Old thread >>36856863

You watch and wait, you’ve seen the gifted before, you think you can figure out what his powers are, most of them don’t bother to hide the *gifts* they are given. He walks past your hiding place, seemingly unaware, until he spins and heads in your direction, you scramble backwards, but to no avail.

The gifted lashes out and grabs you, picking you up easily in one hand, and turning you, examining you “Really?” he says, sounding almost offended “You should know better scum, you can’t escape me. You’re just a nobody; whereas I bear the gifts of the gods.”

“Not my gods!” you say defiantly, though inside you’re shaking with fear. King of Hell, welcome your faithful servant home.

He shakes you “They are the only gods that matter now.” He says, and inhales, sucking all that flame billowing around him back into his mouth, and then focuses on you, ready to breathe out and end you.

You feel sick, you feel scared, and you can hear voices, like the buzzing of flies or thousands of insects crawling on old leaves. Deep inside you feel a power, a strength you didn’t know you had, and suddenly it bursts forth, wanting to be used.

What do you do with this power?

Eh, no mind reading in any case. We got guns for hurting as of now.
Mind-control or Teleport sounds like the best, although I wouldn't mind telekinesis either.

It is. I follow AToW and used to follow HxQ where any power is just WORDS each time it's used or gained, but this is fine too.

So much samefaging, all these votes without new IPs

At first I got stuck with a loli mc. But I didn't care.. because it could be salvaged. Then guns and cqc. Everything is going to be fine...

Then they samefagged for "Understanding"

It also let him manipulate everyone he came into contact with. In still convinced that the only reason Lelouch won is because of plot armor.

Also avoid portion of why he was so crazy is because CC messed him up.

What I don't fucking get.. is that it's fucking obvious... I mean.. Does anyone really think Pally is sitting back and going WOW ALL THESE PEOPLE!

Why the fuck do they keep samefagging? Understand and Get away are clearly being samefagged. I just don't get it man.

If you have to samefag your votes.. that means people don't want it meaning you'll kill participation. Which eventually kills the quest.

Rolled 2 (1d2)

Ok I'm just going to roll a dice, seems this vote could stay balanced a long time

1 - Get away
2 - Understand
>>
>>36861427
>Understand him
>>
>>36861834
Sorry pally. See you in your other quest but this is bullshit.
>>
Understand it is, writing.
>>
>>36861834
Thats just bullshit. Literally only one guy samefagged understanding. If anything should be rolled out its "Go off" or "Get away".
Or do a FD vote Pally. Seriously.
>>
>>36861834
And here we go!

>>36861847
See you next vote
>>
>>36861819
Faggots gonna fag, man. I don't really think there is anything we can do to stop it. unless there is. which would be awesome and why aren't we using it.
>>
>>36861834
Please lets do a FD vote. It can't be that a option wins that was literally exclusively samefagging.

It either works or it doesn't. Either way, it leads to complaints and/or easymodo.
> Teleport
Usually tends to make things too easy and leads to hectic situations in which others cannot keep up anymore. It's not a team power.
>>36861834
Ugh. Whyyyy. The extension isn't reliable, but >>36861788 did all the work for you. Please recount.

>>36861881
Pally apparently doesn't give two fucks. Same fagging is acceptable. So rev your same fagging for every vote.
>>
>>36861834
Can we not do go with an option that was samefagged?
>>
>>36861883
It works better than just going with a roll between the blatantly samefagged shit.

What is there to understand with this guy? He's a guard who wants to kill us. Is that not satisfactory? Let's disrupt his Cerebellum already!
>>
>>36861834
At least roll out between the votes that were not basically solely samefagging.
No one but one obvious samefag wanted "Understand him".
>>
Ok, at player request I'm going to run a final destination vote in 5 minutes.

Please do not vote until asked to.

Voting will last for 5 minutes after that.

>>36861834
Why was this rolled out? Accepting the samefagged stuff as legit. Get away won.

Ftfy

Final destination doesn't DO anything and just opens up samefagging possibilities.

