[Warning! This quest will be extremely NSFW and contain VORE (duh)]

Viron city…

A city nearly abandoned by law, where the main rules are that of predator and prey.

Oh boy, being named after a historical figure the mouse likely has zero context of. And on top of that, being named general and expected to betray the rest of the survivors to 'join' the mad king's little play.

Humor the king for now to see his 'wonders' but make no promise you can sway the people as a single mouse. Maybe ask some probing questions about your 'role'. Stuff like 'what brands us as barbarians within this house?', or 'what do you know of our ways or culture?'.

Also possibly cast derision at his troops since you're seemingly allowed to do so. 'Your words may ring true here, but your troops act unspeakably in the dark corners of House Cadvere where few can witness their crimes. They maim and strike without warning, offer no surrender, kidnap us like mere beasts or slay when convenient.' and the like.

The madman is clearly an expert (al)chemist, they could just lace the food with poison and kill everyone - or sedate everyone to allow them to be effortlessly captured en-masse. Or some other horrible concoctions.

'Delivering' the food would also expose the hidden colony. Negotiating with him will just end badly as they're clearly mad.

Notable is that the Master might not even be human (could be a small/large animal trying to be human), alive (revenant or half-dead), or mobile (seems to be monitoring the whole house with glass-eye cameras, likely from one place he never leaves). The mansion is clearly decrepid and he likely never left the attic in weeks. He also doesn't seem to sleep, given a single sound alerted him to the mice in one specific room and the mice never seemed have periods where there is no risk of puppets.

Best guess, scientist who did a frankenstein puppet show for guests as part of a grand dinner party, got disgraced/disowned for how macabre it was, and went into mad isolation for their genius not being recognized. Might also be paraplegic or suffering some kind of ailment that limits his mobility, hence the need for servants.

This 'kingdom' of his also seems... Childish at best, or an escape from reality. A man-child, or maybe an actual child?

So let him elaborate on his idea and the logistics of how it will work out. Is he willing to let you go in order to bring your people to him? If that is the case, then play along with it, but I fear that this will go in the direction of you needing to tell him where your people are while he is torturing you for that information. The more we know how he envisioned all of this to happen, the more information we have about knowing where the weak points in his plans are.

Early autumn is pleasant in Cedar Ridge. Summer's hottest days are behind you and the shade of the Douglas fir trees that blanket the town keep the underbrush cool.

North of the lake that divides the town are sets of woods. Interrupted only by mud roads and storm drains that rarely see use outside of the rainy season. This grove is only a mile from the town's one high school. Frequented by teens and alcoholics alike for bonfire parties that leaves the smell of ash in the air. This far east into Oregon the breeze is warm and sluggish, trapped in by mountain ranges.

From where you stand you can hear when the occasional truck passes through Cedar Ridge's main road. Barely. It helps you keep your facing when you're unsure which way is home.

You are in the north in the outskirts of town.

New reader, here to offer a potential theory: What if the pickle jar contained a live venomous animal? One that was freed when the jar broke, and then stung, bit or slashed Riley while she was probing in the dark.

And the weird sensation afterwards could be attributed to venom (which could have hallucinogenic effect and be slow-acting) or a transmittable pathogen like Rabies. It could be something as mundane as Tetanus too.

If Riley continues to have weird symptoms or her physical/mental state worsens, she may need to check with a doc and get a blood test at the very least. The wound may have healed but something nasty might be in her bloodstream.

We are trying to be subtle here...

Go on tour, continuing our tiny modifications as we go.
>>
No. 1129352 ID: 0404f2

tell her the tour sounds lovely and ask her to lead the way.

Just remember to ask a lot of questions so she has to focus on you just as much as the tour and to keep your subtle manipulations going on her whenever she looks your way or talks to you. Once the manipulations start getting her noticeably aroused start acting like you're getting more comfortable around her and become a little more clingy. As in moments when you can't think what to talk about walk close enough for your shoulders to touch or even try and hold her hand if you think she wouldn't mind. If she tells a joke or a happy story give her a quick hug when expressing your own joy. And every time the two of you touch make the subtle pleasure rise slightly for when your touch last longer then a moment or in instances where the contact is brief give her a sharp and large amount of pleasure but make it so quick it could easily be dismissed as a trick of her mind.

