This is when you speak. The winds soar through the camp, extinguishing the flames. The tounge of the Gods are to much for simple mortals. MEwilk seems unaffected by it. The knight fights to stay standing from the pure force. Wracked with pain, the knight trys to answear.

"HAIL WARRIOR. DO YOU SEEK THE CHOSEN ONE?"

"YEEESS!"

The knight falls to one knee.

"WHY DO YOU SEEK OUR CHOSEN?"

"so THAT CAN P,PLEDGE MY ARMS TO HIM!"

"HE STANDS BEFORE YOU, YOU HAVE FOUND HIM."

In a instant, the winds die off and the calm settles in. The knight falls to the ground, face in the grass. Mewilk finds him alive but unresponsive.

Mewilk places the knight in a tent as he goes in search of his gear. He finds his shirt and pants but the rest was destroyed in the fires. He retrieves his hat from Kirrel and fills it edible goods. He plops down in the tent where he moved the knight, dumps the food out at his feet and takes a bite of a peach. Looking up to the heavens, he cracks a smile.

"Gods, I pray for a full nights rest where I don't wake up to a slap in the face or in bondage."


END OF CHAPTER

>>418711
[Ok, done]

>>418711

Sure, we can do that

Should we move some wild animals closer to the camp for easy hunting in the morning or just let them eat what ever they can scrounge up in the gnoll camp?

he wakes up three seconds before a bird shits on his face.

How about we grant him a boon: he only ever needs sleep for two hours a night, and he wakes fully rested and energized, as if from a deep and satisfying slumber.

>>418738
Lets avoid too much power creep. We don't want him thinking our powers are at his beck and call; we don't want him getting demanding or arrogant.

>>418738
That would make his life to easy, just because we can do something doesn't mean we should.

I agree that we don't want our boy being spoiled. I think the knight deserves a little something for joining team Chosen One though. How about his armour is as strong and hard and impenetrable as ever, but when he wears it, he finds it to be light as a feather?

>>418729
Seconding this. For shits and giggles.

>>418729
He's inside a tent.

>>418738
Maybe later. First he should drive his body beyond its limits, working harder than he can for longer than he can without sleeping. If we were to take away his ability to tire so soon, he would lose an opportunity to become greater.

He said, "Gods, I pray for a full nights rest where I don't wake up to a slap in the face or in bondage."

Well, I think that can be done.
Let's give him a full nights rest where he wakes up to a kick in the junk and in female dress, just to be contrary. Also with unexplained bird poop hitting him if he questions if the day could start any worse.

Looks like you've done well for yourself, Mewilk.

When you wake up in the morning, talk to the knight about a plan of action. Maybe going back home, eh?

Also, we should make the chosen one hat appear on his head whenever he's not thinking about it, unless he's indoors. A true gentleman never wears his hat indoors.

It would teach him mental discipline

I agree, It would do much to train his thought process, and we should also make it so that the hat is either indestructible/regenerates/reappears when destroyed to get around any possibilities of him loosing it.

>>419556
If it's that big a deal, we could root it to his head.

Well he finds it awkward to run with

>>420734
Yes, and we're trolls. It won't matter, as long as he isn't thinking about it, it'll constantly teleport back onto his head, so he doesn't have to worry about it when running.

He dives low, breaking free of the winds. He can see it all now, how his life has prepared him for this moment. He does not know what lays within tent, only that he must enter.

Mewilk stirs awake from his slumber to the sounds of a small songbird. All he can do is smile pleasenty.

"That was divine. I have never slept so well in my life."

The third day was off to a great start.

Mewilk leaves the tent to find water to clean himself. He finds a bucket and promptly removes the droppings. After drying off, he places the top hat on his head. He will be keeping it there for now.

"Then it wasn't a dream. You are the chosen as the Gods said. At long last, I have found you."

Mewilk greets the knight.The knight introduces himself as Erio Day of Tibic. When asked about his reasons for looking, he restates that he wishes to pledge himself to the chosen. Mewilk says he would be honored to have him. Erio recites the Knight's Oath, fist to his heart.

He will serve you well, I'm certain. As far as we know, there are no survivors. Search around a little, if there are any who didn't flee or die, they are certainly wounded.

other than Kirrel, that is. If she is still alive, you should speak to her.

>>427813
Nope. Just you and whatsherface. What a pleasant looking fellow he is under his scary death armor.

