Hear Ye, Hear Ye! I call to order today's meeting of our illustrious and much beloved Mage's Guild. As you all know, the new semester has officially begun. On that note, due to what can only be described as considerable amounts of irresponsibility on the part of our budget committee, and a general lack of altruism on the part of our faculty, from today on, we will be accepting applications not only for new apprentices, but also experienced mages willing to teach said apprentices for little to no pay. I would further like to take this time to remind our current faculty that, although your pay will be unaffected, please try to limit the more expensive end of your daily shenanigans. Additionally, I would further like to remind you that the Buerocromancers have gotten wise to the old "this apprenticed just so happened to explode in a magic fireball, and we would like to collect his life insurance" trick, and as such you are asked to not randomly commit murder in our halls in an attempt to raise funds for your department.
>>37599794=====================================================================================================================Hello everyone, and welcome to this quest. Now, as you will come to realize, this is a quest unlike any other. To play, you can begin by creating a mage, apprentice, or any other sort of visitor who might show up to a meeting of a guild of wizards. Usually the OP will describe a plot of some sort in the first post of the thread. As the meeting goes on, the players will discuss the matter, along with various other things, between themselves. This quest takes place in the setting of the Mages's Guild, a series of threads that have been on /tg/ for a very long time, if you wish to learn more about the setting, please read them on sup/tg/. This quest is fully player driven, although the majority of it is dialouge between the players. The world of the mages guild is an exciting place full of heroes and adventure, and we look forward to sharing it.To create a character, just come up with a name, power, backstory, etc, then have them join in on the conversation. You are welcome to describe what your character looks like if you so choose. You should feel free to make your character as weak or powerful as you want to, but are asked not to be to unreasonable about it. Remember, over-over-powered characters just aren't fun for anyone. Some notes on the setting and current characters: http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Mage%27s_guildOne of the many tags on sup/tg/ where you can find old threads: http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive.html?tags=-omancyAs much as some people may not like it, this thread is here for us all to enjoy. Remember to follow /Tg/'s board rules. 1. BE EXCELLENT TO EACH OTHER.2. PARTY ON, DUDES. (AND DUDETTES)Also, don't steal anyone's name, as that is rude.
>>37599821Additionally, try to keep OOC in spoilers.
I'll have you know I've never killed any of my students just to cash in their life insurance.That I cash it in after they kill themselves via stupidity is completely tangential.
"Kek."
Good Evening everybody.
>>37599942"Heya James! Are you excited for the event tonight?"
>>37599794Antruthius I need to talk to you. I would like to apply as teacher too. Teacher for draconic lore and dragon magic to be specific. Under which department does that fall or is it a department in itself?
>>37599987dropped my nametag sorry
>>37599794>>37599911It is really somewhat disappointing that he had to explicitly state that.
>>37600023 damn it I swear I typed it in
Here is your coffee everyone
>>37600076>Give Noone Coffee? [y/n]
>>37600086>yes
>>37600076Morning Evening or Afternoon Mortimer. Can I get one with extra extra extra extra Cream or Milk?
>>37600059 test test 1 2 3
What is this? I was promised a deathrace! I, Fabulous Esteban, demand explanation!
>>37600116Here you go>>37600129Coffee?
>>37600111>Oh god why>Noone grabs his coffee and chugs it
>>37600129Vex is handling that, Calm down. They aren't around just yet. Probably finishing up the last touches. Have a seat and a drink and wait. >>37600141Niiiice.
>>37600076Dear mortimer, do you have something with a bit more kick dear.
>>37599794Glad I never relied on that trick then.>>37600076Thank You Mortimer.>>37600129Later Esteban
>>37600129Vex, the organizer, has disappeared into the Aether.As usual, Damn fool girl can't be bothered to actually be useful.>>37600076Thank you, kind sir.
>>37600145Wait, no!!!!! That was the one with dolls eyes in it!>>37600160Here is extra black, with a shot of alcohol>>37600163>>37600173Your welcome
>>37599794Well I guess that source of income was good while it lasted. Oh well, time to sit back and see what new apprentices sign up for this years meat grinder.>>37600076Excellent, thank you Mortimer.
>>37600163Soros good to see you, is ther any reason for this meeting really?
>>37599987Draconic magic would fall under the Racial Magic over-school. While Draconic lore would fall under the history department. Fortunately for you, the position as teacher of Draconic magic has been open since the previous teacher has gone into hibernation, and I would be happy to hire you for the position.
Okay here we go. Good evening everyone. It was me who asked the Archwizard for the position as teacher for draconic lore and dragon magic.>>37600173Well she is good to look at.
>>37600188Of course sir
>>37600173I, Fabulous Esteban, shall not stand for this! How dare I be kept waiting in my most magnificent of red cloaks, this is an outrage!
Finally, I'm able to catch one of these meetings early on. And just great, it seems like I will have to put up with a bunch of brats who consider themselves to be great mages. just great.
>>37600189Funding, the race, getting new faculty.
>>37600192Oh thanks Antruthius! Do I need to fill a form or anything?
>>37600076Thank you, Mortimer.>>37600129I believe they are still preparing the course for the event.
>>37600261Your welcome sir
>>37600185"Wha-">Vibrates out out the building
>>37600252Could be worse, you still get your own funding, my department is being forced to be self-sufficient. >>37600286Check on Cromina.
>>37600185*Takes a sip* Ahhh just as I like it dear mortimer. You do me well thank you.>>37600188Off to have the highest fatality rate this year? Trying to beat the fleshwarper department this year?.>>37600210Do you deal with pact magic at all? I would love to collaborate to come up with some new ways to manipulate pact magic.
>>37600173I have faith that once she does show up, the show will be worth the wait.
>>37600296Oh dear>>37600297What happened?>>37600303I aim to please
>>37600234Take a chill pill Estevan Get some coffee. You have plenty of time to die, Stop rushing into it.
>>37600252You dare doubt the magical potential of me, Fabulous Esteban? I, Fabulous Esteban, shall prove all of you crackpot stage magicians wrong in this so-called "Maze of death!">>37600305It had best be worth the wait, for I, Fabulous Esteban, most promising of the magical pupils in my home, am not known for my patience!
>>37600256Just sign here. *a book floats towards you and opens to a page, a line at the bottom glows softly next to the word signature* No need to read the fine print.
>>37599794>Checks the 1d4chan page>No mention within the active, inactive, or forgetful roster of Herr HearschI may not be the most active member but I was sort of there for a few things!*pours himself a cup of tea*I see we're in a budget crisis again.... *sighs* Going to have to cut down on spending in my department again. This time I'll have to cutback on materials...Anyway, how is everyone? The Antruthius, how was that bad case of being dead work out for you?
>>37600326Magical rift opened up on her back, I cant bind it but not seal it.
>Enters the guild hall with pants"H-hello? has anyone seen Vex?"
>>37600305Yes, one hopes.>>37600303Our department gets a lot of idiots who manage to get themselves killed no matter how hard we try to stop it from happening.So, instead, we collect their life insurance and use them as materials for the next class.
>>37600297Oh big deal. All you have to do is make some investments that you know will work out because you can see the future.>>37600350...Very well then, as long as I can provide the monsters for the maze.
>>37600359On it>>37600365Sorry, but no. Coffee?
>>37600341*looks at her closely* are you applying for the magical girl school by any chance?>>37600297I might be able to subvert some funding. I run off of a lot of donations for preventing demon and devil attacks, would you enjoy the financial help, no cost or favors owed needed.
>>37600303I'm actually trying to cut down on casualties, but with how these things go it's a futile effort. So yes, I'm probably going to end up with the highest fatality rate, but not for trying, this time.>>37600350I've seen the plans for the course, it will be worth the wait.>>37600356You aren't the only one who was forgotten, I had to take things into my own hands.
What the hell happened last meeting?! I heard the Archwizard died?!
>>37600365I believe she is out preparing the maze.
>>37600365She fashion make overed you it seems.>>37600380Still wounds my conceit.>>37600368You do need to update your wards.>>37600405Nah, mostly a point of pride. I'll live.>>37600420>>37600424Lazarus did it to start a was Antruthius grounded him.
>>37599794>you are asked to not randomly commit murder in our halls in an attempt to raise funds for your department.Some will find that harder than others, I'm sure. Trigger happy nutters.
>>37600303Uh I deal mostly with the magic my draconic heritage grants me, but draconic lore has a lot to do with banking and banking is simliar to devil stuff right?>>37600353Don't worry I never read the fine print.>Signs with "Zirconis, son of Draconis, first of his name of the House of Red."
>>37600368Mmm sounds efficient and beautiful. I just have demons collect astral diamonds for funding.
>>37600424He got better.
>>37599794Fuck you for making a thread I want to take part in at 0209 GMT. I already feel like a zombie. Sleep now. But feel my smoldering rage and malcontent even as I slumber.
>>37600396Oh yes please!>>37600438O-oh>>37600449>blushesYes...
>>37600365I'm sure they will be around soon enough, Why dont you have a seat and get a drink and chill? No reason to rush to your death. I mean...Whatever.>>37600405Negatory. I'm just here to deal with assassins in exchange for the mages guild helping us defend against magical attacks back in my homeland.>>37600451On that note, You guys could start selling bits and pieces of the assassin corpses we have laying around. Or re-animate them and sell them as butlers!When life gives you assassins, Make assassinaid
>>37600438Hello, James. What's this maze?Jesus fuck, why dI'd this have to happen tonight. I have a modern knight quest to run. Fuck, well looks like it's happening tomorrow.>>37600474Apparently.
>>37600524Here you go. So how long have you known Vex?
>>37600458*Laughs* no it doesn't>>37600449Fair enough. I thought I would offer.>>37600420I can see that. I have honestly not had problems we run a very cautious system. They only lose their soul early now.
>>37600380I, Fabulous Esteban, eagerly await the challenge! For no mere monster can hope to compare to the magical potential of , Fabulous Esteban!>>37600341Silence housecat! For I, Fabulous Esteban, am positively quivering at the chance to test myself!>>37600451I, Fabulous Esteban, would love to see any of these maniacs try it, for my magical potential is unmatched in my lands, and will no doubt dazzle any prospective assassins!
>>37600546Hey, how goes it Mortimer?
