/vx/ - Videogames and Paranormal

>>23342
Hopefully not close to the Gems. I still think that conversation got reteconned

I wish we had the chance to fight those Trolls... I was going to paralyze one and tie it to a tree with barbed wire so Tracy could keep cutting off its head and limbs, to farm troll bones.

>>23343
Look, I know you don't like me because of some autistic game involving post numbers or whatever your reason is, but you need to stop acting on spite in the game. It always ends up hurting Inferius, which pisses him off, and then Torcuil sees the three of us arguing, which pisses him off, and then GM sees the four of us arguing and he is pissed off that he has to deal with our autistic drama. Stop keeping secrets in game to spite other characters for things their players do outside of game. If you have complaints about site moderation, or whatever your issue with me is, take it to the /qa/ board.
\r

>>23346
the gm loves our autistic drama though.

>>23350
Aura of butter sounds over powered

I made a meme.

>>23353
good shit.

>>23354
Thank you.
It was edited from the parody of this, if you didn't already see.

>>23345
Ponimaru said a troll village probably exists. I think I'll lead an NPC party to go exterminate them

>>23356
ill be happy to accompany you with some gestapo personnel.

>>23355
i havent seen that.

>>23347
We do need to get experience with our armies in combat

>>23336
The soil has been so rearranged that everthing that is still 'there' is impossible to locate.

>>23356
Idk. I will slaughter trolls, brutally and irrationally cruelly, if they attack, but otherwise I just find them fun to keep around (i find them funny, and cute in a way). I wouldn't just go there just to genocide them, because then there'd be no more trolls, and I'd feel sad.
Trolls are some of my favorite field monsters, in more ways than one.

>>23360
Could it ever be rebuilt into a new hideout? It's basically just gone back to being a cave, right?

>>23360
The placing of the gems was retconned. The gem thing was in response to something Thez said which was in response to something Trumpakadin said. But then when I said "Trumpaladin definitely spends the night with slovenia" the whole intervening set of character interactions got wiped away

>>23361
>doesn't believe in genocide
That's why Inferius and I will be doing it

>>23364
Just don't kill them all. Best to keep a sustainable troll population, for game.

>>23364
this.

>>23362
Sure, and a hideout with cool stuff buried here and there.

>>23368
It was mostly full of raw materials, scavenged metal, and the bones of the local wildlife.

>>23366
Their life cycle is pretty long though..
Oh well..

>>23371
Too much work.
Better just to ignore the one cave they're already breeding in, and let them think their under the radar.

>>23371
>>23370
>>23366
No. Stop. He already saved the Tarrasque from extinction, and I don't think we've benefited from it. Stop trying to make sure this universe is full of more evil enemies than it needs to be. A single troll village that threatens the town logging industry and hikers is destroyed? I promise you, there are more trolls and other always chaotic evil races further away from the people we are trying to protect, if the preservation of evil creatures is what most interests you
\r

>>23372
We can't even collect wood without having trolls try to eat the loggers. No. Fuck that. We need wood
\r

>>23375
There's always shit to fight

You said the cloak and the ring would take a few days? Would they be ready by next session?

Can I get a reminder on the ring and cloak?

>>23378
Cloak of Charisma and Ring of Evasion.

>>23358
That isn't even his final form.

>>23380
does he have over 9000?

>>23381
If your character gets over 9000 Str as a Cancer Mage, he/she can evolve.

>>23379
Thank you. Hmmm. For one, characters are supposed to only be able to work on one item at a time (to completion) . Additionally, aside from post bazaar, Tracy hasn't put much time into either.

>>23383
They're not important.
What about just the ring?

>>23384
Yeah, that's okay

>>23382
I wish i had over 9000 str...
[sad minotuar noises]

>>23385
can i go to the bizzare?

>>23387
Its closed up for the night

>>23388
i try and trak down that ork tribe in the mountains.

>>23386
you have as much strength as the rest of the party combined. Shut up

>>23387
Come craft with Tracy. We could make make more progress together.

