Author Topic: Tales from the Ethereal - tribal Against Skeletons  (Read 3811 times)



by popular opinion this is without a doubt the only real option in this situation

rip out your own skeleton and show him you are one and the same


Luckily for you, being a demon, you're relatively familiar with magic.


Using some quick cunning you devise a spell.

-10 MAGIC POINTS


then screech out "rattle me bones"

: Haha, rattle me bones! Look you reaper bastard, we're all the same here!




: Rattle me... come on... I don't sound like... I mean you're not even...




: Actually I'm pretty sure that's tribal.


Regardless, it worked. He let his magical grip go. Though now you are a skeleton.

Claim that shooting him was just a prank and that skeletons shouldn't arrest their own kind
While he's busy talking back to you try to shoot a fireball or something with your magic. Skeletons aren't fireproof, right?

strip his suit down
and tell him we are the same race

support system.


Alistair, the reaper, briefly rubs what would be his temples as he subdues his headache. He needn't put up with this, after-all, he is one of the immortals of the underworld.

He swallows any bad tempers and continues.

: Listen, demon.

: Sorry, do my jokes not tickle your funnybone?

: Uhhuh, whatever. Here's the deal.


: A long time ago your father, the king of your village and the central plains leader of demon kind, made a deal with me, and when you make a deal with a reaper you have to pay the price- it's the rules. Now, seeing as your father is deader than a door nail, the debt is owed by you. You can either accept to repay the debt or live the rest of eternity in agony and hell-fire.


: And just how much did my father owe you?

: One pure, human soul.



: HOW THE HELL AM I GOING GOING TO BE ABLE TO AFFORD THAT?

now you may shoot the skeleton

dude that's ez pz, go to the local school and shoot it up, children are always innocent.

dude thats easy just find some bandits and break their legs or something

pay him back with interest

Well, attacking the reaper isn't a good idea. So you need to find a human and take their soul.

Find the nearest human village/town/settlement and look for that one starfish nobody likes, assuming he exists. Try to steal his soul.
Also ask the Reaper why the big guys that helped you are chained up

> What's the problem? Just give him a virginal sacrifice. Unless there aren't any virgins in this realm anymore...


: Who here is a virgin?

There is a long pause.




The Interfectorum now only has 10 rounds!


: There, see? Pure soul.

: But it's not human.

: Yeah, but you get the point.

Also ask the Reaper why the big guys that helped you are chained up


: Wait, why'd you bring those two if you were just going to shoot them?

: They were gifts for you. Demons... eat trolls, right?

: What? No?

: Well anyway, I tied you up cause I knew you were gonna try and shoot me before I could explain myself. Very clever thing you did back there, getting out of your restraints. I'm impressed.

: I still feel like you're beating around the bush here. How am I supposed to find an untainted human soul in the Ethereal? You think I can just hope in some portal and jump to the aboveworld and take one? Who even knows what the humans have been up to these last few centuries. They might have developed atomic weapons by now.

: Nope nope. They're still barely out of the Victorian age. They literally just had their industrial revolution, like, yesterday.

: This does nothing to help me.

: Look, buy one off the black market. I don't care how you get it, just get it. There's a trading post just east of here. And do what you will with the leftover troll, I couldn't really care less.



With that, he teleports away, leaving you only with your thoughts and and shocked and scared troll.

tell the troll where to go

Comfort the other troll from the loss

become adventure buddys with the troll