Just go with what we had already, you rolled and started writing, keep with it
>>
>>36861950
>Stop your bitching about my blatant samefagged bullshit
If anyone would have voted for that option initally I would have accepted that.
But something you just blatanlty samefagged in is not going to make for a good quest for the entire rest that didn't want that shit.
>>
>>36861968
I did. And I didn't same fag for it either. No claims made about the rest of the board's population.
>>
>>36861943
See: >>36861950 >>36861980
Just go with it.

The people who actually won the vote aren't arguing, so please don't mistake it as ALL player's requests
>>
What do the people voting for Understanding think it's going to do?
>>
>>36861950
>Stop fucking bitching already
I only made a single post about it, anon. Chill. If Pally wants to do FD it's okay with me, but I guess I can live with an Empathy MC too.
>>
>>36861950
Except you didn't. It was 8-7 in favor of "Get away"
>>
>>36861943
Please OP, don't waste time like this.

This is a final destination vote. Please post only the number for the vote.

Please do not quote this post.

Please no greentext.

Please do not post anything other than the number.

1 - Understand
2 - Get away

Voting will close in approx 5 minutes, I will post then. No votes after my post closing the vote will count.

>>
>>36862157
>>36862183
In my case its because I'm posting from mobile and I reconnect now and then, so pretty much all my posts have new IPs.
>>
>>36862183
Notice: It was proved Final Destination did shit all to prevent samefagging

Notice: People pushed for it anyway.

GEE, I WONDER WHY.
Pally was fucking stupid to go along with it
>>
>>36862213
>GEE, I WONDER WHY.
Because it led to a far clearer outcome?
As it obviously ended up doing?
>>
>>36862102
Bluh, I dun fucked up.
>>
>>36862204
I know right? I mean, it's almost like EVERYONE is same fagging.
Holy shit batman.
>>
>>36862204
The vote was divided before.
Final Destination does nothing against samefagging (Which is blatantly clear before we even did FD)
So the result is obvious, whoever samefags harder wins the vote.

>>36862230
>Clearer outcome
You mean it shows who samefagged the most easier, right?
>>
>>36862256
Actually I'd guess that everyone voting for throw him/hurt him/let go

swapped to Get away. It's what I did because understanding was the worst fucking option.
>>
>>36862256
>You mean it shows who samefagged the most easier, right?
Considering how massively outvoted Understanding was, no, it really doesn't.

But it can do that. A clever Qm could just look at the new IPs generated to see which are dubious and which are not. Might hurt special cases like >>36862206
But its the best we got, currently.
>>
>>36862281
Which is what I meant by saying the Vote was divided.

Honestly though, Pally should have kept to the rolling.
>>
>>36862281
I voted for Let it go and swaped to Get away
>>
>>36862256
>Mommy, my learning how to reset my IP didn't let my samefagging win! Those guys are mean!
>>
>>36861819
But there are 70 unique IPs

inb4proxyfagging though because a vote you don't want gets pushed as a popular vote
>>
>>36862305
No fuck that. Understanding was awful.
>>
>>36862292
>Implying samefags only use new IPs
Haha, man you're stupid.
>>
>>36862327
>>36862322
Its really obvious.
And I apologise to those that wanted something besides Get away. But I wouldn't let that bullshit Understanding win when basically every single vote for it generated a new IP.
>>
>>36862333
YOU DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT UNDERSTANDING WAS
WHAT IT WOULD DO
HOW WE WOULD USE IT
OR HOW IT WOULD BE IMPLEMENTED OR CHANGE ANYTHING IN THE FUTURE
YOU KNOW FUCKING NOTHING ABOUT UNDERSTANDING
>>
>>36862204
Well, the thing was that only a minority wanted Understanding, and the majority, no longer split between the other options, decided on "Get away."
>>
>>36862375
>minority
It was, two guys, at the most.
>>
>>36862372
You could say we chose not to understand it.

Okay guy.

Can we just keep going now? I'm so for with this bullshit.

I'm so high right now.

Right now you want to be anywhere but here, and you do mean anywhere! The power within you surges in response. The Gifted, no the whole room, everything, just disappears and for a moment you wonder if you’re dead, are you dead, this doesn’t feel like the afterlife? Whats- Owwww!

