Its always some level of nuts in this thread, and this moment does not disappoint.
All kinds of things have happened, the result of which is that with over a week passing in meat-space the party is still right where they left off at.
Tracy is venturing to the mountains with her floofy-faced, hutungous birbs in an oversided wagon, hoping to give them a chance to have a moment with their biological father.
Trump, for some reason, is quite butt-hurt by this. What? Its true,....
Thez is enjoying the first decent night's sleep in over a week, Infernius contemplates (((genocide))) (does it work in that context? I mean he's contemplating their genocide of course), and Torcuil learns that Death is a pretty cool chick with a morbid sense of humor in an absurd job that you wouldn't think is a job, but its literally a job. So yeah, next time he wants to hit her up, just blow ur brains out or something.
Last thread got to over 1800 posts <trumpet fanfare> but that shit is impossible on mobile and cumbersome at best otherwise so,....

>>54131“I definitely didn’t mean for it to sound like I was planning to hit on her. Sorry about that. I will keep that in mind and ask her about these foresters.”
>>54132“And this pony is around this area?”
Where are the characters atm?
>>54134"We don't know where she is at the moment. She was scared off it seemed after a conflict a party member. The last we knew of her she was prancing through thick forest - hard to say where. I do know there is a grove that at least used to be her central location"
>>54135Talking to each other while GM is busy
>>54135Mine is with yours of course, but I think theirs are on a airship, if I remember correctly.
>>54137I had Tracy leave off to the forest to investigate the disappearances, I figured yours was on his way to Sparta.
>>54139We could just say they are ready to do whatever and thus are away from each other, but it's a lot more fun and productive to have the characters talk to each other since we can't investigate or approach sparta or what have you while GM is busy
>>54141Yeah, but I'd like to know who's present, because my character may behave differently around others.
>>54142Uh... well, in that case, I think Stix, Infernius, Trumpaladin, and Tracy are together
>>54143He's not going to Sparta?
>>54145Tracy is going into the woods to put a knife through something. She let Stix tag along, because she said he was a huntsman, but she wouldn't force him if he stayed back at the tower.
Either way, it's getting pretty late, so Tracy's faggot might just turn in.
>>54146>>54092Yeah, Stix is with Tracy.
And goodnight.
>>54148I believe so too.
>>54068 was one of the last ones he posted.
>>54149Does Stix have a response to Trumpaladin's statement in
>>54137 or does he just leave it at that?
>>54150Sorry, must have missed that one.
>>54137I would definitely like to know where is grove is, and if you want to talk about it, the fight that happened.
>>54151"The grove where she used to stay was over in that direction" Trumpaladin points into the forest that is near the tower in a specific direction.
Please assume for the sake of the scene that the characters happened to meet each other at the one ground level exit/entrance to the tower as Stix and Tracy were heading to the mill, Torcuil and Trumpaladin are heading outside to the airship, while infernius is back"It's a grove over there, a meadow, with a small stream and a large tree. It will be charred in many places. In fact, tracking the fire damage may be the simplest way to distinguish it. I do not know if she will be there or if she is elsewhere. I can say for sure that she doesn't come out out for everyone. She may though for you.
She is a Celestial Charger, a celestial Unicorn gaurdian of the forest. Very powerful.
Very Beautiful. She has two proclivities that dominate her behavior. To ease the suffering of other beings, whatever they may be. And to sow the seeds of discord and enjoy the show. It was when she was satisfying her lust for choas that she made the mistake of humiliating our Tracy Cage. And Tracy went after her for it. She tried several times to kill her, although all she got for it was more embarrassment. The unicorn guardian got away. She is called... Trollestia. She also managed to piss off Torcuil, even though she took a liking to the magician"
\r
>>54153“Very interesting. I will definitely check that out when I come back. She seems like a paradox. She wants to help others, yet cause strife. Can’t wait to see how that goes.”
>>54155"Yeah, I noticed. 'Choatic Good.' Humpf! Hasn't worked out terribly well for myself or Tracy. Torcuil could have had a better time as well"
>>54156“If she hasn’t been much help to you guys, how do you think I will fair with her?”
>>54157"She is the physical incarnation of the adage "be careful what you wish for." Approach her only with good intentions, appeal to her sense of compassion, and you will do well. She helped me to find a pony secluded in the forest before. But be careful of what you approach her for. She just might give you
exactly what you asked.