>>23390
At night though?

>>23390
Orcs or trolls?
Tracy can track better.

>>23393
The jibberniggers are something I do want to genocide.

>>23393
infernuis is bored.
>>23394
the orks

>>23396
Orks or Orcs?

>>23397
WAGHHHH

>>23397
Those are way beefy for these orcs. These orcs are all skinny and shriveled, like sjws

>>23399
Orcs should be SJWs in this universe.

>>23401
ikr..

>>23398
So, is this an exploration, investigation, or hunting trip?

Tracy never did check out that city beyond the cliff..

>>23403
investigation.

GM, does Slovenia want to start work on the trebuchets immediately, or is she interested in going into town for food first? Also, does she need help?

>>23406
"Food? Yes, food,... that's a good idea," she already has a miniature prototype built, and her mane is slightly disorderly.
>>23405
>>23404
The city Tracy is talking about is in the same general direction as the last point that Infernius got shot at.

>>23407
The ring can wait.
Is there time to check around that area?

>>23408
Time? Sure, it is dark though, that will complicate things.

>>23408
wanna team up?

>>23410
Thez emerges with Torcuil, now mummified, and padded in some areas. "Is something happening?"

>>23409
Take a walk through the forest to Search the area.
>>23410
Sure.
Tracy strolls around through the moonlight instead of sleeping, like a 'normal' criminally insane serial-killer/rapist does. Then she sees Inferius, trying to find his way through the dark.
"What are you doing up at this hour?"

>>23407
"I myself haven't eaten, and I missed ramen earlier when we had to help rescue the loggers. I see you've been pretty busy as well. I'm rather impressed with the model you made. You're going to have to tell me all about it. Would you like to have dinner with me, perhaps in town?" Smiles

>>23411
"we go investigate greenskins."

>>23412
"me try to find way back to green skin camp."

>>23411
"I've been meaning to get a peak at that city past the cliff. I thought it'd be better to go under the cover of dark."

>>23415
"Greenskins? What are those?"

>>23413
"My goodness, I don't think I've eaten anything,... today. I've been so fixated on the trebuchet,... its an amazing marvel of design. Dinner would be nice!"
>>23414
Thez thinks for a moment. "Will there be beatings?"

>>23417
"thing that shoot at me the other night look like a people but it have greenskin."

>>23418
"maybe,if they try anything but me reach out to them and try civilize savages."

>>23419
"That sounds like beatings,... mind if I tag along?"

>>23418
>Will there be beatings
"If anything gets in my way."
>>23419
"You're going to get yourself killed in the dark. I'm headed through the forest, so why don't you follow me?"
>>23421
"Sure. Why not?"

>>23421
"me would be offended if you didnt."

>>23422
"okay that be best me think."

>>23424
THez squees a little. "You guys go on without me, I'll catch up quick, but I wanna try something!"

>>23418
"I'm very glad to see you appreciate the engineering as much as I do. There's something about the terror and the power of the sling and shot that feels geninuneky.,. Glorious, when its let go. I can see already you'll do an excellent job of harnessing that power in all its beauty in the full scale models.

Might you be interested in going to my own restaurant in town, the Trump Grill. We have a wide variety of food options. Yes I know we have the kitchen here, but after all you've been through, and all you've accomplished, you deserve something a little more.. Special. Please, let's go, and tell me all about your plans"

>>23424
"Alright, red guy. Follow me and try not to trip. Let's get moving. I don't have all night."
*leads the way through the dark forest*
>>23425
Tracy gives Thez a quizzical look, but moves forward anyway.

Alright, so they both go into the forest.
Let's start with a he basic Spot Search and Listen checks to scan the area for SJWs and jibberniggers.

>>23425
Trumpaladin goes, retrieves, and offers a brush to Slovenia, if she wants to fix her mane

[3d20 = 31]
>>23428
forgot to roll

>>23430
that crit.