You land butt first on the floor, picking yourself up and rubbing your bruised behind, you look around, you’re in another part of the building, no machinery or gifted in sight. You kinda recognise this place, you think you and your allies came through here on your way in, which means they should be...in this direction! You head for them at a dead run. You’re not sure what just happened, maybe your prayers were answered, maybe something stranger, either way, you all need to get out of here now!

You run as fast as you can back to your allies “We need to go another way” you gasp out to Charun “Way ahead is blocked.” If Charun is surprised at you running up to him from a different direction than the one you’re supposed to be scouting in, he doesn’t show it. You don’t know if you want to tell him about the Gifted or not, maybe later. Sure it’s important info and he might ask you how you got away, and...the gods you worship are not well thought of by many.

“Ok” he says gruffly “Rainya found us a way out, keep an eye on the rear would you?”

“Sure” you breathe, just breathe, and try to forget you just escaped one of the Gifted. You wait until the others have gone past and bring up the rear, immediately in front of you is Dev.
“So Shee” he says as he trudges along carrying the weight of his pack easily “What’re you doing here?”

“Rearguard” you say, looking backwards occasionally.

“No I mean” he gathers his thoughts “Like, why here, with us, I mean, you’re a hiver right, why fight Them?”
>>
“Beats getting a summer job” you respond glibly, sometimes you wonder that yourself, then you remember that what drives you to put yourself in danger.

As it stands we're a fucking murderhobo. If the Fae thing wins then we will literally be a murderhobo.

Having some emotional powers (Considering we're a fucking psychic) isn't out of the question.
On top of that, when were you under the impression that one choice here makes us a DIPLOMANCER? It's been confirmed several times that isn't the case
>>
>>36862436

>>36862558
Yeah you're right anon. More samefagging is the way to go. Fight fire with fire!

Yeah no.
>>
>>36862436
>Meh, I got no other place to be
>>
>>36862597
If there would have been a race between 1 and 2 in that FD vote I might actually believe the "samefagging won" thing. But as it is, its pretty obvious most at least didn't want the Understanding thing, so FD served its purpose in that regard.
>>
>>36862436
>Meh, I got no other place to be

>>36862611
Mind reading? Means we can tell what actions they're going to take in a fight, allows us time to prepare a counter, dodge, or do any number of things.

I'd take that 10/10 times over teleportation
>>
>>36862611
Sniper who teleports is fantastic.
>>
>>36862658
And with teleportation we can overcome basically any kind of logistical challenge.
Which at this point is way more useful to us. Not much point to know what the enemy wants to do, if you don't have anything you can do about it.
>>
>>36862611
>sometimes I get people, I understand things I don't want to and I like people I want to hate.
>I can teleport places. There's a patch of no sensation and then I end up someplace else, it's really good at sneaking around.

I think /tg/ is just suffering from meaningless diplomancer hate.
>>
>>36862694
It's boring, doesn't allow for much character interaction and is hardly fun in the long run.

Besides, we're never going to play we like an actual sniper. Have you seen /tg/ with this shit?

"blinking as sniper isn't fun".
You are free to have your opinion, we just happen to disagree.
And no, we aren't going to be playing a sniper in the long run, and? This isn't our only ability for the long run either.
And I would recommend to you to read up the psychic powers in the pastebin, to understand why getting teleport now, can be good in the long run.

Hint: Its about Disciplines
>>
>>36862760
Well maybe that's because it's a power with more than one interpretation?
Teleporters teleport.... Well that's about all there is to know about that.
Inb4 arguments about how teleporting is actually highly variable in so many ways...
>>
You honestly don’t know why you’re here, you aren’t particularly committed to the cause, and you don’t hate the fey either, beyond the usual dislike anyone would feel for immortal inhuman creatures that can snuff out lesser beings with a thought.

As you watch out for anyone sneaking up behind you, you wonder why there’s no alarms going off, surely the Gifted must have alerted the guards of this place?

Suddenly a loud klaxon starts blaring “Move it!” yells Charun, he Rhydian and Dev struggle to run under the heavy weights of their packs.

