>35007929
This happened to me in world of warcraft years ago. There's a level 60 elite dragon boss on top of a mountain in the middle of a low level zone. I got lost in the zone when I knew nothing about this game and wandered into the dragon area.

>>35008204
After a delightful meal fit for a king (LARGE burger meal), you once again crawl back to the safe haven that is your home. You’re about to let sleep greet you however you decide to jog and do some pushups beforehand to ensure that you’re swole… well you TRIED to jog and you TRIED to do pushups… At the very least, you didn’t hurt yourself.

After a short while of vomiting and huffing and puffing. You are finally ready for some good old shut eye. Giving yourself what you believe a good amount of sleep (3 hours), you awaken to the blaring alarm you had set beforehand.

You quickly enter the VR machine making sure to waste no time at all before the familiar flash of white light comes and you are respawned...
RIGHT ON TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN FACING THE RED DRAGON. Oh yeah... you respawn at the same point if you don't have a church/town respawn point allocated.

You're about to start running for your life before a voice booms out within your mind

Slowly back away toward the edge of the Mountain. If we Decline I want it to be followed by us stepping off the edge.

Also, I want a basket of those flowers.

Only with a trade. The flowers for the quest. Give a description of the flower. If it's not here in 4 hours, we'll leave.

immediately start the two hour portal-making

>>35008318
>>35008334
Seems to be asking for more information and requesting at least 200 gold + flowers + slowly stepping towards the edge of the mountain.
Starting a portal will probably need to wait until we've actually accepted.

>>35008416
Righto

>>35008416
That works for me

>>35008416
Oh and quick point. Wait for an offer, BEFORE we say what we want. No getting fucked over by the dragon actually being fine with giving us billions of gold or some amazing weapon or magic item and then realizing we are content with barely anything of value.

>>35008516
this

>>35008516
that is a little foolhardy. We're on icy footing as it is, and giving the other side the initiative is being dangerously greedy. If it's a matter of numbers, there's a reason I didn't mention 200+ gold.

>>35008416
Hmm... a dragon is probably rich right? Fuck 50 gold, you can possibly get 200 or even more from this dragon compared to auctioning online. You almost feel sympathy for the mother before realizing that she DID burn you to death...well that and the possibility of gold.

"You said you will make it worth my while? How much is worth my while? I can tell you at least this, if you want your egg back I want at least 200 gold and..." you pause for dramatic effect on the important part
"Yes?" the dragon questions just as you wanted

You smirk as you reply "...And I want some fucking flowers, these white flowers right here and the flower called mountain rose. If you don't give me even one of those than no deal lady"

"hahahahahahahahaahahah" laughs the dragon as small puffs of smoke and flame come from the dragons nose

"H-hey this isn't funny" you manage to stutter as the dragon glares at you. You decide that now is a good chance to start inching backwards towards the edge of the mountain cliff.

"You will take whatever I give you greedy mortal. You will either accept and take what I give you, no questions asked or I shall burn you a thousand times a thousand. I sense no tether binding you so each time you shall be reborn here and each time shall you be burned until the egg IS MINE" the final words are filled with a roar of fire towards the sky.

Man, whoever made this monster clearly went all out.

You decide to
>Accept her terms
>Accept but try to negotiate (write in how or roll decided)
>Decline and jump
>Write in

>>35008596
>>Accept but try to negotiate (write in how or roll decided)
we see what the thing wants to give us then negotiate based on that

>>35008596
>Accept but try to negotiate (write in how or roll decided)

If it doesn't work we jump

>>35008596
>Negotiate
And if your breath cooks your child? Or if I "accidentally" smash the egg while trying to run? Maybe YOU should think a little more carefully.

>>35008596
Attempt to negotiate. I want to see what she will give us.

I don't want to accept without having some idea of what we are going to get. As it is we can always jump if negotiations don't go our way.

>>35008596
>>Accept her terms

Honestly, just take the dragon swag. It's probably better Than 20 since this a a MLS quest.

Is just jumping off the mountain due to unfavorable negotiation still a possibility?

>>35008905
yeah i want that fucking egg fuck this dragon

>>35008824
"So what exactly will you give me anyways?" you ask however the response is a fire ball that makes the ground near your feet burn to molten rock.

