This thread begins the next segment of the now blatantly obvious Game threads. known to some faggots as the 'gay bath house'
3 weeks have passed in game time, and Port Barry is largely rebuilt and restructured, though evidence of previous battles are still observable in the architecture, walls, etc.
The people have grown stronger, emboldened by the party as their benefactors, and have taken to Football and the message thereof with great zeal.
Any players wishing to join need simply announce themselves and will be beaten included at the earliest ability.

When you say basket hilt, to clarify you dont mean 6 ft Highlander one, right?
>>12460Nah ye bloody wankstain.
You messed wit a friend
>>12460"Thank you," he says at the "mighty fine," kind of regretting it afterwards
"As I said, she's too dangerous to sell even if we didn't need her"
"Where did you get the pistols and where can we get them?"
>>12463No, I mean the basket-hilted broadsword type.
>>12463"Don't get yer kilt in a tangle, it was all good fun. I wasn't gonna keel any o' ye" he mutters something about trade value depreciation.
>>12464"Hah, there're none like 'em. And no, ye can't have 'em. They condense water into frozen bullets. Limited rate of fire, but unlimited ammunition!"
So, wait, did Krak's hand get cut off?
>>12467DAMN IT WHY'D I THROW THEM BACK
>>12466He picks up one pistol, flicks his hand and it disappears, then picks up the other pistol, flicks his hand again and it disappears. The previously floating pirate brings his sword over, which he taps again making it a cane. Despite missing a hand, he still exudes the air of someone who could wreck shop.
"I be needin' a meal after all that. Sechs! Arrange a banquet, and bring me me damned hand!"
>>12467"That's very impressive. I really have seen nothing like it. Would you like to come into the town and see how it's changed…"
>>12471"We shall do so"
Trump's eyes widen as his true intent comes accross
"Would you like to watch a game of Football?"
>>12468yes
Where's his hand?
I can use it to track him down?
>>12475Track down Trump, and you'll find him, because he's next to Trump
[1d20 = 12]>>12476Sleight of hand to conceal severed hand.
>>12476"Very good little pony" Trump says, as he takes the hand from the pony's mouth, and hands it to Krak
"Inferius! Can you reattach this?"
"sorry about that," Trump says to the pirate
>>12469Its better that you did, trust me.
>>12470"Lets eat first, I been away at sea and me men are tired."
>>12476Sechs already retrieved it. Spoiler alert, he's not your opponent.
So in the aftermath of the fight and over a great banquet that the whole town is invited to, Korak tells the party who he is. He's a pirate (obviously) who found his way to this world at the same time Lenos did (previous reboot). After ages of killing and treasurin he found that there wasn't anywhere that welcomed pirates or pirate goods, so he built his own dammit. Port Barry started off a small tent city, but as wealth poured in (mostly from piracy) the city was built into the structure it is today (not including recent renovations). So successful was the city, that the Emperor didn't demand his usual tribute. To maintain relations and cash, Korak built the Cunt (there were previous ships) which is both his ship and the flagship of the port.
>>12481But how did he do the disappeary thingy
I want to knlw
[1d20 = 11]>>12481Take him to the Trump Grille, showing off new architecture along the way, and asking him everything about what is out at water
And also, about that Slovenian pony...
[1d20 = 18]>>12481Make a Track check on Korak anyway (because she's holding a grudge)
>>12483Heal Tracy first.
>>12482I forget the name (something Boots of Wolvenkind or some shit) but they allow one to instant to a flanking position against an enemy, or to an flanking support position of an ally. Since the pirates are all his allies, he could zip out of the fight quickly.
[1d20 = 17]>>12486Cast lay of hand on Tracy
>>12485"Oh yes, we nabbed her off a remote and otherwise uninhabited island. Beautiful place, I got it marked on me map, but even more beautiful was the Unicorn. I couldn't resist mate." He says with a wink "I'll show her to ye in a bit."
>>12483He's way ahead of you. The hand is not fully healed, but it is reattached and working agin.
[1d20 = 12]>>12489Reeeee! I healed her with my lay hands per first
Tracy is back to full. BTW, blackguards don't usually heal, they harm.
>>12487No, with the pistols
Torc teleports back to his cave to read up on dwarfs
>>12488[affectionate pony noises]
>>12489"............." (you were too late)
>>12493They're not artifacts, cuz they're not old enough, but they were clearly made by a genius. In the short time he got a look at them, he was unable to figure out how they work.
>>12492>blackguards don't usually heal, they harm.I was actually asking Infernius for it, but don't blackguards have the spell regardless?
>>12495Ahh
So someome who watches rick and morty?
Plz dont kill, I was joking >>12497If only there were a paladin with lay hands ability around
So ask him what lands around exist that are poorly defended?
>>12498Tracy is still pent up and nonchalantly jams a fork into Torcuil's haggis
I gtg for a while. Torcuil studies until I return
>>12501*adds spoon to go with the fork*
>>12500Carry around pony in his arms, petting her to calm her down. But she's still in extremely close proximity to the pirate guy, who Trump is not letting leave him
>>12496"I don't know what ye mean. Waifu? I'll tell ye, she'll fetch a PRETTY penny to the right buyer!"
