Mission: END OF THE HEROIC AGE: FALLOUT
MISSION INFORMATION
The Epic Season Finale. KOKOL battles the Feline Empire for control of Degrassi Knoll- and teams up with them to fight off a bigger threat- a zombie apocalypse.
Other than the disaster of 2009, this mission features the longest roleplaying period AiL has had. Being a Season Finale, I encouraged our players to bring their very best for the two subquests featured here, simply titled "Degrassi" and "Zombie." The result was 22 different roleplays- with 21 actually written for the mission. :)

Oddities and snafu's aside, we covered a lot of ground in this one, and featured an impressive array of characters, plots and subplots, and writing styles and moods. Do yourself a favor- be sure to try to give this epic mission a read before you skip to the spoilers.
You won't regret it!

And now that you've hopefully done that, here's the notes on the mission, including the scoring and the final points totals for AiL's first ever season. Points are being reset for season 2, upcoming.


MISSION INFO

Mission Notice - archive copy
Posted by: Dash

 
Hi, everyone! Spoiler- I HOPE You read mission 10's Finale and 11's Rollover before reading this!

 

You'll notice the Rollover is divided into 5 parts. Parts IV and V are the subquests! To participate in the mission, you'll have to choose which of the two missions you're going to be doing.

The two missions are simply titled UNDEAD and DEGRASSI.

You'll want to put the title OF the mission into EACH RP title at the beginning.

Sample titles..

UNDEAD: Fighting Zombies
DEGRASSI: Doing Evil

If you happen to do a co write that involves people from both missions, title it CROSSOVER.

Example - CROSSOVER: Fun in Seaside Town

 
General notes. I figure ingame wise, this mission should take place over several days or even weeks to give you time to change up the pacing in your stories..

Seaside Town is half burnt, and half occupied by zombies!!

Really.. this was the whole point of the last mission. Some parts of it are now ash. Others are almost untouched. The town is almost totally abandoned of civilians. KOKOL and KOL forces are pushed back into the safe areas - Right Side, Clan district, and Market Square. There's battle scars and damage done throughout the town, including a gorge near the town entrance. Finally, there may be pockets of Knob Goblins left.. and of course, the recently dead are coming to life everywhere, even the safe zones.. although I'd assume KOKOL is removing the bodies to prevent this.

 
* Catrina Whiteclaw has taken over the Knob Goblin Army.

More details to come during Roleplaying. KOKOL doesn't know why, but if you've read AIL, you might.. just remember, your character probably won't.

* Several AIL members have joined the Feline Army.

Specifically, Catrina first recruited Raw Hide. Since then, she's recruited Kadlin Bearsmasher, Becky Joy, and Vixen. We also left Shamus getting a "join or die" offer. Probably with somewhat generous promises and terms. Please PM me if you're interested in joining the faction or making a new character for it.

*Elite 7 no more- 3 Elite are gone!

Grillhamo is currently missing, and Nipha (the succubus dragon) and Amras (Feena's lover) have both been written out of AIL along with Feena and Riko Grillhamo should turn up, soon. Also note that although you can use the Black Paladin if you wish, he's most likely staying out of the fight for a while. Grillhamo and Paladin should be addressed sometime soon, so watch the roleplays.

Specific mission notes to follow!!

Remember, when doing a mission, always ask yourself why your character is doing it, and what the personal meaning of the mission, *if any* is to them. Even if it's just doing the job out of a sense of duty to the clan.

UNDEAD mission notice - archive copy
Posted by: Dash

 
* The undead have risen! NOTES for the UNDEAD Subquest

 
Seriously, you should already know this. The Knob Goblin King ordered the Succubus dragon to cast a spell to bring "fallen allies" (Ours and his) as zombies under his control. The spell was interrupted by the Jester King of Beasts, who used it to instead cast.. ahh.. another spell. The result is the zombies rising around the Kingdom have no loyalty to the Knob Goblins. NOTE: The idea here is the more recently undead they are, the less like typical zombies they are. Recently undead won't be zombie slow, nor will they be hurt by healing. Likewise, they might not have any typical advantages you'd expect from a zombie.

If you want more traditional zombie stories, I'd advise "writing up" the spell as affecting things

* Your Subquest, should you choose to accept it..

