(( Since I've changed appearance from demonic to human, I'd change the dialogue color too. ))

Everything's right. Essence gathered was enough for me to transform. What about Bargar?

Check if the bears are alright.

Transform

1173
See if the bear is alright, then take a better look at the body. Share the essence with companions.

[OOC] Well, I'm going to continue the Gogol stories so let's add another cult to the list.

Spoiler: The Inches of Torment (click to show/hide)

Journal of Dark Two

Klan-Master ran into caverns and saw three figures, conjuring up army of undead. His ring was almost resonating, clearly showing that Dark One's energies were at work there. In one of the dwarves, he recognised Drazoth the Third. Perhaps this is why he made the necromancer-god his puppet in the past - to get even greater powers, to rule Doomforests and it's energies. Undead quickly took care of rampaging crundles. Suddenly Dark Two's amulet started glowing. For some reason, he know that he must go to one of the hidden chambers of the fortress. He reached the spot quickly and saw two shadows standing close to what seemed like a soap-powered machine. In a bright flash many random places showed up to them, then the darkness returned. Shadows took something similar to blueprints, turned around and escaped from something. This was a right moment for Dark Two to run away as well.

Meanwhile in place beyond time and space

Void. Not a usual void - it looks like the space has no dimensions here, as if the nonexistence condensed here in a pure form. Two seemingly shapeless figures talk.

- You have come... - Dark One wasn't surprised with this visit.

- Nicely done, Dark One. The chaos in Doomforests is just delightful! - said Gogol.

- The first part of the plan is completed. Soon Klan-Master would be ready.

- Excellent! What about the conspiracy? - Gogol was curious of Dark One's plans.

- In the right place, at the right time. As planned, I didn't masked my energies...

They continue onward, floating in unusuall nothingness and talking about next steps of their plan.

Meanwhile in Steelgolds

Steelgolds, a town founded by The Cremated Councils of The Nations of Scrubbing back in the Age of Myth in the very first year of documented history. It was commonly attacked by minotaurs, dragons, giants or even vile trolls – until the hill titan Kedusm Mistryravens, the Fell of Berries destroyed it. The town was rebuilt however, restored to it’s life by Ulet Brimransacked in early spring of 94 in the name of The Monastery of Burials of The Order of Phantoms. After three years of her rule, she was afraid that Steelgolds could meet the same fate again, so she turned for help to Gogol, who in exchange for settlement’s safety, cursed Ulet with vampirism for eternal servitude in midwinter of 97. Since that time, nobody encountered a single monster in the town of south… except Ulet.

Deep in the Newtmined, the catacombs deep beneath The Monastery of Burials, Ulet Brimransacked meets with group of goblin outcasts – The Inches of Torment. Founded in 1, they moved to Newtmined in the early spring of 2. After death of Båx Fellwarns in 65, it’s first warlord, their leader is Ulet. Devoted servants of Gogol, the god of suicide.

Ancient vampire with few goblin acolytes enters a chamber with pile of skulls and bones. With one gesture she ignites the pile. Stench of burnt bones fills the air. Ulet points at one of the acolytes, who immediately drops off his robe, stabs himself in a stomach with his dagger and jumps into flames. Ritual to summon Gogol’s avatar – sacrificial suicide has been completed. From the burst of flames comes out a naked human male with dark hair and black, piercing eyes. He takes the dropped robe and wears it on.

- Welcome Master!

- Why do you summon me servant? – He speaks calmly, his voice is full of energy.

- Things are getting interesting in Doomforests.

- What have you found out?

- There are new cults operating within the fortress. A paladinial order and it’s antagonist – The Order of the Black Arrow.

Gogol smiles widely. - Good. God of Blood loves such stories, and when Doomforests is considered, he’s mostly pleased! Armok is not a goodly grandpa that Inquisition thinks he is after all! – He says amused.

- The Conspiracy could extend their influence over these new factions… they might grow too strong...

- Conspiracy is not a threat. It’s a battle they have no chance of winning, no matter all the puppet mastery. – Gogol seems bored.

- The RegenReich have lost their influence over Doomforests, Don Pedro probably disappeared.

- It was inevitable. – He yawns.

- What are your plans master? – Ulet asks curiously.

