This bread is not for you! This is a very special bread, made entirely of mixed nuts.
Welcome back to the Game, where right now we're discussing how Tracy can't hide the fact that she sometimes catches fire.

Tracy here, looking for clues in the Sticky Wicket
I guess Trump is going through the doors of one of the old Jew Buildings, looking to convert it into a grill or a luxury hotel
You learn that the (((rats))) would make regular trips in a wagon headed north out of town, with a large escort. These trips would begin in the evening, and would return the following morning.
>>8962>not making it easier for other players to tell what character you're playingThis game would be a lot less confusing if more players did this.
>>8960I linked the Wrong post sorry
>>8938 →This is my action gm.
>>8966My flag does enough, but agreed
Torcuil heads to the forges, depressed remebering his family
>>8966He was the guy in the sp thread who pointed out your namefag
Yes I did just reveal information about posting historypls no bully
>>8969Sorry Alex, the official game night is Saturday,... which means we usually start on friday and finish on monday. Its madness during the week.
>>8971I was NOT the guy in the /sp/ thread! I was the guy in the /ub/ thread dammit!
>>8974Book Club?
Cause I'm the anon running the poll/decided tonight
>>8965>north out of townThat's gotta be the black box town
Tracy get's on the trail towards the next town, disguises herself with dirt to avoid unwanted attention, and makes her way along the side of trail, looking for clues as she goes (basically, the same thing she was doing before she met the Zs)
>>8971*bullies hard*Staph doing that reeeee!
>>8970>>8973>>8966I'm banned both from namefagging and flag fagging by the Board owner
>>8974yeah, /ub/, whatever
>>8972Oh ok. i cant even do a cinematic action?
>>8978Of course you can. I imagine you know what happens next anyway.
>>8979I scream " I DID IT I BROKE THE CONDITIONING!" at the top of my lungs.
>>8977Well that sucks
GM, did we agree that I got cold steel?
Cause I want to forge some throwing hatchets as a secondary weapon.
If anyone wants my rapier, they can have it
>>8978Got the perfect angel for you to summon.
>>8975Wait, YOU'RE the one? I thought that was a different anon
>>8976K
>>8981... for a second time. o_O
>>8983It's bad enough Tracy is kind of a walking Jump Scare. No
>>8983>tfw no rock angel gfDoes Tracy find anything interesting on her path towards box town?
>>8984I didnt know if it was saw or not. After that i get up and walk to the wall and jump through it.
(How thin is the glass of the wall?)
>>8987No, and she won't cuz I'm about to crash for the night. I'm giving Alex the chance to introduce himself.
>>8987>Box TownTAKE ME TO THEM
The
New Jersey Port Barry Generals need another team to play against
>>8985Speaking of that..
GM, how should I go about developing Tracy's ability to shift planes?
>>8990Oh
Okay then. Goodnight.
>>8988Not that thin, and its not normal glass. If you tried, you would find shooting it ineffective.
>>8995I walk out the door then.
[3d6 = 5]>>8996Almost an ebin fail. You explode. Not an "into pieces" explosion (there was that one time tho), but rather a sudden burst of flame leaving you singed.
For those who are still in Trump tower, the telltale sound of an explosion lights off from the rooms hallway.
>>8998you know what i never got about weeping angels. why didnt they just smash them?
>>9001>tfw when in Port BarryDo I acquire title to the building, and can I begin renovations?
>>9001>>9000"Too bad that didnt kill me"
I walk down the hall.
>goes to phone-posting>>9003Yes, first thing in the (Game) morning.
>>9002Too busy wetting themselves.
>>9008I tell you, I struck a hell of a blow against them. That's why they struck me back
I need to write out my back story
>>9004You're coming out of the hallway along the south. The X isn't you, its from a previous character but I'm lazy. Up the staircase on the north you can hear activity. Also, you can tell looking trough the outer walls that this building is ~100feet off the ground (sl.
>>9005Is it not morning in the game?
>>9009My character doesn't know that though. He still realing from a resent tragedy.
>>9014We're going to have a hell of a talk later then
>>9016Blind pony is super cute.
