i hope i am not forgetting anything again.

>>693286 (OP)
Here we go again!

>>693290
That Teciouibi thing could be useful if we have to fight something stronger than paletoids.
The path that goes further east looks like it either splits up again or leads into a large chamber, the girls should check that one out first.

>>693308
There is a single mushroom growing in that disgusting room.

>I just realized that Miana didn't restore any SP despite spending two hours outside of combat, I did not expect it to take that long.
Resting 8~ hours + food and water will regenerate 50% of HP/SP.
healing itens are quite rare and has drawbacks.

>>693856
>Growing Green Mushroom
you mean "Glowing"?

I don't think that ominous door leads to the outside.
We might come back for it later, with a more reliable light-source.

Lets continue going south.
In case i roll a 0, make it a green mushroom.
Would it be even save to pick up a red mushroom?

>Resting 8~ hours + food and water will regenerate 50% of HP/SP.
good to know that healing does not take that long

>>693856
Actually, lets stay for just a little longer.
Is there something underneath that shelf?
I also think I figured out the door puzzle, try pressing the button that is labeled "two".
(It took me a while because I assumed the "two" was a typo but the letters on the door also say "two" instead of "to", very clever, OP.)

>>693856
Now that I had some time to think about it, the "stand by it" part probably means we should press the button next to the "two" button, lets go with that.
I should have taken more time to think about the puzzle before posting, so I wouldn't have to post 3 times.
oh well, here is some semi-thread related degeneracy.

>>693915
Nothing happens.

>>695337
I actually meant this button in my last post.
At least she didn't trigger any traps.

>>695366
FOOL! YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO STAND BY IT

>>695337
>>695366
Press ALL the buttons

>>693915
This is actually scary...
>>695366
>>695737

>>700314

>>700314
>>700315
I'm at my wits' end, are they really just suppose to perform two random actions and wait for the door to open?
I guess its worth trying, both of them can just clap their hands or something, that might count as two actions.

If that doesn't work lets just continue going south, that cloth torch won't last forever.

>>700358

I get the feeling that there will be more Mazda-abuse in the future.
Oh well, at least we got the green mushroom.

>>703182
Just weird pillars a an eye symbol, either a useless room or a puzzle..
not much to do here I guess.
>>703181
Did I get the layout of the room somewhat right?
We are going trough that room, that little shit better stay quiet.

>>703200
you got it right.

>It's the only room that smells like shit.

Tried to copy project moon art style, it's fun

>>703827
Oh the baby has a nice necklace, we will take it when we return to this place, after some preparation.

>>703828
Well shit, we have to report this to Seras.
The area east of the farm is probably infested with a bunch of these Hives.
Lets return to the starting chamber and head north west.

This picture looks really nice, I mean Mazda looks nice, the hive is disgusting but in a good way

>Have you ever asked yourself how these weak creatures managed to survive to this point?
I imagined they were some sort of semi-undead, mutated humans, this hive-thing makes more sense.
It fails at consistency but makes up for it with a quantity of deformed weaklings, good concept.

Here is a picture of Miana cosplaying as the female version of a traumatized, alcoholic mercenary.
I wanted to post it once you posted again but I got impatient.

>>703828
Took me a while to realize that the hive looks like a woman being force-feed.
Pretty disturbing considering paletoids don't have so much hair, makes me want to genocide them even more.

>>703851
>As if an army wandered for an eternity, the condition of the tunnel's terrain is bad.

>Mazda: I was hearing some noise coming from the walls around us for some time… Why didn’t we destroyed that hive?
>Miana: I don’t know what that thing could spill against us.
>Mazda: … That thing had a hair color similar to yours.
>Miana: Don’t say such a disturbing thing.
>Mazda: Some creatures can reproduce using other species, including humans.
>Miana: I hope this isn’t the case with Paletoids.
>Mazda: Maybe worse. Is very likely that… Paletoids was humans in the past.
>Miana makes a doubtful face.
>Mazda: Some people with the help of magic, knowledge or both, can live a lifestyle that was previously impossible. Even if they appears to be humans, or “better” than humans, sometimes is hard to treat them like one of us. Mages included.
>Miana: Paletoids don’t look like humans.
>Mazda: Some people aren’t aware of how inhuman they appear or act.

>>705665
Looks like Miana went through deep shit. Maybe a hug would fix her…?
This drawing made me imagine what Miana needs to became like that… She probably don’t have the will to endure and just… give up. To give an idea, there was a small period when she left the home village to search for a better place and that was enough to make her decide to “serve” someone for a place (the first place she ended up is the Halfenaked’s farm). She is spoiled rotten by her own luck.
To be honest, I want to draw some of her past and the farm’s children was a way to do so but Miana needs to be there. A lot of things needs to be addressed.
Thanks for the drawing!

>>707667
Giant crabs pass trough this tunnel, I don't think that the ground would collapse is two girls would walk trough.
But I feel like this is a hint, lets see whats down the south tunnel, avoid the room with the red question mark.
One important thing I would like to know: did the girls saw any activity in the western tunnel while making that bonfire?

Mazda looks so good in panel 3.
>Mazda dislikes mages
I like her more with every post.
>Some people aren’t aware of how inhuman they appear or act.
its called autism.

>Maybe a hug would fix her…?
Broken beyond repair, but expensive brandy keeps the nightmares at bay... sometimes.
I hope Miana does not actually become a Mercenary haunted by her past, but it would be nice if she could get a nice horsemans axe like that.
I would love to know more about Mianas past, I also would like to see more of the children at Evelyns farm.
Maybe I should write a background story for Merryl, so you could understand her personality a little better.

That comment about the hair color hit me hard, next time Miana levels up we get the Brutality passive skill and go on a genocide.

Funny drawing to lighten the mood.

