Well shit boys! It's Audit time!

The princesses look so lovely! And prince is rather fetching too!

==================================================

We went on a bit of a spending splurge but.. I think it was worth it. A few changes have been made to the dungeon and we got new princesses.

>>1124794
The dungeon is getting pretty dungeon-y. I like it.

>>1124794
The token tracker is a very very useful thing. I am really glad we have that now!

>>1124774
Where is my sexy little Death Knight?

>>1124794

Ah, right, we were being invaded by the bushy hair lady and that dickish dude last time.

>>1124810
If you're refering to Alex, that's a good point. Guess she didn't get the papers filed for her new job yet.

>>1124814
I fear for these heroes after the Moon Elf fiasco.

>>1124774
FINALLY

So right now what rooms do we have and how our resort/dungeon works?

>>1124774
HUZZAH! IT RETURNS!

>>1124815
I wouldn't say "Moon Elf" was a complete fiasco (we did get a 5 star review), but we certainly made the dungeon harder than it needed to be, which may also attract more high leveled characters to attempt it in the future.

Didn't we decide to have a difficulty setting or something? Perhaps have the option of making the dungeon easier but to decrease the rarity of certain drops? We want this rare-item farmer to feel like he has some agency even as he has to do the dungeon over and over again before getting the slime core.

>>1124799
We've been working hard on it, have we not?

>>1124807
I figured it would be nice to keep track of such things.

>>1124790
Oh boy. I'll review these when I've got some down time.

>>1124814
Yeeep. Let's see how they're doing.
=============================================

"Remember..." Says the man in the mask, "I need the Slime Core. If you roll Need on it our contract is null and you will receive nothing from me."

"You're paying me more than it's market value anyway. I'm not into minion collecting. It's yours." The adventurer says. One hand is holding onto what looks like four katana.

"Good... The last thing I need is coming so close to my goal and having a typical stupid adventurer mess it up for me."

"..."

>>1124837
SHE'S GOT FOUR SWORDZ

>>1124837
Yeeaaahhh, he's not gonna have a good time.

>>1124837

So a deku scrub and an anime.

>>1124837
OH are we finally getting a villainous fighter.

How interesting.

>>1124837
Well the good news about these guys is they'll run the dungeon as many times as it takes to get that rare drop. Bad news is they may be hard to kill to make a profit on. We'll have to see how things go.

>>1124834
I say it was a fiasco because people couldn't let Moon Elf do her thing. They wanted to murderhobo an adventurer as opposed to letting her do it herself.

We're in the industry to entertain, not just get gold cheaply.

>>1124837
>>1124845
Yeah see, this is what I'm worried about...

>Review
The only things that you most need to look up is the items the princesses could give.

I'm really happy with the Marsh Rod, Manifold Bow, and my favourite item name, the Magmallet

>>1124837
Ruuude

Remember everyone. We win more making the dungeon enjoyable that making it hard

>>1124837
But where's the fedora and the trench coat?

>The pair step into the first room.
>Ronin looks around, her posture showing that she is a woman of action, always on the alert. Chemist follows behind her, arms beneath his cloak, gripping something that Mary can't see.

"It's pretty."

"Better than the outside." Chemist says.

>Ms Bloops pops out and burbles a happy greeting at the pair.

"!!! Zantetsuken!" Ronin screams, slicing the slime's head off in one blow.

2/3

>>1124867
We win either way. We either get casual shits or hardcore fuckers who want to play Dark Souls and Dwarf Fortress.

All this "Stop making it difficult, let them have fun." bullshit gets on my nerves. Let the thread go where the thread goes.

>>1124877
MS. BLOOOOOOPS
NOOOOOOOOOOO
ACTIVATE HARD MODE RIGHT NOW

>>1124877
do...
do slimes care about that?
At all?

OK, hard mode it is.

>>1124877
pretty sure that just did nothing. missed the core and doing a " slice in half then wait until clocking sword back in for them to fall apart" also fails due to slime just sticking back together after being cut. basically, giga sharp swords are even worse vs slimes then dull ones.

>>1124877
oh god damn it....anon's aren't going to let this one go...AGAIN.