>>9013No. It should be, and it will bez, but for the moment it isn't
>>9017If it's morning, I'm building the Trump Hotel in Port Barry using the old Jew buildings. If it's early night, I'm coaching Football at the stadium construction site. If it's ;ate night, I'm in Trump Tower
>>9017Don't go looking for him immediately though. Your character doesn't know wtf is going on yet.
>>9023I know i was just wondering.
And waiting for the gm to tell me whats up the stairs.
>>9025I hope not, but if he is thats ok.
>>9026Yeah I fell asleep. Anytime I go to phone-posting, odds are I am dangerously close to sleeping. I'll be around this evening.
>>9027That's fine. This has been really fun so far. I'd figured plays during the week we're mostly cinematic anyway.
Also, I'm going to semi-nerf Tracy's Nightmare transformation (in a situational sense), for the sake of better character development. There's no way she could get a hold of transforming at will so quickly, and the prospect of transforming into a powerful monster two size classes above her normal form just sounds like it would be energy-taxing. I'm going to leave it as a limited super-saiyan state for now until the plot develops to the point where she'd actually need the buff, perhaps manifest powers partly as I train her in autohypnosis as a Wilder, or have her just grow a bit bigger when she gets angry.For now, I'm just going to focus on developing her as a Rogue character on her little treasure-hunting adventure, hoping to throw-in some character-building dialogue in interactions with NPCs and some self-reflection greentext here and there to clarify her motives.
>>9028New IP!I'm working out a very thorough and extensive backstory for Trump. It won't be tragic, because Trump's life was too awesome for much tragedy except that he died, but it should hopefully be entertaining
>>9029Wait.. Is he actually Trump, or does he come from a country governed by Trump?
Earlier, I thought you said he worked as a border patrol officer for the Imperial guard.
>>9030Don't worry, these issues will be resolved and reconciled
>>9032Don't worry. We can always make the tragedy ourselves.
>>9033I like this idea.
>>9028You nerfing your self puts you in the number 2 spot.
>>9036In the nerfing and the tragedy developments (I switched IPs in that other post there).
>>9037If you make it worth her while, maybe.
Her prime motive is to fulfill the role of a traditional wife and escape nihilism/despair.
>>9039Idk, I'm, starting to get confused too now..
Forget I said anything..
How exactly do roll modifiers work? I'm having trouble figuring out my odds of succeeding at skills with my character's natural and class-related abilities. Do I need to calculate her stats?
>>9041That is a good question, ive been lurking for awhile and i still cant figure it out.
>>9042>>9041I just say stuff that sounds like fun and the GM either accepts it or doesn't
>>9045>>9044>>9043>not saying so beforehandIf you don't know the answer, don't reply. It's confusing.
>>9050how sweet of you torcuil.
>you should turn into a frog-man like pepe.
>>9052H summoned a Pepe earlier, but it didn't do anything...
>>9053thats why he needs to be the pepe.
>>9054He should just keep spamming Pepe until he rolls a 1 and turns himself into a frog.
>>9055im sure he could find a potion somewhere or he could just drink frog blood,
>>9042GM is basing it largely off of DnD, so try reading the Wikis.
>>9059I'll stab you both.
>>9060wouldn't be first time you stab infernuis.
>>9062Just for that, I'm going to start using poison.
>>9063ifernuis liver will become stronk
Then I guess it's a win-win.
>>9065She's actually cute like that, killing that soccer ball
>>9067They don't call it 'Murder Ball' for nothing.
>>9024>pic related>>9028I'm glad you said that, cuz that's kinda how I was gonna drag it out anyhow. Xp
>>9041If you want a precise answer, yes. Generally I am basing skill tests off a percentile based on the dice. If the player has a 75% chance, you'd need above a 5, a 30% chance over a 14, and so on.
>>9051ROFLMAO
>>9053You summoned awkward-faced Crusader pepe. So you got awkward Crusader pepe. ^_~
Alright, don't expect TOO much out of me tonight, as I will be preoccupied (still present) at times. As Sad Alex is examining the area, Thez walks by in a mood. She stops for a moment, peers at him suspiciously, sniffs the air for a moment, shrugs, and then continues down the stairs before leaping out the entrance and flies off.
>*arrives at the entrance of Box town at night*
>Surveys area ([Search]?)
