Why, precisely, is a duck when it spins?

The higher, the fewer.

What's the difference between an orange?

How does a blue car?

>>317291
"GE", ange has those extra letters when an doesn't.

>>317292
Slower than a red one.

In any case, this isn't riddle-solving time it is ask Rowan/his characters questions time, so I suppose I will start.

When are we going to see more of MiniLichQuest and will it have more bone-related jokes than the first chapter?

>>317293
As far as Mini Lich Quest goes, I don't have any idea. The biggest issue dealing with that quest is finding a skeletal kobold design that I'm happy with and I haven't worked on that in a while. However if you want to see some Mini Lich quest in a different perspective, I would suggest Ghoul Quest which, though it has a bit more of a serious tone, it follows the same tale in the same world.

OI! I have a complaint tgchan and damnit I'm going to post it into my own topic where it will be ignored. I have seven chapters under my belt for one quest and only two readers! Why is this? Tell me your issues with my quest and I will solve them post haste.

>>317732

Could have something to do with ~20 guys being online while 10 quests are updatan....

Seriously, depending on the time of the day, some quests are on the second page five minuts after getting an update.

Not trying to get on your toes or something, but two readers (and I think you simplified the neumber there) is actually a respectable ratio.

Protip: Don't update while Reaver or Weaver are around, their quests suck up readers like the sun does H2 (although probably justified).

>>317738
Well I must admit I think I may be exaggerating on the number a bit. Though it is rather difficult to tell when I'm only getting one or two suggestions from the same one or two people. What i guess I'm trying to say is if I could get more people's opinions. Honestly I would probably be more motivated to update more often if I knew how big of a fan base I have.

I have no clue what the fuck's going on in darkness quest anymore.

>>317743
Quick Summary of all the events then. (Been meaning to do this for a while)

Darkness element escapes lab. Rescues Grue. Recruits human. Human becomes shadowsworn. All three recaptured. Escaped with help of crazy janitor. Escaped into elemental plane. Darkness gets busy with grue for grue babys. Darknees goes to bar in center of weird ass town. Darkness revealed to have died centuries ago. Darkness based elementals forced into exile.
QUICK TRANSITION!
Lightning elemental leaves for weird town. Lightning elemental tries to help a pair of twins. ITS A TRAP! Lightning elemental averts trap, is recruited.
ANOTHER TRANSITION
Eyeball dude says hummie and grue can't exist in elemental plane. OH NOES! RESCUE TIME! Points of possible return are, cave they got their from, center of planet reachable at edge of world, and getting help from hummie side.
TRANSITION
Now controlling shadowsworn and grue.

And thats the gist of the story so far. If you need me to clear up any details just ask.

Hello Hello again Questers and the like. For those of you who may or may not have noticed, Zombie Quest has come to an abrupt halt. This is due to a combination of my own laziness, mental health issues, and physical health issues. So to clear things up, it has NOT ended, I WILL continue it, and due to some recent issues involving ownership rights, a new quest might be beginning soon. Zombie Quest will re-continue shortly, but for now I'm being a lazy ass in my recovery. Also The next chapter of darkness quest will be arriving shortly. Within the next month or so. Thanks for being patient and screw you for those who aren't. Thanks and if you want to see the source of most of my issues currently, please ask, or else I'm not gonna. Cus I'm like that.

What is with you people? You ask me to update, i update, and then what? You ignore it all. You give me bs suggestions, I mean granted I should expect it by now but seriously I'm trying to run something legit here and I get bull shit like cheese and fucking crackers. You have no idea how much that pisses me off right now. Granted I know it's stupid raging at the internet but I'm just trying to get into your heads that I'm not just making this as a joke. This is a serious quest, and I know I haven't been treating it as such due to the infrequent updates, but please, for the love of my very small amount of sanity please, PLEASE at least try to figure out whats going on and don't just post the first random thought that pops into your head. I'm begging you here.

The stated goal is wasting a week. The suggestions are to waste a week to regain mobility. That's BS? And it's not like the metaplot is being ignored, some suggestions go to it too.

>>320737
While I understand where you would get the idea that that would be the case, however it was my intention to give you the information you asked for, not the goal that was supposedly specified. I like subtle goals. They keep the true purpose of a character secret until the need for the grand finale arises. And it's not like you didn't have other things you could do. The other thing I like to do with my quest is provide a mass quantity of cross roads. And while in most situations I would allow such goof questions, I stated that I was ASKED to progress the quest. If you want me to progress a quest I require some quest progressing suggestions.