>>1124883
Do you think that Ms. Bloops remembers every time that she's been killed? Do we have a dungeon therapist? We should hire a dungeon therapist.

>>1124877
I'm mad but no hard mood yet, let them run into the cleric first

>>1124867
Agreed. We want them to feel like they're having fun even as they run it again and again trying to get the rare item.

>>1124877
Maybe we put in difficulty settings with variable risk-reward?

Or perhaps we should make completionist rewards for people who do the dungeon a number of different ways?

>>1124877
"sigh" - I guess we can do hard mode and have killing Ms. Bloops be the trigger for that, but if we then get the dark souls "we want the hardest dungeon ever" types having killing her trigger high difficulty would encourage people killing her.

Personally, I'd really rather just let it go. Everyone's got their own style and we should try to cater to the customer.

>>1124888
luckily no. lesser slimes have goldfish like memories. so every time she reforms it's just her base personality.

>>1124877
That girl is a little jumpy

>>1124877
>"!!! Zantetsuken!" Ronin screams,

Is this Ronin a scaredy cat? Did Miss Bloops accidentally terrify someone?

>>1124877
Bloops, stay on the katana. Prevent her from drawing that one.

>>1124899
>>1124903
Maybe that's her gimmick that will make her endearing to the anons...I hope...

>The head lands with a wet -splat- on the floor. Ms. Bloops picks it up and holds onto it. Ronin is ready to attack again when the Chemist puts an arm out in front of her.

"You idiot, she is harmless. Do you not recall what you've read about this place?"

"...Oh, right. That's her?"

"Indeed. Hello, slime. We did not me to harm you."

"-slime noises-."

>The Chemist pulls out a piece of candy.

"A peace offering, to you. What do you say you help us out?"

Hmm
Should I have her do anything?

>>1124909
I'm okay with Bloops helping out until they get to the Cleric room. Then they're on their own.

>>1124909
This shouldn't be as cute as it is. Why is this so cute?

>>1124909
Did we ever give Ms. Bloops the stranger danger talk?

>>1124911
That sounds good.

>>1124911
Yeah that seems to work for me.

>>1124909
Ms. Bloops can't talk, so just have her point out stuff in the dungeon until Cleric
like so >>1124911

>>1124909
Bloops helps them until cleric room. pointing things out and such. Also she make happy blurbles.

>>1124909
I am interested in seeing if ms. bloops even CAN help them.
Let's see what she can do?

>>1124909
>>1124911
Down with this.

Besides, everyone knows that Ronin is going to trigger the explodey in the maze.

Then Bloops can happily blurble goodbye and head back to her fountain to play.

>>1124909
also, does that sucker have A SATURN RING HOVERING AROUND IT

WHAT IS THIS ADVANCED CANDY TECH

>>1124911
If you are good with the cute slime we are good with you.

>>1124909
Reject it and crush them.

>>1124909
ASSIMILATE THE CANDY!
Also his glove.

>>1124909
Guys... we can get a Candy Rune! This adventurer is just handing out loot!

>>1124924
You mean happily sacrifice herself by hugging Explodey, right?

>>1124940
bloops calming aura lets her hug explodey safely.

>>1124940
Unlikely. She'll probably make a very loud noise and...well, you know how it goes. Shame about the oil.

>>1124911
Sure. Let's go with this. Being nice has benefits.

>>1124956
Didn't we already have an established benefit for being nice to Miss Bloops?

>>1124964
That was because during that run, Ms. Bloops wasn't set as a dungeon creature. So if she got ganked, she'd have died permanently.

>>1124964
Well aside from a bonus token, it's never been truly defined. Some have suggested that she help out a tiny bit as well.

>Mary tells Ms. Bloops to help them out a bit. She's not entirely certain if her directions are even understood but that doesn't stop the slime from grabbing the candy and devouring it.

>1 Candy Rune Obtained

>She makes some slime noises and leaves the fountain, heading off and out of the room, occasionally looking behind herself to make sure she's being followed. The pair pause to glance at each other before following the slime.

"Can we trust her?" Ronin asks

"It's the first room. If we fail here we can just try again."

