Title: Fighter's Journey (MS Paint Adventure) - Back in Action!
Post by: Monitor Lisard on October 31, 2015, 02:45:20 pm
"It has been nearly two hundred years since the Great Fire swept throught the earth. Giant clouds of heat and dust flooded the streets, reducing thosands of towns and villages to debris. Forests were burning; lakes and rivers evaporated, mountains themselves trembled, breaking into rubble and rocks. The air was filled with ash, and the sun could no longer be seen. The light of day gave way to eternal darkness, which ruled the land for centuries.

Many people did not live through the very first hours of disaster. Those, who survived, were eager to save their life. Dwarf, human, all peoples alike, dug deeper into the burning ground, fleeing from flames. Some were more prepared. Others managed to survive by chanse. Many more were not that lucky.

Among those, who witnessed the day of reconing and lived, was a group of elves. Their weathered asylum was well-hidden in a huge desert, which no more contrasted with the lands around. Those elves cultivated trees, creating a small oasis for themselves. Eventually, they estabilished contacts with others of their kind. Their village expanded slowly, protected by mighty warriors and poweful shamans.

You were born in this retreat, and you've lived there since then. But today, you're summoned before the elder, who will conduct the rite of initiation, and will give you the task of great importance, the task that will change the face of your town forever. Your kin relies on you. You must not fail."


Now, choose your path.

WARRIOR:

- Fighter: Highter finesse, skilled with melee weapons and also good at unarmed combat.

- Archer: Improved aim, skilled with ranged weapons.

SHAMAN:

- Acolyte: You enjoy druidic abilities and feel the harmony of the world. Your connection with the Great Spirit lets you use powerful healing and defensive magic.

- Mage: You utilize the power of nature for creating different spells.

ARTISAN:

- Herbalist: You know a thing or two about potions, farming and different stuff. Also, cooking.

- Treesinger: You're able to craft many things from wood.



So, uhm, hello there. My previous MS Paint afventure thread wasn't so popular, but I decided to give another try. As usual, my language migh sometimes seem improper of simply weird. Also, if somebody's willing to help me out with this one, I'd be glad if you do.

You flunked out of treesinging school due to your terrible voice, and your attempt at molding wood through dubstep was an unprecedented disaster.  So you become a fighter instead.  Who fights while performing interpretive dance.

Also, +1 to Fighter

People seem to be in favor of both fighter and artisan, so I'm inclined to go for fighter/treesinger... Good at both, master of none style.

Is this "Great Fire" thing a mod? Or can it actually happen in the world history?

That's a purely fictional event... Well, even thought there are some mods that revolve around post-apocalyptic gameplay, like fallout mods, for example. Anyway, I didn't really refer to them.

I'll have to cash my democracy chip in for Artisan, would be interesting to see a tale spun from that role.

You can alos put up a poll for it, placing the scenario in the hands of a horde of ardent button-clickers.

Whoever gets to wear the skirt with a tree engraving, and wielding a tree like some bad-ass treant club / staff / spear, or can be a used as a two-handed painting brush and quill-point pen. 

Yeah, that thing looks like a retracting claw to hold straws or twigs or troll fur.  I can dig this in my enemies' blood and draw my art in the battle field.

The pointy end, I'll use for my signature composing of three dots; three consecutive stabs in the faces of enemies.

H-hey, that's not true! You... you just need more practice, that's all. Your teacher always said you had a talent for treesinging. And you didn't flunk, really! You just thought that a change of activity would broaden your view of life... Or something... Even thought you're as agile as a sober dwarf. Seriously, that has nothing to with your alleged talent to ruin everything you touch. Anyway, it's about time you faced the elders.

You enter the tent. The elders (few of them, actually) greet you. While the acolyte's conducting the rite, you stare at the fireplace.

(http://i1185.photobucket.com/albums/z344/Georgethegunner/Elf%20Adventure%205.png) (http://s1185.photobucket.com/user/Georgethegunner/media/Elf%20Adventure%205.png.html)

"Come closer, child" the head acolyte announses. "The spirits fortold thy coming. We need to talk".

"H-heya there." You reply awkwardly. You were never good at formal conversations. "Iwethi told me you-"

"Move it, young lady". The acolyte looks irritated. "We've got no time to spare".

(http://i1185.photobucket.com/albums/z344/Georgethegunner/Elf%20Adventure%207_2.png) (http://s1185.photobucket.com/user/Georgethegunner/media/Elf%20Adventure%207_2.png.html)

"Listen carefully, young one. The spirits told us you're the one able to complete the quest...

