Read "Corny Nuts"
Which brings us into the next edition of the Game thread! For newcomers, this is an RP thread thats been ongoing for,... shit, 3 months now. How time flies.
Anywhow, its based on a very loose and permissive rendition of classic D&D 3.5 edition as a baseline, and includes whatever additions can be effectively (and not too ludicrously) included; basically whatever players want that also makes some sense.
The party has just made some character and story developments. Trump and Tracy discover that when their powers combine they form Captain Planet,... or rather, Tracy gets uber-sized and most ferocious.
Infernius and Thez have successfully tracked down and captured a Dark Elf who had been masquerading as the proprietor of the Bazaar (there is no proprietor) who were responsible for jacking all their shit.
What happens next? I have some idea, which probably means its not going to go anywhere near how I expect.
808 replies and 45 files omitted.
>>24949Its more complicated than that, but yeah. Thez didn't know why he was dangerous even if dissected, but theres a reason she said not to untie him
>>24951Has she made it to the Entertron.
>>24950Fascinating
Approach citizen, preferably anyone who looks like a business man
But first: what do the posters say? Inspect poster
>>24952Does the Entertron kill spiders?
>>24955No, but it'll keep her alive long enough to figure out the next step
or produce home-made antivenom.
>>24956Could make her hysterical...
>>24957She's already hysterical.
To Infernius> Yeah you, we've got you guys by the balls. If you don't want to end up sprawled on the ground, bleeding from every orifice and pore, you'll do EXACTLY as We say.
>>24952Sure
>>24954The posters are faded and worn, and clearly allude to a festival/performance that is long since past, but show a purplish figure that seems a little familiar. By the way, Thez has wandered off.
*considers eatng hoers eyeball*
>>24959"ME EAT YOU ALL ALIVE!!!!!!!!"
INTIMIDATION CHECK
>>24959Talk to citizen, looking for one who looks like a businessman
>>24962It finally happened... Inferius rolled a 20
>>24959>healedWhat are the spiders doing?
>>24964He didn't say "healed"...
[5d20 = 51]>>24960Eat it, it grew back in the entertron.
>>24961"Have it your way bub," the squeak replies. (bite bite bite bite bite)
>>24964The ones on you? They're biting, successfully but unsuccessfully.
Aaaaaand Infernius loses consciousness.
>>24968Doesn't necessarily stop enemies from attacking...
>>24966*Transforms*
*kills spookers with fire*
>>24968Intimidation, yes. But you're not dealing with "your average" bunch of spooders.
>>24954Meanwhile
>>24954The posters depict a purple female with wings and a tail, bespeckled with gilt and monies, in a slightly suggestive pose. The writing seems to indicate a long since event.
>>24970>those posters.......
>>24970Oh dear, it's worse than I feared. First, look into the skyline for any buildings that seem more prominent than the others
>>24969Okay, NOW Tracy can be said to be safe from getting knocked the fuck out. Imagine how difficult this would be if Thez HADN'T insisted on not untying him
[1d20 = 16]>>24970>>24970>>24969anger intensifies
*makes sure spooders are kill*
Walks back into room, and lights bull on fire with super-heated hoof*
>>24971>>24972Oh yes.
<whooof> "ITS HERE! They called it something totally different in the last reboot!" Squeek! "I'll be back soon!" Thez quickly spits out before <whoof>
>>24975*away quickly to avoid any spooders, and watches bull burn*
>>24978>>24975>implying i care
>>24974Shush, you're unconscious and dying
>>24977I'm SURE I've explained that at LEAST once
>>24975As Tracy emerges from the infirmary and into the main area, Thez flies into the entry like a bolt, and rolls off the momentum, before springing to her feet.
"HOOOORAYY!" she exclaims, before seeing Tracy (a little pale,... even for Tracy) "Uhm,... something happened didn't it?"
>>24981Look for important appearing building
>>24980I gotta gert rid of the spooders somehow
>>24981>*is standing next to burning bull*".... There was a spider... I think it's gone now though..."
>>24983Infernius is in the vault. This is interjected before Tracy is able to return to him, and takes place in the main hall area.
