Hear ye, hear ye. I hereby call to order this meeting of the most illustrious Mages Guild! Now I know some of you have been excited about the reopening of our magical obstacle course of magical death and dismemberment so that we can once more watch all the apprentices run through it to test their mettle, and thin down the crowd. And I know a lot of you apprentices and initiatives are interested to know what the grand prize we are offering this year for whoever survives the race and gets to the finish line first. Well it seems you might never get to know because a group of concerned parents have come to complain, something about it being "irresponsible" and "unsafe for their children". Of course it's unsafe, it's a magical obstacle course of magical death and dismemberment, it's supposed to be unsafe, that's the point! Normally I would suggest we just kill the angry mob but the diplomancers have warned us that we have met our quota for killing people at our doorstep and that we need to solve it in a way that doesn't make us look quite so terrible and uninviting. Now hurry up and get thinking!Welcome to the Mages' Guild. Pick a name and join in! Conflicts are resolved with d20s when needed, or with playing it out. When the thread dies on /tg/, we keep it going on archive.4plebs For additional resources, please visit http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Mage%27s_guild

By Lolth, is this what you bored brutes worry about when you're bored?
>>45073796
Have your tried not getting the necromancers to bring the apprentices back to life?
>>45073847
Edgymancer
>>45073796
Uh... How about we cancel the obstacle course like they want? That way, you know, nobody dies!
>>45073883
Can I go a meeting without some Mage pretending like they know magic insulting my social disposition?
Can't we just...not run a lethal obstacle course? I don't know, it seems like that's the easiest solution.
>>45073796
Have we met the quota for dismembering them at our doorstep?
>>45073925
we accidentally parked the mages guild on the Sleepomancer meeting 3 months ago.
>>45073891
>>45073912
It is survival of the fittest. Accelerated selection. To deny it is to support weakness.
>>45073883
Wait, Jill, are you [b]for[/b] the obstacle course of death!?
>>45073943
Um, shouldn't the sleepomancers be part of the guild?
>>45073796
This is unacceptable! I put a lot of work into the maze section of the obstacle course, and I was depending on the dead apprentices to be available to my department once the race was over!
>>45073961
They are part of the guild, now they're extra part of the guild after we crushed them.
>>45073957
Not all of us are pure naturalists.
>>45073980
...if I solve this do the corpses come out of my debt?
>>45073910
oh shush.
>>45073961
what? Of course not! Oh whoops looks like I added a not in there. heh my bad.
>>45073980
Oh? so is K.D. competing in the maze this year?
>>45073957
But, everyone has the potential to be strong![i]test[/i]
>>45073980
>Lurco sighs
Sometimes I forget that sanity does not have the same requirements here.
>>45073989
Oh geez...
>>45074010
ADAM!
>>45073883
Their corpses are ours by right once they fall, it's in the agreement they sign before the race.
>>45073912
What's the fun in that?
>>45073925
Individual incidents added up over the last month or so.
>>45073989
You could say they are now constituents.
>>45074010
Yes! In fact, they are worth twice as much!
>>45074016
Hells no!
>>45074050
>Smirk
>>45074034
Heya Marus.
>>45074021
Do you know the mortality rate of redrobes? If they've signed up they know the risks.
>>45074050
Okay...let me figure out...something.
>>45074016
>Sighs again
So, uh, who was your friend? Also, here.
>Hands you a letter
It's my gift to you for evolving. Open it later, okay?
>>45073980
I see a simple solution to this. There are still chainsawmancers, why not kill 2 birds with 50 redrobes?
>>45074016
what are you going to do, write over my name tag?
>>45074034
>is trying not to laugh
>>45074100
I'm listening, how will the chainsawmancers solve this problem?
>>45074096
Can we talk about this after the meeting?
>>45074100
not a bad idea honestly.
>>45074086
Hello Jill, how are you dear?
>>45074094
But, but, but...
>>45074160
Uh, sure?
Tell them we will cancel if they go through that door and come out the other side, that door being the entrance to the death maze.