The well-being of our tribe is at risk. We fight the desert each day with any means available, but the desert fights back. The Grove can hardly expand it's borders any more... The roots grow weak... The trunks do not hold against wind... The mightiest ironbarks fail to rise on these poor soils.

Iyathi Bravehawk. Our great druid, one of the first who settled in this place... He was the first to plant the trees that are now the heart of the Grove. He told us he knew of magic trees of some sort that could turn these badlands into flowering meadows. Almost a year ago, he left in search of those trees. He has not returned.

Your mission will be to find Iyathi and bring him back, if it's possible... We pray to Great Spirit for his life, but even a mighty warrior like him can fall. We fear for him. His task was important, but him being missing treads even more on us.

If you don't have any questions, child, we shall give you the items you need for your search."

"Alright, so you do understand everything... Why are you still here, then? We've got no time to waste!"

(http://i1185.photobucket.com/albums/z344/Georgethegunner/Elf%20Adventure%2010.png) (http://s1185.photobucket.com/user/Georgethegunner/media/Elf%20Adventure%2010.png.html)

Acolyte grabs your hand passively and guides you outside. A few weapon stands await you there. Generally, you prefer a wider range of weaponry to be at you disposal, but- Hey, that long-ass sword looks totally rad!

(http://i1185.photobucket.com/albums/z344/Georgethegunner/Elf%20Adventure%2011.png) (http://s1185.photobucket.com/user/Georgethegunner/media/Elf%20Adventure%2011.png.html)

"Choose wisely, child". The elder states. "The desert does not tolerate the weak" You nod
absentmindedly, trying to assemble the coolest gear ever worn by a warrior. Well, at least how see one after reading "Ustuth the Dragonslayer" and "Ironface" comics.

"Before you leave, child. Here's something you will definetely need when dealing with desertfolk. They call it "money". It is used by them to measure value of different items while bartering. The more worthy the meterial is, the more they will offer you in exchange. These ones are made of so-called rusted iron. Humans and other desert-dwellers make their weapons and tools with that. Don't make them  go to waste right away."

Finally, you put together the most awesome set of weaponry the world has ever seen! After witnessing your acts of outstanding badassery, raiders will flee like nippies they are, so there wouldn't be any need for fighting at all! Yeah, you were born ready! Ready to kick some evil butt! You eat orks for breakfest (not literally)! As soon as some king sees you destroy ten, no, twenty dragons in a row, they will award you with a title of "Mighty Battleprincess of AWESOMENESS and PROFOUND FACEPUNCHING"!

Though, as soon as you gather all the supplies and approach the border of the Grove, your confidence fades away. In fact, it would be the very first time you dwelled deep into the world outside your village. You feel somewhat nervous. There are many things that you might come across in the desert... Like, giant dingoes. Anyway, Acolyte told you that you should start from the closest human settlement, which is one day's journey to the east. So... Is it time to go?

Post by: Monitor Lisard on May 06, 2016, 08:16:36 am
Obviously, you could wait no more. It was time to leave, for the desert did not forgive those who hesitated for too long. You are about to hit the road... Aren't you?

(http://i1185.photobucket.com/albums/z344/Georgethegunner/Elf%20Adventure%2020.png) (http://s1185.photobucket.com/user/Georgethegunner/media/Elf%20Adventure%2020.png.html)

Actually, waiting till dawn seems a wiser move since you have no idea what might roams the badlands tonight. Goblin slavers with their disgusting beak dogs, or horrendous bogemen... Or even that slick dude from your swordelfship class you've been always too shy to talk to... Man, what a time to be socially inept.

Leaving the village at night is certainly dangerous. Many a beast dwells in the darkness... Large and ugly ones in particular.

You start a campfire, curl up and immediately fall asleep. It's been a big day for you, indeed.

Morning comes.

The air is still cold and crisp, and the cold white sun had only appeared from behind the dunes. You leave you meager bedding and get your munition together.

You embark on your recondite, and possibly dangerous journey.


(http://i1185.photobucket.com/albums/z344/Georgethegunner/Elf%20Adventure%20new%2015.png) (http://s1185.photobucket.com/user/Georgethegunner/media/Elf%20Adventure%20new%2015.png.html)

The desert greets you with most eerie silence.

