You're nearly there.

Your group stands in the shadow of a large mountain, atop which sits the Northern Air Temple. Now, the only challenge that remains is getting to the top of the mountain. Doyu has volunteered to take everyone up on Gava, but Lantana refuses to leave Pengsong behind, which complicates things.

"We'll find a way up," she says with total confidence. "Just as soon as the sun comes back up."

It's sunset, meaning you'll have to spend a final night camping at the bottom of the mountain, then find a way up in the morning. Lantana seems sure that Pengsong can be brought up, but according to Doyu, there aren't any good trails to the top. The Air Nomads travel up by Sky Bison, and pilgrims either find a sympathetic Air Nomad to give them a ride, or brave the treacherous climb to the top.

It looks like you and your friends will have to use the latter method, but Lantana seems really unconcerned. In fact, she seems to be in a very good mood. She moves with a spring in her step and begins to set up camp, creating tents using her Earthbending. Doyu watches her with a smile on his face, but a bit of confusion on his face.

There's no need for anybody to keep watch, with both Pengsong and Gava present. Everyone is free to go to be when they wish.

>>B. Talk to Lantana

>>766451
>>766504
As the others begin readying themselves to go to sleep for the night, you walk over to Lantana, who regards you with a smile.

"We're almost there," she tells you happily. "Just a simple climb up the mountain, and we'll be at the Air Temple."

>A. Simple?

>C. Something else

>>A. Simple?
Simple is not the same as easy.

>>766550
>>B. Ask if she has any ideas for getting up there
We're both earthbenders. There's no reason we can't just make our own trails.

>>766566
>>766571
"Do you have any ideas for getting up there?" you ask her.

She nods. "Sure. Remember how we moved that Goat Gorilla before? We could probably move Pengsong up the mountain the same way, or use our Earthbending to make an easier trail. It shouldn't be too hard, it'll just take a while, so we should wait until we have plenty of daylight."

She turns away from you, staring up at the mountain. "I can't believe I'm going to see an Air Nomad temple. I've always wondered what they're like."

>A. You bet it's amazing

>B. You can't wait to find out

>C. You wonder if the Air Nomads will mind you and the others who can't learn Airbending being there

>D. You're just looking forward to some peace

"Wonder if they have any food that can be only found in their temple's location."

>>766724
>>766689
>>766685
"I'm just looking forward to some peace," you tell her.

"Yeah, it'll be nice not having to worry about someone coming to kill us while we're trying to sleep," she says as casually as if she were discussing there being no rain. "And hopefully, when my training's done, we can take care of Kalana."

She turns toward you, a serious look on her face. "Thanks again, you saved me."

>A. She's saved you plenty of times

>B. What are friends for?

>C. You'll always protect her

"You've saved me plenty of times," you point out, drawing an amused chuckle from the girl as she reflects on your adventures.

"I guess that's true," she admits. "We've pulled each other out of plenty of danger, haven't we?"

She gives you a warm smile. "We make a good team, Sei. I'm glad I found you, and I'm glad to have you with me, and not just because you've saved my life a few times."

"I'll always protect you," you promise her.

Her smile fades just a bit. "Sei, I appreciate that, really. But please, don't make promises you can't keep."

"I've done a pretty good job of it so far," you tell her with a cheeky grin.

"Only because I've been keeping you out of trouble," she replies with a smirk. "You need someone watching your back all the time or you do something stupid."

"Like what?" you ask.

"Like staying in your village when I told you there was an army coming," she reminds you. "Not the best survival instincts."

She chuckles. "But, I guess that's what makes you so good to have around; you never run away. I know I can always count on you to have my back."

The sound of someone clearing their throat grabs your attention, and you turn to see Sansha with her new blade gripped in her right hand.

"Come on, Sei," she tells you. "I'm going to teach you how to sword fight."

"Alright," you tell her. "Sounds great."

Lantana yawns, stretching as she looks between you and Sansha. "You two have fun. I'm going to get some sleep."

As she turns and walks toward her tent, she cautions you not to overdo it, as the two of you are sure to have some work to do tomorrow. With that, she vanishes into her tent, leaving you and Sansha to your training.

"Alright," Sansha says. "I take it you don't have too much experience with sword combat, so tonight we're going to focus on helping you improve. We can worry about me fighting benders another night."

She draws her old sword with her free hand, dropping into a fighting stance.