Miana likes physical contact so she would be confused/conflicted and Mazda could probably do that.
>Maybe I should write a background story for Merryl, so you could understand her personality a little better.
I thought about that... If you avoid non-humans/magic in her background, there will be no conflict with the worldbuilding.

I bet i forgot something else...

>>707698
This is a piece I did not finish (and posted colorless) and I managed to screw up something that could show more of their personality... My bad

>>708482
Wew, good thing I asked about that crab, its vital information.
The polilth crab looks to huge and dangerous for Miana to handle.
Its behavior is quite strange, I don't think its doing that 24/7.

Anyway the girls should wait for the crab to pass by and then follow it, hopefully there will be more chambers in which they can hide before the crab catches up to them.
Whatever resides in the south west chamber doesn't bother us so we can leave it alone for now.

I tried to make Miana look annoyed in the last picture, while Mazda fools around during the dangerous situation they are stuck in.

>>708484
The wet clothes and skin look really nice, good coloring.

>>708503

(forgot the shield, no regrets. probably forgot something else too)

>>711554
The maggot carrier looks kinda cute in this picture.
Everything looks pretty neat here, except the typo where Miana says "they" instead of "we".

>>711555
nice trips
Why is there so much terrifying and disgusting shit in this cave?!
Gotta love how Miana went straight into fight-mode, but Mazda is right, lets keep up with the crab.
Just keep a respectful distance from the crab, the girls are dead if both creatures would focus on them.
It looks like everyone is traveling at the same speed, lets just keep calm and keep running.
I hope the next chamber wont contain another fucked up creature.
If we find a save room outside of the crabs death-circle, Miana could block the entrance so the maggot thing would stay on the crabs path.

Over 100 days since the thread started and they are still in that damn cave.

>>711568
>Everything looks pretty neat here, except the typo where Miana says "they" instead of "we".
Ops...
>Over 100 days since the thread started and they are still in that damn cave.
Oooooops...

>The stairs is submerged with water.

>>711702
Wow Mazda looks miserable, this picture conveys their situation so well.
>>711704
We would need some kind of waterproof light-source to go down there, and maybe water-breathing.
The crab outran us and the maggot carrier fell behind, this is great.
If that thing isn't smart enough to take shelter in the stair area it will be crushed by the crab before it reaches the other exit points.
Ok actually we don't know yet if there are any exits in the north part of the death circle, lets just keep running.
If there is no other exit, the girls can just return to the central chamber, or the maggot chamber if the crab isn't to close to them.
Looking forward to the squelching sound when the crab tramples our maggot-ridden friend.

>>711721
>There is bunch of crushed crab remains in the entrance of that room.

>>711968
Maybe this chamber is the crabs home?
Lets enter the south west room, the girls can slow down now.
I'm pretty sure the maggot carrier is screwed but Miana should still guard the doorway, in case it survives the upcoming stampede.

>>711982

>>712230
Mazda looks too damn cute when she is frightened.
There is a lot going on here, after Miana is done guarding the path, she should check out the intact bed.
That hatch on the back of the wall next to the broken bed is even marked on the map, thats the second thing that needs investigating.
Not sure what that box thing is suppose to be, a crate, a rock?
There is not much left of the candle(take it anyway), but considering how much wood there is in this cave, the girls might be able to camp here for the night with a small bonfire to provide them with light.
There is lots of cloth for torches, I hate to change plans but we might just clear the cave and stay for the night(I also think I know how to solve the door puzzle now).
Why is the chamber to the north revealed already, does it mean there are no hostiles?
>>712231
>Splosh
music to my ears, lets make sure the crab tramples it a few more times for good measure, can't be to save with all those maggots inside of it.

I'm seriously considering just barricading a room and letting the girls recover for a day.

>>712249
>Why is the chamber to the north revealed already, does it mean there are no hostiles?
Yeah, there is no unknown hostility. The both rooms are some kind of dormitory.

Maggot Maiden is pretty much dead, but not all maggots. That crab is a living trap

>>712677
There is no way Evelyn would allow Miana to keep a slave, but its funny to joke about it.
Its nice to have this much food.
I assume the northern dorm room was searched as well?

>>712678
They could leave right now, but I think its better to stay for the night and recover.
The northern dorm room looks pretty defensible.
For now, the girls should return to the puzzle door.
I noticed the area in front of the door might be some sort of pressure plate, try pressing the "two" button without standing on top of it.
And if that does not work, they could deal with the Paletoid hive, well the pig and the baby first.

>>712699
>There is no way Evelyn would allow Miana to keep a slave, but its funny to joke about it.
A fast one, i'll draw the rest after.

yes

>The northern dorm room looks pretty defensible.
There is a small hole in the wall, making possible to detect someone entering the area.

Mazda will give her insight (It will probably make you more confused) to avoid Miana's frustration which will be directed on poor creatures nearby.

>>712915

>>712764
Such a cruel joke, but she looks so sweet in the last panel.
She was an adventurer, huh? We should ask her later about that whole "murder attempt" thing that got her enslaved.
>>712766
She made Miana sad! Where would an escaped slave go anyway, the farm is her best chance of freedom and safety.
>>712915
The barricade looks sturdy, good to have a save place to spend the night and recover.
Fuuuuug! This door is a pain in the ass.
>>713137
You were right she does confuse me.
How is this Indentation on the floor suppose to be a "crystallized soul"?
Lets have a closer look at that hole in the door, is there something inside, are the triangle parts movable?
>>693856
perhaps we should search the room a bit more thorough.
Tear down the rags on the wall, push the logs over, check underneath the shelf ,the bowl and that pelt thing.
Maybe there are some clues or more of those crystallization-things.
Perhaps this is somehow connected to the room with the pillars and the eye-symbol.