(http://i1185.photobucket.com/albums/z344/Georgethegunner/Elf%20Adventure%20new%2016.png) (http://s1185.photobucket.com/user/Georgethegunner/media/Elf%20Adventure%20new%2016.png.html)

Water is undoubtedly the most important resourse here in badlands. A desert dweller knows several ways to obtain it. Coming across random brook is probably the easiest one.

-GRRR-

Uh oh! A wild beast is around! Gotta watch out for-

It is still a suggestion game, albeit it's hardly getting any kind of feedback now. I had to force the previous two updates, as there were no comments but only a vote on further actions. I must be doing something wrong.

After you kick it and punch it in the face let the head leave it's ugly body by using your sword and than eat its heart,  wait you are vegetarian . Maybe you've got it all wrong,  maybe you should befriend it using your inner elvish nature powers.

Aren't elves at peace with nature? Or is that not a thing in adventure mode?

Either way, I suggest slowly backing away from the badger while holding out your sword. That way, it might not attack. If it does attack, the sword is already out and it will most likely get impaled by the attempt.

Jump away and try to get the sword. If that fails and the badger gets the pin, let's hold up our arms to guard the throat. Then kick the Badger in the neathers.

If we get the sword, assume the defensive position with the sword out.

Sounds better than punching it in the face. Man, who recommended that anyway?

How about taking a defensive position? There'll probably be a better chance of hitting if we wait for the best chance to attack, and also a lower chance of being hit if we take precautions against it.

Alternately, why don't we try those eleven calming powers again?

I haven't forgotten this yet, lads! It's been a combination of exeptionally busy uni days, procrastination and self-hate over poor quality of the resulting pictures.



Duck,  than wrestle it by it's tail.

You roll a 3!

Duck, you say? I don't think it's a viable option at the moment. Unless my face is a negligible asset.

Jump away and try to get the sword. If that fails and the badger gets the pin, let's hold up our arms to guard the throat. Then kick the Badger in the neathers.

If we get the sword, assume the defensive position with the sword out.
Sounds better than punching it in the face. Man, who recommended that anyway?

You roll a 6!

Dodging, on the other hand...

Finally, all these years of unforgiving dodgeball training are paying off! Sorry, pal, I'm just too good at this.

If not, put it down.

Yippie, not dying is great.

Now, I would suggest following the brook for a while. Food is likely to grow near it, and people are likely to settle by it.
Plus you will have access to water while you travel it. Brooks and streams like these are the life blood of any wasteland. 

Maybe try tree singing on that palm to make a useful tool. Maybe a simple stave could be of use, or perhaps a wooden helm to protect from sun and savage.

It makes things easier to draw to be honest since you can use and reuse sprites and backgrounds multiple times. Also, it means less trouble with proportions once you have created the outlines for various character groups. I believe you know that already since your own comic is far superior to mine in terms of art quality/picture resolution/writing/everything. Also, experience.

Although I also went for this to have some kind of fresh start since I've been missing for, like, a year.

To be honest, I don't really enjoy animal abuse. Of course, it would have been cool to have such a companion, but let's face it: I have tried to befriend it two time so far, and it didn't end well. Let's give it some time to lick wounds before we give it another shot, shall we?

As for that tree-singing idea... I'm a bit rusty, but why not. It does require quite some energy though.

Maybe just add something to hang on the unicorn horn. Some cloth to the back of the neck and that should do.

I would also suggest heading to the town and act diplomatically. Keep a lookout of any dogs or people that require help.

Try to recall what money is. Head to temple to get basic information of how things are outside your elf village.

Money?... You mean, those metal sticks the Acolyte told me about? She said humans and other races trade them for actual goods. She also mentioned they make rusty iron, silver, gold and copper ones, but I have no idea on their actual worth. You could craft a weapon using those, I guess?... They are heavy, for sure, five to six pounds of load.

Think of a brim for the hat. Tell the man you will give him a yam for directions to a temple or tavern.
A temple can get you information likely for free and in a likely less shady environment.

Tavern can also provide information as part of idle chatter, at the risk of more devious characters.

The ball itself is not a problem. The problem is that it needs to protect your face/head/etc. from the sun, and that is not currently occurring. Anyway, that's not important right now.
Yes, getting to a temple or tavern is a good idea. I'd suggest the temple.

Panic leads to hurting yourself and bad situations, and "awesomeness" is only a result of panic so much as (calmly) figuring out how to extract yourself from a complete rout of a battle is a result of going into said battle without any plan whatsoever. In other words, it is figuring out how to get back to your original situation before the disaster, if not actually still being worse off, rather than true awesomess that involves starting from one position and so sucessfully enacting a plan that you're overall goals are even more furthered than ever possibly expected.

