Welcome readers to Scrumptious Calem and Kuudere Serena's Tubular Voyage, a ridiculously wacky over-the-top monster-of-the-week reinterpretation of the plot of Pokemon X and Y! This story has moved from /vp/ after being hosted there since Oct. 2013, if you're new and this is your first time with us, please consider catching up with the dropbox archives in the Chapter Directory for the latest on our lore and inside jokes or sit down and enjoy the ride with little-to-no context whatsoever! Either way, you're in for a show!

Story interactivity is simple: readers will frequently be given ABC-style choices over several intervals in the thread, the choice with the most votes wins and progresses the chapter. Ties are randomized and players are notoriously penalized for simultaneously voting for more than one choice unless otherwise stated. Sometimes, the choice is a "fill-in-the-blank", and you will be tasked with thinking of the ideal scenario for the story to continue ("What do you do next?"). The response that garners the most reader-support often has the best chance of winning. Now enough explanations, any longer and Gen VII will have come out! Enjoy! Bewear prevo is bleh, sandcastle ghosts are cool, Wishiwashi's gimmick is interesting, Pyukumuku is great, Morellul is cute, Alolan Meowth is gay but the STAB Technician Bite-with-no-drawbacks game is ridiculous, Alolan Marowak is edgy but a cool edgy, Alolan Raichu is a little ugly desu, Team Skull's motives being grounded in reality is a sincere sweet relief.

"Haaaaaaawluuuuuuuuuuu!!"

>Luchy used Me First!
>Luchy tried to cut ahead of the opposing Flygon!

>Luchy used Dragon Rush with greater force!

"CHA!"

Luchy spreads his wings wide open and lets out a piercing, passionate caw, gestures fiercely echoed by the dragon spirit enveloping him. And then, in the blink of an eye—he springs forward in a burst of blue energy, a certain antlion in his crosshairs.

"Flllly!!"

Flygon regains control of itself not a moment too soon and mimics Luchy's drive with an ear-shattering screech. Their unbridled tension culminates to peak levels as the two take to the field, instigating a deadly game of cat and mouse where the endgame is to see who can Dragon Rush who first and live to tell about it.

As for who is the cat, and who is the mouse, that's anyone's guess.

Hello again fellow creators and questers. It's been a while since I've had the time to do this, but finally I have a period of time to run another EvoGame series. The goal of this game/quest series is to see how far the evolution of these critters go, and to make a thriving ecosystem of creatures and aberrations.

As GM, I'll do my best to actively work on phylogeny charts to track the evolutions, and also make random events for the world to drive evolution down new paths. Since I've done this a few times now, and taken the time to observe/lurk on other EvoGames, I've picked up a few new tricks to keep everything organized and streamline too.

How to play:
• Open an image of a species in MS Paint, or your editor of choice
• Make one evolutionary change to that species
• Save as .PNG!
• Post your new species in the thread with a description of what evolution you've added and why.
• Details indicating what the generation of your species is important. Please indicate. (Base Organisms are Generation 0)
• Details regarding a creatures size or name aren't necessary, but are encouraged.
• Nothing too outlandish. Anything incredibly silly or outlandish will not be considered a canon species 95% of the time.

Notes:
• Unless stated explicitly, no species ever goes extinct. Old species can still evolve, even if they're not on the latest "chain"
• Try to make your evolutions gradual and realistic in biological standards.
• Every 9-10 hours I'll add an update Phylogeny Chart to track changes. These take awhile, so please be patient.
• Every 12-24 hours I'll be rolling for a Random World Event.
• Every 72 hours will mark the end of an era with a mass extinction. This particular one will occur on August 21st.
• Have fun

New to the Game?:
• Imgur Gallery detailing the history of this EvoGame up until now be found here http://imgur com/a/KI3ku
• In this thread and in the imgur gallery will be a Blank Template that you can use to make any organisms you wish to make for this game.
• Just a note, while it doesn't matter how intertwined your organism is with the rest of ecosystem, the more dependent it is on the existence of other creatures, the more potential your organism has to survive.

Well, shit – looks like you ran out of solar charge…again. You really should watch that meter more closely. The rings of Saturn do look beautiful when you’re just floating through space, though.

That said, you’d better not hang around. If pirates do dare operate in the Sol system, it’s because they’ve got fast ships and the weapons to boot. Oh well, you just need to fiddle around with that proton distributor…realign the gravity wells…aaand…restart!