>Looks around for nearby NPCs ([Spot]+[Gather Info]?)
How's the neigh-borhood?
[1d20 = 3]>>9069I follow the globalist demon i saw.
Stealthy
>>9071What globalist demon are you referring to?
>>9073She flies down to the Sticky Wicket and walks inside. Once inside she wanders to the bar, acquires the remainder of the green bottle, and plops herself down at the piano with a glass.
Damn it, everyone is playing again!
I swear I am writing a backstory... It's long
>>9074I walk up behind her and say
"Look here globalist demon i dont know why you brought me here,but i will end you and afterwards myself"
Summons angel.
>>9077The box town is a rather humble little village, with an expansive farming area. Scattered villagers wander about, and few commercial buildings can be seen.
>>9078"Really new guy? If you want me to break your toy, I'll be happy to oblige. Those robots didn't really do it for me," she says pouring herself a drink.
As you cast your summons, she begins to play.
What ever happened to the pepe I summoned?
>tfw I can't help slay Globalist demons because I have a meeting
>>9080He vanished, summons have a limited duration.
https://youtu.be/L7qDfi3mK18 - song
>>9079As Ryuk (that's what you're going for yes?) appears, she gets up from the piano and a shadowy silhouette of her remains at the piano, still playing.
>>9081Do your shit. My character is in a different town.
>>9079Does the town have a sheriff or gatesman?
*look around for the most official-looking person to find a guide/info*
>>9085Flashy*
I know.
>>9083Yea thats what im going for.
Holy blast.
>>9086No one appears official, its all just villagers. Some are carrying supplies, others leading farm animals. There's a general store, there might be information there.
>>9087Is that a WOW reference?
>>9088Who knows, it may have been.
>>9088*walk into general store, hood over head*
*approach the counter slowly*
>>9090"Who there, c'mon, you can't be in here," he says attempting to guide you back outside with a carrot.
>>9089Gimme a min while I attempt to wrap my mind around what Ryuk's rough abilities and such are.
[1d20 = 3]
Well, that's not as useful as I would have hoped. Lets see what the dice say.
Now, its a bit absurd to think that Ryuk is using a holy blast, but meh, I get where you're going with it. The blast shoots forward and splits into 3 directions and curves around her, striking the surrounding area.
She makes a 'tch' sound, before sitting back down at the piano, resuming playing while the shadow dissipates.
"Try harder," she says.
>>9092>tfw not Sir Bearington>HowDoIAvoidFreakingHimOut.png...
*takes a few steps back*
*hold up right hoof and graciously take carrot from his hand*
>humble tone"... Why, thank you, kind Sir, but I was actually hoping to ask some questions, if you would abide..."
>acting chill as fuck, like talking hoers are a normal thingDo I need a diplomacy roll?
>>9097"What, wait? Oh god, you're not here to kill me are you? How can you,... talk?"
>>9099Now technically, Ryuk has no physical combat ability, he just has a death spell. But, I'll go with it for story purposes.
Since she's not even trying to defend herself, he stabs her through the back, just below the ribcage. Do you want him to have impaled her?
>>9098"I.. ugh... (frantically searching thoughts)
I come from a race settled in a far away land. I mean no harm."
*slowly stands up on little hind legs*
"If you would be hospitable, may you afford me the name of this settlement?"
*bows*
[screams internally, from being so uncharacteristically polite]
[1d20 = 4]
[1d12 = 10]
He stabs her, a quick in and out. She doesn't flinch, but she does sigh lengthily. The wound immediately closes and heals as she closes the piano and gets back up.
T>Quickened dimension door, axe kick to Alex
YOU SHALL SING YOUR FALSE SONG NO LONGER DEMON!
[4d8 = 14]>>9105Thats what you begin to say, as she disappears and reappears above you, driving her heel squarely into your shoulder which is now dislocated.
"I'm not your opponent. For whatever reason, if you're here then I'm supposed to keep you alive. That doesn't mean I can't or won't kill you in the short term though."
>>9108Where am i you interdimensional vampire scum!?
>>9108"Ah... So you want controlled opposition like your little Fox News, do you? Well you can go right back on to hell globalist!"
>>9097"How is that, nevermind," he returns behind the counter. "What sort of question could you have that I might know the answer to?" He's bewildered.
