Pagan for sweet neckerchief. Let's get a red one.

Obviously pagan

I there are many deities, shouldn't most of the priests and prophets be pagans? The non-pagans would be just the nut-jobs who deny the existence of multiple gods.

We are a Pagan. Let's find out what this mean in this context.

As a Pagan your power comes not from gods nor deities, while demons tend to be mindless beasts with enough practice one can learn to harness the untamed power they hold

The Pagan is WITTY, able to think up new and unique ways to get out of situations. though this comes at the price of STRENGTH if you're smart enough you may not need to fight at all.

You can see the ceiling from where you stand, theres nothing interesting, and you only know a summoning circle to conjure a Demon Flagellum but you lack the necessary materials to create it.

Stick your leg in the crack.

No it is merely a way of which I seek to look upon myself as I once was a means of leaving it all behind.

Unless it can climb down the wall of the prison while carrying you, like some kind of wiggly grappling hook, you need to go out doorways, not windowways.

Do you know any other prisoners that could help sneak out? Or you could just start letting them all out and start a prison riot.

Looks like some guards are upset about their door.

Guard 1: What the hell is that !?

Guard 2: How'd you summon a demonic limb ? No matter, call a Priest ! we need this dealt with fast.

The guard that gave you the mirror isn't here, but you don't really need her to escape.

Priest? Nonono that just won't do.
NO ONE LEAVES ALIVE!

They can both take a closer look at your demonic summoning ritual - from the inside! Even if it only grants thirty seconds, thirty seconds is more than enough time to find His Grace's next meal.

>One person adds like 30 seconds of time
Which is even less of a boost since it has to invest time in the eating.

Can you just summon a new one with dead guard guts, or will it break the mirror when it expires?

>priest
No no no, none of that.

Eat the priest calling one, then threaten to eat the other one if they don't tell you where the evidence lockup is.

WHERE'S MY STUFF

Eat one guard, then ask the other guard where they keep prisoner posessions.

Do a quick inventory of your bag's contents so you're reasonably sure everything is still in it. It's possible that the officer in charge of the evidence lockup has "sticky fingers," or that exceptionally dangerous or heretical contraband was put in the custody of the priests for special storage or destruction.

Shame you don't have the time to either find the inventory ledger or toss the place for money or easily sold high value goods, but them's the breaks. Nab your bag and hoof it. How much time do you estimate you have left on this tentacle? And which way is the prison exit?

The AZERITE CHUNK !, rare material that you jumped through insane hurdles to get ! Its properties are demonic in nature so its sought out by pagans and priests alike. with the right know how this thing could move mountains!

You land safely on the roof of a far off building, and just in time too, your Demon Flagellum (Jefferey Cuddle-Trousers) has begun to dissipate and is returning back to the Aether where it belongs. You don't think anyone's knows where you landed and now that you've single-handedly escaped prison, you feel like now might be a time to catch your breath and think...

>>800623
Good boy. Rest for now.

You need to go to ground. When the chaos in the prison calms down, there will be search parties for escaped convicts, and you need to be blending in with a safe place to crash before then, and not be at the end of a trail of dark energy a priest or holy type can follow.

Time to hide out in a hideout of some sort.

This is true. You summoned a level one demon limb so there won't be much of a trail but still enough for them to find you if you stay in one place for too long. You have most of your stuff back but you're still screwed if a Priest manages to find you.

>>800625
>>800586
There should be a pagan colony somewhere in this area, hidden of course but with your training you should be able to sense one when you're close enough. Sadly you lack a map after an unfortunate bear incident left you wandering near this damned city of Itsdin.

Cities like this controlled by The Regent Church are awful: Magical drinks and beverages are illegal, You need a license to practice any sort of magic, and if you even bump shoulders with someone who looks like a heretic you're off to interrogations. It's insane what people'll put with, but anyone scared to death of big scary demons will do anything for safety.

Why did we even come to itsdin to begin with?

>>800634
City of "Its den"? Who does the den belong to and why does it look like a city instead of a den?

Don't lower your guard yet, I'm sure this building gets inmates landing on the roof all the time. Whistle an inconspicuous tune as you jimmy the lock on the rooftop exit.