Anywho, let's begin the most important part of killing a camp full a raiders: LOOTING!

Mewilk remembers Kirrel in her cage.

"Excuse me."

Kirrel is awake and looking pitiful. It fades as she sees Mewilk. She perks up and grasps the bars of the cage.
"Mewilk! I am so happy to see you right now!"
"Kirrel, I should tell you your tribe is dead."
"It was lead by a human, it would've happened anyway. Hey, can you get me out of here? I promise to be good."

Erio can be heard shifting through the ashes.

>>427817
Awww, how nice. Better release her, and have her join your newly formed Murder Battalion.

>>427817
I see great promise in her; she will serve you well. Let her out, and tell her she's now a retainer in your service.
Does she have the pendant containing the soul of her tribe's leader so that her tribe may find redemption through service and be restored? That would best not be left behind.

Make her swear in the name of the gods to serve you, then you can let her out. We will keep her to her word.

let her out, she is adorable

I suggest we give her something to make sure shes telling the truth, maybe a pendent that she cant take off without Mewilk's permission and let him know sense where she is and let him tell when shes lying?

You'd BETTER be good, lady.

>>427830
This.

Man, how could you not trust that face. Look how happy she is.

"Ah...yeah, I did."
"Were is it?"
"Right here in my pocket. Took it off because I found it odd. You normally don't get knocked and finding a necklace when you wake up."

Kirrel reaches into a slip, pulling out a simple gold and turquoise gem pendent.

"The Gods gifted you that."
"The Gods, huh?"
"The soul of your chief is stored within."

"Very well, a accept the offer. Now if you would be so kind as to free me."

She steps back from the cage as Mewilk draws his dagger. He strikes the lock, cutting it cleanly in half. Kirrel steps out from the caage to stand in front Mewilk. She brings her fist to her heart.

"I, Kirrel of Hakimba and defacto chief, pledge tooth and claw to Mewilk and his Gods. May we find game and bounty."

Kirrel slips the necklace around her neck. Kirrel holds the turquoise in her hand.

"It's nice, in a morbid sense."
"You know, that sounds just about right."

They begin to stroll in the direction where Erio can be heard.
"So what know, Mewilk?"
"Take what we can salvage."
"So, looting?"
"Yes, looting."


END OF CHAPTER

mmm, delicius looting

make a mental note to hug her adorably fluffy neck

so I wanna know what happened to that prisoner guy.

>>428147
I forgot to color her muzzle. No wonder it looks weird.

>>428240
I'm sure it will never come up or be important again.

Right then, standard looting procedure. Not sure the three of you(and a horse if I recall) can carry a entire camp's worth of loot so focus on small, valuable things, supplies, and getting your bow and arrows back.

As for that other guy, he was likely smart enough to flee the moment he had the chance. He had no loyalty to Mewilk either so he's probably long gone.

Well young Mewilk, now that you have a small group, some spoils, and a good night's rest under your belt, may I suggest looking for the nearest town once you are done looting? They always have plenty to do there and we can sell any loot we find for funds.

Mewilk and Kirrel find Erio looting a corpse. Kirrel seems uneasy.

"Erio, I want you to meet Kirrel."
"A survivor?"
"Don't worry, she has taking the pledge."

Erio stands up and meets Kirrel eye to eye. Erio is silent as he stares into her eyes, making Kirrel's ears press against here head. He reaches his hand out to her and they lock wrists. It brings ease to Kirrel and a smile to Erio. Mewilk breaks the silence with a question.

"Kirrel, I have been meaning to ask. How did you wind up in the cage?"
"Ah, ha...I was running away."
"What a odd place to chose."
"Let me say that again. I was getting READY to run away. When Erio rode in last night swinging and killing, I thought it best to abandon camp. I loaded my mount up with what I could grab. Thought I better take Acru with me since he had a decent bounty on him. When I ducked into to grab him, he got me around the neck with his bindings."

She grabs her necklace pulls it back, demonstrating in a comical method.

"Pretty lucky he didn't kill me. When I woke up my mount was gone along with Acru."

Why do I say end of chapter? Not much happens. sirbriggz 2012/07/03(Tue)02:40 No. 428550 ID: 23bed3

"Yeah, I can be pretty terrifying."

Erio seems prideful as the words slip his lips. He turns his attention back to looting, putting small trinkets and coins into a sack. Mewilk turns his attention back to Kirrel.