Maybe it’s because you’re in such a rush that no one notices the guards coming the other way. The two groups barrel into one another full speed and everyone goes flying. You all get to your feet a little stunned and then you start shooting at each other only a few yards apart. Fortunately you and Charun are pretty fast on the draw, and you both kill a guard apiece, You poke a bloody hole in one with your gun and Charuns plasma pistol reduces another guard to a mess of charred flesh.

Unfortunately the third guard gets a shot off before you can finish him, and Rhydian falls down, bellowing in pain.

Dev tries to pick him up but Rhydian just yells in pain. Charuns face suddenly looks cold and hard, as if he’s going to have to make a harsh decision.

“Leave him” he says to Dev.

“What?” says Dev “He’s wounded.”

“I know” says Charun “And we’re leaving, guards are coming.”

You can hear running footsteps approaching. You might be able to hold them off long enough for someone to stop Rhydians bleeding, allowing you all to flee, or you could tend to him yourself, or you could follow Charuns order to leave him behind.

Your ally is wounded; what do you do?

There is a pretty big gap between Diplomancer and MurderHobo.
You can definitly solve some problems with diplomacy without HAVING to solve very problem with diplomacy.

Murderhobo makes for absurdly boring quests, in theory? They sound nice, on paper they'll have 1-2 players and everyone else would have dropped it.

See though, there IS a pretty big gap. But the fact is, is that /tg/ will always drop into Diplomancer even if they're not specced for it, why? Because that's how the voting behaviour and pattern works, they'll become the common interpretation of a diplomancer, no matter what.

That being said, there hasn't been one diplomancer who's only solved things with words.

>Because that's how the voting behaviour and pattern works
Which really doesn't need reinforcing through skill set. That at least gives the whole thing flavor.
You are definitly right about /tg/ having a boner for "solving with WORDS", but that doesn't mean we need to encourage it from the start. We can have a non-bland MC at least for some time.

>Murderhobo makes for absurdly boring quests, in theory? They sound nice, on paper they'll have 1-2 players and everyone else would have dropped it.
I dunno man, AssassinSchoolQuest clearly doesn't do it with its stellar writing.
So there is definitly a market for it.

True, won't stop me from trying something different though.

Covering fire it is.

>>36862996
There's nothing bland about a character who talks to people to solve their issues.

>Which really doesn't need reinforcing through skill set.
Aside from, you know, the times where we would get ourselves into more trouble because we don't have those skills but still go into social situations?

>AssassinSchoolQuest
I don't follow it, but doesn't the QM run multiple other quests at the same time? I'm not sure murderhobos are good for QMs either
>>
>>36862996
>Trying to solve problems with words means a bland MC
>The only good thing about Assassin School Quest is the murder and sociopathic behavior
As long as we don't go full retard about it, I have no problem with attempting to solve some of our problems with words.
>>
>>36862996
AssassinSchoolQuest, I don't know why I like this quest, it's writing is terrible but I just can't stay away from it.
>>
>>36863113
I'm not saying the only good thing about ASQ is the murder, but clearly Layla is a murderhobo, and yet a lot of people, me included, greatly enjoy it.
No one is against solving some of our problems with words, but thats not Diplomancing. Because, as I said, there is a huge gap between "never solving your problems with words" and "always trying to do it with words".

>>36863108
>Aside from, you know, the times where we would get ourselves into more trouble because we don't have those skills but still go into social situations?
Thats true for any skillset. There will always be a time to improvise in situations we aren't built for. And social situations aren't solely solvable by diplomancing.

>but doesn't the QM run multiple other quests at the same time?
By now yes. At least the newest one isn't completly murderhoboing. Sorta.

Gotta stay on track. Don't really wanna specc into medic too now.

“Patch him up!” you yell at Dev as you grab some cover behind a corner and with a few well-placed shots, keep the guards chasing you from getting too close.

You hear ripping sounds behind you as Dev improvises bandages out of Rhydians clothes. Charun joins you, his plasma pistol firing a jet of superheated flame down the corridor, making the guards go stumbling back.

“Kinda foolish don’t you think!” he yells at you over the sound of the guards returning fire.