If this really is the life-work of some autistic hermit wizard then the solution to the puzzle must be pretty weird itself.
And the loot inside must be nice too.

>>713137
Oh god I just came up with the most retarded way to solve it.
There are six "buttons", posts at /i/ are also in the six digit number.
Does Miana have to stand on the Indentation thing while while the post number ends with a two?
That would be some seriously esoteric meta shit and I fear for your sanity if this is the kind of riddle you can come up with.

Now!
stand in front the fucking door!

>>713572
nailed it!
>>713353
And just ignore all the shit about solving the riddle I wrote here, I want my loot now.

>>713573
shameless panic bump
what kind of item do you imagine is in there?

>>715148
Not a shield, Miana does not need a better shield yet.
Mazda seems pretty weak when she isn't in a forest, a +1 polearm would make up for her useless hooking Modifier.

Did you not plan some kind of loot table for that room?

>>715148
Aside from what I want to be there, I imagine there could be some magic item, since its a magic door and stuff.

I found out that writing is harder than drawing...

>>713475
>>713572
>>715171
>Did you not plan some kind of loot table for that room?
It counts as "Write in" loot.

>Polearm +1 has been found.
>Some alcohol(?) has been found.

>Miana: Evelyn will be pleased. I hope so...

>>716309
I imagine they have no idea why the door actually opened, it being a metaphysical puzzle and all.
Miana probably assumes it opened now because she inflicted the right amount of pain onto poor little Mazda, lol.

Mazda looks pleased with her new pointy stick.
That is a lot of booze right there, I wonder how long it was left to ferment in that room, it might be flammable by now.
Using it for fire would be a terrible waste tho.
They can use some cloth from the dorms to strap it to Mazdas back to transport it to the farm tomorrow.
She would make for a cute pack mule, I think.

>Spear obtained
>booze secured
>Mazda abused
Now its time t deal with the hive.
First Miana should try to sneak into the pig pen for a sneak attack.
And Mazda could commit Infanticide with her new toy, not that she needs a weapon for that...

Whats the difference between a regular polearm and a polearm+1?

Damn lucky pork avoided most of the damage.
1. make some pork chops.
Mazda should stay out of the fight, for now.

She looks pretty happy while killing a baby, good there is a more grim task ahead.
A d8 attack roll is pretty strong but does that mean that the critical hit chance is lower?

That was badass and graceful at once, Miana sure is lucky to own such a brave and reliable slave.
You turned the spear into a poleaxe, nice!
Its good to know the worth of the emerald necklace but that thing goes straight around Newlys neck.
A green gemstone for a green-eyed, green-haired maid girl is just too good.

Now its time for the girls to put the hive out of commission, I hope its as defenseless as it looks.
It will be messy but they got plenty of water in the central chamber to wash up later.

Whats with the inventory, did they leave the stuff in the dorms there?

>>719434
>Whats with the inventory, did they leave the stuff in the dorms there?
I just imagine it getting tossed and handled between them, even when using some item in combat.
The alcohol is quite heavy so it will be in the dorm until they leave that place.

>>719556
I may be misinterpreting this and I am just making a meta observation not attempting an action. The look in her eyes seems to indicate she doesn't actually want to be chopped with an axe. I forget what the thing being attacked looked like before it had an axe in it. I'm sure we properly investigated all of these thing before right.... right?

>Hope 1 bandage is enough to patch up them arteries.

>>719556
That woman was still conscious?
Put her out of her misery, holy shit we need to genocide all paletoids!

Miana should stay close to Mazda in case the hive tries to defend itself.
Man, thats some disturbing shit, what a horrible way to die.

So they pick up the alcohol and the stuff at the dorm when they go home?
It might be a redundant question, i just want to make sure.
I hope Mazda enjoys that necklace while she still has it because Miana has to spoil her little sister with it.

>>720219
I think he is referring to the poleaxe cutting into that woman's neck.

I expected that her mind would be reduced to a vegetative state when she was turned into that hive.
A bit of psychological trauma never hurt anyone, Mazda should be fine... I hope.
Looks like the poor woman didn't make it, disconnect the feeding tube just to make sure.
If they ever have to deal with paletoid hives again they should probably just destroy the feeding-thing, that should be more humane, right?
That bandage needs cleaning.

If that is all done, could we investigate the second puzzle room?

>A bit of psychological trauma never hurt anyone, Mazda should be fine... I hope.
She is fine, just a bit confused.
>Looks like the poor woman didn't make it, disconnect the feeding tube just to make sure.
Mazda don’t feel too good now.
>That bandage needs cleaning.
It can be done, but it will take some time so they will clean it while resting. (And Miana and Mazda will attempt to resist the usage of that bandage on them.)
>If that is all done, could we investigate the second puzzle room?
There is no contraption there.

>>720343
There is nothing they can interact with, just immovable pillars and an eye?
You mentioned that this in not some weird metaphysical puzzle, now I'm confused.
Does it have something to do with the shadows that the pillars cast?

>>720348
>There is nothing they can interact with, just immovable pillars and an eye?
Its a kind of puzzle that is not possible to solve without exploring all rooms.

>>720405
Holy shit, Merryl is at the farm!
She looks so innocent when she is dying~
So the poison gas had s long term effect, huh?
I guess now there is a town in your setting with a bunch of dead craftsmen, unless they got treatment before their lungs dissolved.
>>720406
Evelyn's son is such a kindhearted gentleman, he might regret saving her.
I didn't expect that Evelyn could be such a degenerate mom and based mom at the same time, maybe she would be fine with Miana keeping a slave after all...
I imagine that Evelyn can sense that Merryl isn't just an innocent, lost girl.
Why else would she refuse saving her life, is that potion that important?
Newly is best girl, probably the only child that Merryl actually likes.
Merryl will have to work hard as payment for that potion, right?