Other than that go through the tour and show genuine interest in both what she's talking about and in her, be friendly and kind and show you're starting to open up to her yourself and trust her more, and never leave her side to keep the manipulations up even if she tries to distance herself from you to make it seem like she is getting hella worked up around you.

Oh and on a side note, if she ever makes any remarks or jokes about dating, hanging out, or just being around you give a small jolt of pleasure to her only slightly more noticeable then what you're doing to her normally to "encourage" these thoughts and a much sharper and stronger jolt if she ever mentions anything about sex or making out to you, while you yourself will always take such questions or remarks as her just being friendly and opening up to you to keep up the air of innocents you're trying to build up.

I’m liking what I’m hearing! Let’s also use our subtle rewards system for any time she interacts with her new flower. We’ve given her an object that she associates with us~ That object should quickly become her favorite thing, and if she gets pleasant tingles from looking at and/or touching it, that’ll certainly speed the progress along~ Gives us an extra hook to wiggle into her heart. “Ohhhh~ Why do I feel like this when I pay attention to the flower?? Do I feel the same way about… him??? *looks at us and the feeling intensifies* M-Maybe…” Every little detail counts~

Rosary: “Hope I gave your girlfriend a concussion.”

Kaari: “Hope you get life without parole for what you did.”

Rosary: “I-I’ve…got cash and resources to bail and run, rabbit. Wh-what do you have?”

Kaari: “I have my loving girlfriend Lana, and she’s all I’ll ever need!”

Okay, what benefit does she get from telling us this? The fact that she is saying these things to you means she fears prison more than death for some reason and wants you to finish her off... if she's not the gang leader, could the actual leader be scary enough to punish her in prison and make her suffer a fate worse than death? I can't think of any other reason why she would want us to kill her other than not wanting to talk in trial.

In any case, I don't think this is a petty enough crime for her to simply help her bail out of prison. And if for some reason it is, there's always witness protection services, which would suck, but it is what it is. She is just trying to scare you into acting.

For now, just ask why in the world she would even be telling you this stuff, other than to scare you into murdering her? What does she have to gain? What's she scared about?

Shes trying to get you to finish her.

Everything she said reinforces a position that her surviving this is bad for you.
If she wanted to survive she wouldnt share any of this.
Therefore;
Shes either trying to get you close enough so she can try to overpower you.
Or
She actually fears the consequences of being taken alive.

A bigger deal to consider with being connected with a deity is that it is unfathomable in thinking and morality. And that there is a possibility it is influencing you without you realizing it (think marionette happily dancing its jig).

What if this being manipulates you, or worse, demands outright, that you commit a supernatural atrocity? Something that aligns with your goals but you as a person would vehemently oppose?

What if the deity decides that you need to be offed like Red Fang was?

We've seen firsthand that a deity is able to inflict punishments worse than death (arguably). What if your protector of the weak decides it smite 'the strong' on a scale of nations?

Let's not forget some truly outstanding coincidences that occurred around Muschio.

Such as him accidentally burning down an entire town via an unlikely domino effect of events.

Or how a person he buried alive is now one of his most trusted allies.

Divinity hanging over Muschio might be literally manifesting these coincidences.

It's also possible that most visions are the divinity doing the equivalent of 'Look what I did!' to Muschio.

An unnecessary but interesting foray into the lore of our world: History has led us to broadly reject the idea of magic, but that has not stopped magical thinking. While we had once thought the world was magical, we were able to create detailed theories describing nearly every single mechanism and predict how systems would develop further and further forward. Anything that can be theorized about and predicted, we call science. We call everything else magic. The ways of science have become so advanced, in fact, that it is widely believed that everything can be explained by it in one way or another, though we may not know it yet.