Perfect, your old S-class purrs back to life. Looks like you’ll have to fill out the information log again, though. So, what’ll it be?

One post for:

>Your name?
>Your age?
>Your profession?
>Your main skill? (pick from Combat, Social, or Engineering to get a +1 to rolls)

Another post for:

>Ship’s name?
>Planet of origin?
>Current destination?

Roll a d100 with your choices and I'll take highest wins!

Ok guys, let's do an irl quest! I'll be the main character and post pictures of my actions, determined by you anons!
RULES:
TURN (left, right, about): I shall turn in increments of 90 degrees to the left, right, or behind me and take a photo.
INVESTIGATE (object): I will take a photo of the thing in question (or simply give a description if it is a person) and describe it.
GET (object): I will pick up the item if possible, but I will not steal.
Other than that, I will follow most commands and always add a photo. However, I will not do anything that will easily get me arrested (i.e. public indecency, theft, trespass, assault, etc) but I will do stupid LEGAL things in public.
Let's begin!

>I wake up and sit up. I seem to be in some sort of forest. The bugs are loud. With me is a cigarette pack with three smokes, some weed in a tube with a one-hitter, and a lighter. I also have a little money. What do I do?

Welcome to Starborn Quest. A quest of bullshit and just like my DMing I have built a nice little lego set to let my players loose in.

This quest will be fairly dice lite. With dice only being rolled for certain options. I'm thinking I'll be rolling best of 1d100 with crits.

But whatever, let's get into it.

You woke up with your ears ringing and head aching. It feels like you took on a bear and lost. Hell, even your eyes are stinging in the afternoon sun.

But what were you doing? Before all this pain you don't remember anything; not even your name. In a state of suprising calm you look down and see:

> Long Purple hair and Breasts. Guess you're female then.

> A flat chest, a furtive glance in your trousers reveals you are in fact a boy..

Deep in the mountains, where trees wither within the once fertile soil of a fallen Kingdom that had knowledge unmatched sits the once mighty keep that defended this kingdom until the end of it's days when civil war destroyed it and most of the knowledge.

Now, the Keep served one newer master yet he was not considered young by even the elves. Though he had long since retired into his own study of magic and took on an apprentice to take on the world.

Yet he had much knowledge, and for a Lich he clearly had time to make his apprentice a master of at least one art when he stole him away from his parents as part of an ancient bargain with his ancestors. Now, how did this ancient lich teach his young still living apprentice how to take the world on his own?

A: Classic Battle Strategy: Ah a love of most Necromancers focuses on precise control over very specific amounts of the undead but increases their power the more focused they are. Giving bonuses to larger combats due to planning and not blind rushes.

B: Horde Bringer: While the Tactician focuses like a dagger, the Horde Bringer cuts like a very large blunt ax. While controlling huge amounts of undead who are little more than cannon fodder. They control the most undead, though they are the least likely to gain loyal intelligence.

C: The Bone Blade: An ancient art, though more akin to a Battle Mage these undead masters are akin to Paladins and Fighters with small squads of more powerful undead. They are the most powerful physically and do their best work in a Hands on approach to control.

He will bring about an odd age to this world, if he will use his Art of Ill or Good will be up to his own choices as the Lich is going into his own slumbering to observe and not meddle with his apprentices work.

First to three Wins this.

This is the story of Delilah- a young, poor, desperate youth who chose to escape the hell that was her home- her mother uncaring, and as it was discovered, abusive, no father, and little hope. She now is in desperate straits attempting to live on the street, after various hells have descended upon her in short order with her newfound 'freedom'. With a strange affliction and a deadly situation at hand, will you manage to stumble into the light of joy, or fall into darkness of hate?

This is an alternate version of the currently running Melancholic Quest, as you may have already guessed by the title. While I am NOT aCowboyNamedSue (my name is in honor of her, however), I DO have her explicit permission to do this, and she's even been gracious enough to provide interesting factoids and tidbits about certain parts of the setting and quest history to better aid me. There will be no future spoilers in this version of the story, however, because...things are different.

Make no mistake, this is Delilah. But do NOT expect things to work quite like in Melancholic Quest Prime, whether they be certain plot points, choice outcome, or in some cases, character personality. This is not that story. Depending on you, it may be a similar story, even darker than MQ Prime, or maybe, juuuuuust maybe a touch lighter... but either way, it will NOT be quite the same.