“Maybe” you yell back “But we’re not leaving him behind.”
“Huh” grunts Charun “Just like your old man” to Dev he yells “Are you done yet!” Yeah you’ll have to ask Charun about that later.

“Done!” yells Dev, you risk a glance behind you to see Dev still shouldering his pack, Rhydians is discarded on the floor, Rhydian himself has one of Devs arms wrapped around his waist, one of his own arms over Devs shoulders.

As a group you retreat to the exit, firing at the guards whenever they get close. You see no further sign of the Gifted.

When you get out of the water treatment plant you see Rainya pull up in the old truck. You help Dev get the Cellanite and Rhydian inside. Just as you’re climbing in you hear more vehicle engines, sounds like you’re about to have a chase on!

You could drive, or shoot at your pursuers with your rifle, or Rainyas repeater pistol, lying unused on the seat next to her.

Diplomancing by itself isn't a terrible thing. Its just that so many /tg/ characters focus on it that iot becomes overdone. And focusing on diplomacy does force your character into a nieche after a while, not just ability wise, but also personality wise. Which other abilties don't in the same way.
And clearly the best thing about ASQ is Maria

Charun pushes Rainya “Get out of the way, let me drive!” Together in the truck you speed off, Dev holds Rhydian as still as he can, as you and Rainya fire on the pursuing vehicles. Rainya fires off a lot of bullets but her shots go wild.

You breathe evenly, you were taught to shoot no matter the distractions. The shaking of the truck, the noises, your own panic, it all falls away as you gently squeeze *bang* and the tyre of the lead chasing vehicle explodes, the vehicle slewing sideways, one of the other cars crashes into it as other swerve around it and keep chasing.

Charun drives like a madman, the truck screeches around corners and smashes through makeshift shacks, a plume of dust ploughed up in its wake. Between his driving and you shooting the tyres out of the chasing cars you make it to the edge of Dust Town proper, where hopefully, the guards won’t follow.

Charun pulls the truck up off the road “Time to bail and run” he says.

You’re on the edge of Dust Town. You could keep going and hope to lose them, or ditch the vehicle and run places theirs can’t go either, but if you do you’ll need a rear guard and someone to scout ahead. And Rhydian is still wounded.

What do you do?

Dev seems moderately less useless than the others, but yea.
>>
“Keep driving!” you yell to Charun “We can lose them in Dust Town.”

“They’ll track us!” he growls back “And you and I will be having words about this Hyul!”

Despite his argument he revs the engine and continues into the collection of shacks and lean-tos that make up Dust Town.

After a few minutes you can see the vehicles turn around and leave, seems they aren’t too keen on being out in Dust Town this late either.

“This is a bad idea” says Charun pessimistically “mark my words, it’ll turn out bad.”

“They can track us” jeers Rainya, clearly riding the adrenaline high “Not even if they had a dozen vamps! No one knows the Dust like dusters.”

“Someone told me you used to be all chummy with the vampires, Shee” croaks Rhydian from his place in the back seat “Date one didja?”

“Easy Rhydian” says Dev, pushing the injured man back in his seat “lie back, good, that’s it, no need to re-open that wound.”

“Never dated a vampire” you say “Dated a few people that really sucked though.”

You know you mustn’t react, vamp-lovers aren’t liked in Dust towns, thing is....

Yeah, you remember Ash from your days in the Hive, you went to school together. He was good friend, the best. You never thought anything was wrong with him being a vamp. The two of you were inseparable, neither of you had any close family so you spent a lot of time in each others company. You haven’t seen him in almost 4 years now.

“I bet you had a vamp lover” says Rhydian in a sing-song voice as you help Dev get him out of the truck.

“Ignore him” says Dev “It’s the wound talking.”

“Yeah wanna suck on my wound, blood-whore?” asks Rhydian, trying to take his makeshift bandage off.

“Shut up” says Rainya to Rhydian “Calling someone a blood-whore is horrible.”

“Thanks” You kinda fumble out, you’re not good with gratitude.

Blood-whore, yeah you’ve heard that name before, Ash....

Voting closed, counting.

>>36864609
Only a few votes have been close enough to need it and also generated a lot of votes. Most votes have been resolved clearly in one direction or another.

