(Varistha's Notes write-up: http://pastebin.com/dh2TySCZ)

You push yourself into a sitting position and fold your legs beneath yourself, allowing your thoughts to drift for a moment while you debate what you ought to try. You recall that meditation the Metal Codex showed you earlier, the one which entailed eroding your soul until only the core of your being remained and then reinforcing that core. You're a little hesitant to so drastically reduce your own soul, but you're willing to give it a shot. The Codex hasn't steered you wrong so far.

You clear your thoughts and allow your consciousness to fade away. The sound of wind rustling the grass, the chorus of chirping crickets, and the crackling of the fire all cease. It isn't long before the ebb and flow of vys fades into view, casting the world in shades of blue and purple. You note that Markos has a larger than average vys pool, for a human. He's probably on par with an untrained Samjan. You imagine he knows a spell or two. Perhaps he has a basic understanding of an element.

You sink deeper into your trance, the silhouettes of your companions and the ambient vys slowly blending together, until only black remains. Then bright dots of light start to shine through the void. Souls glittering like stars in the night sky. Curiously, Markos' soul is green rather than golden. There was another green soul in El-Amin. You wonder what it could mean? He didn't seem especially powerful, nor very unique. To you he seems like your average noble's son. Probably a fourth or fifth child, well outside the line of inheritance no doubt.

Regardless you focus on yourself, and begin to channel Earth magic. At first you're not really sure how to go about it, but let instinct guide you. You bathe your soul in a corrosive field, letting the spell eat away at it. You note that it eats away at some parts faster than it does others, boring holes through your soul with surprising rapidity. You slowly feel your emotions draining away, your thoughts still, but not nearly to the extent that you would expect based on how much you've taken.

What did those portions of your soul contain? You don't feel very different. You're even less affected than you'd usually be if you cut away a thin slice around the outside of your soul. Perhaps fragmented memories? The remnants of long forgotten events you've kept stored piecemeal, referenced only to weave together nonsensical dreams?

The glow of your soul intensifies the more you reduce the outer shell, and it is indeed some sort of shell. Yet, the more you eat away the weaker you feel. You start to forget things. The names of your companions, where you are, what you're doing. Where you were born, what you've done, who you are. You also feel your vys rapidly bleeding away, leaving you a shell of your true self. Your breath comes weakly and erratically, your heart palpitating in your chest.

However, you persist. Only when you finally break through the shell to the core beneath do you finally stop. The kernel from which the rest of your soul is constructed is a surprisingly small thing. Perhaps no larger than a coin. It is eaten through with holes, and constructed of some dull black stone. Lying within is a bright bead of light, almost blindingly bright.

You channel the last vestiges of your power into the kernal of light, strengthening it. Building it up. The holes dotting the black shell surrounding it begin to close, and the stone itself starts to lighten in color even as the glow strengthens and the core grows. You push all that you can into the spell, and then feel yourself slipping. You lose consciousness and coherency, slumping over to lay against your sleeping mat.
>Vys Pool: (0/[1])

You're awoken an indeterminate amount of time later by a woman's strangled cry. There's a discharge of vys from the tent next to you, and the sound of a man's voice cursing. You push yourself into a sitting position, rubbing your eyes wearily. You feel incomplete, yet oddly more in control of yourself. You're not wholly certain how to explain it.

>>39956589
Can we get a sanity check? I've got a good feeling about this.

>>39956707
several entities have been in our mind. could be the Entity, could be the parasite from Surya's Heart, could be the dracolich, hell it could even have been something Zahak took while he messed with our mind while he was an embryo. Probably a mix of the former three.

>>39956589

>>39956791
If Markos is hurting the girl then we will paralyse+permanency him. Then learn the pain effect and add that.

>>39956824
It's temporary and will return when we sleep, relax.

>>39956731
Eh, it was our insanity. I am an expert on this topic.

>>39956521
>IRC Channel

Because between two asks and people having the memory of a goldfish when it comes to goals and planning, talking about the quest wasn't fragmented enough, right?

Personally, I think we should get all elements to Expert before proceeding further with one than where we are now.

>>39956857
Think of it this way, Anon. Now you can nag your fellow players directly even when the quest isn't running.

>>39956731

But Soma, he did eat the Cereal.

>>39956844
Permanency cost soul, which is already weak atm. Besides, that's too much effort and too much edge. Nah, feeding him to Ricky will do just fine.