>They enter the Comfy Slime room. Curi peers over the edge and waves at the comfy slimes. They wave back at her. She makes a few noises at them, apparently engrossed in a bit of conversation with them. The slimes pooled at the bottom nod and climb up the sides of the pit, binding together and forming a semi-solid bridge across. Curi just slides across.

... How many times has she done this?

>The pair are able to cross now with little difficulty.

>Now they enter the maze.

>Curi seems to know exactly where she's going, leading the pair with confidence. They follow her route, avoiding many of the dead ends and Explodey clones.
>When they do finally encounter one Curi makes some soothing slime noises and passes by it.

>Then, they see Metal Slime.

Oh... We can attach loot and stuff to that thing. What should we add to it?

>>1124964
was a token for not killing her. being ACTIVELY nice? no we haven't made a reward.

>>1125010
Big piles of gold, some rarer trinkets like, idunno, mounts and goo brand junction material, runs away IMMEDIATELY ROUND 1

>>1125010
Something rare! Like a knock off slime core so they have incentive to chase it.

>>1125010
can drop one of these:
slime steel, crafting ingredient to forge custom slime gear

metal slime medallion, +2 defense

4 slimecrown tokens

>>1125010
>Curi
you mean Mrs. Bloops?

>>1125010
Lotsa gold.

Also, is Ms. Bloops' first name Curi, too?

>>1125010
7 tokens?

>>1125010

> Bloops became Curi. PANIC!
> Have the slime duck back into the comfy slime room. Since they didn't pass the obstacles the first time, it'll be hard for them to chase it.

>>1125017
Backing the tokens, add an additional 75 gold too.

>>1125010
I'd probably stick to gold or tokens unless we have some extra loot lying around or can generate some for free.

>>1125010
>>1125023

As for valuables, a rare chance at a mini slime core (1%) with various other chances at slime components and/or 50-75 gold.

>>1125027
No mini slime cores. Thats for Curi, and potentially other bosses.

However, a decent amount of gold and some tokens should be sufficient. 2 tokens and 100 gold would work well.

>>1125017
This sounds good.

Let's see exactly how tough the metal slime is before we go too crazy on the rare rewards. Hopefully they'll think this is worth it.

>>1125052

I thought the goal was that it acts like a crystal lizard, leading people into danger.

>>1125065
Ah, it's been a long time since I last read over the quest. I think you're right. My bad.

>>1125065
It acts like a Dragon Quest Metal Slime, gives out a buttload of tokens, has stupid high defense, can roam the dungeon, and runs away at the first sign of trouble.

Leading them into traps is a side effect of trying to tempt them into chasing the Metal Slime for sweet sweet lewt.

>>1125065
Metal Slimes in dragon quest have a huge defense and run away but if you kill them you recive a TON of exp.

"... What are you doing, woman!? Get it!"

"What!?"

"It's a Metal Slime! Attack!"

"Oh, right!" She inhales deeply, drawing one of her blades. ""Flame-eating sword, swipe away-"

>The Metal Slime flees.

"After it!"

>The duo run after it, leaving the maze and entering the room with the Cleric Plant.

"Greetings," She says, "And welcome to the Slimecrown Citadel. Here you can rest and recuperate while you prepare for the challenges ahead. In order to-"

"MOVE!" Ronin says as she shoves Cleric Plant aside.

>The Metal Slime makes some noises as it runs in circles around the room.

"In.. In order to fight Cur-" She tries to continue but is knocked over again when Metal Slime dashes under her skirt. She pulls herself back up. "IN ORDER TO-"

>Metal Slime hits her in the face. The force of Ronin tackling into her knocks her flat on her back.

>They continue chasing the slime, throwing open a door it slides under and entering a room.

"Oh," Slime Prince says, "Hello there. We weren't expecting you so soon."

"Well..." The Prince says, "I suppose it is the older brother's duty to protect his sisters. This citadel is our home, Curi is our mother, and we are all that is left to protect the land. We will not let you reach her."

"...... Do you understand what's going on?" Chemist asks.

"I think we may have skipped a cutscene..."