Still I'll consider it. I hope it isn't needed once chargen is done and the quest proper starts.

You aren't even pretending anymore to be voting legit are you?
You can stop with the samefagging now.
2 won by 2.
>>
I count 13-15 in favour of option 2, writing this, feel free to check my count
>>
>>36864790
>>36864800
>>36864811
>>36864814
jesus christ, you could at least pretend you know?

>>36864829
Nope its right. Samefagging carried the day.
>>
>>36864829
Nope it checks out due to the two missvotes.
>>
>>36864824

Hey, hey, sorry I was late.

>>36864811
>>36864814
>>36864800
>>36864790

Now you're just trying to sabotage 2's votes, even if we all know both sides samefagged
>>
>>36864869
All four of you?

>>36864880
Seriously? I don't think there is a need to pretend this was ever about anything but who samefagged the hardest. Why do you think he cried for FD so hard?
>>
>>36864880
>>36864839
>>36864869
God am I in Shadowrun or something?
>>
>>36864829
I'd personally write it in favor of 1 because of the really, really obvious samefagging for 2 (I saw three votes for 2 that didn't tick up the IP), but do whatever.

I didn't, and still don't, care which option wins. I just hope Hexer feels guilty over retweeting and that the blood of samefags turns to acid in their veins.
>>
Yeah I think I leave this quest at this point, if this is indiccative about how things work here.l
>I samerfag hard
>Oh no, my samefagging didn't win
>FD FD
>Samefags harder.
See you in three months Pally, and I thought the celestial babies thing was bad.
>>
>>36864904
I blame Hexer too.

But honestly? I'd write on favor of 2, at least it's consistent
>>
>>36864904
Yea let's shit on a QM for trying to help another quest get off the ground.
>>
>>36864935
How is it consistent?
And there is no reason to hope. Pally has, and always will go with the vote, no matter how blatant the samefagging.
It how he does it, and I can respect that even if I don't like it.
>>
>>36864928
It's been like that since the "Understanding" vote, why didn't you realize it then?

Did you lose the vote or something?
>>
>>36864904
>(I saw three votes for 2 that didn't tick up the IP)

This means absolureltely nothing. There are so many IPs now that they could be samefagging or not.
>>
>>36864956
Consistent in accepting samefagged votes.
>>
>>36864957
No I realised that then too. But that was one time. That kind of thing happens. But twice is getting a bit too much.
Don't really want to read one anons Quest.
>>
>>36864959
No they couldn't because duplicates would still be blocked without changing the IP.
>>
>>36864928
They'll probably get bored and leave within a few threads.

>>36864953
It didn't need to get off the ground, Pally already had a dedicated fanbase.

>>36864959
If there was a third option that both sides would hate, I'd have told him to write that. I'm just in a spiteful mood, don't take that too seriously.
>>
>>36865004

Right, I had forgotten about that.
>>
>>36865013
The middle way would be to have drunk once.
That would be the third option.
>>
>>36865004
What if they switched back to the IP they were using before?
>>
Thing is, as a minor, Ash wasn’t supposed to drink your blood. You dared him to do it once, and after you pushed and pushed he did. It felt weird at first, and then it felt good, so good, better than anything you’d felt before.

Of course, once wasn’t enough. It wasn’t long before Ash was feeding from you regularly. As close of the two of you were, you think his family and yours suspected, but no one said anything. When you had to leave the Hive, it hurt losing that feeling, almost as much as it hurt losing contact with your best friend. You wonder a little cynically if you started taking drugs to try and replace the pleasure you felt when he fed from you. Are you a blood-whore? Yeah, you kinda are, still, wound or no, Rhydian doesn’t get off that easy, you start towards him, only for Charun to get in your way.

“That’s enough” says Charun, glaring at all of you “keep it quiet, go home, and I’ll speak to you all in the morning.” As you all begin to disperse he points at you “not you” he says.

“What?” you say “What’d I do?”

Charun waits until the others are gone, and then grabs you, drags you around a corner and slams you into the wall, hard “I heard that thing yelling for you” he growls “From what the Gifted was yelling it had you, and then you got away. What happened?” He’s breathing hard, and when he walks he’s limping, must’ve taken a bad hit in that last fight, there’s blood making a dark stain on his pants leg.