>>37600365Who are you again? I was on a vacation for awhile and didn't attend some of the more recent meetings.Well, not so much a vacation and more like- never mind, long story.
>>37600542Vex decided to set up a maze to run apprentices through because they weren't dying fast enough for her.I got her a pack of undead wolves for it, but she hasn't seemed to show up yet.
>>37600555Shots fired!>>37600576It goes good
>>37600424Indeed I did. >>37600458Excellent. *the book vanishes and reappears on Antruthius' lectern*>>37600519I am truly sorry, anon. You are welcome to participate in the thread as long as you are awake, and after it has ended on 4chan, we usually continue to ghost post for a few days on the archive.moe
>>37600424I wanted to start a war with the druids and killed the Archwizard to do it. We brought him back after I was found out. I'm currently working almost for free as punishment.>adjusts his cone of shame and sips his coffee
>>37600551I always thought devils are a bit like dragons, less awesome of course, but instead of hoarding gold the hoard souls.
>>37600600Slumbermancer or whatever thanks you. I didn't know you lot ghost posted.
>>37600555I'll gladly put you to sleep so you can wait in silence instead of assaulting our ears with your drivel.>>37600583Shes a new rookie, Probably wont make it through the death maze so I wouldn't get too attached.
>>37600595Oh Gods above and below that's good shit! She's insane, truly.>>37600597Where do you keep the coffee? I can get it myself I just can't seem to ever find it
>>37600600Coffee sir?
>>37600555Oh goody, let me guess, nobility?
>>37600527But I came here to learn!>>37600546Since last night....>>37600583O-oh hi i'm [mumbles]
>>37600637Here you go sir>>37600663Oh dear
>>37600555Well, I'm sure Jophrey here would just LOVE to keep you company then.
>>37600420I'd have to agree with Lazarus; keeping the students from actively dying during their studies is almost as time consuming as teaching them! I can't promise that the fatalities will drop.>>37600613Huh.>>37600635We still have the deathmaze?>>37600654I had something witty to say, but I'm afraid the sleep has washed it from my memory *sips tea*.
>>37600524Tough luck>>37600551Thanks for the offer.>>37600583She's her for the deathrace. Story time Noel.>>37600663Do yourself a favor kid Drop the race.>>37600686Really?
>>37600663I think Vex intends for you to prove your worth first in the death maze.>>37600696Its a new one.
>>37600654I, Fabulous Esteban, am stunned at your perceptiveness!>>37600686Hah! We, the members present here to include Fabulous Esteban, shall see!
>>37600699Well, I just moved into my new lab and a LOT of my pets sort of... got lost. I'm on a new computer and lost pretty much all my images
>>37600676By the low gods kid, You're helpful but you make me feel guilty.>>37600686Stop messing with the new ones!
>>37600638Thank you Mortimer.
>>37600750Please do not call me kid sir, I am 500 years old.>>37600754Anytime sir.
>>37600614No they are very conniving sons of bitches and cruel and will take your soul at any cost without killing you.
>>37600699But I need to! Vex won't teach me about pinball wizardry other wise!
>>37600600Finally I am a teacher too and can misstrea- ehr educate apprentices! Yay~
>>37600754Hello sir. It's been a long time seen I've seen you. I trust there's no hard feelings? All the things I said back then where said in anger and I apologize for them.
>>37600741I, Fabulous Esteban, express my condolences!>>37600635I, Fabulous Esteban, shall not be stopped from gracing this hall with my near divine voice!>>37600750I, Fabulous Esteban, need no defending!Really hoping he dies in the deathmaze
>>37600741Really? Need me to look for them?>>37600779Is that even a thing? Why not learn regular wizardry?
>>37600699You have helped me out several times so I figured I would try and return the favor.
>>37600789I don't know, that's why I came here.
>>37600718Ah so it won't be as great as the old one.>>37600770Mortimer, how are you?>>37600779If you're so intent on doing it, here's some advice - Don't go right. And for the love of god make sure you have a Sapphire, an Emerald, and a Diamond. I cannot stress those three particular gemstones enough.
>>37600789Oh no, I'm sure I will find them soon, I'm keeping an eye on the local guards. When I see a bunch running in one direction, I'll know they found at least one of them.
>>37600811I am good sir. How are you?
>>37600635I still think the Death Maze is a waste of resources, I mean just studying here is enough of a danger to health and mind. >>37600663Come on now, speak up, you're in a hell of a lot better position than I was when Ashburn dragged me to the council.More dressed too for that matter.
>>37600791I can understand that. Reset your summoning circles three days early by the way.>>37600810Might want to ask for proof before you do anything.>>37600819Alright. Also you have a tentacle showing.
>>37600784I'll be surprised if you make it long enough to run the race at this rate.>>37600811It may be better, IT may be worse. We'll find out.
>crashes through a window, wrestling a cloak made of lavaGodsdammit yield already!Can somebody cost deanimate on this, please?
>>37600832Feeling the weight of ages and wishing that I didn't stop aging in my fifties so my hair wasn't half-grey.
>>37600782None at all Dramorn.>>37600779I would suggest you go to Master Thomas to learn it. Vex once held a village captive with it, whereas Thomas once held the hearts of the world hostage.
>>37600843Well, three things.One: It was Vex's idea, it's not a good plan.Two: I've already got a pack of undead wolves for it, and I don't want to waste them.Three: It'll be fun to watch.
>>37600867>pours coffee on it>>37600880I think that it looks rather well on you sir
>>37600772Replace "sons of bitches" with "creatures of utmost majesty" and "cruel" with "awe-inspiring" and "souls" with "gold" and what do you get? Hmmm?
>>37600843I'm [mumbles] >>37600847Do you have a quarter?
>>37600721Great, mages born from nobility, twice the ego, none of the work ethic.
>>37600847Gods damn it! This is what happens when you move everything yourself and you accidentally spill some potions on yourself...
>>37600843Well, Someone could sell showings of it to nobles for profit if we were to record it...Soros?
Huh, is it time for the apprentice death race yet?>>37600779It's understandable that she would give you a ultimatum like that, her class already have over 130 students. But if you are lucky she might be more accepting off a new apprentice once some of them are lost to the obstacle course.
>>37600939Your crème sir.
>>37600781Don't lie we mistreat them all the time.
>>37600923Several *tosses her a coin*>>37600929Thought you should know.>>37600933Yes?
>>37600847Why is that? I will take the advice nonetheless but why?
>>37600957Hey Mortimer, can you bring me some coffee? With plenty of cream and sugar. I've been having a rough week.
>>37600971We should record the death race, And then sell it. I believe you can handle that? I'm not well versed in magic but I think I've seen you handle something like this before.
>>37600770Holy shit. You look good for your age.
>>37600899Except for the replace the not try to kill you with try to kill you. You missed that.
>>37600994Sure. All you need to do is make some more Vraals. Marco is getting lonely>>37600998Thank you sir
>>37600965Luckily I was homeschooled. To imagine to be in the same lot as those red robed plebs...horrible.>>37601004My father leaves the villagers mostly alive, so he can plunder them again after a few years.
>>37599821Wait im confused is this the mages guild meeting or a quest.
You'll have to excuse me folks, my "Eldritch abominations are trying to burn down my house again" senses are tingling.
>>37600933Cruel, bloody, no respect for human life... Yep they would definitely pay to watch it.>>37600927Really? Not all of us are lazy.>>37600998I would be willing to bet a good deal of that is the coffee.>>37601031BOTH!
>>37601031Supposed to be a quest, someone jumped the gun and didn't wait for the QM
>>37600982Ward failure on part of an apprentice>>37600995Already doing so.....>>37601031Both, bypasses angry mods.
>>37600883And of course not to forget, four: It will be VERY fun to watch.>>37600927Don't worry, he is a red robed apprentice. I think we both know how that ends.>>37601031Mostly the former, calling it the later appears to ward off the mod who keeps deleting the threads though.
>>37601031We've just got the quest tag up there because a janitor will nuke it if we don't
>>37601019fine, I'll get on that as soon as I get my supplies in order.>>37601036Oh, that must be Flopsy.
>>37600998Everyone here is 500 years of age or older. I lost count a long time ago.
>>37601058if we put quest in the name, the mods wont kill threads, also we get new players
>>37601051>>37601058oh well thats alright the last mages guild quest was a bit of a clusterfuck to everybody was running a separate character and everything.
Gentlemen, while we await Vex's arrival, I have most dire news. The local fiefdom has expressed distaste at our decision to steer the hall through their town square and demolish their prized statue of the town's founder. How will we defuse the situation?>Makeshift quest time.
>>37601117Send them 25 gallons of my coffee as an apology
>>37601088Wait, you know that *everyone* here is over 500?Son of a githyanki whore! What gave it away!?
>>37601117I say we magically rebuild the statue and mind wipe everyone so they don't remember what we did.
>>37601028Dragons are fun to play with too. I enjoy drinking games with them.>>37601070I need to flog an apprentice then.>>37601082Flopsy is back?
>>37601088Not everyone, I am technically only 31.>>37601113that is the entire point of mages guild quest, we all make our own characters and interact to run the quest, i thought i made that clear in the op
>>37601088i gave up a lot eariler all those years with the time shenanigans while building the hub plane made keeping track of my age relative to the material and my chronological age a pain
>>37600971>Jill is pelted by several coins. she picks on up and her eyes start to go milky. she feels around with the coin in her hand until it goes forward and the coin disappears.
>>37601117Its a normal stone statue, just ask one of our mages who's good with stone to fix it.
>>37601138Seems likely to work.>roll>>37601143>roll twice, craftsmanship and mental domination
>>37601088Man you cant go generalizing like that. Some of us aren't even middle-aged yet.I still get the heat.
>>37601088...I'm not even close to 500.>>37601145My father brews excelent dragon brand whiskey if you are interested.
>>37601170The Hell?>>37601185
>>37601088cough27cough
>>37601117>>37601143Or someone could just rebuild it, but animate it so that it can talk and shit. Maybe even find the founder's soul and bind it to the statue?
>>37601170Pulverizing pinball!
>>37601145Apparently, I'm just glad I found him so quickly. He can be such a trouble maker when he isn't around his mommy.>>37601117Well, I would shut them up with a show of force using my pets... But most of them are missing. I'm thinking of putting up Missing posters around the town.
>>37601159Technically I am 26 here and old as pit fiends in the hells soooooo.>>37601165Yeah I know the feeling.
Rolled 9 (1d20)>>37601216woops, it was sent to the wrong address. maybe it will work this time
>>37599794well i myself dont need a whole lot of money to do my work.however my teaching on the other hand gets quite expensive i may be able to earn money on my personal work thoughwe could get the war weavers to start putting those weaving skills to good use and sell what they make