"Well, this is clearly a thing we need to defeat in order to progress." He clears his throat. "Listen up, you two." He reaches into his cloak and pulls out a bottle. "You slimes can hardly feel pain. I could cut you into pieces and it wouldn't register. But, one splash with this and you will suffer and suffer and suffer until you dissolve. Now, we can avoid all that if you just give me what is needed to take on the Boss."

>>1125178
Heheh. We've got a trick up our sleeves and we aren't giving UP THAT EASILY!
FIGHT THEM PALADIN AND PRINCE!

>>1125178
Now seems like a fun time for Paladin to lay down some rules, now isn't it?

Paladin: Ban shady potions like that.

>>1125178
Right this way! (leads him directly to bonus boss)

>>1125178
paladin law: no splash weapons.

>>1125178
QUICK!

Ask him if he concocted a solution to every slime type we have because an oil slime is gonna need a different chemical then a mirthal type slime like the paladin

>>1125138
Isn't Cleric Plant a dude? Oh well, poor Cleric Plant.

>>1125207
>>1125210
If you wanted to be a REAL bastard, you'd ban the Use of All Items

>>1125210
well, he is giving an opportunity to surrender instead on throwing the flask directly. I think that he is pretty good.

But he showed his secret weapon too soon.

>>1125178
ban poisons and debuffing potions

"if you wish to reach Curi then you must beat me in honorable combat. So I decree it, so it must be"

>>1125210
>>1125193
>>1125192
>>1125188
This chemist seemingly likes masks, are we spiteful enough to declare a ban on face coverings?

>>1125178
I think we need to Audit that. Can Mary cast Audit without being in the same room? If that's not an option then refuse anyway, and try to avoid getting hit by whatever that is. (it could be a bluff, though)

If it really is something horrible, an affected slime could self-destruct by ripping out its own core and smashing it. Better that than get essentially tortured to death.

>>1125204
good thing we have lava slimes that contain no water.

>>1125219
Don't pretty it up

He's threatening a torturous death.

His fighting style is using potions, you can't just ban anything that could beat us, it's just going to get us bad reviews, and is bullshit.

>>1125178

> All poisons will afflict the attacker instead (at double potency)

>>1125246
ban status effects, that way he can still use bombs and shit but no DOT dissolving effect.

>>1125246
He isn't trying to fight, he's literally saying "If you don't let me get to the Boss for free I'll torture you to death". Fuck him.

Please wait warmly.

>>1125246
To be fair, if we banned splash potions, he's not alone. This is why it's a party.

If you are banned from one technique, try another. It's to get people to try and diversify and work together.

That's what I like about RSP

>>1125255
good idea

>>1125264
Plus even if they did only have the one way to fight, the 'Recommended' aspect of the laws still gives a fighting chance even if its a bit out of your comfort zone.

>>1125282
I'm still waiting for the day when we declare that shouting your attacks is the recommended aspect.

Alternatively, communication being banned.

Both of them would be wonderful.

Suggestion: ban splash DAMAGE

>>1125292
oh god. We need to do the shouting attacks thing when we get a cute adventurer like the psyker.

"Judgement time!" Royal Slime Paladin shouts.

>New laws are put into effect for the remainder of the battle with steep penalties for not following the laws.

"You... My poisons..."

"Huh. That's a really interesting mechanic." Ronin says.

"Don't admire them..! Go! This is what I pay you for! Distract them while I make some acid."

"Yeah, yeah." She draws and wields her four blades, one in each hand, one held by her teeth, and one with her tongue wrapped around it.

>Paladin slime draws her own blade. The price is hiding behind her. All the while, Chemist is crafting something.

If yes, then the prince shall fight. Get in there!

>>1125355
prince attack alchemist while paladin fights ronin.

>>1125346
Paladin is to protect the prince to the best of her ability, but to not yield to Ronin.

Ergo, use paladin spells to buff defenses and resistances to both Paladin and Prince, but use great powerful strokes to cut into Ronin and to try and get at alchemist. Prince is to assist, but sparingly, and to RSP's endless chastising.

>>1125346
Paladin tanks Ronin, Prince in his infinite wisdom goes around and attacks the chemist before his concoction can be brewed.

>>1125346
Aim to knock the sword being held by his teeth out of her mouth so she bites her own tongue!