Fighting the zombies is only the first step. Someone has to work towards finding a way to stop or reverse the spell. Just do your best to write some really good stories and co writes.

* Feline Army and KOKOL working together.. maybe

The word from the top of both King MTiger and Queen Catrina- KOKOL and the Knob Goblins (and their allies, the Muri-Dan, the rats, and some few newly recruited Knollish allies) are supposed to work together against this new zombie threat, which might spell the end of the world. More information on the Knollish tie in is in the Rollover.

No Cattaras, No Elite 7 "helpers"

Anyone currently up for an Elite 7 spot (including Mimi and Blake) would be assigned to Degrassi Knoll under Cattaras.. see the other mission for details. The other Elite, those who aren't missing or inactive, could be in either mission, but this mission should have most or all of them.

DEGRASSI mission notice - archive copy
Posted by: Dash

 
Degrassi Knoll revamp
Information for the subquest, DEGRASSI

 
There have been key differences with the KOL Degrassi Knoll and the AIL Degrassi Knoll since our first mission. In AIL, they were originally and until recently subversively controlled by the Penguin Mafia and the Knob Goblin, rival factions who exploited their control over Degrassi Knoll ever since.

In our first ever AIL Mission, #0, KOKOL forces discreetly attempted to help things out there. Instead, we ended up fighting the Knollish as much as the Knobs or Penguins, and Blahking got captured. Other matters then took our attention away from them.

Also established: A MUCH smaller village near Degrassi Knoll known as South Degrassi

 
Recent Degrassi news!

 
Somehow, Catrina has taken control and is waging war against the Penguins. If you go there, you'll have to sneak in past a near flood of Knob Goblins, who are backed up by Knollish guards, rats, and the ratlike humanoid Muri-Dan.

If you're not sure how it's set up, reread the Rollover. If that doesn't help, post a question in game discussions or PM me.

 
Few or no Zombies; KOKOL vrs. Feline Empire!

 
Something seems to drive any of the few undead to leave the town. If you're on this mission, explore why that might be. You're also at odds with the Knollish and especially the Knob Goblins here. Don't JUST restrain yourself to KOL enemies; give me new variations too!

They really do not want you here and may attempt lethal force. The Knollish have been fooled into believing KOKOL are troublemakers sent by the Penguins, are are new number one enemies.

 
Will the Penguins fight or help you?

 
That one is pretty much up to you. They might not want you here, either, but they might also see you as a potential ally.

 

WHY are you here?!

 
This is a more freeform mission than the other. It would be nearly impossible to drive the Knob Goblins out in a single mission, especially with the zombie situation. If you're a member of their side, you're probably going to either want to work to strengthen the alliance (and the Knob Goblin position of strength) within Degrassi, or you're going to want to fight of KOKOL and the Penguins.

IF you're with KOKOL, you might want to deliver a major blow to the Feline Army. You might want to get the Knollish people to start seeing the truth about the situation. You might want to drive the Penguins out, or you might want to strengthen their position against the Feline Empire.

Whatever you do, just do your best to make your goals clear in your roleplays.

Degrassi RP Notes intro - archive copy
Posted by: Dash

 
RP NOTES go here! The Feline Empire incited an uprising in Degrassi Knoll. The Feline Empire consists of the Knob Goblins, now under the control of Catrina Whiteclaw.. See last mission's finale and this mission's Rollover for details on that!

If you were given an opportunity to join the Feline Army during Rollover, you can expect grudging support from the Muri Dan, Knob Goblins, and most of Degrassi Knoll, although some might oppose you, overtly or otherwise.

KOKOL, meanwhile, might have limited assistance from the KOKOL guards.. mainly in order to provide NPC fodder for both sides. You can expect to meet heavy resistance with the Feline Army, who have about the whole areas of Degrassi Knoll and South Degrassi surrounded.

Becky and Fumblies's first Crossover - archive copy
Posted by: Dash

 
There is a new, short Crossover roleplay up! :) Becky Grubb, who is doing DEGRASSI, has a short 'meeting' with Sir Fumblies, who is doing UNDEAD.

