QUEST: oh right that was a thing

To any new readers, feel free to participate!
Welcome (possibly back) to QUEST! If you have seen comics like the MS paint adventure series, then you have some idea of how this works. In short, I will draw a picture, you will give suggestions to the character, I will draw a picture, and we will continue this until some sort of end is reached. Not all suggestions will be used, however, but I suppose that may depend on how many people participate. Also, I will mostly be using the pencil tool with a mouse, so art quality is not going to be at the highest level. There is only one real limitation to what you can suggest: I won't draw anything explicitly sexual.

Old QUEST

roleplayerguild.com/topics/81214-quest..

Now hey, since there's finally some time, let's boot up our old game and see where we were on things!







Well, that was unexpected for sure. I guess our old character is dead. Some hospital this is, huh?



You are now playing as the Marcus the Rodent

Darn. It looks like you made it here too late. The hero you were looking for is dead now.



Ever since the monster appeared in your village, there's been nothing but trouble. You and your brother went out in search of somebody or something that could put a stop to it.



You had heard of such a person deep underground, where you are now. Unfortunately...



Whoever was here is dead. Kind of sucks to be you, I guess. Your brother is checking them for anything useful. Wait, hold on a second... What was your brother's name? While you're trying to remember, you should probably figure out what your next move will be...

QUEST: a picture adventure

Looking forward to your next post, good sir. This has been a joy to read all through, and a barrel of laughs to boot. C:

@RIGHTEOUSwench

You know, I was about to give up on this game, but your post changed my mind. Work and other happening in my life have been keeping me busy enough to push this further down on my "things I want to do right at this second" list, but if you guys are willing to keep going, then let's rock and roll! Without further adieu...

>Wait until pillow torch is achieved.
>Take all three light bulbs to facilitate the expression of three future brilliant ideas.

@Vilageidiotx

It took a while, but you managed to make the pillow catch fire. Unfortunately the light-bulbs are now too hot to touch, and it's not really worth the time waiting for them to get cool again. You unhinge your jaw and store the flaming pillow inside of your body, being careful not to let it get extinguished.

>Make a cape out of bedsheets

@Spud

>is that your spoon on the nightstand? IT IS YOU.
>get down and grab your spoon and check to see if it is ok, it might have a broken bone.

@hiddenleafguy

Alas, your spoon is not on the table! I guess it's not that surprising, since it fell separately from you. It looks like there is some sort of box here, a scalpel, your magic scroll, and a roll of duct-tape. You can't fit anymore inside yourself, so you'll have to figure out some other way to carry what you want.

QUEST: a picture adventure

Hey guys, I'll post... Well, it's past 2:30 am right now... But I'll have something for you at a reasonable hour, okay? Sorry to keep you all waiting.

QUEST: a picture adventure

>Turn around so we can see what happened to your horrendously pointless head

@BrobyDDark

Oh, geez, you're hideous! Whoever put you mack together did a really bad job! Forget whatever you were doing before. Your new quest is to get your face back to normal! There is some silver lining to this, though. Now your vision is slightly higher up and you can also pound your chest like a gorilla without getting a black eye.

>Make mating call noises

@Sana

>Is there anything in the room?

>Someone must have bandaged you. Call out, scream, or something to see if anyone comes inside!

@RIGHTEOUSwench

>realize your quest is futile and commit seppuku to restore your clan's honor

@Nerevarine

Despite your current horrible dis-figuration, you are still a genderless space creature. Therefore, you have no mating call. In fact, you are pretty sure that your species comes out of a seed, but you're not sure. You were sick that day of school. Fixing your face seems much more preferable to suicide, and you aren't part of a clan so much as a volleyball club. You'll look around the room in a second, but first you have to try something...

>Hold pillow against lightbulb until it catches on fire.
>Place burning pillow in inventory to use as a light source at some later point.

@Vilageidiotx

... This is taking longer than you thought it would...

My Hider

(This post will be replaced by the actual post sometime on 6/16/2015. Pinky swear. Which - by the way - means that you get to cut off my pinky finger if I don't keep my promise. Fun fact.)

Good news: I get to keep my pinky finger. Bad news: super short post. )

>See the future

>Dream about your dead mentor warning you about The One.

>Wear unisex dress and carry a dog in a supermarket basket

@BrobyDDark

> Wake up
> Suddenly, wake up for a second time
> Realize that it was all just a dream and you actually aren't a stomach-faced alien

@Vordak

Blasphemer!

@BrobyDDark

You have woken up in a dark room. It still smells like underground, so it looks like you are awake and probably not dead.

Apology

Sorry I haven't posted for so long, folks. Real life and some personal stuff have kept me reasonably distracted. Plus, you know, I'm lazy on top of all that.

>get saved by a pterodactyl
>worship the pterodactyl as your new god

@Nerevarine

>Accept Stomachface Jesus into your heart.

@mdk

Well, as it so happens, a pterodactyl is the equivalent of Stomach-Face Jesus. Apparently, reception down here isn't so good, because you have yet to be rescued.

>Flap spoon

@Vilageidiotx

You kind of lost the spoon. It's probably somewhere falling nearby, but you have no way to reach it if it is.

>Do a fucking backflip

@Sana

You can't really do that, there's not enough time to maneuver yourself before you hit-



That's going to need more than a band-aid. You bones are probably powder now. At the very least, they are in deliciously bit-sized pieces. You know the sound a can makes when you crush it? I think that's what your head just made. Before you black out, you see something approaching you.



But hey, while you're unconscious and/or dying, why not have a few dreams?

QUEST: a picture adventure

>Smear blood from knee on the bottom of the spoon.
>Remount blood-lubed spoon and continue riding it down the tunnel.

@Vilageidiotx

>Do a backflip

@Sana

>Resist urge to blood-lube spoon and ride down tunnel
>Calmly walk down tunnel to prevent more injury
>Encounter ???

@TheBrightestEyes

>Weaken ??? then tame it
>Ride it to victory or something

@TheBrightestEyes

>equip bloody spoon as weapon during encounter

>Blood Spoon: 0.5 dmg, causes hepatitis status effect

@Nerevarine

Well, those all sound like lovely ideas, but you've only just snapped back into consciousness. And, unfortunately for you, there is a great absence of ground directly beneath you. You're sure to find some if you wait just a minute, though.

QUEST: a picture adventure

>DON'T FALL DOWN DON'T FALL DOWN DON'T FALL DOWN
>Think about the racial abilities of your genderless, face stomach species
>Do you have alien magic?
>Can you pull things out of your stomach because your mouth is there?
>What does the head do?
>These tough questions need answering.

@BrobyDDark

>Fall down.

@mdk

>Scrape your knee and cry about it

@Nerevarine

Haha, now why would you





Oh.







You go to your happy place to avoid the pain. Okay, answers time! Unfortunately, you do not have any sort of alien magic. You do, however, know a neat trick with a coin. You can't pull anything out of your mouth/stomach area. You tried that earlier, and all you got was a taste of your fingers. As for the head... You don't know. You just assume it's a birth defect or something.

Check back later for part two of this post. I wanted to post at least a little bit, since I have taken so long.

QUEST: a picture adventure

Don't worry, I haven't abandoned you guys (yet). I'm trying to come up with what the next bunches of images are going to be, so it is going to be a little bit before I post anything cool.