>fucked her so hard that you somehow damaged her lungs
kek

Anyway Miana and Mazda can explore the last remaining, non-flooded room after they get some rest.
12 hour rest in the barricaded room now.

>>720473

Miana and Mazda rests for 12 hours.
>1 day of food and water is consumed.
>Party’s HP and SP is fully recovered.
>Miana leveled up (11).
Miana: [HP: 15/15 SP: 10/10]
Mazda: [HP: 10/10 SP: 10/10]
[02:00AM]

Inventory:
>Food for 4.3 days.
>Water for 4.1 days.
>Flint.
>90g.
>A small Teciouibi (PT1D6,Pox 1D6, -2STR).
>A Glowing Green Mushroom.
>A strange insect (???).
>A candle leftover.
>A Emerald Necklace (~100g).
>A used bandage.

>It ran immediately after.
>Mazda: Uwah, a Necrofaggot… It was too fast...
>Miana: Maybe it came after the bodies.
>Mazda: I forgot about their existence. But I refuse to believe that even they could eat Paletoids.
>Miana: They can eat anything.
>A bunch of creatures characterized by their obsidian colored fur, Necro-Phagocytoser, is know for showing their presence in whatever place with a corpse start to rot.

(I bet there is bunch of mistakes everywhere)

>Living Water is normally know for his ability to purify water by consuming organic matter and expelling what they can’t from their body. This one somehow is unclean.
>By the size, it at least have 2 points in ARM.

>>722382
looks comfy!
Did Mazda expect something else when she was told to sit down and spread her legs?
>>722383
I expected lewdness once those two have some alone time and you delivered lewdness, nice!
The way Mazda puts her arms around Miana in the first panel is super cute tho.
>>722384
Kek, what a bizarre dream.
Miana is stronger now, praise Manmilk Man and his calcium-rich manmilk!
>>722386
You already revealed that the strange insect has a crit debuff.
The girls should get used to seeing those corpse-eating ostrich things, Miana leaves corpses anywhere she goes.
They look creepy but not dangerous and its nice when your resting place doesn't smell like death.
Did those creatures actually eat the dead paletoids, I imagine they would be inedible to deter other creatures from preying on them.

>(I bet there is bunch of mistakes everywhere)
Its fine, I can still read it.
>>722388
The living water blob looks passive, lets leave it alone for now,
Its still night, we need to kill some time, the girls should return to the central chambers.
I'm genuinely curious if our black-furred friends actually ate the paletoids.

Merryl is not used to the kindness of strangers, this picture should convey this.
Mistakes have been made and now the boy has to deal with that little freak.

>>722439
>The first one is MIA.
>The one over a corpses notices Miana’s presence.

>Their numbers can greatly increase after battles between other creatures, but when there are no corpses to feast on, some of the starving ones adapt to make flesh corpses.
>Eating their disgusting, toxic flesh is an inhuman feat.
>Their fur carry numerous bad omens.
>Any attempt to domestication end in more corpses.
>Limbs and organs can grow and/or atrophy for different purposes in few generations.
>However, somehow (((nature))) is seen as unaffected by their existence.

>You already revealed that the strange insect has a crit debuff.
Ops...

>>722746
This one looks way more strange and dangerous than the first one.
So, their diet makes their meat inedible, their fur means bad luck and they can't be tamed.
I would say we just leave these creatures be, Miana will supply them with plenty of corpses so they won't become aggressive
The ability to change and adapt their limbs and organs within a few generations is scary.
Good thing they are happy with just being scavengers instead of turning into apex predators.

"Enjoy your meal, necrofaggot."
Lets return to our dorm and just wait till its daylight before (finally) going home.
Fighting the blob would probably result in a long, drawn-out battle and the girls might need all their strength for a possible fight on the way home.

To pass time, lets ask Mazda abut that murder she tried to commit.

>>722788

>>724500
I think we all know that gentleman, right? Do the circle, my dudes.

>>724496
At least Evelyn's son likes her compliments, this could be the beginning of a wonderful relationship.
Its so cute how Merryl is too distracted to pay attention to his words because he is carrying her like a bride, I love it!
>>724497
>>724498
I hope Miana and Mazda aren't talking about the same creature, pack-hunting, bull sized monsters covered in limbs sound like a death sentence.
>>724499
So those are the adventurers that Simple could have saved at the beginning of the first thread.
They had a forest expert and a magic user and still got defeated, how unlucky.
What a shame, I really like the design of the girl behind Mazda.
>>724500
Huh, she was that girl that the snake guy was after?
I expected someone younger, he called Simple an old hag.
>>724501
I thought Mazda was an actual criminal that was sentenced to slavery all this time!
Turns out she is just the survivor of an unlucky party of adventurers, I should stop making these slave jokes.
This means that she could inform the adventurer's Guild about her failed quest with Evelyn's help.
That way they at least have some closure.
I'm glad that Miana isn't just dragging a fugitive criminal into the farm. (Merryl got that role covered)

I guess the girls can start their journey back to the farm at dawn.

I think I draw some more of these pictures with Merryl interacting with the people at the farm, here is one with best girl.

>>724749
Good lord, you call yourself a writer with this shit? Either start using grammarly or go back to school

>>724779
Welp, thats embarrassing, I shouldn't have rushed those speech bubbles.
I guess I'm made for drawing, not pknmksfor writing.

