2022-06-07 13:55:03 +0000 UTC View PostWe made our way back into the dugout, and found the Smash Queens waiting for us. Alongside them was a woman wearing a simple brown robe with green accents and suede green gloves. The Queens gave us...
2022-06-07 13:55:03 +0000 UTC View PostThe ladies led us through the back way, and as they were talking I was able to avoid the embarrassment of having forgotten their names by picking them up through their conversation. The Orc woman w...
2022-06-02 13:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostI should’ve taken that message and traveled straight for Pott’s Field. I was already pretty close to The Cut as it was, and with all that had happened I knew was well overdue to take a trip tha...
2022-06-02 13:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostWe made our way out of the facility, and for the first time I was able to see the damage I’d done through clear eyes. There were dozens of corpses. Throats were ripped out, heads exploded by shot...
2022-05-31 13:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostBy late afternoon I was armed and armored. I wore some of my rougher traveling clothes along with my leather armor I’d started with. At this point starting to look worse for wear even after repai...
2022-05-31 13:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostI awoke the next morning with a terrible hangover. There was only so much that decent stats could protect you from. They could make it easier to deal with sleeping on hard ground, pushing yourself ...
2022-05-26 13:01:02 +0000 UTC View Post“Too bad,” I lifted my shotgun and went to pull the trigger, but I found myself suddenly frozen in place.
V smiled. “You’re quick. I only just barely activated freeze in time.”

2022-05-24 13:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostI had a split second to decide what to do. My first thought was to dive back into the ruins and do my best to take potshots until I was the only one left. I decided on risking the quick death rathe...
2022-05-24 13:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostHey everybody,
I'm horribly sick and won't be able to post the updated downloads today. I apologize, I'll have them as soon as I'm feeling better. It shouldn't effect next week's chaps....
2022-05-21 19:10:23 +0000 UTC View PostThe next morning, I awoke far more refreshed than I expected to. I hadn’t gotten as much sleep as I wanted, but the sleep I had gotten was in a bed, and that was a pretty big improvement...
2022-05-19 13:01:04 +0000 UTC View PostWe made it back to the gas station without any difficulty. Our combined pace was such that the day hadn’t even ended by the time we’d arrived. Leah hadn’t yet returned, but Mercy was still ha...
2022-05-19 13:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostAs we approached the city, the road we were on connected to several others, and started to become busy. Merchants, travelers, and even a few adventurers started to come into view as we walked. I no...
2022-05-17 13:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostWe got back on the road and started heading in the general direction of the nearest taken settlement. It was still almost unbearably slow going for me, but I was also glad to be moving again in gen...
2022-05-17 13:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostThe rest of the day went by quickly, and we made good progress along the road. The idea that the dragon could return in a less merciful mood made it much easier for everyone to put on foot in front...
2022-05-12 13:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostIt was a good haul. Each of our attackers had a handful of ammunition, and most still had intact weapons. I took the ones I thought would be the most valuable and left the rest to the dust. Overloa...

I woke up for my middle watch with a head full of muddled thoughts and that uncomfortable and awkward feeling that comes from dreaming about people you’re about to spend...
2022-05-10 13:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostShortly after the card game we made our way out of Medina and started heading northwest. My allies were quiet, which I appreciated. Occasionally Mercy and Leah would exchange a few words, but they ...
2022-05-10 13:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostI approached the table cautiously, observing the three sitting at it, as they observed me. Leah was wearing the same amused expression she’d had last time we met, but her look had once again comp...
2022-05-05 13:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostWe finished loading all the swords and shields onto the cart, and from there we got moving again. I checked my notifications.
Congratulations! You’ve slain a Human (lvl 6)! You ga...
2022-05-05 13:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostI walked over to the railing and looked over the side. The fall should’ve killed them, but that was never a good assumption to make in the wastes. Especially considering my own near-death surviva...
2022-05-03 13:00:08 +0000 UTC View PostEventually I decided to break the awkward silence with Tib. “So, how does adventuring work for people in Heracleum? I’ve heard it’s mostly done through the government?”
Tib nodded. ...
2022-05-03 13:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostAfter wrapping things up with Bill, I headed back to my boat to spend the rest of my day peacefully. I had a strong feeling it would be a long while before I was able to take a day to myself. I dou...
2022-04-28 13:00:08 +0000 UTC View PostAt the end of the month, Millicent, Patience, Zevrack, and I were equipped and ready for our new job. I’d picked up a smattering of new skill points from all the training and was feeling much mor...
2022-04-28 13:00:08 +0000 UTC View PostThe trip back home was uncharacteristically quiet. No raiders peeked out and attacked me, giant roaches didn’t nibble at my boots while I slept, and vengeful townsfolk didn’t shoot me any chanc...
2022-04-26 13:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostShe had the upper hand all throughout our sparring. She’d been right, I relied far too heavily on my spells in combat. I still didn’t think I should skip out on training for synergy, but taking...
2022-04-26 13:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostThe ride back to Fette was uneventful, but soothing. The patrol that I’d borrowed rode behind me in silence. It wasn’t the contemptible silence I’d grown used to, but rather a respectful one....
2022-04-21 13:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostI stood there, looking at my hands as if they were disappointments. I felt like a kid whose parents had bought them a new toy, but forgotten to buy the batteries to go with it. For some reason, the...
2022-04-21 13:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostThe trip back through the wastes to Fette was maybe the easiest journey I’ve ever been a part of. I rode at the head of a massive convoy of trucks, motorcycles, and anything else that could be co...