>>23427
"Its nothing bad!" she calls after, as she rushes to her room.
>>23429
"Oh, yes of course. I should probably, thank you. I trust your judgement, I'll only be just a moment," she says stepping away,
>>23430
>20
Hey, there's one now and he hasn't noticed you yet.

>>23432
Tracy doesn't want delays yet. Is there any hope of moving by him while towing a large, clumsy technicolor bull?

>>23433
probably not.

>>23433
Thez pops her head from behind a rock and whispers. "You could follow him."

>>23434
"Hey, fyi. One of those green things you mentioned earlier is up ahead. He hasn't seen us yet, but it'll be inconvenient if he does. Try not to be so loud and let me do my thing. Just walk several spaces behind me, quietly, and we'll follow him back to his nest or whatever."
Tracy can get finicky when it comes to her stalking...

>>23436
"me crouch."

>>23432
>I'll only just be a moment
I know where this is going

>>23438
A few moments later, she appears to have washed up, gotten the bits of wood out of her mane, and straightened it. "I hope I wasn't too long."
>>23436
The orc appears to be gathering wood, and is entirely focused on some contemplation.

>>23437
Tracy, with utmost stealth, furtively stalks the orc back towards whereverthefuck it's going, checking the surrounding area every so often, and signalling to Infernius to come a few steps closer in increments whenever she's determined the coast is clear.
This'll take a while..

[1d20 = 2]
>>23439
~OOOOOOrrr.. we could ignore him and silently move away from him and past him...
Actually, Tracy moves a bit closer to Listen to what he's focused on.

>>23441
Shart...

[2d20 = 17]
>>23441
Its in a completely different language, "Hibbity hooblah" is all she can make out.

Praise Epona

>>23441
"remeber we here in peace if the savages accept our friendship."

>>23446
Thez peeks her head out of a shadow, and flashes hand-signals that somehow convey "But, muh beatings."

>>23443
>tumblrese
"Darn, it's been a while since I've heard this..."
>>23446
"Shut up, bull. Let's keep moving."
*advances towards direction of the city*

>>23447
>has almost gotten used to Thez's shenanigans, but still jumps a bit
"One isn't enough to share. Let's find the pack first."

>>23439
"By no means! You look fantastic, as graceful as the grove I plucked you from this morning. Now, let us waste no more time. Let's go.

I'm assuming you're a vegetarian?"

Trumpajadin walks with Slovebua to the Trump Grill

>>23447
*hand signalizes back*
"if they deny us you can beat them sweetie"

>>23448
*continues crouch walking*

How thick is the forest? Is the City far off?
*advances forward; still on the look-out for SJWs*

The orc finally gathers enough wood and makes its way purposefully. Before long, it comes across
>>23450
"You assume wrong. Rigorous labor requires protein and lots of it."
>>23449
You haven't EVEN seen her shenanigens yet! She lost her spells, so her skills will be much more 'in play'.
>>23451
She doesn't seem to comprehend, but waves it off and sinks back into the shadow.

>>23453
The city is more to the west of your current location. Not terribly far, but a good enough distance that it can't be seen. Also, the forest thickens as you follow the orc.

It comes across an area with dangled ropes and ladders. It loads the wood onto a platform, and then ascends a ladder. The platform raises upward as he ascends.

[3d20 = 15]
>>23456
Spot and Listen checks to sense how many creatures in the vincinity
Search check to get a feel of the top of the platform
"Hmmm.. That's something.."
*signals Infernius to come forward a few paces*

>>23454
Trumpaladin gets an evil grin on his face
"Perfect. We've got the best meat selections. Just the best. Our angus steak is divine. You'll also love our Taco Bowls"

Trumpaladin realizes, to his horror, that Port Barry does not have a proper Barbeque shop
\r

>>23457
Aww shart...
At least he's got +5 on the Listen and Spot checks.
Did she hear anything?

