>>6311935We lost 4 viligance, 8 hope, and gained 2 encroachment. a new location was mentioned (tunnels beneath the transit station). This one is clickable to the "add it" (the game makes things on the fly and this will cause the game for it to consider it a "static character" at least thats what i think, so in theory, it helps the ai know what is consistent and what is filler. Usually you can click on multiple of these. The only ones that are different are when you complete a quest (it forwards it) and sometimes we get quicktime events (which always have (3 choices) one of them being quite silly)( quite fun) so i will let you guys select what should be remembered and when to take quick time events or progress the story. I SHOULD HAVE in my original show what was missed (there was a few clickables) but this game is so open ended, it will not matter (as we can do whatever we want) but it wouldve made it a bit more "stable"So, yes there are clickables after every turn that will add info. Only when we complete a quest and quicktimes does it pass the turn so tell me what to click
heres some help on the clickableslike i said, clicking on them wont forward the story at all but quicktime events and completing quests always give more dialoguethere are some missing in the photo but its to give you an idea
>>6311944OH and clicking on an item (the blue one) will always "own it" (youll put it in your inventory) you can tell me to equip it or whatever. as you can do a few things with it
i still have the game running. i dont know how long i can effectively keep it on so. i dont really have a set up here im using thats efficient
the game has been closed down. i dont know what caused it

No decisions for them. They are just part of something larger, which thinks for them, and as such they are blessed cogs in a machine larger than they could even imagine.

So far both seem to be of minimal risk to American life and property in these trying times. On behalf of all the brave men and women who are responding to this crisis, we once more express the importance to remain calm.’’Such ‘local population’ appears to consist of a diverse array of peoples, with reports and images including everything from creatures akin to elves from works like The Hobbit to reptilian humanoid creatures that some have been calling ‘Mole-Men’ mixed in with a larger population that appears indistinguishable from the various races of humanity. Even the talk of ‘devilish people’ has been confirmed by the U.S. Navy personnel willing to comment on the situation we find ourselves in. Already several locals have encountered these strange ‘’Ozzlings’’ and here is what they have to say;‘’By all indications, We should be asking these people to take us to their leaders’’ an anonymous source within the twin bases commented. ‘’All around us are islands and boats of these medieval magical people and they have stuff we need to survive.

>>6321535> What the FUCK happened to atlantis, specifically?The Lost Moment (a concept I stole from Robert Jackson Bennett's Founder's trilogy) between day and night where magic's restrictions are weaker is a very powerful tool which the Atlanteans were just starting to come to terms with, but it basically allowed them to do more things with magic than normal (think of it as if between 6:00:00 and 6:00:01 everything in your computer had admin permissions). Didn't come up in the quest, but it also only happens in the Whosi lines (which is why they exist in the first place, and why Atlantis follows them).Why does it happen? Who knows. Maybe the universe is a simulation and someone made an off-by-one error. Maybe at sundown the barriers between the plane of magic and the real world grows thinner. Depends on what you want your flavor of magic to be. But the point is the Atlanteans didn't like that they had to jump through this instant-sized hoop to create greater wonders, and tried to make that moment bigger, and started fucking about with time-magic.Then one of two things happened: Either a miscalculation or unexpected interaction between time-magic and this moment that shouldn't exist led to some runaway process that consumed the city, or the Universe's antivirus didn't like being fucked with and reacted violently, deleting the annoying section that was fucking around with it.But it wasn't Gilgamesh, it was just someone else working in their own project. Just some idiot with a Bright Idea that didn't take enough precautions because "It will be fine, you're just exaggerating".[Cont.]
>>6321628> What even is the whole deal with the unseelie?The unseelie are from Irish mythology, and in it they are "evil fairies". Of course, in this quest they are nothing like that. In here they are more of a concept made manifest than an actual creature. My interpretation is that there needs to be Something that holds definitions of certain concepts to, for example, know what a "bird" is so that it can conjure it when someone casts "Avis". Call it God, if you wish, as long as it isn't actively interfering with the world, or Collective Unconscious if you prefer, or something else.Someone fucking about with Gates That Shouldn't Be Opened in the limits of magic somehow peered into this space of pure ideas, and pulled a piece of it out. It was just a test, they didn't know what they were pulling. If you imagine all ideas possible, it isn't difficult to see that most ideas, when extrapolated to their maximum, would end up in death. That's what the Unseelie are, a random section of Ideaspace made manifest, a cut up of parts of different disparate concepts forced into life.They are, of course, not pleased about existing.I took the idea of the Unseelie being indescribable creatures from the Significant Digits HP Fanfic, because White skin. Teeth. Blood. Chittering.Large eyes. Wet. Oily. Gnawed.Sparse flesh. Lumpy joint.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
Also, I finished gathering all posts from Act 5 + Epilogue and the stats are71.148 words, 43 updates, 1.6k words/updateWhich brings the total word count to about 454k words, which is utterly insane. It is about the size of Goblet of Fire and Order of the Phoenix combined, which is crazy to me. That just sounds wrong, but I can't find any issues with the count, and NaNoWriMo challenges people to write 50k words in a month and I had 2+ years, so it isn't unheard of but... Fuck me I didn't realize I was writing that much.No wonder the anon who read it in 4 days fucked his sleep schedule.Between the first post and the Epilogue was 787 days, which amounts to 500-600 words a day. Suddenly I'm not that surprised when people like Brandon Sanderson write 3 tomes a year (No, I am surprised, fucker has done it consistently for decades, he's a machine).I'll post the docs later once I'm done revising them and seeing if I didn't miss anything. Not sure anyone will ever read them, and I'd recommend just downloading the threads themselves if you want to archive them, but it makes for a cleaner read.