>>1125358
This sounds fun, and annoying to the chemist.

>>1125346
PaladinSlime Fight defensively and keep Ronin occupied
While The Prince prevents Alchemist from mixing up anything

>>1125361
He's no mini boss but he should be a decent enough fighter. Of course, that probably doesn't mean much against Ronin so he's should be best off getting in Chemist's way.

>>1125346
have one of them ask HOW DOES THAT WORK

>>1125346
>The price

Paladin! Focus on Defense! Use the Military issued Slime-CQC to fight defensively to protect the prince!
>Prince draws upon his royal heritage! Although he is somewhat lacking in power, he makes up for it in his skills in Commanding the slime army! Have a retinue of Archer Slimes, Magic Slimes, Mud slimes and Psion Slimes appear!
Disrupt the Alchemist!

>>1125346
Wow, she is surprisingly good at holding multiple swords in her mouth.

Kinky

>>1125395
Yeah how does she get her tongue past her clenched teeth and the other sword hilt?

>>1125427
Clearly she took a feat at a previous level. Other swordmasters laughed at her, but then she out dueled them.

>>1125346

Umm... Her fighting style seems like it would end painfully if she took a hit to the head. More to the point, you could easily shoot water directly down her throat through her open mouth.

Maybe one of the swords has a tongue in the hilt for her sword? Maybe she's missing a bunch of her lower teeth on one side?

>>1125427
as long as her tongue is thinner then a swords hilt she should be fine, as to why her tongue is so long and flexable you got me

>>1125395
Clearly one of the swords is a talking sword that talks for Ronin. Very handy for Ronin when she needs to talk with 2 swords in her mouth, but the downside is the talking sword often goes off tangent, talks in a grating voice and swears like a sailor.

>>1125358
Also have the metal slime go molest the chemist. Shatter their goggles and get inside their mask.

If only someone could cast a spell to heat up Metal Slime, and have him go down Chemist's pants.

>>1125437
>>1125427
see, what I think is that if we get her to tell us how it works, she will bite her tongue.

>>1125437
She's clearly talking with heart and burning passion!

Personally I say just let Metal Slime do as it pleases as long as it fits its main role as bait to lure people into traps. We just need to teach him that Plant Cleric isn't the kind of trap we meant.

>>1125508
Maybe they did something bad and are prisoners. Is difficult to make a slime prisoner.

>>1125518
Admittedly, we also don't have many traps to lure into yet. Give it time. Once we have a second floor, we can do some more creative work for our lil' guy to have fun in.

>>1125518
actually, we could make it so that the next time the return to the hub, plant cleric refuses to offer heals because Ronin trampled her over chasing the metal slime. and have Metal slime lure Ronin do the same thing so that Plant Cleric turns hostile.

>>1125529
Ah yes, that would be a good idea. I'd also really like to work on the surrounding around our dungeon (since they're kind of crap right now).

One though I think I'll mention is that not everyone will want to do an epic long dungeon crawl. Maybe there's a way we can create dungeon tiers so that people who don't want to do the whole thing can still be satisfied with the experience?

>>1125540
Absolutely not. Heals are one of the main sources of gold income we have. That source should only be banned if the heroes decide they want to fight the Cleric.

>>1125543
Pretty simple solution really. Future runs, Curi, and requisite other bosses, drop what is essentially a 'go pass' that allows them to go to the next floor, if you keep beating floor bosses, you keep getting 'go passes' that allow you to progress to the next one.

Naturally, you can still fight the bosses if you wish, and you can take part in favourite puzzles for loot/more tokens.

Guys, why don't we hire someone to make a Gacha Slime Citadel on mobile phones? That way we can gain a boat load of cash in a short amount of time.

We need to give all the princeses one music rune and make a concert room.

>>1125621
Nah, they're boss slimes, not music slimes, mate.

That said, I'm sure we can find time to create an idol group around. After all, we have a tonne of cloth slimes, and idol's are nothing without a good voice, fancy mannerisms, and good clothing.

>Royal Slime Paladin focuses on defense, erecting barriers of slime to block off most of the Ronin's attacks. Each attack cuts deep and shaves off chunks of the barriers she brings up.