"Have you not learned greedy mortal? You shall take whatever you are given, no questions. You should be lucky I'm talking with you instead of just burning your worthless hide until I get back my child" the dragon roars as you edge ever closer to the edge of the mountain. You decide to try one last time to "negotiate" with the dragon as you call out

"Are you not scared that your breath will cook your child?" you ask in the vain hope however...
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, foolish greedy worm, you really think a dragons egg can be burned? You insult my race you worthless foolish greedy worm"

Jeez what's with all the prefixes, is that the way the game makes the AI identify you or something? Because if it is... well... you are clearly not liked... to say the least.

"Wait, what about the fact that I might 'accidentall-" you don't even finish as the glare of death sent your way by the dragon tell you exactly the result of finishing this sentence of even the "possibility" of the dragon egg being hurt.

Looks like you must (no option to negotiate, either flat out accept or decline now since you've really really pissed of the dragon.)

You goddamned tease.

>>35009089
u wot m8

>>35009089
Sorry about that, OP. It just isn't to be.

>>35009089
It keeps happening.

>>35009089
I mean, I could suggest pulling the egg out and threatening to jump while holding it and reinserting it into inventory while we fall, but what good will that, do?

>>35009089
welp shit, looks like we have lost that then, for curiosities sake, how likely did you think it was that we would accept?

>>35009089
WAIT WHAT?!
Well taking that into mind... I would change to Accept.

Unlikely you'd accept that though

>>35009089
"It seems I have no choice but to accept your offer mighty dragon" you say hanging your head down and appearing to access your bag.

The dragon grins a toothy grin however your smirk when you leap backwards is without a doubt better. The dragon simply stares in surpise as you fall though the air backwards whilst laughing manically.
+1 savagery
the system prompt pops out however you hardly notice as you start flying through the sk- crunch the ground happily ruins your flying as your bones smash into it.
Fuck, that probably would've been enough damage to cause shock however luckily there is no pain in this game.
Glancing around, you note that you landed on the dirt path and that nearly all your limbs are in different states of broken broken and broken... well at least you were alive?

>>35009131
I thought you were sure to accept before you just had to SHOW EXACTLY WHAT THE DRAGONS HATE

Short of smashing the egg, you had literally pushed all her buttons.

no courage for jumping off a cliff?

Shouldn't have made the dragon a dick then, people hate arrogant people lording over them.

>>35009204
Well you can't really move much however you note that you can sorta move your right arm a bit. Guess you're going to be here for awhile until someone (hopefully not the dragon) comes.

In the meantime you decide to check your character and items.

I'm just sad now, cus I actually do want the class.

It's not about whether we can, but admitting that we were gigantic idiotic assholes.

>>35009379
so what are those foolish skils?

>>35009261
She would've at least been somewhat polite however the stuff people said literally pushed her into full human hating mode.
I don't even know how people pushed so many of her buttons, only button not pushed was destroying life for no reason and that was ainly because you guys didnt get a chance for it.

>>35009379
Oh shit I forgot we arent supposed to leave the girl

>>35009418
to be fair, if we hadn't mentioned the 200+ gold, her curiosity might have been peaked for a human asking for FLOWERS in exchange for an egg.

>>35009418
Man i thought that dragons were rich fucks and would be willing to give a little shit amount of gold, the flowers thing was a bit far though

>>35009379
You note the stat drops as you promise to get every fucking stat back if possible as well as revenge on that damn dragon. You also note that in the skill screen you have a new prompt
Skills:
For reaching 25 foolishness you may choose between skills
Active: Illogical logic
or
Passive: Idiot savant
Please choose carefully as once chosen cannot be changed.

You decide to choose
>Illogical logic
>Idiot savant
>Log out and internet a bit (not like theres a dragon possibly coming after you or anything)

>Illogical logic
We NEED this, because of the way quest votes work.

>>35009471
>>35009474
She was possible class mentor so I gave her an actual character.
Normal dragons will probably fit into the trope of greedy hoarders.

>>35009490
>>Idiot savant
haha foolishness ho

>>35009490
Active: Illogical logic

>>35009521
maybe if you gave her a name instead of "lesser dragon"

>>35009490
>Idiot savant

>>35009521

Anyway we could actually turn it around? You peaked my damn interest with that class dammit!