Yeah, if we got this far with only a first level summon and no outside help, they probably have standard procedures to hunt escapees who get this far in an escape. Otherwise what would be the point in trying to lock up pagans at all? We need to take a bunch of wrong turns and figure out how they're tracking us.
What's more likely, that a guard just happens to give you something a pagan needs out of generosity and stupidity, or they're trying to follow you to more pagans?

>>800634
Since we're taking a break we should find a safe place to knock about the ol' beef curtains. Nothing more important after a stressful jailbreak and demon summoning than lurid acts. It's only thematic!

>>800657
There's no roof hatch on this building, but there is a pipe to shimmy down. You climb down into the alley behind the building, there are one or two people around but they don't pay you any mind.

The odds of that guard releasing you on purpose are slim, seeing as you also caused a riot, could've killed two guards, regained possession of illegal Azerite, and destroyed a bunch of sensitive evidence. If that was their plan it was poorly executed, but you wouldn't put such poor planing past god-fearing idiots like them.

The best thing to do now is to get out of the city, they may give chase anyway but its better than staying around.

>>800775
Only reason to stick around is how much scrutiny we expect at the boarder. If the exits of the city will be staffed with guards riled up by the riot, checking every traveler to see if they're an escaped prisoner, we might be better off sticking around and using the people as camouflage.

Maybe you need a disguise!

Why don't you switch the wrappings so that your left eye is covered and your right eye is uncovered? Because everyone is going to be looking for someone with their left eye uncovered and their right eye covered, so switching it will throw them off if they see you from a distance!

Something like this, but more covering, with sleeves and a longer skirt and a veil. If the veil would look weird you can get the whole thing in black and pretend to be in mourning, which is also a good excuse to not be very talkative.

While shopping you spot another outfit that catches your eye, well crafted and designed. Though you feel the dress will be better disguise for the city, you do think about throwing this on once you you exit the city.

There is no one manning the counter, just a sign that says "Crazy Carmine don't need any dang money now git". Odd business practice but you're not complaining

You put your dress back on and leave, now you've got a disguise but its best you keep moving and search for a good route to escape the city, preferably one with no guards.

There's an Inn in front of you and the weird cloths shop behind you.

Is the inn also a bar? If so think we can get some info of the quickest way out of here? Preferably the less church/guard interaction the better?

Go in the inn.

>>801025
Oh, good you've got a normal outfit that you'll wear once you get out of town. I was starting to get a little worried about you.

But seriously, try not to go anywhere where someone will try to hit on you. Because you really do look like a hot lady someone will try to hit on!

What do you know about the exits and what kind of checks they make on people leaving? If we can sign up as a passenger traveling to another city will that get us through hiding as legit traffic, or do we actually need to avoid the normal routes out?
If it's the latter, well, smuggling has got to be a booming business for a city with invasive and restrictive border controls.

Inn's tend to also be bars, its just one of those weird laws nobody goes against or thinks about. Beds and beer do go well together when you think about it. There's gotta be someone inside with some info on different escape routes.

>>801059
Going through a legit means of exiting the city puts you at risk of bumping heads with guards. Your disguise might fool a guard but if they have any Church-trained specialists then you will have trouble, you still emit demonic energies especially since you're carrying Azerite. Finding a smuggling business could work too though that could get you caught up in some shady dealings if you're in the wrong company.

>>801043
first off: no part of you is "hot", second you'd love to go anywhere else where being hit on wasn't an immediate threat but Inns tend to have people who know things, another weird law of the world: "If you're lost, go to an Inn and ask questions until you're not anymore".

>>801034
You step into the Inn, the first thing that catches your eye is the white and blue Reagent Church banner on the wall, not a good sign. Immediately in front of you There's someone manning the counter and someone knocked out at the far end

Don't get too used to the color i'm getting sick of doing it

Alright so we've got a bartender and someone already passed out drunk. Our best bet is to ask the bartender. But but since that's a religious symbol our best bet is to greet him with whatever opening line the church uses like "hello there! Deus Vult!" Or "greetings! praise the umbasa!" And then gauge his reaction. If he responds favorably then let's order a beer, pay for it, and be on our way because we are clearly in the wrong place

Might be able to rob the passed out one if the bartender is looking elsewhere.

Although apply social skills, good looks, and a pretty dress on the bartender might work too.