Panic leads to hurting yourself and bad situations, and "awesomeness" is only a result of panic so much as (calmly) figuring out how to extract yourself from a complete rout of a battle is a result of going into said battle without any plan whatsoever. In other words, it is figuring out how to get back to your original situation before the disaster, if not actually still being worse off, rather than true awesomess that involves starting from one position and so sucessfully enacting a plan that you're overall goals are even more furthered than ever possibly expected.

We may almost certainly need to seek mental help. The local temple is likely the best readily accessible location where we may be able to receive it - or have all the demons exorcized, as the case may be.

In this episode, back view of the main character! Also, a hand without without gloves or mittens!



Fuck off, round-ears.
That was not at all what I meant about hanging cloth from the horn. I was thinking a sheet of cloth attached to the helm at both the base and tip of the horn, as well as at the tips of the wings.

As for the "business deal" - no. Fog that bastard. We're going in to town, as I've suggested earlier - as if that is nothing out of the ordinary.

"Oi round ears, shag off wit' yo deals. Here, I could give ya dis yam if ye told me where the temple is."

"Ugh, fine. You see that dome there in the distance? That's the temple. Now piss off before I change my mind about whacking you".

(http://i.imgur.com/k3lXZSI.png) (http://imgur.com/k3lXZSI)


Think of a brim for the hat. Tell the man you will give him a yam for directions to a temple or tavern.
A temple can get you information likely for free and in a likely less shady environment.

Tavern can also provide information as part of idle chatter, at the risk of more devious characters. 

Own the cloth tied around your unicorn horn.  It looks rad, and you shouldn't change it just to please those other voices in your head.
The ball itself is not a problem. The problem is that it needs to protect your face/head/etc. from the sun, and that is not currently occurring. Anyway, that's not important right now.
Yes, getting to a temple or tavern is a good idea. I'd suggest the temple.


Huh, that went well.

You enter the town. It's even more dirty and cramped than you expected.

That was an easy find. That was not only the tallest, but also the most well-designed building here. A human or a dwarf would have probably appreciated the stonework, but you're not much an architect.

As for the rest of it... I like this Almef. I like him a great deal.
I don't like this "Judjement Day" deal though. I mean, it's great for the people who are righteous, but how is that decided? What if somebody did sin out of ignorance for its incorrectness? On whose code are people's morals and actions weighed?
Is it possible that one may work their entire lives to try to be righteous, only to find out on Judjement Day that they've been doing it all wrong, and end up getting lumped in with the other sinners to burn for an eternity?

I would have thought that he sold just be using his divine weapon that spits fire and death. The thrust of his weapon would render the souls of his foes from their bodies

Other option is just have it be a type of magical artifact that looks like a gun due to how good the gun shape happens to be.
Similar to convergent evolution, the gun shape happens to be the optimal shape for death spitting weapons of freedom.

"To be saved, you shall worship no other gods before our Lord. You will not use any of his names in vain... You will observe the holy rites... You are to honour thy father and thy mother...

"Huh, surroundings. I'm not a young man anymore, I don't travel out of town much these days. Well, to the north lies our beautiful capital Rinpibo. Caravans from there come here up to two times in a week, or at least weekly. Then, there's the Holy City of Alapictham, which is situated to the northeast. It's easier and safer to travel there from Rinpibo. To the west lie The Indigo Dunes, a bare desert. Somewhere on the other side of it there is said to be an ocean with some hamlets on the shore. To the west lies the endless Desert of Equity, a dangerous place where night creatures and goblins roam freely. To the south there is a river by the name of Gnarledromance. A township of Tamedtunem, surrounded by many minor hamlets, lives off crops and stock raising. The caravans go there from the capital loaded with weapons, tools, trinkets and other stuff come back loaded with food, drinks, leather and cloth. it is said that far south there are woods, spared by the Great Fire. Some people claim that elves live there, but I haven't heard much from the travelers. Maybe you know about that better".

(http://i.imgur.com/oQR8Gzk.png) (http://imgur.com/oQR8Gzk)

"And finally, to the Southwest, there lies the Dead City. No one goes into the Dead City. Only the mightiest champions can brave its dangers and come out alive".

"Huh, the name does sound unsettling. Why is it so dangerous though?"

"No one knows. But I tell you what. The place is clearly haunted. Don't go there. Like, ever."