>>35009490
>>Write in
Ignore the prompt for now, then get some of our healing items out and use em, get back to town and then go google it

>>35009521
That was a bad idea, It should have been more distinguished from a normal dragon, ie {Actual Name} instead of {Lesser Dragon}

>>35009554
I doubt we can now, besides who can say they managed to steal a dragons egg with even harming the dragon as it tried to murderise us

>>35009544
OOC: She had one, you cannot view names of monsters.
Doesn't matter anyways, she was a pretty minor character I wasn't even sure we were going to meet

>>35009490
>>Illogical logic!!!
because

>Idiot savant seams like it would give penitles

>>35009584
Wait really? we cant see the names of monsters?

>>35009633
So would it be possible/will you give us a chance to unpiss off this one?

>>35009668
oh yeah, that's easy. Just raise the kid well, treat it as a friend/ally more than a pet/tool, and teach it to be wise.

>>35009701
You know, easy for a SANE, INTELLIGENT person NOT controlled by /tg/

>>35009668
Depends on players I guess.
I'm pretty lax with stuff like this however I get a feeling that players will just piss her off again.
That and the fact that she's going to be trying to kill you every time you meet.

>>35009661
The rational part of your subconscious screams to wait and choose a skill after googling it back at the village however the impulsive side as usual wins out as your fingers dash across the system prompt choosing illogical logic.
>You have gained active skill illogical logic (Beginner): Sometimes you just need to view things from a different angle. Once per "death" you may choose to use your foolishness instead of your intelligence for a roll. (yes this means super overpowered one shot spell if you raise your foolishness super high which is quite easy with the way you play)

You grin at the fact you have gained another skill. Other people might be insulted by the kind of names your skills have however you recognise that each and every one of them are essential to your character and that every minor ability plays its part.

1/?

>>35009779
see, told you /tg/ needs this

>>35009779
With now nothing to do, you are quite bored and just a slightly slightly afraid of the dragon that is probably going to find you sooner or later. In a situation like this you do what you do best, you decide to

Writing up portalling all the way back to home town.

>>35009928

Could we set up a dead man's switch or something that would destroy the egg if we are killed? Then maybe we could see about a transfer without the danger of being fried.

>>35009928
did we get that dam flower first? find the flower first why wasn't that the option?

I think the first thing we do when we get to town, before even trying to get healed, is log out and try to sell the egg. Then spend 5 months foolishly grinding out portals 19 hours a day.

Alright, the best plan I have for getting on the dragon's good side:

>Find some way to make a trap/barrier that stalls the dragon for 5 minutes
>Leak info/bait dragon
>Pretend we don't know the dragon is coming
>Use Illogical Logic to teach the dragon whelp in an impressive manner. blackboard, chalkboard, alchemy/herb training, magic, everything.
>Impress dragon with actual intelligence and "care" for the dragon

>>35010001
We could always just make a portal big enough for the dragon to enter and let her raze terror on the town.

>>35009928
You decide that since you are a COMPLETELY sane and normal person, that you will choose the logical and rational option of portalling yourself out of here.
>+1 Wisdom
Comes the system prompt which clearly agrees with you. You're scared of the possibility of the dragon finding you however unfortunately it seems the dragon is having a bit of trouble dice related trouble to be precise

You're about to leave however it seems that the dice of the QM ha a different opinion as you see what appears to be a red flower a few feet away from you. Thanking a metric ton of gods which you only believe in at times like these, you crawl like the cripple you are to the flower before plucking it.
>You have gained mountain flower
Final fucking ly you internally swear as you begin the portal.
The portaling goes off without a hitch as you complete it after 2 hours.

You crawl though the portal as fast as a cripple with only one arm can before promptly closing the portal behind you and starting a portal. This process repeats itself for 2 days (Yep you've gotten faster at travelling with them) before you finally arrive at the gates of the newbie town of Yarun.

Somewhere in the back of your impulsive mind, you remember you have two girls waiting for you. This however is happily ignored by the rest of the mind.

>>35010070
It's okay. We can just spaz to crazy girl about meeting a dragon, and that it was awesome and we are horribly crippled ingame.

>Somewhere in the back of your impulsive mind, you remember you have two girls waiting for you. This however is happily ignored by the rest of the mind.

Oh shit

>>35010070
The guards give you a weird glance as you begin your slow crawl within the town towards the herblore old lady.
One of the guards offers to "carry this beautiful lady" however you decline whilst gritting your teeth. Seriously why is it that when you are playing the guy that more people treat you as a girl than when you were actually playing as a girl.

After awhile of crawling and ignoring the various stares of people you manage to reach the old lady's hut. You're about to enter before you realise that you are facing the biggest problem you have in awhile...