You approach the bartender and do the best to seem like a church going scripture thumper.

You: Hello there ! Uhmm... Praise the D-Deus Obama...

Bartender:Hmm? oh yeah praise the church, bless you ma'am or whatever I guess.

He doesn't seem too excited about the church or notice your shitty excuse for a church-goer impression.

You: You seem a little down sir, that was quite a halfhearted praise, is there a problem ?

Bartender: Well... I can tell you're no member of the church from your praise so i guess it couldn't hurt to tell.

Bartender: Ever since the church passed that law banning magical beverages a while back my business has been going down the drain, beers just don't sell as well as Mana Malts and rented rooms don't bring in as much as Kaiju Brews.

Bartender: That and with the taxes going up, I fear this place will be shutting down soon...

The bartender seems destitute, maybe helping him could prove useful in our exodus from the city.

>>801201
He called you "ma'am"! See? What did I tell ya? You look like a woman!

Which is perfectly fine, since that's the point of a disguise.

Buy a beer! You have money now, right

Might as well contribute to this mans welfare. Order a drink if you have the coin. Assuming he isn't lying however....

But yeah let's use our wit to see if we can gauge whether or not he is lying. By the way, if you want to get more manly and less feminine we need to increase our strength. Be a big strong pagan warrior! HELL YEAH!

I understand. When The Law puts a stopper in your income flow, sometimes you gotta start a little 'side business' up, know what I mean? I'd be happy to help you in any such profitable ventures.

You order a Mug of Ale for 10 gold (leaving you at 35 gold)
You attempt to make a WITTY observation (6/5 Success!) while he prepares your drink.

The shelves behind him are empty, looks like where multiple bottles were before they were taken down. While he fills your mug you check behind the counter, hes only got two large casks of ale. assuming they have different types of beer hes only really got two drink items on his menu, not a lot of variety and a place with such a limited stock couldn't possibly open in such a large well built establishment, then again you haven't seen the upstairs. You get the feeling this guy's not lying to you

You: Hey so if business is so bad because of your limited stick then why not sell stronger booze ?

Bartender: The first thing I did was get a second cask of strong stuff but people dont really care about that, they came here for the, magical drinks with the special properties.

Bartender: Each sip had a little bit of fun in it. Fairy Fizz made you breath clouds of incandescent sprites, Vocal Vodka swapped your voice with someone who shared it with you, and Prismatic Pop made your eyes swirl a rainbow of color without making you sick. This place was packed with fun loving patrons every week, but now all I get is the occasional drunk.

Bartender: The magics literally been sucked from this place ever since the damned Reagent Church made that law, even made me raise that banner so people know I can't serve the stuff.

You: Wow, that's tough sir...

This guys for real, maybe getting him to deal in some more shaddy business for the good of his establishment could help him and you at the same time...

There isn't a need to break the law if there's no law against it. Instead of escaping the town because of the church, why not drive the church out? Go around town and see if there's anyone else being opressed by these religious jerkwads.

I dunno, it sounds like the obvious solution is for this guy to bribe the guards or open a bar hidden from the guards. Probably doesn't have the money to bribe the guards and pay inflated smuggling markups at the moment, so that leaves finding some smugglers and setting up a hidden bar.

"It sounds like the guards limiting your stock would be the real problem. The simple options to fix that is convince the guards to let you sell the good stuff, or go somewhere the guards don't stop you. If you do either of those in this town it'll probably mean buying a supply from smugglers, though."

It IS THE GOVERNMENT, they make the laws, run the guard, regulate tax, everything is pushed by them.

You: No stupid ! sell magic beverages illegally.

Bartender: W-What ? that could get me in a lotta trouble Miss!... but its not like I haven't thought of that before. I wouldn't even need to worry about buying the drinks I brewed everything here myself before the law passed.

Bartender: The real problem would be hiding it from the authorities and even if I can make the drinks I still need the ingredients. There's a lot I need to worry about if I did it, I'm just not sure.

You: But wouldn't it be worth it ? Showing those religious assholes they can't keep you down and taking back the business you loved so much ! Those fuckers can't keep you under their thumb forever !

The bartender stares at you, enthralled by your words. You've hooked him.