>>23455
>>23454
>>23458
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>23457
I think you misunderstand. The platform is a sort of dumb-waiter, and continues ascending as the orc makes its way up. The tree the orc is climbing appears to have a large permanent platform further up, which the dumb-waiter is leading toward (and attached to).

>>23461
*looks up at the tree*
What's the top look like? Any activity?

Bored. Posting Orc memes.

>>23465
Don't spam the thread just because GM is occupied by work for a few minutes

>>23466
I wish, my computer crashed cuz I had too many things running.
>>23462
The platform is a large central circular shape, with ropes and lines running to other trees and smaller platforms. Though it is entirely uncharacteristic of orcs, these ones seem to live in trees.

>>23466
I like orc memes though. I don't mean any rush; just felt like sharing some.

>>23468
number 3
F

>>23467
Tracy relays the information to Infernius, and asks for what he intended to do once he found the settlement.
>>23469
She had it coming.

>liking the memes even though they probably crashed his shit
Except that these orcs are SJW-types and not mussies, its perfect

>>23470
"bring them into the current year, and civilize them."

>>23469
"It looks like they live up there. Now just what did you intend to do once you found them?"
>>23472
Tracy makes an annoyed look, but restrains herself
"So what are you going to do? Knock on the front door?"

>>23472
Thez appears from a pile of leaves nearby. "Civilize them? Hmmm. I don't know that they can be civilized, but they might make for good manual labor," she says before fwoofing back into the pile of leaves.

>>23474
>>23473
"enslavement does sound nice. we can make them convert too."

>>23475
>slaves
I'm sure you mean fiscally-dependent, uneducated laborers (wage-slaves)

>>23476
they're serfs.

>>23477
Zug-zug

*Tracy's irritation grows*
"So? I found the greens. What comes next? Do you want to get their attention, or should we keep moving?"

How many Tree-houses are there?

>>23471
Trumpaladin and Slovenia arrive at the Trump Grill, where she sees the walls and ceilings are elegant and fancy, but not in such a way that it feels oppressive, like it's forcing you to be equally fancy. One wall looks like it's been hastily repaired though

He orders drinks... what exactly does she want? Trumpaladin gets diet coke.

>>23477
>>23475
I will knock some freaking sense into you when I see you

>>23479
"we comeback when theres more light. me read up on how bits did things."

>>23478
i cant speak orcish.

>>23480
From the ground its impossible to determine how many are houses, but theres several dozen platforms.
>>23481
"Elegant in its simplicity. I approve. I'll have a Mint Julep, thank you."

>>23482
"I didn't come all the way out here for nothing. I'm heading West." (towards the city)

>>23485
"tracy can you find chief orc? and take him prisoner?"

>>23486
*irritated scowl intensifies*
"If I find him on my way, then sure."
Tracy continues further West, intent on investigating the city before dawn.

>>23485
Tracy heads off toward the cannon-lined city. She approaches from a different side than the cannons are pointed at, and there is a large gate at the perimeter.
>>23486
Thez pokes her head out of another, completely different hiding place.
"You want to capture him? Are you sure that's a good idea? Are you sure its a 'him'?"

>>23484
*Trumpaladin wonders to himself "the fuck is a Julep," but makes damn sure the waiter fulfill the order*

"Thank you... sort of like the Trebuchets. I am confident you could bring the same if you were to create the furnishings for some of our other buildings. I want to ask you, what exactly is it you wished to accomplish in your second life, your chance to do it again. You wish to be a master carpenter?"

>>23488
"we need Xir as a bargining chip."

[2d20 = 27]
>>23488
Tracy approaches the gate in stealth.
Search and Spot checks to examine gate and sense for guards.

>>23489
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mint_julep
"I hadn't really thought of that. When I first found myself here, I never really had a chance to stop and think. I've spent all my time responding to the circumstances as they came and doing my best not to flip out. What I want,... thats an interesting question."
>>23491
Light peeks out from the door, but the area is otherwise unilluminated.

[2d20 = 22]
>>23493
Unilluminated, as in no activity, or unilluminated as in Tracy can't see anything past 60 ft?
Tracy approaches closer, walking up to the gate, still stealthing for comfort.