Since the arrival of the Eilistraeans, the entire Tenpenny estate has been refurbished, many of its rooms converted to dormitories and facilities all funded by Emitia. The girl spared no expense in providing for your people, ensuring that the building is staffed and adequately supplied, insisting that Sune will provide for them until the children are grown enough to provide for themselves. While you've not acquired the artisanal techniques of your people, there are many skills that you can impart besides fighting - the survival techniques from your ranger training and affinity for dance chief among them.But you've a more immediate concern that demands your attention - impressing upon these children the culture of the Ilythiiri that was lost with their elders. They speak the local surfacer language, are ignorant to their illustrious history, and have no understanding of who they truly are, something that you have been working diligently to remedy as of late. The old gallery, once filled with Tenpenny's vulgar paintings, has been completely redone into a library filled with fiction and realmslore. Rows upon rows of dark wood shelves sitting on white tile, surrounding a common area, the chairs arranged in a semicircle around yourself. In attendance are the children, who sit in anticipation of your lecture, their benefactor Emitia Rouzet, High Sorcerer Lael Lathalas, and his apprentices.What, you wonder, will be the topic of today's lesson?>Today I will tell them the storied history of Menzoberra the Kinless, one of Lolth's most powerful priestesses and the founder of the city Menzoberranzan itself.>It is time for a lesson on Ilythiirra.

Welcome back to Our Brave Boys, a quest that is more about worldbuilding (or loredumping) but also a somewhat light RP setting. You are all young men of 20 years of age and are part of the Nation's Apprenticeship Required for Male Youths, otherwise known as ARMY. The Nation is one of many countries of the Empire, but after decades of suppressing Republican Revolutions, the Nation emerged as the leading faction championing the Monarchy, placing the late Princess of your Nation on the throne as Eternal Empress.The quest essentially runs as a world event where you are all common soldiers who have little control over the progression of the war, but are nonetheless free to write bits of your characters' thoughts and even subtle actions to bring life to your characters.The Nation has a mandatory conscription policy for all young men, who must serve for 5 years after conscription at 20 years of age. Nearly a year and a half has passed since the quest started, although new boys are welcome. You might want to skim through the archive to understand the lore.To get conscripted, please take a look at the instructions in the first thread: https://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/qstarchive/2025/6220569/OOB2: https://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/qstarchive/2025/6258776/The Story Thus FarYou are the junior brothers of Lexion XXI, 41st Artillery Cohort, Battery Green, Section 1. Any additional entries will overflow to Section 2 of Battery Green.Legion XXI spent several seasons training and laboring in Japmi until the Southern Principality reported instability due to Revolutionary riots, prompting the Sovereign Marshal to order Legion XXI to be stationed across the bay from the Southern Principality. While Legion XXI was on standby, the Grand Prince of the South escaped a revolutionary coup, prompting General Reigen Mugen to push forth and establish a foothold before the revolutionaries dig in.
>For the rest of the day you held security for the infantry. Most of the gunfire you heard was from the distance, but hardly did you ever hear it from the same building you were in.

The nearby fishing harbor had been secured and soldiers were already constructing makeshift docks to receive them. The cohorts were all given their sectors of watch and duties in preparation for the arrival of more legions. You spent your days clearing buildings of debris and designating areas for berthing. Your cohort claimed a school classroom where you spent your nights.>One month, command said, as you rotated between your duties of patrol, watch, and whatever camp duties they can throw at you, such as food prep or garbage takeout. You weren't allowed to return to your berthing stations until nightfall, and when you weren't doing any supplementary training with the infantry, you all just... sat around trying to pass the time. To make matters worse, there wasn't enough shower stalls and you all did not like how you smelled for most days.>>6321595>There was a bunch of loose camels trawling around the city, and command figured some of them might be some cows who could produce milk. They sent out any soldier who had experience with handling animals, Henzo was signled out by Lieutenant Shino Nozo for the job.

