Welcome to Banished Quest!
You take the role of a young mage labeled a criminal by his people and cast out into the wider world. In the last thread you rolled up on that nigga Cthulhu and popped a cap in his ass.
It is currently the 30th of Svarthi, in the year 936 NH.

Notes:
Using names or trips in this quest is heavily discouraged. While it is impossible for me to prevent you from doing so, I ask that you not. I will also not count any votes made while using names or trips.
Your son is going to be okay, and this thought fills you with immense relief. Then you recall that someone hurt your son, and your hands start to shake. The anger builds as you push yourself to your feet and you're filled with a manic sort of energy. This world is going to burn, and you're going to be the one that sets it alight. The spirit, its disciples, its minions, its servants; you'll see every last one of them turned to ash and forgotten before you forgive the harm they've caused.
Casting about the swamp you find yourself in, you focus in on the enormous living temple resting across the marsh. It stretches skyward, vanishing into the colorful mist which hangs heavy in the air of this place. If the spirit has a place of power, this is it. With Zahak following closely behind you stride towards the yawning archway, fire dancing at your fingertips and the pools of stagnant water parting to allow your passage.
As you ascend the stairs you can finally see something of the interior. The walls on either side have been shaped from coral into mesmerizing, multicolored patterns. They seem to pulse and writhe as you enter, coming alive with motion. Perhaps they recognize your presence as foreign, or perhaps they're merely responding to some new stimuli. The sight of the walls around you reaching towards you, spreading their twitching tendrils in excitement, is a disturbing one nonetheless.
Zahak is startled, and a jet of flame washes over the wall on your right. The thick slime which coats the walls seems to insulate the coral from the heat of the flame, but a strange shiver runs through the entire structure. As you continue further towards what you think is a throne room, the coral on your right begins to untwist itself. An enormous figure is disgorged, clad in thick carapace armor and wielding a stained copper sword nearly as long as you are tall. He stumbles from the wall to block your path, sword crunching into the floor as he lets it fall.
(1/2)
The blade of your saber hums softly in the silence that follows. Behind you, you can hear the soft clatter of chitin against the coral floor, and Zahak's thoughts inform you that the spirit's minions have blocked off the exit. Perhaps if you were a lesser man you would be afraid. Perhaps if this spirit had not harmed your son, you would be tempted to retreat. Instead you can feel your face split into a manic grin, hidden behind the featureless mask of your helm. This will be fun.

Can't we cast poison through our sword?

>>Sic Zahak on the disciple while you handle the minons.
Why are we using a sword instead of the trident?

We get a bonus from using the sword with this armor

>>46842861
Sword is better against armored opponents, especially in Warlock Armor.

Yup, it's just Weapons Channeling. So instead of being 1 vys it would cost 2.

We should only do that when it's absolutely necessary
>>46843165
>>46843212
>>46843165
>>46843212
Nah. That's just overkill. We can kill him easily with other methods, and we won't deplete our husk at all/damage our gun.
>>46843414
It was a joke. I'm not seriously saying we should cast from our husk in any situation that doesn't absolutely require it.

did we ever build that shrine or did this crab fuck show up before we could?
ROOOOOOOOOOOOLL ME 3d10+18 (+6 from Heavy Warlock Armor, +6 from Hiacian Sabre, +6 from Master Rank Fire Vatis) vs DC 46 (Base 20, +4 from Expert Fire Vatis, +6 from Master Metal Vatis, +[16] (the bonus is doubled) from Crabshell Plate)
Think I got all the bonuses, pretty sure.
Rolled 1, 7, 2 + 18 = 28 (3d10 + 18)

Spend 2 for a Regular Failure? Spend 9 for a Regular Success? You're incapable of a Great Success.
As a reminder, you're at 52/[55] vys.
>>46843704
This has to do more with the enchantments placed on the armor than the armor itself. Surya's Vice doesn't ignore metal magic or physical reinforcement, but if some mooks are wearing steel armor it will blow right through them.
>>46843663
Holly shit. That has to be his First disciple.
>>46843704
This is true, it feels like he didn't take it into consideration.