>Her four sword wielding method allows her attack at unexpected angles. It seems that, after a while, Slime Paladin can ONLY defend. A moment of pause, any bit of attacking, and Ronin will slip past her defenses and cut her.

"Impressive..." Slime Paladin says.

>Chemist is trying to craft something. He works furiously to brew an acid that will eat the slimes away. An arrow hits him in the side, making him cry out in pain. Archer slimes, summoned by their royal prince, have appeared and are pelting the Chemist with arrows. They're not terribly strong since they were not in the room originally and the Prince's powers aren't fully developed, but, even so, they can do it.

"Ronin!" Chemist yells, "I am paying you to keep these things OFF of me!"

"One moment..." Ronin says, somehow.

>Her blades glow and crackle with energy.

"Limit Break: Sword of fury, inject power! Masamune!"

We should probably try and redirect them away from the less serious fights, since they seem to be here just for fights and the core.

>>1125658
That's Lily's gimmick.

>>1125667
Probably, the good thing is that 4 of the 5 key rooms are battle rooms, the only puzzle room for a key is Curi's batting cage.

>>1125658
Yeah what this guy >>1125676 said. Lets see what he does to make the fight interesting.

>>1125676
All the Slime Princes and Princesses will share the same buff title called "Take up the mantle of Royalty" to show their connection to the legacy of the royal slime family. But the concept is the same, a bodyguard/beloved has fallen in the battlefield (i.e. Lily previously lets RSK do the heavy lifting while Slime Squire/Prince needed Pally to show him the ropes), and their death serves as a catalyst for them to take their duties seriously as an heir to the throne.
Anon, the power-up buff is an inherent trait to the Royal Slime family.

Running to the store. BBS

>>1125702
Come back soon!

>>1125702
STAY SAFE

>>1125696
I'm not saying that Slime Prince shouldn't get stronger when Slime Paladin dies, but it shouldn't be a straight power-up like Lily's is. Slime Prince has a different powerset and story from Lily, and his 2nd stage should reflect that.
Also, he needs an actual name. All the royal family should have names.

>>1125730
well he can summon archers and his guardian is a paladin so either some kind of buff for summoned enemies or he get's to add multiple laws going at once to make the fighting really interesting.

>>1125730
Gunter, or some similar slime based pun. I like Gustav, but he's the great mage of slime kingdom that we have yet to create at this time.

>>1125638
Neat. Let it rock, see how it shakes out.

>>1125696
Except Lily's upgrade happens when she dies and RSK sacrifices himself to save her.

But no, I don't think we should do a fusion with him except maybe for raid mode. Instead, I think his death should cause Slime Paladin to either give up or go berserk, and Slime Paladin's death should make him stop "goofing off" and fight for real. He is a 4-rune slime just like she is, after all, and royalty to boot. He should be stronger than her as he is.

>>1125730
Slime Prince's 2nd Stage would be different. As stated above, he's not well suited to swordsmanship like Pally or Slime Knight. he's more suited to Commanding and leadership. I would say his 2nd stage be him suddenly getting battle armor, and have him summon a massive retinue/company/platoon of Slimes that form the Royal Slime army. And then his title goes from Prince - > Warlord/Imperator.


>>1125743
Lily is the Royal Family's Magic Specialist. We made her A Magical princess in the first place remember?

>>1125754
It's true, but I still want a Merlin type figure. Lily had to learn magic from somebody, after all.

>>1125730
>>1125743
I feel the name "Slimen" (a Slime's pronunciation of the name "Simon") sounds better. It resonates with me. what about you guys?

>>1125765
I think Simon on it's own is fine. While some of the slimes have wordplay in their name, none of them are really like that.

>>1125765
Simon is fine,
>>1125773
this guy speaks the truth, with only Rosa being somewhat indicative of the slime that she is.

>>1125780
>only Rosa being somewhat indicative

>(Oil)ivia
>(Oil) Slime
But like I said, the wordplay is typically about the not-slime part of their nature.

>>1125773
>>1125780
It just occurred to me. If Simon (Slime Prince) has the lawmaker ability like pally, then 2nd Stage practically becomes Simon Says.