>spooder"I warned you about those, didn't I? (checks log) Yes! I specifically did!"
she storms off toward the vault, careful to walk on air and not the ground.
>>24987Meta spoilers - So far, assuming no spooders escaped while the vault door was (is) open.
>>24985Tracy follows, levitating with her shoes and flaming hooves
>>24987Unicorns are immune to poison.
>>24982There are several buildings that seem more important than others, but they all seem to pertain to guild halls, churches, and other civic congregational points. Nothing administrative or discretionary appears.
>>24990Walk towards a guild hall, try to find a person to engage
>>24989Thez storms into the vault, slamming the door behind Tracy. "SPOODER! I REALLY don't want to have to,... oh to hell with it. Tracy, set I'nis on fire."
>>24992*gladly obliges, leaving a hoof-shaped brand on his ass*
>>24991"Greetings good sir. You look unfamiliar. Is this your first visit to Sparintenar? Welcome! Can I be of service?" says a smiling fellow, just outside one of the civic centers.
>>24992flowcharts keep going down the current path.
Infernius burns for a minute, Thez picks him up (while burning) and then walks back to the door. She pauses at the entrance, and waits for Tracy to get position behind her. "Ready?"
>>24996"Nope, but just fuck it."
*follows*
>>24994"Hello! I am indeed a stranger to this town. I love the appearance so far. I come from Port Barry, and I believe I might have something to offer this town. Could you tell me about your trade, who runs it, how things have been working, and who I can talk to to make trade deals?"
>>24997The two quickly jump through the door, Thez intent on preventing any spooders from escaping, before stopping on the other side of the closed door. She's agitated and has a little trouble controlling herself. "Don't open the door! At least all his bits are inside the vault, which is warded against any dimensional/transportational interference. There's probably a spooder or two that escaped, so keep on your guard (keep the shoes on). I'll be back," <whooof>
>>25000Waifu thief boops one of his new waifus
Xp
Upon <whooof> Thez drops Infernius in the Entertron, careful to smack any spots that have attached themselves. "Sorry spooder,..." before <whoof>
>>24998"You'd want to check with the Center of Commerce! I'm sure they'll be more than happy to discuss terms of any trade arrangement you wish to look over. That building is right over there," he points.
>>24999>implying you didnt do that already.
"Thez. Why U no say anything when I stayed behind and and explicitly said: 'but I wanna try on his suit'?"
>>25006She didn't know the suit was how he did anything, she just knew that there were spooders. She did say watch out for spooders.
>>25004"Thank you! But before I go, if you don't mind telling me... Do you feel like anything is missing in life? Like there's something you and everyone want, but this city does not have?"
Make note of building to which he points
>>25005True, just solidifying claims with still more digits
>>25006Tracy finds herself booped, from a great distance
>>25003Thez gets booped, from a distance
>>25006... spooder, spooder spooder spooder, blessed by lloth,... er,... spooders,....
I don't want to have to make her explanations unrealistically over the top myah,....
>>25008Oh dear, that technically includes Thez doesn't it. We'll put that on the backburner for now.
>>25010no no let him do it.
Alright. Tracy is outside the vault, hovering over the ground cuz thats safest.
Infernius wakes up in the Entertron.
Trump is still doing his thing in Sparintenar
Thez,... will show up in a few moments.
Still hoping to hear from Sad Alex, Taylor and Norfilly, but not holding my breath on those. The latter appears to have posted but not here (no bully) and the formers are a burgers so who fuggin' knows.
>>25013I can summon Nordfilly if you need to at some point. I can tell you he is asleep right now
>>25008 "The only thing 'missing' is some fine entertainment! We don't really have any time to invest in preparing or developing aesthetics, beyond a momentary suggestion or two, so if you know any entertainers, they'd be most welcome - and profitable - here in Sparintenar!"
>>25015"I see. Thank you!"
Goes to the Chamber of Commerce
Tracy contemplates returning to her eggs, but decides to hear-out what Thez has to say first.
>>25014No worries then, just wondering if he had abandoned the Game. No bully, again, but with increasingly less 'stronk-centered' gameplay, he/she could readily participate without (most) issues.
Trollestia is booped
Slovenia is booped
>>25017Thez whoofed away, but will probably be back soon.
