this quest is (obviously) nsfw. it contains clothing damage, sex, and ogres.

the mysterious Sexy Dungeon has stood undefeated for eons, tempting adventurers with bottomless stores of earthly wealth and the seductive allure of carnal pleasures, but never has a lucky soul managed to reach the bottom level of the labyrinth. all challengers to the earthen tunnels of lust have been struck low and surrendered themselves to the advances of the dungeon sentries.

one such group of intrepid explorers enters the dungeon now, in search of treasure, glory in battle, or perhaps something more... intimate in nature...

It might not be a good idea to keep playing. If you lose track of time, then it'll be night. That's when all of the doors lock and Benny comes out to hunt. You don't want to be stuck in here all night!

Sure is. Maybe everything actually has a mind of its own, but can't express it without whatever this black goop is.

>Play?
You shouldn't keep playing. Time gets nebulous when you play games and Benny comes out at night. If you were to do nothing else here, then maybe, but if you're to take Kab's deal, just take the novelty for what it was - fun, but temporary. If you leave the place standing, maybe you can come back for another go, later.

Accept Kab's deal, check on the backrooms.

There are a few things every human being on an advanced world knows about spaceflight.

The first is some basic history. Some time long before the foundation of the modern Historiam Calendar, ancient humanity sent an enormous amount of self-replicating machines hurtling through space. These probes, known as Terraformation Engines, were designed for one enormously complex task: to identify planetoids in habitable zones and seed them with life. Full-scale atmospheric creation, the artificial spread of both flora and fauna; the shaping of countless Earths and Earthlikes. This effort has created an ever-expanding sphere of habitable space, centered from the Core Worlds, humanity’s birthplace. The furthest edges of this sphere are known as the Rim. Humanity has spread outward from the Core, following in the wake of the Engines, colonizing, living, dying.

The second is some basic physics. It is impossible to move faster than the speed of light, excepting the will of the Archotechs- and they’re certainly not telling humans how to do it. This means that to cross the vast distances between stars is a task of centuries. The geologic timescale of spaceflight ensures the vast majority of planets are isolated. When humanity does travel, they do so in a state of artificially induced Cryptobiosis, only awoken at rare, regular intervals to prevent illness and assure mental well-being. The endless work of flight itself is performed by a Persona-Level AI, operating at a human capacity without fatigue as it guides the craft.

The third is a simple fact. We are alone. While life generated outside of humanity has been reported, no records within the Historiam exist of contact with intelligent life not originating from Humanity itself- with the possible exception of the Archotechs, but this is, reasonably, impossible to confirm.

You jump down with a heavy thud, and work quickly. There’s only one easy exit- but there’s a pile of boxes near it, and they can be shoved aside to make a makeshift barricade- then climbed up to perch safely above. It’s only a matter of waiting for the man to fully regenerate, and then you can try to propose some kind of working relationship. It’s better than executing someone in their sleep, at least.

About five minutes later, the quiet pops of joints and knitting flesh go quiet. The man has almost completely scabbed over with dense, pale chitin- it’s covered his face entirely. He wakes with a muffled grunt- and while he sounds irritated, he doesn’t seem particularly alarmed. He reaches aside for a sharp knife, made of a short piece of sharpened rebar- and thrusts it into his face, shattering the keratin shell. He pulls at it with his hands, prying apart enough to leave his eyes and mouth exposed, before searching around for his clothes.
You allow it, considering you don’t particularly feel like staring at armored man-ass, before clearing your throat and steadying your weapon.

As he looks up, his response is rather muted.
>”Oh. Surprising. Thought you would be dispatched by now.”

“Not everyone is as kill-crazy as you are. I’ve met up with the First Mate- we have plans to save this ship. Save everyone! We can put the engines back together- maybe even revive the Chief Engineer to help!”

He remains placid. His eyes scan the room, clearly trying to assess retaliation, but there aren’t many avenues for someone on the wrong end of a high-ground situation.

He gestures towards the fire- and you nod. He steps over into the light, seating himself, crosslegged. He idly examines his own body as you discuss, identifying just what’s changed in order to better heal him.

“You’re the only person on board with real combat experience, and I understand the engineering wing is packed full of hungry bugs. You working with everyone is our best shot to get in there and fix the engines.”

His expression is somewhere between annoyance and pity. He actually manages some incensed inflection to his voice.
>”Fix the engines. Fix the engines. You keep using that phrase and I become more and more convinced you do not know what you are talking about. There is nothing to fix. There was no- I don’t know what story the AI has fed you, but this is not a minor malfunction. If it were, we would not be in this situation. I would not be forced to cull those who will not survive on the planet’s surface in cruel mercy, in the hopes that the strongest of us will live. The primary engine is gone.
>”It is wreckage. A gaping hole. I believe we may have been hit with some sort of warhead.”