"Kirrel, lets find what we can. Remember we can't grab everything."
"I have been looting for most of my life, Mewilk. It shouldn't be a problem."

The trio spend the next few hours pouring over the remains.

So... fluffy...

>>428558
You're all so cute. Even Erio looks like he was once adorable. Anywho, try looting a few of those Man Catchers. They're a pretty interesting looking weapon, and we really need a Symbol for our chosen.

Search for anything that would make a good symbol actually. Something that is NOT a top hat. That's already the Symbol of Linux.

So! Um, man, I think you've got the whole "manhood" part down now for sure. I guess you could go back to your village now. But wouldn't it be more fun to just... go and have some sweet adventures?

>>428562
But top hats are so classy...

>>428600
Home? But he hasn't become a wizard yet, or even met one for that matter.
MAGIC PORTAL! There, I highjacked a summoning spell so there should be a wizard on the other side.

>>428562
Our symbol should be this:

>_

It's perfect for us.

>>428608
That's Suggestion's symbol.

Ooh ooh! I wanna play with the chosen one too! I'm down for leading him around conquering the world. He's already got a couple decent commanders.

I'm not normally into dog-chicks, but they're both kinda cute ones too.

The top hat is kinda a lame symbol, but it's classy, so you can keep wearing it. You need something cool though... like a rainbow! Or a daisy! That would make a cool symbol. A daisy of blood and bones and ash!

I like crabs. Can we give him a little crab familiar? With a top hat, monocle and a cane. Because gentlemen crabs need top hats monocles and canes.

>>428614
That's Cancer Mage's familiar. What we want is a ROCK LOBSTER! or any large riding crustacean really. But we need a symbol of our divinity, something NO ONE can deny that Mewlik is the true scion of the gods... How about a halo of light shining out of his head? That's always in style.

Boys boys, settle down. First things first we need to establish that our Avatar is indeed our avatar. Got to take on something a bit bigger than a small camp. Make a name for Mewilk. Find some artifacts, old ruins, maybe kill a dragon or two. Basic stuff.

As for a familiar? Nothing yet. I say our boy should EARN his familiar. Crabs and rock lobsters are good and all, but if he could get something bigger and tougher, then by all means that should be his familiar.

For the hat? It's a nice hat, but hats don't offer support against arrows or fists to the face. Let's give it a practical helmet mode. Protect the noggin and his face.

>>428625
Well, divine boons usually have extra powers, I don't see reason we can't have the hat make blows hit softer, or maybe give it a once a day barrier effect.
Also, crabs are awesome! How many other species would casually rip off their own arms and walk away?

>>428631
Hmmm, softening blows would likely be good, but why not combine the two? Helmet form with blow softening? That way we have a little something extra to protect him.

As for the crab, may I direct you to the Honey Badger? A beast that has messed with things of various walks of life and simply takes what it wants? Bugger can be bitten by a venomous snake and it will get up and eat the bugger after a rest.

>>428636
Top hats are the second best hat. Helmets aren't.
Also, honey badgers don't give a fuck about anything, what use is a familiar that doesn't give a fuck about it's owner, possibly even attacking its owner for food or fun?

I wish wolverines weren't played out, they're so cuddly. And they can take on a bear, and they can kill a moose. I'd like to see your honey badger kill a moose.

How about we compromise. A riding wolverine familiar with rock-lobster armor. Cuddly rock lobster armor of doom.

Because crustaceans and other critters too wussy to keep their bones inside are dumb.

>>428625

we could give him the talent to be able to tame anything but only if he really really wanted to do so.

>>428658

I second this suggestion. Then he could have any kind of critter he wanted, heck, he could have a legion of Adorable Abominations. (Alliteration is Awesome.)

Also: He should totally go tuxedo mask style with his hat. Plus bond villain. So a mask comes down for armor mode, or he can throw it with amazing accuracy to cut junk up.

Sawsome.

A simple beast tamer boon eh? Fair enough. If he finds something that strikes his fancy he can go for it. Might want to have him limit it to one thing though. Don't want him to befriend an entire forest. Would be too easy.

>>428688
How about we give him Beastmaster powers? Calm and compel animals, commune with them and see through their eyes? But lets hold off on that until he at least finds a new civilization. If he just gets a new power every day, thats kind of lame.

