"Let's just get it done, right?" She declares with hastily conjured resolution behind her words and hops down the narrow hatch. Not so eager to accidentally hurt myself I quickly check that I haven't left anything behind and climb down the steps like a normal person.

As soon as my feet hit the ground, Camille takes a single quick spring back up the steps carved into the wall, and almost silently shuts the hatch. I think I was supposed to do that, but she does not seem to have minded as she simply hops back down and gives me a quick nod that I take to mean "Go." We did agree that I would stay in front while she makes sure nothing gets behind us in the darkness.

From here, there appears to be only one way to go, and that is further down the corridor that appears to have been dug right out of the ground and occasionally reinforced with wood beams. I was half expecting the walls to be lined with carved stone like the church above, but it seems these tunnels were never intended to look pretty. A slight orange glistens as the light from the lanterns Camille brought, one for each of us thankfully, flickers across the uneven surface, briefly catching my fascination before I remind myself that we're here to do a job.

With only one way to go, I am not really left with any kind of choi-

Wait, did she say an apprentice's wage? Am I supposed to get paid?

>Stay quiet, focus on the mission, everything else can wait. Proceed.. [Choose below]
>.. with determination. Camille has my back, so I just need to focus on what's in front of us and on finding the -hopefully- sleeping werewolf as quickly as possible.
>.. with extra wariness, because I have a nagging suspicion that Mistress is planning yet another annoying test somewhere, as if dealing with the werewolf wasn't enough to worry about.

>Per the standard, first vote time is extended to a full hour, after that which the normal, slightly less glacial pace resumes.

"If you're petty enough to bet cheap pocket change, sure," Olwen says. "The stakes are unexpectedly low, to be honest."

Your reputation must proceed you then, if people aren't willing to bet large amounts. Of course, that doesn't mean you won't join in.

>>Be Aggressive. You’ve been somewhat passive the entire match so she wouldn’t expect a sudden assault from you.

You stand up after her, nodding.
“Sure. Who knows, maybe I'll learn something.”
Blackfire seems pleased with your decision as she turns to face the exit of the cafeteria. She waits for you to get next to her before she begins walking, leading you to the classroom.

You both walk a short distance down the halls of HIVE, with Blackfire telling you the names of a few students along the way and what their powers are. You figure it's good to know this stuff if you're going to be taking a class about spying.

You both enter the class, and for the most part it seems fairly ordinary. It has the layout of a typical university room, just with fewer seats and some high-tech desk equipment. Blackfire leads you over to one of the middle seating areas, giving you a decent view of whoever is going to be teaching this class.
You look around the room and see two familiar faces, those being Jinx and Kydd.
Kydd notices you and gives you a small wave. You're about to give him one back when someone addresses you.
“Oi, prick. Yer in my seat.”
You turn only to see your dorm neighbor staring daggers down at you. She reeks of smoke and looks just as unpleasant as before.
“Ohh, sorry Lady Black.” Blackfire chimes in, leaning back in her seat and giving who you now know as Lady Black a wicked little grin.
“Sorry, but my friend Battery wanted to sit in class with me today. It's alright I allow him to use your chair right? He's new after all...”
Lady Black just grits her teeth angrily. She looks like she's about to slug Blackfire across the face, but she resists the urge and stomps off while muttering an insult to the Tamaranian.
“Fuckin' space slag!”

Blackfire chuckles darkly, then gives you a comforting touch on the arm.
“Don't mind her. Being Manchester Black's illegitimate daughter comes with a lot of baggage, I'm sure.” She informs you in a mocking manner.
Before you can ask who the hell Manchester Black is, you hear the voice of the class' instructor beckon the room.
“Good evening,” A voice comes from the front of the room. The voice is female, and you pick up on a French accent as she speaks.
“Welcome back to another lesson in Espionage and Sabotage. I see some new faces, so allow me to introduce myself.”
The woman steps in front of her desk, her slender frame standing proud while adorned in a red tube top and pants, as well as a pair of shiny black boots and long gloves.

“I am Madame Rouge.”