He pauses, staring up at you, past the barrel of the gun. If he has any fear you’ll pull the trigger, it doesn’t show in the slightest.
>”But you are clearly tougher than I assumed- and I apologize for my assumption. I am a killer, but I do not revel in the fact. It is a raw necessity of our situation. Time pressure. Lack of options. But- consider this. I’m engaged in what I am because the AI is... malfunctioning. Driven by logic that cannot be satisfied. Everyone cannot be saved.”
He states it as a simple, assured fact.

What's the point of launching the escape pods early? If we can get a fuel source, the secondary engines will be good enough to keep the orbit stable, and we can repair the ship enough to attempt a landing with them if we stockpile enough fuel as well. We don't NEED the primary engine.

I don't trust him. He's already convinced of his course of action (leave ship no matter how many he has to kill), and he doesn't really need you - just your firearm. If he's lying and we ever get within arm's reach of him, we're toast.

If we're reluctant to kill him, we could just send him to go collect the Chief Medical Officer and Engineer and bring them to us - we need their help anyway, right? Tell him about the Engineer's current status, then send him to bring back the Engineer and a spare person (alive, of course). Hopefully that solves one of our problems, and even if he plans to betray you, he'll need to keep you alive until he gets back with the Engineer's stack.

Ask him to humor us in trying to fix things. Put all the killing on hold and collect the important people first. Maybe we can prepare some kind of killswitch for the AI (does our new captain have an override for the escape pods?) so that if we're down to, say, 30 minutes and it doesn't look like we can fix up any kind of thrusters, he can kill the AI and launch with whoever's left. He's going to need to collect those people anyway, why not focus on that next instead of randomly killing whoever he can find?

Or does he have a better idea? What's his new plan?

The regular Engineer is fine. The Chief Engineer is the one with the stack we need to retrieve, and right now we don't know if it's possible to get it. The bubble belt doesn't have enough time left on it.

Madelrada sa Kimbery, That Which Wears Down The Mountains, is bored.

It's been years since she's seen any action remotely worthy of her title as one of the Eight Masterful Demon Generals. Even if she had a legitimate reason to go out and conquer something, the Contagion isn't really over yet. Unnecessary risk has never been her nature. So, she's going to stay home, but she's not going to stay idle. Time for some training exercises. How about an amphibious assault scenario? Lots of ways to keep that interesting by mixing in different unit types.

This is an Exalted second edition game, basically a tournament-arc excuse plot for open playtesting on my attempt to finish what the Scroll of Errata started. Several old sticking points in the combat rules have already been reworked, and more changes are planned, but first the basic threat-assessment scale needs recalibration, especially with regard to grappling.

Baidak are living humanoids with the mentality of automata, created by one of Madelrada's own component souls to fight like chess pieces. They're fearless and reasonably intelligent, but almost completely incapable of creativity or individual initiative beyond the scope of their explicit orders. In this context, they'll follow appropriate suggestions from anybody.

Mermaid-like demjen and their animated-ore minions will also listen to advice from the audience, but have more personality. Roleplaying a specific individual in more detail, or shouting advice at the group as a whole, are both acceptable approaches.

If you've got somebody else all ready to jump in, post a description and character sheet for final approval. I'd rather keep this thread focused on the visible scenery and events, but iterative character creation feedback can happen in the discussion thread ( https://questden.org/kusaba/questdis/res/120347.html ), or the houserule doc has a link to a Discord server for deeper analysis of the mechanics.

Demjen send a squad of Chalcothete under whatever the demon-realm equivalent of a white flag is in order to negotiate a truce and terms of surrender, as per the Unquestionable's orders. Clearly the most certain way to ensure her will is carried out and a single force wins without deliberate or accidental killing is for Scathra to willingly concede. Rolling for Red Team to gather/present appropriate bribes to the puppy-minded island. Not sure what the tummy-rubs and peanut butter equivalents are here, but I assume such knowledge could be found IC.

"Deliberate killing" in the sense of excessive force against soft targets, or continuing to attack someone already incapacitated or otherwise neutralized. "No accidental killing" was emphatically not part of the decree.

If red team all surrenders, they'll be removed from the field and teal team wins by default no more than three days later. The baidak aren't very interested in negotiating for anything else, and you'd probably have to get past them - either sailing or marching through lightning range out in the open, or searching for a sneaky route underground or above the cliff - to even attempt delivery of a bribe to the actual behemoth-manse.

>peanut butter equivalents
>rolled 6, 8, 9, 10, 5
Meat. Enough to be worth losing the exercise would probably be more than could fit in the cargo hold all at once, and this is a sparsely populated area on the outermost layer, so you don't know offhand where the nearest market which has that much for sale even is. If it's more than five or six hundred miles, Whirligig can't safely get there and back inside three days.

