His name is Mike Miller. He's a forty-three year old husband (of twenty years) and father (of three children) who's been working the docks since before he was actually legal to work there. You've been watching him for awhile now, ever since his daughter came to the Midway Shelter looking to escape her miserable home life. Her given name is Brittney Miller, but she was born Bradley, and that is, in essence, the core of the problem. It'd taken you weeks to get the girl to talk to you, and when it came out, it all came out. She'd come out to her family, and her father had started the beatings while her mother started the religious interventions.

You really could give less of a shit who or what Brittney wants to be, but Mike? He's earned himself this little visit from the bad fairy. Fathers shouldn't beat their children, especially not wayward teens who need their love and understanding.

"Don't bother screaming, it's soundproof down here," you tell him, conversationally. You set a can of hairspray down on a little table near the chair that's holding Mike down - he's a big guy, which is why you brought the good cuffs - and then put your zippo down next to it. "You're a long way from the bar, Mike. You really ought to know better than to take drinks from strange women."

"Fuck you," the dockworker snarls, before he spits in your face. You wipe your cheek clean, then backhand him. There's not much force to it - never were one for physical strength, sadly - but the insult is there, and it does its job in shutting Mike the fuck up.

"Let me give you the short version," you tell him quietly. "A friend of mine owns this building. He generously lets me deal with troublesome people in it. Sometimes those are people who are, let's say, mutually troublesome, yes? But sometimes they're my personal projects. You don't want to be one of my personal projects, Mike. So let's talk about Brittney."

"His name -"

You kick the chair over - Mike lets out a surprised cry - and put your heavy boot on his neck. "Her name is Brittney," you snarl. "And you've got five minutes to convince me that -"

Someone clears their throat behind you. You turn your head slowly, Mike quietly choking to death under your foot, and see a four-eyed raven standing atop the table that currently contains the hairspray and your zippo.

"Reminisce," you say with wary respect. No one opened the only door in or out of here but the Autumn King's pet has never been one to respect things like locked doors or the laws of fucking physics. "How may I serve the Court?"

"His Majesty requests the pleasure of your presence," the raven croaks.

"I'm in the middle of something here," you point out, digging your boot in.

"You will do as you feel best, of course," the raven answers, cryptically. It takes off, shedding greasy feathers, and goes through the door like a ghost.

God. Fucking. Damn it all to hell. You can't just leave Mike down here or you'll upset your friend. Decisions, decisions.

You look down at the man, who's turning a bit blue at this point, and take your boot off of his neck.

> Let Mike go; you don't want to keep Raven waiting
> Brand the bastard and make it clear what'll happen if you ever hear of him hurting the people that look to him for protection ever again
> Burn him alive and ask your friend to dispose of the body in accordance with the usual arrangement

Welcome to July at Christmas Quest, a Changeling: the Lost one-shot in the fictional city of New Avalon. This takes place after both King of New Avalon Quest and Scarred by Thorns Quest; however, you do not necessarily need to be familiar with either to play.

“Last stop, Dokutsu village! Everybody off!”

The bus driver's shouting awakens you from your nap, as you stretch out in you uncomfortable chair. “Okay Alice...” you yawn. “This is where we get-Alice? Oh dammit, not again.”

You let out a sigh as you notice Alice is missing from the chair next to you. You wise up as you check the one place she could be... taking a nap in the overhead storage. “Did you really crawl up there while I was asleep?”

Alice stretches out like a cat with a wide smile on her face, letting out a high-pitched yawn. “Uh-huh! Lots of people were staring... I think they were impressed!”

You shake you head as you lift her from the compartment like she was a simple piece of luggage, carrying her off the bus with you, along with your own backpack draped firmly over one shoulder. You set Alice back on her feet as she continues to yawn and stretch, as you check your phone from the most recent message from Saki after you feel asleep on the journey. She felt bad that she didn't get enough chance to say goodbye because you had to take off on this mission so quickly, so she's decreed to message you as often as she can.