Bartender: You're right ! Yeah you're right ! I don't have to take this anymore, I'm sick of this ! I'm going to open my own under ground pub!

You: I think they're called Speakeasies

Ulrik: So da fool's finally gone an' decided ta do sometin about da Reagen' Church's law besides mompin' and groanin'.

Ulrik: I gotta way a' gettin' dis stuff, ya sit tight an' al be right back.

Ulrik walks off into the back, it sounds like hes walking into the basement.

Take a look around while we wait?

Examine the goods while he's done there. Anything catch your eye? Or particularly compatible with your flavor of demonic heresy?

Buy a revolver to go with your Three of Hearts outfit.

There are some nice knives and pistols know that you look closely, a lot of them are standard issue but the more expensive ones are a little more exotic. Speaking of expensive a lot of these are way out of your price range, guess you'll have to come back another-

Ask why they're looking for the owner.

Oh shit... Mafia and/or local gangs.

"Uh... He's out to lunch?"

Use your wit to make them think he is elsewhere? Failing that we got any demonic magic on hand that can fuck up these guys day? Maybe slip off to the "ladies room" and summon up our pal jefferey cuddle-trousers?

Oh.... I was wondering why the Clerk ran out back so quickly.

Use the precious seconds this buys you to warn Ulrik and prepare a spell.

We can't! We have a mirror, but we don't have any animal viscera to use! Unless we get really lucky and find a rat in the bathroom.

You: E-Excuse me gentlemen, would you happen to be looking for the owner of this shop ?

Strange Man: You work here girly ?

You: Uh, no but I know he's off doing something and won't be back for a while.

Strange Man: Really ? He's off somewhere else and he left the shop unattended with someone who doesn't work here still inside with all the lights on?

You: I uh... just wandered in, he must of left his door unlocked because I just pushed it open. W-Why do you need to talk to him ?

Strange Man: That's not any of your business miss, now you should get out of here. I wouldn't want a lady such as yourself to see or hear anything you don't have to.

What now ? They'll definitely search the whole place including the basement to find Ulrik, and if you stay you could look suspicious.

Walk out, prepare spell, walk in, chaos.

Pretend to be cowed, go outside, then murder a rat in the alley and paint a mirror reflection of the summoning runes on the outside of that window there, summoning a tentacle on the inside of the shop to eat them. Or at least to knock them silly.

You're not letting a bunch of thugs ruin the underworld contact you just met before you even get a chance to use him!

We are probably talking to Ulrik's smuggling contacts right here. Engage them socially.

"Just one thing, would you gentlemen happen to be, or be able to direct me to, dealers in... more difficult to acquire goods?"

No rats or other small animals, but there is a Dead Fly and a Tooth out here. You open your Sygil Book and look at your recipes. You've got 6 Sygils in the book and only 3 you can summon from. You have a Tooth, a Dead Fly, a Rotten Apple, and ,3 Amethyst Shards to use for ingredients.

A) Roaming Gluttony
(Tooth, 2 Amethyst Shards, Rotten Apple, Something Metal)

B) Voyeuristic Globule
(Amethyst Shard, Rotten Apple, Something Reflective)

C) Cerebral Gnat
(Dead Fly,3 Amethyst Shards, Rotten Apple, Something Shiny)

You don't have much time to think.

>>801606
Looks like it's gonna have to be the globule, come forth Amanda Kissenhug!

>>801606
The Globule sounds like something we'd use for recon. Let's go with Gluttony.

Gluttony

I'm hoping the globule gets "immobilize you with a stare" kinds of powers. Lets go with that.

>>801606
You forgot to mention you also have those shiny gauntlets you took off the guard as well. Those would work for the metal or shiny components, and possibly for reflective if they're really polished.

>>801606
>You don't have much time to think.
But do you have enough time to be more specific on what each of these 3 summons can do?

Gluttony eats and stabs stuff. (Sustain Time: 30 Minutes/ +5 Minutes per eat)

Voyeuristic Globule lets you look through its eye and points out key weaknesses. (Sustain Time: 1 Hour)

And the Cerebral Gnat controls people. (Sustain Time: 1 Minute/ 1 Hour after infecting host)

>>801621
B won't fix our problems, then.