Last time we used it on a metal vatis you halved his armor
>>46843704

i cant even remember
>>46843728
>>46843762
Stop trying to jew us Soma.
>>46843729
Not necessarily, remember, this spirit is supposed to be strong as hell and old as fuck, he might just have some buff as hell disciples
Soma your system is too bulky even for you!
>>46843789
Possible.
But if he were that strong he wouldn't be having that much trouble with Mahanna.
>>46843795
Nah Soma is just shit at remembering details.
Remember the cloak lads. We don't have to let Ricky out. Just channel some vys in it, and it'll suck in any hostile magic like a magical shamwow
Actually I forgot to incorporate the cost of Surya's Vice, so y'all were at 50/[55] (2 vys cost).
>>46843762
That's true, actually. I'd forgotten that. So he'll get a +3 from being a Metal Vatis rather than a +6. That makes the DC 43, which means you already have a Regular Failure.
You're still incapable of making it a Great Success, but now you only have to spend 4 instead of 9 for the regular success.
>>46843803
Anon, Mahana was hopping around waiting for chances to plinkity plonk against the water spirit. After rereading the fight I think the spirit was just toying with Maha to a certain degree.
>>46843803
Mahana had only just barely gotten a stalemate before we interfered.
That doesn't prove anything on it's own, but I'd rather we kept an eye out for an even buffer disciple, just in case.
>>46843831
How bad would it freak out the spirit if we let Ricky out to fuck shit up?
>>46843847
>Ricky in the spirit's realm
That would be a full scale category 5 pants-shitting moment.
Anyway, so you'll be at 46/[55] after it's all said and done.
>Meta jewing
>>46843894
Alright then, if things go sideways we introduce Ricky
>>46843894
>>46843847
Could also probably hurt Mahanna too. Or destroy some of the DE he's gonna want to absorb from this cunt after we kill him.
>>46843831
>That's true, actually. I'd forgotten that. So he'll get a +3 from being a Metal Vatis rather than a +6. That makes the DC 43, which means you already have a Regular Failure.
Shouldn't the bonus from the armor also be reduce as well as consequence?
>>46843913
If things go sideways we just shoot him again.
We could reasonably fire off another 3 of those before we need to stop husk casting.
>>46843938
No. It just ignores the Metal effect, not the enchantments buffing the disciple.
>>46843894
Wait if we were to dump the corrupt vys in the spirit's realm wouldn't it create an army of corrupt monstrosities for the water spirit to deal with?
>>46844145
waht
>>46844145
Again, that'd hamper Mahana's ability to absorb its realm. Might even poison him or make him unable to. We're more than capable of taking down a small army and some two bit vatis who sold out to become disciples.
>>46844145
It would also cause a second Fall of Hiacia
so let's call it plan C.
Plan B is Ricky.
>>46844145
Who knows~ what it could do, Anon?
>>46844145
Yeah eventually, but I don't think the cat will appreciate contaminating his new territories.
>>46844177
>It would also cause a second Fall of Hiacia
No that's trying to become a god.
>>46844145
u r dum
I can't wait to enjoy all three updates we get tonight
>>46844198
I suggest so because I think we should make it our own like the lich lady in the basement.
>>46844177
That was caused by creating a being that literally produced Delerium and corrupted everything it touched with it.
>>46844192
I'm ask this because every time corrupt vys gets into a spirit realm a corrupt army that goes around wrecking shit seems to form.
>>46844223
>three
Dreaming aren't we anon?
>>46844238
That has literally never happened before
>>46844201
According to Mahana a lot of ancient spirits died trying to stop the spread of "The Corruption" during the Fall of Hiacia.
>>46844227
Delerium produces more of itself. It infects vys sources and converts it delerium.
REMEMBER TO BLOCK VYS BASED ATTACKS BY INVERTING THE CLOAK. We could have nullified profectus' hyper beam with like 2 vys. Keep that in mind.
>>46844226
Dude. Chryssa touched Delerium ONCE and it damn near killed her. It's just as toxic to mortals.
>>46844238
You're retarded. That's not how it works.