>>724749

A TINY MAN FALLS INTO HER CLEAVAGE

>>725056
Thats a smart way to share the weight.
The chance that they would stumble upon an enemy on their way back is pretty low, right?
>>726068
Seras' outfit looks nice, she sure is flat.
>Also we put a ownership crest over your womb.
Kek, this is my new favorite sentence
>>726069
>no hair
Niiice!
The lady with the hammer looks pretty capable.
>>726070
Oh the boys name is Lastess.
Poor Seras thinks she got Miana killed.
Merryl seems pretty assertive in the last pannel, I like it.
Calling her a child angers Merryl almost as much as mistaken her for a boy.
Lying about her age, calling Merryl a little girl and touching her. Seras is not leaving a good first impression.

Congratulations on your two year anniversary, OP!
Here is a picture i drew a while ago, I just really wanted to draw piggyback riding.

>>726068
The workshop, There is room for improvement.
I might change my plans and focus on gathering materials to get the discord quests done.

ill try to finish soon other parts

Why is the thread still on page 8 after you posted?
>>728149
>nothing intrusive was done
Yeah, I'm sure checking if her hymen was still intact was a necessary procedure...
Man I love those Lastess-Merryl interactions.
>>728150
I know it has been barely 2 days in game but it has been so long since Miana got to hug her little sister, fuckin' cute.
>>728151
>I almost died multiple times.
I wonder how much damage that shield absorbed, that thing is a true work horse.

Well Merryl doesn't know what this strange girl did, but she likes touching others.
A complimentary head pat wouldn't hurt.

>>728151

[8:30AM]

>>728553
Yagna looks really worried, whats with that?
So that boar he carried home was not the "furless boar" he was looking for.
The closest thing to a furless boar that I can think of is that Pork thing we killed.
I can see how Miana and Merryl could get along.
I hope Evelyn won't go to hard on Mazda with that interrogation.

>>728554
These two get along so nicely!
Merryl should make enough caltraps for the whole party + another caltrap pouch as a gift for Lastess.
She started with 40 material so after that, she got 20 left.

There is a few things that we should get done before we plan any future expeditions:
-Give that glowing mushroom to Bileaf and maybe ask her what she needs it for. (and a sample for Newly)
-Show that alcohol we found to Evelyn, since it was hidden in a magically sealed room it could be somewhat special.
-And maybe ask Evelyn for some clothes for Miana and Mazda.(or at least some footwear for Mazda)

>>727354

>>728676
[09:00]
Lastess is not there anymore.
>Merryl should make enough caltraps for the whole party + another caltrap pouch as a gift for Lastess.
Merryl's Item:
>66g.
>21 Generic Material.
> A Amorphous Projectile (Projectile, Trap)
> A Avian Projectile (Projectile, Summon: Vit1)
> A weak Amorphous Projectile (Projectile)
(These 3 items are stuff Merryl was carrying around with her, created via Improvise.
A projectile item can be used to perform a ranged attack (1d6) once.
The first one, for example, after being used will act as a trap. Essentially something with an amorphous composition (like slime creatures) that can be thrown as a weapon and set up a trap remotely.)

Inventory:
>Food for 4.3 days.
>Water for 4.1 days.
>Firestarter.
>90g.
>A small Teciouibi (PT1D6,Pox 1D6, -2STR).
>A strange insect (Debuff: -Crit).
>A used bandage.
>4 Pouch of Caltraps.

>>727354
Improvements made on Evelyn’s Farm will make the place somehow more safe/better, attracting new faces to it.
Improvements necessary to lure some fool to the farm: 1/4

How to improve the workshop:
Draw the workshop [Once per Character involved]
Spend 50 Generic Material

>>728676

>>729509
I’ll appreciate suggestions to appearance made for these characters:
Mercenaries contracted by the slavers (brief background of why that character is dealing with human trafficking is nice too).
The grave-keeper.
Seras’s father.

Also I’ll appreciate suggestions to appearance, profession and backstory of new characters (Dragged, tagged, purchased, etc etc) to the farm. (also answer: This character can appear randomly: [Yes/No]. If Yes, they can appear without farm’s influence, but I do not guarantee their safety.)

Absolutely not necessary, but there is a discord for this thread, I mostly use it to write autistic stuff there. You can ask me something thread related there without posting here. Once again, this one is not necessary.
Y6MztjEX

>>729503
I expected that you would suggest visiting Red Foxtail or go exploring with Mazdas help, I had the same options in mind.
That colored picture of Merryl looks gorgeous, i'm so happy!
>>729508
Is Yagnal worried that the three strange women are going to eat her at night? lol
Poor Merryl doesent get to spend more with Lastess because he is obsessed with hunting his white wale.
If that boar has the power to ruin the minds of the population of a village then Miana and the other two are probably no match for it, for now.
also, is that a giant blade that cut into the moon?
Really makes me wanna know about your setting.
>>729509
>leotard with exposed back and pants with bare hips
You are a man of culture.
>>729510
Both new outfits look great!
You are good at coming up with nice looking clothes.
That axe sheath on Mianas thigh is pretty handy.

Did Eve say something about the mystery-alcohol?
Is Bileaf happy, now that her request got fulfilled? (does that woman ever smile?)

Oh and we should take a lantern with enough fuel before we go somewhere, just in case.

>>729508
The braced Teciouibi!
Because missing with such a strong weapon would be a shame.

I still need to come up with designs for the other projectile items that Merryl is carrying.

>>729510
>Mercenaries contracted by the slavers (brief background of why that character is dealing with human trafficking is nice too).
I got carried away and made not only a specific background, but also names, weapons, etc. but no coloring at all (i can try it if you want). My bad. But the main brief background is inside the red squares, the rest is more for fun, feel free to adapt, cut, kill, etc. :]

>>730281
That's so cute! I love how you portray Merryl being so close to Mazda.

