The last thing I saw was a blinding flash and this weird sensation of warmth washing all over my body. I closed my eyes and then it all went silent...

When I woke up, I knew I wasn't the same... I just knew. I don't even remember how I looked before, I just felt odd. There was no one around me. Everything was silent. There weren't even fires in the distance, but the city around me was just a ruin.

Here I am now... unsure of what happened, who am I or what should I do... If I want to survive I better think of something... I think. Or search for survivors... or I don't really know. It's all a tangled mess...

>>283130
Well first things first. Presumably you still need sustence of some kind. So finding water and something edible should be first order of business. Finding survivors and shelter can come after that.

Shit looks pretty wrecked though. So you might have to search a bit and possibly walk towards the edges of the ruin where stuff should be a bit less wrecked.

>>283130
Do you have any possessions of any sort?

I'm going to down a shot every time I see a floppy dong in this quest.

>>283130
...What the HELL are you wearing.

>>283138
Also this.

HOLY SHIT YOU'RE AN UNHOLY ABOMINATION CREATED OF MY WORST NIGHTMARES!

The scenery stretching out before me is just a sea of ruins. I think there's more intact buildings somewhere around here, but I can't really tell with the skyline full of destroyed skyscrapers.

Food and water? Got it. I think there might be some kind of a store somewhere or something similar where I can stock that up.

>>283136

I don't think so, I mean... I feel naked. Was I wearing anything? Damn I just can't remember. And if I did, where did that go?

>>283143

I'm not wearing anything. This... is my skin? I don't really know. It feels kind of odd, kind of alien.

>>283153

Is that so? I'll need to find a mirror then to see if that's true. Shame on you if you're lying though. You should treat women with more respect.


Uhhh. I'm really lost. Should I head into the skyscraper direction? I think there's a bridge or somesuch in the opposite direction. I can't really say much, given there aren't really that much landmarks of any sort.

Sure, head for the skyscrapers I guess.

>>283169
Depends a bit on the layout of the city. But skyscrapper direction is probably towards the centre of the city. Depending on how the strike went that might be the worst hit area. Or the most looted area. Probably better to start with the edges, so head away from the skyscrappers.

>>283138
YOU ARE GOING TO DIE.

>>283169
First off, you seem to be either wearing a very strange and/or magical helm, or you are undead, or possibly an alien. Check your head, as well as your general sense of touch: what parts of your body have no feeling?

No doubt you have survived the meteors by sake of being what you are, or perhaps what you are wearing. Pay it no mind, and consider your 'skin' to be what was left of your original clothing, most likely some form of multi-morphic polymer skin-suit with an advanced metallic nanoweave to insure optimal safety of the wearer and integrity of the suit.
In short, you are wearing the equivalent to an HEV suit, or if w'ere lucky a Black Carapace.
Head onwards to the skyscrapers, and stay hidden. Assuming worst case non-apocalyptic scenario, those meteors weren't alone.
Assuming the Apocalypse has occured, start praying and watch the sky for signs of a blowout.
Godspeed, you nameless abomination.

>>283189
I highly doubt this.

take off that silly outfit, it don't even conceal anything anyway

>>283169
Head for the towers. Heights are your friend.

I can feel everything, even though it doesn't look natural to me, it is my skin for some odd reason. I'm not really in the mood for experiments beyond few pinches, let alone cutting myself.

>>283293
>>283170

Heading towards the skyscrapers made me wonder in seemingly undamaged blocks. There are few vehicles here that got turned over - Useless I think. While at this corner there's a store with half-broken window. The dust concealed most of it, so it would be difficult for me to see through it without wiping it.

But I think the most interesting thing is around the corner...

What was once a park, I think, doesn't look as one no more. The vegetation is mostly gone, the grass is sickly green. There seems to be an impact crater there in the distance and is that something shimmering there?

Well I can either investigate the shop, the impact site, look around the park some more or proceed towards the skyscrapers a little bit more. For some reason, I feel something odd in the air. Can't really place it, but it's not something worrying at least.

>>283362
pinch a nipple to see if you're just having a bad dream, if not, check impact site

>>283362
Shop first then impact site. You need know that you have a source of sustenence. Water and food are what should be the main priority right now. Things like worrying about what you are or what happened can come after those two have been secured.

>>283362
Shop.

Impact site.

Go over to the impact-site. There's not a lot you can do there anyway, supposedly, but it's worth checking out before you head over to the shop - which you should do just afterwards.

OW! That stung! I'm pretty sure I'm not wearing a suit nor am I dreaming.


