When everyone is ready, the team sets out to finish the floor. This ends up taking a bit of time though as after another tight squeeze, they have to climb through two more pits, thankfully empty. B...
2023-05-29 07:30:01 +0000 UTC View PostJim was the first to react. He wasn’t on the side the Guard was attacking from, but that suited his combat style anyway. It would almost seem like an unfair match. Jim didn’t have magic.

2023-05-26 12:30:39 +0000 UTC View PostBack with Jason, despite each hit pushing him back, it was the tardigroid’s fists that failed first. The cracks spread far enough that the chitin shattered, leaving the monster with jelly-like ha...
2023-05-24 15:40:29 +0000 UTC View PostThere is a reason for the saying about a lion using its full strength, even when hunting a rabbit. Jason isn't sure if it is literal, but in this case, the boss was finding the literal part of that...
2023-05-24 15:39:51 +0000 UTC View PostThis time, the group wasn’t as lucky while descending. The myconids in the pit managed to spot Jeremy as he climbed down. It wasn’t on purpose or anything, just dumb luck that one of them looke...
2023-05-19 15:06:57 +0000 UTC View PostThe dungeon boss wasn’t just one body melded to another. There was no jarring line that went from tardigrade to humanoid. Rather, the front section of the torso simply raised upwards, freeing the...
2023-05-17 14:18:04 +0000 UTC View PostBright and early, Rosha returns to the trap. With the fronds taken care of, she could pass through on her own. However, she wasn’t looking to get a solo beat down from the dungeon boss.

2023-05-17 14:17:43 +0000 UTC View PostOf course the prepared mycelium pseudo-wood was a wonderful thing as well. Though that kind of stuff would be left to others to care about. Jeremy didn’t really have a hand in building the actual...
2023-05-12 11:13:06 +0000 UTC View PostWhile the party wasn’t 100% on board with continuing, in the end they had come prepared to scale a cliff or two so turning back now would feel bad. In particular, Bill pointed out the fact they s...

2023-05-10 12:36:05 +0000 UTC View PostIt takes Rosha over ten minutes to touch anything. While she is relatively sure that the triggers for the trap are only located where she can see stuff, well, she can’t see the other parts to det...

I only drew one herd of goats and a single aquatic cow. Also, the mushrooms would be thicker, but I wasn't going to draw them all.
2023-05-09 04:59:27 +0000 UTC View PostNext morning, it is safe to say the town noticed the new instances on the sixth floor. Jim was thankful that he had been burning the midnight oil last night after the delve and caught it. That allo...
2023-05-05 10:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostNeither Jason nor Rosha really had a response for what Courtney had said, so they all settled in to heal up. While only Jason had been hurt by the monster, you don’t exactly come away unscathed w...
2023-05-03 12:21:02 +0000 UTC View PostThe irl day passes, quickly for some and much slower for others. Some of that doesn’t even have to do with one day becoming five while in VR. Still, by the time Rosha is able to log back into Neo...

2023-04-28 10:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostJim stretches as Jeremy finishes what should be the last Udoroot. They’d been keeping count and knew that there were only 20 of the things on the floor. Not that knowing this makes them any less ...
2023-04-28 10:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostRachel stared up at the ceiling. She had died, though this wasn't the first time. Rather, while playing space games she had died an uncountable number of times. After all, deep space in a more real...
2023-04-26 10:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostCourtney sighs, she had spent so many resources on so many strange things. Though she had to admit, it likely worked to confuse Rachel's dad. He was likely trying to find what she was really resear...
2023-04-26 10:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostDoyle and Ally turn their focus to the newer bags. Those, while still easily felt, weren’t free from problems. If the old bag felt like it was covered in a fog, the new bags had the barest wisps ...
2023-04-21 10:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostAs Jason cultivates and his mom wonders what is going on, Courtney has her work cut out for her. It took a good while to pep up Rachel, but that was still in VR so she still had a few days to work ...
2023-04-19 10:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostJason stretches and yawns. He had been clearing out his meridians for a few hours now and the progress was nothing to sneeze at. Though he was still in his prime for initial cultivation.

2023-04-14 10:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostWith all the monsters for the eleventh floor placed, Doyle mentally takes a step back and looks it over. The design plan he originally had was a little lost. While you could see that the ceiling wa...