>>728676
It was not possible to give a sample to Newly.
>>729700
>Did Eve say something about the mystery-alcohol?
Evelyn: The reason alcohol was sealed is because alcohol in general “evaporates” in presence of any living being. A high quality alcohol can buy a small favor from a dragon. But in this quantity can only convince a wyvern. Useful stuff, good job not drinking it.
>Mazda leveled up.
>Oh and we should take a lantern with enough fuel before we go somewhere, just in case.
Bileaf: There is only one spare lantern. I recommend at least two, one in the front line and another in the backline. Also take this shovel for corpse-eaters and rope for holes you want to invade.
>A lantern, a rope and a shovel has been added to inventory.
>>730281
The small Teciouibi has been upgrated to braced Teciouibi (PT2D6+2,Pox 1D6, -2STR).
9 Generic Material spend.

>>730418
noted

(Is needed 1.0 water day to disarm the “trap” the red glowing mushroom, 1.0 to rearm it.)

>>730564
>Hat pats on the lap
Cute and compfy

A shovel for the corpse eaters?
Why bother burying corpses, just let them have it.
still useful tho.

The alcohol could be a valuable trade good once we visit Red Foxtail.

Alright!
Lets head east and search the paletoid infested part of the rising woods.
Mazda should focus on searching for projectile type items.
Hunting paletoids and gathering materials at the same time seems like an efficient way to spend the day.
I'm looking forward to seeing Mianas Brutality skill in action.

Happy new year everyone!

>>730781

>>729508
Here are my ideas for Merryls items.
I'm not sure how that summon-able would act after the initial use.
Would it stay for the remaining fight or leave after the target dies?
I think it would be useful for overwhelming a single strong enemy, 4vs1 instead of 3vs1.

Also a question about Mianas Brutality skill:
Does a kill with a critical hit add two stacks of terror to the remaining enemies?

And a question about Projectile items in general:
Do they benefit from the strength attribute like ranged weapons?

>>731086
The last two panels might be foreshadowing...

>>730781
[10:30AM]
[RER: 18.5%]
Merryl's Item:
>66g.
>20Generic Material.
>A Volatile Slime Keg (Projectile + 2, Trap)
>A Attack Screecher (Projectile + 2, Summon: Vit1)
>A Slime Dart (Projectile + 2)

>Lets head east and search the paletoid infested part of the rising woods.
Do you have a preferred route?
>>731866
>Would it stay for the remaining fight or leave after the target dies?
When the target dies, the summon will try to take advantage from the corpse if possible. If Trying to loot it may make it hostile.
>Does a kill with a critical hit add two stacks of terror to the remaining enemies?
yes.
>Do they benefit from the strength attribute like ranged weapons?
No, but there is a skill that make it possible.

>>732045
Lets go with this route for now, just gotta make sure that they can get back home before it gets dark.
The girls can search every zone individually on a later date, for now we just look for material and trouble.
Of course they should stop if they find a interesting location.

Mazda recognizing Mianas dramatic shift in personality is a nice detail.
Miana is so affectionate and docile at the farm, but out here she turns into a fierce shieldmaiden, hellbent on protecting her [s]harem[/s] companions!

The fact that Mazda still gets sad when someone reminds her of her failure in the wasting woods is a good sign.
It would be disturbing if she was happy and confident all the time, after all the shit she survived.

>>729510
I went a little overboard with the with the character sheet but armored girls with polearms are my second favorite thing to draw.

I imagine not all of the other Mercs will like her.

Mazda did a great job searching for those items, or maybe the rolls were just that good.
I already have ideas for those items.

Lets go back to this area and search it for 3 hours or so.
when does the sun go down, 6 pm?

This is an incomplete post.

Merryl should spend 9 material to add the projectile effect to the insect item, same with the humanoid hooking item.

1. Merryl should attack one of the normal Paletoids, the frog is more agile so she probably couldn't hit it anyway.

I guess one of the paletoids will call for reinforcements.

Not sure why Merryl put her apron on but it looks cute.
I forgot to mention it before but I like how Miana moved back to shield the other girls, really shows her protective personality.

1. Mazda should attack the frog with hooking modifier.

That thing is dangerous so we should take it out first.

Oh, nice teamwork, Mazda really knows what she is doing when shes in the woods.

1. attack the frog while its still hooked!

I wonder if the Frog also gets a health debuff from the reinforcement call like the regular paletoids, if that thing has 10 hp then it might cause a problem.
Merryl can't reduce the number of paletoids by herself.

And the damn protruding gums with the teeth with that torn skin around it...
OP mind can be a dark and disturbing place.
>>746333
Miana is a big girl, she can take a few hits.

1. Kill paletoid D, time to put that "brutality" skill to use!

>>746356
It will be a good boy once the girls chop it up till is stops moving.

Uuuuh, did the slime shard expand into regular slime inside of the frogs lung?
Thats so brutal!
What a miserable and painful way to die, just how Merryl likes it.

Crap, what a miserable roll.
Two stacks of terror and off balance and it still missed.
I should have made her use an item instead.

1. Kill it please!

I don't like how it looks at Merryl, maybe it's looking for an easier target.
I'm sure she can take at least one good hit, but let's try to avoid that.

Nice to see a critical hit at last, I almost feel bad for him...

Merryl sure rolls a lot of twos.
The "armor" on that thing is no joke, it can still tank weak attacks despite the Dog having a mental breakdown because of Miana.

1. Kill it already!

Actually, Mazda is still off-balance but there is still a chance for her to wreck it.

Wow, Merryl actually cuts up their corpses for material.
This kind of messy stuff doesn't bother her anyway, she experienced enough gross shit while working as a rat catcher.

Thats one green mushroom in the bag, lets see what else we can get.
Of course they gonna disarm it if its a red shroom.

Unrelated drawing of the kids at Evelyn's place.

>>752197
I know right?

>>752186
Oh right, forgot the corpse disposal.
Just pile them them on the frog, maybe the slime will claim them all.