>>37601225That's... probably a less than good idea.>>37601185I would, but I'm not the best at either. Anyone else up for it?
>>37600957Thank you Mortimer, but can I have some coffee too, I can still feel the drink I had last night.>>37601088I'm not event 300 yet, and Noel is way younger than me on double digits.>>37601117I'm in favour of anything that does not include throw me out of the hall as a distraction while the hall keeps on moving. Catching up to a moving building doesn't sound that difficult, but in practice it's hard work.
>>37601212Drinking I am always interested friend.>>37601220Noel I feel like we have had this conversation before.
>>37601183I can turn to stone does that count
>>37601260Hells, I know I would have difficulty catching up to it without teleporting. This damn building knows how to run.
>>37601238It appears that they have drank the coffee in a show of contempt.>>37601225>Roll craftsmanship>>37601260I don't know, it's got potential. Joking, joking. Not throwing you out of the building any time soon.
Rolled 9 (1d20)>>37601260Here you go >>37601296Lets try tea
>>37601113That's the whole point of the Mages Guild threads; multiple characters just fuck around and sometimes get shit done.>>37601088Only 500? HA!>>37601260I see you're still one of....well, whatever t is you called them. Fluffy animal things. 300 is quite a feat, we'll have to organize something for that occasion.
Rolled 13 (1d20)>>37601307
>>37601145Wouldn't help much.>>37601170? Only tossed one.>>37601230Please keep them on a short metaphorical leash.>>37601296Hello Pierre.
>>37601269>Snaps his fingers, and a bottles of Dragon Brand apears in his handHere the first bottle is on the house. I hope ypu got tons of fire resistance, it's quit strong.And while we are on age I'm only 21.
>>37601341Youngling.
>>37601296I've got no idea what in the Hells I'm doing, but why not. Not like I can break it more, right?
>>37601285No.
>>37600939>>37601260Huh, hold on a minute, I thought I got rid of that old nametag.>changes to the correct oneThere we go.>>37601293Last time I had to catch up to it I wasn't able to use any of my spells, it wasn't a fun day.>>37601296I'm not denying its effective, but I think once is enough.
>>37601307>>37601326They remain resolute in their contempt, and have begun defacing the legs of the guild hall.>>37601334Hello, care to help out with this one? Locals are pissed off.
Rolled 17 (1d20)>>37601358>DIIIICE
>>37601355Sorry Soros, not everyone can be older than the gods.
>>37601269Only slightly less recurring than questions about whether I'm a boy or a girl.Damn you Sister Narasee, why'd you have to give me a boy's name.
Rolled 2 (1d20)>>37601367Send out Marco and Polo
>>37601341aw, that's cute. Who let the child in here?
>>37601334True.>>37601341Ha fire resistance is what I do best. I live off of fire. *takes a quaff* Ha this is good.
Rolled 10 (1d20)>>37601367
>>37601367About?>>37601386Not all of them, just the younger ones.>>37601393Why waste the effort?
Rolled 8, 10 = 18 (2d20)>>37601381>opposed roll>>37601388
>>37601396Well, I could try talking to them.*jumps out the window and crashes through the roof of someone's house*
>>37601403I could get demons to do it this is a point.
>>37601461Oh, here we go.
>>37601390My father, Draconis the Red, one of the main ivestors of the guild.>>37601393Glad you like it. Next bottle would be 500 coins.>>37601403Hey Soros who is older you or my father? I know my father is old even for a dragon but I don't know how old that is exactly.
>>37601500Ha a pittance
>>37601476Still a waste of magic. Just Fail em.>>37601500I knew him as a hatchling granted he nearly killed me. I was maybe 40 at the time?
>>37601381They are enamored with the statue, the founder's soul is ecstatic to return to the mortal coil once more. How this statue will cope in a modern world remains to be seen, but for the time being the locals have ceased defacing our guild hall. Meanwhile, in the depths of the tower, it seems a group of overly rebellious apprentices have disregarded their department heads warnings about the dangers of chess, and have started a game!
Rolled 3 (1d20)>>37601367That's it, you have had plenty of time to play around. Let's restore order the old fashioned way. By throwing a small army of skeletons their way until they leave us to our business.
>>37601403>>37601482*the hole in the roof of the house is swarmed in shadows as it repairs itself**James steps back into the meeting hall through a shadow*Well that probably didn't help all that much, even if I fixed it.
>>37601500What the- Since when did we have investors? I thought we were and independent organization that funded itself by stealing from the local people and coercing the kingdom
>>37601367I feel like taking a walk im going to walk down the side of the building towards them that should scare them off*casts false gravity and teleports away
>>37601537That's an awfully small army.
>>37601531This is not going to end well.
>>37601524Failing them is a lot harder than that. However teaching them through pain is worth it.
>>37601531Well, let this be a reminder that there's no problem in this world or any other that can't be solved by hitting it repeatedly with a blunt instrument!
>>37601537No killing random peasants please Lazarus.
>>37601561oh there gone>>37601531What are you talking about conspierre i have had plenty of games of chess whats wrong with it
Rolled 10 (1d20)>>37601537Here, boss, let me help.
yo magic sux
>>37601541What happened? I blink for a second and things get weird.>>37601555Both actually.>>37601596If you say so.>>37601537Behave Lazarus.>>37601617You behave too.
>>37601620your not a very smart man are you anon the most volatile wizards in the land and you come and insult themi call dibs on the corpse
>>37600699If you must know, I was visiting Elizabeth, Crone of Fire Magics, my second teacher.
>>37601620Calm down, we fixed your statue already!We even made it better!>>37601631Remember the old saying look before you leap? I didn't. That house never saw it coming.
Oh hey. Tuypo is back.
>>37601524Story time? My father never talks about the "good old times" only that they were "better" and then he complains about too loud barding.>>37601522I don't drink it. I think it tastes like piss, it probably IS dragon piss for all I know.>>37601555You are independent, father just gives the archwizard crap loads of gold because he really likes the guild, thus his word is valued.
>>37601651When we're done with him there won't be a corpse left.
Rolled 5 (1d20)>>37601620You know what, I'm not in the mood for such prattle tonight.I'm going to try flaying your undying soul in eternal agony.
>>37601665Good for you, learn anything?>>37601667Ok, then. I guess.>>37601674Yup.>>37601679I was a adept wizard adventuring for some rare tomes you dad nearly crushed me when he literally got the jump on me.
Make an apprentice, have a traditional game of wizard chess. And of course, one of them has already summoned a squad of skeleton knights to the fray.
>>37601691Don't murder random peasants please Veilhex. I expect it from Lazarus, but please try not to make my job more difficult. We DID just destroy their statue after all, even if we fixed it.
>>37601708No, just giving her some company, still blames herself for failing to knock some morals and ethics into Ashburn, you know how it is.
>>37601708So you weren't always as powerful as you are now, makes sense I guess. Father always says the older an artifact is the more powerful it's enchantment.
>>37601620I will slaughter you fighter.>>37601631You see to fail you have to lose your soul. But I try to teach them properly because a bunch of different idiots running around spouting off about demonology but know nothing deserve to die.
>>37601713So they're not in fact playing chess but an offshoot of Wizard Battle Chess Card Game Ultra Super Deluxe Romance Bingo 2.0?Better tell them to construct additional pylons...
>>37601733Dammit, I never get to flay anyone's undying souls anymore...
Hey guys. Whats going on in this thread.
So are there any materials any departments are low on im going on one of my round the great wheel trips and may as well pick some stuff up along the way
>>37601744I do. But you can't plant a seed on a stone and expect it to grow.>>37601746Well yeah, otherwise age as well as wear and tear would ruin it.>>37601755Fair enough.>>37601792Death race soon, you can wait.>>37601798Guild Business.
>>37601570Indeed, I think most of it fell apart before hitting the ground. Serves me right for saving all my good skeletons for something more important.>>37601608>>37601631Oh you are no fun.>>37601617Well you at least dared to use an army built on better materials than mine. But I don't think we have anything big enough to keep them off yet.
Alright nerds, let's do this. Those dusty old fucks can't tell us what to do!
>>37601792i know a guy that makes a soul substitute thats just as fun to flay
>>37601798Did I give you that?
>>37601827I'm pretty sure both literally and figuratively most people here can tell you what to do and you will do it, willingly or otherwise.
>Vex reluctantly walks into the hall, instead of her usual dynamic explosion through the floor>She looks very different from usual.Sorry about the delay, everyone.... Something came up.
>>37601824You're still on thin ice remember?
>>37601827Do I need to club you boy?
>>37601815>I do. But you can't plant a seed on a stone and expect it to grow.sure you can you just need to right kind of seed and demiplane
For shame, my students never die in training, but broken noses are another story. I don't understand why most wizards are fo fragile
>>37601885le gasp she is pregnantwhos the father
>>37601885My that was fast.>>37601746Congratulations!>>37601893Not what I meant.
>>37601885Oh my lord, congratulations!
>>37601885*Hearsch has the exact same expression as the image on his face*>>37601904When you're dealing with protoblasmic cells and quasi-radiation pellets its a bit hard NOT to have students die. Sometimes they touch the wrong thing, knock something over, or just die.
>>37601885Hah! It is a good day for me, Fabulous Esteban, to prove my worth in your maze of death! Lead me to the entrance, that I may lead my family's name to victory!
>>37601885Well, fuck. Yo, dragon! You're the only one whose kid it could be, you take responsibility!Now, I'm not too well versed in such things, but Vex, when did this happen?
>>37601917i know that i just like picking apart analogyswhich is odd because i love analogys
>>37601815No wonder father likes you, he loves ancient artifacts.>>37601798What is that thing? Looks a bit like an angel.
>>37601824As long as your definition of fun doesn't involve killing ordinary citizens of the kingdom who haven't signed the apprenticeship waiver, you are free to have as much fun as you want.>>37601885As expected of a half-dragon.
>>37601746Zirconis, can I borrow you for a minute?
>>37601885GOOD LORD IS THAT CONTAGIOUS? DON'T BREATHE ON ME! Clearly this is the foul work of some shadowy cabal of the clerics of the foul one!
>>37601964Sure, what is it?
>>37601904i occasionally have students die but thats because we go on field trips to places to dangerous for them to handle. if they dont come back when i get them rezed i go to the outer planes and torture there souls until they agree to come back
>>37601713Oh, you're going to play that game eh? Well let's see what you think of THIS maneuver.Top that, Mr Bones.Just pretend that the pawns are black.
>>37601970I would prefer if you didn't use shadowy to describe bad things. Also I thoroughly doubt she is contagious.
>>37601885>Drops out of her spell
>>37601986You are dense my friend
>Kicks open door, bleeding from a slash across his head I'm back. Had to say hi to an old freind.