I got to the impact site... or rather impact sites, as the meteors seem to have fragmented and worked like a cluster bomb, blowing the buildings to bits. Unfortunately there's not much to be found around here, everything is devastated.

Except this... this is the source of that shimmering. Looks like some kind of a crystal shard. The air around here feels a bit charged, there's a small hint of ozone in the air. I have that weird feeling again as I get near it.

>>283402
I'm sure nothing bad can ever happen by you touching that stone and digging it up.

But just in case there might be some monumental event that happens if you do, go get water and food first. It will probably stay right there until you're back.

Go to the shop and do shopping things

>>283402
Grab it. Pull it out and wave it around, as if you were Arthur freeing Excalibur from the rock.

GRAB ROCK AND BRING ROCK TO FREEDOM.

>>283423
And then lick it.

>>283402

Nothing will happen if you grab it unless it is hot, which is a possibility. If the shard does not feel radiant, go ahead and pick it up. As I said before, though, it probably will not do you any good.

Prioritize food, water, and shelter over shards. Call out to see if there are any other survivors of this catastrophe.

Told you about weird events and crystals lady.

Ok, lets pick some upgrades before looting that store. Immediate problems are still day to day survival. Entropy and Nonorganic materials should be good for that. Making tools is alot easier if you can shape materials with your will and being able to influence the surounding nature of things is quite useful for a variety of purposes as well.

spend both points in "Organic materials" power

so you can get rid of you creepy latex skin, and fix your hidious skull head

Spend 1 point in Mental Influence so you can clothe yourself in illusion or otherwise make people believe that you look other than how you actually do

Spend 1 point in Entropy for general offensive capabilities.

Non-organic manipulation and Entrophy. Both are useful for building things and survival.

Entropy and non-organic.

I say go with the non-organic skill and put one point into the Wit stat.

1 in Organic materials and 1 in Non-organic materials because I feel boring today

One point into Wit stat, one into a power of some kind. Can't completely neglect your stats in favor of shiny powers.

Ugh. What was that? For a minute there I felt like burning, then a surge of great power. Now I feel okay again but a bit odd. I think that crystal changed me a bit, or something similar. Maybe it gave me some sort of superpowers?

I probably should get out of this hole...

She's a real chatterbox, I have to say. My name? Uhhh... what IS my name?

Make yourself some clothes and stop showing off your shiny ass, you tart.

Your name is Squiglosh, by the way.

You're Frey.

Yeah I can get behind that name. Short and simple, good name.

Ask her if she has seen anything interesting from above. Do that while walking to the shop, time to loot that place and find out if there's anything good in there and if you can still eat and drink.

Frey, definitely.

>>283994
Yes.

>>283983

Make it known to this strange insect-woman that her demeanor is inappropriate for the circumstances and undermines the severity of the danger that you are both in. Don't let her forget it, either.

"Hey when you were up there, did you see anything interesting?"

"What do you mean by that?"

"Any noticeable buildings still standing?"

"Oh ohh... I... don't know. I just flew in from the skyscraper I was in and... WAIT! I think the hospital is still standing!"

Well that's good. While she chatters, I slowly move towards the shop and look inside. The glass, even cracked, looks still durable enough to prevent me from entering.

"Hey, what are you going to do?"

"We need supplies from here..."

"Ohhhh... wait isn't this stealing? That's not nice."

"Look, if there's the owner inside, I'm gonna ask him if we can take it. Right now we need to get some food and look for more survivors."

"I suppose you're right."

Looking inside, I see bags and cans littering the floor. Shopping baskets, some of them bent, lie like someone just dropped them from their hand.

I think I see movement there in the darkness...

now use your Organic Materials Power, to make your skin less shiny and less black, and then use the same power to create more skin to create a covering around your head

this is important do this immediately

then use your Non-organic Materials Power, to make a robe or some sort of clothing for you to wear

this is also important

Start using those powers of yours! Shape the glass until you can get through it, then grab some metal and mold it into a simple billy club with a spike at one end.

>>284426
Try using your new powers to quietly make a hole in the glass.

Your new buggy friend isn't freaking out about how you look, so I'd guess they don't really care, or it's actually normal, so I'd leave off from working yourself over with your powers until you're more used to them.

Call out to whoever or whatever is in the darkness before you make a hole in the glass. Did you know you now have the power to manipulate both organic and non-organic materials? You should try to use those to your advantage now, or just figure out how they work.

Darkness. Your body will blend in, making you difficult to hit cleanly. Don't give away your position just yet... look for an inobtrusive entrance, and stay sharp.

>>284426
Time to try out the nonorganic materials thing a bit. Try to see if you can make a knife out of rock, or glass if the rock doesn't work out, or metal if you have any of that nearby. Have to have something for protection.