>From: Saki
>Good luck today, Ryoji! Today's going to be pretty stressful at the school because of the blood tests, but just know that I'm still with you every step of the way! Have fun in Dokutsu! You know, this is actually the village my grandfather grew up in. Wei always promised to take me on a trip here when I was younger to see my Grandmother's grave, but... he never did. Maybe he just never got the chance? Anyway, I'm sure there's lots to do, and whatever your mission is, I know you'll succeed!

“Poor girl...” Nina sighs. “I'm beginning to realise why you hate Principal Wei so much. I mean, I never remembered him as a particularly kind man, but it looks like he was very uncaring to his own granddaughter.”

“You ain't kidding,” you reply. “But I gotta say, Saki's shown some real bravery in standing up to her family. She's not going to let Wei being an ass hold her down.”

“Yeah, that's great, but are we going to talk about this stupid mission?” Stranger mutters. “Because it all seems so weird. Something tells me this is Wei's attempt to finally lure you into some kind of death trap.”

He's not wrong, this mission does seem very strange. You can't really call it a mission at all, more of a... treasure hunt. Wei stayed vague on the details as always, handed you a simple map of the village, and marked on of the various caverns present throughout the fairly barren landscape the village lies within, asking you to seek out an important item in the centre of the cavern. This might finally be his way of getting rid of you once and for all, trapping you in some kind of wild goose chase.

“Well, whatever it is, it's something the four of us will handle together,” you say aloud.

“Five!” Alice exclaims. “Don't forget Dreamer!”

“Huh, I didn't realise you knew about Nina,” you raise an eyebrow.

“Dreamer allows me smell her!” Alice laughs. “She smells very pretty! Like strawberries!”

“W-well, that's very flattering...” Nina mutters, in a tone that tells you she's like blushing and playing with her hair, unsure of how to take the compliment.

“Don't get too embarrassed,” Stranger mutters. “What do I smell like?”

“Pain,” Nina answers on her behalf.

“Are we going to the place now?” Alice asks expectantly. “Also, where are we going?”

>Let's head straight to the cavern, let's not waste any time.
>Let's ask around the village about the cavern, see if we can gather information on it.
>Let's check this place out, enjoy the scenery. We're not in any rush.

It’s been four days since you’ve joined her team. It’s normal for all of a team’s members to live and sleep at the same place, but your team’s manager ended up arranging for you to have a small place to yourself in the same building.

You’re a floor up from the other three members making for about two minutes of walking distance, and this kind of thing is routine - Alexis makes you join them for breakfast, which she puts together for the others anyway, and you usually end up spending most of your day with them.

Your second mission with your team was two days ago, which ended up thankfully far less exciting than the first. While walking down the stairs to the lower floor Alexis explains that they’ve been assigned to another mission.

“We’re going to work with another trainee team to protect cargo going to the North Barrier,” your leader says. “But lets leave the details until later.”

>>956533

It only takes a minute to reach their room. Alexis takes out her key and opens the door.

The living room isn’t very big considering that it’s an apartment meant for four, but much of one wall is taken up by glass sliding doors that open into a small veranda, showing the cityscape outside and letting in the sunlight. There’s a couch, a widescreen television against another wall, and a game console with controllers strewn across the floor.

Immediately in front of the door is the kitchen, which is partially separated from the living room by the kitchen counter.

The always-excitable, chestnut-haired Mika stands in front of you about two metres away, taking a carton of orange juice out of a refrigerator. She’s wearing a loose t-shirt with the picture of a certain yellow cartoon mouse on its front, and orange and white striped panties.

And that’s it.

She looks up at you and smiles. “Morning, Chris!”

Oh, a blue slime.
Yeah, they tend to not be much of a problem for you. You have dealt with them many times before. However, you are a little bit rusty. How did it go again?