>>37601947Yeah.>>37601952Heh.>>37601970She's pregnant you dunce.>>37602004You ok?
>>37601986>whispering loudlyThe fuck do you think!?I've got a little witch-dragon inside me, and no one ever told me the gestation period would only be a couple of days!
>>37602006You got Vex pregnant during that Fade To Black in the archive last night, you imbecile.Speaking of, I've still got a recording of it, if anyone's making an offer.
>>37601885Will we still have the obstacle course of death, or will that have to be put on hold?>>37601887I know, I know...>sighsSo any chance you could help me locate the soul of Secretus? Ever since he claimed responsibility for making my apprentice kill me I've been wanting to catch that guy and shove him in a skull for the rest of eternity.>>37601957It's limitations like those that led me to the drastic actions I took last meeting you know.
>>37602012[Heal]Welcome back.>>37602036That is dragons for you.
>>37602027The hell is that? Put her in isolation, I don't want to catch that!>>37602036This is the foulest disease I have ever heard of. The cult of the foul one shall be exterminated for this!
>>37602049Wrong person
>>37602036short gestation periods are great i have had wives with short and long pregnancy’s many of them multiple lengths and i can assure you short ones are better
>>37602006I'm a sorcerer duh. I don't need to study stuff. Awesome runs in my blood.>>37602027Pregnant?!>>37602036>Whispers loudly backI have no idea how that happened. I swear!
>>37601933>>37601987Both of you should teach your students some basic defenses then, or better yet let me instruct them!
>>37602077Apologies.>>37602071Why am I the only one who seems to be reacting sanely or normally to this?
>>37602049Nobody buy it!>>37602064Still working on it>>37602071What did you say about my kid?
Once more Talo's shop of totally not illegally obtained rare alchemical supplies and components is opened.Anyone looking for something specific?

