Chapter 14 by Nemo of Utopia Nemo of Utopia

Go After Soul Form Parts Now Or Blood For Quetzalcoatl?

["Why Not Both?"]

You Decide that you will approach other Pantheons and see what you can trade for new soul form components, and/or the promise of donating blood to help Resurrect Quetzalcoatl: or steal away from those that seem weak or hostile. You also decide to start right here with Wallungunder and his folk, knowing that their pantheon surely has gathered some other soul form components based on the speed at which yours did, and so talk to him about the possibility.

"Wallungunder, we wish to form an alliance of sorts with your Pantheon. We have decided to start looking for other Soul Form components to enhance our race of worshipers, and we are willing to make deals with other Pantheons to secure what we need. If you and yours have a part we want we ask that we are allowed to negotiate an exchange of service or parts of our own that you would want in trade, what say you?" You ask, and Wallungunder consults privately with his pantheon...


Questions To Vote On This Chapter:

1: Wallungunder Will...:
1a: Accept.
1b: Accept Provisionally*.
*(Answer Question 3.)
1c: Politely Reject The Proposal.
1d: Violently Reject The Proposal.

2: The Aboriginal Pantheon Has the Following Soul Form Component(s)*:
*(Vote for one to five items.)

2a: Humanoid Legs. (Makes Your Species Quasi Humanoid.)
2b: A 'Mammalian Reproduction' Pearl. (Your Species will give birth to live young and suckle their infants.)
2c: An Extra Heart. (Increases Your Species Vitality.)
2d: A Black Obsidian Eye... (Grants the Species spell-like abilities.)
2e: "Double, Triple, or Nothing.". (Pick another component: if this vote wins for that component they have up to three copies of it and are more willing to trade for it. However, I roll 1d3 On a 3 they have three copies, on a 2 two copies, but on a 1 they have used their one copy on their own race and are unwilling to trade. This item also counts as two items for voting purposes: one for the base item and one for itself.)
2f: Another Skunk Cabochon. (Why would you want two of this?)
2g: Combat Gland. (This gland allows the race which has it to enter a berzerker fury in combat yet still remain calm and collected: both more powerful physically AND not impaired mentally.)
2h: Humanoid Arms. (Can Hold More Tools.)
2i: Indicolite Brain Enhancer. (This tourmaline gem adds several useful abilities to the recipient species brains: they gain enhanced senses, the ability to 'bank' sleep: sleeping for say 12 hours one night and then only 4 the next, [Upper Limit on 'banking' sleep, 40 hours banked: May 'Bank' no more than 4 hours a night,] the ability to detect many dangerous chemicals by taste alone, as well as being able to track things by Scent.)
2j: Jade Pleasure Crystal. (The Species made with this crystal have a limited telepathy, allowing them to share sensation through direct physical contact. This gives them a +20 bonus on Heal and Handle Animal rolls.)
2k: Poison Fangs. (Exactly what it says on the packet - proper fangs for poison delivery. Includes paralytic poison glands.)
2*: User Write-In.
*(Write-in votes must be extremely concise: any write-ins more than 5 words long for the name and/or 40 for the description are disqualified, as are any using words of more than 5 Syllables. Also please number your vote as though adding it to the end of this list, not with an asterisk. Furthermore, I reserve the right to reject any/all user write-ins which I feel do not fit the spirit of the story: Don't whine if this happens.)

*(Which You Could Trade For Or Capture...)

3: Wallungunder's Provisions:
(You may skip this section if you didn't vote for 1b, but if you do you have no input on the results if 1b wins.)
(Chose as many Compatible Items as you like...)

3a: Any Exchange Must Be Only 1 Soul Form Component For Another.*†
(No trading work for parts... Hey, didn't He JUST do that with you?)
3b: Any Exchange Must Be For A Term Of Indenture.*‡
(They will not 'trade' parts because they know you are a slippery trickster.)
3c: Any Exchange must be for both Indenture AND another part.*
(That price seems a bit steep...)
3d: Wallungunder is willing to GIVE you the parts above: but you must merge your Pantheon with his and accept his leadership...*※

3e: They Want The Skunk Cabochon.※‡
3f: They Don't Want The Skunk Cabochon.※‡

3g: The Terms of Indenture are to be between 1 and 6 days to be served Immediately.†※
3h: The Terms of Indenture are to be between 1 and 6 weeks to be served within a year.†※
3i: The Terms of Indenture are to be between 1 and 6 months to be served within a decade.†※

3k: You Reject the merging of the pantheons.†‡

*†‡※(All Items marked with notation symbols are mutually exclusive with any items marked with any of the same symbols.)

Onward!
