Its that RP thread again! Spectators can shitpost, new players can try it out with little/no investment, and established players need no explanation.

We return as most of the party is either in Sparintenar preparing for a swank banquet - a custom among the Spartans - or speeding towards; except Thez. ;_;

Our newest player Stix is exploring the surrounding forest area, as is his proclivity as a ranger.
Tracy, speeds toward Sparintenar at full speed for some reason unknown to GM at time of OP.
Thez is at the Sticky Wickett, having brought Bones along to have a mostly one-sided conversation, accented occasionally by >doot

Game is temporally not set to fire off at a particular point, but last thread passed 2nd bump so,....

So Stix has the upper hand in escaping the scene. The gibbers are fast, but not as fast as a pony in flight, and before long the sounds of gibbering fades into the surroundings. Stix is currently about 1/2 the distance from Port Barry, on the verge of a path leading to a small village that sits in between several larger cities (incl Port Barry).

The tree from which he fled is actually a particular spot at a crossroads (no actual roads, but theres several places beyond) which the party at large have been to and fro from, and which may turn up again.

Trumpaladin tells the tales of the Denver Broncos for whoever shall gather and listen

"Everypony knows that the Denver Broncos are Football. But what many people don't know is that they are also Baseball, Basketball, Volleyball, and Frisbee Golf, in the sense that all of those sports were kicked repeatedly in the groin by John Fucking Nigger Punching Elway, until the converted and became Football"

"For many people, the Denver Broncos are a source of comfort and inspiration. However, it is important to remember that the Denver Broncos have pure electricity in their pantaloons. If you don't know you'd probably best ask somebody, because John Elway will kick you right in the dick if you're not watching."

He elaborates:
"I've seen it happen, you know. One time, thousands of years ago, when the earth was void and without form, he who Shall Not Be Named was doing non-Football type stuff for the Oakland Raiders, which may or may not have involved licking a frog's hairy dilapidated butthole, when all of a sudden, who should appear but the Almighty One, his Majesty John Elway."

But unlike rocks that suddenly say "fuck you" and attack, and unlike the Spanish Inquisition, do you know what you should always expect? The Denver Broncos. And expect John Elway to be Awesome, because he is the Denver broncos, and he did banish the Oakland Raiders to Isreal where they did displace the Jews in the Babylonian Captivity. And he did play cards with Peytown manning, and after winning the game, created the Universe and the first Football. And he did Cum inside Rainbow Dash from the 30 yardline at Mile High Stadium.

Do you know who is a complete badass at intimidating rocks? John Elway. That's right, when vacationing in Aruba, John Elway was showing some local heathens the superiority of Football when a Rock tried to rob them. Little did it know it was attacking John Motherfucking Elway. Elway kicked the in the nuts so hard it became a football, went back in time and beat Jesse Owens in the 100 meter dash in the 1936 olympics. Rocks don't even have nuts, so that's pretty impressive

The Deity hath responded with the following:

"Badminton is usually referred to by those in the know as the Colorado Rockies of Badminton. When the earth was only ten thousand years old by the reckoning of the moon, Jews came out of its foul depths and created the Anti-Football, which shall henceforth be known as the Oakland Raiders. One of them had a growth upon their neck, that swelled to the size of a basketball, and hence became basketball. It was at that point that a lizard sprang forth, recited the Fifth Incantation, and emerged victorious from the anus of Basketball. This creature was badminton."

On a whim, I am contemplating an AMA-format, where rather than giving vague or enigmatic answers or suggestions, I give direct answers and responses. Anyone interested?
BTW Stix, the Gibbers are really only there for me to irritate players with. There's not much Exp to them, they're like roaches (there's no getting rid of them) and they're a damn nuisance. The dice allowed him to escape, but they can be nasty. Exploration of already-explored areas will result in that sort of thing. Generally in order to explore an area will involve a quest or something that I'll work up, but in the aftermath there's really not much to say for it. Interestingly enough, beyond the tree that Stix found is Trollestia's grove, which I think may have been mentioned, but perhaps another time.

That's neat, but do you know the story of where medicine ball comes from?