>>37602099because you understand the cycle of life and death better than anyone here?
>>37602071I dont think they recovered from the last exterminatus you called down on them sixty-four years ago.>>37602095If you're stupid enough to mix volatile chemical a with volatile chemical b when expressly told NOT TO MIX THOSE CHEMICALS, then you deserve what's going to happen when you mix them.*makes an explosion sound complete with hand gestures*
>>37602064I assumed it was because you hated druids.>>37602088Haven't you ever wondered why there are so many more half dragons than actual dragons?Now you know.
>>37602088Yes, and you're the father, scalebrain!
>>37602064He's slippery but I can try.>>37602071Pregnancy isn't contagious it's making anew being view intercourse.>>37602088Yup, You had sex she got pregnant. Congrats you're a father.
>>37602049>>37601885That progressed that far in the course of a night?that really can't be healthy
>>37602099And what would be an appropriate reaction?>>37602104YOU ATE YOUR CHILD?>>37602064It won't be easy, he's a slippery fuck

>>37602139Wouldn't my child just be a quater-dragon?>>37602147Well I'm okay with that. I will be an awesome father. Just like my dad...Wait I gonna scry at him and tell him he is going to be a grandpa.>>37602148Uh thanks Soros.
>>37602163Look, Half/Quarter Dragon witch children are already something that normally don't happen. I think normal person biology doesn't apply to anyone here.>>37602167Not freaking out and declaring a simple fact of biology a horrible conspiracy?
>>37602099Nope, i'm laughing about it.>>37602167No her child is growing inside her, When it come to term she'll push it out. >>37602182I wouldn't advise it, you'll end up hurt.>>37602163Magically augment growth.>>37602199>Binds of Destiny>>37602212You're welcome.