>>12497They can yes, but by default their spells are lawful and evil, so it has to be a specific request.
>>12498Unironically, yes. Xp
As Korak continues to dialogue, it becomes apparent that he's been 'allies' with both Thez and Lenos, the latter of whom is invited to join in the festivities. He declines. "Fuck that dude"
>>12499"Not any worth note. Any city or state that is worth lookin at is heavily fortified. The people come from all different planes and worlds, and aren't much for group interactions. Merchants and travelers happen, but by and large the communities keep to themselves, untrusting of newcomers and completely suspicious of other cities."
>>12495Did my Track check succeed?
>>12494>>12491>>12490well i guess i am no longer needed sulks back to the tower.
>>12501>Studies and watches, there won't be fighting>>12502W/ fork and spoon in haggis.
>>12505What were you intending by the track check? You know he arrived on the ship, you've been around him for the duration,... IDK where you're going with that
>>12506"Now hold on Inferius, come back and talk with us! Tell him about you as we learn about him!
... Tell him about the Jews"
>>12506Whoever said that, you're part of the party that the town is more than excited to gush about to Korak and the pirates. The banquet is filled with anecdotes and perspectives of the party's actions, which were both impressive and heroic. Plus he's a minotaur, which is a rarity in its self.
>>12507Idk, i just guess that Tracy would have her eye on him for a while
I can't into RPing...
Tracy looks around for clues about this "Emperor" person.
>>12508the jews? he dosent know about the jews?
The pirates are all dressed in fine clothing, per the dictates of Korak. He's quite particular about appearances (his character was designed well before I got into MLP, but he's quite Rarity when it comes to fashion)
>>12510At the mention of the Emperor, the banquet grows quiet.
"Him. I trust ye've been keeping up on the arrangement?" Korak says to Sechs.
"Um,... well no. In all the commotion and rebuilding we haven't had the manpower to spare. We're,... about a week overdue."
Korak raises an eyebrow.
"Ye know thats not going to do us any good. Do we have the tribute?"
"Uhm, well no. We spent most of the resources rebuilding the town."
"Ye know he's not gonna care a whit about that."
"Yes of course, but we couldn't let the down be in shambles. To be honest, we thought that Mr. Trump and his compatriots might,... free us from him." Sechs says meekly.
>>12512Trump is visibly impressed by the fashion of the Pirates.
"The Unicorn, what is the dowry on her? And as for the fortified cities, know of any way inside? By diplomacy if possible, force if necessary?"
>>12511He doesn't even know about Football
>>12510Carries pony. She'd have a damned fine view of him from his arms
>>12512"Oh, I know about the jews. I've had plenty of business deals, as well as "business deals" with their kind. I'm surprised they made their way this far south, but I'm really not surprised that when they did so they came here. Barry is not the finest of ports in appearance, but there's more loot traveling through 'er than ye can fit on e ship!" he raises his flagon and a cheer erupts around him
>>12513"Flee? Bitch please? We fear nothing. Millions for defense, not one damned dime for tribute"
>>12514>>12515what? he doesn't know about football? has he heard of hitler?
>>12515do you know where they usally reside?
>>12517"I don't believe so. We have much to teach this guest as he has to teach us"
In response to Sechs' comments about the emperor, he breathes a deep sigh. "Well, too late to worry about it. We can expect to hear from him if we don't go to him first. I will decide what will happen on that avenue."
>>12516I said FREE
>>12518"Lad, I been away for 6 mos, I'm still tryin to figure you lot out"
>>12514>[pony-radar mode]Tracy exploits all her detection abilities to turn herself into a hand-held recording device and absorb information.
>>12520>>12519you hear of hitler? pirate man.
Korak details that the emperor is an incredibly powerful sorceror, who somehow managed to tame and control (mostly) the Terrasque. He's fearsome by himself, as is the T, but combined they're virtually unstoppable. He began a campaign of imposing on all the established cities, demanding a tribute of goods, wealth, and (worst-case) lives to satiate his malicious tendencies. He lives atop a chaotic and asymmetrical tower in the north, where he delights in torturing and murdering whoever he feels like.
>>12520"Damn right we bring freedom... Who is this emperor guy exactly?"
>trying to figure you lot out"I'm trying to figure us lot out too"
>>12513>>12523*listens more closely, eyes narrowed*
>>12523"Any idea on how to severe him from the Terrasque?"
Also
"What's the dowry on the Unicorn?"
>>12525he waged a great war against the jews and their puppets, he spoke the truth about them and they turned him into the bad guy for that.
>mfw this thread is ~80% of MLPOLs daily traffic
>>12527"Sever? Ye act like ye're cutting a ship from the docks. He's tremendously powerful, able to create magic with a thought and twist it to his designs. He's far beyond the likes of me, or you for that matter."
