hey, art is useful, it exalts the spirit and makes it worth for civilization to exists, you know? as a former artist, i resent that comment.

Even if I feel like nodding along.

Ah, it reminds me of something a family elder told me once "the most useful and useless of all the crafts"

Any ideas for names? almost all succubus names are based on light phenomena.

First, the Magician draws a Pentagram. A sketched enclosure that is laced with enchantments to do various things to demons, everything from immobilize them to silence them, the runes were manipulated in any number of fashions to create different results, depending on your creativity.

Second - The magician must then invoke the True Name of the Demon in question. True Names are found by a special few Magicians who manage to find a friendly demon who exchanges life on Earth in the Magician's service in exchange for True Names. Huge libraries of names had been collected by families and bloodlines, some hidden and some public, and many more were being discovered daily.

Third - The Demon is summoned and Bound with a task. The "Task" is the demon's purpose for existing on Earth. An example being "Protect me" and the demon would then follow a general order to protect you, though any experienced magician knows that you need to be more detailed for safety, like- "Protect me from physical harm from assailants"

---

You were now on that second step; the demon was forming, and you mustered up as much courage as you could.

"YOU WILL SERVE ME DEMON," your voices hitches but you keep going, " You will exist only to be a servant and confidant for me, protecting me from those who wish to bring harm to me or my goals, and you will be secretive in your doings." You gasp for breath as you finish, and the creature fills the circle fully, occluded from your sight by smoke.

You hear a snap and the ridiculous caricature of a Satyr-like demon stands before you, almost joking in its features: Large buggy eyes, small ears, huge horns, a breast that is sagging and a breast that remains pert, huge male genetalia that embarrasses you, and of course cloven hooves.

"Is this the part where you piss yourself boy?" A voice echoes throughout your head, immediately your instincts snap you back in to focus and you raise a hand.

"Unless otherwise stated you will speak to me only verbally or by writing." You press your hand to the pentagram and the demon hisses with slight pain.

It opens its mouth and laughs, a horrible crackling sound, and a voice at home on a crone is emitted -

"So, what are you? A child? I'm being summoned by a child?!" The demon seems pissed, "Summoned by the likes of Antony, Alexander, and now this, a babe? What do you want from me child?!"

> " I want you to make me the most powerful man in London... No, the World. You will use your power to see my goals to completion, whatever they may be, to see myself of the throne of power."

> " I want you to use your powers to make me rich, make me the richest man you can find, I will live life in luxury and bliss as a man unbound by law itself."

> " I want you to use your powers to make me wise, smarter than even the grandest and eldest scholar in mind. You will help me collect a knowledge base that makes Aristotle jealous. We will change the world with my mind."

Good, ElvesIslands locked. I began drawing a map like 10 minutes ago, and I'll start writing in a bit. Since I'm not sure of a good beginning for Elves, I'll play this one a little more 'traditional' civbuilder-wise, with a little bit less character interaction than what I'm used to, and a little bit more stats and civ decisions (so time will pass faster ingame than it did in my previous thread. If you disagree please say so)

. A red crystal also covers her heart. The ground beneath her rises, as if trying to meet her hand. She’s surrounded by scores of genuflecting people, all wearing robes and simple clothing, unlike the ornate gown that the woman they’re bowing to is clad in. You examine the other sides of the coffin, to see an intricate mural of the same woman leading a chariot charge. Out of the corner of your eye, you can spot the crystals adorning the woman glowing with a dull light, and the sarcophagus opens ever so slightly.

Not running quite so well as I'd hoped.

>>421947
I find absolute freedom pointless.

I could just write and make something up myself if I wanted to. I don't need you to do that.

I expect the OP to be the seller of a world, of a reality beyond my will or control, that I can strive towards a goal in. Obstacles and treasures, so that our choices feel meaningful.

But if we're the ones who prompt everything, what's the point? We could write our own story.

So, that's my honest opinion, sorry. :/

>>421960
I'm asking for story on a character that is meant to be player controlled. The world exists around them, I'm only asking for what their character is and what they do. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

"Watch out!"

This time it's Hiss who pulls you to safety, reaching down and grabbing you by the shoulders and pulling you up atop the wall with her just in time to avoid a tidal wave of pigment that crashes against the wall.
And then it rises once more, a wall of liquid red that completely surrounds the mansion and the gardens from all sides.

"Get ready to fight!," Hiss hollers. "It is upon us!"