How do you respond?
>Tell the truth
>Lie
>Just shake him off

Extra
>Ask him what he knows about your father
>Don’t ask yet
>>
>>36865013
>It didn't need to get off the ground, Pally already had a dedicated fanbase.
Okay then
> I'm just in a spiteful mood, don't take that too seriously.
Okay never mind. I'll let you calm down.
>>
>>36865052
Thats not possible for most.
And definitly highly implausible for a large number of IPs.
>>
Pally, I'm really sorry this is how the first thread of your new quest has turned into.

Yeah not really banking on that. Not that anon, but I'm gonna sit this out too. I can read the archive and see how it goes.
>>
>>36865067
>Just shake him off
>Ask him what he knows about your father
>>
>>36865109
you didn't know your mother and father. In context I meant the aunts and uncles who raised you.
>>
>>36865067
>Tell the truth
>Ask him what he knows about your father
>>
>>36865067

None of his business.

Just GTFO.

Damn that makes a lot of sense.

I'm thinking if we tell him the truth we're more likely to get information
>>
Truth + ask about your father it is, writing.

You look down “Yeah” you say “It had me, and I got away.”

“How?” he asks intently.

“I dunno” you answer “one minute it had me by the throat, ready to burn my face off, the next I was elsewhere, almost like I-”

“Teleported” he answers for you “Yeah, figured this might happen.”

“What do you mean?” you ask, getting a little angry, everyone keeps secrets from you “What do you-”

He holds up one hand to quiet you “Not yet” he says quietly “no point in giving you half a story, I got a few errands to run next few days, then I’ll take you out to the- to a place I know, and show you what your family started.”

You glare at him, but it seems that as much truth as he’s willing to give you, in this area at least, for now.

“What did you mean back there?” you ask “About me being just like my father?”

Charun looks away, then back at you “Yeah ok, I figure you’re old enough, you follow the Five, just like your father?”

You nod, Charun continues “You picked one to follow above the others yet?”

Have you?

>No, I follow then equally, for now.
>Yes (options in next post)

Simple yes/no vote to avoid vote splitting amongst 5 options. If yes, then options in next post.
>>
>>36865428
>No, I follow then equally, for now.
>>
>>36865428

Let's get more of a grip on our character first

“Ichor in the Depths, watch over me, your faithful child;”

>>36865428

>>
>>36865428
>No, I follow then equally, for now.

Dammit, did I miss the FD vote?

for the record, I still think this is best background:
>He drank our blood a few times... we kinda liked it
but that was the drugs talking. Pedo Fucker woulda killed us if we hadn't run
>>
>>36865759
Its not like it mattered if you voted or not.
And the drugs came after and as result from the blood drinking.
>>
You shake your head “No” you say “I follow them equally, for now.”

“Good” he says “keep doing it.”

“Why?” you ask.

Charun pauses “The Five” he says “Are dangerous.”

You roll your eyes, here it comes, the lecture about how your gods are evil monsters just because they aren’t whitewashed and generic like Syrne.

“Don’t roll your eyes at me girlie!” snaps Charun “I don’t mean evil, I mean *dangerous* they are all one of a thing, elemental, absolute, they have no middle ground.”

“So?” you ask.

“So for most folk” he says “That’s neither here nor there, but for you, for your *father*” he emphasises the word by poking you in the chest with a finger “for any psychic or mage who follows them, you can take on too much of their nature, and end up being just like them.”

“I saw your father” he says “Transform into the very image of the King of Hell and challenge a Royal Fae, yes” he notes your shocked look “A Royal. The King gave him the power to fight such a creature, but when he was losing, he couldn’t back down, too filled with pride, I saw the sands of Gehe- oh a creature whose name I won’t speak, drag him down. Follow the Five if you will girl, but if you pick one as a patron, know that you will become like that one, sooner or later. Goodnight.”

And with that he walks away, leaving your thoughts whirling.
>>
>>36865759
he was same age as us.
>>
Thank you for playing. I hope you enjoyed yourselves.