After a good night spent in the Azure Haven and with its mistress and owner, Arras Sahlak, you and Tia emerge from that particular district of Gem on your way back to the safehouse you agreed on, provided by Nerus Dell, in the low quarter of the city.

"I still feel like you're the one who got played." Tia doesn't seem in a good mood, but you can't figure out why.

"Well, you give some and take some." You justify yourself. "I can't ask house Sahlak to put their neck on the line for my sake."

"Why not?" She growls. "I thought you were the queen."

"Princess." You correct her with a smile. "And it's not that easy. In Gem, the noble trade houses have a lot of political and economic power, and no one can sit in the Despot's throne without their approval. Not having house Sahlak as an enemy is already enough."

"You're being too cautious." She's still grumbling. "We should just kick the palace doors down and paint it with blood."

"If the Realm figures out that a bunch of Anathema is taking over Gem, they're going to cut the food shipments from the Lap and just starve the city out." You remind her.

"...Maybe people shouldn't build cities where there's no food." She shrugs. "Sometimes I think that the elder Lunars ARE right and civilization IS dumb."

"Or we could just be careful." You get the final word in before reaching Nerus's safehouse. You knock seven times and receive one knock in response before the door opens.

Inside, huddled around a table with only two candles for light, is your little team of co-conspirators: Zareen, Radiant Starfall, Talon, Aexel, Lynne, Karas, Mikahil and Valeriana.

"Nerus' not here?" You wonder, tossing your white cloak aside.

Radiant Starfall shakes her head. "He needs to show his face around or people will get suspicious."

"Well, he already helped us more than enough, we can't really ask more of him." Mikahil adds. "He's been great help."

You sit down at the table. "So, progress report."

Aexel and Valeriana shake their heads in unison. "We've tried the libraries and did some research, but we couldn't find anything particularly relative to recent events." The Twilight explains.

You turn to Karas.

"Rankar didn't just enlist the Flying Blade's help. He's offered to employ some of the city's martial arts masters and teachers, and several bore got their schools and dojos closed." He notes. "I don't know how much of this is part of a specific plan, and how much of it is just paranoia and making sure that no one's gonna set up an organized, armed resistance to his rule."

"I've been to the market, and it's bustling. Economically, Gem is doing amazingly well. I've got to hand it to this Rankar guy, he's got decent business sense. Still, I didn't see anything particularly suspicious there, except maybe..."

"What?"

"Tax breaks and lower tariffs and higher incentives for Realm traders. I think Rankar is subtly trying to butter them up. Maybe he's trying to strengthen his ties with the Realm."

You decide with the day still early, to answer an immediate worry – namely, that black envelope that Fingers had given to you yesterday. Fingers had been adamant on the manner of which that he wanted this particular order of business to go, and you weren’t a person to refuse someone with that honest a look on his face.

Moving over to your table and turning the key on the drawer, you take the article out and pocket it into one of your cargo-accommodating pockets; it’s the easiest thing for you to do, so you think you might as well get it out of the way before you forget about it.

You make your way out the door, hearing the bumps and cries of the KanMusu upstairs, getting ready for the day’s work. Today would be the last day of rest – for what measure of rest it had been, anyway – and tomorrow you’d be up to your nose in assignments again, right as the world kept spinning. You close the door behind you as the racket upstairs picks up, rubbing your hands immediately for heat as the cool morning air hits you as badly as any north wind would.

You spare a glance at the ocean, a mite more violent than the serene picture it had been the day before, waves rocking and wind blowing.

Once you’re at the entrance, you see that no one else is around – the bustle of the maintenance crew is absent, as is the usual odd number of folks walking up at down. Even though it’s this early, you expected some form of activity.

Just as you think so, a large truck thunders from down the street and right past you, leaving a gust of wind in its wake.

Blinking as you turn around, you see not the symbol of the Admiralty, but the Imperial Army. Odd.

Thinking none of of it, you make your way to Mamiya’s – along the way you see a few faces but not much. It really is a bit too early, you suppose. You stop in front of Mamiya’s not a half an hour or so later.

Open for business, you think.

You bite your lip, lifting the black envelope to your nose and giving it a better look. A feeling comes over you as you turn it one way, then the other, frowning as you look at the sealed flap. Your curiosity threatens to take over.

Fingers trusts you, and you trust him – but a black envelope usually never spelled anything good for the recipient.

>Open the envelope
>Leave it closed and deliver it
>Write-In