"Quickly!," another voice rings out. It's Aqua, pushing a makeshift cart with her good hand and accompanied by one of the hollow alchemists. You can't remember his name.
The cart is filled with bottles.
"Everyone take a potion. Take it now!"

The wall of red parts and you can see spirits emerging through it like deep-sea monsters and behind them, a sea of hands.

>Stay by Hiss' side.

>Help defend other parts of the perimeter.

>Take to the sky and seek out the Gatekeeper himself.

this reeks of a trap, they had time...and this is the best they can do? they think us fools. caution is todays watchword.

Last Time on Hero Guardian Quest: Knight-Commanders Hua Sing and Ishimura was introduced where they operate on the Eastern Front in the Lost Forest Realm, past the broken barrier. Information on what happened 3 years ago when the barrier broke is revealed and the woman possibly behind it all is revealed by title; the Queen, who’s said to be the leader of the religious cult worshiping the Red Flower and is in charge of the men leading the Masked Humans.

Over at the Western Front, Captain Lin is struggling to cope with the loss of Jin and how to deal with Mei when she awakens to find the Awoo she had developed feelings for, dead. After fleeing the scene, Lin chased Mei into a clearing further into the forest where they confronted each other in the middle of the hard pouring rain. Drama ensued before the Red Flower awoke within Lin and warned her of incoming Masked Men. She sent Mei away to fetch Chao and Heim before coming face to face with the five humans encircling her.

After a long and grueling fight, Captain Lin comes out victorious after killing three of them and the last two tried to blow themselves up alongside her, but failed. Chao, Heim, and Mei came back to the clearing just in time to see the masked men explode into cinder as well, setting aflame to the forest.

Ishimura train his sight upon the scene before him; unconscious and wounded town’s people lies amidst pieces of crushed barrels and pools of wine covering the ground. Most of the Knight-Commander’s men appeares unharmed, except for one man who has a gash over his left eye, blood trailing its way down over his closed eyelid and ending by his upper lip. There’s at least 4 unconscious people, but none of them seems to be more hurt than some light bruises. It feels good to know the men pulled their punches against these people.

“What happened here?” Hua Sing, Knight-Commander and the de facto Leader of this town gives way to her voice and let her presence be known to all parties involved. All the chatter dies down in seconds upon hearing the Lady nearby. No one wish to scorn her. She scans the scene before her eyes land on the wounded one of Ishimura’s knights. The name escapes him right now, but Ollie would know of him in a heartbeat. Where is the good boy anyway?

“You there. Identify yourself and tell us what happened here.” She orders him and he takes a step out from his crowd. He looks over at Ishimura - half-expecting his commander to introduce him - but after a brief moment of silence, he sighs.

“Ser Brine of the 2nd company under Knight-Commander Ser Ishimura, my Lady.” He formally introduce himself with a stoic salute. Hua nods at him, giving him permission to continue. He looks at his Knight-Commander and Ishimura nods as well. “Me and Ser Aduecen and his squire asked these town’s people if we could get some wine and when they refused us, Ser Aduecen’s squire insisted and a fight broke out that ended abruptly.” He explains, but before Ishimura or Hua Sing can comment, one of the town’s folks intervenes.

“Liar! You never asked for anything! You threatened us and tried to steal our wine barrels! These brave men upon the ground tried to stand up to you, and you brutally beat them bloody!” A rather fat lady screams at the top of her lungs, her voice breaking into a shriek at the end.

“Hm.” Knight-Commander Hua thinks for a moment, looking over at the wounded knight, “Where did you receive that gash, Ser Brine?” She inquires and the Knight explains that one of the men who attacked him carried a dagger and points at a man in his early 40’s, lying unconscious on the ground, grasping at a dagger nearby. The fat lady has nothing to say against that and the tension in the air grows thicker while Hua Sing remains quiet.

“If both sides are to be believed, A squire of one of Ser Ishimura’s knights tried to steal wine while a man under my protection wounded a knight. Someone needs to be punished for this dispute…” She trails off, deep in thought.

>Let her make the decision alone. Only observe her judgment.
>Suggest punishing the squire.
>Advise her to teach the unconscious man with the dagger a lesson.
>Write-in.

>>416872
>>Suggest punishing the squire.
WE are to be held to a higher standard. If he as a squire abuses his power, what will he do as a knight when he has more power and more freedom?

Having damaged the underside, you won't be able to move it the distance from the outer ring to the island in the center. At least though, you can drag it over the edge so that it will remain within the lagoon, so to speak. As long as no tidal waves come along of course.