It's a short one. Becky has four Knob Goblins for her own little 'platoon' as I think Dark Catrina called it. Fumblies ends up deciding to pick the best 8 of 20 or so Knob Goblins that are up for trying to be a part of this.

It's a short rp.. that's all that happens.. Becky takes her four back to Seaside Town :)

Becky and Gail's second Crossover - archive copy
Posted by: Dash

 
Ahh, I got confused and had Becky listed as the Undead mission - but she's in the Knollish mission, actually!

Or she will be once I send her there.

Becky did a couple roleplays with Awakensun (Gail) that I should mention here. They met and fought zombies.. and saved a little girl! They got into a disagreement when Becky mentioned she was with the Knob Goblins now.. So Becky left, and that made Gail sad!

But in the next roleplay, Becky came back and they were happy! They figured how to get into Seaside Town with the help of four Knob Goblins who were with Gail.. They basically figured how to open the door to the town.. then Becky got a note and had to bail, leaving Gail behind. She told Gail to find KOKOL, not mention she'd met Becky, and get some help.

And Becky and her 4 Knob Goblins set out for Degrassi!

Janos, Lapine and Dash - archive copy
Posted by: Dash

 
I set a story which manages to debut 3 more into the Degrassi mission although we'll hopefully explain in more detail why they end up doing that mission in a future co write.

A couple of townguards find a near-dead Sebastian Dash and debate if he can be healed before the zombie curse turns him into a killing machine. Lapine walks in, saying she's sure she can heal him- or take him down if she has to.. New AIL member Janos enters promising he has her back for this.

She managed to leave him healed, but still unconscious, at the end. Janos takes his mysterious leave as Lapine thanks the guards.. end.

Fumblies and Becky - archive copy

 
Dash and Todd's first co-write - archive copy
Posted by: Dash

 
Two things to note here.. Becky had an appearance in Fumblies's "Fumblies Command 3" to help Fumblies, then Daisuke fight a dragon oh no!

I've also got a roleplay up for Dash. This spoils the ending. Sorry. Dash 'wakes up' at his campsite from his injuries, not stopping to think about how he got back to his campsite without a single memory of it. He does see reflections of the last few missions in the campfire, once he lit his otherwise nightmare dark campsite. He realizes Catrina must have allowed Raw Hide to nail Dash from behind.. his mind fights to understand it as shadows creep up, ensnaring Dash and trying to drag him into the underworld. Oddly, Catrina's goddess shows up in radiant light, driving the shadows back and using her magic to partially heal Dash. She explains to him that Catrina has "fallen" out of the Goddess's "pride," but encourages Dash to stay strong and believe in Catrina. She speaks of the Dark ones being involved, as well.

Dash then truly wakes up. He wasn't at his campsite days later, in some undefined medical facility. Todd Blackpaws explains to Dash he'd been out 'a couple weeks.' Dash tried to make sense of it, but was suffering from his injuries too much. He drifted to sleep again, eager to be healed and return to the fight.

Becky and Vixen's only crossover - archive copy
Posted by: Dash

 
Becky and Vixen co write goes here - Becky is assigned to do the Degrassi mission, though she's taking her time getting there!

 
Surprisingly, the roleplay starts with Vixen and Becky in a room at the Typical Tavern. Seducing each other.. Vix is surprised Becky has 'that' side to her, but the two end up making out rather passionately.. The story time skips to morning after a few fun details, they find not only a bill or ten.. Becky's four Knob Goblins then burst into the room one at a time.. bringing them breakfast. YAY!

The four Knobs and Becky and Vixen agree to skip out on the bill.. Vixen announces she has to chop some undead's head off. Becky says she's sorry but she has to go work Degrassi.

However, the rp ends with them breaking out- and being summoned via horseback to Seaside Town to help out Kadlin Bearsmasher. Vixen isn't interested in the sewers, though, and asks for a bodyguard or two to help hunt undead.

This should lead nicely into the Finale for Vixen and a Kadlin/ Becky co write.

Undead RP notes - archive copy
Posted by: Dash

 
RP NOTES for the Zombie related mission go here!!

To recap, the Knob Goblin King tried to cast a spell to raise the dead during the Finale of the last mission.