>>37602148My gods, so that's where the magic goes. Women steal our magic to make apprentices! No wonder I impulsively lead astray all who seek my tutelage! It all makes sense now!
>>37602199I CAST FISTPREPARE FOR COMBAT FELLOW PRACTIONERS
>>37602027yes>>37602182Are you okay!
>>37602167What about the breach of ethics that must have happened, a teacher and a student (student teacher, but still subordinate to a teacher) having sexual relations.

>>37602263oh thats classics talo your comedy shows are the answer to our financial woes
>>37602404I was never told of this rule. Not that I'd follow it anyway.
>>37602396Oh hold on, he signed Antruthius's book? Oh man.....*stifles his laughter*
>>37602389That was personal, not council mandated. Still abusing windmagic I take it Talo?

Not a hard thing to remember.>>37602564I guess congratulations are in order for your unexpected pregnancy. (I think).

>>37602545Fine.>>37602554Calm down. If you try to attack anyone here, you will probably die before you can move.

>>37602593And there are the hormones.Even less friendly than usual, eh, Vex?
>>37602577ok long story short those guys are going to be stuck as animated chess pieces for at least the next few weeks
>>37602593 I GET IT!
>>37602563Actually, yes! Anfarthon says he thinks fondly of the Mages here, though not so much of some of them, or the guild itself. The poor man is still getting used to the idea of emotions, it seems. He neglected to mention where he was, but said he was handling some business with someone named... Houra?

>>37602554Aw, it sounds like someone is cranky because he lost his favorite toy. Now come over here like a good boy and I will go get it for you.>>37602559For the most part, but now he doesn't seem to age or mature, so I have had quite a few apprentices look after him over the years.
>>37602593*Affixes a baleful glare* Really want to try me?>>37602632Details please.
>>37602482......fine

>>37602645The letter is dated, so he must be a fair distance away. He sounded a lot more 'stable' than our last correspondence, though. Hasn't shown any interest in returning, and states that this business with Houra is just him finishing his last duties to the guild.
>>37602661Actually it's Fryia.>>37602645Baby on board, Soros. Ain't got time for your shenanigans.

>>37604198I'm pretty sure I look like a copper slug or nudibranch when I'm not an arm. With lil eyes
>>37604176,1I hear you my child. Our plot is almost complete. Wait, Dramorn. Uhh....ignore that.>>37604142Hmmm. You know, I've known some people who had great success creating contraptions to fire potions at things. Might help you out.
>>37604238[speaks to softy to hear]
>>37604226As long as he acts lawful, we'll have no need to.

>>37604322*Looks at roderick and makes his eyes flare bright ice blue* Roderick calm yourself or you will never make it as an eldritch knight.
>>37604356Welcome back. Please ignore what I said earlier. The world is not yet ready.
>>37604198about time.>Sips it, her mad little face relaxes a bit, so now she just looks annoyed,>>37604238I don't know... this isn't going to hurt is it? Because this body doesn't have modified pain receptors.>>37604250Oh, I can chuck potions just fine. I just prefer to use fleshwarping instead. I just like the idea that the bitchy Fleshwarper who acts like she's the hottest thing ever can't cast spells and is super insecure about it.
>>37604339Vex, what have I told you about trying to hook up apprentices without their knowing?
>>37604360I spend far too much time off of the material. Its beginning to have odd effects on my soul. I am becoming much less human than before. Any idea why this is?
>>37604322Uhg... That's a road best not walked down bud...>>37604378Bleh...what?
>>37604359You've got pinball down fairly well, but I need to get you started on learning some good old fashioned witchcraft.There are a few ways to christen yourself a witch, but the easiest is to steal someone's first kiss. Roderick is a prime candidate.
>>37604286>>37604336you could go there relatively easily, James links the two planes together rather strongly, enough so that the guild's archive room has partially crossed over into the shadow realm from all the time he spends browsing through them
>>37604256You ok?>>37604322*new Male uniform appears*>>37604356Most do.>>37604383Yes It'll hurt like fighting me as the World Eater.
>>37604384It's probably just her hormones.Come to think of it, if she's already that far along after just getting pregnant last night, when is she going to give birth?
>>37604356You're welcome, now don't make dying a habit, I speak from experience when saying it's not a fun road to walk down.
>>37604401that may just be the demonology you are performing although if your spending a lot of time in bytopia you will end up a gnome but i doubt its that
>>37604421... No thanks, I think I'm good at the moment.
>>37604421Th-thank you...>He takes the uniform and swiftly heads off to another nearby room...
>>37604406Oh good. Forget I said anything.>>37604383Suit yourself, I found a magic crossbow a while back and I just love the thing.Fair enough, lupa's probably one of my favorite characters here
>>37604436Don't worry, the dragons are on their way.
>>37604437*Looks at lazarus* I swear your track record, maybe stop pissing off the locals eh?
>>37604410how do I do that?>>37604421>nods
Okay....phew...So first off thanks to all those who got rid of that ass of a godling. Second. What the fuck?! No assist?! Really?!
>>37604455No I spend a lot of time in the hells. Millenia at a time in the hells before coming back here.
>>37604417its interesting that the ghosts are ending up on the plane of shadow rather then the ethereal though but oh well the transitive planes must be a bit funny in this setting
>>37604465Easy. You place your lips on his lips and smooch him!Then you'll obtain your very own Witching Dice! (1d111)

>>37604518Such as demonizing?
>>37604542The two had a fade to black in the archives last night.The ghost whose casket they did it on gave them a fertility curse for... some reason.
>>37604558yeah possibly truth is i never spend much time in 1 plane so i dont really know much about long term effects i will do some research into it
>>37604577BECAUSE HE'S A RIGHT PRICK THATS WHY
>>37604524Look I know you failed the saving throw but you can't die of embarrassment. Now go do what your teacher says!