At the mention of the Unicorn. "If ye wish to make an offer on her, I'm listenin'"
>>12528"He sounds like a chump then. I don't respect failure, and it sounds like for all his intentions, he failed."
>>12529You again? Quit ur salt.
>>12530"I'm worried about this sorcerer too, little pony. But don't worry. We can kill him and take control of his lands. I mean, we can bring freedom to all the lands"
*pets pony behind the ears*
>>12534*affectionate nuzzling*
I'm glad I had her set that requisition for dimeterium ingots.
>>12531>>12532>>12533I am really bad at Pen and Paper RPGs I fear. I am not hating on your fun, I just wish the rest of the site was a little more active than this right here.
>>12534"Many, MANY have tried. Those who have 've been reduced to ruin. Those who haven't have been forced to abide his terms to survive. The squirrel up in Sparentinar(sp) has some nuts, but he's more concerned with his city, as are the other players. Its kind of a stalemate at this point.
>>12536Most of us had never RP'd before, feel free to play any time.
> I just wish the rest of the site was a little more active than this right here.As do I...
>>12536>wishYou and me both. At the moment, these threads are the best effort I can make toward increasing general interest (whether players or observers). I have lots of ideas, but such ideas take time and methodical planning. In the meantime I hope to entertain. You ARE welcome to join if you like, and the engine is such that accommodates less experienced players.
can I not have a gay flag now btw?
>>12533With regards to the soccerer
"Any weaknesses you are aware of? Any way to counter him save brute force?"
With regards to the unicorn
"Well, I have US citizenship, she might like that. Six months to get a class A immigrant visa, two years to remove conditions, only 3 years until citizenship. Oh I'm sorry, you meant to pay her dowry. Anyone you you want us to kill for you?"
>misses his Heil Hortler flag
>>12533REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>12541"Well, that Lenos fella said that if magic is his strong suit, then anti-magic would be his weakness. The trouble is anti-magic fields are very small in area. It would take a team of mages to make a field large enough to be of any use, and even then you'd have to contend with the Terrasque. Where Kefka lacks in strength and combat, the T fills in the blanks,"
>>12543Oh shush, he's only gotten the briefest description of Hitler. I'm sure he'd be most impressed, as was his faggot when I red-pilled him.
>>12541"We also have a weeaboo horse - I mean, a fine Stallion trained in Ninja-like arts. Pretty courageous in battle. I can show you him in the stables. Would he cover the dowry?"
And for a moment, if just for a moment, all was right with the world.
Ahhhhhhhhhh
>>12544"Any way at all to take him down without facing the full strength of the Terrasque? We intend to kill it, but we are not sure we are strong enough"
>>12544hes directly insulted my faith hes lucky infernuis is a kind bull.
>>12549"Inferius, do you think your marines could make an anti-magic field?"
I have no idea GM
>>12545"I don't know about this 'weeaboo' thing ye mention, but I'll give him a look."
At this point, the banquet dies down a bit, and the pirates and citizens begin a formal (ish) night-time soiree of dancing and merriment. Many (most) are intoxicated, and the celebration of the situation permeates. The Port now has its grand benefactors, as well as its esteemed founder, and everyone is in high spirits.
>>12548"That'd be quite the trick, he rides it like a mount (though its kinda ridiculous, since he's human-sized and its stadium-sized)"
>>12549Not deliberately, he just doesn't know Hitler. He's from Faerun (forgotten realms) and knows nothing of earth-anything.
>>12550No, they're only just grasping the basics of stratgic (formation) combat. As individual combatants, they're level 3.
>>12550Its almost like GM wants the players to complete a sidequest or two in order to have the means to enact such a field.
>>12551"... So, where does this nerd live?"
>>12554He raises an eyebrow at Tracy: "This one, what's yer name? I like you, you're the most rambunctious pony I've ever seen. I'd love to 'ride' ye," he says with a wink.
Seriously, which nerd r you referring to. The emperor? The weeaboo? someone else I missed?
"Ah promise I won't use spurs or bridles,... unless ye like that sorta thing!"
>>12550>>12551"Sounds like we can't take him down yet. Any imminent threat?"
Spoiler, Korak is a lech, a rapist, a slaver, and despite his appearance a most uncouth individual. He looks right and proper though
>>12553>Not just wearing a vest covered in dimerterium shavings.>>12555checked (the sorceror was the nerd)
*glares daggers at dwarf*
"........ (stares for a bit"
"... It's Tracy"
>>12556*Venomous glare*
"I'm engaged."
>>12533he revived a dying country with the best economic polices, he sent all the jews away from his homeland, the people loved him and it took the entire world to stop him from taking over.
>>12555Interrupting
"May I take the unicorn now, and pay the dowry later? Ask anyone around, we always honor contracts"
>>12560Kek. Please make that interrupt his flirting with Tracy
>>12558Trump managed to learn all of that with the alignment check, and then perfectly forget all of it when he saw how well dressed the other pirates were