Her hut has some stairs.

After grumbling and quite a bit of effort, you finally manage to push open the door noting that the place smells a bit weird... not as bad as your room but really weird. dem perception failures on pointless things

You look around for the old herblore elderly lady however it appears the place is empty of people... nothing but pots and plants here. Wait a minute, wheres that scowl grill you question yourself however you give up after a bit. Probably went out or something.

It seems you've got a bit of time to wait before the old lady comes back from whatever errand she left for
You decide to
>Sleep some here
>Fuck waiting, crawl to one of the churches (I can specify which churches there are if you want)
>Snoop around a bit whilst you wait
>Log off and do something whilst you wait

>>35010118

>>35010256

Whatever church is closest to the flower quest turn-in. Also fetch the girl so we get some stats back, might make crawling easier.

You decide that fuck anymore waiting or even bothering to heal yourself. You are fucking going to turn in this fucking quest right at this moment. THIS VERY MOMENT WHEN YOU ARE CRIPPLED.
>+3 foolishness

You begin your "valiant and courageous" crawl towards the noble area as whispers abound of your courageous act "is that girl retarded? She literally just crawled past the church" "Dude, I think that's a guy. No girl would do something that disgraceful" "Lol look at this noob, bet he doesnt even know about churches". You grin to yourself knowing the great rumours that abound of your courage as over the course of several hours, you finally arrive in front of the noble area gate.

The guards here give you a mute stare before they bow slightly and open the gates welcoming your great return from the quest. "Look look the nobles are doing charity for the disabled"

1/2

>>35010529
With a self satisfying smirk, you crawl the rest of the way to the magnanimous over-the-top palace of the lady. You are greeted by the blank stare of a maid who whistles twice.
Instantly several large black dogs are summoned with nametags of "Cutie" "Woofie" and what not whilst their name above their heads show
"Black hellhound level 35"

You're about to start crawling away as fast as a crippled person can however luckily the lady comes to your aid with her familiar drawllllll.
"nooononoooooooooo, stoooopppp the-" you decide to once again 'filter' her words into normal human language
"-resa, he's a darling guest of this house"

The maid stares at you for a second before she curtsies to the lady and leaves you... but not before whistling again.

After a few minutes of being half carried and half dragged by a bunch of hellhounds, you once again arrive in the familiar room of the lady where you had previously died over 40 times.

"Well then darling, I hope you have good news for me? But that aside, let's get a darling like you healed up before anything else" A snap of the fingers and a system prompt pops up which you ignore as you focus on the more important aspect, you can finally fucking move again.

You give a glance towards your health and status and note that everything's back to normal.

So... how do you report this oh courageous warrior? (possibility of more favour or less)

We didn't kill them for no reason. They were red because they helped the girl escaped and probably attacked some guards or something. Just bring up the issue of a noble girl who ran away from home.

>>35010864
how much longer you planning on running?

>>35010864
You decide that it's best not play around with NPCs that probably have much higher charisma and what not than you. Sometimes its best to tell the untarnished truth, nothing more, nothing less.

So you begin your tale, of how you accidentally killed a girls friend and got stuck with her, of how you saved a merchant from a red boar and gaining him as a friend, of fighting bandits, of fighting mountain spirits, pissing of a dragon and finally of stealing a dragon's egg and
"... of course, how could I forget my quest" you say with a smile as with a flourish in your most gentlemanly style produce the red mountain flower.

After your tale the lady simply stares at you
"I sense no falsehoods from you darling yet this tale beggars belief. The impossibilities you talk off... And without even boasting... You have without a doubt succeeded my quest darling. I commend your efforts"
>You have completed A lady's quest
>You have currently got 1150 favour
>You have currently free access without stigma in the noble area (from the NPC at least, Vitria does not assure any behaviour from players. Please direct all legal issues against them correctly and not us

>You have received the right to a "gift" from the lady

"Well darling, what do you wish to choose? I can offer you magical eyes, strengthening of the body or even a piece of equipment from my personal armory. Of course, to make it interesting darling, the gift will always be random"

I can run as long as players want.
If people want to stop than I'm happy to stop anytime.
Of course next runtime will probably have to be next weekend as only on weekends am I free.

>>35011074
>Random magical item
Ask if you can trade favor for a quarterstaff.

>>35011074

>Random magic eye (guaranteed to be beneficial)

It may not be from a demon empress but magic is Magix I guess.