Sorry, what does the cloak do? I couldn't quite hear you.
>>46844361
I think we can use it to fuck humies more efficiently
>>46844361
Our cloaks inside can absorb vys based spells when it has vys channeling into it, keep it in mind for future use.
>>46844391
WAIT REALLY? FUCK. WHY HASN'T ANYONE ELSE TOLD ME THIS?
does absorbing a spell hurt/annoy the cloak/ricky?
30 more minutes until next post.
>>46844531
only if it gets something messy
The flames playing along your fingertips vanish as instead you begin to draw vys into your palm. This spirit's realm is particularly rich in the degraded essence of divinity, as you expected, and before long there's arcs of electricity dancing between your fingers. The fool makes no attempts to move, or even attack you. He just stands there, as though waiting for your attack. His arrogance will be the death of him.
Your thoughts intertwine with your son's, his emotions spilling over into your own. He's eager, hungry for bloodshed and impatient to punish the creature that destroyed his wing. {Zahak, I think you deserve a bit of a snack. Why don't you try the crab while I handle this brute.}
{Do I finally get to burn things, Papa?} He ask innocently. {I tried to burn the big lobster thing but it didn't work and I was sad.}
{Yes Zahak, you finally get to burn things.} Your hand thrust forward in the same moment that Zahak propels himself down the hallway, pouncing upon the spirit's minions. Lightning shoots from your palm, crawling up the walls and incinerating vast swathes of the coral which this palace is formed from. The entire building seems to grown under the weight of your assault against the armored figure, acrid smoke rising to occlude your view.
>Vys Pool: (50/[55])
(1/2)
>>46844531
Are you retarded?
After several seconds, you cut the flow of vys. For a moment you're allowed to enjoy what you think is your victory, and then an enormous copper sword comes sailing towards you from within the wreckage of the hallway. You have to channel vys just to avoid getting bisected by the blade, which crashes into the wall hard enough to cleave through into the next room.
The armor-clad figure, a knight in crab shell, strides out of the smoke apparently unharmed. Panicked, you thrust your palm forward again and send another bolt sailing through the air. It strikes the man in the shoulder, knocking him far enough off balance that his backswing whistles past you and instead slams into the opposite wall. You're not sure what went wrong, how could he have survived that attack?
>Vys Pool: (46/[55])
>Combat Initiated!
>Enemies Remaining: 1x Crabby Knight, 5x Spirit Minions (1x Injured)
>Allies Remaining: Zahak
>Status: Unharmed
Suddenly you're on the defensive, forced back by the disciple's titanic blade. You're not even sure if the edge is sharp, he's using it more like a club than a proper sword. You try to stave him off with a jet of flame, but it just rolls across his breastplate harmlessly. You need to find some way to turn the tables, because there isn't much more space between you and Zahak, who seems to be busy slaughtering his way through the spirit's minions.

>>His armor looks organic, maybe you can rot it away? (3 vys)
>>46844575
>His armor looks organic, maybe you can rot it away? (3 vys)

>His armor looks organic, maybe you can rot it away? (3 vys)
>This seems like the perfect time to poison the bastard. (2 Vys)
fuckin' hell this guy is tough. Probably going to survive until we exhaust whatever source of power he uses to defend himself with.
>>46844575
We should do this rot by casting from the husk. That will guarantee that we can destroy this armor even if it is otherwise protected from magical attack. It will additionally likely intimidate the disciple as well.
>>46844673
Don't we need to meditate to be able to see the threads?
>>46844648
but what does it actually do??
>>46844575
>>His armor looks organic, maybe you can rot it away? (3 vys)
if not then we try paralysis

Thirding husk casting
I find it funny that people intend on using Water against a water spirit's disciple.
It's like everyone forgot what happened last time.
I hate the kind of enemies that're basically
Mana = Health
Impossible to know how effective your attacks are
Voting against Husk Casting
>>46844762
>>46844722
>>46844713
Fuck no. He ain't worth that shit yet. Just because we didn't one shot him doesn't mean we immediately resort to Husk casting.
>>46844768

>>46844768
fuck fenrir
So it seems like rotting is the pretty clear victor. I also see some votes for trying to cast Water magic using the Husk.
>Employ the husk to enhance the power of your spell.
>Cast the spell normally.
He probably was able to use the conductive properties of Water to channel the electricity away from him and discharge it across the realm.
>>46844768
You described our character.
No husk casting.

