You are in command over the Imperial Japanese Battleship Hyuga, starting at the very beginning of December 1941. Due to the will of players and that of the dice, history may go quite differently from what we know. For all intents and purposes, this is a wargame. It is incredibly important that you check the Pastebin link to familiarize yourself with the relatively simple dice mechanics, and to check it somewhat often as I may change important details of it as time goes on.

Last time on Hyuga Quest, we tanked through 15" gunfire, torpedoes, and bombs, which caused us to lose time to repairs. However, we were retrofitted with the 38 cm/52 Type 17 Naval Gun.

Your superiors give you a simple choice, with little explantion...

Oh hell yeah! This is one of the best scavenging sites you've ever stumbled upon! Guess not too many people are stupid enough to go into a zone as irradiated as this but he'll they're missing out! You grab as much as you can fit in your duffel bag and walk out of the building with a smile on your face and get a nice safe distance away. You pull down the hood on your head and start pulling at the rubbery mask on your head to slip it right off. You tug and pull at the thing until your skin has marks on it. It won't budge no matter where you approach from. Fear sets in as you realize that the cells in your skin may have fused with the material in your mask.


>To the east you know there's a settlement with a sorta trained doctor that could help you out, but you'd need to sell everything but the clothes on your back to afford treatment along with the fee to enter the town gates. To the north is another settlement, though it forgoes medical treatment for the luxury of a whore house. Where should we journey to first?

Demons. Eldjötnar. Oni. Asura. Jinn. Monsters.

Whatever they are called, they now rule the world. On December 21st, 2012, the barrier separating Earth from what is now called the Eskathos ruptured, and these twisted creatures emerged from the Breach to gorge themselves upon the flesh and souls of humanity and sate their endless appetite for wrath, pride, envy, insincerity, falseness, boasting, and bellicosity.

Mad Wendigo spreads frozen wastelands and devours all those unlucky enough to cross its path. Radiant Lucifer spreads his devout cult of personality throughout the world. Jealous Andhaka abducts the wives of his despairing subjects. Two-faced Shezmu drowns northern Africa in orgies of wine and blood. Hidden Vucub-Caquix usurps day and night in South America. Arrogant Arachne weaves her monstrous fashion out of hair shaved from the heads of beautiful maidens. Evil-eyed Balor wages war and battle in Ireland and its neighbors to expand his kingdom.

Demons were not the only ones to return, however. Soon after the Breach opened, the Relics awakened their power. Only these men and women, mortal embodiments of divine weapons and tools, hold the power to match the forces of the Eskathos.

Excalibur and its Sheath arose first, followed by the Thunderbolt, the Tower of Babel, the Brahmastra, Gungnir, the Was and the Smoking Mirror.

The Relics defend human civilization and gather their strength until the day comes when they can lay siege to the Breach and assail the Eskathos itself.

You are one of them.

The plane ride over was uneventful, and most everyone was tired by the time you arrived.

After today's briefing, you observe as the Junior Poles make a couple of sacrifices to the shrine of the Marquis de La Fayette. Several other students gather around it as well, mostly the new girls. “Protect us, Marquis! We offer you sacrifices of sodapop, candy, and uh...” Serafina holds up some pink panties. She looks over at her gunner, who simply meekly smiles. “... right.” She tosses the panties onto the shrine. You roll your eyes. Superstition never won a match. But you're not going to be the buzzkill today, especially since it's drawing the Poles closer to the new girls.

For now though, you were mostly wandering around. The spectator fair was quite dusty, thanks to being in the middle of nowhere in New Mexico. It's not like New Mexico ever made anything nice according to your Dad. And unfortunately for your parents, they simply could not afford to fly out to the midwest to cheer for you in person.

That doesn't mean they won't do it by phone though. You shudder.

Still, everyone was gearing up for the match, making themselves look pretty, the whole lot. The Light Music Club especially were testing out the loudspeaker they fitted onto the top of the Jagdtiger. “Alright!” yells Jane Fogerty. “Play it!” A loud screech whines from the loudspeaker, shocking everyone. “AH! TURN IT OFF! TURN IT OFF!” It cuts out.