Could Mazda track down where the paletoids came from?
Maybe there is a nest nearby.

>>752269
It seems to come from South/South East/ East.

>>753189
kek

>>753189
Mazda has been reliable in the forest so far, did she get some bad memories?
>>753190
I had the same idea!
Giving the shroom to Newly, i mean.
>>753191
We will learn more about paletoids in the future, after we visited red Foxtail.
And yes, asking Eve about the land tuna is exactly what I planed to do!

Lets go home!

Item dump!

>>753199
>Bone Dart (Humanoid, PT1D6 + 4, Eff:Hook) and P. Dog War-disc. (Humanoid, PT1D6 + 6 + STR) has been added.
(item status is not wrong)

>Giving the shroom to Newly, i mean.
Miana intend to give all mushrooms to Newly. Would Merrly object?

>>753323
Damn, those items came out strong, I'm not complaining tho.

"Wouldn't it be rather irresponsible to give an explosive mushroom to a child?"
Yeah, Merry would probably want the red shroom for herself, if they ever find one.

Is it really just 1:10pm? i thought it took the girls some time to run into the paletoids.
I guess the girls can take their way home slow, spend some time scavenging the woods.
Could Mazda help Merryl searching for more materials while they are still in the forest?

>>753323
Nice shading

Unf! Tummy rubs are the top tier!

Shit, I completely forgot about the shrapnel shroom, gg OP you got me there.
Guess Miana loves her little sister more than her big sister.
Merryl should supervise Newly while she messes with that thing.

I already planed on having Merryl give the Slasher-coil to Lastess, one of many signs of her gratitude.
Once he returns home of course.

Very nice, OP. It reminds me that the thread started as paper pencil.
Thanks for the link.
>>767721
Oh yeah, >>767696 is an iconic Utena's pic referencenced and picrel is the joke about fairies and invitations.

>>767696
The Crossbow girl and her sister do not fill a role currently.
OP mentioned a militant branch of the main religion in his setting in discord and it inspired me to draw >>755911
The angry lady with the flail is suppose to be a zealot of said faction and the crossbow girl would be her companion/packmule.
The armored girl with the warhammer was just a random drawing where i simply decided to make her look like the crossbow girl.
Currently OP does not need suggestions for such characters, if the need ever arises then I would probably make some drastic changes. (especially on the zealot lady)

>>767843
Yeah I think I saw alternate versions of that handholding picture before I think, just not the original.
And I think that I don't like faeries anymore...

>>767841
That Miana sketch suggests that you draw the torso first and add the breasts later, that is exactly how I do it!
Inconsistency aside, that must be the largest pair of breasts you have ever drawn on her, lol.

>>767808
That pic makes me wonder if we will ever get a bathing scene with the 3 Ms...
>Oh yeah, she has her eyes on the young lucky bas-
Can you blame her?

>>767841
Thanks.
>>767982
Theres a new religion. Wait, the "do the circle" one? The Uroboros gentleman's religion? Perhaps they are enemies?

>>769306
OP wrote a whole wall of text about the different religions in his setting in discord, about 6 months ago.
Ironically, Mazda might follow the similar religion as the fat guy.

We draw dead characters now?

>>770468
Cute! Simple had some serious dice rolls issues.
>OP wrote a whole wall of text about the different religions
I will check that. Thanks~

btw im not the guy (octopus) that suggested that familiar guy... but i kinda liked him desu~

>>770468
That religion system is awesome! I have reread about the Red Foxtail and only now i got that this world is very brutal. The gravekeeper is awesome too!

>>693286 (OP)
OP, you can't leave us with a lore this good! Gotta go for tall grass to look for OP!

I know theres already a plenty of mercs, but there are a plenty more, right! I'm kinda curious to know which of them will kick the bucket.

>>772932
Oooh I like this little goth mercenary already!
That machete looks pretty elegant, it fits her small frame very well.
She does not seem very approachable, whats her relationship to the other mercenaries?

>I'm kinda curious to know which of them will kick the bucket.
I was thinking about that too, its clear that they vary pretty wide when it comes to skill.
Murcott probably got some 'combat experience' skills, so not much would be able to surprise him.
Since Harriet grew up in the streets 'scoundrel' skills would be a nice fit for her, so she would be hard to kill too.
Eliott being a ranged guy makes him about as survivable as Merryl, just a bit less deadly.
Tanya is inexperienced when it comes to actual combat but her armor+billhook would compensate for that.
Hugo and Crystal are the most likely candidates for a quick death, as far as I can tell.
All Crystal could have going for her is being small and agile.
I'm sure Hugo can dish out some damage, him being a cruel bastard and all, but OPs combat can be very volatile.
I hope Hugo will be fine, I really like that greedy sadist a lot.

>>773036
>picrel
lol, i love it!
>they vary pretty wide when it comes to skill.
Man, im also with you in this. Crystal although having some dexterity isnt near Harriet and Murcott in combat skills.
Tanya can be very intimidating and her equips put a plus to that, making her fair better than Crys.
She probably fights better than Hugo, kek, well... had them the same size that is. (but no killing Hugo, hes cool please).
She is the most killable of the team apparently, even Eliott can fair better, but on a one-on-one she could get him, i guess? Well, CON (VIT) he has that's for sure... but combat flow can be cruel indeed.

Do we need to come up with stats for them so it becomes easier for OP to use? Or (please) no?

OP can say the average skills/points the archetype [novice], [inter] and [experient] have as base if needed be, then just trim it to the liking.

>She does not seem very approachable, whats her relationship to the other mercenaries?
I think picrel is accurate (?) it is pretty sketchy, sorr bout that~ cleaning can be done! But will take a while...