Oh right, the first step is to see who goes first. You don't have any way of seeing your stats, you would need a fairly advanced interface for that. And you sure as hell can't see the slimes stats.
And yet, you can feel it in your gut, you and the slime have the same Spd(Speed) stat. That means it's up to luck to see who goes first.

Roll 1D2. 2 = you go first. 1 = slime goes first.

You head over to the woods on the right side of the path to see what is over there. You find the two archer bodies fallen onto the ground. One of the archers’ had fallen upon his bow creaking the bow, but the other is fine if a bit low quality. You also, find 34 arrows on the two of them, with 17 in each. When you walk back into the clearing the you see that Lisa is adding two quivers of arrows, one with 17 arrows and the other holding 16 arrows. Adding onto the growing loot pile Evan places the weapons of the three warriors to the pile.

“Well that could have gone better”, says Evan as he gets up with Jonathan’s help. You see that he now has a bandage wrapped around him. Jonathan himself has a bandage over where he was hit. Earl comes over to the two of them and offers them a potion. Evan takes two drinking one and handing the other to char who sips it gratefully. Earl tries to hand one over to Jonathan, but he refuses taking out one from the store and drinking it.

“I think we should take that cart”, says Lisa, “It would let us transport prisoners, loot, and if we get tired we can use it to rest while still traveling”.

“That is a rather good Idea Lisa”, begins Evan, “but what about the Ponyta’s that is pulling the cart”.

“Oh don’t worry about them”, says Lisa begin to walk towards the creature the probably just took him from a farmer, and either way I have away with such critters”. Lisa walks over to the front of the cart over to the Ponyta’s that were hitched to the cart. She begins to pet them and reaches into her bag offering them some oran berries, which they eat from her palm.

“See piece of cake”, she says while walking back over to the group, “I’m gonna name them Flash and Flame. Flash being the male and Flame being the female”, pointing the first and second ones respectively.

“Okay then less get going”, says Evan as he grabs some stuff and puts it in the cart and jumps in. Lisa and Digger heads to the front of the cart and grabs the reigns and Jonathan joins her with Isis and Juno. Alexander and Drake hop into the cart alongside Evan, and Earl and Flo hop into the cart besides them. You get into the cart on the opposite side with Fe jumping in beside you and immediately Elizabeth jumps in and begins to lean on you. Mary hops onto Storm and trots over to the side of the cart.

Seeing that you all are ready Lisa snaps the reigns causing Flash and Flame to begin to move.

“These people are too well-armed”, says Alexander addressing the group, “We need to find out who their supplier is. If it is one of the great noble houses it could cause a large amount of trouble”.

At that Earl pipes up, “Why would any of the nobles help the rebels?”

“Well Earl”, begins Alexander, “It depends on which house is doing it, but most likely it would be to gain the throne. The most likely candidate would be House Silva as the rebels have mainly been active in this region, which they control. However, now I am beginning to believe that it may be House Hydros as the rebels are very well armed and they have good access to trade goods due to their control of numerous port towns. In addition most of the attacks have also, been close to their territory.”

Just as he finishes up you begin year the sound of rushing water. Lisa stops the cart and you all head out towards to the edge of the forest. As you all look over to the river you see a surprising sight. By the river is a camp of 15 men with a number of tents sprung up. Most of the men are around a central fire though some are over by some carts or tending to a group of Ponyta’s that are all in a corral. Evan falls back to the cart and all of you follow him quietly.

“Ok here is the plan”, He begins, “First off we will…..

Roll 2d100. Also who gets what there are 5 axes, 3 bows, 67 arrows, and 1 aura sword, axe, and Spear

The Setting:

As the building blocks for life on Janus begin to take hold into variety of shapes and forms, life on Janus' sister world, Rienia has also begun to stabilize for life to start growing. Janus and Rienia revolve around the gaseous world Seostea in a Co-orbital path. Every 5-6 years, Janus and Reinia race towards one another until they are both in a Moonshot of one another before continuing on their orbital paths.