>>35011124
You already have a quarterstaff, you bought an average one from the general store awhile ago.

>>35011074
I say we get the magic eye. The mutation is only a 'strengthening' of body with can be scales or claws, nothing extra like wings.

>>35011074
>Random magic eye (guaranteed to be beneficial)
Maybe fucking perception boost? That'd be nice.


>>35011087
Good to know. And how late will you be running tonight?

DO IT MOTHERFUCKER

Guys, we really need this. It's too late to do anything else and we've fucked up too many times.

>>35011170
This is a MLS quest.
Classes fall from the fucking sky.

>>35011164
I've once DMed online for 40 hours straight however I probably can't go that long for a quest.
I'd say probably ending at maximum even with continued player interest in another 5-6 hours.

Can I get a 1d6 roll to see what type of eye we get.
First roller get's it I guess.

Rolled 6 (1d6)

>>35011241

>>35011249
Eye of foresight?
Awww, wanted the eye of insight or the eye of shared knowledge.
Oh well, writing.
Guess I will rip off mushoku tensei in how the eye works.

>>35011274

>eye of shared knowledge

How's that supposed to work?

>>35011274
You decide that you need to choose the gift that will best improve your gaming abilities for late game...it's totally not because you're a weeabo and want a magic eye like your animu. You're almost tempted by the greed of a magical item or the possible power up by the random mutation however the childish want of a magic eye wins out as you select your answer on the system prompt.
The lady grins at you as she takes out a dice throwing it upon the table, a few seconds later, a 6 reveals itself as the lady simply points at your eyes whilst childishly chanting "eenie meenie minne moe" before deciding upon your left eye and...suddenly
*stab*
fuck, what the actual fuck, did that bitch just randomly stab you in the ey-
After a moment however the system prompt that pops out however allays any fears you have
>You have gained active magic-physical attribute: left eye of foresight beginner (level 1 0%): By spending 200 mana, you can temporarily view what moves the enemy intends to use for one QM post. Will not work against skilled opponents or for long encounters.

Be able to see from the eyes of anyone you can see or blood bonded with, be able to access the knowledge of NPCs that accept your blood. Basically allows easy skill/quest access whilst also being great for information gathering and shit.

The lady pulls out her finger from your eye dripping blood and eye goo as you... don't really feel any different. The hell?
You're about to say something however the lady simply smiles at you whilst pulling out a hand mirror she had hidden in god-knows where. You note that your eye had changed. It now had a fucking clock in it.
What the flying fuck?
Oh well... guess fantasy games are just like that you guess?
Well no matter, what matters is that you've got an awesome new ability even if the mana cost might be SLIGHTLY intensive for the current you.

The lady begins explaining all about the eye of foresight in game setting lore terms however the only thing you've managed to gleam is that the eye of foresight is unlike other magic in that it can be activated in an instant just by wanting it to. No casting or menu clicking required

You spend a few more moments enjoying the scenery of the room whilst ignoring the rest of the lady's talk as she finally finishes up and you thank her.

>Any last things to do with the lady before leaving back into town?

>>35011560
>Just head back

>>35011560
Ask about resolving the issue of the runaway girl. Like getting her father to allow her to at least 'adventure' for a period of time.

>>35011560
Ask about the amulet, her recommendations for getting a class, and who is allied with her.

>>35011560
Use favour for some basic gear

>>35011597
OOC: That would cost favor if you want her to tell you all she knows about the family and even more if you want her to convince the family to let their only daughter adventure

>>35011600
Asking about the amulet is fine, recommendations for getting a class is fine however she's quite biased towards magic being a magic user herself

So asking about the amulet and recommendations for a class are assured.
What about the scowling girl Marinda
>Ask for information (low favor cost, slightly suspicious)
>Ask for favor (high favor cost, she'll get "misunderstandings")
>Nah fuck that

>>35011666
>666
satan confirms
joking aside, would probably cost less than 100 if you're getting basic of the basicest.

>>35011677
Writing up asking about amulet and getting recommendation for a class and than leaving.

>>35011677
>>Ask for favor (high favor cost, she'll get "misunderstandings")

Always go big.

>>35011754

Literaly two seconds. Cut me some slack, will ya?

>>35011752
You decide that since the lady's a fucking powerful mage that it would best to get some advice from her whilst you're here. Plus what better way to get information than from NPCs, its certainly better than the image boards, forums and pay to view wiki shit you have to go though on the internet just to get information about this game.