Thus, the existence of magic is more of a philosophical question than a physical one. This leads to a big complication when it comes to the idea of a "soul", though. The word "consciousness" has come to replace the word "soul" in scientific discussions, but it hasn't replaced the idea. Fundamentally, the issue is that consciousness is pretty much impossible for us to define. We can describe aspects of our own conscious experience, but we can't actually observe consciousness in other people. A crucial step in the scientific method (The set of rules we follow to 'make' science) is observation, and since we can't make observations, we can't really apply science to consciousness. (There is debate about this, but the fact that there is debate at all is an indication of the issue)

The belief in an afterlife comes from a time before modern science, but it nonetheless stays relevant because of the questions science can't currently answer.

Also, it should be noted that the information you receive about our world comes from a tiny self-selected slice of the population, so you aren&#

Fox here. This one isn't urgent. So... Souls. In some parts of existence, as far as the locals are concerned, there is no empirically observable gods, no empirically observable souls, no empirically observable magic, no empirically observable afterlife, no observable aspects of reality with an inherent moral agenda at all. In those places, sometimes the word 'soul' even gets used to describe the body parts made of matter! In that part of things, there is a deterministic, matter-based reality, based on reductionist principles with bottom-up causation processes causing emergent phenomena. And this can actually make, over sufficiently large timescales, based on the concrete, unchangeable mathematical laws of physics, the following things: life, life with a basic level of awareness, and life with full intelligence and self awareness and the capacity to grow.

I feel like a gave a pretty generalist overview of things. Death is an unknown and people have various ideas about it.
I also share the whole "mind and soul are the same thing" perspective.
It's mostly why I was so horrified by Mina's explanation of your afterlife. A ton of uncomfortable implications with the ways the gods are mucking about with people there.

Unlike Magic, Science is not a search for quintessential truth. Science is about determining what is impossible and calculating the improbability of what is improbable.

Truth to one person may mean something entirely different to another, thereby preventing the transmission of understanding from one school of magical thought to another. But with science? We find what is impossible for everyone, and then it is up to them to decide what they wish to do with the remainder; what may be possible for anyone.

The results speak for themselves. With a sandbox of unexplored possibility combined with a set of fundamental constraints restricting us from the contradictory, tools designed from such scientific inquiry are engineered to be usable by anyone.

But these days, we find ourselves adrift in ignorance. Starved of magic, we fall into delusions and tribes. And the worlds are getting... stupider. When one cannot scientifically disprove that a tool of science is bereft of any magic whatsoever... well. It's not looking good.

Animal videos! Building a birdhouse is interesting, but you might get too absorbed into it when you're just trying to pass time. The spooky ghost video looks like a clue to something we shouldn't worry about at the moment. Cute animals are always fun.

If the video isn't to long maybe give it a peek and we'll let you know if it's the same guy that we saw last night or not. Then maybe the bird house video if for no other reason then to give yourself something to think about throughout the day that won't give you stress.

I can’t imagine she does.

It’s ridiculous to even consider. How would she even know?
………
Unless… could she already have spies among the mercenaries? No, that’s silly. I only just learned of their location how would she have embedded a spy? Regardless, it’s not even been an hour since I switched my eye from the toiler to the valkin. Even if Silver had managed to infiltrate their ranks to learn what happened to her patsy and assuming the spy would be aware of why she would matter at all there hasn’t been enough time for her to receive that information. It’s conceivable through magic but again I can only conclude ‘no’. I certainly don’t watch through her eye very often but I’ve never seen even a hint that she’s dabbled in such heresy with her own hands or through an intermediary. It would be too big a weakness if Steel learned of it and wanted to depose her. Maybe-

Im torn over you.
I admire your abandoned goal to tear this place down, i even admire just aiming to gain your own freedom.
But, im not happy about poor asher.
That said, theres more than you to blame for how it went.