Focusing on our world Rienia, we find a planet around 2/3s the size of Janus and a 25% higher gravity than Janus, with a greater amount of landmass scorched by heat and volcanic activity. Towards the coasts and current driven oceans, it is here where the Biosphere of Rienia has started. Life finds itself surrounded by harsh and strange circumstances though, as crystalline spires cover the seafloor, and traces of poisonous selenium and arsenic present in deeper waters. Life finds safety near exclusively in the continental shelf.

Well, it’s clear what the MOST important question is. “How are you planning on getting out of here?” Never hurt to be specific.

Cain grins, his swagger back in full force. “Well, now, dear, initially we were worried that our little operation might’ve come to a screechin’ halt thanks to a certain fool native, but considerin’ your timely presence, I think we have ourselves a way out of this mess. Considering your combat ability, do you think you might be able to provide to us a strong distraction? Most of those folks out there ain’t exactly friendly with me, and the ones that are left mostly just enjoy the carnage an’ hate folks tryin’ to tell ‘em what to do.” He does approximate a veneer of humility, although you’re pretty sure it’s fake. Still, orders are orders.

“Alright. Is there anyone in particular you want alive in town after I’m done?” The way he looks at you is something you’re used to, as if he’s confused, skeptical, and touch concerned all at once.

“Well, I can’t say in particular, no, but I’d presume you’d leave the storefolk n’ normal peoples alone, yes?” The way he asks that is as if he simply presumed you’d do it anyway. Yeaaahh...no.

“Avoiding collateral is a flat 25% increase on top of the base contract,” you explain, much to his and Mr. Trench’s surprise. “More finesse and more work is reflected in the payment for services rendered, you understand.” He opens his mouth briefly, with a look of disgruntlement, before you cut him off. “You have until the first hostiles reach us to make your decision."

It takes a couple more seconds for him to recover. “Well, now, Miss, I wasn’t looking to flatten the entire town!” He has the gall to look a bit indignant. “I still need me some customers, and I can’t have that if’n everyone’s dead an’ buried!”

“Despite the fact that the mayor’s dead and the deputy mayor and all those behind ‘im said you’d get involved in this town over their dead bodies?” Mr. Trench snarks. Cain just looks back at him with a glare, causing Trench to grin. “If she can make it happen, frankly, I don’t see why she shouldn’t.” Cain looks at him for a moment more, before he sighs and turns to you.

“Look, I can’t say I care overmuch what happens to them rabble-rousers outside, and especially not that cud-eating lawman, but you jus’ make sure I still got buildings to operate out of at the end of the day, y’here me? If’n it costs extra, then so be it, but I’d best get my money’s worth!”

You nod. “Understood.”

In a time of global crisis, an elite international task force known as Overwatch was formed. Soldiers, scientists, adventurers, and oddities: together, they ended the Omnic Crisis and restored peace to a war-torn world. The heroes of Overwatch kept peace for a generation, inspiring an era of exploration, innovation, and discovery.

After many years, Overwatch became troubled, and finally disbanded. Now world conflict is rising again. Overwatch may be gone…but the world still needs heroes.

When you were a child, you dreamed of someday joining Overwatch. Someday you would fight bad guys and protect the innocent, along with heroes like Jack Morrison and Ana Amari. You had every action figure, and a poster on your wall. But before you were fully grown, that dream ended.

You watched the U.N. conference on holovid, not believing that these bureaucrats could ever stop the global task force from being the heroes they were. But the shadow of tragedy still haunted Overwatch, after the explosion at their headquarters in Switzerland. Rumors had it the incident caused a rift within the group, that they could no longer work together. The Petras Act was passed into law, and Overwatch quietly disbanded.

Determined to make the best of that era of peace while it lasted, you threw yourself into your studies. As you grew to adulthood, you became ...

>An adventurer, travelling bravely into the unknown.
