Our Sarsalmat has gotten ill and doesn't have any heirs.
However, he still has plans.
He sent out an expedition to the South to find anything at all that resembles a civilization.
The expedition did find a people known as the Inca.
The expedition wasn't exactly friendly, so they quickly became unwelcome, they did however bring some new crops with them.
Potatoes and Tomatoes.
We plant them in the Empire with great success, they make a great addition to our diet.
As his life fades away, the Sarsalmat has tasked us with the construction of his legacy.
2 great Libraries containing all of our knowledge, in opposite sides of the Empire.
One in Aramith the other in Xenos.
We did manage to build them still in his life-time, so he could die without regrets.
In the process of building these Libraries, we had to drastically improve our road system as well, making them broader and smoother for all the material to be carried across the Empire.
Though after the Sarsalmats death, these new improved roads spread war across the Empire.
The Royal family, not wanting the Imperial throne empty, has brought forth many pretenders to the throne, plunging the Empire into yet another civil war.
We lost all contact to the outside world and this state of war split the Empire into several smaller Kingdoms, all laying claim to the throne.
This period of civil war, which has lasted a dozen centuries , was dubbed the Eternal War.
After 1000 years, the Eternal war came to a conclusion, when Sarigal the Conqueror and his armies, overran all competing Kingdoms.
He moved the capital back to Neperdubitum and introduced many reforms, especially in the field of military.
The War-Bisons we have bred over the centuries, to be as small, fast and agile as Horses have found great use in the late period of the Eternal War, and now Sarigal makes them a mandatory asset in his new Army.
The Empire stands strong and united once more under Sarigal the Conqueror.
What will Sarsalmat Sarigal do in his new office?
>>250134
The Eternal war must have caused a lot of casualties, I propose setting up a program of sorts that promotes having kids and encourages the people to produce more crops and other sorts of food to support the families and their newborn kids across the empire.
Essentially it should boost the population to gain what we lost during the war, and hopefully increasing it even more than that.
Also check on the neighbouring tribes to see what they have been up to after those 1000 years, maybe we could test out our newly reformed armies on them if we feel we need their land to settle our growing population.
Lastly start building monuments in the biggest cities to respect the fallen during the Eternal War, in our capital there should be the biggest monument of them all showcasing the mighty Sarigal the Conquerer uniting the various kingdoms into the empire once again.
This would temporary boost demand for metals which in turn should temporary increase the production of metals.
>>250134
Extend to the east. Sarigal will do as his name bids, and he will conquer.
>>250144
Actually our population is higher than ever before, we're suffering from over population, right now the Empire boasts over 30 million people.
We can hardly sustain our population, the Eternal war has kept population growth in check.
Well hello now dear masked little demons.
This is a tale of gods. Even though none of them is a god.
This is a tale about a word controlled by 3 gentlemen:
Santa, the benevolent one who will never intervene directly.StevenKing, who tends to cause a bit of chaos.
And yours truly. And i'd never cause any kind of general sorrow and destruction, would i?
In any case, my dears, i need a champion. And he or she shall be chosen by you!
And how? Here are the rules:
1- Reply to the correct post
2- First post with a get decides what happens. Gets are 6, 9 and 0
3- You must wait at least 2min before rerolling your own post
4- I will take any gets into consideration, but full retard will be ignored
5- Also, take it easy in memes and fetiches. I'll write lewd tho
6- You also may roll a d100. If you get 66, you can choose an intervention from one of the 3 "gods"
7- Don't fucking spam d100s. You can roll one every 3min while a session is happening
8- If i ask for a dice roll, first one decides. Don't try rolling both d100 and another dice in the same post, btw.
Well, enough rules. King will complain if there's too much order.
Now for our champion, refer to the following pic and vote for one in this thread.
First one to get 3 votes or the one with most votes in 15min is our new champion, so vote wisely.
I don't know who did this one, but it's amazing. If anyone can credit it for me, please do it.
Also, OP pic was done by GBA.