There is something ive noticed were significantly better than you at.
Maybe its because were not trying to keep so many plates spinning, but we havent missed any words like you do when lip reading through your eyes.

Oh, and your faith in numbers over technology is, unfortunately, as naive as your dream of tearing down the mountain.
Weapons are called force multipliers for a reason.
And it gives asymettrical warfare a distinct advantage.
The tip of their spear will be small enough to slip into places larger forces would falter and be murderously sharp, so to speak.
I dont say this to cause you undue distress. Well.
Maybe a little, because im still grumpy about asher, but not much.

In the same way your dream of tearing down the mountain was tempered by experience into something more acheivable...
Right now, you are as inexperienced in facing weapons like these as younger self was the realities of life in your mountain.
And, its worth remembering, technology develops with the pace of a rockslide, especially under the motivation of war.
Little bits at first, a percievable quicker slide of larger things... then before you can react a rumble and youre crushed.
Well, worth considering, eh?

No dice. Been trying to convince this fella to change his mind about his deeds and self all morning.
So far, he is deciding whether his stance should be "I don't care" and "Maybe I should start hating that Asher girl since you won't shut up about her."

C'est la mort, or whatever it is they say.

So!
I suppose we should discuss strategy with Silver on what to do while we wait for the Preceptors to gather.
Also, probably check back on what Steel and Haddik are doing right now, if we have the time.

>my mo- mentor.
D'awww! You almost said it.
Let's hope she feels the same way.
Who knows, she may even arrange for your exile instead of your execution if you get caught!

OH NO! Grem axe is too good! But how will Grem make new axe into old axe? Grem rather not wait for it to be old like elder kobold.
>We use axe on wood. Wear axe down. Then get old looking axe and wood for trading!
But axe is heavy and Grem is tiny. Grem not made to cut wood, Grem made to eat moss and be mighty wizard. Also, making new axe into old axe take long time, Grem not have long time.

>We have one more easy step in our trading chain. We need to find someone with a worn down axe, and give them a free upgrade!
Yay! Trade axe for axe! Easy! Now Grem just need to find someone with old axe to trade…
>Changing one item into another? Magic! Grem transmogrificate!
Gremogrification! Grem already named Wizard Grems greatest magic. Now Grem just need to learn magic.

If Grem will trade then Grem need stall, and lucky for Grem Grem already has Grem stall called Grems’s Grem stall for Grem. Yay! Grem will now trade new axe for old axe, as well as friend rocks and moss for shiny. Kobolds love friend rocks and moss.


>While waiting can pick flowers and make a hair garland. Girls like those right?
But flowers not like getting put in water. Makes them sad. Merman do not want to give sad flowers to Mergal. Grem have to find other thing Mergal want. Thing that likes going in water. Or at least indifferent to water.

"The Consort is amazing, it is no surprise the nonpeople lust after him too" Muamti sighs.

"...he is good." Naqzamti agrees.

Loquui is conflicted. One the first claw, she is proud that she was first to see the Consort's divinity. She is also happy the Consort lives, and vindicated that he shows his prowess over Loquui's sisters. Oon the other claw Loquui is furious and also wants to kill Muamta because she is clearly trying to steal the Consort from Loquui. But Loquui always wants to kill Muamta.

Hey, before we begin, thanks for coming and if you need a refill there’s ginger ale and Dr. Yipp in the mini fridge.

Ahem

Out in a lonely system, orbiting a common Class-K star floats the Great Station Zub. A monument to many technological advancements, with many papers written and awards given over its engineering. A beacon of unity, years of negotiations were had, treaties were signed and ratified, and cooperative hopes realised to bring both the station and it’s following peace to life. A dream of a utopia and taking those steps towards a better future for all.
Of course, there were cracks in the dream before even the first ink dried. Corners were cut to save time and money, ulterior interests were prioritised in exchange for handling expenses, and exceptions to rights were carved out in the fine print.

It would be tragic if the tale wasn’t so common.