Or we could loose a hydra in the dorms
>>45074157
well this is hafling science as they say. They we pepper and paint the chainsawmancers with some chromomancy, and we assign a color to each Redrobe. I say we let them play 'tag'
>>45074185
we're killing this red robes one way or another, you can be appalled, or you can join in the fun.
>>45074189
No, we already killed all the dumb ones.
>>45073796
A DEATH RACE! This sounds quite exciting if you ask me! I'm sure I could convince some of the rogues back at the Adventurers Guild to sign up for you guys. After all, I'm sure they'd love a chance to show off!
A-Am I in the right place? The flyer said the walking castle was the right place...
>>45074189
That is a horrible idea talo!
>>45074212
I'll choose my own path and not involve myself any further.
Though I do like that idea with the chainsawmancers. I would like to fight against their leader though.
>>45074246
Yep, this is the place.
>>45074244
Adventure's guild? I'm pretty sure that would end horribly.
>>45074246
That depends if the right place is the mages guild, now doesn't it. Hi, i'm Jill.
>REEWWWWMMMM!
YOU MOTHAFUCKAS WILL LOOSE TO US CHAINSAWMANCERS, CHAINSAWMANCERS RULE!
>A very squeamish chainsawmancer talks
We signed a cease fire. The revolt is over, but chains-
SHUT UP NERD! CHAINSAWMANCERS RULE!
>>45074246
All kinds of wizards are welcome here.
>>45074189
The last time someone let lose a hydra in the dorms we lost an entire department from collateral damage. Let's not do that again.
>>45074212
That sounds terrible! What do you need from me?
>>45074244
If they wish then they are welcome to join. Here is the entry form.
>presents very long contract
They just have to sign at the bottom, I'll handle the rest.
>>45074246
If you're looking for the mages guild, then you're at the right place.
>>45074281
Nay! It would be a great idea! It'll be a great chance for competition between my Guilds Mighty Rogues! Hell, it might even show the Minor rogues how to find and disable traps PROPERLY!
>>45073796
Good news everyone, I have come up with a new addition for the obst- what do you mean the obstacle course is cancelled!?
>>45074322
Hm... I'm going to need say.... 37 more?
>>45074246
But the ones who don't want their fellow guild members to kill each other go to the "Guild of Mighty and Minor Adventurers"! ...Otherwise known as "The Adventurers Guild"!
>>45074246
Sure, we let anyone in, all you have to do is survive our death gauntlet which is not being done for quota.
>>45074322
>>45074282
well it seems like only Necromancers would be brave enough to drop a rumor we might be doing another budget cut meeting.
>>45074276
Just get some paint before you do.
>>45074244
Greetings, mister?
>>45074335
......So your guild isn't filled with nothing but murder hobos?
>>45074322
>Smug animu girl face
>>45074281
Pleasure to meet you. The uhh, paper thingy said that anyone who could cast was welcome to visit and I can c-cast five spells, or was it six? I may have just forgot one. Let's go with five to be safe.
>>45074362
What was the addition, out of curiosity?
>>45074380
Jill, we're full of Magic Murder Hobos. we're talking about the most Murder Hobo activity of the year!
>>45074388
Oh jeeze don't say that so loud, people might hear you. So you're self trained or something?
>>45074409
We're not hobo's we have the guild as a house.
>>45074282
Enjoy your lives while they last murderers.
>>45074335
Hm, I don't think my group has a representative for the Adventurer's Guild yet.
>>45074388
Actually, anyone that can use magic, doesn't even need to be a proper spell!
>>45074368
That won't be a problem.
>pulls a couple of more out of his sleeve
>>45074372
Really? You're trying to sic the chainsawmancers on us? Corpses aren't cheap these days.
>>45074380
>raises an eyebrow
What?
>>45074372
I? I am Nyle Ransdorm! Slayer of the Great Beholder Wannabe "Gary Big Eye", Destroyer of the Ork Shamen "Orsworbs", Savior of the Erta Valley and all of it's inhabitants! But more Importantly! I, Nyle Ransdorm, amthe Guild Master for "The Guild of Mighty and Minor Adventurers"! Or to the rest of you, "The Adventurers Guild"!
