>Out of desperation to save his kingdom, the Mouse King offers you his daughter in marriage How do you politely turn down the request and explain that such an offer is of no value to a human in a Lawful Good Paladin-esque way?
The lands of Pavilion are wracked with war and chaos, with nearly half of its nations in armed conflict with another. And yet life goes. Nixen children kneel in temples and breath the smell of burning roses and drink of silver blessed water. Glorious battle is waged under the eyes of a living metal god. Lost souls struggle to find a new life in a land without magic. Vitruvian freaks tinker, dwarves smith, svaltfar and vizari probe mysterious arcana. Even as many places are engulfed in a tide of blood, life goes on.

Swiftarn is a classic rules light NRP! We're full up on players at the moment (or at least I'm zeroed out on time) but feel free to spectate!
Welcome to /qtg/, a place to talk about quests. Previous thread >>6181007
>What is a quest? An interactive story in which a Quest Master (QM) writes and provides the readers with options on how to proceed — similar to a choose-your-own-adventure book or an old text adventure
>Formatting guide: Only the thread's OP can format. Note that should the OP change ID, they will lose this ability as well. Remove the spaces between the [] brackets and the letters: Bold: <span class="mu-s">text</span> Italics: <span class="mu-i">text</span> Red: [ red ] <span class="mu-r">text</span> [ /red ] Blue: [ blue ] <span class="mu-b">text</span> [ /blue ] Green: [ green] <span class="mu-g">text</span> [ /green ]
>Formatting guide for everyone: Dice (type this in “options”): dice + [no. of dice]d[no. of sides on the dice] (optionally you can add modifiers: dice + [no. of dice]d[no. of sides on the dice]+[modifier]; for a negative modifier type: +-[modifier]
Examples: dice+1d100 = a 1d100 roll, dice+1d100+10 = a 1d100 roll with a +10 modifier.
Spoiler: spoiler or by pressing alt+s in-thread (doesn't work in OP)
>QM question: Are there any special occasions you mark in your quests/traditions that you do? Even something like asking questions at the beginning/end of the thread or art for certain points in the story.
>Player question: What would encourage you to make a fanwork (art/a side story) of a quest you like? Does /qst/'s nature as a 4chan board make you less inclined to? Have you ever made something for a quest you like before?
>General question: What are you looking forward to for April Fools, the annual 4chan bit, something elsewhere, or gimmick quests? If you're answering this after April 1st, do you have any expectations for increased activity in the upcoming season(s)?
>Lurker question: If you can make it to vote, vote! If not, when are you reading quests? Somewhere you can't easily post? Are you a phoneposter or simply a PC lurker?
>Miscellaneous question: If you won the lottery tomorrow but you had to buy 4chan, how would you improve the /qst/ing experience?
The world has another side, one with secret societies and hidden powers vying for control. But it is not merely humans, nay. For millennia, creatures which a modern man considers fables have been battling in the shadows, both within their own, and others. Only the Magical Girls can slay the demons of humanity's suffering, and clean up the supernatural messes along the way!
But that, is for later. Every hero has to start somewhere.

