This thread continues the ongoing RP/Shitposting game. Its based on D&D 3.5e core rules with exceptions made for just about anything. Its essentially a play-by-shitpost RPG with structural additions. Games get hairy on Saturdays, but weekends in general; weekdays are for meta and shitposting.
Most pressing of the situations is that involving Infernius, Trump, and Tracy; the former finds himself being surrounded by robots, while flying robots seem to have cut off his escape. As nimble as Uatchit is, his situation doesn't look good. Trump has fled outside the Cardashil wall, and his pursuit disengaged to secure the perimeter of the city. In short, Cardashil is now a Panopticon. Meanwhile, Tracy - er, a praying mantis who is clearly identifiable as Frank (or any of 3 other identities) - is amongst a throng headed for the teleportation gates along the perimeter of the park area.
Oh yes, and those grenades. One of the robots has char marks and scraping on it.
Meanwhile Stix, Torcuil, Snek, and Thez are having an otherwise constructive conversation in the Tower.

>>60736TF meant the location near where Trumpaladin is
>>60736>MantisI had her change to a leprechaun a while ago (thus the irish stereotypes).
Is the hole they originally went through at ground level or in the roof?
>>60738Noted
>still sees her as a mantis>>60738Its at ground level, I misinterpreted which hole
kek you meant
>>60737My bad, thought the roof
[1d20 = 7]
Tracy dives through the hole in the dome and tackles Brad affectionately at full speed.
Spirited Bull Rush
>>60740Again, though there is an observable overhead presence that is constantly observing, none of the bots seem to care.
Almost like, if you have an ID they DGAF, but if you don't they cook you.
>>60741You can roll an opposed Strength check if you give a fuck.
She's bigger tho.
[1d20 = 14]
Reflex save on Pony
Or Strength check, I have no idea
>>60745Huzzah! He might have been not tackled
>>60745>tfw two size categories bigger than uTracy wins!
Brad is lovingly knocked back 5 ft.
>>60746He side-stepped, if that's his desired outcome
Reeee! It's a bull rush, not an overrun!
>>60747"Pony, what happened? Where is Infernius?"
>>60747>>60748Kek
>>60753"There was nothing I could do. Couldn't even sweep him up because of all of those mailboxes..."
[1d20 = 4]>>60754"Then Let's go in to sweep him up"
Rolling to mount horsey
>>60755Not sure if horse is mounted or mounted by horse
Now then. While Infernius is Well, he is not technically kill. This is evident by the fact that he's not waking up in the entertron still hungry. Instead, his remains are being collected by waste removal bots.
Tracy successfully reunites with Trump, replete with +3 IDs for full access
[1d20+21 = 40]
"Let me change your disguise."
Sleight of Hand to slip a card in Brad's pocket.
>>60758"Are we going to get him or not?"
>>60761Directs horse to go to where ever the remain are, having more faith in speed than in stealth
Tracy throws some dust in Fae's face that makes her look like a giant goldfish with tarantuala legs, despite having no intention of bringing her along.
>>60762Tracy does this, while ethereal.
The Mantis pastor and Bridget were actually characters I made up in my old creative writing class btw.
>>60763>Fae is now a goldfish with tarantula legsAs Tracy and Trump return to the scene, unmolested by flsmr cuz IDs, they find that what remains of Infernius is being loaded onto a trolley, by a grip of bots with specialized nozzles
>>60765[lurking ghost-pony noises]
Tracy follows.
I need to break something. Not in game, but in real life. Like really break something.
I remember an episode of Deadliest Catch, season 2, that I watched many years ago where a guy gets pissed off, throws a large plastic tray in the water an starts shooting at it with an assault rifle. I really envy that guy
Screams. But there's no one to hear his screams
>>60774Its my fault, I thought for a moment that I was sociable
>>60777No problem, m8. Do what you need to do.
*throws glitter in Brad's face*
>>60785Pocket sand... er, glitter!
>>60785Btw, Brad's disguise is now that of an orangutan named Clyde.
>>60787Tracy's disguise shifts into that of a huge construct that resembles a monster truck.
>>60787Mind that the dust that originally changed Brad's appearance still hasn't worn off, so he's currently disguised as an ostrich disguised as an orangutan named Clyde.
This is relevant because if anyone were looking for an ostrich (which some factions probably are), they would recognize the ostrich beneath the orangutan illusion. He could use the hat to solidify the illusion tho, and still roll for a Charisma-based disguised check.
*polishes lucky horseshoe*
*checks to see if mimic is still alive, and feeds it a pastrami sandwich from a zip-lock bag*
>>60795[sad/confused pony noises]
>>60797>>60799*sighs, then looks ahead*
>>60801"In the crowd." Revs the monster truck
I'm here, I'm just having trouble getting going today
>>60804I've been there before...