The pic is from ShwigityShwonShwei or S-Purple.
Also, do we have to choose one from the pic, can't we make our own champion?
The peace the world knows now is a lie. Even now, there are forces at work in the shadows, trying to undo that peace using whatever means available to them. Be it forgotten magics, advanced sciences, or overwhelming military power, there is not a day that passes when someone or something is plotting the downfall of the world and the suffering of its inhabitants.
But for every villain that rises, there is a champion of justice and love to stop them. Talented mystical prodigies, action scientists who are not afraid to step into the line of fire, brave men and women in the latest military gear; they stand and fight the evils of the world and succeed where others fail, sometimes at the cost of their lives.
But our champions are still mortal, who bleed and make mistakes like anyone else. Sometimes, these mistakes are costly and grant their adversaries an impossible, tipping the balance and making a major problem of things.
And that's where you come in. The final trump card and ace-in-the-hole for the good guys when the designated heroes fuck-up and the bad guys get ahead. The ones who go in and pull victory out of the stomach of defeat.
The Fixers.
It's another wonderfully bright day at Xavier Crucible. The sun is out, its warmth caressing your skin. Birds sing to the sway of the cool breeze, faint but there in the background. And the ground feels warm against your back, prickly blades of grass tickling your skin through your clothes.
You stare at the vast midday sky, the sparse clouds forming all manners of funny shapes and forms for you to laugh at, and for a moment you consider napping right there and then despite the stares and the laughs and giggles directed at you.
A head of white hair blots out your view, his fingers snapping in front of your face.
“Dude, you awake?” he asks, holding out three fingers. “How many fingers am I holding up?”
“How many I’ll stick up your ass if you don’t move.” you retort, scowling. The intruder flips you off and plops down beside you.
"Where's the grease monkey and the musclehead?" you sit up, squinting under the light.
"I dunno; one said something about finishing up a personal project of his and that he'd be late, and the other said he had some business with his club."
You tilt your head. "Which one was it again?"
He thinks for a minute. "I think it was the literary club. No, wait, it's the cooking club. I think."
"You think?" you raise a brow at him.
"Hey, I don't spend my free time bugging everyone I know every few minutes." he leans back and basks under the sun. "Figure it out yourself."
>Head to the grease-monkey's workshop.
>Find the musclehead and see what he's doing.
>Screw both, stay here and chill.
>Screw both, stay here and chill.
"I'd rather stay here, in all honesty. I mean, we're out in the open, and if they need to find us, they'll have no trouble finding us out here. Plus, the atmosphere is great here."

Doing this myself since the original OP doesn't seem to be around and somebody else requested it.
Rules are pretty standard:
>Post a picture of a creature with a mutation edited in. Give a description.
>Don't add complicated features, progress slowly.
>Be creative.
>Don't modify something twice in a row, give other people a chance to contribute.
>Be realistic
>Have fun!
Posting the ends of lines/near ends. Starting with the Sphinctermaws.
>#1: Gliding Sphinctermaw
An animal that isn't picky about what it eats. They have compound eyes on the ends of flexible stalks used as fins. They can quickly open and close their rear tentacles to make quick getaways from predators. As they do so, they release a chemical to sting the eyes of predators, like pepperspray.
The orange color supposedly fades under depths of 5 meters (slightly more than 15 feet)
>#2. Crawling Sphinctermaw
These bottom feeders scuttle the sea floor, catching food particles on the bristles which tip their tentacles.
>#3. Craspaw
They are similar to the above creature. Having finger-like projections of their tentacles, they can grab larger bits of food.
Blue color is supposedly a camouflage.
>#4. Carnivorous Sphinctermaw
These predators use their clawed tentacles to rip the flesh of their prey into nice bite-sized chunks. While more aggressive, they are smaller, thus lower in the food chain that what will be listed in the next post.
Muted color is supposedly harder to see.
Now on the various species of Biggus Dickus. Listed top to bottom.
>Dark Biggus Dickus
The Dark Biggus Dickus is currently the largest animal on Scrotus-4. From their sizearound 8 or 9 inches long on average. :^), an adult specimen is rarely bothered by predators.
Larvae and juveniles however are heavily preyed upon. Their color does help with this. They hide in the mud of the sea floor whenever they can smell a predator nearby.
Unless the other three species, the DBD lacks eyes, and instead has numerous scent receptors around its head.
>Lumped Biggus Dickus
This jawless carnivore hunts by spitting up a corrosive fluid to partially digest prey. Then it swallows everything whole with its big mouth. They have two secondary pipes leading from their mouth to the rear of their stomach for pumping water through in order to flush out indigestible matter.
The thin strip of exoskeletal plate provides a surface for their muscles to anchor to.
>Armored Biggus Dickus
Like their Lumped cousins, these Biggus Dickus too spit out a corrosive digestive fluid. Their increase in exoskeletal plating gives a sturdy paddle for swimming. They have the habit of attacking prey from the front if possible, mostly to avoid the Gliding Sphinctermaw's spray.
>Unnamed Biggus Dickus
This species of Dickus are omnivores. They've dropped most of their predatory behavior and only eat meat if the opportunity presents itself. To aid in eating plant matter, they swallow small stones to grind up food in a small fore-stomach.
And this thing. It doesn't have a name. We don't know what it eats. It has a big mouth, a flappy tail, and some sort of light-sensitive ring around its body.
And to fishing things off, the plants.
Just describing the species at the ends of their respective lineages. To to bottom.
>Nameless Plant
Walks on branch-like legs on seafloor.
>Walking Seaclover
Walks on leaves in shallow seawaters and tide pools.
>Rooted Seaclover
Stationary plant. Other rooted seaclovers grow from the roots of older plants, plus they fertilize each other to produce seeds.
>Oculus Herba
This plant has a pattern that mimics the appearance of an eye. They will at times stack within each other to mimic Dickuses.
>Unnamed thing with the huge root
Grows on shorelines. Most likely in areas that are submerged in high tide.
>Buboles
Simple round plant with lumps on it.
First three votes for our race, and first three votes for our place. To clarify before we get started, whatever we are, we'll be thrown into a bronze age world, not dissimilar to the Mediterranean.