"Hey, just before I leave and all. What do you suggest I do as a profession?" You ask in the hopes that she can provide some direction. You've played quite long at this game and you have yet to even get a profession, you blame the fact that this game has too many classes too choose from and not enough direction however the small part of your brain that isn't overloaded with ADHD reminds you that most of this was your own fault.

That aside the lady's eyes turn red as she responds with...

"Hmmm, your stats seem all over the place and whilst your skills are useful, they don't seem to be particularly slanted one way or another besides that weird "illogical logic" skill. My recommendation to you darling would be to become a spellsword. You have a good mixture of intelligence with brute physical force so a mixed class such as spellsword would be best. Of course a teacher for becoming a spellsword is quite hard but I'd be happy to help one as interesting as you get a coach... provided you do another small quest for me that is."

Hmm, interesting. Talking of quests, that reminds you about your mcguffin amulet that you're STILL stuck with. Maybe she can help with that?

1/2

>>35011792
>>35011754
Oh, guess I missed it, will make asking for favor part of it too I guess after amulet.

>>35011943
Hey QM is changing or having more than class possible? We have a dragon egg afterall and if we raise it we can become a dragon rider right? so can we ask the lady about that as well

>>35011924
"Also, umm I've had this amulet since 'forever', anything you can do or know about it?" You ask hopefully whilst revealing your amulet stuck around your neck. Instantly the lady looks surprised as after a few moments she begins laughing as her shock turns into giggles.

"So that's why you were so interesting. You've got her mark on you darling. The mark of the true goddess that governs all. She is known as...
The dice goddess of random luck Forturia"
...what kind of fucking name is that?
She continues with a long winded explanation of the goddesses role which you barely can manage to follow. What you do manage to figure out however is that this god is a royal bitch yet also a kind gentle woman.

She's literally a god of random chaotic contradictions and that those who have her mark are known to be blessed either by really bad luck or really good luck.
2/3
Shit family brb

>>35012056
Not only that, it was said that in return for all this bad luck those cursed, sometimes extremely powerful good luck occurs whilst those blessed sometimes have extremely powerful bad luck.
She also seems to complain that you had the amulet sealed and that it was a waste of the POSSIBILITIES of Forturia.

She offers to break the seal however you respectfully decline. She seems somewhat saddened by this however she offers you a different alternative,
if you can manage to find an blessed amulet of the opposing element of extremely good luck and manage to take it.

You can combine the two amulets to an amulet that balances out with the active power to sometimes bring extreme good luck... in return for occasional extreme bad luck. When you're about to accept her quest however the system prompt accept screen denies your push of the finger with a simple message

>Cannot accept new quest under effect of escort debuff, try again later

damnit, looks like you're going to need that damn girl which reminds you, it's probably best that you get a powerful noble like the lady to stop any issues with the girl's family. It may cost you a bit of favor now however the long term benefits of not having any problems with a noble along with the ability to be smug to the girl is more than worth it. The system prompt pops up asking if you wish to use 300 favor to do this which you, with a small smirk clicks accept.

You finish with some pleasantries before you remember that you've still got basically zero gear. Even at level 12 so you request some basic
>Light leather equipment
>Wizards equipment (think robe and hat and shit)
>Medium armour
>Heavy plate armour
>Write in

QM will be posting slower since family is over, sorry thought I could run a session without interruption however that is clearly not the case

>>35012321
>Wizards equipment (think robe and hat and shit)
probably best especially since she prefers magic.

Also can we ask her about Dragon Rider class?

>>35012321
>Light leather equipment
We need mobility and armor.

>>35012368
she knows nothing about the class, would be pretty pointless.
She has heard rumours however that's about it and the rumours don't even have a sliver of truth in them unlike most rumours

>>35012321
Unseal the amulet. We need to train the BAD LUCK skills.

>Half Light, Half Wizard
...what? she said spellsword.

Still voting to sell one Xpot for gold and another for cash, so that we can die more often without constantly fearing that we lose those

...we already lost one, didn't we?

>>35012321
>>Light leather equipment

>>35012321
>>Light leather equipment

get some good rope so we can work roping, and other cool cowboy stuff.