Rake all the time you need.
>>60804I'm going, but the problem is I'm pic related... which is me all the time.
Also I'll be on mobile the whole day
>>60809I think it is the irritation inside behind the frozen outside
*rolls towards mailboxes sweeping up Infernius*
>>60812A shazbot positions its self in between Tracy and the scene.
"ALL OF YOU PLEASE STAY BACK FOR YOUR SAFETY." The bot monotones.
[1d20+6 = 10]>>60813"~Vrooooooooooom Vrooooooooom!"
Diplomacy check to convince the wheel-lets to stand aside while a real machine handles the cleanup.
I'm that bored.. >>60814Nevertheless, Tracy stands back and observes the machine loading Infernius's remains.
>>60815How many clean-up bots are there? Are they the same model as the other bots?
>>60814The shazbot seems unimpressed. "THE FOUR OF YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED."
Speaking of which, all of Tracy's IDs emit notification pings.
>>60816No, they're different than the shazbots.
>>60817Tracy realizes she's being an idiot, and moves away from the center of action and parks herself in an alley as she considers her next course of action.
She checks Gorplemonger's ID-thingy.
>>60818She also takes note that the bot was able to detect the IDs in her back, and stops to consider that carrying extra IDs might reveal her in the presence of non-robot creatures.
>>60820"Um, ugh.." Tracy trails off, not deciding against attempting to conceal her stolen electronics.
The IDs display a lengthy explanation of the incident moments ago. It claims that Infernius and Trump were participants of the Arena level who had managed to reach the city level. It also makes an additional reminder to keep one's ID on themselves at all times, as there were several participants who had neglected to do so, offering meager condolences to anyone who may have known whomever it was.
>>60823Does it show any indication of knowing exactly who it was that failed to keep their IDs with them (important, because I was intending to potentially assume their identities later on)?
>It claims that Infernius and TrumpDoes it mention them by name, or does it mention 'some red cow and an ostrich?'
"Arena level..? I wonder what that could be..." Tracy ponders, trying to wrap her head around the scope of the dome's security communications
>>60824"I'm not entirely sure.." Tracy says, fidgeting with Gorplemonger's device.
"Whatever it is, it has some kind of news message on it: it looks like the whole city knows we're here."
>>60826"Well where did you get them and why?"
>>60825No. Frank, Otto, Alfonso, and ??? were all quite squishy and were reduced to ash quite readily, due to their clothing, as well as whatever cosmetics and/or hair-products they may have been using. I didn't really come up with a back-story for them, I was hoping I could shirk that. In any case, they were beyond identification by the administration.
>>60826That's an inaccurate statement
Tracy backs further into the alley, making sure she's out of sight from the crowd.
>>60829Tracy is only as clever as her faggot, so she's still on alert, considering the possibility that other residents might be aware of their break in.
I didn't really care to use their disguises, it was just a fallback idea.
>>60830"Will you promise me you won't be mad?"
>>60831"No. Now what is it pony?"
>>60831I assume that Tracy gave Trump one of the IDs, cuz I can't think why he wouldn't be getting set on fire. In that event, Trump's ID displays the same information.
>>60832*tosses him off of her back and sits on him*
"It's some kind of ID card. I'm not really sure how it works, but it seems like the robots will believe you're one of the residents while you're carrying it, as far as can tell."
>>60833Tracy slipped one in his pocket without him knowing, but it would've binged by now to alert him of it.
>>60834I'm guessing Trumpaladin would finally notice the ID in his pocket, so he pulls it out
"How did this get there?
So these IDs... Why do you have 3 of them?"
>>60835*smushing intensifies*
"I kind of.. got them from some of the localresidents."
>>60833Tracy curiously fidgets with the device some more, using her floating hands (claws retracted).
Is there any information available on it other than the notifications that just popped up? Perhaps a map for local residents?
>>60840*smushes*
"I stole them." Tracy says flatly
"I subtly picked the cards out of the pockets of several individuals in the plaza and watched contently as the mailboxes reduced them to piles of fine powder."
>>60839Yes, there's a fully indexed section with information, I'm just having difficulty with descriptions at the moment. Additionally, my persistent critical nature is more active than usual.
the part of me that says "ITS SHIT!" >>60842Trumpaladin inspects the device himself
>>60842No worries.
Tracy takes a while, fidgeting and trying to figure out how to handle the device (despite being able to hold weapons easily, she's still not used to having fingers), and takes a peak at the bots cleaning up Infernius's remains.