>>46844575
>>46844699
I vote to disassemble. I also think we should tell zahak to focus on defending us while we tear the enchantment apart. It will also pull him back from the fight, since we don't know how much energy would be released by the destruction of the enchantment.
>>46844806
>>Cast the spell normally.

Faggot alert
>>46845129
Hey Soma, now that we've damaged this guy's armor significantly, would it be easier to disenchant it than before? Like, the enchantments are less stable and more visible?
If any of the enchantments already on it were destroyed, did they release their energy and explode?

Soma confirmed that we can learn a martial art form based on metal magic by consulting our memories from Metal Codex.
>>46845459
If we get to a point where we can vote on it I'll back doing this.
>>46845459
Lol k
>>46845459
If there's a vote i'll pick it
>>46845459
I would vote for it if it came up
>>46845493
Thats actually true. A dhatu based martial arts.
I do say we get a bit better at the ones we do know.
increase 1 in Veteran Rank
Marsala Ve: Veteran Rank (+6 to Spear and Hand to Hand combat. +4 to Long Swords and Daggers, +2 to Bows and Short Swords) (3/4 insights)
Increase 2 in Trainee Rank in Rhynian Martial Training
Rhynian Martial Training: Trainee Rank (+1 to Short Swords and Blocking.) (0/1 insight)
Marsala ve would help with trident fighting. And trident fighting is our go to weapon if we fight on top of Zahak.
The training can be turned into a meditation that can strengthen our body. So I would advise to do that. Would give us a small rise in strength.
I wonder if we could use water magic to accelerate our baby momma's pregnancy.

An idea strikes you, what if you were to simply rot away his armor? It certainly appears organic, though you would surely think that it's reinforced against such direct attacks. In your experience reinforced artifacts are incredibly hard to wear away. On the other hand, what do you really lose by trying?
Channeling vys, you allow your will to begin eating away at the carapace shell that forms his armor. You're shocked by how easily it begins to rot and degrade, you're able to eat away great chunks of his armor before he even realizes what you're doing. Panicked, the disciple begins to channel his own vys and your progress is slowed. Your concentration is interrupted by an overhand swing, sloppily executed and easily avoided. It smashes into the floor, sending shards of coral shooting upwards.
Before you can retalliate, one of the water spirits crustaceous underlings flies past you, the carapace around its chest shattered entirely. Swinging his sword sharply upwards, the disciple manages to bat the dead minion away from himself. However, he also opens himself up for attack. You lurch forward, sabre lashing out and scoring a deep gash in his armor. You see black blood leaking from the wound, but don't think you managed to do any real harm. You have to leap to one side to evade the meteoric descent of his blade, but you score another slash against his thigh which seems to strike flesh.
>Allied Turn!
>Enemies Remaining: 1x Crabby Knight (Injured), 1x Spirit Minions (Disabled)
>Allies Remaining: Zahak (Injured)
>Status: Unharmed
(1/2)
The disciple beats a retreat, so you redouble your efforts to erode his armor. He fights you for every inch you manage to erode, the armor beginning to heal should you withdraw your attention even for a moment. It's evident that he's a skilled Water Vatis, but clearly not as skilled as you are. The fact your armor amplifies the effect of the vys you channel doesn't hurt either. By the time you finally cut the flow of vys, you've eaten holes into the carapace which reveal his disgustingly pale, half-rotten flesh lying beneath. You suppose it really is a person hidden underneath the armor.
>Vys Pool: (43/[55])
A pulse of vys resonates from the disciple, Nature magic. You don't feel him probing your thoughts nor do you see any immediate effects of the spell. Part of you worries he might be calling for reinforcements, but regardless you've put him on the defense. Now is your chance to press the attack.
>ZAP MOTHAFUCKA, maybe now that you've weakened his armor lightning will be more effective.
>With his armor so drastically worn away, your sabre should be able to cut right through the bastard.
>Now that you've weakened him, go for the killing blow. A sword through the chest ought to do the trick.
>Bathe the bastard in flame, maybe that will teach him to mess with his betters.
>Write-in
>>46845890
Nature magic might mean that he's fucking with the walls of this place since they seemed to be alive to begin with.
>>46845890
can't we rot his flesh/eyes/organs/whatever we usually do now that he's less armored?
>>46845890
>Illusion ourselves preparing for a lightning strike, but invisibly strike as hard as we can with the sabre
>>46845890
Slam earth spikes into his fucking head, he clearly has protection against fire magic, and stone isnt fire
>>46845890
Isn't our blade sharp as fuck if we channel through it?
Can that stack with a posion channel?
>>46845890
>Napalm him. Use combination elements water and fire.
>>46845890
>>ZAP MOTHAFUCKA, maybe now that you've weakened his armor lightning will be more effective.
Bam broken armor means shit deference
>>46845890
Trident the fucker. We've got an open shot, and we've never seen anything live after taking even a scratch from it.
>>46845941
That was because of the armor.
>>46845937
>>46845890
This works
>>46845890
>Weapon Channeling+Zap