Memories of Earth (Sonny - Aftermath 1) https://youtu.be/XxIr_gXszgMIn the blue hour, in a field of gently swaying grass, an old man stood, listening quietly to the cicadas screaming for pussy. He smiled at the thought. Insects were very amusing creatures and it was their music which gave voice to heat and the evening. A cool breeze blew and it felt good against his weathered face. The old man was not used to such a peaceful, tranquil atmosphere. For the moment, he felt as if he were... safe? Yes, safe. For the first time in a very, very long time.He closed his eye. He could imagine being there, in his old hometown, walking through the streets and the places he grew up in. Another time, another place, like a memory adrift in a sea of grass and eternity and the sounds of an eternal American summer. But this was all... A fabrication. And actually, so was this entire scene. Zoos, after all, are the built realization of man's favorite illusion: control over nature.The old man's jaw clenched. He sighed a really deep and disappointed sigh out of simultaneous shame and frustration. Tilting his head upwards, he saw the shimmering of the light panels across the vast dome of the sky as it touched the earth. Under his feet, he could feel the subtle rumbling of hidden machines working tirelessly. Through his bones, weather generators blew colder than a moment they did before. None such detail would escape him, nothing ever did.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

>>6324106Lookong forward to it!>>6324005I think this is a valid perspective. That said, I also agree with the principle of >>6323993. Being doomed to lose only attracts a very specific sort of player, but I think there is room for quest-appropriate tragedy. My players find in upsetting when it happens, but I do believe that having a tragic end an option makes even the quests that end happily feel more earned, and tragedies enrich the later successful sequels by context.

The little bits and pieces that make you up may be people and they make believe in things, but as The Machine it's unclear what you believe. Your members exist within Congress and exist within the various Departments of the Executive Branch. Some of you even exist inside the Judicial System. And overall, plenty of you would be content to make thousands of dollars in speaking fees, and looking forward to retiring with a pension at worst and a cushy do-nothing job at Lockheed Martin or some such MIC. The second wave of tax cuts for the wealthy are generous and the interests are almost nothing. It's a great time to invest and become even richer.--There are some problems however. 1. The threat level is Orange, which means that recently there has been some very serious terrorist attacks and the intelligence apparatus is expecting more.Nowadays these kinds of attacks are one or two dissatisfied youths shooting up some kind of intellectual institution and wounding and/or killing a few dozen people. There are also plenty of Al Qaeda attacks attempted, but they don't usually go through. Last month there was an attack on some federal agents in Maine. Comment too long.