"No bending," she tells you. "Only weapons."

She remains rooted in place, inviting you to take the first action.

Rushing right at her would be foolish, and you doubt that standing on the defensive would turn out much better. You're at a clear disadvantage against Sansha; after all, she's an experienced sword fighter, and you've barely used a sword in your life.

Still, maybe you can do something just a bit different and catch her by surprise. Gripping the sword you took from the hunter, you prepare to make your move.

"Go on," Sansha encourages, a challenge in her eyes. Surely, she doesn't expect you to win, but she does expect you to give it your all.

You won't disappoint her.

Still, disappointment is what you see in her eyes as you rush forward, and she readies herself to swat aside a sloppy and desperate offensive from an opponent who clearly has no idea what he's doing. But, when you suddenly shift directions, speedily moving to her left and striking from the side, you see her eyes widen in surprise as she brings her blade to parry your strike.

"Not bad," she tells you with a laugh. "Way to use your head!"

You're off to a good start, but you still aren't going to beat her head on. Moving back, you get an idea for your next action.

Sansha readies her blades, turning to you and beginning to step forward. If she has the opportunity to go on the defensive, you're as good as beaten.

As she advances, however, you rob her of the initiative by slashing at the ground, throwing up dirt that hits her right in the eyes. The girl cries out in surprise and pain, quickly falling back and attempting to wipe the dirt from her eyes. You start to advance toward her, but she points her blade in your direction.

"Don't think that I'm helpless," she warns. "This is the best time to attack, but don't rush in blindly expecting a victory."

>A. Rush in and attack!

>B. Try moving around her

I don't remember what that is, but i remember it was bad.
Can we stab it in the eyes?

Wait, the words "face stealing" come to mind.
I'm not sure that's correct, but eye-stabbing feels like the way to go.

It's a good word of warning, and you do heed it, but probably not in a way that she expects. You seemingly ignore her words, rushing forward right toward her blade, only to duck and roll past it at the last moment, getting up nice and close before pointing your blade at her stomach.

Sansha stares down at you, making no effort to hide the shock on her face at your victory. You half expect her to get angry and defensive, but instead, she grins ear to ear and lets out a laugh.

"Great job!" she tells you, lowering her weapons. "You fought smarter, not harder. That's the mark of a great warrior."

You lower your sword and rise to stand in front of her, the two of you only a few inches apart. Sansha gives you a playful punch on the shoulder before stepping back.

"I just need to train you in the basics, and then between that and your Earthbending, you'll be a real force to be reckoned with," she tells you.

If we need dem basics, let's train dem basics.
*keep some pre-shaped stone bullets in a pouch or one of our pockets
*make the stone bullets pointy and aerodynamic so they pierce instead of striking bluntly
*work on compressing our bullets down out of larger stones to increase their mass, and therefore the energy they impact with

>>E. Thank her
>>B. Get some sleep
Long day tomorrow. We need to get at least some sleep.

"Thanks," you say to her. "So, should we keep training?"

Sansha seems pleased to hear that you want to continue, and nods in affirmation. And so, the two of you resume your training.

For the next hour or so, the two of you go over the basics of sword combat. She drills you through basic strikes and parries, and you seem to get the hang of it rather well. Sansha, at least, seems pleased by your efforts.

Finally, she puts her blades aside, giving you a look of approval.

"Good work today," she tells you with a kind smile. "I think you'll be able to put your new sword to good use."

>A. Thank her again for helping you

>>768568

>>768469

"Thanks again for the help," you say to her.

"No problem," she tells you. "We're a team, and teammates help each other."

"Well then, next time, I'll help you learn to fight Earthbenders," you promise.

Giving you one last smile, Sansha wishes you a good night and heads back to her tent, preparing for some much needed sleep. Mauya and Doyu seem to have turned in for the night as well, which leaves you with the choice of standing alone in the dark, or getting some sleep yourself.

Of course, you choose the latter, making your way to the tent Lantana created for you, climbing into your bedroll, and closing your eyes before slipping into blissful sleep.

It's impossible to say how long you're asleep, all you know is that, after a time, a sound jolts you back to consciousness.

A scream.

You rush out of your tent, expecting to find yourself under attack, but instead all you find is a terrified looking woman running toward your camp. Her brown hair is tied in a messy bun which seems to have some twigs stuck in it, and her clothes have some distinct rips, as if some sort of creature tore into them.