>>35012412
THAT REMINDS ME
Almost forgot to mention what you've lost
You've lost 130 bronze (this is actually quite alot for someone at your level)
Your extra clock of camouflage (no real lose there)
Your cool yet pointless shades
Your silent yew bow
Your deer fur

You do not know how fucking hard it was for rolling this. I never want to make an inventory roll again. I will probably fake it from now on

>>35012321
btw, if noble girl asks for the stuff back even after we helped her, we can force her to owe us favor

>>35012380
>>35012416
>>35012457
Light leather wins it.
Writing
Think I will end it in 1-2 hours.
Just want to at least get to a cliffhanger or a good stopping point

>>35012474
Nooooo. That bow was a big loss. Could of been real useless when we do ambushes or some combat portal tricks.

>>35012508
I meant useful......

>>35012508
considering how hard it is to get used to multiple perspectives, homing bow is better for now.

>>35012321
>>Wizards equipment

>>35012505
>>35012562
Damn.

>>35012474
I just realized: we didn't drop any stolen stuff. Dang.

>>35012505
okay, sorry for wait. Family sucks balls for QMing.

You decide that the best choice in a situation like this is to go for the light leather armour. Sure you are aiming to become a mage however what you need is gear for the you right now and the you right now relies mostly on physical combat. After making your decision, a tailor is instantly summoned and within 5 minutes of when you asked, you are getting your measurements. Seems "basic" means something different to the lady than it does to you
>You have lost 100 favor
>You have gained high quality cattle studded hide leather helmet
>You have gained high quality cattle studded hide leather boots
>You have gained high quality cattle studded hide leather gloves
>You have gained high quality cattle studded hide leather body armour
>You have gained high quality cattle studded hide leather skirt

You happily equip all your new equipment with a smile. You note that the lady looks VERY satisfied with you wearing the equipment for god knows what reason.
>You are equipping a full matching set, additional bonus of +5 agi and +3 end.

You thank the lady with a smile as you finally leave the her elegant palace (you will admit the place is actually pretty good...). This time around no maid whistles for the hellhounds.

It is now late evening

You decide to
>Look for girl (write in where or roll for it)

Writing up looking for girl at old lady's hut and asking people near there.
Sorry for slow speed.

>>35012970
no yes? does it matter?

>>35012970
You decide to search for that fucking scowling girl where you remember last seeing her... at the old lady's hut. After a short walk (funny how fast having working legs are), you reach the hut and once again the smell hits you. Jeez, did they really have to get EVERY aspect of reality in these VR ga-
your train of thought ends as soon as you open the door, body lying there on a random desk is the old lady. It doesn't take a genius to realise she's... probably just unconscious right? r-right?
You cautiously walk over to the old lady a you place your head on her bosom... to hear her heartbeat. Jeez, you didn't have THOSE kind of fetishes.
No heartbeat greets your ears.

>Quest failed: An old granny’s love for her son.

Damn, in a situation like this you really want to cry... YOU LOST FUCKING EXPERIENCE AND POSSIBLE REWARDS DAMNIT. Ugh, you walk around the plant filled hut in the hope of finding any kind of clue to why she died however you don't note anything.

Well, you've found a dead old lady but still no fucking scowling grill. With a inward sigh, you exit the hut and
>inform one of the guards about the old lady before continuing to look for grill
>go back and snoop the hut a bit
>go back and steal some shit
>Write in

>>35013179
>>go back and steal some shit

>>35013358
>>35013461
Family making it really hard to go on QMing.
I guess I'll put my QM vote to informing the guards.
My vote is worth absolute shit?
Well writing anyways.

>>35013544
You decide to finish up here and get back to the important task of finding that damn grill.
You make one final glance back to the elderly lady before sighing and searching around her hut for a blanket, you find one in her small bedroom. The blanket has patterns of foliage on it, how fitting? You throw the blanket over the corpse as you walk out and inform a nearby guard.

Luckily this world has the red/yellow system so you are under no suspicion for causing the death. The guards attribute the death to simple old age, you'd disagree and what not but you're currently busy trying to find a grill.

Asking around locally, it seems that quite a few people remember the girl... 4 days ago. It seemed that the girl had awoken in a fuss before swearing about revenge on the "runner". When you ask for where did she run off to, you get answers ranging from "don't know buddy" to "why the hell would I know?".

Great to see the usefulness of the NPCs in this game.

Roll 1d100 int check, best of 3. You can also try to guess where she is (its pretty obvious).

Rolled 47 (1d100)

>>35013622