-Doomforests is not a place where plans work. Nifih thinks that overrunning it with vampires and undead is the way to get to it’s energy veins – pointless loss of a good soldier such as Osp Schockedroomed. Necromancers of Sanctumcoals tried to brainwash a dwarf and send him with squad of their adepts. They only managed to create an abomination of a god that is Dark One. – Gogol summarizes fails at getting anything done in Doomforests. - We need to get into political structure of Doomforests, to it’s seat of power!

- How can we do it?

- There are two valid points that allows us to do it without starting another useless cult. Dark Two, and The Prime Minister – Smunstu Monsteryearlings. Goodly leader of knightly order and a goblin politician of unknown parentage. The task of converting them to our side is left to you servant! – Gogol says while going into the flames. His body turns to ashes and fire extinguishes.

1176
Use whispers and attack cautiously (that smoke seems pretty bad). Kill it before it explodes/gas kills us.

1177
Disappear and silently claw at the weak spots. Bears should attack when things go wrong or when monster is distracted.

The Order of the Ale
Leader: Dark Two

The first official knightly order of Doomfotests (both in game and in RP). Their main goals are maintaining overall safety of the fortress, charity actions and praising the booze. The Order has important impact on political elections (as can be seen from Pencil_ Art's mayoral reelection). They are close associates of The Ministry, which had great impact on founding of the Order.

1179
Follow these tracks and find that monster.

(( I think that stuff like minor/lesser bloodsucker/nosferatu could also work for earlier stages. ))

Marvelous idea!

Now I'll have companions.

Meanwhile in DateTattooed

As the Moon shone high up in the bright cloudless night sky, two cloaked wanderers met upon entrance of The Chapel of Charming - a human female and a cave fish woman. Two vampires. First was Ulet Brimransacked, high bone of The Order of Phantoms with seat of power in Steelgolds. She was cursed with vampirism by Gogol in midwinter of 97. Then Arug Commonwhisker, inhabitant of Kingdompit lair. Cursed by Nifih in midspring of 789. Arug was waiting for Ulet's arrival. Finally they met, chanting eerily to open secret entrance to parts of chapel hidden for mere mortals. A few chairs, an altar and a stone slab hanging on a wall were placed in a darkened room. They sat down, talking:

- What was so important that I had to travel to this petty chapel youngling?! - Ulet was irritated. She was probably an eldest vampire still alive, born in 37. And now she was called by such a miserable animalmen vampire without any words of explanation.

- Nifih contacted with me... We need to talk about the tribunal... - Arug said unsure if ancient vampire won't outright disintegrate her for her words.

- What tribunal peasant!? Gogol lost his interest in tribunal, and we both know that only good works of Jeha - Osp Schockedroomed and Gelu Habitbuds are long gone. That dammed coward-goddess is staying dormant since midwinter of 525!

- But Nifih told that Jeha is growing in power, waiting for a proper moment to unleash hordes of children of the night!

- Jeha is a weakling! Prayers she received during dormant years are only a quarter of what Gogol or Nifih receive in a month alone! - Ulet grows angrier over time. - Lets face it, you and your foolish goddess without help of Gogol won't be able to take over Doomforests, and my master is not going to waste his time if he has to share the prize! - She says fanatically.

- Traitors! I shall smite you down for your disobedience to only real goddess! - Arug shouts while unsheathing her dagger. She charged at Ulet, but ancient vampire dodged easily and caught her neck.

- Fools! You will all end as Dark One's mindless husks, we'll see to it with Gogol! - Ulet shouted while her body was disappearing, teleported by her master back to Steelgolds.

It's a long story. After leaving lair of the sole shegarian dragon of nearby woods, I headed towards Doro village, seeking Fenia. My goal was to talk with her and find a way in which I could live among humans. But I stumbled upon one of the scouts and had to run away back to forest. Then I was attacked by two adventurers, and after defeating them I decided that I need power to transform so I'd look like an ordinary human. Then I stumbled upon you, and you know what happened next. Do you know where I could quickly absorb some power and continue my journey?

Talk with Bargar and his convenient neighbor Barak.

1184
(( I knew there was something not right about that Barak, but I was too lazy to check. ))

1185
I accept your apologies, and want to apologize too...

Be Barak's guest.