[1d20 = 6]>>9111She's starting to lose her cool. "Look, I don't know who you are, where or why you came from or are here, I don't even KNOW what a globalist is, and worst of all, YOU INTERRUPTED MY SONG!"
T>stunning fist
>>9113You do realize your replying to trump right?
>>9115Oh. Right,... I knew that. Nevermind. ._.
>>9110"Its a Game, except we're the pieces, sent here because some deity or entity decided - upon our death - that there was more for us to do, or some agenda, I'm not really sure tbh." she drinks the glass.
>>9113"I didn't want to have to do this..."
He pulls out PURE MALE VITALITY
"You can go back to hell globalist!"
>>9112*clears throat*
"Well, for starters, what's the name of this fine town? *glances outside* "It seems quite the cozy place' do you get very much traffic around these parts??"
>>9118You mean i have to suffer more? I dont even have anymore super male vitality.
>>9120"Oh yeah, sorry. You're the first talking horse I've ever seen. The village is called Pip, and we get travelers every so often passing through, though not too many stop since its so close to Port Barry. We're just humble farmers, but we're good enough to earn a decent wage selling to other surrounding cities and towns."
>>9121
>Super male vitality
But are they turning the frogs gay?
>>9122"I seriously doubt you were sent here to suffer. Someone sponsored you, and they had something in mind. You'll have to figure that out on your own though."
>>9124Watch out for your Pepes, Torquil.
"Run away! Before she gets you too!"
>>9125is this hell? i thought it would be more firey.
>>9128If hell is what you make of it, then yes.
>>9129You said i was sent to YOU. Who are you exactly?
>>9131"That's not what I said. I said I'm not your opponent, that if you're here i'm supposed to keep you alive. Big difference," she pours another drink. "As for me, I'm the oldest player still alive."
>>9123"Hmm. Not much traffic, recently? I had heard that this road was a regular highway for travelling merchants; but from the looks of it, it seems like a rather peaceful village."
Did I ever make it to the forges?
>>9132You keep saying player what does that mean?
>>9133"Sorry to disappoint you young,... lady(?), but this is just a stop on the way to other places. Not much goes on around here."
>>9136"Well, when one is in a Game, that makes them a player, right?"
>>9138This is not a game, it cant be.
[3d20 = 41]>>9137"Not at all, kind Sir. *slips a few coins on the counter, as a tip* Thank you for your hospitality."
*turns to leave out the door, but stops halfway out, wearing a grim and serious face*
"... Recently, there have been rumors of a large, reptilian monster picking-off travelers along this trail. Be sure to alert anyone who may wander outside of the village of the danger. It seems to be fond of equstrians.."
And with a whirl of her cape, she vanishes out the door.
Okay, walk down the center path and search +Spot check to see what lies ahead of the trail.
Also, bluff check to make sure that rumor spreads outside of town.
>>9143"You're,... you're welcome! I'll...." his voice trails off as you dramatically depart.
>>9144What's ahead of the trail?
>>9138Are there any other players?
>>9146"I'm sure there are, but none that currently operate in this group. There are multiple groups, but most players establish their own niche area and retire from group activity."
>>9142Torcuil ask Lenos if he can forge him 2 throwing hatchets with the metal rod he got
If need be my rapier or money can be used for, reimbursement
>>9148"Me, a weird spell-caster named Torcuil, a
pompous ass paladin named Trump, a crazy blue pony named Tracy, and a big oaf of a Minotaur named Infernius. And you, by the looks of things. You're welcome to go off on your own, but the life expectancy isn't the best."
>>9152>Implying I'd give that away this early>>9150Why'd you cross out that one part?
It was the most accurate thing about Trump
>>9143>>9145*inspects her new hoers shoes as she silently trots down the trail*
>they're pretty
>>9151"Yeah, thats what he calls himself. Always going on about building infrastructure or whatever," drinks the glass.
>>9156"Last I saw him, he was out at the stadium outside the city. I'm gonna head back up to the tower, let me know if you have any more questions," she gets up to leave. "The name's Thez, btw."
>>9157My name is alex, Alex jones. Do you want to buy a water filter it filters out lead and iron.