And don't call out. Can't make assumptions that people are friendly. Or that they're not friendly really, but it's safer to get into a better position of power before making yourself known.

I grab one of the car bumpers and concentrate. When I raise my hand I find a finely crafted cutlass in it. Pretty good for a first try!

The glass melts like butter under my touch... hey I'm really getting the hang of it!

"WHAT! How did you do that!"

"You mean you don't know how to do this?"

"Nu-huh. Man, that's so cool, can you teach me that?!"

Ugh... the vision got a little bit blurry all of a sudden. But traversing towards the movement I see a big red shape with a shopping cart slowly moving, leaving a trail of some kind of ooze? I can here an odd sound... like, excuse my lack of prudence, fapping or something.

There are more shopping baskets laying on the ground here, but the stuff on the shelves is mostly untouched.

>>284712
Try to stay quiet and out of sight and grab some food and water. And a basket to keep it in, you can reshape it later for other purposes.

Try to get something with a high sugar content or pure sugar also if you can.

>>284712
He's gooey, your cutlass isn't gonna go much. Turn it into a nice big mace. While you're at it make yourself some coveralls. I don't think you want any splatter getting on ya... Tough skin or not, digestive acids are nasty.

That guy is probably what's blurring your vision. Back away.

>>284715
She can't really do anything that precise.

She could however make a shield. Very simple, and if she's going for acid-proof she just needs to use some of that glass.

Keep your distance for now. Stay alert, do what you need to do as quietly as you can. When you have your supplies safely retrieved, you can approach cautiously; by the looks of this thing, you can definitely move faster than it if it tries to attack.

Clearly we need to upgrade her MODESTY attribute so she listens to our pleas to cover herself up.

Wait, you and Ves are both weird monster things, maybe that's also a person who is a weird monster thing. Don't go attacking it just because it looks freaky, because you look dangerous yourself.

I concentrate and my sword becomes a spiked club. Damn! I'm getting better a this! The shield is a snap as well. But when I move towards the goods, the creature seems to be gone, leaving a slime trail.

"Wow! You really need to teach me to do that!"

"Maybe later. First I need to get us some food."

Well since he's gone, I'm starting to pack the goods into the baskets. still looking at the isle that he went into.

And I do have modesty dammit. I'll TRY to find me some materials to make clothes out of it, but it was YOUR advice to get food first, dammit. Despite what you think, going around with my crotch all exposed isn't my favorite passtime.

Wait a second... there's that annoying sweet smell that made my head spin the first time I felt it. I wonder what it is...

it's right behind you on the top of the shelf!

>>285388
The smell of the slime monster. It has spotted you, time to try some emergency diplomacy.

Turn around and back away from it a bit. Say that you only want some supplies for yourself and a friend, and there is enough in here that will go bad before he can eat it all to share. You're fine with letting him have the location, and in exchange for getting some food you're willing to make some tools for him.

Chances are it's largely the same as you. Woke up in some weird place looking like a weird thing. That doesn't mean it might not be dangerous or hostile though. So keep your shield ready and your weapon near at hand.

find a bag or anything to cover up your hidious face

It's Kyukyu-kun, so it's best just to walk away from it, if it does strike however, just beat the ever loving crap out of it.

I'm trying to keep my cool, but whatever this is... it looks really horrifying. Especially that unearthly sad face.

It stretches towards me and I can sense the sweet scent assaulting my nostrils, making me almost collapse. I keep my weapon and shield within reach in case something happens.

"You take Me stuff. Me not like."

"Hello... I didn't mean to intrude. Me and my friend are hungry and wanted something to eat. We don't mean harm."

"Not nice to take Me stuff. Me hates taking stuff from Me!"

"If you want, I could make you something in exchange, we could trade!"

"Trade?"

"Yes, I'll give you my things for your things."

"Me has to think."

He doesn't seem to be hostile just... horribly retarded and simple minded. What else should I do with him other than trade stuff?

>it looks really horrifying.
look in the mirror you hypocritical bitch

>horribly retarded
what heartless thing to say!

>What else should I do with him other than trade stuff?
have him join your party, then promote him to leader

>>285909
What are you doing we're going to get killed

>>285907
Nothing really. If he accepts a trade then you get food for a very small cost and that's quite nice. He can keep the place as long as he's willing to trade with you.

You could probably show him what you can do also. Make something for him and tell him it's a gift.

Do you really have anything to TRADE, though? I suppose you might be able to turn some stuff into some other stuff... make a little playground/jungle-gym for him out of various metal pieces... he might enjoy oozing around various tubes and slides