>>37604540Pierre please, if you must argue with relatives do so in an appropriate voice!>>37604524Don't do anything you don't feel into, dear. We've got codes that prevent forced ships.
Ooof. I'm exhausted. Didn't even know there was a meeting.>>37604524...a pinball witch? That's a new one...
>>37604524Go get him, girl!>>37604540Pierre, Pierre! Secretus isn't here! You're having a nightmare.>>37604542We're having a love child. How are you doing in the FRIENDZONE, anyway?
>>37604577see, THAT is why I never go to the archives. I can't stand those ghosts...

>>37604600Ah, right, that was it.The ghost was a prick.speaking of archives, is this going n sup/tg/?>>37604619You think that's weird? Zirconis got Vex pregnant.
>>37604464Oh those deaths aren't so bad, and far less common than people make it sound like. But when death gets cheap people don't hesitate as much before deciding killing you is an option.>>37604540Hmm? >>37604498,1Ah, well if you are interested I'm probably the only one who would be even remotely likely to help you out Secretus.

>>37604630You know nothing, thief of magic!
>>37604491really though what is the reason for that does the plane of shadow here work differently to a traditional d&d setting?

>>37604577Heh. Knew she had a things for dragons. Looks like it's just a matter how close to a real dragon she can get.>>37604630You made it quite clear you weren't interested. What do you take me for, a child? I'm happy for you! Besides it was truth be told a childish infatuation.What are you going to name the kid?
>>37604670ah i see
>>37604683all things considered, this setting has very little in common with d&d, that and pretty much anything goes
>>37604663You know, I know that feeling. Its nice to never be able to die. Its just painful regenerating whats lost.
>>37604619Hullo Sam, please ignore any intrusive thoughts or phantom voices. Do not remove any daggers from the faces of corpses in the archives.
I've gotta hit the sack, see you all later
>>37604726i do know 2 spells that could make him a dragon if he wantedthey take a long time though
>>37604650That's biology. I'm a geomancer, I don't do biology.Steel on the other hand, I can work with. Never thought about trying something like that though.>>37604703...that's fairly disturbing.>>37604711Ah, my mistake - just seemed odd to be a witch and a wizard at the same time.
>>37604619Hey, Sam, did you want to take part in the Apprentice Deathmaze when I finish it? You get a pass because you're Noel's personal minion, but you can join if you want to.>>37604711Now's a good opportunity for you to turn him into a Manâ„¢. And become a witch. Everybody wins.>>37604726Well, I was hoping you had some good dragony names for us.
>>37604793Blame Vex, the Vile and Wicked Witch who stole Zirconis' magic! And made a baby out of it! That she ate!
>>37604760yeah your right pretty much the only solidified thing is the outer and inner planes everything else is just made up stillalso the difrence between a wizard and a sorcerer
>>37604793Her old body got broken so she's using a new one.>>37604809*whaps Vex with a newspaper* Bad Vex.>>37604822You need to learn biology my friend.
>>37604822Pierre, I swear I haven't eaten any babies this month!
>>37604809You ought to name it Zirilan if it's a male. A strong name, that of a great chieftain of the deserts.If she's female, Sanexa is a fine name this year.
>>37604722N-no! We've been over this before! I ain't afraid of no g-g-g-g-ghost.>>37604793Yeah, well it's not like I want to be in this body. My other one got destroyed by a long lost pet of mine that seems to have forgotten his place. Next time I see him, I'm just going to put him down like the other ones that forget.

>>37605082And here I thought I'd accidentally mixed in some stronger stuff with the pipe-weed. Though i suppose I could still be hallucinating for one reason or another. Though if I AM hallucinating, I'm nut sure why I'd be asking you about it.
>>37605108>NullifyHonestly, tuypo. Behave. And breaking the law is NEVER fun!>>37605093Change them back, Vex. Once you have their consent, then we'll see about you doing that again.
>>37605153C-Can you at least fix my clothes!
>>37605170And the most delicious part is that she can only turn back if she kisses an Eldritch Knight! Or nearest equivalent.
>>37605108*soaks out of niamals body and transforms back
>>37605167*tightens grip* Didn't sound like it to me.>Baleful Polymorph*
>>37605064Neat. I prefer fun over overt skill though.>>37605042Oh! Oh! Hyperious!Teriex!Siligax!Dormagak!And my personal favorite: Glaive.
>>37605197Spellswords count?
>>37605082I AM NOT. YOU KNOW I CAN'T CAST SPELLS, STOP PICKING ON ME!>>37605093>cries a bit and clings to Vex like a small lost child. I like to think that while Lupa did link up her soul and all into this body, that she never quite got around to messing with the brain chemicals, which is why she is being so moody now.
Rolled 4 (1d20)>>37605170Oh, my nametag!>>37605197That sounds exactly like the sort of thing a Witch would do. Regardless, there are few spells so strong that a good Erasure can't clear them!
>>37605213Probably. You're all the same class anyway.
>>37605201*plane shifts the fuck out of here
>>37605197How's about a magus? I used to go by spellsword, but Magus sound more professional
>>37605203Skill is my wine of life.>>37605227*Hitches a ride with tuypo*
>>37605217There there. Everything will be okay.>Consoles you with familial warmth.>>37605195>shrugWell, Roderick's maid outfit should fit you now. Why don't you run along to the other room and get it form him?
>>37605066Yeah. Things get a bit chaotic. One of the reasons why my first paycheck went towards picking up one of these.>hands Jill a silver charm bracelet>>37605195Gotcha covered. *Mending*>>37605197...I'm sure I don't want to hear the answer to this, but WHY?
>>37605259damit i was not expecting that im not where i meant to end up after that unexpected hitchhikeroh well easy fixed come on bastun hop on we are off to the astral realm
>>37605197That's... oddly specific.
>>37605217*Walks over to Lupa* You ok? You didn't finish tinkering with this one did you? Soros has a soft spot for kids, Only reason Vex isn't being in serious pain right now is cause she's pregnant.>>37605294*planar Anchor* Going somewhere?
>>37605275>shuffles off to the room Rod went into>>37605286T-thanks...It's pretty.
>>37605275>>37605203 Unless you would prefer to stray from the chromatic spectrum, specifically the reds.
>>37605294Sounds like a ride. I don't wanna be around when that baleful polymorph ends *grabs on* which part?
>>37605301fuck how did you manage to anchor me after i already left the area

