Quoted By:
You are Ben Parker, super-powered criminal and thief extraordinaire. After being bitten by a radioactive spider, you underwent a miraculous change, and adopted the identity of "The Huntsman"! But it's not all bad! Your clone brother, Abel Parker, works to protect the city, and potentially help clean up some of your messes. <span class="mu-i">He</span> goes by the name of "Spider-Man"!

https://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/qstarchive.html?tags=Max%20Spider%20Quest Last time: Khonshu's gift to Cindy awakens and identifies itself as a vengeful spirit of Khonshu named Mercy. Due to her alien nature when she was alive, Mercy is able to freely manipulate her cloth body to suit Cindy's needs, making her the strongest costume Cindy's ever had the privilege of wearing!
But can she save Cindy from the treacherous members of the Monster Council? Who else can Cindy trust down here? Will Cindy be able to keep her head long enough to settle this "Slayer business", or will she lose it to one of the monsters hoping to end the prophecy?
Find out more in the latest issue of…<span class="mu-s"><span class="mu-r">MAXIMUM SPIDER QUEST!</span></span>
Rules:
Most dice rolls will be 1d100. Modifiers will be added depending on the situation or on the alien being used(Usually +10 or -10). Crit successes and crit fails apply. Crit fails can be overridden by crit successes, but crit failures cannot override crit successes.
How to Roll:
To roll dice, type “dice+1d100” in the options field without the quotations. To roll dice with positive modifiers, type “dice+1d100+modifier number” in the options field without quotations, and with an actual modifier number. To roll dice with negative modifiers, type “dice+1d100+-modifier number” in the options field without quotations, and with an actual modifier number.

>>6207946 We exchanged glances with Mercy? Did she pop out as a cloth head? Is anyone freaking out about the fact that something with way too many teeth is growing next to us?
Maybe they’re all looking away and we can still surprise them all later.
>”Fiiiine. I’ve, uh, never taken a friend to visit my family before, and now I have a grandmother living down here. Would visiting her down here be once-in-a-lifetime enough for you to be satisfied?” Basically the first vote, but with more awkwardness and banter. We live with Ben, the latter is unavoidable.

>>6208050 It’s really that I want to give Ben a heart attack later when he learns the “suit” is actually an alien. Punchlines are all about delivery.
Is… is the joke that Khonshu heard Ben was planning on a suit and figured he could beat Ben to the punch? He could have picked a different blessing, but when given the option of one-upping Ben at the same time…
>Cover blown >”Oh god, please don’t tell Huntsman I called him my guardian. He’s already joked about being my ‘real one’ since I met him first and he will NEVER let me live it down if he hears about it.” But retcons are cheap in the comicverse so that’s smarter.

If James has any concerns about how Huntsman would react to him being a clone, tell him both of us have experience with various clone types. One of them is a man-sized chicken scientist. We can set up a support group for him later.

I can’t see any reason not to do any of these beyond general worries we’re tipping our hand too far. Varnae may not know the council is still alive since we escaped with them in the portal. We’ll want to minimize Garth and Ward popping up since they’d be the biggest surprises to be working with us.
One additional thought available to us specifically is to bring CRADLE in. We could ask our mom for the team that kidnapped us to help with an assault. I hate the idea, but no one else could ask for it. Only problem is getting a hold of her, and we could probably have Kaiju King teleport someone like Liberty to us so she can play messenger.