She stops in her tracks when she sees the two large animals in your camp, her face turning pale as she begins to back away slowly.

"What's going on out here?" Mauya asks, emerging from her tent.

Lantana and Sansha climb out as well, while Doyu leaps over Gava and comes to join the rest of you.

"W-who are you?" the terrified woman stammers, continuing to back away.

>A. Ask who she is

>B. Introduce yourself

>C. Ask what she's running from

>D. Don't say anything

>>768593
>>768597
"Travelers," you answer. "I'm Sei."

"I'm Lantana," the Avatar introduces, her tone calm and friendly. You can see the concern in her eyes, and you get the feeling that, one way or another, you're going to end up having to help this woman.

"I'm Sansha," the warrior girl introduces, hands resting cautiously on the hilts of her swords.

"Mauya," the Waterbender introduces

"I'm Doyu," the Airbender tells her.

"Those tattoos.." the woman breathes. "You're an Air Nomad!"

Doyu nods.

"What are you running from?" you cut in.

The woman turns her attention back to you, her eyes filled with terror that makes you flinch. She's clearly seen something horrible, but you really aren't expecting what she tells you.

"A monster!" she wails. "A terrible monster!"

Mauya looks at her with disbelief. "A monster?"

The woman nods frantically, and you can see Mauya still looks far from convinced. Sansha appears to be listening, though not entirely believing the woman either, while Doyu and Lantana both look quite interested.

>A. Ask her to start from the beginning

>B. Ask about the monster

>C. Don't say anything; let Lantana take it from here

>D. Something else

>>768682
>C.

>C

>>768682
>C

>>768682
>C. Don't say anything; let Lantana take it from here

>>768682
>>B. Ask about the monster
Could you be more specific? As in a description.

>>768693
>>768699
"Please, start from the beginning, ma'am," Lantana requests.

The woman takes a moment to compose herself, apologizing profusely for her dramatic entrance and what must sound like the ravings of a lunatic. Once she's done with that, she explains that she's part of a large group of people who fled their villages when Jungo's army began heading East. They came into the mountains here in search of a place to settle, figuring that they could carve out a meager living, and that Jungo's army probably wouldn't care enough to try and conquer this area.

"But strange things started happening soon after we got here," the woman explains. "First it was strange noises in the night. We thought it was some of the local animals, and ignored it, but every night, they got closer and closer. Finally, some of the men went out to hunt for whatever it was, but they never came back."

"So, then it is some kind of animal?" Sansha asks.

"We thought so," the woman tells her. "But then one night, we saw a figure standing at the edge of the settlement. It was walking on two legs, and it had these glowing green eyes."

"Did you try fighting it?" Sansha asks.

"We threw spears, rocks, whatever we could," the woman explains. "Everything seemed to pass right through it."

"Hmm...sounds like a spirit to me," Doyu comments.

"A spirit?" Lantana asks.

"Maybe," the Airbender tells her. "I've never actually seen one, but this sounds like something out of the stories I've heard."

>A. Perfect; the Avatar is supposed to be the bridge between this world and the spirit world. She should be able to do something

>B. Ask the woman where the rest of the people she was with are

>C. Keep quiet

>D. Something else

>>768844
>B.

>>768844
>B. Ask the woman where the rest of the people she was with are

Knowing our luck, B's just going to get her upset because her everybody she knows is deeeeaaad.

>>B. Ask the woman where the rest of the people she was with are

>>768859
>>768884
"Where are the rest of the people you were with?" you ask the woman.

She looks down, holding back a sob. "That thing attacked tonight, dragged everyone off one by one. I'm the only one left."

Lantana steps forward, placing a comforting hand on the woman's shoulder.

"We'll put a stop to this," she promises.

The woman looks at her, surprised and more than a little confused. "That's very brave of you, but what can you do against something like this?"

"Lantana here is the Avatar," Doyu explains, admiration in his tone. "She's the bridge between our world and the Spirit World. If anybody can take care of a problem like this, it's her."

"The Avatar?" the woman gasps in disbelief, staring at your friend with wide eyes.

Lantana nods. "Where were you staying?'

The woman gives directions, but begs you not to make her go back there.

"You can stay here," Lantana tells her. "Someone stay with her."

>A. Volunteer

>B. Be Quiet

>C. Mauya should stay

>D. Doyu should stay

>E. Sansha should stay

>F. Something else

>>768974
>>B. Be Quiet
Let's see who volunteers.