I've completely forgotten, why are people limited to the number of grandmasteries they can achieve?

>>39956844
Just kill him, or cripple him, maybe cut off his dick or something.

>>39956824
likely to be fixed once we sleep.
While I do prefer mind fortification. This one seems like a pretty good meditation, to get up to master with. then once we've gotten there we finish Metal Codex (7/10 Chapters Read)
And if mind fortification sounds better we do that.
But I doubt it. Shit it might just be a much stronger and better form of mind fortification.

>>39956844
Nah, directly and purposefully harming a child is grounds for forceful donation of your body to science. DISECTION TIME!

>>39956918
Castration,only if he was trying to rape her.

>>39956905
Innate growth of soul or something like that. Think talent.

>>39956886
That's okay, I'll just not use it and vote without knowing plans and whatever info you dump there.

Fair warning, I'll probably need to run and pick up my sister pretty soon here.

>>39956970
I'm not going to dump anything there. I've mostly just been clarifying things. Not even Banished Quest things. Criminal Negligence Quest things. If the other players come up with something though, that's their prerogative.

>>39956989
>pick up

these fucking euphemisms are getting more and more abstract by the day

>>39956946
We should read the regular version of the Metal Codex to the end, to be honest.
and then see if we aren't good enough to read further in the magic version.

>>39956953
That would be a good chance of anatomy training!
I've been dying to do it!
Soma said we would gain a bonus into healing. This would be great.

So we should totally go full vengeful spirit on him, perhaps pretend to be one of the gods and this was a test, or maybe pretend to be the guardian Angel of the kid, whatever we do I want him to be utterly horrified and be begging for death by the end, bitch ass nigga touching my delicious vys filled loli

We could pretend to be surya, Mik is insane enough and is violent enough, plus. illusions, claim it was a test of his character from pani, pani loves kids, she'd be buttmad at this, totally would send surya for divine punishment

>Investigate, it's probably Markos causing trouble.

>>39957081

It's like you don't want him to suffer.
We will be cutting things off and regrowing them slowly. After leeching him of vys. so he can't do shit.

>>39957024
I've been wanting to do this since forever. Second

>>39957081
>kill him first
We went over this last time, we need to see the body in motion for a better understanding, do you want them bonuses or not god damn it.

>>39957129
Yeah, no, he doesn't deserve that, probably didn't even get to touch anywhere naughty.
>>39957161
No anon, cutting him open will mess it up, it won't be natural, gotta get Partial Invisibility for that sweet anatomy shit.

I don't want to lose time with torture. If we are going to kill him we do it quickly and cleanly.

>>39957188
Can we kill or deaden his sense of pain and then start cutting? If we get a better bonus for working on a live body, I'd rather do that.

>>39957188
Its not torture it's a vivisection.

>>39957250

>>39956589
Wait did we just repair our sanity?

It's been awhile since i've caught a live thread, but don't we still have that ring that's slowly healing our sanity? Or is that no longer a thing?

>>39957312
It's at least two people cause I want to.

>>39957182
With our skills as a vat is we wouldn't ruin the specimen, we could probably slowly reduce his outer layers to ash, or slice them off via water scalpel of extreme magical precision, nature will help. And dont tell me the child molester doesn't deserve punishment

>>39957344
It's very slow.

>>39957335
Good question. Can we have a sanity meter soma?

>>39957362
We have surgeons tools in are cloak. scalpels and everything.

>>39957344
we do, it dropped our insanity one point and we're at 2/7 days until it drops again I think

>>39957312
I am going for it.
>>39957294
Not for shits and giggles. I am doing it so we gain a better undertsanding of healing.
I could care less if we have to cut him or not. even just meditation on his paralyzed body would be fine for me. Fixing things, see how things work. If he feels pain w.e if he doesn't still all for it. Just If he did something to the girl under our protection I wouldn't mind using him is all.

>anybody who disagrees is da samefag and gay and stupid and edgy :^(
Banished quest

>>39957362
14 is technically alright in the world.
What you're looking at here is rape.

>>39957294
No, I want a healing bonus. If not him, we need an enemy or someone to experiment on.

You sigh, pushing yourself to your feet and hunching over while you maneuver yourself out of the tent. It's kept shut by a row of buttons, which takes you some time to undo. Climbing out, you roll your shoulders and shake some feeling back into your limbs before wandering over to Aylin's tent. You hear cloth tearing and frown. You just bought her those clothes, now someone's gone and ruined them. That's rude.