It came out of the oceans, like steam rising from a boiling pot. Then it swept over the shores, over the mountains, and down into the valleys. What was at one time a freak phenomenon quickly turned into a disaster as people, landmarks, and eventually small towns disappeared into the fog. So much was lost, even time became less and less reliable. No one's sure how long ago it was, that's been lost to the fog, but the survivors do their best to get by in the new fog world.

Among the survivors are an odd breed of rare human that have come into existence; Distinguished by an odd sort of affinity for the fog. Simply known as the Taken, these beings mingle amongst regular humans, some not even knowing they are Taken. Some people of the fog world believe these taken to be the next evolution of human, a new creature made to survive in a new world; Other's believe them to be servants of the fog, demons hell bent on destroying what's left. The Taken themselves suffer from odd dreams, strange visions, and are haunted by voices. it's hard to say what's true, the truth's been obscured by fog, either way the Taken too must struggle to survive…

Dell writes his name next to mine on the metro door. He looks way too happy to have just written a name on a door, the fatigue finally hits me completely. I grab my Arrayan plush and settle into my sleeping bag. I doze off to the sound of Dell playing his guitar.

So let's assume this demon is telling the truth: You're not in a simulation. It can speak into your head, but isn't creating for the mental images your getting. You just react too strong and undisciplined to raw stimuli.

You're a psychic, untrained and sensitive. You're the one creating the images in your head, most likely inspired by your captivity and breeding urges. But this means you are capable.

You're already building a form into it. Next, try imagining this big holy stick or water gun you can wield when it feels too close. After that, see how much you are able to control its "movements".
Remember: you are not the only one who would get hurt if this thing gets out.

Foreboding clouds hang heavily overhead, and yet the air is still.

The ship has been becalmed for almost five days now, the black sky obscuring the stars and threatening a storm that has yet to come.

The crew is growing restless, which isn't good even on a disciplined military vessel, but this is not that. This is a pirate ship.

Who are you?

A. Cabin Boy. A lad that the captain took a fancy to, looking for adventure.

B. Cabin Boy (Female). You're pretending to be a lad to escape an oppressive home life. The captain took a fancy to you.

C. Captive (Male). Youngest son of a wealthy family, you were kidnapped by the crew. The captain intends to ransom you back to your father, a Naval officer.

D. Captive (Female). Oldest daughter of a wealthy family, you were kidnapped by the crew for ransom back to your father, a powerful merchant.

E. Stowaway (Male). You snuck aboard the ship to avoid the life of a homeless petty thief. You've probably kept your presence a secret.

F. Stowaway (Female). You snuck aboard the ship to avoid the life of a homeless beggar. You've probably kept your presence mostly secret.

G. Crewmate (Male). You signed on for a life of freedom aboard a pirate ship! Before that, you were a bank clerk.

H. Crewmate (Female). You signed on for a life of freedom aboard a pirate ship! Before that, you were a seamstress's apprentice.

"I took a little hardtack and some water," you say. Ward looks at you keenly, but you press on.

You decide you're woefully lacking in information.

"The prisoner is unchained but not conscious. Some kind of light was coming out of her. I think she was conjuring something, or doing some kind of magic. I don't know if she was tyring to help us, or summoned the thing that tore a hole in the top deck. What do you know about her?"

Ward snorts, the light glinting off his good eye as he leans forward, squinting, as if taking your measure.

"Can't tell you much about that prisoner. That's the Captain's thing. Valuable."

Well, that was singularly unhelpful.

You consider his singular focus on 'protecting the supplies.' He doesn't even know if there's anyone onboard to protect them from.

"How much time has passed since the storm? It seems like it's safe out if you want to help me look for survivors or pump water out of the hold."

He frowns. "Probably been about eight hours," he says, "But I'll leave the lookin' and pumpin' to you. Got to make sure we have stores. No telling how long we're gonna be stuck here." He snorts.

"Come back and tell me what you find." He nods meaningfully toward the door, so you go back into the storage area.

You've always liked it dark.

Everyone is born with an elemental affinity. In some it is weak, in others it is strong. One's affinity leads to their ease or difficulty with magic and some other pursuits - those with an affinity for, say, Steel, or maybe Fire, or Earth, might just as easily work a forge as they might a spellbook. There are some who theorize that everyone has multiple affinities that lead one to ever-more-specific paths in life, that perhaps someone might have an affinity for water, but also for dance, and perhaps even for swords, leading them to becoming a master fencer.

But you...

You have always, always preferred the dark. You like to keep your little room afforded to you in the Academy dorm dark. You have always like to wear the full robes of the apprentice that hide your face and shade it almost supernaturally.

Food and hygiene are the most important. After that, I'm guessing it's your robes so you'll be able to focus - although if you can throw on a robe anyway and the action is about making it presentable, forget that and get your equipment. (Books can always be shared, equipment I'm guessing not.)

