I greatly enjoyed that last post, oh my god the bartender. If anybody has ever read the webcomic "go get a roomie" the same bartender in that 18+ explicit comic series reminds me of ours.
I make a notion that we never name him, that he shall henceforth only be referred to ask "The Bartender".
@Darcs You are on the right track. The first clue leads somewhere on RPG. Though you are viewing this the wrong way, the clue I left leads to another clue, a puzzle if you will. And that puzzle, leads to a search, and that search, ends in the final place.
You are, more than welcome to brainstorm your ideas publicly, but there may be only one winner. When I say show, I literally mean show me, you will understand when you reach the end of this. As for the information you have gathered so far, I will give you this;
"Everything begins with me"
Good hunting ^_^
Also to answer two others questions, you can have multiple guesses, but I'm looking for you to show me something. Secondly, I will provide hints and clues when you give me feedback that's on the right track.
For those of you participating in the event at 4, you shouldn't need to collab with me. When I get a chance in the next day or two I will be posting a full disclosure on the events of the Winged Guardians in an information style layout in the OOC. I will also post it up on the first page for easy referencing, but only temporarily.
Things to expect in the first stage (Evening): Roadblocks, Large mobilizations of Wings, Artillery Explosions, A "front line" defense a mile outside the eastern edge of the city, chaos, more explosion, looting, rioting, panic, fear, Extreme Immortal Prejudice (probably because those funny eyed demons cause this entire thing in the first place.) Patriotism, A Morgan Freeman style narration done by me, explaining the events currently partaking in the city. It may not be a long post, but it's to document the first stage of the event.
Also, like all good events, Everything your characters do, everything they say, every step they make, every breath they take, I will use this against you. Everything has a purpose now, I will be making notes and tipping the scales one of three ways based on EVERYTHING your characters do in this situation. 1: Russel City makes it through this, with enough Winged Guardians survivors to maintain control of the city, likely leading to a skirmish with Darcs' Mafia family. 2: Russel City makes it through this, without enough Winged Guardians to control the city, leaving it vulnerable to more than first meets your eyes. 3: Russel City, rest in peace.
There is, in fact, a more disastrous fourth option. An option so bad, that it would permanently make your characters lives in Dust that much harder. This however, is a secret scenario.
I am working on some supporting information right now.
Last but not least, do keep in mind that I am a loving GM. At the bottom of this post there is a clue, leading to another clue, and another. Get your detective hats on because, regardless if you are actually in the event or not, finding out the answer brings incentive in the form of:
Character "Perk"; The addition of an ability, or power, even if that means you violate the 2:1 ratio. As long as this ability follows the scheme of the powers, it can be whatever you wish. The only catch is that for the sake of balance, I cannot allow it to be OP, but it can be pretty nice. As a bonus incentive, to the winner, I will answer any singular question, no matter what it is. (Just so you are aware, I will not be cryptic about it, I will answer it straight forth and honestly, even if it involves World Lore that I do not wish you to know yet.)
So, who's in? The first person to show us the correct answer wins the incentive, the questions, and unlocks the secret of outcome #4.
It is here where birth comes to fruition, where Idea becomes reality. I am ground zero, the beta section, the firing range, the experimental and the newly developed.
Scratch what I said earlier, I will be unable to finish my story at this time. I apologize, but thank you anyways, I enjoyed making art for this contest.
Oh my good lord jesus ROMAN I LOVE YOU. IN A COMPLETELY HETEREOHOMOSEXUALRAINBOWUNICORN way, whatever strikes your fancy. I've been dealing with a lot, and I mean a shit fuck chaos storm of fuckery lately and I only have about 25% of my story done. 10 1/2, and I have tomorrow off? Time to pull a late nighter, I will be able to finish it now. Thank you.