>>23494
Didn't mean to roll.

>>23494
No activity, AND no one is bothering to illuminate the area

>>23496
Tracy walks right up to the gate and inspects it.

Does the Robe of Colors provide for increased stealth at night?

>>23493
>alcohol
I like Trollestia's teatotalling better. But it's a Southern Drink, so that's good

"I felt the same. I wasn't really sure of my purpose here at first. I just wondered around and ran from a certain particular danger. It was when a citizen of this town looked at me, and thanked me - us rather - for killing an oppressor, and asked us to protect them... That was the momement, the precise purpose, that I knew what I was to do. I was to resume my role as protector of nations, same as I tried to fill in my previous life.

You, well I know you've had it difficult so far. I can understand if you are overwhelmed by all of it. Take your time, and feel no pressure."

Time to order food?

>my PC is crashing too
Maybe a fresh loaf of bread is in order..

>>23498
No. In fact, it makes hiding more difficult, even though it conceals what's going on under the robe.
>>23499
"I,... yes,... maybe you're right."
>>23500
And maybe you're right as well. Gimme a sec.

>>23501
>it makes hiding more difficult
I'm glad I asked first.

>>23501
Puts hand on hoof
"You're going to be alright, I will make sure of that"

Orders Taco Bowl!

[1d20 = 5]
[stealthy minotuar noises]

>>23504
Just...

>>23503
"Could I,... have a steak?"
>>23504
>stealthy
>minotaur

>>23504
Cast Silence.

>>23506
Hopefully the waiter will ask this
"How do you want it cooked?"

>>23505
>>23506
>>23507
charges into orc camp screaming "kek kek kek fight me orcs!!"

>>23507
Now you're getting it. Assassin spells aren't quite spells in the conventional sense, they're more the character thinking "Fug, I'd better be extra quiet" or "Oh fuck, I hope they don't see me" or "I must not miss!", etc.
>>23508
He would have of course, I was just allowing Trump to be gentlemanly.
"I'm glad you asked. Rare. Blue-rare, if they'll allow it!"

>>23510
>charges
No, you'll have to climb a rope-ladder. Also you've been quieted.

>>23512
i climb the ladder.

[1d20 = 15]
>>23511

"But of course!"

Order on steak is placed as Blue-rare

Oh for fucks sake. Just set the tree on fire.

That's why you should take their leader out first, and not agitate them so that they all come at you in a group.

Yeah, meaning they'll all get splat if you take them all on. You did want them alive, right?

>>23521

Ask Lenos.

>>23513
Thez> Tee hee
>>23514
>undercooked heresy
You do realize that the more you cook a food, including steak, the more you deplete its vital nutrients? You also realize that the most nutrient-rich food is literally raw?

>>23524
Trump (our president) likes his steak well-done.

>>23525
well-done master race.

>>23524
I don't consider bacteria and parasites to be "essential nutrients"

>>23525
Also this

As Infernius climbs the rope-ladder, he hears a powerful voice rise above the rest:
"Hibbity. Hibbiy and HOOBLAH! Hooblah hibbity, hibbity hooblah! Hibbity hibbity hibbity hibbity. Hibbity hooblah. Hooblah hibbity hooblah, hibbity hibbity hooblah." A silence descends on the orcs.
"Hibbity hooblah?" says a meek voice.
"HOOBLAH!" responds the forceful voice.

>>23525
And this is why I don't fully trust Trump
>>23528
Let me just ask, have you tried steak Tare-tare?

Blue-rare 4 lyfe

i climb down and go see if we have a cage at the tower i can carry.

>>23530
you mean raw ground meat?

That's not safe for human consumption

ketchup is the best condiment for steak.

*Trumpaladin thinks to himself, "well, that's a little weird, but still a hell of a lot less weird than the last girl. And so long as she doesn't try to pin me to a wall this will be a definite improvement"*