Better question, since this is a recurring problem, why haven't you started preparing what you can ahead of time? This would be much easier if you had your robes and the books and equipment you need already gathered.

The skeleton demon hands you a map and points out where the trucks are likely to appear in around an hour. He says that there are also no shortage of tents and watchtowers where cultists are probably located and ready to fire on any intruders, so going in guns blazing is ill-advised. He says their ruined compound is in the far right corner of the map

I guess step one is to go to trucks area and lie in wait for trucks so you can ambush a truck and acquire truck. Unless you can just like, hop on as it drives past and then sneak in the back I guess?

None of these are important to our current objective and checking up on any of them would take longer than 15 minutes.

My mistake. I should learn to read better.

I will say that it was an ineffective way to scare/demoralize Fen, on the battlefield. I was thinking her creator isn't a proper necromancer. She might practice it, but she's better specced in mana constructs.

>>985201
You're most likely right, as much as it looks like a subtle "please stay away from my fiance". As much as I'd like for this quest to end in a guilt-free punch to his face, this isn't enough to pin a conspiracy on someone as high up as "benevolent tyrant" Stup, if it even IS him. But I am talking too far off-mission.

He walks around the desk to us.

Gotta be careful, now. Remember that neumono can't hide their feelings very well, and around here in particular they can be made to talk. Nothing to do for now but go along with Quokko, now you've come this far, but keep it in mind. Do your goggles come with a wire to link to his tablet, there? Ask him if you can borrow it for a moment, and see if you can turn off the wireless connection on it first, if it has one.

I wonder if you should start disguising your voice when you talk to people in places you shouldn't be. How well can you do that? Try sound like... I don't know, some suave confident secret agent lady. People probably wouldn't associate that kind of attitude either with your cold non-contacts persona or the way you usually act with your contacts in. Try remember to ask about seeing the files/recordings/tests/etc you made earlier, because later on if anyone finds out about this trip that's still going to be your excuse for having been sneaking around. Don't do anything (obvious) that will outright contradict that story. Maybe even use his tablet to check your location? Create some backup for that story later on. You were an obsessive scientist who decided to protect their work in an emergency and hacked a map out of the system somehow so you could go sneak around the security to go check on it, that's probably pretty believable around here. Not likely to get the best response but better than the real one, you need some sort of cover story as a plan B if you get found out.

“Hey, Are you part of the science hive? I’m told you guys might know where Arza is. I’d also like you to check over these goggles, I think they have some kind of weird glitch.”
Toss the goggles to him and wait patiently.

Since people are currently looking for Arza, it might be a good idea to tell someone he was last near here. His guilt isn’t proven so it’s likely they’d try to rescue him if he’s alive. Just gotta figure out how to tell someone without coming off as suspicious.

I mainly live with my family at a small town at home with my father, and grandmother. Though there are some weeks when I visit my mother in the city. My father has always been strict with raising me, but he's fair too. He just wants me to be the best me I can be, and I love him for that. Though it is admittedly fun to feel a sense of freedom when I rebel against him from time to time. He even supports my decisions and goals, like letting me take some self defense classes when I asked him to."

:ec_arthurius: :Oh! that must be Kyle's secretary, Savina. We were going to discuss possible plans of actions with her so she can help get us prepared.

Savina seems to be wearing the typical secretary outfit you would normally expect to see. White collared shirt, long skirt, all that jazz. Though, the one main thing that stands out to me is that her antennae are in the way of her eyes... is that why she doesn't realize she is holding the sign upside-down?

We exit the vehicle and upon closing the doors, the secretary speaks up.

:ec_savina: Midnight Cappers I presume?

Savina's tone of voice sounds like she is bored, yet also professional sounding.

I could see only tiny flecks of light, far far away. They were static.

...

I try not to think about it. My time might be limited. I don't want the fate of whoever was in that room.

>Check out the door on the right.

I pull myself over to the right side door and press my snout to the glass.

The new sight doesn't really help put me at ease. The door on the other side of this one is open too, but not just to plain blackness. A sort of bridge protrudes from it, seemingly clamped around the outer door. It twists off into the darkness, deformed and broken. Like it had been ripped away.

Left of the outer door is cabinet, similar to the other one, though this one is open. A sort of suit is hung within it, with pieces for every part of one's body, head, tail, arms. A long tube dangles free from the helmet piece.

Luce doesn’t seem inclined to talk about anything other than the research itself. Maybe a different topic needs introducing?


Just then, Adrian notices a folding table to the left of Luce’s desk. It seems to be a temporary workstation of sorts. On the table is a clipboard and what looks like some electrical engineering equipment. To the left of the table on the ground is a large spherical object mounted on stilts. It looks like one of the drones.

[Which object should Adrian investigate?]