>>37605217Aww, poor thing. You want a->>37605240,1Oh no. Lazarus? LAZARUS?!? JAMES?
>>37605317>He suddenly turns around and covers his stuff with the skirt, blushing brightly and trying to scurry behind the wardrobe while simultaneously remaining rooted in place.
>>37605335Minor Chronomantic metamagic.
>>37605343Huh?
>>37605301*Sniff* ...No, this was my last resort body, so I didn't really put a lot of work into it... So right now my brain is flooded with a ton of hormones and stuff that I usually don't have to deal with... *Sniff* this sucks...>>37605337Go away, kitty, I don't want your help today.
>>37605333well right now stuck in the astral im not sure how he managed to anchor me from afar
>>37605347[speaks to softly to be heard]
>>37605301So I guess you were hoisted by your own petard, then?>>37605325I'd have to assume we'll be making a red baby.
God damn it, I've been waiting for this since newyears and now I'm nearly four hours late.Hello everyone, how is today's meeting progressing?
>>37605335*Looks at tuypo* How fucked are we right now?>>37605354We were trying to
>>37605384[Mutters something that might be a reply]
>>37605380oh well we are in my domain now if he wants to fight he will have a hell of a time no matter how strong he is i live here i advantages here
>>37605380,1*James waves his hand slightly*
>>37605343>looks very pale>>37605372The archives are full of phantasmal killers.
>>37605398Marus! It's been a while. How are you?
>>37605317Being pretty is nice, but being useful is why it's worth having. The charms really come in handy for all the chaos around here.>>37605337Please Quin, don't get involved. This is already ending poorly, I don't want to know how much worse it could get.
>>37605377I'm Sorry shouldn't have sacred you like that. *ruffles hair*>>37605387Yeah he still thought of Lupa as Lupa, not as a kid til she acted like one. Hit him in the feels.>>37605405*rips him out of plane* Too bad about the flimsy walls huh? Now where was I?>>37605402Trying to what?
>>37605398 hey man, most of our threads have been getting banned, someone smarter can explain it better but long story short head to https://archive.moe/tg/thread/37599794/ when this is over
>>37605398Manus you magnificent feathery bastard!Look at your handiwork!>Points at left arm
>>37605402here follow this portal it will take you to my home you will be safe there my family will look after youim going to stay here and prepare for battle
>>37605372NOT YOU DAMNIT WHERE ARE THEY>>37605416Oh thank everything. I can barely manage that spell once a week and he just tosses them out like candy. He's a first age wizard, what the hells were you thinking?>>37605408Oh good.
>>37605404[confusedly mumbles something]
>>37605437lawmagus soros is assaulting me and i prepared only portals today i have nothing but portals and at will plane shift to protect me
>>37605420Vex! I've been alright, hasn't been a meeting in ages though, how have you been?>>37605445Yes?
>>37605387Glaive. The strongest person and the greatest dragon I've ever known.
>>37605446I kinda want a magic brawl, it sounds fun, plus I think I can handle ritual magic support so two vs one sounds fun.
>>37605464[opts for the rare half-mutter half-mumbling, moving the skirt he's holding in front of him...they may be stuck in a loop]
>>37605437*Sniff* It's okay... I wasn't that scared...>>37605398>Waves at Marus, in the body of a small blonde girl.Hi Marus...
>>37605495Lupa!... How did that happen?
>>37605377First you won't give me help and now you won't accept it. You really don't like me do you?>>37605424Well I'm bored. I've been sitting in that corner watching everything for a while, figured I'd get up and lend a hand, heh, or paw as I guess it is.Everything has been going well lately I hope?
>>37605490>raises her voice slightlyWhat are you saying?
>>37605480*flicks Tuypo's forehead* Pedophilia is not ok! *on his way out collapses plane*>>37605495Still I apologize.>>37605512Her old body got blown up.
>>37605489trust me you dont want to get involved every now and again soros decides im a pedophile and tries to kill me he seems able to draw on incredible amounts of power at these times
>>37605540And at pretty much any other time for that matter.
>>37605487It's the mimi- oh hell. Darwin little buddy do your thing. >Darwin unfurls forming eyes and teeth all over before changing back.
>>37605524>So does he."I-I'm going to f-f-finish changing...">Then he turns around and, still naked, grabs the outfit Soros gave him, and starts putting it on.
>>37605536ok now thats just silly you cant just collapse the whole astral plane
>>37605454I was thinking what I'm still thinking; that this is the best challenge I've had in years. In decades even, possibly centuries.
>>37605560yeah but he is usually pretty placid other times
>>37605487Pregnant
>>37605512Some long lost pet came and forgot it's place and killed my other body. And I lost all my other back up bodies in the move so this is all I had left...>>37605523It's more like I know better than to accept your help.
>>37605540*looks around* I see enough elemental magic in the room. I draw energy from the elements and it augments my magical power, so I think I will live.
>>37605567c-can you ppass me your old clothes? my don't r-really fit me any more...
>>37605568Just the pocket of it you were in.
>>37605588I still don't even know if he's the one that made soros fall into the seed of chaos! He is an extremely dangerous man! Ghost! Thing!
>>37605603You want to see some elemental magic comrade?
>>37605603oh shit i better go pick you up*dashes in and grabs bastun then returns
>>37605565Well that's interesting. When did that start happening?Around the time you named it I take it?>>37605598Pregnant? What? Who? What? When?>>37605599I can grow you a new one if you would like, I backed everyone up a while back.
>>37605610the astral plane does not work like that
>>37605636Zirconis. In the Broom Closet. With the Lead Pipe.
>>37605626*Looks at him* sure just know that I am effected by elemental magic adversly
>>37605609>Roderick looks back, and then nods...Th-they don't have underwear...don't kn-know why...sorry...>He passes her the outfit, shoes and all, and puts on his own...then he looks at the list Soros gave him...I should p-p-probably go and g-get these sup-p-pplies Soros w-wanted.
>>37605523Not really. There have been a few...setbacks with the magical girl stuff.I, uh...might have, you know, accidentally overloaded one and it kinda exploded, but not. It's hard to explain.
>>37605658Lead pipe? Wouldn't that you know.. Hurt?
>>37605636He does it on command. He's like parrot. A shapeshitting parrot.