[To be continued in the next post]

>>1666385
The room becomes dead silent as she speaks. You don't know anything about Madame Rouge, but she gives a presence that demands fear and respect.
“If you are in this class, it is because you wish to bring someone to their knees before you strike them down. You want to lurk in the shadows of your target and learn their every move. You want to extract information and exploit others by any means necessary And if you should fail...”
She gives the room full of villainous teenagers a cold glare, pausing as she seems to stare into everyone's souls.
“... You are willing to pay the ultimate price.”

She places her latex arms behind her back, sauntering over to her desk as she continues to speak.
“I will teach you all how to properly deceive not just these so called superheroes, but the entire world.”
She sits, examining some papers before speaking again.
“Battery.” Her stern voice calls out, surprising you.
It's the first time you've ever set foot in this room and she's already singling you out.
“Are you lost?” Her icy tone inquires as she raises an eyebrow at you.
“I believe someone with your talents would've seen Master Katarou first. This class requires a more... Delicate approach. Why did you decide to come here?”

You swallow. You weren't ready to be put on the spot by the ice-queen and her sexy accent so soon. How do you respond?


A: “Blackfire invited me.”

B: “I dunno, I just wanted to learn stuff.”

C: “If you know who I am, you know what I got under these good looks. I was made for stealth.”

D: “I'm not going to get anywhere just hitting things. Might as well learn to hit things quietly.”

E: “You're right, I'm totally lost. I'll see myself out!”

F: Just stay silent. What if she's testing you on spilling info?

>>1666388
>D: “I'm not going to get anywhere just hitting things. Might as well learn to hit things quietly.”
Are people forgetting modern security requires electricity? I mean it's probably a good thing they're not putting it together but real hard to trip an alarm if it's got no juice.

"What do you mean? They threatened us. Anyhow it's not like I would have enjoyed hurting them but incapacitating them was the only way to be certain we could escape since I didn't know if you could handle two by yourself.

Had you failed to take care of those two and I was tied up dealing with him, I would have been surrounded and we would have both been beaten. Then they'd have seen my ears and we would be fucked, wouldn't we? This is before mentioning the risk to both our lives and such.

Now we should get going before they return with more goons. Lest we actually have to spill blood."

The high Kings are a tribe that were once dominant in The East.

They were a kingdom that ruled from generation to generation under the divine right of the animal gods that their royal family descended from that they believe at one time the people of pre-bomb society worshiped just as they do. The currently standing royal family is thought to have descended directly from The Rat God, a divine creature of power and rule, but at one time was overtaken by a union of three other divine families descended from The Mallard, The Wolf, and The Bear.

Now The High Kings have been thrown from their territory, forced to flee over The Grand Mountains to find their home in what was once a trailer park in the old world, now occupied by this monarchistic tribe, and ready to rise again so their leaders may once again be worthy of the title King.

The Forest Men are a culture from The West.

At one time they were a minor tribe that believed in the rigidity of a caste based on the classification of their descendants in the form of ancient dog tags that remain in the possession of the heads of many families. They were a warrior-like clan, and determine who had the right to rule based on one on one combat between members of similar classes. Other clans around them, though not sharing the rigidity and order of The Forest Men's caste system, were great in numbers and savagery, and pushed the smaller tribe out of The West under threat of death.

They now reside within a pre-bomb set of fishing cabins where they've discovered the art of spear fishing and adapted quite well to the circumstances. They do however fear the return of demons from The Forest to their south, passed raids from evil creatures at night have convinced The Clan that the gate to hell must be within the woods, and its beasts spill into the mortal world from time to time to assault the living.

The Abbey Dwellers are a clan from The South.

They had been the likes of sea dwellers once, riding on a fabled grand ship that carried them from one sea to another in a constant drift, but at a time had taken on so much wear and tear that they were forced to abandon it once it collided against the shores of this region. It saddened them to leave their home, but as it was found, the land they had crashed into was wholly barren, and the plagued with invading savages from the north, and odd demonic creatures from The West. They were forced to migrate from the shoreline where they finally came to find home at a brick abbey that had laid abandon for centuries before their arrival.

This is where they found the works of the bible, and adopted its teachings as explanations for the ill fates that they had experienced through their journeys. They now live by the concept that god was struck down by the atomic fire that devoured the world, but just as mankind arose again, so did he, though changed to reflect the world he had created.