You have contemplated you life, and found it lacking. Nothing is going overly wrong, your future is looking decent, probably could line up a decently paying job in a few years if you made the effort. But for what? What drives you? What fulfills you? Would simply having more be better when the quantity is not the source of your unhappiness? No. You hate your life, not for the extent of it’s misery, but for it’s rotting mediocre stagnation. If you do not value what you have, discarding it should not be a problem. It still strung a bit, now it doesn’t.
So you are on your way, looking for fulfillment. All you found so far was discarded options
Your current search has led you to stand in front of a seedy club downtown. A sign above it glows a soft neon, presenting the letters G A M M A. Weird name. You don’t know if answers lies inside, but you do know that you never tried a place like this before.
How do you get in? Where does your confidence lie?
>They look like they check IDs at the front, but a good amount of junkies are smoking, every few minutes, a group goes in. The bouncer doesn’t look like much of anything either. Maybe you could blend in. (Social Stealth, establishes Instinct) >There is an alley next to the club. You saw some snake finish her smoke break and use the door. You bet they do it often enough to not bother locking it. (Breaking and Entering, establishes Finesse) >There is a balcony on the other side, it’s pretty cold, looks empty. Got a rainwater pipe right next to it, easy climb. (Urban Parkour, establishes Athletics)
It has been 300 years since the Calamity War had taken the lives of an third of the overall human population, all due to the terrifying and deadly efforts of machines called Mobile Armors. After the war, things were never quite the same again, the organization known as Gjallarhorn was formed and become the heroes and protectors of the Sol Sphere during and after the war. Though, soon their glory and power would slowly start to whittle away due to their overreach and oppression of those who lived on other planets.
This would lead to the formation of criminal organizations such as Space Pirates and the infamous Teiwaz being formed, leading to further rivalry and destabilization of trust in Gjallarhorn...but this currently, or perhaps did, involve you. For you are an open soul who has yet to discover the parameters of their new destiny in this world. Now you must choose, who were you?
>An member of one of the seven star families(Specify) >An member of Chryse Guard Security >An independent mercenary
In this world many tribes of mortals can be found. As they try to make sense of the world they began to believe in many gods. You play as the first pantheon. Will you work together to shape the world for the sake of your followers, or will you kill everyone that doesn't pray to you. The choice is yours. Character Sheet Name: What do your worshippers call you. Domain: What is it you are primarily worshiped for. Can choose up to five. Location: Pick a color and mark on the map where your worship begins. Backstory: While the first Gods are born from the faith of their believers, they tend to believe in the myths that birthed them. Tell us what you and your followers believe to be true. Culture (optional): Give us some information about the tribe that worships you.
With the majority of the Seventh Universe united under the banner of the PTO, Emperor Cooler at its head, the universe has known a time of unrivaled peace. But in the shadows threats have been growing, nursing grudges against the PTO and the Saiyan race in particular. And now those threats are rising, stepping out of the shadows to openly challenge the established order. Seeking nothing short of the destruction of New Salda and the extinction of the entire Saiyan race, can you prevent this outcome? Or will the Saiyan race be reduced to nothing more than memories, their heroes nothing more than ink in the pages of the history books?
You the players will (most often) control Karn; wielder of the mighty Berserker Soul and hope of the entire PTO, not only the Saiyan race. From his lowly beginnings as a Saiyan Brawler with a sub-3000 powerlevel in Age 733, only a few years into his time as a member of the PTO, he has grown in power and skill, overcoming the world-ending threats that have come for the Saiyans to become the strongest Saiyan of his time at AGE 759. From the massive Covenant empire to demonic incursions, mad cultists to vengeful gods, none have been strong or clever enough to put down Karn for good. But will one man's power be enough to protect everyone from the rising threats? Or will death come from those who you least expect it from? Your choices may mean the difference between survival and extinction, so choose carefully.
Quest rules are as follows(unless otherwise noted): >30 minute vote times >Pick ONLY ONE option when voting >Dice rolls are all best of first three correctly-rolled dice >One dice roll per person per post unless three players have not yet rolled, and ten minutes has passed since your previous roll >Crits are 100 on a d100(a 99 or paired rolls may net you an extra bonus) >Crit fails are a 1/100 with no passing rolls, or if two 1s are rolled regardless of the third >Write-ins are both allowed and encouraged, but OOC options will be ignored >If your goal is simply to troll, at least put in enough effort to make it funny >Have fun

It has been 100 years since ancient beings, known as the Old Ones, walked the Earth with their two strong feet. Now they are gone and we animals now rule the remains that they left behind. With our new knowledge of sword and sorcery, we were able to survive in peace for a while, but then came the three factions. The Apes: Strong giants, claiming to be as just as the old ones and believe they should be the ones to rule over the new world. The Pigs: An intellectual but slothful group who wish to rule the world with an iron hoof and remain kings while the others remained as dumb animals. Then there the Lizards: A fast and large group that want to set the world a blaze. Trying to forget the harsh past that the old ones left. All three sides wishing to go war and destroy one another to bring in what they believe to be true peace. But, unbeknownst to everyone, there was another group. One that was trying their best to find a way to heal everyone. To bring back order. You found it.... and now you are taking care of it.