You glance around the campsite but don't see Regulus anywhere. You hear someone crashing through the grass, somewhere. Did he run off after some creature? Get tricked by Markos? Abandon you? Well it's not particularly relevant. Making your way over to Aylin's tent you grab hold of the tent flaps and start working down, swiftly unbuttoning them so you can duck your head inside.

You find that Aylin lies still, almost impossibly still. You think she might be paralyzed. Markos is crouched over her, struggling to get her legs apart. One of the problems with the paralysis spell is that it's hard as hell to manipulate anyone you cast it on. He's so absorbed in his task that he doesn't notice you hovering at the entrance to the tent. He's torn her dress around the hem in his efforts, but the dress isn't completely ruined. Her breast, not that she really has breast worth mentioning, are exposed. She's flat as a board. Her face is frozen in a look of rage, teeth barred and lips curled in a snarl.

>>39957362
>child molester
>15 year old
It's not like he tried to fuck a 6 year old, anon, dull your edge a bit.
He doesn't deserve hours of unimaginable pain.
He probably didn't even get to touch her groin.
>>39957393
Strange how anatomy study never got support before even when we had human corpses, or could've paid for people to cut up, no, only when people have an excuse to go MUH VENGEANCE and MUH PAIN

It's patently obvious what's going on here, and you're far too tired to put up with it at the moment. Reaching in you grab Markos by the collar and jerk him backwards, eliciting a surprised shriek. Unfortunately as you drag him out of the tent he clutches your hand and fires off a paralysis spell. You feel your limbs start to lock in place, your body balanced precariously halfway in the tent and halfway out. He starts to laugh, wriggling out of your grip with some effort. Of course you could negate the spell at any point, but you're sort of curious as to what he'll do.

>>39957656
Bonus on healing checks.

>>39957656
Have you not been paying attention? We get bonuses to combat and healing.

>>39957537
that should be fine once we get him down.
I am very up for it. TO do some anatomy and soul research on him. Tear some of his soul. See about making an enchantment using his soul. What effects it has since he has a different colored soul.
Making a greens our blanket for our son. I hope we have a better/sturdier blanket we can use.

>>39957635
Can we do Hidden paralysis too? Not taking chances.

>>39957689
Hey, he's got a pleasing voice. Maybe we could create something to help him talk/ sing him to sleep or to amuse him.

>>39957669

I thought he was referring to just torture, I stand corrected.

>>39957683
>We get bonuses to combat and healing.
I complety forgot about combat.
We need to know everything about "human" anatomy right now.
Then if we need/want to, do the same for samjan. And we will be more proficiency at it once we do it. So we can make the process faster/less or more painful if required.

>>39957488
Well how about rotting his dick off, he was trying to molest a child after all

Rolled 4, 9, 7 = 20 (3d10)

You simply wait, letting him think that you're powerless to stop him from whatever he wishes to do. As you expected, he decides to use this opportunity to gloat. He pushes you out of the tent and then climbs to his feet, squeezing out after you. You've fallen forward, leaned over in the grass in the same pose you had when you were initially paralyzed. Markos kicks you in the back, hard too. It hurts, but you're incapable of making a noise. You'll survive.

He rains a few more blows down on your back and shoulders, laughing his ass off all the while, before collapsing into the grass next to you. He squeezes your cheeks, adopting a patronizing tone as he speaks to you. “Whassa matter, Darkie? I thought you sandy cunts were supposed to be the world's greatest Vatis?” He slaps you lightly on the cheek. “Why don't you do something? I'm going to screw that little fuck toy of yours. You know all those common girls are sluts, right? How's it feel to stick your dick in some human's sloppy seconds?”

Sheesh, this guy has some issues. Someone's mother didn't hug them enough as a child. He pushes himself to his feet. His pants are half off and his shirt is torn where you'd been grabbing him. Now that his back is turned you negate the paralysis spell, sliding silently to your feet as you draw a dagger from your cloak. He's just starting to duck back into the tent when you grab him by his greasy hair, jerking his head back and pressing the dagger to his throat.
>Vys Pool: (22/[26])

Pressing the blade in just deep enough to draw a thin line of blood. When you speak your voice is calm and composed, uncaring really. “For the record, I would never dirty myself by laying with a human girl.” Well, that's not true. You've already dirtied yourself by laying with a human girl. Not that you're ever going to admit that, to anyone. “Your people are disgusting. You more so than most.”