But, classes can wait first you have to be a hero! Save lives! Do.. Other hero things! Like look for survivors!

As you wander around the burnt out shell of a town looking for survivors and contemplating your class and abilities you stumble upon a gathering of people around the town hall, it appears the mayor is talking about organizing a search effort as a few people are missing. Most importantly the town alchemist, the closest thing to a healer this place has had in years, and a handful of farmers and shop-owners.

As the mayor drones on you pick up some information that might just give you the edge you need in your new career as a hero and savior to your village.

The town was raided by goblins late last night, but strangely enough didn't loot the the village, but instead simply razed it and took hostages as many report that they say the savages run off into the night with people in tow and took off to the west.

This raises a couple of questions, such as...
>Why did they take hostages
>Why didn't they take any loot
>Why are they acting like the polar opposites of most goblins

And perhaps most importantly what skills do you have and what class are you?

If you’re a die-hard lover of canon, I suggest you turn away now. Like all things 40k, the gauntlet runs from “worshiping the printed, grimdark word” to “over the top silliness.” Most of the time it’s somewhere in between. Others it swerves hard to one side and/or breaks this model entirely. You’ve been warned in advance. I do try to keep things fairly reasonable though.

Alternatively, if you’re not at all familiar with canon or want more details on something, just ask! You don’t need to have played the original Khornette Quest to play and enjoy this one. I’m sure someone (or I) will explain any cameos that come up if you’re lost.

All rolls go against a specified characteristic in the style of Black Crusade. You’ll want to roll under the characteristic value in order to pass the check. The more degrees of success (every multiple of 10 counts as 1), the more awesome of a result. A 1 or an 8 is a guaranteed success, and a 100 is a guaranteed failure. NPCs I roll for only crit succeed/fail on a 1 or a 100.

Best of three rolls when it’s called for, with a 1, 8, or a 100 instantly taking precedence. If multiple characteristics are being rolled for each 1d100 counts for its respective test. Any rolls prior to the call for one and those not linking said post will be ignored.

I realize that /qst/ is much slower than /tg/ ever was, but I’d like to keep things moving. Voting windows will be a maximum of twenty to thirty minutes after the first vote. Same goes for dice rolling. This week we’re going to try running Thursday afternoon (now), Friday early morning (~2am onwards), Saturday early morning (~12am onwards), and maybe Sunday late evening (11pm). If the thread’s still up on Tuesday, we might play then too.

That’s it housekeeping-wise for now. Onto the quest!

Alrighty, as I said, I dont think I can write the cutesy scene that yet has dominating tones and that ends up with Aritsu turning into Eldric's 2nd toy, you know? But I will do what I can, I guess.

It's bothered me all week long anyway.

***

Lyann gsped loudly as Eldric kissed her, her breath mixing with his while her body trembled under the caress of his fingers on her thigh. She is on her back atop the bed, her wrists pulled up and secured to the bedframe so she couldn't stop her loved from doing as he wished with her, and he did indeed take advantage as he continued to kiss and caress her.

"Eh, aren't you teasing her too much?" - asks Sykia from her spot on the floor, where she was kneeling in what she had learned was her 'waiting' posture as Eldric's newest pet.
"I love teasing my Lyann, though."

The succubus could tell how excited she was. Her naturally sensitive body was exuding the slightly acitric scent of her heat, while her nipples pushed hard against the cloth over them, making little tents visible at the peak of her breasts, yet she found herself unable to move in the slightest, somehow compelled to obey her new master, albeit still able to think and speak freely.

Eldric's hands gently pulled Lyann's left leg up from behind her knee until her foot was neat to her right knee, and then pushed her knee aside to expose her shamelessly to the room's fresh air.

"Fuu... Master, your Lyann needs you in her now..." - the beautiful redhead complained softly into his lips. He had kissed, caressed and teased her for quite a while now, and she could feel herself about to melt from need and desire.

>Is that so? Then I guess I'll give my toy what she wants.
>Is that so? But Lyann is my toy, so I'll do as I want, and I want to see if she can cum from kissing alone.