>>60843Brad feels a ripple in Tracy's plot from his position, indicating that the mare just made a movement to shrug.
>>60843"... Are you mad at me..?" She asks, sheepishly
>>60846"Yes." Trumpaladin responds with a bit of anger, but otherwise seems enraptured by the device. Without looking up, he says "did you do anything else?"
>>60847"Not really. You and Infernius showed up just afterwards.. and then
that happened..." Tracy says, grimly gesturing towards the smoldering pile in the plaza
>>60848"Learn anything about Great Leader" he says staring at the ID
>>60842Can Trumpaladin get to the home screen?
>>60848The cleaning bots finish loading Infernius onto the trolley, then proceed to clean up the remains of the other victims.
>>60850Yes. Uh, which ID did Tracy give him?
>>60849"You mean the fatass who was speaking in the square earlier?"
*smushes with fat ass*
"Not much, except it looks like the hierarchy is pretty clear around here. It seems generally lawful. I see why Susan's colleagues like it around here."
>>60851I didn't bother to pick which one, let's say Frank's.
She's currently holding Gorplemonger's device, since Tracy's faggot thinks of it like some kind of trophy.
>>60851Trumpaladin trues to collect any parts of these remains, while at the same time trying to figure out how to operate the device
>>60853Scratch that, just stay near and follow the trolley
>>60853Ur still under her ass.
Tracy does get up, let him on her back, and advance after the trolley while ethereal tho.
>>60852"Susan's colleagues? The transgender elves got in?"
>>60855Hopefully horse can do that with no hands on the reins. Is riding a horse while texting dangerous?
>>60857If you wanna be insufferably meta about it, you'd have to make various ride or even concentration checks to do shit while mounted, but he's not in control anyway, so it's fine for him to sit back and shitpost as a passenger.
>>60856There will be no traps in the game, IDC what Wizards decided to include
>>60855Finishing their task, the cleaning bots and trolley venture to one of the available gates. They're designed such that whatever activates the gates does so automatically and without apparent input. Unfortunately, since the process is automated Tracy is unable to tail the trolley through the gate.
>>60856"That Bitch mentioned something about some guys breaking into the museum; it seems security has been uptight because of that too. I wouldn't rule out the idea that they could be the same faggots who robbed us." Tracy says, gnashing her razor-sharp teeth
"Think of it. This a lawful city, full of squishy targets with more money than they know what to do with, and a security system that could work
for you if you know the right tricks: it's an assassin's paradise." Tracy continues, her tone a bit too upbeat for comfort.
>>60859[reeeeees at unresponsive gate]
"Well.. That's going nowhere.." she says, stamping her hoof in frustration
>>60859I still find it funny to call him Susan though.
>>60859Look up waste management on device
>>60860"So hopefully we can find those fuckers who took our money and get it back"
>>60864"Any idea where my knives could be?" Tracy asks, peaking over her shoulder
>>60865[snorts smoke in agreement]
>>60866"They must have a central location for confiscated weapons"
After materializing, Tracy ducks into an alley and turns around discreetly, to spot if the crowd that stampeded earlier is still there.
>>60867"I hope so.." Tracy says, letting out an impatient sigh
>>60859Are there any other cleaning bots anywhere? Did you say that the gate the trolley went through is closed?
>>60869The cleaning bots also depart through the gate. The gate automatically activates for the bots, opening and closing as the bot proceeds through using an automated system. While it was designed with efficiency in mind, it prevents individuals from accessing restricted and/or dangerous areas.
>>60869I think it's like a teleportation circle that activate on a trigger, with a racial aspect of the cleaning bots as the device activation.
>>60870It'd be pure bullshit if I attempted to take 10 to emulate the bots' race with a Use Magick Device check, wouldn't it?Tracy looks back to observe the crowd, particularly looking out for That Bitch and the uniformed personnel
Tracy lurks closer to the crowd, using her ability too phase through buildings and maintain stealth.
>>60870Can Trumpaladin access Social on his device?
>>60875Sorry i fell asleep last night.
>>60874Except he's not in the Entertron
>>60877Its all good, I haven't been at my best lately
>>60876>his deviceWell he got over that quickly.
>>60880No, he's completely incapacitated
>>60876Like,... twitter for example?
>>60881>>60878Describe what i see (if i can)
>>60882Infernius is still quite unconscious, so nothing at the moment. I'm trying to determine when he would regain consciousness, and what situation he would find himself in when he does.
>>60881>Like TwitterDo you know what happens when you give Trump a blackberry?
>>60886Please don't shitpost until we get Tracy's knives back.. but then please shitpost super hard.