Now if every we would learn the vys meta

>>39958065
I just attributed it to shit poor medieval nutrition.

His heart is racing, you can see the veins throbbing in his neck. If you pressed down just a little harder on the blade you could end his life. He seems to realize this, judging by the amount he's started sweating and the way his eyes dart to and fro, utterly panicked. “Listen, listen. That... that wasn't-” He stops speaking, apparently at a loss. Perhaps realizing just how severely he's screwed himself over.

Well let's do all the previous suggested stuff.
Paralyze him, rot his dick off and use him as a test subject.
I don't think we should do this in front of the "kid" though...

It really really hurts me to do so, but since he begged us to use him for science we have to grant him his wish. Don't break him, there so much to learn

Guys, we're not doing this in front of her, are we? Unless she wants to watch, of course.

>>39958114

>>39958114

>>39958228
Yeah, I guess we'll do it without her, unless she want's to watch. Gotta start that education now.

By the way, fucking unparalyze Ayylmaoin.

>>39958114
>>You've wanted a test subject for a while. Might as well be him.

>>39958228
No we're not. We don't really want to make her a sociopath by doing that.

Like legit, I am seriously worried we'll let her see it. Don't do that anons, please.

>>39958228
>>39958270
Isnt she from a warrior culture where killing someones husband to marry them is a social norm? She wont give a fuck.

>>39958270
That's like thinking having sex in front of kid will make them sex maniacs.

>>39958270
I am with you on that.
But it's up to her. We tell her to go inside. If she fights us on this. I won't care, because it would be her seeing the person who just tried to RAPE her get his due punishment.

Well how bout this then,
Use him as a live subject for science, cut and dice and all that jam, patch him up afterwards and to prevent any further misconduct cut or rot away his erectile tissue. Leaving him with a fully intact penis with a working urinal duct but permanently unable to "get it up"

>>39958114
>>39958259
I support this action,

>>39958343
Mik probably doesn't have the knowledge to do that kind of thing, it'd be easier to just cut his balls off.

>>39958114
>Paralyze him, leave his fate in Aylin's hands.

>>39958306
Well, she's a kid and so far we could see that she might have the stoic façade we know from Chrys, but underneath that she is (relatively) easily flustered.

>>39958310
I love how the west has managed to make people despise rape so much that they now think it's worse than murder.
Chalk one up to the feminists, I suppose.

>>39958343
It would be easier to just chop off his balls

>>39958343
No, we kill him after.

Well, I guess we're back to the psycho killer Mik phase again.

>>39958412
And humans are not people.
>>39958428
Mik is just as, if not more racist. And if he goes through with the torture, he is also more sadistic.

It was a rape attempt, that deserves death, sure, but not extended deliberate agony.

Deserves has nothing to do with it, this isn't a court of law. He fucked with us and ours so he's gonna get fucked right back.

>>39958375
Ya'know how vets commit suicide more than any other occupation because literally no one can understand the fear, sense of impending death, hopelessness and futility they experienced for years? Ya'know how many of them just give up on trying to live happy, productive civilian lives because they can't forget? You don't.

>>39958471
>And if he goes through with the torture, he is also more sadistic.
Cruel is the word you're looking for, anon. Mik would be sadistic if he wanted to torture him for the sake of getting pleasure, but the way the prompt is written implies that Mik just just sees it as a convenient way to kill two birds with one stone.

>>39958655
Degenerate please.

>>39958375

Psychological damage as >>39958526 said.

Of course. It isn't torture for sadism, it's practicality. A worthless person becomes valuable knowledge.

>>39958766

>>39958711

Torture is an incredibly ineffective way of getting information. Hans Barbie was a shitty interrogator by all accounts.

Torture for sexual reasons (some people like getting stabbed with needles and stuff) seems fine so long as they're consenting.

Otherwise, not really acceptable.

>>39958896
Ah, so torture is okay as long as you really want a thing that isn't yours.
Kinda like how rapists really want to have sex with their victims, you mean?

>>39958913
Who needs tr uth serum when you can rot him eyeballs out if his head. Then heal him and do it again.

>>39958821
Weird and wrong. It implies you're getting off on it, which means you're a nut job. Besides which, sex should always be consensual. There's no practicality to be gained from it that couldn't be gained just through regular 'torture'.

Ok guys let's come to a conclusion here. You're all dumb and inferior to me mkay. You also like monkey dongs.

>>39958933
We can rot his limbs off to the bone from the fingers/toes.