Next quest will be in just over 12 hours, I’ll post 1 hour warning via twitter and will get the character sheet together before then.

I’m aware that some players are unhappy with how things turned out, and how I did votes. If anyone has any suggestions on how I can improve on this, please let me know. I can’t always watch the IP counter as I’m trying to keep ahead of the thread by writing updates.

Final Destination on close votes, and/or when requested seems the best solution thus far, but I am always open to suggestions.

I will read the archive so feel free to drop questions, suggestions and feedback in the thread.
>>
>>36865759
We didn't do drugs until after we had left, the vampire is our age, it took a fair amount of effort on our part to get him to drink our blood.
>>
>>36865824
>Final Destination
By the first one it was actually just suggested as alternative to rolling out the tie. The second one had a clear winner and didn't need any resolution.
>>
>>36865824
I hope the ritual worked and the samefags are dead.

See you in twelve hours Pally.
>>
>>36865824
>>36865859
Agreeing here. You literally can't prevent samefagging in any meaningful fashion, and the FD the first time was because rolling out stuff is even worse. There is really no point in repeating a FD for a vote that had a clear decision, no matter how manipulated, because the second round won't be any less manipulated.
>>
>>36865759
> pedo
Hey he was our age.
>>
>>36865961
>>36865799
Actually we don't know if he was.
He can easily have been older than us and still in the same school.
>>
>>36865979
Well, it felt good so it can't have been bad, right?
>>
>>36865979
>Thing is, as a minor, Ash wasn’t supposed to drink your blood
>as a minor
>>
>>36865995
We know now it was bad, anyway.
Thats the thing with kids and drugs I guess.
Now we're a unreliable blood slut
>>
>>36866010
Yes, we were a minor, and he wasn't supposed to drink blood from one. We don't know if he was one too. Both is possible.
>>
>>36866011
>Now we're a unreliable blood slut
Still more competent than the rest of this freakshow.
>>
>>36866011
>Now we're a unreliable blood slut
I hope thats one of Pallys fetishes, I want this to be thing.
>>
>>36866034

The 'minor' there references Ashley.
>>
>>36866064
Sure, until we sell them all out for a fix.
>>
>>36866066
It is.
Trust me, I speak to him in private about that sort of thing
>>
>>36866034
I was reading it as him being a minor and vampires below a certain age not being allowed to drink blood from living sapients. Probably something about self-control.

That's probably the wrong way to read it, but I wouldn't be surprised if he was about our age anyway.
>>
>>36866083
No, it definitly refers to us.
There is no reason why he shouldn't be drinking blood as minor, he still needs it to survive, while there are reasons why blood shouldn't officially be drunk from a minor.
>>
>>36866097

Is he also a futa fucker?
>>
>>36866097
CX, get out. Or Mathrian. Whichever of you.
>>
>>36866108
He didn't talk much about Futa, so I'd say no.
>>
>>36866097
I was against the "drunk from us", but if it ends in a corruption thing, it turned out surprisingly okay. Would have preferred to develop that addiction in quest, but you can't have everything.
>>
>>36865824
The only suggestion I'd have is to include all the choices in the FD votes - I have no idea whether people were actually samefagging, but if people's theories were right, some of the choices in the FD votes weren't actually the most popular choice.
>>
>>36866116
I don't even know who Mathrian is.
CX is some faggot on the IRC right? Don't know him either
>>
>>36866116
Mathrian has a corruption/degradation fetish?
Its always the moralfags isn't it?
>>
>>36865824
You did good.
>>
>>36866170
>I don't even know who Mathrian is.
Did you not read the previous quest?
>>
>>36866257
There is no particular reson to assume all or even most people here read PoJ.
>>
>>36866274
There kinda is when he's talking about personal conversations with the QM of that quest.
>>
>>36866314

Not really. I've had personal conversations with the QM plenty of times, and it never changed anyting in the quests.
>>
>>36866383
I think he meant to point out, someone who had personal conversations with a QM, is definitly more likely to have read is quest than the average reader.
>>
>>36865824
Thanks for running, only two votes that samefaged hard, not much you can do with that, thanks for the consistency, see you next thread.
