When we left off, you were standing at the mouth of one of the many tunnels on this unnamed, poisonous, evil world, fifth from its star. You are investigating the disappearance of 2 of your subordinate Knights. You have brung Knight Erzai, a Marksman, Knight Tatania, a Pegasus Operator, and Knight Maat, a Medic.
Your Seraphim pack is currently offline in the tunnel. Markus and Malakir are both onboard your carrier, in orbit.

Part 6 – Session 1

The Astral Plane is a place of dull, hazy light, infinite space, and unchanging nature. Naught grows here, little lives here, and the artifacts of mind and spirit are scattered across its expanse. But there are some features which are ever-present, even omnipresent. The Curtains of Color, which are the boundaries of the physical realms which may be reached through the Astral. The Astral Fundament itself, ectoplasmic and ephemeral, the soft silver glow of the Astral Plane.

The Dead Gods.

Here are the bones, the blood, the petrifying flesh, and perhaps the presence of ancient beings of nigh infinite power, laid low through means unknown and perhaps even unknowable. The Dead Gods are nothing more or less than their names suggest, and yet there is power here, secrets to be learned, mysteries to be studied. Here an ancient wyrm lives, a creature of alien intellect and of vast power. Here a mysterious living void, a tiny blot of umbral darkness hunts, haunts, a thing like a living Sphere of Annihilation that may be a guardian, or may be confined to this place. Here the Blood of the Dead Gods has been spilled or poured, strange liquors and odd ichors flowing and pulsing, carrying unknown power. Alien geometries are the norm his, and in this place there is light and shadow in abundance, and all that can lie between.

Or beyond.

The Astral is a place devoid of life, save the very strange life that has taken root and wrests existence away from the infinite grey of the plane. What life that may be native is alien in every conceivable manner. Time does not pass here: there is no hunger nor thirst, no growth nor healing, and little change. Except in the Garden of the Dead Gods. Here, there is life and change in abundance.

You do not know who planted the first stelae in this slightly concave platform with the hole in the center that leads to other places within the realm that is called the Dead Gods'. Nor do you know what seeds were planted, or how. But the beauty is real and inescapable. The patters in the stone are lined with deep grooves of what could be water, or could be something stranger and more potent. Or, it is possible, poisonous. But from this shining liquid emerge tendrils of life, green in the grey expanse of petrified God-Flesh, vines which bear flowers of violet and blue, of red and yellow. Strange flowers, but flowers nonetheless.

General rules:

There is a 10 minute voting period after each post. Non-contradictory votes will be combined as best as possible.

Write-ins for all votes are always welcome and encouraged. They may not all make it into the post or be altered to fit in, but I'll do my best to at least try to address the spirit of the write-in.

Very important or contentious votes may be redone in a stricter voting system as circumstances warrant.

Combat mechanics are up in the air. Suggestions are welcome. We'll be trying some new things out so I appreciate your patience as we fine tune it. Stronger moves tend to take more time and have more cooldown than weaker moves, so beware of that timing. I also want to try a more varied turn system so you and your opponent can do a few things in a row more often. Speed is more important for closing ground, intercepting, and other things and doesn't necessarily mean going first.

Call me out on a mistake and receive a suggestive picture.

Welcome to DCAQ. Here we follow our hero Isaac Morrison or as the world may soon know him Oceanus, in his adventures in the DC universe. Last thread we took out some blockheads with our water and ice powers, but things took a serious turn when the authorities turned their attention from the stolen blockbuster serum to the suspected metahuman who captured it's users in ice. Leaving town was the only rational option. We decided to head clear across the nation to LA where our family friend informs us is the last known location of our father who has been gone for over a year now.

As for rules, there will be options after most updates to vote on. The option with the most votes wins after 10 minutes or a specified amount of time. I may call a vote early if I am prepared with the writing and it becomes overwhelmingly in favor of 1 option. Some action require rolls on a 1d100 crits on 1-2 and 99-100, I will call for a roll after an option has won and only the first 3 rolls after I call it count. Write ins are always welcome, I have veto power on them and may assign a roll. With all that said let's get this show on the road.