>>60888Trumpaladin checks out anything that looks like social media of any kind at all. Now, about these accounts. Can you make more of them? Is he limited to Frank's? Is it possible to have several? Are any forms anonymous or use pseudonyms?
>>60887>Delete your account>please stop tweeting>president's shouldn't tweet>your blackberry is the greatest threat to the free world>56% of people polled want Donald Trump to stop tweetingPic
>>60888What's the status on That Bitch and her lackeys?
>>60892Look for Tracy's blades first.
>>60894"Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee *whispers* will me ever see thez again?"
>>60894Thanks, I needed that
>>60895That Bitch is mingling with some of the apparently more prominent individuals, using the opportunity to network and associate.
>>60896Awwww
>>60898"Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee*
[1d20+24 = 36]>>60897Tracy stealthily lurks closer (juanting where she can) as she continues to gather information, moving as discretely as a monster truck carrying an orangutan can move
Rolling to Sneak closer
>>60899*un-opened letters fly around Infernius like a flock of harpies, diving and tormenting him with gruesome paper-cuts all over his body*
Which is a mental projection of the excruciating pain his body is in in the real world.
[1d20+5 = 13]
Wisdom check on how to opperate these accounts
[1d20+10 = 24]
>>60904
>magic device
It's a fucking smart phone. Not a wand. But whatever, since he has a vastly higher charisma bonus.
>>60905I deleted that because I realized what I said was misleading.
>>60905It's not the first time he's shitposted with a tablet-shaped device, so he'd get a +2 bonus on top of that.
He's got it figured out.
>>60907
Its a story of an improvised NPC
>>60903Gosh this story is awesome.
>>60914Penalty, excessive use of feels. 15 yards
>>60903Damn, I am glad I watched that whole thing
He's a good dwarf ;^;7
>>60919G O O D D W A R F A L E R T !
"Horse, can you get us to the bodies?"
>>60922"You mean those piles of ash?"
>>60923"Yes. Can you take us to them?"
>>60924"What do you want from them?"
>>60925Trumpaladin looks with disbelief. "Are you shitting me? Infernius is there"
I g2g for a while, sorry.
>>60929Fuck, you really threw me with the Ohgie story. I went on a half hour rant to Lenos' faggot about how I deliberately avoid tragic elements like that cuz feels
>>60930Oohgie died a hero's death.
>>60930Dont be a faggot, gibe feels i love feels.
>>60927I fucked up.
"I would.. It's just I'm not sure exactly where they went..." Tracy says, unsure..
>>60933*"or how to get there." she says, staring at the gate where the robots were moments ago.
>>60933>>60934"Well, if we had some way of passing through solid matter, we could go through the floors until we eventually found the level with waste disposal. We could also maybe try to ride one or hijack one the next time they show up. Of course, we'll need to wait until someone makes a mess
Wait, is it a physical barrier gate, or a teleportation gate?
>>60935"Did you find out anything while playing with your toy, Flashy?" she asks curiously
>>60937"Oh no no no, my little pony. It's not about what
I found out. It's about what the world shall soon find out."
Trumpaladin's thumbs hover dangerously over the super weapon, as he ponders its power""
>>60932"You knob-end, you do realize that I'm a direct manifestation of his
inability to adequately process and cope with feels,...."
>>60935I am greatly appreciating this line of dialogue
>>6094010/10 crafty-smiths would pray to.
>>60935I'm not entirely sure I understand how anything around here works, but Tracy advances forward and attempts to phase through the gate/floor/wherever she's told.
You steer her, because I don't think I understand the layout anymore..
>>60942I think the other floors are beneath the main one, with the park area having solid matter beneath it, and the other areas more likely to have other floors
>>60943Ask Siri what the level is.
>>60940Let's put a statue of him in the forge.
>>60940Trumpaladin presses down on the center button
"Where does trash go?"
>>60948Well technically the party is unaware of Oohgie,... but I can definitely work him into upcoming developments.
>>60945No
>>60949Trash, waste, and excess material is sent to a processing facility, where its properties are analyzed and recycled for optimum efficiency. I'm figuring that Infernius will wake up in a bit of an unfavorable situation
>>60951Tracy looks at her device, desperately searching for the area where her beloved cutlery may have been stored.
She begins by searching for where the front gate is situated in relation to them.
Is she able to find anything about the "arena level"?
*is still sinking through the floor because Brad told her to*
>>60951To Sirlexitana: "what level is utilities?"
>>60953I'm assuming you mean the phone
"You are not cleared for that degree of informatin."
As an "act" (Frank was a magician btw) Trump's ability to directly interact with or affect infrastructure is limited