>>25016As Trump is nearing the Chamber of Commerce, Thez comes streaking from the heavens like a bolt to <crash> into the ground near/in-front of him. She shakes off any dazed-ness and hands him a scroll. "I don't have time to explain. Just,... give them this. Insist its genuine." <whoof>
>>25019So many boops,....
>>25020Kek. I'm'a boop you too at some point
>>25021Accepts doubtlessly satanic scroll
"Thank you Thez, but one more thing before you go." Gets close to thez Very close. "Boop"
Goes into Building
>>25023>boop*Earth explodes*
>>25023[Pops out from behind a tree near trump]
"Boop"
>>25025If you go to Sparintar there's amazing opportunities for Entertainers there. They'll love performances
"boop"
>>25024*boops Tracy yet again*
>>25023GM accepts pre-<whooof> boop
>>25025Welcome back! I thought u might be scurred. Where is she anyway? I'd assume the tower, but I'm open to suggestion.
GM steps back a moment as the thread erupts in BOOPs
>>25025>>25027She was said to be performing concerts in the area as default. Couldn't she have gone to Sparitar herself?
>>25029Yes, but those concerts would have been low-effort, local things. Nothing that would involve economic or political maneuvering, just local affairs which would have endeared her to Port Barry. Anything more involved requires player input.
>>25030Yeah, but couldn't she have traveled, is what I'm saying?
>>25023>satanicOh shush, that's the scroll she said "that phrase" to get.
>>25025Thez flies in, crashes against the entry staircase and speeds off saying "Heygoodtoseeyoubutsorrytheresspooders,..."
*goes into workshop to look for gasoline or some other flammable liquid*
>>25032"How would you like to make a damned fine splash at the half-time show of Sparinitar's first big Football Game. Get your own recording contract too. Top 40's hits"
>>25033It's a pop-music recording contract...
>>25032Its a little late for that, he's in a completely different city at this point
>>25031Last time I attempted to emote characters I was quickly rebuked, so without any particular character guidelines I am unwilling to attempt to describe/dictate what characters are doing in the meantime, so no
>>25034Go to Slovenia. I bet you that lovely pony could make a flamethrower if you asked her
\r
>>25035T- top 40 its always been my dream. Just like godess Taylor.
>>25035Yes it is. And this is the city it pertains to. It wasn't called that at the time, so there might be a tad bit of confusion, but the posters (all considered) clearly depict Thez,....
As far as the situation in the Tower. All players are ourside the vault, and are healed from spooders. Thez suggested to be wary of stray spooders, but otherwise the source of spooder is locked in the vault. Players are
mostly safe (sorry Taylor, hope ur not scared of spooders).
>>25037She's a carpenter though... Why not?
"Hey, sister. I don't have very much time to chat, but do you have any gasoline or flamethrowers around here by any chance?"
>>25012hopefully ill drown in here.
Thez speeds up to Tracy. "You didn't let any out did you? Good!" she speeds away. A moment later she speeds up to Infernius' position in the Entertron.
"You, what're you doing in there? You look sad! What's the problem? Oh, you have some spooders on you."
>>25038"Sparintenar is the city of dreams. It's the best place to do it"
>>25039*Still goes into the Chamber of Commerce Building*
>>25041Y U so salty tonight?
>>25043K. There are a variety of different sorts and shapes and sizes operating in various groups and lines, with occasional assortments of booths. There's a large table area that says "Information" at the front.
>>25045Go to Information!
>>25046Like Infernius didn't go to town for over an hour while GM waited for no reason to hear what was going to become of Trump and Tracy,.... btw Thez informed Infernius she likes to have her hands tied by her braid yeah,...
>>25047"Greetings sir, how can I help forward your request." the clerk says slightly monotone.
>>25049"Who may I speak to about a certain... recording contract? I have a scroll in my possession"
>>25048Do you mean last night?
>>25050The clerk sighs. "One moment," walks away and another fellow, approaches.
"Good day to you sir. I understand you wish to negotiate for a record contract. You must undersand these are very slight and not frivilously offered,...."
>>25051Yes, last night, while GM was waiting to see if that whole "holding the sword 4 kill" actually resulted in kill, meanwhile they were humping like bunnies.