>>39958896
The problem is that you have to be sure that the victim knows the answer. While in principle torture is never okay, it has been done nevertheless, with two different goals:
Inforation: If you torture somebody who e.g. has hidden an abducted child, you just have to apply pain until he tells you where the child is. Same for secret plans in a war.
Confession: But if you try to get a confession (e.g. of somebody being a witch) out of somebody, torture is useless, because people will confess to anything just to stop the pain.

>>39958931
I was just asking, plus We dont really have much moral ground to stand on at this point what with the assassination and setting a town on fire.
>>39958979
If it was useless people wouldnt have used it.

>>39958308
No, but it lets them know it's okay to have sex, you sick pervert.

Add on the fact that Torture is really bad at getting Information.

>>39959010

It was invented because of Negative Reinforcement but it doesn't work because it's used as a Punishment factor. On the whole, there's more reasons besides it being "wrong" that it's a bad idea.

>>39959121

To be fair, it's not like he actually knows anything of value.

>>39959010
Useless from the point of truth. Of course it was useful for other things: A confession of being a witch legitimizes burning somebody (or convict, or whatever), legitimizing the existence of the witch hunter at the same time.

>>39959085
True. Even if the victim knows the truth they may tell something other.

>>39959103
I don't think there was ever another plan.

>>39958935
>It implies you're getting off on it
This could be the case, or it could be the case that the rape is a calculated decision as to what you believe will cause the most discomfort and pain. You don't know the motivational intricacies of the hypothetical torturer.

Don't really have much more to add except it's really strange for you to so staunchly draw a line in the sand for rape then turn around and defend torture in such an incredulous tone, as well as claim murder can be justified. Please clarify that by the way, murder has a very specific meaning and is not synonymous with kill.

>>39959136
None of those involve conflict though.

>>39959016

So guys, I had an idea.

What if runes are just rearranging the lines of reality to get the effect desired in a more permanent form, then just casting vys itself?

Hence why we could create our own runes if we don't know them.

>>39959094
Oh shit, so what are we testing him for? If it's to find out why his soul is green why don't we just ask our Master using our magic phone?

So, expanding on this, we may be able to discover how to make runes of spells by meditating and watching the strings of reality as spells are cast to see how they react.

We went through this before. To put it in Soma's favorite RPG's terms, magic is opening up the console and fucking with shit. Enchantment is modding shit in that you made up.

I barely have time to read the quest, let me be.

You place a hand on his shoulder and channel vys into a paralysis spell. He locks up, and just to make sure he doesn't try anything you cast a leech spell. His resevers slowly drain away, replenishing your own reserves. He isn't particularly powerful, and the two spells he's already cast seem to have depleted a fair portion of his vys, but soon he's barely conscious and standing still as a statue, just in front of Aylin's tent. You shoulder him to the side and he falls into the grass, allowing you to duck inside the tent.
>Vys Pool: (26/[26])

You channel a manipulate paralysis spell into the tips of your fingers, feeling the flesh go dead just as you tap Aylin on the leg. She scrambles into a sitting position, her hands rising to cover her chest. She stares at you, and then tries to get a glimpse past you. Probably to see if Markos is still alive. You're the first to speak. “Are you okay? Did he hurt you at all?”

She's silent for a few moments longer before starting to straighten out her clothing. When she speaks, her voice is surprisingly calm. “No, he didn't. The incompetent fool was too weak to spread my legs, let alone soil me. Is he still alive? I saw a blade.”

You nod your head. “He's alive for now. I planned to experiment on him for a while. His soul is interesting, it's green where as most are shades of yellow. I want to figure out why. If you'd like, after I've finished with him I'll leave his fate in your hands.”

She doesn't really seem to grasp what you've just said, waving you off. “That's fine. I want him to die by my hand. So long as you keep him alive long enough for me to drive a knife through his throat I will be content.”

(1/2)

>>39959909
Outlander

You forgot how bloodthirsty her people are. You suppose it makes sense she'd want to kill the man herself. “I can agree to those terms. I'll tell you once I've finished and let you do as you will.” That agreement reached, you duck out of the tent and leave her to compose herself. In the mean time, you debate what to do with Markos.

He's just laying there, barely conscious and paralyzed. You suppose you can experiment on him right here and now. However, it might be best to take him somewhere a little more private. You don't really think stripping his soul down to its base elements will be bloody, but you've also been toying with the idea of dissection.