There are none who know at least this forest better though, that I can tell you. A superb tracker and child of nature - a wild spirit"
>>54158“Plan out what I say and do and only for good, got it.”
>>54159"Also, don't murder innocent NPCs before going to her. Don't try to assassinate her sneakily. And if you want to use her to home-invasion-rob someone be thoughtful of how those people might respond to being robbed. And for the love of God,
don't try to have sex with her. Because if you do those things, you're gonna have a bad time. Or a good time, followed by the logical consequences of your actions."
>>54160“Don’t worry, plus I will ask for advice from the others if you think they will be willing to give some.”
>>54161"From the others? Do you mean party members? Tracy certainly isn't over her grudge against Trollestia. She'll try to kill her" *laughs* "Good luck to her on that"
>>54162“But besides all that, you think Trollestia will come out for me? Why is that? What makes me special?”
>>54153>>54156>>54158>>54160>>54162He's not saying this while Tracy's around, right?
>>54163"Well, you aren't going to her with the intention to kill her or burn her grove down until she comes out - I think. That makes you a more desirable appointment to keep than her last visitor to the grove. I guess the two of you like animals and like the forest. You like doing good and keeping evil at bay. That will get you far. She took a definite liking to the mage... He just didn't like her back, after she embarrassed him one time, he was done with her. Not a wise decision I think. She has incredible levels of power and knowledge. Quality waifu material as well"
>>54164He's definitely stupid enough to say that stuff in her presence, but at least the later posts were sort of written under the assumption she had slipped away or moved further ahead or something. So I don't know
\r
>>54166“Not sure why I would want to hurt her. Maybe I will find out why later, but she seems nice enough. I just got to keep us both in control. What chance do you think I have in getting her help?”
>>54168Welcome back. Although, I’m not sure how much longer I can stay wake as well...
>>54167"Well, as I said before, her motivations are relieving the suffering of others, and sowing discord. If your request fulfills one or both of those, she'll grant it. If not, then she will not. I'm not sure about a request for Training. The mage wanted to be trained to be a ranger, but he never went through with it. Just don't try to seduce her or kill her as soon as you see her and you'll do better than we did."
>>54170“Alright. I will see what I can do when I get back.”
>>54171So Styx is heading out to meet Trollestia?
>>54172Thez is there, groggily stretching and having just woke up from a nap.
>>54168And Trumpaladin is on his way to Sparintenar in the airship, along with the Generals, Fae, and all of the Spartan Auxilaries
>>54174Thez wonders how she managed to sleep through all these people coming on board without waking up. Does that mean that they left Infernius behind, or did he go with them?
>>54173"Thez hurry up we leaveing for gnome city."
>>54174Hold on faggot
>>54175I guess it's everyone there except for Tracy and Stix. Thez should probably stay in town though
>>54177Yea
"Thez please watch town and ready men in case anything happens"
At what point was Brad talking to Stix about all that? Tracy's reactions may depend on the circumstances.
Also, I just figured out that Infernius could probably be polymorphed permanently if he wanted moar Str and less Int. With Polymorph Any Object, less-drastic changes are permanent, especially since a Minotaur has less Int than a half-orc, and Infernius already looks like a Minotaur.
>>53967*suppressed urge to write-up autistic backstory for Mr. Bones*
>>54184>>54185Mr. Bones, previously, was a lvl 36 Demilich Bard, and the leader of the Undead Death Metal Band,
Los Huesos Vibrantes for 666 years. In his time, he was infamous for his terrific skill in Sonic and fear-based magick, especially with his Greater Doot. He was summoned (illegally) across the extra-dimensional border from from the realm of the dead by a powerful Thaumaturgist in the Imperial Court City in the last attack on the Port, and would've made a significant difference in the last battle by inspiring all of the skeleton into dance,
had he not rolled a fucking 1 in his Perform check at the start of the battle. As he was preparing to annihilate the entire stadium at once with a maximized Sympathetic Vibration, his Horn of blasting exploded, causing him to lose all of his magick gems, and thus his power and memories. He was reduced to a mindless skeleton, and wandered the back alleys of Port Barry, until Tracy found him and took him home on a whim. To this day, he haunts the tower as a humble butler and housekeeper. He cannot speak, he can only doot.
Just made that up on the fly. I know it's kind of corny.