>>45073796
We could make it so that after they enter the labyrinth, they are chased by illusions of their worst fears
>>45074471
Woopsie, dropped my tag
>>45074401
Hello Marus. Well, some of the girls brought back this partially shape shifting monster and was wondering what to do with it until I mentioned the obstacle course.
>>45074442
Do you have a better plan of riling them up for the course?
>>45074426
Jill, hoboism is both a condition and a why of like, like how you dress like you were just saved from living in an alley.
>>45074471
Sir, you dropped your name tag.
>>45074458
Another one 'ey? Are you going to live longer than the last one?
Okay guys, I gotta get going, see ya'll later.
>Exits through a maw portal
>Teleports back in.
I don't know what just happened. I choose to blame Pierre.
>>45074380
EXACTLY!
... Well The current one isn't anyways...
>>45074435
OF COURSE NOT! We were just recently charted by the Kingdoms of the Continent of Aurthoran!
>>45074442
Great! Simply have one of your Guilds Mages send one of my Guild Mages a telepathic message!
>>45074520
I typically find he's a good one to blame.
>>45074426
I suppose that's the right term to use. I just really enjoy reading.
>>45073796
Yes, yes, no killing... What about imprisonment in The Demiplane of Thorns?
>>45074467
Is this about not entering my own daughter into a deadly death maze with almost guaranteed death involved? Because if she isn't ready to join her father on a curb stomp war then she sure as hells won't join this death maze.
>>45074471
>>45074491
That's always a good one.
>>45074499
Pyromancers? They tend to be good for getting people moving.
>>45074523
We will, don't worry.
>>45074558
Thank you Lazarus
>>45074520
What matters is this, are YOU okay, Adam?
>>45074499
HEY! It's not my fault that the last Guild never came up with a plan for fighting the last "Dark Lord of Eternal Darkness and Sadness"!
... SHIT!!! I forgot all about dealing with that part during this weeks meeting!
>>45074535
Well, I'm not getting accused of racism, so I can't blame you. How have you...
>Actually looks at her.
...
>>45074554
Please no. The less I have to deal with that place the better.
>>45074471
Heya Mort! That's a great idea.
>>45074499
>Jill shakes her head in disappointment
>>45074523
well.... then I guess it wouldn't be do bad.
>>45074558
what makes you think the current batch of apprentices are ready?
>>45074583
Yeah. I'm fine, just a bit disoriented and questioning my own place in the universe. I suppose next to you is a pretty good place to be.
>>45074583
Hello Diana, doing well?
>>45074554
Didn't we get bared from that plane by divine intervention? You know, after the cheese incident.
>>45074554
why would we imprison them? Do you have any idea of how much I paid on these front seat tickets? I'm not watching them get stuck in some bramble.
>>45074558
Now that's an idea. we incite a small skirmish between the Pyromancers and the Chainsawmancers, Then we have the Redrobes join in. Much more entertaining than some death machine.
>>45074583
Diana, you're for me on this right? I heard some redrobes call you magicless and now I want them all dead.
>Teuivae is Diana's teacher
>>45074584
May we never forget them.
>>45074589
Yes, shame, shame you miscreant.
>>45074471
We should keep at least a few rabid dogs in there, just so they don't catch on to the horrors' illusory nature.
>>45074589
Of course it won't! Just any rumors you've heard or hear about us stealing books from your library because we have none... Or the one about a certain Dark Elf by the name of Dirjin who broke into your tower yesterday evening in an attempt to raid you! ....Because those rumors are completely untrue and totally unfounded!
>>45074573
You're welcome Mortimer. Got any coffee today?
>>45074589
Who said I cared if they were?
>>45074647
I'll get the department of divination to help us observe from a safe distance.
>>45074692
No coffee will be made until i get my recipe back from Pierre.
>>45074647
Exactly! They were heroes of the realm, and deserve to be remembered as such!
... Well except Arngoll Drumanwifebeater... He was just an Asshole!
>>45074585
What? Do I have something in my teeth?
>>45074713
In that case! I have some great tea!
>it smells like... grass, and leaves.
>>45074616
...I am hoping that's a compliment, and will take it as such.