How about we manipulate the world instead for awhile? Make ourselves a new mission?

>>428688
what if we tiered it. Like 1 big thing, or a bunch of small things?

Anyone up for a holy war? I love some blind fanaticism.

>>428862
this seems right

>Even Erio looks like he was once adorable.

This sentence actually made me happy.

Sorry I'm late to this celestial party.
I was just cooking up a quest for Mewlik and Friends. It's still needs some more stirring for greater coherence but here are the raw ingredients:
>shooting stars in the nights-sky that point the way towards Mewlik's destiny
>A city-state being terrorized by a monster that seems to disappear in the surrounding woods
>Morale of the story: GODS ARE MORE FICKLE THAN LIFE
>Drow terrorists

Yeah, so what does my fellow gerdz think of this?

>>429751
But I like Mewlik and co. Why would we disown him? He's amused us so far.

>>429752
nonono
We're fickle to everyone but mewlik and those that follow his philosophy that he will eventually develop before he dies

>>429751
Well I think it goes in /dis/ for one thing.

But making monsters for Mewilk to fight does seem like a good way to train him.

Anyways, we could also sprinkle a bunch of cursed items across the planet/continent and have it be that only mewlik could destroy them.
A bunch of "stupid" people could find these items, and then get turned into monsters when they try to use it. Although some people might be smart enough to use the cursed objects for their own purposes.

i didn't know this thread had a discussion...
I'm new at this!

>>429751
>>429754
>>429764
Okay, due to divine magicks,I hereby decree that Mewilk did not hear that. Srsly guys, he can hear us. What good is a plan if he just knows whats going on?

I say it is time to return to your village, Mewilk. There is nothing more here for you to do, unless you have not already plundered it for whatever treasures it holds, that is.

Torch the remains of the village and the people.

>>430045
Yep, time to go home. Oh and by the way Mewlik, many of us gods have had a falling out. Your instructions may become somewhat more contradictory, so heads up.

What's with everyone saying he should return home. Wasn't Mewlick supposed to survive out here for a week before returning home to the vilage?

>>430087
I should clarify: this simply means "some of the gods are being pansies."

No need to go home yet. You should have enough time to get a decent start on conquering the world before you really need to.

Though if you really want to you can start with your own tribe.

Mewilk hasn't yet become badass enough to go home. He only has two followers and he's not more physically potent than anyone else yet. He should have a tribe and unconquerable strength in battle before he returns. I mean, we're the gods, it's the least we can do for our champion.

>>430147

You're probably right. Mewilk should instead take to banditry for the time being. Make a little money, get a little combat experience. He'll need a disguise of course. Kirrel and Erio, too.

I'd suggest going to another town, finding some mercenary work posted, maybe...

Be sure to pick a great challenge, and put all your faith in us, your gods, to deliver you to victory... heheheh...

>>430132
Banditry eh? I was going to suggest we go find a WIZARD, because every band of adventurers needs a wizard. But hey, becoming a Bandit King in a week seems pretty fun, so let's do it.

Also, Twelvth and Hat are pitiful losers who suck and you shouldn't listen to them anymore Mewlik.

>>430215
No, Mewlik turning to banditry is just going to make us look bad. Not the 'terrible wrath' sort of bad either; the 'those dickbutts' sort.

Well, banditry could work. It depends on what route it'll take for him to get the most followers the quickest. If we want him to be King he needs an army. He's got to start somewhere.

Though being Gods, we should only have him attack people who deserve Divine Retribution. What mortals have been ignoring us more than they should lately?

Also: Boy, don't listen to One. He's just an out-dated old fogey

>>430229
If he has an army, he may as well be a king already. At any rate, there's not much point in spending a whole long time out here when he's only suppose to be gone a week. Just, no going back early, and we shouldn't send him back without something a bit more impressive than what he's got so far. A couple artifacts that we gave him, and a couple followersyears that we pretty much gave him. He should be powerful before he gets back. This is his ritual of adulthood, so it sets the tone for the rest of his life.

On that note, Mewilk, let's find a hostile or neutral tribe here for you to take on. Hopefully this time you won't end up imprisoned right away and the gods won't have to step in directly.

>>430248
Yeah, this.

So up next is finding another tribe to take over? Sounds good I suppose...

Hmm... what to do with the portal then...

Hey mewlik, simple question:
would you prefer that we give you information instead of commands?