OKAY! After some clarifications made on irc, it has been made clear to me that some things need to be cleared up. One: No my other quests are not done unless stated otherwise, they are on hold and they will remain so until I can fill up some of the plot holes they contain or otherwise, this follows through with Donatio's quests i.e. Zombie Quest. This does not fall true for Alim quest (as of now) but due to my current schedule (hectic) that is subject to change. In the mean time Darkness Quest will be my main focus. And speaking of focus that brings me to my next clarification, I am currently trying to schedule all my future updates for the weekends. If I miss them I will update later in the week unless my schedule changes. And my third and final note in regards to quests is the current plot of Darkness Quest. This is not a new quest and is hard to catch up on and learn about due to the shifting perspectives and scenery. So for anyone who wishes to pick up on darkness quest in it's current stage here is a brief run down of what has happened.

ahem...

Scientist makes living darkness, living darkness meets grue and robber hired by boss who manages scientist, darkness imbunes robber with darkness, scientist runs test on darkness. They escape into alternate dimension with help of mysterious janitor. Alternate dimension lacks a being of darkness, darkness takes on the role. Shit goes down that's minorly irrelevant but we are introduced to rebellion and shocky the neutral force that's teamed up with the rebellion out of search for action. Chaos fucks shit up giving all elementals humanoid forms. Robber unlocks power of darkness. they meet up with local dessert villager, he "joins" party. They head to docks to find a ship to take them across ocean. And that is where that is left off.

On a separate side you meet Odd, an interesting robot sent on a mission to spy on the heros.

And then there is Six the mysterious being who is the only one able to contact you of his own will. You recently killed chaos using his own powers against him, and now you and him need to find a new body for chaos to inhabitate or shit will start getting fucked up out the whazoo.


any questions?

This may be the beginning of a bold new adventure. Should I continue?

Yes. Hey, why not the colored version?

>>323879
sure, why not.

so are we thoughts in the bold's head, voices from the ring, or Legion style extra-planer being?

>>323889
You are voices in the ring that only the wearer can hear, simple as that.

And to those of you who are questioning the reason why I said no bashing, it's because it highly disrupts my thought process and affects the end results of an update, this reasoning also coincides with me bringing up the second part of the authors note. I just don't want another of my quests to fall into the ground like all those previous due to a lack of direction again.

i think darkness quest started falling apart when you gave them human form. he was no longer 'the darkness' he was some guy with darkness powers.

>>323904
There are many things I think, but the point is, it's going at too slow a pace to simply keep going with it, and while my updates are a key factor in that problem, I was kinda hoping that I would be getting suggestions at a much faster rate. Which I was getting at the start of the quest. While some of you may disagree, I simply want to start that quest over from the beginning at another point in time.

QUESTIONS!

So far, the Hunter/Carpenter/Fisherman skills are pretty obvious.

Power Swing is a strong hit with a swinging weapon.
Power Thrust is a strong hit with a thrusting weapon.
Precision Strike is a careful hit with a WHATEVER weapon. Like, +tohit or +crit or something.
What I don't get is:

Alchemical fire: Is this like, a flashbang type thing or can he actually shoot fire from his hands?
Chemical treatment: What is this, an acid spray?

Massive Swing: Okay I'm going to guess this is either an upgraded Power Swing or an AoE attack.
Burning coal: No idea. Throwing coal that's on fire seems like a bad idea since well, you have to touch them, and the Blacksmith class doesn't come with gloves.

>>323962
Okay, Alchemical fire and burning coal are similar in that they are both fire based attacks.

Alchemical fire: Basically you take a flask of liquid fire and throw it at the target, if it hits, the target takes burning damage over time.

Burning coal: Coal works differently in this land, it's basically a spark stone that self ignites. You throw one of these stones at the opponent and if it hits, it explodes causing massive damage.

Massive Swing is basically an AoE regular attack. As you said.

Chemical treatment: Basically you take the potion you have equipped and you use it on yourself or your target.

(These techniques would be special if not for the fact that you might find these items on your journey.)

Please excuse today's missed update. I am working on it right now and I promise it's gonna be big.

Sorry for missing the updates for Bold Quest, right now I am buckled down by my finals for this and past week I should be up and running again on a regular schedule by Tuesday of next week. until then stay tune for sporadic updates. and just a note, no real time does not transfer into game time, and the current event will not take up any time in which to train for those of you who are worried about that. Just thought I would keep you informed.

alright finals are over and that means more bold quest starting today... as soon as i get these chores done... sorry for all this wait... hey why am I the only one posting in this? are none of you concerned for the health of my quests? I feel insulted how dare you, and you wonder why I don't follow a solid updating schedule. No respect is what it is, hell if I stopped doing quests all together i doubt any of you would notice. pay a quest maker his respects why dontcha then maybe ya might see more of him.

Facebook status: a little bit pissy

(no not really... I don't use facebook.)

>>325278
I think most people were too busy with finals to go "Okay".