And so it is with this backdrop we find our spacefarers, (sorry, spacefarer). Currently a nobody living on the Great Station for reasons not even they fully know. Will they achieve a great destiny, or will they find comfort in their own purpose.


Okay, since this is a new game system, I was thinking I’d roll the character for you. I just want to avoid overwhelming and info dumping as much as possible. Got a lot of tables here that we’ll be rolling on and maybe down the line you can create something from scratch once we’re both comfy with the rules. I was also planning on holding off on explaining some of the core mechanics until we get to our first Dice Check. If you really want me to go over it right away I can but for now the main gist is that you’re going to be automatically succeeding at most checks and it’s more about mitigating and recovering damage from doing so.

And with that, let’s roll some bones!

>Go get that job!
>Go to Mx Stibbs office and check whether they're actually in there or not.
You decide to go ahead and try to get a job from Mx. Stibbs. Following the directions you recieved, you go down the hallways first a right, then a left and another left, you head up, and then backtrack because you were supposed to take a down. With that, you find yourself in a dead end with several doors with names on them. Some even have over-wrought titles, however either Stibbs hasn’t bothered putting it’s title up on their door or they haven’t been in this office for long enough. Regardless, you knock on the door and it automatically slides open, seemingly set to allow for visitors.

The room inside is rather dimly lit, with just a couple of work lamps dutifully lighting only their respective stations. There is a undiscernable scent in the air, of solvents, cleaners, and particulates circulating around before getting picked-up by the overworked filter unit. Floating at the other end of the room from you is a pyramidal frame with balled points. Almost like a model of some sort of molecule. Inside the pyramid shape is a soft glowing cloud that ebbs and flows about, dimming and brightening, contracting and expanding on some unknown whims. Descending out of the cloud and below the pyramid structure is what appears to be a clear, glove-like appendage with four fingers wrapped around a heavy looking wrench. While the whole of the creature doesn’t react towards you, the large tool is swung in your direction upon you entering the workshop.
“Who the fuck are you?” They demand.
It’s a bit hard to describe it’s voice. It sounds... large. Like there’s a giant creature in the room trying it’s best to speak at a volume that won’t destroy your eardrums and only slightly succeeding. It’s irritated and impatient tone only amplifying it’s presence of sp

If they’re going to side with Sophie they’d better give her the broken Curi core soon before Warrior gets hungry.

Did, did the Dungeon Master defeat those slimes by unbirthing them!?

For the encounter, I think the adventurers could use a humorous section, having to hide the lewdness from the more innocent slimes lest they face Sophie's wrath and/or tears. We could simultaneously put them in more and more embarrassing situations as the encounter progresses to make the encounter tougher, using the slime in and on everyone as a catalyst.
Also, is the warrior slime change permanent? Toggled? No matter what, I suspect it's relevant to Dungeoneer's interests.

Lewd, horny or generally non-sfw actions in the presence of the smol slimes will result in penalties for the entire party.
Not sure what kind of penalties, but such actions shall not be permitted infront of those innocent eyes!

I've got an idea for a hazard. The mud is subtly animated and gradually accumulates on their bodies as they go through it; if there's too much on them when they gwt attacked by another monster, it will harden into clay restraints that leave them at the monster's mercy. There are vines for them to climb out of the mud slime, which stays attached to the ground if they successfully raise themselves... but there are also fake vines that are actually tentacles, and if they climb one of those, the tentacles will grapple and grope them instead.

Not sure it's wise to make a challenge out of avoiding lewdness in front of little slimes. A challenge means a chance of failure, and that means a risk of exposing innocent slimes to inappropriate imagery.

But it could work if we made it something like Sophie being shy and not wanting them to get too horny around her before she trusts them. She will reward them with sex after her quest, but she'll also want to bind them during the scene unless they've been on their best behavior, with lewder behavior earning heavier bondage.

And it would be even more fun with someone trying to sabotage them, maybe as a prank on Sophie, maybe to protect her by "revealing the adventurers' true nature". Which of our characters would do that?