A will probably kill them, but it might cause collateral damage to the shop. (Although there are lots of stabbing implements for it to use).

C would cut down on collateral damage if we use it to get them to kill each other. Might be less of a sure thing if our possessed host gets killed, though.

Okay, he's alive still. Switch cover, and see if there's any sort of indirect weaponry available, like grenades.

What the shit? Is that normal?

SHIT
JUST
GOT
REAL

He must haveal a fetish nearby, probably on his person. Shoot at his pockets!

He turned his back on your summon! Now it can sneak up on him! .....hopefully.

So. Um. I guess he's a demon then? Or the headshot got forced on someone else via a voodoo scapegoat he'd set up earlier?

I guess distracting him so he doesn't banish the demon before it eats him works, too.

Oh yeah, Mr Chompers is still in there with him.

Since you did damage to him while he was channeling a spell or hex or whatever voodoo has he shouldn't be able to cast for a while.

(That's a good rule to remember it applies to you too)

Then again you haven't seen a voodoo user before you've only read about them, but nothing you have read could have prepared you for seeing one to just get shot in the goddamn head and NOT DYING.

There's probably a voodoo doll somewhere where a blown off head right now. Or an unlucky minion. Damage shunt. Like when they stab a doll with needles to hurt someone, except backwards.

Watch to make sure Mr. Chompers gets him, then we need to get control of your chain-chomp before it wrecks the shop, or finds the shopkeep.

>>801708
Well I've never heard of anything surviving being eaten. So just make sure his other minion can't save his boss.

>>801713
You'd think so but voodoo users are tricky, you've heard that they can be buried 10 feet underground and appear back on above ground in less than an hour.

Voodoos nothing like Demonic Magic or Miracles. Demonic Magic involves drawing energy from the Aether and demons and using it to cast spells, the same with Miracles but a shrine and catalyst are required to cast and the magic is provided by gods.

but Voodoo doesn't draw energy from any outside source, voodoo just takes the laws of the world and bends them depending on how the user sees fit. Of course its more complicated than that but its still weird as hell.

>>801712
You know of a similar technique using demonic magic so you understand how this may work, but that would mean this guys unkillable, no there's gotta be some limit to his power. You've just gotta find what is is.

>>801716
He's trying to stop the summon from eating him. Either that'll actually harm him or he has to pay something to keep his voodoo going. Either way looks like you can keep going until he dies.

>there's gotta be some limit to his power
He can probably only stop himself being killed so much before he actually gets killed.

>>801715
This sounds like a good idea.

Kidnap his minion and force it out of him! "It" being the price of using Voodoo powers.

Shoot out his knees so the Chomper can eat him.
Sure he won't die, but he'll be stuck in there long enough for you to take out his other minion.

>>801716
Your summon has distracted him from you! Take a shot at his leg or something! Try not to hit your own summon!

Hold up a moment before you make a major tactical mistake. You've lost track of this voodoo boss' surviving goon, which means Fate'll make sure he'll pop up again at the worst time and somehow screw everything up for you. He could run out the front door and attack you, or has fled down into the basement and is fighting Ulrik. Or he could simply spot you trying to aim at his boss and call you out. So find that mook and put a bullet through his head or heart first to take him out of the equation. And since his boss is tied up resisting getting chomped and his voodoo is on cooldown, you won't have to worry about him until his magic recovers. Now, about how long would you guess that is?

Pull out your mirror and carefully use it to peek over the window frame, survey the scene and try and locate the mook, then reposition for a better shot on him if you have to.

Did you notice if there was a back way into the shop? Or if not, if there was a back room? While if there's a entrance back there it's probably locked, it'll be good info to know for later if you have to flee out that way for some reason.

Also, what're the odds that this fight'll bring the Regent Church authorities down on Ulrik's place? This mess hasn't been subtle in the slightest and you did summon a demon right on the sidewalk. If there was a God-fearin' follower watchin' they'll be running to the nearest guard station to tattle. And even if you're victorious here and save Ulrik, he'll be massively pissed off if the Church descends and seizes and searches his shop, and probably soon after arrest him.

>>801727
>>801731
Why are you suggesting to aim at his legs? I'd think it'd be better to aim for his elbow or shoulder so he can't hold the gluttony demon back from chomping down on him.