In 1836, while attending the international conference on oppressing non-whites and women in Geneva Switzerland, John Elway was demonstrating the pure superiority of the Football. But a Jewish Merchant by the Name of Happy Goldstien was in attendance as well, and he attempted to subvert the meeting by showing his invention: Soccer, which would subject all Whites to slavery and subvert their nations. But John Elway wasn't having any of that shit, so he shoved the soccer ball far up Happy Goldstein's ass. 8 days' later, Happy Goldstien died of constipation, but the Soccer ball became a medicine ball while in the depths of Happy's ass. That medicine ball was given as a gift to Tsar Alexander I, and is currently on display in the Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg

Trumpaladin continues his preaching of the Glory of the Denver Broncos:

"Some people think that potatoes are too starchy for the Denver Broncos, but not me, no siree bob. When I was just a small potato, I would occasionally salt myself and become that entity known to The French as Le Pomme de Terre, and I would cause the cholesterol of my enemies to rise through the buttery menace of my potato hide."

Do you know who is a damned master at grabbing things? Trump fucking Sentry. And he's a master at grabbing horse pussy, with over 200 confirmed pussy grabs. This one time, he encountered Rainbow Dash, and she tried to runaway from him. But he shot her a charming glance so sharp she did fall down prone to him right there. And as he went to grab her pussy his hand met with that of our lord and savior John Elway. And as they held their hands together over the glorious, sacred, and very wet pussy of Rainbow Dash, that is when Trump Sentry did know that Elway was the god for him

To Renquist, to the attendees, and to whomever may listen and not have their ears burnt out by the unadultered Truth, Trumpaladin relates:
"It was in the early afternoon of that Tuesday that I did take my vorpal sword and plunge it deep into the kidneys of several of my enemies, for they are of great enmity to me, and I am sworn of enmity to them. That is why, on the morning of Bastille Day every third year, I make a pilgrimage to the Holy City of Denver, at which point I stab the nearest potato farmer I come across with a fondue fork."

Do you know what the best intoxicant is? It's not alcohol, nor meth, nor marijuana or even horse pussy. No, it's the Denver broncos. Do you know how high you can get with them? Mile High, that's how like, like you're sipping the sweet then air of the holy city of Denver as you kneel prostrate before John Elway himself, who tells you his old glorious war stories, sort of like your grandfather exceot his stories arem't boring but awesome, as you vision starts to display glorious fields of multicolored ponies sort of like LSD except when you touch them, you touch actual horse pussy and not just your neighbor's cat which is frightened out of its wits and scrathes at you and then you have to explain to your coworkers later why you have those scrathes on your face and the best you can say is that you somehow got them while trying to lick the pussy.

So legit off the cuff, here's what I've been thinking. I'm spending WAAAAY too much time on backstories and sculpting "existing" dynamics, and then trying to nudge the party into resolving those dynamics. Not every session needs to an ebin megalythic struggle, or some over-the-top strategem. I'm not exlcuding such thing...
>>56383
kek, one satisfied hamster
... but not every scene needs to have days/weeks worth of scripting and structure behind it. TBH, that recent exchange with Tracy and Birbs v. the random Ogres was lots of fun, and was totally off the cuff. This recent with the bitey-stone is likewise. So basically, while I will present major cataclysmic scenarios, I'm also gonna work on less-dangerous but still-troublesome scenarios for players to contend with.

Trumpaladin figures that he ought to return the hospitality of the Spartans by setting up his own little entertainment venue. Specifically, a game between the Generals and The Spartans taking place on a training field. The Spartans are not fully trained, but it's good to show the ministers and the townspeople that they are learning. None of these people have seen a football game before, so they ought to see one. Serving Doritos and Nachos and Hotdogs and lower quality beer and other essential Football Treats to those in attendance, which would be Spartan leaders, military men, and assorted commoners I guess.

Shit, who was I supposed to look for at the Rusted Duck?
Tracy is wandering through the Port, window-shopping through any shops she hadn't checked out before.

Tracy checks out the mage shop to look for a crystal ball or some other kind of gypsy trinket.

"Fairly steady. Folks been coming this way from the north with increasing frequency. Port Barry seems to have become quite a hotbed of activity."

Oh, I figured I'd try to look for Eric, since Brad's faggot seemed to think it was important.

Examines the climbing gear

“That’s good to hear. Though I’m a bit surprised this is just about the only store I can see around here if that’s the case.”

"In this village, sure. There are plenty of larger places in Port Barry and um,..." he seems to struggle with the names, "The other cities north of here."

A waifish old woman meanders to the counter and looks at Tracy. She then looks around the store and doesn't see anyone else. "You then?" she asks.

does Stix even have money? I just remembered to ask that...

“And if you don’t mind me asking, is there anything in the line of work around here, or should I look in the other towns?”

"You mean like trade-craft? Well theres a good number of folks who have homesteads in the hills and the surrounding area who might take a liking to a fella with some skills. Otherwise there may be communal areas in the cities where one can offer services. I must admit, I'm not sure what you mean."