Its like having an indescrete room-mate ffs
*double-checks body for spooders*
*Returns to sauna to keep check on the eggs*
>>25053KEK
E
K
>>25052I wish Tracy's Faggot had been up for that. I really wanted to see the response
>>25052"Hello, I wish to speak to you actually about an already existing contract. And then, I wish to speak to you about a brand new opportunity"
>>25052im confused as to what you mean.
>>25054*sits on eggs*
Activate sauna.
>>25044infernuis feels like thez dont love him as much as he loves her. and that makes him really really sad.
>>25056"An existing contract? You're new here so I can't say,..." his jaw drops. "Please wait one moment,...."
>>25057I have Infernius and Thez doing the nasty for a while (A LONG WHILE), while GM (me) waited to see if Trump did something lasting with Korak's sword, which he placed for a kill-shot on Tracy.
*steam rises off of pony*
GM sighs.
Okay. The clerk goes to verify the authenticity of the contract, given that the person presenting it is not anything like anyone previously associated.
Thez is running about like mad, trying to address the spooder situation. She didn't imagine any hurt feels from Infernius, in fact she's still outside the entertron, where he woke up, waiting for a response. Tracy is alive and well, outside the vault (unless she moved), Taylor is wherever, but probably (probably) safe, and,... did I forget anyone? Torcuil is still a coma-mummy.
>>25065Too late, he's a city away. You'll have the chance to join him before too long, don't worry.
*was and is, respectively
>>25063*waits with confidence*
>>25065Shit I'll try to get you a spot
>>25066>unless she movedSee
>>25054 >>25058
>>25063>Korak's sword.Pic related is the story of my life
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Le9sLw2VdUg>>25066It's because I booped Thez...
Tracy picks up her cloak and continues stitching, the rooms temperature rapidly rising.
Thez, outside the Entertron where Infernius is still sitting, waits to hear from him. "I waited as long as I could, but the situation with others demanded my attention! I couldn't let them proceed alone, they'd have gotten all of us killed by now! You're not going to hold it against me for going off,... are you" she said before GM got called away for some BS, the rest to follow
GM is back and Thez continues "I know its probably emasculating for ur (technically Flashy's now) waifu to be stronger, and to have more experience with all manner of RP shenanigens which can rear themselves at a moments notice, but PLEASE understand, I DO love you and I DID keep GM up all night with a variety of descriptions of the positions we were passionately and frivolously getting it on to/in!!"
Meanwhile the clerk returns to Trump. "Sir, I'm a bit taken aback. Is this authentic, as in, can you present something to verify its authenticity? This document is most significant, but raises a number of necessary questions."
In the background, a pair of guards lock the door.
>>25078Thez gets bumped in the head with a super-pigeon. It carries the following note:
"Want to go on a date with one of your partners? There's no better place that the Trump Grill! Try our amazing steaks!"
>>25077>>25078"this isnt about you running off."
>technically Flashy's now
Do the eggs move at all frequently?
>>25081"Oh please, that's just some trips fun!" beat-beat-beat-beat on the Entertron.
>>25082Yes, a bit
>>25081"Then what IS it about?!" you have her attention, unequivocally. Trust me on that, she WANTS to say more, but is waiting.
Sorry Tay, its a little,... complicated. Hopefully it will be resolved soon, where you can be transported to Sparintenar and do a marvelous show in front of countless faire-goers who have never seen nor heard of Taylor Swift, but who are most entranced by her style and performance
So, where are the characters that are in the tower atm? Tracy is in the stables sitting on her eggs.
>>25083"you think meme magic is a joke?"
>>25086'Tis true
>>25084GM, can Slovenia be wooed by digits?
>>25086Torquil is the meme mage though.
If I could do it, I'd be dropping memes 24/7.
>>25086You cut my Tracy's ear off though... And plucked her eye
>>25085Infernius is in the Entertron, Taylor is probably in the main area
wondering wtf is going on no doubt, Torcuil is still in a coma, Trump is in Sparintenar, Tracy is as described, and Thez is frantically pressed against said Entertron.