“Well,” says Iris as she wipes her ear with her finger. “Perhaps you can stun the enemy with controlled bursts of static, Miss Fogerty.”

As you walk around however, you look down. Huh? You pick something up.

Oh, it's a Bandaged Bear. You look at the tag. No, it's a Boko Bear. Huh, Japanese. Does this belong to somebody?

> Turn it in to lost and found.
> Walk around, see if you can find the owner.
> Keep it, maybe it's a good luck omen. Not that you believe on those.

Oh shit nigger(s) it's the aftermath of Civ Thing and all the tribes who inhabitited the nondescript generic fantasy land has all been enslaved (in varying degrees) by The Kingdom ruling the aforementioned nondescript generic fantasy land.
Now they must either accept their fate or break out and free their own tribe. Other tribes optional.

Your current protagonist is Barbmom, a barbarian, uh, mom, who managed to escape her tribe's enslavement.

Currently you're in hiding and planning a way to assassinate the King to free your peoples. What do?

Roll 1d100, who gets the highest number is the picked action.

As several people from the crowd approach you, you turn to Emi as covertly as you can.

"What?" You ask. "I thought we were celebrating the successful mission"
Fran reaches over and ruffles your hair. "Originally, yes" She says. "But then someone had the idea of doing this"

"A birthday party?" You ask. "But I don't know my birthday"
Ilica claps you on the back. "You do now" She says.
You blink a few times. "You guys just decided to make it today?" You ask.

Stella is the first to come out from the crowd, with the munchkin in her arms. "It was her idea" she says. "When we starting talking about having a party for you, she asked if it was your birthday"
"Honk birfday!" Munchkin says.
"So we asked if anyone knew when it was,and when we told her that you didn't have one, she said that it must be today!" Stella says, as she and the munchkin give you a hug.

You keep staring forward, dumbstruck.

"Okay, you've gotta give me something here" She says. "Do you like it?"

>It's great!

>Wouldn't my birthday be the day I came out of the cave?

>Why the surprise?

Your plane touched down in the unknown city without a sound. Your taxi from the airport to the city was uneventful but the smell of a multicultural mediterranean city surrounded by unknown island.

Your driver is a heavy set italian man, he drives with one hand on the wheel and another on a cigar with smoke blowing out hte open window. He's talkative, whether you listen or not.

Things are weird here. The airport looked upside down as you rode away. Your cab driver mentioned something about the satanist gangs fighting the viking gangs in the barrio. You're pretty sure he mentioned something about baboons. An old newspaper on the seat talks about something called scratches... they look like personal ads but you don't remember personal ads talking about mutant escorts or something called a sciencedrug, which seems redundant.

The road to the city was short, rural looking, woods and large isolited estates.

There is a light drizzle blowing in through the open windows and it smells like Ethiopian food, maybe. You've heard rumors about this place, this city, the Edge. You can find anything here, they say. Maybe you can find that person who went missing.

Whowere they?
(1) Your lost lover.
(2) Your former best friend.
(3) Your relative.

Feel free to toss out details that sound fun, about them, about you, or about something else. You're a blank slate right now. I'll be running character creation and game start concurrently.

This game is based on the Over the Edge. I'll check back in 15 minutes.

Hello and welcome back to Mortal Kombat Konquest! On today's episode, we are going to get the perspective of someone outside the New Defenders, but closely linked to one of them: Kotal Kahn, Emperor of Outworld and adoptive father of the thief prince Cao Kahnzedah.

In recent events, Noob Saibot attempted to unleash a deadly plague through the use of a magic orb by seeping his necrotic essence into the heroes of old in order to lure the New Defenders into his realm and destroy them. But this failed when he was suddenly betrayed by his supposed ally Havik, and due to the intervention of Shang Tsung, the heroes emerged from the Netherrealm with the orb in hand.

With the magic disease gone, our Emperor (who was himself afflicted) awakens to the news, and is none too pleased...

You are Adrian Brown, a twenty five year-old third-year medical student living an otherwise normal American life in search of employment. That was until you woke up inside a derelict and demon-infested hospital with four other victims of short-term memory loss. Together, the five of you managed to somehow survive by negotiating with demons and defeating those that were not so amicable. And upon escaping, the all of you realized that it wasn’t as simple as that.