>QM Question
What inspired you to make the quest you did? Did you ever give it any particular thought, or did you just go with what felt natural?
>Player Question
What made you participate in your favorite quest? How does a quest catch your interest and get you to give it a shot?
>>248279
>QM Question
The idea just sort of clicked with me one day and, unlike my other ideas, it clicked so well that I couldn't sit on it for longer than a day and I just decided to spontaneously run it! As my first quest, it was a bit of a rocky ride, but I'm honestly happy that I decided to do it and don't regret it at all.
>>248279
>Player Question
I was bored, and had nothing to do. Also it's been quite a while since I played tabletop.
So I thought what I always think when I see a quest. "Can I play/work/be creative with this?" "Can I empathize with the main character?"
There are other requirements, but these are usually the main thing.
Anyone have the want to run a dark eldar Kabal quest?
Your name is Ashy Jenkum, and you are on a quest to catch Rare Pepes. Scattered across the world, these unusual amphibians are highly prized for a variety of reasons, and it is the dream of every child to catch them all. However, in your excitement, you’ve completely lost your direction and realize you had no real preparations going into this quest. What do you want to do?
[[In general, combat, abilities, etc will be handled using a 1d20 roll. After a certain amount of time/number of responses, the most popular decision will be taken, as well as the highest roll. Roll posts with dubs, trips, etc will be given double, triple, etc weight.]]
This road has been entirely silent, and the sand is beginning to irritate your eyes. However, you start to make out someone walking down the road towards you.
You quickly check your inventory in case you need to defend yourself; you have no weapons, only a few chicken tendies, a favorite hat of yours, and some money.
Talk, fight, or flight?
>>248123
Talk to her, she seems well traveled. Maybe she knows where some Rare Pepes hide?
[[Do I have to roll for this?]]
>>249841
+1, a guide would help.
So, some of you may remember me as the fuck of a Fate/QM who dropped off the face of the Earth a year and a half ago. I won't bore you with the sob story of real life and shit, but I will say that life's since gotten more stable. I remembered that I used to do this shit, and I figured "Hey, let's see if people are still interested in doing Nasuverse stuff".
Hence this.
What sort of thing in Nasuverse doesn't really matter to me. If you want to do a Kara no Kyoukai-style thing, a Grail War, Clocktower 2016, some Grand Order shittery, whatever, I'm up to run it. So, let's kick this thing off. What are we going to be doing here?
[] Fate/Something (Grail Wars and Grand Orders both fall under here)
[] Something without fucking Servants (General Nasuverse, Clocktower, KnK, etc)

Something set in arthur's britain or a grail war
>>247058
>[x] Something without fucking Servants (General Nasuverse, Clocktower, KnK, etc)
I'll be leaving this choice open for a little while longer since it's an important one, as a heads-up.
First three votes for a race and we can get started.

With the expansion of the Village underway, the men needed more protection from the cold to be able to keep working.
To meet this demand, tailors began developing more covering clothing such as pants and experimented with ways to maximize warmth while minimizing weight.
They began sewing a thin fur in between 2 layers of cloth, while it wasn’t the warmest clothing it was enough and didn’t restrict mobility very much. This sped up expansion drastically.
However, larger buildings were unable to be completed because of wood not being strong enough to support the weight.
The Chieftain was unfazed by this delay and suggested that we use stone as the foundation for the buildings. His reasoning was that if we used large stones as the main body of the foundation but in between applied a hardening ‘mud’ of some sort.
However the Chieftain does not know what it would be made of, clay could be possible but it’s not really strong enough to be a proper building material.
What will the Chieftain do to solve this problem?
Carve grooves in the stone, so they lock together.Lego
Rape all the women.
Use cattle poop as rudimentary cement.

You are a kid. You're parents are not at home even though its night. Taking advantage of this, you were binging on video games all the way up to midnight when all of a sudden, the lights go off. You are now in absolute darkness
You have three choices:
1) Scream
2) Grope around the house to try to find a flashlight
3) Go to sleep
What will you choose?
Lay down on the ground and contemplate the meaning of life and realize that it is as empty as the darkness. Except our fate.

You are Bob, a derpy little man Who is equipped with a backpack containing seemingly everything, and despite the terrible things that happen to you, you tend to end up alive through it all. As a group you will controll bob. I will put Bob into a situation, as a group three of you (or more) must agree that he should do the same thing or roll 2d6 and see who gets the highest number (I will decide for ties). Bob does try to survive so everything you do must not purposefully harm Bob. This is an ongoing story.
(Backstory Bob lives in a crappy apartment with his best friend/pet, Octa the octapuss, she only has 7 legs, Bob has a crush on a witch named Raven, Bob is an idiot)
So, starting situation: You are watching tv in your apartment and hear news of an alien invasion, you look out the window and see a ship WHIZ by. What does Bob do?

Punch own face.