Jester King of Beasts interrupted it to use it to power up a spell to tempt Catrina Whiteclaw's evil side to take control of her. As a side effect, it caused the zombies to turn on basically everyone. I don't know if Catrina has any clue what caused it.

However, the Feline Empire and KOKOL are supposed to be working together to fight the threat of the zombies, figure what caused it, and find a way to stop it. How we'll do this and how well we'll work together is up to our players.

Though you might run into Elite 7, the prospective Elite 7 have been sent to the DEGRASSI mission to work under Cattaras, so probably won't be here.

Mission notes should have more information!

Posted by: Reminesence

 
Kadlin goes over her reasons for joining the evil side.

She is temped by the dark sword that Konall had thrown away.

Keep in mind that Kadlin still sees her self as a mostly good person doing pretty much the right thing.

(Editor's note: There's also a Konall roleplay where he and Maximal Thordicus fight zombies. noteworthy since Konall meets his sister, finds she has his old cursed sword, and realizes she's going evil. After leaving her, he renounces magic anew as corrupt and evil, refusing to even take a healing potion to cure himself.)

*Two* roleplays are up, related to the Undead mission.

Both co writes with Becky Joy!

------------------

Becky and Gail fight with

Becky Joy meets Gail (Awakensun!) They team up to save a little girl from three zombies.. when they start to get along, Becky mentions she is with the Knob Goblins, which Awakensun didn't like. They got into a little slap fight, then Becky left.. Gail suddenly realized she was on, and ran around in a depression til she fell asleep. (She's used to being around people, not being alone!)

---------------------------

The Fumblies Command

 
Then in a co write with Fumblies (who is doing the Degrassi mission) Becky is basically there with a squad of 4 Knob Goblins who are under her control- including the very first Knob Goblin she got to join her during a previous mission.

Fumblies tries to order them around military style, without much success.. He ends up deciding to pick the best 8 out of about 20 Knob Goblins.. Becky heads off towards Seaside Town.. and we end the roleplay on that note! :)

Spreading the Word: Fumblies Command 2

Fumblies has picked his eight Knob under the leadership of NPC Knob veteran Scaros.

Fumblies commission a unit banner: navy blue banner with the symbol of the Feline Empire in gold on a red out stretched palm up open hand

The platoon leaves and spends the next few days heading towards Seaside Town spreading the word of the Feline Empire's glory.

Finally the platoon gets close to Seaside Town and comes upon an undead reactment of the Knob Goblin/KOKOL war.

The battle stops as something starts to rise out of the center of the undead battlefield.

Kadlin's last solo - archive copy
Posted by: Konall

 
UNDEAD: Warped and Twisted is about Kadlin taking a goblin elite and mutating him into a monster in the knob laboratories as she seeks to master magic. It doesn’t impact other people’s stories too much, unless someone wants to face one of her abominations or something, which would be cool. Most of them retained enough intelligence to act on their own, but some require magical mind influence to get to work, without it they're berserking machines.

Anyway, the main point of this story is showing how far Kadlin’s come already. She used to be a healer, but it’s hinted that she’s losing her ability to heal as her understanding of life magic is twisted by the sword. Whereas before she cured diseases and regenerated limbs on warriors, now she’s twisting people into horrendous monsters, which is an incredibly torturous process for the victim.

Keep in mind that she still sees herself as a good person. She’ll do a few superficial things to be nice. But she’s also gone so far down the path of darkness she’s lost her ability to discern right from wrong. She thinks she’s doing good even as she commits atrocities.

Becky and Gail's last crossover - archive copy
Posted by: Dash

 
oh yeah.. there's another Gail post up - a co write with Becky Joy. Becky's actually in the Degrassi mission. The two meet up again, but this time, Becky brought about four Knob Goblins with her.

The door (gate) to Seaside Town is sealed. After much debating over it, Gail (Awakensun) and Becky decide to go south to find a strong animal Gail can ask to break the door down. However, that it cut short - as they turn to leave, they hear Becky's Knob Goblin foursome pushing the door open, then found out they had found the key to it earlier, but Becky and Gail weren't listening!

We found out the names to the Knob Goblins. The old one, whom Becky had met and recruited during a previous mission, is named Darson. There's a girl named Goblina in the group, and a pair of brothers named Red and Green. They might or might not remind you of a couple other brothers. Who knows?