>>45074644
Pretty decen-
>>45074647
...where are they.
>>45074647
Ptttbbbb!
>>45074686
Which tower? Not the witch tower I hope.
>>45074692
Because they're tot's K.D.'s friends for all you know.
>>45074746
Hey Diana!
>>45074739
No thank you. Anyway, I need to get some work done. See you later
>>45074713
He still has it?
>>45074739
Thank you Marus!
>>45074746
Please don't go on a rampage yet, the meeting just started.
>>45074686
You know, you can say the word Drow, we call ourselves Drow for a reason.
>>45074692
Good, good, I'm glad we can have a most productive meeting.
>>45074717
I forgot most of them already.
>>45074759
Says the one always walking around soaking wet.
>>45074746
>Teuivae pulls out 2 tickets
Right in front of us, when they're getting sawed and burned up.
>>45074721
No. Sorry, never mind.
>>45074746
You know for a fact I would never try to say anything stupidly romantic that doesn't make any sense.
>>45074759
Again! Those rumors are completely untrue and utterly unfounded! None of them EVER happened! ...EVER...
Sp don't go looking into to them. Because... You know... It would be a simple waste of time.
>>45074539
Well we have a large library here so you can expand your spell book even more.sorry for missing you
>>45074372
And uhm, if I d-don't survive?
>>45074783
>but it tastes like sex with an angel.
>>45074800
I'm looking into them now.
>>45074785
I have nothing against saying the word "Drow"! After all I deal with SEVERAL Drow Guild members! -mutters- One of which is an utter asshole...
>>45074787
I...
Right.
>Still blinking in confusion as to what just occurred.
>>45074713
Really? I was wondering why there was no coffee. I'll have a talk with him later.
>>45074759
Then she really should get better friends, some of those apprentices are terrible.
>>45074785
It's a rarity when is happens, but a welcomed one.
>>45074801
Ah fantastic! The library in my town only had picture books.
>>45074808
I think that answered it self.
>>45074814
>Get away from my sister!
>>45074832
Dark elf seems unnecessary convoluted and unnecessarily politically correct. You wouldn't walk around calling High Elves 'white elves.'
>>45074855
>Teuivae nods
>>45074814
>looks at the cup in disbelief
What is in this stuff? It's amazing!
>>45074822
Like I said, there's really no need! No rogues broke into your library shortly after The Guild was founded and then, because we had no books on lore, proceeded to then steal nearly 40000 tomes through the use of Bags of Holding! Nuh uh, No such thing EVER happened!
>I'm so boned... DAMN THOSE ROGUES! DAMN THEM TO HELL!
>>45074759
Hello.
>>45074783
No promises, cat-for-brains.
>>45074785
Huh?
>Diana tilts her head, confused a little.
>>45074787
What, a girl can't dream?
On the bright side, all the money we save from the obstacle course can go towards increasing the funding for the Fishing School!
>>45074837
So, uh, what have you been up to?
>>45074898
You don't have to dream when I can help you make it all real. See what I mean? It's involuntary!
>>45074898
The Redrobes are going on to be in a Pyromancer vs. Chainsawmaner vs. Redrobe match, these are the tickets for the front seats of the divination room.
>>45074871
I've yet to ever hear someone call a High Elf, a "White Elf"! That's utterly absurd, and completely stupid! After all, the "White Elves" Live close to the Equator near the Rowlawow Bay!
>>45074855
I'm still not supporting the death maze!
>>45074856
Yeash, that sounds awful.
>>45074895
...............wow you have a horrible bluff skill
>>45074898
How's married life?
>>45074900
Why on Aen would we need a fishing school?
>>45074895
Really?
>>45074898
Heh, well said.
>>45074900
This sounds like great news. Who needs the obstacle course when you can have an endless supply of fish?
>>45074856
You poor neglected child... Feel free to use my library.
Be careful of the book-beasts though.
>>45074871
>Never!
>>45074892
>pic related
>>45074903
Avoiding doing my job, taking care of a child, repeated drafts of a novel. Pretty sordid stuff, honestly.
>>45074946
>looks at the cup again
>shrugs and drinks the rest
Another!
