The heavy air of Oendal fills my lungs from the second I wake, Alison having already slipped out to call a doctor to the room. The inn smells like stale beer and old smoke, and it still is more friendly than being on the streets, the snow outside starting to pile up to shin height.

The doctor avoids mentioning the brand Mr Johnson received on his leg, with little more than a raised eyebrow, “Broken rib...s” The doctor notes, feeling around my masters chest, “Two of them, and some internal bleeding that’s…. closed up.” He nods, “Breathing is laboured, best be careful he doesn’t get fluid in his lungs.” He reaches for a bag, forcing some liquid into the old man’s mouth. “Should help.” He nods, setting the bottle down. “Once a day.” He turns to face the three of you, “He needs to rest up, at least a fortnight. Can’t take him anywhere, not in this weather, he’d be dead before the day’s done.”

Shit.

We pay him a little extra, a silent agreement that he won’t mention the brand between us, before sending him on his way.

If we’re going to be here at least two weeks while the spook heals up, we’re going to NEED more money.

We build up the heat in his room, thinking quietly, as our new… co-dweller fusses over the spook. Sarah, she said she’s the daughter of a ‘healing woman’ more than likely her mother was a witch, who never got pulled over to use dark magic, and it seems the daughter is the same.

Still, doubt Mr Johnson- still don’t even know his full name for that matter- would like an alleged witch looking after him.

She sits back soon enough, still in pain from her fate at the hands of the church, while I try to think of a way to earn some coin, at least enough for a few days.

is it a dick move to not get involved in the plot hook if your character legitimately wouldn't? Like, your character legitimately either gives no fucks or would not want to get involved in-character?

The steady beep of a heart rate monitor is the first thing that enters your consciousness. It’s followed by the slow realization that something’s not quite right. When you open your eyes, you see the interior of a hospital room. Several leads trail from you to various monitors, and an IV steady drips an unknown liquid into your veins via a port on your cybernetic arm. There’s no one else in the room. How you got here is a mystery.

You work through your confusion and try to remember the last thing you were doing. Your memory is hazy at first, but it creeps back to you. You were having lunch with Aria, the CEO of Fokir and possible romantic interest. Before that… Ah, that’s right. You had spent the night before combing through the datapad Qwin, the legendary Puppetmaster, had given you. There was quite a bit of highly classified and sensitive data on it pertaining to the SCU, Fokir, and Raziel. All parties involved had something to hide, some more gruesome than others. All of it combined made “choosing a side” that much more difficult. In fact, that’s why you had met with Aria in the first place, to hear more about her side of things.

So why are you here in a hospital?

You are a giant

A Giant that's really good at tinkering and building shit from scratch

You and your people have a massive Scrap yard where you've made a deal with the humans to take their junk.

The junk ranges from various construction tools, vehicles, car parts, etc

You catch word of Goblins having joined forces with some Ogres and some enslaved Trolls and they are marching on your village as part of their war path into the human cities.

What do you build to outfit you and your village for the upcoming assault as you have to wait for the humans to mount up and ge there to back you up.

For particulars, you and your people are roughly 15 feet tall and fairly muscular and powerful sorts similar in shape to regular humans and are pretty resiliant even without armor.

The Trolls are equvilent size and the Ogres only slightly smaller at around 8 to 10 feet and the largest. The Trolls are animalistic and have to be lead into battle where they are let loose to slaughter and eat until they are called back by their handlers.

Welcome back to RotA!

Remember to follow on twitter for game updates: https://twitter.com/AssimilatorDave

We left off in mid afternoon on the 2nd day on Earth. The option chosen was "Follow the policeman"

Thread music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZ3evBfjnKw


You nod silently, and hop down from the seat. The policeman smiles and introduces himself as Junior Sergeant Polkovnik Aryemyev. He is taller than the other man, and more muscular, wearing dark grey slacks, a thick jacket of a matching color that extends to the thighs, buttoned up the front, with a broad felt collar. A black belt with a gold buckle is worn over the jacket at the waist, holding a holster for a pistol, another holster for a stun gun, a pouch for handcuffs, and other pouches presumably for mace and magazines. Atop his head sits a black ushanka with the flaps let down to cover his ears.

As you go to follow him, the other man waves goodbye at you cheerily, and leaves. The policeman leads you into the building. "It will be quicker to cut through here. Plus, you must be cold, wearing only a shirt and slacks. Where is your jacket? Your shoes? Is your father a beggar?"

'I lost them' you state plainly.

"How? Why did you even take them off? You could have died."

You pause and think for a moment. You don't want him to suspect you before he takes you to the city center. 'I tripped and fell on some ice into a shallow puddle. My jacket and shoes got wet, I did not want to wear wet clothes in the cold.'

You know, All the times I said I wanted a little sister when I was younger, I wasn't really being serious. I sigh as Blue looks hangs on my back, or rather head, not letting go as she kicks her legs back and forth, giggling happily as I lift her up into the air so she can see the tops of the trees blowing in the wind, and not just the muddy ground. And I mean I didn't really expect to have one that used to be a flesh hungry monster, but well, she's pretty alright I guess.

I smile happily as Poi whimpers and grabs onto my arm, trying to make me do the same with her, no doubt jealous of blue. Green just sort of watches me, making gasps of awe every now and again and nodding its head in rhythm of blue kicking her feet.

Lucy giggles happily

"You know, always thought you were a great big sister Krovy" She says teasingly as I set Blue down, who scuttles over to Berry to see what she's doing with her Rapier, being followed by poi

"Yeah, next thing you'll know she'll be giving her dating advice" Minor giggles happily

"....that's a horrible mental image" Smiley says meakly "I mean not I...forget it, just thinking out loud"

"Ah yes, Light's edge" thunder says suddenly, looking up from his corner of the cart "I remember it, my old queen led a raid against it once, I wonder if it's still as horrible as I remember it to be"

"You know I almost forgot you used to be a normal hiver" Berry sighs shaking her head "But I'm sure it isn't as bad as you remember"

"Nope, it's a real fucking shit hole" Sam says angrily "for once I agree with the old fart, don't like the place"

"And here I thought humans respected their elders" Thunder says, wheezing as he slowly stands up, wincing as he holds onto his knees

I will be running a late due to doc appointment. Come up with actions for your forces and MC's.

Last time it was up in the air whether or not to use a fatepoint to counter a critical failure.

Besides that your (still unnamed corp which obviously needs one) made a ton of money, your forces invaded a dead world protected by guardians, and finally your MC's got ready for school after finally reversing the sex swap that had previously occured.

You bring the news of the gods blessings and support for the temple to the tribe and movement finally starts to be made. The most eager for the blessings of the gods include Mesut and his family, who promptly head upstream and float back strong, tall tree trunks down the river. Apparently, Enki and Isu are as good as their words, as Mesut claims they found a deadfall where the materials were simply waiting to be carried to the riverbank.

Soon the tranquil silence of the grove is broken, as in small groups, the tribe follows your directions. The first step is the beginning of digging a ditch around the grove, carrying earth from further afield too, to pile into a mound, to elevate the eventual temple above the surrounding forest. It's hard, dirty work, but with Maar and Ursa's strength empowering everyone who treads the land within the grove's boundaries, work proceeds apace.

>The Grand Temple of the Wild still requires 362 labour points to complete

Work has to be cut somewhat short after a few days however, at least for some of the tribe, as the yearly festival of the Sacred Heavens rolls around. After the usual prayers and offerings, the hymn you created certainly seems well-received, as once again, the crowd feels a light blessing settle over them, granting a little relief from the cold air and aches that are just a part of living with winter.