Oh, at the end Becky got a note saying she had to go to Degrassi, so she encouraged Gail to stay in Seaside Town, find some KOKOL allies, and not mention Becky to them!

Konall and Kadlin's last solo - archive copy
Posted by: Konall

 
Kadlin and Konall take on a new, powerful caster named Slit. Slit is a powerful fighter and he controls magic related to space and time. His principle spells are levitation, teleportation, precognition, and controlling the speed of local time. He can use levitation to increase his own speed, move enemies, and in conjunction with throwing knives to make the knives curve toward the target and plunge deeper. He can put up a physical wall or a patch of slow time that slows down everything in it, making it easy for him to dodge attacks.

Slit usually sees a half-second into the future so he can be more accurate and dodge better. However, if he concentrates, he can see much further.

Normally, Slit uses his spells to augment his natural abilities until he's surpassed all human limits, and then becomes an unstoppable killing machine.

Slit's equipment is enchanted and made from petrified time. It's unknown how he got his hands on it.

Slit takes out one of Kadlin's squads, complete with one of her monsters. Konall and Kadlin fight the guy for awhile, and they all end up nearly killing each other. Kadlin has to pull out her avatar form, which allows her to turn into a bear.

Not my roleplay but Aleena's debut! :)

Basically, we see her and another elf on a space ship far beyond the technology of the AIL world.. the ship is crashing.. the two elves, both dressed in similar suits made of nanites, go crashing out the window, where their outfits quickly change to harnesses and wings, allowing them to battle mid air.. before they end up crashing into the oceans just off the Kingdom of Loathing shore.. This is a lead in to the next Live RP :)

Fumblies Command 4: It goes bump...part 2

Starts within a few minutes of the end of Fumblies Command 3....

The group from FC3 is talking about what to do next while Fumblies is thinkign about the problem of how the undead dragon had ended up near Seaside town.

While everyone is talking Fumblies disappears without anyone noticing.

The discussion continues on with Scaros suggesting that they find the source of the undead problem in Seaside Take deal with it.

Meanwhile, Fumblies finds himself in the invisible realm amid a group of blurred figures.

These figures carry him for a while (following the path of the glowing foot prints he had found in FC3)

The figures finally stop and tie Fumblies up.

After about an hour Fumblies falls asleep and finds himself dreaming.

The dream (actually the mirror world) takes place in a meadow.

In the dream Fumblies meets a Knob Goblin named Kwadlin who tells him that the only way to end the undead problem was to kill the imprisioned Knob Goblin King.

Unknown to Fumblies is that Kwadlin wants the Knob King dead for an entirely diffent purpose....

Fumblies wakes up still invisible and the blurred figures carry him of heading in and unknown direction....

Scorecard - archive copy
Posted by: AiL

 
Hi all! I'm posting the mission scores here!

I'll just include a few lines on each person, plus the voter's comments on who won. I might post more detailed notes later on, too. Those interested in getting a little insight into the voter’s comments are welcome to do so here. Handled by a fellow e-wrestling handler from Global Extreme Wrestling.. the handler of Ichiro and Arata Tanaka.

Ichiro: "If I had to pick a winner: Becky, Kadlin, Fumblies, Dash, in order of preference of who I think should win. Numbers shall not be added, because I am not exactly sure how up for that I am."

Congrats to the four! That's two per mission, fortunately. Remember.. it was double points. I did the points myself with input from Funki. Ichiro might be voting additional thoughts here in the future.

 
DEGRASSI

 
Sashiro Shadow: 15 - He only got one showing in, and while it was a solid showing, it was also a short co write.

Sebastian Dash: 35 - I'm not sure what to say here. Dash started late, but finished strong through a series of co writes with Todd. He also made the Live RP!

Janos: 5 - Though he's got definite potential, Janos only dabbled his feet in the AIL goodness this mission. I hope we'll be seeing more of him soon!

Lapine: 10 - Showed up in a co write and a Live RP, but was only a light presence in both. Had a solid showing for what little there was of her.