>>45074938
Just as absurd as having to call us Drow 'Dark Elves'
>>45074946
>You son of a bitch
>green text fight
>>45074927
...you're lucky you're so cute...
>>45074936
...Oh. It's not the same just watching someone else do it.
>>45074939
Ask me once I'm actually married.
>>45074942
Exactly! It never happened! No matter HOW much evidence you do or don't find! No sir, never happened!
>>45074939
I'm not bluffing! I'm simply saying that It never happened, and that you should ignore ANY rumors you hear regarding such events.
Apologies for the intrusion, ladies and gentlemen, but I've a few minor announcements to make.
Firstly, I'd like to issue an informal notice on the circumstances of the newly re-opened obstacle course. Please, do not get too attached to the new apprentices, and I should remind you all to avoid giving them supplies and equipment of significant value, monetary or otherwise, before they enter the course. My supply rooms are not endless. Except, of course, for Vault 9, which is.
On other news, we've been issued a formal writ of animadversion by the Guild of Orphanages and Orphans. I'll not bore you with the details, but the damages claimed are substantial. Whilst I have been advised that the orphans crushed in the incident have been grievously overvalued, I get the impression that they do not believe the guild has any legs to stand on.
Lastly, I'd like you all to be aware of my new intern who you will find stationed at the Western supply room station, governing access to Vaults 17 through 23. Given that he is an incorporeal mass of void flesh that developed sentience only last week, he has shown a clear and admirable level of organisational skill and a desire to learn. Whilst he hasn't decided on a formal name quite yet, he has taken to referring to himself as Vlomp, in the third person, which I suppose will do for now. I am certain you will all do your best to provide a warm welcome as he acclimatises to this material plane.
Thank you for your time.
>>45074939
We've had a fishing school for a while now, since a few meetings ago when I declared that there needed to be one! I took the liberty of taking up a janitorial closet near the hydromancers and collecting my owed wages of my own initiative.
>>45075009
You're not telling me I blew 50,000 gold on a ticket because it's 'not the same!'
>>45075012
>begins writing down these notes
wait, why am I even doing this? My apprentice is right there.
>>45075012
Tell them we can supply them with a fresh supply of orphans in return for dropping the class action suit!
>>45075009
Oh......... Uh sorry....
>>45075010
Give us back our shit man.
>>45075012
What? why was it reopened?
>>45075019
Fucking hydromancers!
>>45074974
Right...well sorry about putting your entire department into a corpse shortfall at the same time that you're repairing a country.
>>45075009
And I'm also lucky that you're cute, but let's get back to the meeting.
>>45074900
But we already spent all the money on the obstacle course, we would lose that money if we didn't put the course to use somehow.
>>45074936
I'm going to need my own box seat.
>>45074939
Of course not, didn't you run in last year's death maze?
>>45075068
Marus, I want to once more thank you for helping Tenebrus with those forests. They ended up a bit all over the place, but it's still better than the alternative, have you had a chance to see your new lands yet? I hope the valley we found for you will be to your liking.
>>45075012
We stepped on an orphanage? Really? How long ago was this?
>>45075084
How DARE YOU!!! The "Guild of Mighty an Minor Adventurers" Has stolen nothing from you and your guild, and I take GREAT offense to that to the fact that you would ever THINK such things!
>>45075098
Ehhh. I can't exactly handle too many corpses lately. Bacteria like that is terrible for a child's health, you know.
>>45075116
You'll not be wasting money if you let my Guilds Rogues run the course!
>>45075120
Psst, Guild Master for Mighty Quenchers, me and Flayer Flay made off with some nice artifacts. Thanks for the distraction!
>>45075068
A compelling counter offer, I will keep it in mind.
>>45075116
Some Paladins came to visit. Things... escalated.
>>45075010
If you say so... by the way, do you accept magical girls? I have some who want to go out and see the world, and your guild seems big on the whole epic adventures thing.
>>45075012
Thank you for informing us.
>>45075019
That's the spirit! Reminds me how I got my department.
>>45075152
It's just not the same when it isn't Redrobes that you've been dealing with for months, there's something so...satisfying about it.