>>25086"Frivilously applied, yes! Its the magic of the individual that makes memes have any potential or significance! You think recurring digits could in some way sway me from you? You think that a quick post from some faggot could undo the feeling of someone
else carrying my unconscious form after I'd exhausted myself - not once but
twice?" yeah, she's crying again,.... "I don't contest that there is a degree of magic to memes and such significant circumstances," she wipes tears away "But if you thnk that I'll let some FAGGOTS on an anon-board dictate reality to me,... you don't know the first thing do you?"
>>25089she un did all my hard work.
>>25091Not all, you forget there's a booth for fixing broken peoples.
>>25091She deserved it, but she's
my waifu to physically beat
>>25090Protest all you want Thez, it can't un-boop you
>>25091>undidWhat progress was that, exactly?
We'll just resurrect him.
We made a body cast, so we can keep killing him over and over and he'll stay in one piece.
>>25093Please don't make this a meta-argument, that would be bad
>>25093>asking to get booped by ThezYou'll rue the day you taunted her...
>>25094Also this. Thez made up for Tracy's fuckery
>>25095Only if you tell me who comes to see Trumpaladin as the contract is verified
>>25096I am not asking to get booped. Thez is the one who got booped. And you got booped too, by a sword this morning
>>25097<rumbling sounds can somehow be heard>Don't worry, you'll get your answer in a moment. For the moment however, your response is delayed.
>>25098Booping is like >rape: the only way to unboop yourself is to boop your booper.
Thez still waits, patiently, for Infernius' response,... even though her record contract (THE record contract) is being negotiated in her absence.
>>25102Wait... it hasn't been negotiated yet? I thought the terms had been set
Oh shit
\r
>>25098Stout guard surround and place their hands on Trump.
"Sir, you've presented some outlandish documents. While apparently valid, there are inconsistencies that cannot be ignored. We're going to have to ask you to come with us." The guards behind nudge him forward.
>>25090"look im sorry i just feel betrayed about what happen the other night. me still love you but if he does that enough me dont know what could happen to reality but me do know i love you with all me heart."
*climbs out and holds ana close to me and dries her tears*
"will you marry infernuis?"
>>25104"But of course"
>>25103>>25102NOW I am afraid of Thez
>>25105Awww...
>>25105"Of course. OF COURSE! I've been waiting for you to say it, even though I made you wear a ring of mine. A thousand times and a thousand years, of course!" she breaks down crying, nestled in his arms, because even her brecious recording contract is second fiddle. Tidbit, the recording contract
was her most prized possession.
Meanwhile, Trump is being escorted to a secure room.
I so didn't plan any of this!Tracy meanwhile warms her eggs, watchful for 'animated spots'.
Infernius is busy, as is Thez, so the story involves Trump, as well as Tracy who wishes to respond.
>she finds a curious note taped to her, that says "Trump is in trouble, needs a show-person. R u game? Take Fae, IDK why he didn't. - T"
Excuse me, I meant to say Taylor (too many T names!)
That was definitively for Taylor
>>25101Um... just in case, please be ready
Hoping Taylor wasn't scared off
*Hums, still watching the eggs*
>>25112"He's probably gotten himself into some shit again, be ready," Fae offers as she flies off. It isn't long before Taylor touches down outside Sparintenar. The guards are most welcoming to a lovely young woman such as her, without even asking her purpose or reason for entering. She can immediately discern there is a gathering of guards around the center of commerce, but otherwise (aside from some Thez posters,... she's better at reading posters than Trump) there appears no immediate impetus.
>>25114I continue towards the guards.
>>25114To one of the guards in his vicinity inside of the building
"Is there an issue?"
>>25116My client,have you seen him?
>>25116"Please step forward sir, your documents are highly suspect, and you're being detained until furher notice"
you get it? fuhrer notice?>>25117"You have a client? You look like a main attaction to me!" Laughter erupts from the guards assembled.
>>25118Aw thats sweet of y'all to say. But have you seen a man in gold armor?
>>25113>>25118>>25113>>25113"Alright then"
CALL MOUNT - TRACY CAGE
>>25119"You don't mean the guy inside? Hold on a minute."
He disappears.