>>46845890

>>46845890
Stone him! A stone spike through the chest isn't fun no matter how fishy you are.
>>46845968
The armor is still there anon
>>46845937
>>46845890
Would be a cool way to finish him.
>46845937
>46845890
in support for the feint, but also add poison or paralysis vys to the blade
>>46845890
Channel something through our weapon and stab him. I don't care if it's poison, fire or whatever
>>46846000
Nigga. Double Chevron.
>>46845982
The enchantments protecting him aren't.

>>46846029

>>46845890
>>46845937
I agree with this, but think we should not expect him to fall for it completely, since we are aware he is a nature mage.
>>46845982
there are gaps
>you've eaten holes into the carapace which reveal his disgustingly pale, half-rotten flesh lying beneath. You suppose it really is a person hidden underneath the armor.
>>46845890
>>ZAP MOTHAFUCKA, maybe now that you've weakened his armor lightning will be more effective.
Our son is hurt we need to wrap this up. We heal our son then meditate in the throne room and get back to full vys.
Then it should be smooth sailing on destroying the water spirit. The more we do the less mahana can say that he didn't get this win almost entirely from us.Mik would totally take 100% credit here
>>46845890
>Now that you've weakened him, go for the killing blow. A sword through the chest ought to do the trick.
infuse the blade with poison and paralysis
>>46846040
>One who Can barely fight the rot
>>46846040
If we destroy his brain he can't cast spells
>>46845890
Paralyze him so he can't fucking heal himself or call for reinforcements right away, first
>>46846040
It isn't a simple physical attack. It's physical attack with a spell channeled in it.
>>46845937
Lets play it smart.
>>46845937
This sounds good. We don't ever make use invisibility enough during combat.
I just hope he doesn't figure our shit out immediately with his nature magic.
>>46846040
You can't heal if you don't have a head. Piercing someone's heart also fucks them up so bad that they would have to focus everything on healing, which would make finishing the fight trivially easy.
>>46846058
Paralysis does not stop one from healing.
>>46846073
That's the beauty of it. Since he thinks we're channeling Lighting, he'll fortify up, stand his ground. Then we hit him like a truck.
>>46845890
Channel napalm through the sword and stab that nigga
We should really learn Sleep.

So, since >>46845937 is basically just feint+killing blow, I'll just tack onto it that you'll channel paralysis through the blade when you go in for the kill.
>>46846150

>>46846151
Why are we channeling paralysis? You people are retarded. We could be burning him from the inside but you chose the effect that any vatis worth a damn can remove
>>46846150
>>46846163
We have better shit we need to learn.
Wait didn't building a shrine win at the end of last thread?
>>46846211
You say that but what happens when some asshole hits us with pain+hallucinate and than fucks us up will we scream and fight ghost dicks
>>46846235
Already been addressed. We're going to kill these guys then build it.
>>46846204
Because the players are retarded. Seriously they don't realize Paralyze is not good for combat.
>>46846235
Got attacked before we could.
ROOOOOOOOOOOLL 3d10+22 (+4 from Veteran of Marsala Ve, +6 from Heavy Warlock Armor, +6 from Hiacian Sabre, +6 from Master Fire Vatis) vs DC 36 (Base 20, +4 from Crabshell Plate, +6 from Master Metal Vatis, +6 from Titan's Blade)EZPZ
>>46846204
oh yeah burning an expert fire vatis/GM water vatis is going to end extremely well.
>>46846151
aren't a majority of those for poison?
Hey guys didn't we vote to build a shrine?