>>1125790
Sorry, I meant to clarify of the Royal Slimes, you're correct though.

>>1125765
Also, I have Sophie as being a bit of a magical powerhouse too. Which works, because Lily is more a battlemage when she REALLY gets going.

>>1125796
Beautiful.

>>1125796
We can make that work, we just gota give him an item like say an amulet with a law rune that he uses when Pally dies, goes from prince to king and plays simon says.

If we say thats how the mantle of royalty works out it could be the family sigil

This is a great ability!
Mary, please take note of this!

I support Simon Says. A Rules of the Realm type miniboss that tries to maul people by giving orders would be great.

>>1125806
Well, I DID have in that item list above the idea that each royal family member CAN drop a royal necklace as a drop...

And Curi already has her own...

>>1125806
Each prince(ss) represents a different facet of nobility?
Prince = Law and Order
Lily= Regality and Grace
Mirelle = Passion and intuition
Rosa = Caring and Nurturing
Sophie = Humility and Compassion

>>1125823
we gave the Prince a fitting name. his name is Simon.

>>1125825
yes? not saying it wasn't. I was saying each royal child represents a facet of their mother's rule.

I bet it's a lot less overwhelming too when it's not 3k posts...Yet

>>1125830
I'm not a big fan of that. It makes the Prince and Princess slimes seem less important, that they are only a fraction of what the Queen, and King if we ever get around to making one, are.
I probably explained that really badly.

>>1125832
I like this though, but only once we've made the full Family.

>>1125847

Larro quests are pretty comfy, and he manages player agitation levels well.

>>1125832
each crest by itself already gives a bonus to higher rare drop.
Make it an additional 1% (Dice roll translated into 1d100+[1 per crest])

>>1125861
But there has to be a risk to attempting that because from the slime's pov, you're basically threatening to destroy the entire kingdom and pillage everything.
And the more crest pieces/Royal Armor pieces you collect, the more difficult the quest will be. each royal family member fights harder because their kingdom is at stake!

>>1125861
>>1125873

I just love thinking that despite how much she complains about being stuck here Mary is coming up with all these plot lines and personallities for each little slime in her dungeon

>>1125886
She was born for this job. Plain and simple.

I for one can't wait for side quests and boss fight choreography.

Mirelle, Sophie and Rosa fights are going to be so damn fun.

>>1125891
Do the slimes know she wants to leave?

>>1125838
Trapped or trick cores are a good idea, but the only place a core would be is inside a slime. Not a good place for a bomb if we don't want to also destroy the slime.

>>1125823
Slimon special ability if his protector goes down

IMposition of authority- he makes two new rules that impose harsher penalties with no bonuses attached. This can cripple an over specced team but since he's alone now not to bad.

Mirelle
All is ash - the floor becomes lava and everything burns, race against time to drop her before the heat drops you

Rosa
Overgrowth - vines and plants sprung up in mass making it harder to move and fight with each passing second, eventually choking out the slow and unwary

Sophia
Castle of Mud - the room starts falling apart, falling hazards occur, footing can be fouled and adventurers caught. Also ruins your clothes.

Lily of course has take up my mantle

>>1125886
think at some point in the future we should turn Mary into a hidden boss since she is the dungeon master? Not to sure how other dungeons run but from what little we saw of the dick that trapped us here it seemed like the DM usually took a active roll in the dungeon.

>>1125897
I think the idea would be to place them in duplicate slimes which don't have them normally.

Also that reminds me, does the shop have any bombs with an Explodey aesthetic to them? Cause that seems like it would be a decent fit.

>>1125902
She'd have to be a puzzle boss. The trick being she has like 20 different defenses, but you've got to work your way through ALL of them.

>>1125900
Those are some definitely interesting ideas to use when everyone gets their final form. It's not even a matter of protection, but if we assume all boss fights are like Curi's and they are in three stages, Implosion of Authority, All is Ash, Overgrowth, Castle of Mud all seem like viable 'final form' things, similar to Take up My Mantle, and whatever you want to call Curi's final deal would be, "Mothers' Wrath" perhaps?