I have used Photoshop to rotate things in one picture (from the second update featuring badger), and it didn't look too good. As for the rest, it's 100% MS Paint. As for that, I use "transparent selection" a lot.

My quest? Oh, right. I have to locate Iyathi Brawehawk the druid and bring him back to the Grove, if possible.

"So, uh, have you seen an elven druid around?"

"Elven druid? We don't get elves visiting here too often. When did they visit us, you say? What are they like?"

(http://i.imgur.com/qFAbCVB.png) (http://imgur.com/qFAbCVB)

It's actually been years since you have seen Iyathi in person.

"Uh, he... He's an elf. Rather tall, taller than most humans I think. Blond hair, fairer skin... A huge braided beard, long bushy brows, weird white eyes... That's it, I think? He's also ripped, if that makes any difference".

"Huh, I don't remember such a person coming here. You should probably try asking an innkeeper of the barkeep, the tend to meet and talk more to outsiders".

You see, we Grove nation are simple people. We worship Romimi the great spirit, which is the spark of life given to us by Mother Nature. We do not do evil upon each other, not because we fear the judjement, but because we are ultimately designed that way. Maybe Mother Nature in her wisdom let Romimi give this people a strict set of rules to follow and thus enjoy this world. But isn't it better to understand, than to follow blindly? I cannot say we elves are perfect or that we didn't have dark ages of our own, but I say again, our way is our way, and we are fit to follow it as these people are fit to follow theirs."

"Oh, sorry! I didn't mean to wave my sword around your face like that!... So, what if I wanted to convert to your faith and worship Armok God of Blood with you?"

"I beg your pardon?... I believe you got it wrong. "Armok" is neither a name of our Lord, nor the name of any saint. It is an ancient word, we use it in prayers. It means something like "be blessed", though I'm not sure, you better consult a theologist. As for conversion, you should meet the high priest, he should be around here in an hour".

Okay, we are clearly post-apocalypse, because that is definitely a city in the modern sense of the word.

We should probably go to Tamedtunem, though not before getting some supplies.
And longer sleeves, so as not to disturb the populace. Wouldn't want to get lynched.

Are we leaving on foot? I've been here for like half an hour, should rest for a bit more... Maybe.

Anyway, I need to buy some supplies! Food, water - that's great, but what about other things? Ammunition, weapons, trinkets, comic books... This place has quite a market. I'm running low on rags, having used those here and there. Oh, I know! I should buy a dress! Gals love pretty dresses, don't we? Also, we like fluffy kittens, cute boys and oversized serrated swords!

Whatever we do, don't go by the Desert of Equity. Also get unrealistic notions about traveling to the dead city and becoming a champion warlord general princess.

One day, girl. One day.

Also, no on the sword, get a pole instead. And maybe find a kitten instead of buying one, use elf skills to take a stray.

Sadly, this updoot here is still a lazy one. Sorry!

"That'll be three irons, Miss."

...That's surprisingly cheap. I mean, I have ten iron bars here. I could buy as much as three swords!

"That's neat. You got polearms here?"

"Spears and pikes, yes".

"What about poles?"

"Unfortunately, no, we don't stock on poles here, Miss. Here are some training spears you might be interested in. Two coppers each".

Ask about the goblin in the corner, but most importantly name the kitteh, "allergy".

NAME THE KITTEN "MILKDRINKER"

Name the cat "Kilo"

First for things that matter. What is yer name, cat?

I have spent 7 irons on a shord sword and a long spear, and now I am FULLY PREPARED for EVERYTHING!... I wish I had something to trade in though. Maybe my old sword? I kinda liked it though, and its well-worked wood didn't bother me as much as this... Pike of subpar craftsmanship.

"By the way, what is this greenskin doing here?"

"This XXcartboard statueXX? Old man Xugot brought it here when he settled down in this village. It's supposed to be a goblin warrior of sorts... Haven't seen anything like this dress, though. You good at reading old texts? Here..."

You are a part of Kusnath Tur, a Special Recon Group. Your actions were never approved or acnowledged by Politburo or High Command. Few people know of your existence, not even the Chairman himself.

(http://i.imgur.com/LMMNVfW.png) (http://imgur.com/LMMNVfW)

Your current task is to locate the contact and extract them from this vast underground facility, which is guarded by a particulary nasty detachment of Dwarves In Black.

You and your partner managed to slip inside the prison unnoticed.

Your progress have been hampered by those two security guards, who are blocking a narrow corridor for you. You need to get past them somehow to enter Cell Block A.