>B
Let her show she's a leader and take the lead

>>768974
>B.

>>768999
>>769002
You stay quiet, and Lantana seems to give some serious thought as to who to leave behind.

"Doyu, you know about spirits, so if we mess this up, you'd probably be the best person to keep this woman safe," Lantana tells the Air Nomad. "Keep an eye on her, and make sure Pengsong and Gava are okay."

He gives her a nod. "Got it. Be careful, okay?"

She smiles at him. "Right."

Lantana looks at the rest of you. "Alright, let's go find this monster."

>End Updates

That's all for tonight, anons, I hope you all had fun

Follow me @qmdralo to see when I'm running this or Dragonball Quest

As always, I will stick around for a while

>>769058
Thanks for running Som. I liked this thread, I feel like it's all going to come tumbling down the next thread.

>>769058
Hey SOM new poster here, i already caught up with the quest up to this point, just wanna say it's great and i'll try me best to keep up.

Also, any advice on starting a quest myself?

>>769085
Maybe, maybe not. I do plan to give you guys a few sessions to relax once you reach the Air Temple, though

>>769058
SOM won't kill Lantana
No balls

>>769058
>facing a spirit monster
>leave behind guy who knows about spirits
I understand she wants to protect the woman, but if we want to fix this we need the knowledge with us. Stupid call by Latana. We need to point this out.

>>769058
Night Som. Thanks for running.

>>769089
Glad you enjoy it, anon, as for my advice

/qst/ is a slow board, and as a new QM, you will likely have a few early threads with little participation. The first real test of a QM is to push through that and keep with it. The longer you keep running, the more people you will pick up.

Also, you will make mistakes, and your players will call you out on them. Do not be discouraged, just learn from them.

And most importantly, have fun. There's no real point in QMing if you aren't enjoying it.

>>769097
Had you failed your rolls last thread, she'd be dead right now

>>769098
She's hoping for Avatar instincts or something

>>769100
Thanks for playing

>>769058
SOM, you better use this next time when the next thread starts.

>>769089
What were you thinking of running?
>>769113
She got rockblocked I guess

>>769113
Thanks man means a lot, also sorry for all the questions but how do you come up with ideas for what universe to put your quest in?

>>769113
Whats Kalana up to? Is she thinking on who she needs to get rid of first between us and Lantana in order for her plan to succeed?

>>769118
Cause Supernatural, right?

>>769140
I mostly just go with stuff I like and know fairly well, but I really admire QMs who can create their own settings.

And no need to apologize, I'm actually flattered that you think highly enough of me to ask me for advice.

>>769130
Haha

>>769153
She's changing her approach, but keeping some aspects the same

>>769130
I got a lot of vague and general ideas so I might try to narrow them down by making it making a plan for each and pick which one I'd enjoy writing for.

>>769161
That really the best idea, running something you don't enjoy ends badly for everyone

>>769165
True, true

>>769165
>>769171
I got mad respect for SOM for his creativity too, I fear if I plan too much, I'll circle right back into railroading

>>769161
Probably do a one shot of something else that you know and are interested as well in order to get the feel of QMing for a bit since it will give some advice on things you might have to focus on if you decide to QM something you want to run for sometime.

>>769185
Yeah, that is a trap that you can fall into, and I did a lot on early quests. You can plan a world very meticulously, and brainstorm potential events and storylines, but you have to account for the fact that the anons can throw you a curveball at any moment.

>>769185
Rather than plan too much, plan for various outcomes and what would happen in that circumstance. You can't plan for everything though

>>769205
>>769207
>>769213
Thanks for the advice and support

Also, do people here care if two people are running two quest in the same universe? Like 2 Dragon Ball Quest?

>>769272
Nope
There's like 4 naruto quests running, a few pokemon and other various quests.
Also have you figured out what system you plan on using, regarding rolls/skill checks?

>>769272
It's happened many times before, people generally don't seem to care much

>>769272
And don't be surprised for anons to grab a write in that you never expected to get votes and win the voting. You give them a DC because deciding to parachute onto a moving jet should have one, and then they nat 20 or whatever dice you use.

>>769277
Damn no one here gives a fuck don't they?

I might use degree of success and failure so I don't just have two stock situations waiting in the wings, although the wait between post would be long