>>1125913
Empress's Fury. You killed the children in their True Monarch forms (as Kings/Queens), so Curi would logically become an Empress.

Backing this

I'm anticipating a low review this time if we don't just send him straight to the boss. It's honestly kinda high time we got a 1/2 star. Nobody's perfect.

>>1125908
I figured we could make her sort of a story boss, as in a boss you fight to get a better idea of this place's story.

What I was thinking that she'd be in the slime citadel's dungeon in a literal gilded cage as sort of a poke on how she's trapped her. Her fight would be somewhat like Curi's as in slime will spawn to try and stop the adventures but instead of Mary helping the slimes fight by jumping in with them she'd use her audit powers to debuff the party. The only way for the adventures to get to her would to be to solve puzzles that would let them reach her and if we can get our demonologist to find some kind of temporary fusion instead of a full fusion like she tried last thread we could actually turn Mary into a fairly intimidating boss.

So yeah, sorta a puzzle boss but that's just my two cents on it.

>>1125931
Indeed. Hopefully they'll have so much fun in the dungeon they'll keep coming back for more than just the core. Or at least won't hate the grid too much. If you're grinding for rare items you need to expect a hard scenario.

>>1125932
Yeah, that'll work. Although they may think we're just being arbitrary in our difficulty (like the no poisons rule earlier). Maybe we just have Simon says but let "Mary" pick what the rules are?

>>1125968
problem is Chemist is also a ranged fighter. Remember she's trying to prepare flasks of acid.

>>1125952
But then they'll merely unleash their Iaido techniques! Do you wish for them to cleave the whole mountain?!

>>1125952
Gonna go with this.

>>1125968
>Yeah, that'll work. Although they may think we're just being arbitrary in our difficulty
well I figured that when we came up with a new rule the old one would end as such I was actually kind of hoping to give the alchemist a bit of a chance to shine.

>>1125967
OH YEAH. SPEAKING OF.

We said we'd give it a bit to think about whether we wanted to rune up our new flunky. The human girl, I forget her name.

We should come to a decision on that. I say let's let her have at it.

>>1125900
>Overgrowth

Gotta be thistles. As a symbol of nobility, they represent the revenge meted out after striking at royalty or breaking the law.

>>1125975
I'd kinda like that too. If this were a mini boss room, I'd say it stacks, but this is probably better for a non-mini boss room.

>>1125922
>>1125952
...I'm going to resist the urge to cruelly suggest letting them out of the fight by giving the key to metal slime and go with this.

>>1125900
>Lily of course has take up my mantle
Lily also has "Arise, my knight". I think all of the royal battles should have a pick your poison mechanic (and maybe make the existence of the choice a bit more obvious than Lily's is).

>>1125977
The sooner we turn her into the shadowblade she was destined to be, the better.

Here's some ideas for some items in Slimecrown. I'm uncertain about the Royal Slime Armor sets though with their enraging effect on the bosses. Is it a bit overkill?

Slime Sleeves: Arm and Leg Sleeves that lets the user whip/stretch their limbs like a slime! The only downside is that the limbs that the sleeves are equipped become literally boneless and flop about like a ragdoll. Highly reccomend not attaching them to the legs unless you've completely mastered Slime-Fu. Also serves as training equipment for those who wish to practice the secret art of Slime-Fu.

Royal Slime Armor set: Comes in either the King's version or Queen's version. Obtain them by defeating a royal slime family member in their "True Monarch" form. WARNING: EQUIPPING ANY ARMOR PIECE OR AN ENTIRE SET WILL ENRAGE THE ROYAL FAMILY. THEY REMEMBER YOUR TRANSGRESSIONS AGAINST THE KINGDOM.

Well, I think Alchemist may yet get chances to shine. Maybe she'll do something in this fight, or maybe in one of the other fight rooms. Alchemist does strike me as somewhat of a thinker. Puzzles and creative fights may come into play to let him or her do their thing.

>>1126068
Then I wonder... what would make Alchemist like this dungeon? There clearly must be something that is suitable to her playstyle of tossing chemicals willy nilly.
She clearly isn't much of a fighter. She must be more support oriented if she has to concoct lots of potions or chemicals for offensive use.