Checking the lifeboat and your own personal belongings you find;

- A lifevest
- A first aid kit
- A survival guide booklet
- A set of keys and a multitool
- A cell phone with no reception
- Your clothes
- The essentials of the boat itself, wood, oars, a lifesaver

>What do?

Trying to pry into this business doesn't sound like a wise choice for you. Whatever Sharron has running sounds rather sketchy, even if it doesn't really fit her...digging around will just cause you more trouble then it's worth. If you get some alone time with Lawrence later, then maybe you can just try to casually bring it up.


"Think that's your friend?" Ashley asks, starting to walk over to where the exit door is.

"Probably, he said he wouldn't take too long to get here..." How much time has passed? You have no idea where this hospital or clinic or whatever is, or how long it would take him to make his visit. If it is Sam, then it would be polite of you to greet him when he comes in at the very least. And on the off chance that it's not him...at least you'll know in that case too. "Can I come with you to see?"


"Yeah, of course." You follow Ashley, just a step or two behind. It always seems like you do that with people. Why? So you can run away faster? That's selfish of you, isn't it? Isn't that the same thing as throwing another person to the wolves chasing you? Then again...they wouldn't be after the person you're with. They're after you, not anyone else like Ashley. Giving you a head start is a smart idea in that case, right? Especially if it's someone who has a family who will miss her...

"Hey, do me a favor," Ashley asks, and you nod. "Don't go spreading around what happened, alright? Not to any of the other students walking around here or anything. I don't want to lose this job."


"I understand." And you would rather not get kicked out of one of the few safe spaces you have. Then again, if Sharron ends up having something sketchy going on here...that could mean more trouble then you're prepared to take on.


You make sure to stand a few feet back when Ashley answers the door, nearly holding your breath as she does. Being this on edge is annoying, but it might also be the thing that saves you life in the end.

"Good afternoon."


That's not Sam's voice. Ashley is taken aback too, an older officer standing at the door. You don't run off, but instead try to look around him, seeing if Sam is anywhere near by. No Sam, no other officers...


"Erm, hello!" Ashley greets, a bounce in her voice. Of course she doesn't have a reason to distrust cops. You can't help but turn away, and are reminded of the blonde wig you sport. "Can I help you officer?"


"Sorry if this is an inconvenience. Took me forever to find this door, guess no one can hear knocking from the front one?"


"Not if we're walking around unfortunately." Ashley is, of course, handling the conversation while you just opt to listening in. It's true that you guys had been walking around earlier, but you also were standing in the lobby for a good amount of time too. How lost was the officer? You're fairly certain you guys would have been able to hear him if he had been knocking then.

[1/2]

>416747
"It's not a problem, I just have a question or two for you, if you don't mind." He speaks politely, but you still stand on edge.

"Um...sure? Should I go get Ms. Faraway?"

"You'll be fine, they aren't anything too serious."


As you listen, you try to think about what he could be asking. Maybe someone is just parked in the wrong spot, or maybe they left their lights on...normal stuff. He'll ask his question and then be on his way, and nothing will be wrong.


"Alright, sure. Ask away." Ashley seems confident now.


"We noticed there's a motorcycle parked out back..." Your blood runs cold. "Do you know who it belongs to?"


"Motorcycle?" Ashley crinkles her nose, trying to think it over. "Um...I don't know who would drive it. Sorry..."


"That's fine, just one more question." Okay...okay, maybe one of the guys from the other room drives one too. Not that you saw another when you guys came up, or saw anyone else come in....maybe it's just parked wrong, and he'll ask you guys to move it.


"Do you know if a man named Lawrence Talbot is on the premise?" The officer asks, and you feel like throwing up.


"Lawrence...?" Ashley at first doesn't recognize the name, but when she looks over at you, her eyes widen in realization.


You could try to shake your head, let Ashley know to not say anything. Or maybe it's better if you take the situation over, explain that Lawrence left a little earlier and won't be back for a few hours...or days....

What if it's something simple though? Maybe you should just tell the officer that he's here, or try to ask him if Lawrence is in trouble...

What do you do?

>>416750
Shake head to signal Aschley to keep Lawrence out of this...
and ask the officer what this is about? Has something happened? Is there a motorcycle gang around? Lawrence Who? Never heard of him.

Can we warn Lawrence somehow, hang the police-is-here handkerchief out the window?