I've had an idea, /qst/, and that idea is a new type of civilization thread, one that's focused on settling and taming a new land, and then actually managing to subsistence and prosperity of your people. Rather than rolling a d20 to hunt for sheep, for example, you'll need to arm some of the few people you have, find some way to train them, and locate some sheep to be hunted. Then you'll need to manage the stocks of food closely, and so on.

Rather than "Food for two turns", you'll have a larder filled with certain foods, and you'll need to keep your people fed. We'll be getting to know our civmembers a lot more closely than normal. Think of something between a civilization and a normal quest.

With the basic idea of a more closely managed, small scale, subsistence civ game established, let's get started.

We need three votes for the race of our little expedition, and three votes for where it is going to set down it's roots. Insects are the only race that is completely out, we can sort everything else out. We can have an Aasimar monastery tending for the local tribes, or a daemonic cult trying to survive in the wastelands to await their overlords. We can have Cyclops herding sheep, Ogres trudging between human villages to pillage them for their pigs and turnips.

This is probably going to alternate between comfy and starving very often, so if that sounds like your jam, please hop in and get voting.

THE STORY SO FAR: You are Umbaroth, Blue Dragon of the Gregon Forests. You came to the Sanshira Deserts to make a name for yourself. Along the way, you managed to make a deal with the sultan to marry his daughter if you rid him of the rebels. Also, your mother came to help you along with your brothers and sisters.
-----
"Ah, Lord Umbaroth! I wanted to see you off before you left for your battle. With you on the field, surely the rebels will break and disband!"

The Sultan smiles a wide smile and raises his hands above his shoulders. Ten men sit atop horses in the stables, all of them looking towards the sultan. Genreral Nekzar sits atop a large tiger in armor. Nekzar taps on the tiger's reigns impatiently, it seems he wants to leave. Ferah is standing next to her father, wearing much more acceptable clothing. Behind him stands a very scared looking Lania. As you look at her, she averts her gaze, trying to avoid eye contact with the being that brought her to her knees. You smile and looks back to the sultan.

>Before, I go, I must tell you a very interesting story as to what happened last night.
>If that is all, I will take my leave. *Take your dragon form and fly away towards the town.*
>Where is my horse?

> [[ Underground: Lower Averron – Tethiss’s Claw // PVP Enabled ]]

You pass through subterranean tunnels far removed from civilization. The beating of footsteps – an army of distant allies – reverberates through the caverns overhead, dislodging bits of rock and dust that rouse you to alertness as they tumble down around you. It’s dark here; patches of bioluminescent mushrooms sprawl across the walls and dot the floors, faintly lighting a trail that winds deep into the underground.

The rock formations are roughly hewn and unfamiliar in their shape. Cut from a different type of stone, they appear out-of-place at best and somehow-malicious at worst. Thick threads, white and wispy – spiders’ webs – stretch between them, roped around the stalagmites in reticulated stretches and swaths. There’s little pitter-patters on the ceiling. You might see movement in the shadows when you gaze overhead, though you want to believe that your eyes deceive you.

You and your group exchange nervous glances, while Freya – the current leader of Freakshow, who seems to know a fair bit about this place – leads you along the path. You travel with a necessary air of caution, the lot of you remaining quiet. You are on a mission of utmost importance: travel to some supernatural seam deep beneath the earth, and seal or otherwise inactivate it before Averron City is overwhelmed by protohuman creatures from beyond.

“How much longer?” Aelriss asks. “I get the sense we’re on borrowed time.”

“Not much, but deeper still beneath us.” Freya says, turning over her shoulder and smiling. “Once we reach the end of this branch, we will have a fair distance to descend.”

“This is getting seriously sketch, lady.” Crow shakes his head. Tatsumaki nods, seeming to agree with the sentiment; Smith, however, seems rather unperturbed still. “We’re all sort of giving you the benefit of the doubt, here.”

“Just be careful.” You nod. “We can’t afford to m—“

The ground is uneasy where your foot next falls – a loose organization of rocks gives way to reveal a thin spiderweb beneath.

A pitfall trap?

The world is yet new. Men and beasts still grapple for control over the great plains and woods, and the first cities are still far in the distance. Life consists of hunting, gathering, and the first stirrings of agriculture. The world is vicious, but such a state suits many perfectly.

Bands of hunters have begun to gather together around mages or family heads, and these new bonds are bringing the strength to fight back.