Task Force 666 a multinational organization dedicated to combating hostile demons and those that would use them for ill intentions. And the hellhole you just went through? That was your ‘job interview’, one that you passed with flying colors. When properly offered employment as an agent among the ranks, you accepted without too much hesitation or second thoughts. Duty to humanity and whatnot.

You are now a Devil Summoner in the service of the Task Force, and the de-facto leader of East Coast Operations Division IV Carina Squad. It is your duty to protect mankind from all threats involving the demonic, but how you choose to carry out your orders is entirely up to you. The choices you make shall not only affect those around you, but the fate of the entire world itself…

[Wednesday, July 3rd, 2015, 3:46 PM]

It takes a few minutes for the squad to calm down, not that you’re in that much of a hurry to go and stop them. The ambush that you just executed was nothing short of flawless in every aspect of the definition. Sure, Lham Dearg got turned into a popsicle, but that shouldn’t be too much of a problem considering the signs for healers back in the faerie realm.

And if there is a problem…eh, you can just take it up with Titania.

The five of you settle down, eventually moving to take care of your own business. Victoria’s demons have already been recalled, and from the looks of her COMP, she’s transmitting a status update to Central. The rest of you move forward to the clearing of dead demons, each at your own cautious pace.

“Damn,” Fitz mutters, moving up to inspect the carcass of the Wendigo. A pointed nudge with the tip of her sneakers causes the head to detach right off the spinal column. “We really fucked ‘em up! And I was lookin’ forward to mountin’ that rack of antlers on my wall…”

>Your job as a maid and hitman is simple; Protect the young master from the shadows, and be the best maid you possibly can.

-----------------------
(1/2)
The blonde maid's eyes remained on the table in front of her, where the invitation in a white envelope lay. Her gaze didn't waver, as the young boy paced slowly on the opposite side of the room. The rest of the staff were going about their business, with the exception of the two girls eavesdropping by the large double doors. Both figures in the entertainment room remained silent, the topic of the last ten minutes still hanging in the air. The young boy finally turned, setting his palm firmly on the table.

“Elisabeth, I don't need to remind you that you are a maid, correct?”

“No, young master.” Elisabeth's eyes didn't waver, as she continued boring a hole into the envelope on the table.

“This party is something I have to attend as the owner of the Vermilion Industry and Technological Enterprise Incorporated. It is a party for owners and their relatives, not the staff. Why are you so adamant on going? There has to be a reason; I know you wouldn't ask for something without reason.” Alexander's tone became inquisitive, as he looked across the table at the blonde maid. Her eyes never left the envelope.

“I feel the most confident when you are nearby, young master.” Elisabeth's tone remained monotonous. Nothing had happened in the last four months. After the attack on the mansion by the Modification Wing and the assault by the hobos, nothing had happened. She couldn't shake the terrifying feeling that something serious was just around the corner. Something bad. But, even with that, she couldn't tell this young boy. To do so would mean betraying everything she'd done to this point in order to remain the perfect maid. Her emerald eyes finally left the envelope, as she flashed a perfect smile at Alexander. “I'm just worried you might dirty your clothes or something similar during the party, requiring my aid.”

“Elisabeth...I'm not a child. I'll be going alone with my grandfather.” Alexander's eyes narrowed, before the young boy glanced away wearily. He walked to the doorway, pulling it open. Both Faith and Karin fell to the ground within, as he walked past them briskly. Elisabeth's hands relaxed from the balled-up fists they had been. Alexander's stubborn nature was going to kill him; that upset the maid more than anything else. She rose from her seated position, walking up to the two girls. Both rose to kneeling positions, one looking sheepish and the other embarrassed.

"Follow me, I'll explain on the way" You lead them into the school, passing by crowds of students wandering the halls. Eventually, you managed to get lower and lower into the school, dumping exposition upon the trio the whole way as they tried to deal with the memories.

"I... think this is the way into the vault" you pause at a crossroads, pointing and taking a step.

"And just why would you, a witch, and three of my top students need to get in there?"

You whirl, finding Death himself standing behind the group, looking... curious? You weren't sure, it was just a vibe you were getting from him.