4. Some portion of your members are hearing rumors and even glimpse of what might be leaks or data. There are a lot of what resembles the usual conspiracy theories and other nonsense, but the fact that so much is happening and so little information is available to you, despite that you're the upper apparatus of the most powerful nation in the world...Some are using the words "Deep State". Others are pointing to Russian or Chinese spies. The level of rumors about scientific and unexplained matters is rather high, enough that some your number actually believe them.At the very least a good portion of the nation has gone crazy.
GameplayIn 24 hours and for the 24 hours afterward, there will be a vote. That vote could result in advising Congress give permission to The President, to declare Martial Law. It could trigger a civil-war at worst and it could at best result in what was some kind of "Shadow War going more public. It would also draw resources from the Middle East and the rest of the world, and make relations confusing and messy with our allies and neutral parties.The second option is to form a Secret Committee, which would be very difficult to keep from ending up having spies from these covert factions "duking it out" within the nation. A lot of the best of the best, in terms of fighting at least, are ideologs or cut throat-killers, with the latter likely to be scooped up soon by PMCs.A third option would likely involve, Focusing on preserving the economic base and the donors. You might do something else latter, but for now you're washing your hands of Colorado and Illinois.There are other possible options, including that you don't have enough information and need to work something out that is more specific, and slower.
>Intelligence and Discussion PhaseThe rest of the time not spent on the vote and counting the votes, the period leading up to them certainly... Will be spent on obtaining intelligence and discussion. Any of you are free to ask any question. In some amount of time you will be told what you currently know, or what can be found out quickly enough. If you can be completely certain about something, you will be told. If you are told it is 50/50, you will be told. 90/10, you will be told. And if you have no idea, you will be told.You also have the ability to take some kind of action that won't require serious pull from Congress or the President. >A. Improving a CapabilityYou could try and improve any of your Capabilities. This could be by removing unqualified or suspicious subordinates, increasing funding, or recruiting new talent. It could be all of the above. Let's state some of your Capabilities.Most importantly, you have Internal Affairs. This is your ability to make sure you don't have spies within... whatever this group of senators and policy wonks is supposed to be.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
Capability List>Internal AffairsLevel 3, there is a 10% chance that any given recruit could be a mole or spy. >IntelligenceLevel 2, there is a 10% chance to see the secret messages within a Department or State, and a 30% chance of seeing secret messages for a Sub Department or third of a State.It's 50/50 if you can look over one of the above, and mange to get recruits without them being moles or spies later.
Winning Conditions and StakesYou are playing against a previous set of players, and a current set of players. Another set of future players might be playing against you, based on your choices.You have 10 units of Apparatus Body Points. If this number is reduced to 5, the remaining of your number will have fled the government and said government is likely collapsing. At the very least there will be a civil-war or a coup.That means you're dead at worst, but you could be blackmailed or some flavor of powerless, middle class, and unable to ever achieve much of anything ever again.If this happens, [u]all of you lose[/u]. >Every week or other week, there will be a secret vote.In that secret vote, it will be possible for you to switch sides to one of the covert factions. If you do this, you will get a payout and there is a chance they will be strong enough to prolong your life, or even your time in power and high status. There also will be chances to take a bribe and Cash Out. Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
Your name is BrightReef Grover and you are finally a Science Scout!Among the youth of Swallia; public service is considered a great mark on a resume for a future career, and a great use of a young person's time. Before being mated or mature enough to engage in the workforce; it is a method to expend youthful energy towards something useful. But you wouldn't know much about that; you're more interested in the merit badges, the sash, and the cool stuff you get to do.The Scouts are a direct subsidy of InterCon; the governing body of your independent planet. Swallia and its two moons are in an autonomous zone and are free from the predations and exploitations of other powers in space. This is guaranteed by your protector-in-all-but-name state; the Jaxtian led Hegemony. But once again, you don't really know much about that. You're just a kid, you're much more excited about summer vacation on the last day of school. You even get to meet the representative from the Eugenic & Science policy department of the Swall government. Cool!
>>6323599>It was an apology for the past, but also either knowledge or hope for the return. The Jaxtians already had access to the life machine, were genetic experts, and had access to the Swall genome. They could have brought the Swall back with their existing technology if they cared enough to do so. These murals and spaces could make future Jaxtians wonder about the Swall, perhaps enough to remake them. The culture would have been lost, but a new purer Hegemonic Swall could have come to be, though the Artist perhaps hoped for the reincarnation of the originals rather than the New-Swall born of modified gene-seed alone. Swall protect their children fiercly. Do the children also similarly seek to protect their parents?
>>6323599>He somehow knew your race would returnI like the idea of a bit of mysticism, and Wrix’s artistic son was my favorite part of the post-Mask era, where he put wondrous secret Easter Eggs meant to inspire.I’d love for this Swalli to feel the same magical wonder he felt as a child, if only for a moment.
>>6323599>He somehow knew your race would returnThe swall...were always going to return.
>>6323599>It was an apology for the sins of the past

Saturday, May 14, 1985. Chicago.You open your eyes to the sound of rushing feet and whispered voices. It’s still dark, your wife turning over and muttering in her sleep. What’s the time? The digital clock reads 3:46 AM. There’s more voices outside in the corridor. People are running. What’s going on? You get out of bed, taking care not to disturb Linda, and look for your dressing gown. You find it and wrap it around yourself while you look through the window. The city is quiet, only a few cars lazily crawling down the streets, empty of pedestrians. You see that there’s been a light rain, droplets of water still clinging to your window and leaving the city streets glistening.There’s a knock at the door, and as you turn, it opens, and your friend, Albert West, pokes his head through and says: “Mr President. We need you to come with us.”SOMEWHERE ABOVE THE ARCTICA beeping rings out through the cockpit. Three pairs of eyes are staring at the dashboard. Cpt. William Blakely, aircraft commander, pushes a button and the beeping stops. He orders the navigator to check in with command. The navigator pushes some buttons and listens to his headset, then shakes his head. Cpt. Blakely pushes some more buttons, and CAP811 flashes on his screen. He resets the system. CAP811 flashes on the screen again. He looks at his pilot, who nods, slowly. They both unzip a pouch on their vests, and pull out two documents, marked TOP SECRET. They break the red ribbon seal, and read what is written on them. They look at each other’s documents. The contents are identical. There is silence in the cockpit.
>>6316091Yeah also I think this would kill off neoliberalism in the USA since Regan was killed and bush lost the election
>>6316095a huge question is if 9/11 still happens in this timeline since it's unlikely things like the Gulf War still happen
>>6316096I wonder that too
>>6316842another big factor i hadn't thought of yet is the Soviet-Afghan war with America helping what eventually became the Taliban
Thanks to whoever archived the quest by the way, was about to do it myself then noticed it was already done.