>>774083
Her relationship with the other mercs is just as I expected, at least she gets along with one of the girls, even if that is kind of fake.
I don't think OP needs us to come up with stats for them, I was just speculating about possible skills that could fit them, personality-wise.
If you get the urge to draw up more characters, OP still needs some actual slaves for the location.

Here is Merryl's actual height, as you can see, she is just as tall as her companions, lol.

>>729510
The grave keeper, he does not like black-furred corpse-chewers.and wields a nasty falchion.

>>788828
Sure, Eve can have it. If one land tuna managed to escape from it's previous owner then there is the chance to find more of them around the river, who knows.
Tunas are carnivorous, but with the amount of meat that Lastess brings home, feeding them won't be an issue.
This looks high effort for just a sketch layer.
>>788829
Eve being Eve.
>>788830
Gotta love how she is upset about the naming part. As if having kids with Lastess is a given already, lol.
>>788831
The first panel is so good, Yagna is a cutie!
The villagers talk shit about Eve and her girls either because they are magic users or because of their looks, I assume.
>>788832
This room with spare pillows and blankets looks so comfy.
>>788833
I can imagine how hard it must have been for Mazda to recount how her previous party died in the wasting woods during that interrogation.
She seems to get along with every one pretty well. Probably the most 'normal' out of the 3 Ms, even with her trauma.
Oh a day passed by, I barely noticed that detail!
>>788834
What Merryl says in the last panel fits her personality perfectly. Fighting bullies at an orphanage can't be compared with dealing with goblins though.
>>788835
I mean, there were goblins in the wasting woods, which can't be that far away since Mazda managed to escape from there and end up in this area.
>No kids will ever get their hands on my possessions
*Newly blows up the shrapnel shroom for science in the distance*
KEK
>>788836
Great art, this is my favorite out of the 9.

Miana should have not taken Merryl's mushroom grenade and bonked her on the head if she wanted her sympathy.
Anyway, time to give Lastess his pouch of caltraps and mass produce enough for every one in the house. (I let you do the math on that, I would mess it up)

So glad that you continue this, looking forward to some more interactions at the farm for now.
Perhaps some details about Miana's past, I have my own theories and would like to see if any of it is accurate.

I'm drawing a sidestory about the mercs, with OP's approval (more or less).
Just Hugo tormenting a slave girl for fun in this one.

Hahah! I wasnt expecting delivery today, a delight! Prissy has to be the one to bring some light at the mercs services.

It was a good time as long as it lasted, one hell of a ride.
I will be around for a little while longer but the side story ends here.
It was way to ambitious anyway.

>>793753
A kind and compassionate "caretaker" as all the world can see.

Working on something.

Yeah, totally agree

I mentioned something about OP potentially drawing a bath scene with the girls one day.
Now that he is gone, I did it myself.
Evelyn strikes me as the kind of woman that would spend a lot of money on a luxurious bath in her home.

>>796899
OP is gone!?

>>797998
Discord got nuked and his profile is deleted , he will be dearly missed :(

Not sure if OP would approve of Miana being like this, but its too funny not to do it.
Please forgive my hubris.

Yagna looks like damn Disney princess here, if she would stretch out her arm, songbirds would probably land on it.

Btw, in case anyone wants to see all the lost art from OP, the pictures are still intact in the archive site.

What a sight for sore eyes, bless you OP!
Miana looks like a tavern maid, it kind of fits her, will steal.
At least for a 'peaceful time at eves farm' situation, similar to Merryl's borrowed dress.
Hemya looking wild in your style, thank you for drawing her.
Makes me want to start a 'buried derelict 3' thread, but by now no one would remember it since so much time passed :(

>>805592
Do it. It does not even matter if they remember or not. Just put an archive from the previous ones.

>>805664
I will do it, I would like you to vote in it though.
You have your 'don't post without a drawing' rule for yourself but maybe you could keep it at a simple (RIP Simple) sketch?
I would value your input since you know how it is like to deal with autists in your thread.
Also, picrel is hot. I can't believe that Mazda was suppose to be a disposable character, you cruel man!
>>805666
satanic trips for an innocent girl.

Tavern maid Miana would probably get lots of tips, and offers to help her carry those heavy jugs, lol.

Whats wrong with getting a super early good night kiss in the middle of the day?
Also, all the pictures in the thread were restored!

>>805664
Actually, there is another thing I would like to start a threat about now.
It would be a more traditional fantasy setting, that could involve my favorite fantasy creature.

how would maina and simple interact?

>>805668
Oh, I would vote.
I don't know how to deal with autists, I just try to ignore non helpful posts.
>>809520
Harpy?

>>810884
Never thought about such interaction, but I imagined how Miana/Merryl would interact with Simple's mother instead.
>>796899
Oh. Ohhhh.
Nice.

>>811765
Ah, all the red foxtail characters in one picture, good stuff!
Somehow, the slave merchant looks exactly how I imagined him to look, a total coin clipping cretin.
That expression on Tanya's face looks good, Lastess looks like the cool fire mage that he is.

You guessed right with the harpy, although I still need to plan much.
Maaaaaan I have been drawing so little in the past two months.
I tried to force myself to finish a certain picture before doing anything else and ended up dragging my ass for so long.
It was a new character picture for the big tough axeman that I have been playing as in a homebrew ttrpg that I joined last year. Now that that is done I'm going to fix my harpy withdrawal and then see where I take it from there.

>>810884
She would put flowers on the grave :(

>>811842
Merryl and Mazda have a bit of a little sister/ big sister dynamic going on in my opinion, this cute picture reinforces that.
Simple's mom? As far as I remember, Simple entered the wasting woods trough a (now closed) passage in the south.
That would be one long trip down for the girls, I wonder if Simple could be considered a southerner...

Anyway, always glad to see you around and forgive me for the wall of text.