From inside
>>25116"Hold on a second!" calls a guard from the other end of the building. "There's a hawt chick at the entrance who describes a guy just like him. Maybe we should check him out before,... you know."
>>25113Tracy feels a compelling voice calling to her from a distance. She can perceive the distance, and fixate on the location. Its that way.
>>25120>>25122Okay then.
*gets up, eyes blank*
".. I have to go.." She says in a monotone
*steps out of the stables, immediately transforms, and flies off as a dashing blue bolt*
>>25123Did not mean to shitpost so ironically there.. Was picking stuff out of my Taylor folder.
It's perfect though.
>>25125
meh
*is blazing towards the city*
>>25123>>25124>>25125Topest of keks.
>>25123She's not compelled, but she is called.
>>25124Oh fug, its been you the whole time hasn't it?
>>25127Hoping nevermind.
So is Taylor negotiating with the guards, or is Tracy's faggot playing 2 characters?
>>25126*cough* You can teleport through the Etheral Plane *cough*
>>25128Im negotiationing for you fagoot.
>>25130>>25128Oops thought you were trump.
>>25131So the guards holding Trump are stalled, while Taylor (outside) pleads her case.
GM thinks its time for an impromptu meme-song performance,... its not required but it would make the scene nicely
[1d20 = 4]>>25129>teleportCan she do that?
*teleports behind you*
"You called?"
Rolling Intimidate (+21 in this form) to scare the ever-living piss out of everyone around, with a sudden appearance with smoke and fire.>Monotone, but with a monster's voice"Now, just what are all you little dorks doing with my husband?"
Meanwhile, Thez continues to bawl and sniffle, while Infernius pretends to neither bawl and sniffle, Tracy sits atop eggs, Torcuil is still in a coma, and Trump waits to see if his anal cavity is violated.
>>25133NO teleport. Good show, but it will take Tracy a minimum of 4 rounds to arrive on scene, assuming she doesn't need any direction (which she would).
>>25132Look if you let my friend go ill put on a free concert for the city. Heres a simple song.
https://youtu.be/3tmd-ClpJxA
>>25133>directionScratch that, just 4 rounds
>>25133For the first time perhaps ever, Trumpaladin is not startled in the least
*mounts Tracy*
To Guards: "She came for me. This fine mare right here is my performer. Does a Damned fine rendition of "Ghost Rider's in the Sky"
To Tracy:
"Situation's fucked. Thez gave me a bad contract, or maybe the Guards mistakenly believed that I was representing myself as Thez. I have no idea. All I can say, is mission failed, and get me the fuck out of here. Use your etheralness, your smoke, your smoke bombs, let be use your smoke cane, whatever, just get me the fuck out of here"
>>25134Use ether and skills to make it seem as though she appeared out of nowhere.
>>25137WHOA now, Tracy DOESN'T show up. Tracy is en route, but don't get ahead of yourself. Taylor is pleading your case at the moment.
>>25139I know my move regardless. I prepared for this contingency
Tracy moves at more than twice Fae's speed, and can move at three times that speed momentarily. Why didn't it take Fae four rounds?
>>25139Unless the guards are willing to talk
>>25139>>25142"Now hol' up. hol' up. What kind of inconsistencies?"
>>25140Oh you did?
In response to Taylor's impromptu performance (not sure how she did the narrative bit at the end but kek) they're completely sold. "Please, forgive us for doubting! Let us usher you inside!"
At the same time, Tracy comes crashing through one of the windows of the building, before anyone can respond. As Taylor is brought forward, and Tracy shuffles off debris and broken glass,... scene:
(whoever, do ur thing)
Way too much like that time I was detained at the Federal Courthouse in Dallas...
>>25141It didn't take Fae 4 rounds, it took Thez 4 rounds, and only cuz Trump's armor is heavy as fug
>>25144Im not the only t swift you know back on erde we discovered multiverse travel.
>>25144"All part of the show, folks!"
>>25148Ah yes tracy. Come here.
>>25148The counter guy gives Trump a look.
Guards move to restrict both Taylor and Tracy, not sure whats going on.
>>25150Chill out guys shes my horse.
>>25149At this, the guards form a sort of perimeter, neither detaining nor obstructing Taylor or Tracy.
please continue
