Current So I've learned that I have low-level adult ADHD, and that's helped me understand a little bit why I can never seem to stick with an adventure for longer than a month at a time.

I've started the process of writing an adventure book for my most ambitious GUTS+ campaign, and hoo boy, it's exhausting.

I'm attempting to make some one-page adventures for my GUTS+ system. We'll see how that goes!

I'm not a spambot, I'm just excited about my hard work on my app and I want people to not use spreadsheets to make conlangs anymore because that sucks!

@The Slenderman Going on a journey to visit family at least and shutting up the shop while he's gone (or putting someone else in charge). All this has been too much for him at his age, and he wants to wait until it quiets down again before he comes back. This happens ever few years, though, so this is pretty much standard procedure for him at this point. :P
Though someway somehow we'll have to make Kyato and Humphrey on trusting sides now


Never gonna happen. In fact, Humphrey's preparing to get outta dodge pretty soon here. He's in his back room packing right now, so "the four" will need to find a new base of operations pretty soon. Good thing Kyato's got plenty of space, huh?
@Alamantus this is where Akkina becomes her true self, not afraid of anything. Kyato will become part of the three making it The Four


Cool. I'll keep that in mind for the next summary! :)
Alright, everyone, here's my summary from page 6 through pretty much the first half of page 13. There's a LOT:
  • Randy "the Junker" took Ava's rapier and agreed to try to make a better, more katana-like sword.
  • The man Silas killed turned out to be the son of a powerful man in the market.
  • Silas won the sparring match with Akkina.
  • Time passed and Emilia popped in just to eat some food from Kita's Indian Cuisine. (Nothing happened, but it was a long post)
  • Kyato comes into Humphrey's pawn shop looking for Akkina's sword, Durandal, for some reason and is in general super rude. Humphrey doesn't like his rudeness and more or less instantly hates Kyato, kicking him out of the pawn shop.
  • Randy got jumped by three reptilian punks and was aided by Silas and confronted by Kyato, who pulled a gun on them. They chased Kyato for a while.
  • Titan comes on the scene looking for supplies and asks Humphrey where he could get things. Humphrey directs him to the general store just north of the pawn shop.
  • Ava visits the pawn shop to browse, but things start going wrong while she's there and she isn't really helped.
  • Shit is about to hit the fan. Randy has teamed up with Akkina and Silas (I'll call them "The Three" for this summary), and Kyato is being manipulative and shady.
  • Titan takes the bounty on Akkina and Silas' heads and begins hunting.
  • Dennis came to Humphrey's pawn shop to ask some questions, but Kyato barged in again, asking about Akkina. Dennis pulled his gun on Kyato and Humphrey freaked out and called the City Guards immediately.
  • Turns out Kyato paid off some of the guards, but he was escorted out of the pawn shop.
  • "The Three" walk in and out of the pawn shop and the shit finally hits the fan.
  • Dennis asks for some equipment and where he could collect a bounty, and Humphrey gives him a magic sniper scope and directs him to the Splintered Post Tavern in the Old North Quarter.
  • Humphrey, becoming uncomfortable with all the movement and people coming in and out decides to hide in his back room.
  • Kyato changes sides for some reason and decides to try to help "The Three" escape their bounty hunters.
  • Titan makes his move and captures Randy but is being confronted by Silas and Akkina. Oh, and he is also holding Kyato, but I'm not really sure why.

This and the first summary is also on the first post.

I've also updated the map with everything that I've found that's been mentioned in IC.

I'm just tagging everyone who has added a character or has ever posted in OOC in order for this update, so if you're not interested anymore, my apologies.

"I need some parts that can improve my sniper's scope and maybe a silencer?" Dennis requested stepping towards the man sheathing his pistol and laying his sniper on the counter. "Also does there happen to be a place around here where I can cash in a bounty?" He asked patting the side of his pistol.


"Well, you're in luck, sir! I don't have parts, but a few months ago, I had a hunter sell me a really nice scope with a touch of Foresight magic imbued into it. I haven't tried it, but he said it shows you where your target will be right when the bullet reaches it, so you can be sure to always hit a running target as long as you aim where the scope shows it!"

Humphrey clomped over to one of the shelves along the wall and reached up to grab the sleek, polished sterling silver scope and brought it to show Dennis.

"I don't have any silencers, sorry to say, but does this sound interesting to you? As for cashing in a bounty, I don't know anything about that. I'd ask around at the tavern in the Old North Quarter. They get some unsavory folk through there, so I'm sure you'll find someone who could help you."

Dennis didn't want to feel like he was trying to make quick change but he pointed to the door. "That man who barged in here a few seconds ago is he bothering you? All you have to do is place a bounty on his head and I'll do the rest."

Humphrey laughed loudly.
"That's a tempting proposition, my friend! But no, unfortunately I haven't got the heart or the money to take or request to take someone's life. Monsters and animals are fine, but people are different to me. I don't know."

All sorts of commotion had been building in and around the shop, and Humphrey was starting to get a bit unsettled. He didn't mind activity in the shop, but this felt bad. Akkina and the trapper and the weapon booth salesman and all sorts of other people had been walking in and out and all around, and it all just felt wrong. Then the giant man was back threatening the weapon salesman. Humphrey had to get out of there before things got any worse.

"Well, hows about I just give you that scope as a gift, sir. I've got to get out of dodge pretty soon here, and it'd just be easier for all of us if you just take it, hm?" Humphrey headed to the back room and locked the door. He didn't want to get mixed up in any more of this.
@Alamantus
Hey we can set up full shop buildings right?


Yep! Just try to be clear where it is in relation to something that already exists (even if it's just one of the gates). Have you seen the map?
@AlamantusI think you might need to do a summary again bud.


Yeah, I guess so! How'd we burn through another 6 pages so fast?
Welcome welcome! I hope you enjoy your time here! :)
Sorry again, everyone. The weekends are my most busy time and I rarely get to be on the internet much. I'm posting this from my phone right now, and it's hard to do IC posts from here. :P

I'll post as soon as I get a chance.
" Oh hey Randy" Kyato tilted his head back and smiled at him then looked at the guards who had restrained him " I'm a business man, take me back to my business, Jameson and Arick" Kyato said boldly to the guards, just two of the guards HE bought out. He grinned to Humphrey. " All I want to know is your shop guard's name"

Shaking with rage, but powerless to do anything further, Humphrey turned his back and walked back to the sword case. He shook his head and waved an arm back at the guards.
"Just get him out of here. I don't want him anywhere near here."

The guards nodded, hoisted Kyato up by his shoulders, turned around and marched out the door, muttering to him as they went, "Sir, you don't pay us enough to get into trouble like this. We still work for the king and need to protect the citizens here. We won't arrest you, but please don't come back. Our commander was on his way over when we received that call, and if he heard, we wouldn't be able to protect you!"

After they had walked a good distance, the guards let Kyato down in front of the Tavern. They gave unenthusiastic salutes and walked back to their posts at the South Gate.

Humphrey turned back to watch the guards go and then spoke to those present.
"Sorry about that, folks! And you good sir, with the sniper. Thank you for waiting so patiently. We'll let the lady peruse the swords some more, but how can I help you?" @Slendy

Cheeky motherfucker. "You'll get what's coming to ya." Randy threatened to Kyato. He then looked at Humphrey, signalling to him that he needed to talk with him.

Humphrey noticed Randy and tilted his head at Dennis, signifying that he was busy and Randy should come inside and wait his turn.