>>45075116I am so sorry I disappeared through that btw, I forgot about it on the advent of the new thread
I haven't been there yet, but I should probably make the trip soon. Thank you for asking.
>>45075116
Yes and it was one of the worst experiences of my life!
>>45075120
Faint anger as much as you want, if our things are not returned there will be permanent consequences.
>>45075159
THIEF!
>Wait a second!
>Who here plays Penal Regiment, I swear Gary!Anon is here.
>>45075159
You! You're the reason they call us Drow N#$%^&
>>45075159Ok, I keked at this, especially since I was REALLY hoping you'd show up and say something like this
W-W-What are you talking about!?!
>Looks towards the rest of the meeting hall
I-I swear I have NO idea what he;s talking about!
>Damn that Bastard! I expressly told the Guild yesterday to NOT DO THAT!
>>45075212I play a few one offs but it's kinda meh for me
>>45075159
>Flayer Flay
>10/10
>>45075134
I will definitely keep that in mind. If you have any jobs I can do for the necromancy department, please tell me. I need to keep paying back my debt.
>>45075053
If a pair of redrobes badmouthed me, I wanna take them apart myself! Otherwise what's the point?
>>45075206
See! It wasn't my guild! It was Drow raiding parties come to steal and then burn your stuff!
>>45075206
Pinball wizard, eh?
Those aren't the only balls I'd let you be an expert witch of!
IFYOUKNOWWHATIMDECLARINGSPIDEREGGS
>>45075242
Um...gauze? I don't think we ever have enough gauze, to be honest. That or any embalming oils or powders.
>>45074946
Bo-Book Beasts?!
Oh, I'm very sorry. I almost missed the meeting.
So, no obstacle course for apprentices and stuff?
>>45075212I do as Sgt Malak Ordenius
>>45075178

Here's your new point.

It sounds like I just got one extra seat left, Lazarus. And my apprentice will be in the match, hunting down the ones who bad mouthed her while I point them out from the safety of an abjuration box. Or she can write a 50,000 page essay about why Black is the new Black.
>>45075152
Noted. I'll make sure we keep it open for them to run through.
>>45075165
Can't we have the paladins pay for the damages then? They were clearly the instigating party in this.
>>45075202Don't worry about it.
I hope it end up being to your liking then.

Basically, I'll do whatever Lazarus says, unless Diana says something else.
>>45075392
And you'll find me writing that essay for you. Because I'm not suicidal, nor am I going to risk my neck for you making assumptions.
>>45075375
Very well then, in exchange you'll keep your complaints about the obstacle course to a minimum. Agreed?
>>45075392
Good, let people know that if I find anyone taking my seat then they're dead.

Again, Sorry Clip Clip! But considering what you put on your sign up sheet, this should be nothing to you.

Senseless violence is the standard operating procedure for mages of all kinds.

The Imperial Palace itself is the only place I would suggest seeing. But I do suppose there are the volcanoes further inland as well. I don't see the appeal though.

So... Adventurers in the Guild?

Yo, I'm Lurco, leader of a large group of individuals which currently doesn't have a name for them. We were a cult apparently for a long time but then we switched to a company but then I was put in charge by another me and I don't like the whole company shabang. So now we're just a large group of people. And I'm the leader of them. We work closely with the Mages, Fighters, and Thieves' Guilds.
>>45076021
I knew it.
>>45076066
So, what is it that you do, ma'am?
>>45076041
Tell me more of this.
>>45076066
Then I think we have come to an understanding.
>>45076106
Are you planing on taking her as an apprentice or something? Or do you think you'll need the help of a chronomancer in the future?
>>45076038
Actually that wasn't me. I didn't write it, I just followed the Chronomancer because there was a noise complaint about a raving drow.
>>45076041

But no, I, Nyle's Ransdorm, Slayer of the Virgin Succubi of Rextora (I didn't fuck them, I killed them!), Climber of the Trule Mountains, and Ruiner of the parties of Evil everywhere; am the leader of the Guild of Mighty and Minor Adventurers... Or the Adventurers Guild if you will!