Todd Blackpaws: 28 - Todd had some very solid co writes with Dash, joining Dash in the Live RP as well. Probably came closer to Dash than the score indicates since he was in nearly every roleplay Dash was in, as well as the Live RP.. but the voter had Dash has second..

Becky Joy: 40 - Winner! Although she didn't score any solo pieces, a co write with Vixen, two each with Fumblies and Awakensun, and a genuinely fun, hyperactive personality carried her through to first place in our voter's eyes.

Samus XTreme: 32 - One single and strong showing carried him to third place, in my eyes. He always has a unique way of going about thing, and he's majorly fun to write into Finales. He's continuing to subtly improve in both his humor and storytelling abilities.

 
ZOMBIES

 
Konall Bearsmasher: 36 - Had more of a focus on his comedic efforts than Kadlin, although I found their meeting suitably heartbreaking and played off well to match the character's.. well.. character. Was it a bias against comedy that cost him the four points, or did her pieces simply work better? Maybe a little of each. But still, no one can deny it was a strong showing.

Aleena: 22 - Aleena debut late with a tiny prologue piece and a Live RP.. where it's hard to shine on one's own. The voter indicated he feels she should be quite the RP'er for AIL in the future, though!

Awakensun: 24- Kind of drifted out early after a couple co writes with Becky. Becky of course, went on to do pieces with Vixen, Kadlin, Fumblies and others. Awakensun and Becky provided a couple fun pieces.. . silly and random, though maybe a bit too much of each.

Maximal Thordicus: 4 - Written by Konall as a secondary once or twice, and I pushed his RP into the boards - with permission- to get him officially counted for the Finale.. so only here on a technicality. :)

Kadlin Bearsmasher: 40 - Winner! Not a big surprise there. Kadlin had a strong story going, showing her descent into darkness. Kadlin had, I believe, three strong pieces.. confronting her brother early on, working with Becky and starring in her own solo piece where we see some of her dark experiments. She earned this win through constant and strong stories.

Sir Fumbles Falanges: 37 - One of the telling voter comments: "Fumblies keeps getting strictly better with each rp." Yup! Fumblies managed to make a few co writes and also had his own smaller series of stories going on, which is something AIL needs more of. He really gets comfortable in his role in the Feline Empire here! His effort here is to be admired greatly.

Catrina Whiteclaw: 16 - Only one showing, and though she's always a solid character, a single co write doesn't get her what she'd normally get.. actually, I guess it nearly does; she nearly earns a top ranking from a normal mission since this mission was double points. You'll see more of the reasons for her downtime in future missions, I'm told...

Vixen: 18 - Although she has a sweet argument with Todd, that doesn't come until the next mission. She had some sexy fun with Becky, which was the shocker of the RP, although the meat of it was, as the voter called it, "enough hyper happy fun joy to make me smile." Vixen's only appearance, though.

 
And that's it! I might post more comments here in the future, as I said... The FINAL points total for Season One, pending a mathematical double check. Shamus jumps to the third spot! Becky's win pushes her up couple spots as well.. Kadlin's climbs one.. Dash also takes a commanding lead over Catrina, who'd been getting closer to taking the top spot more often than not through out the season. Obviously, those that hadn't showed this mission (and several missions in some cases) generally shift further down in the ranking here.

Major jump by Sir Fumblies and, lower in the chart, Awakensun.

 
Sebastian Dash: 214
Catrina Whiteclaw: 182
Shamus XTreme: 115
Raw Hide: 111
Konall Bearsmasher: 97

Becky Joy: 86
Feena: 84
Vixen: 79
Kadlin Bearsmasher: 71
Todd Blackpaws: 59

Sir Fumblies: 49
Awakensun: 34
Riko: 32
Lapine: 30
Prince Blahking: 26

Fluffy Hamster: 24
The Guacanator: 23
Aleena: 22
The Chad: 19
Zanther Wolf: 16

Kingdom of Loathing (KOL) is a (mostly) original online game that apparently has something to do with Asymmetric Publications, LLC, and something called a Jick, who probably copyrighted and trademarked the thing up the wahoozer. Wahoozer is a word I just made up. If you don't like it, bite me. And if you refuse to bite me go to . . . ANYWAY, this is the archive for an interactive writing game based on KOL, and a specific clan within- the Kingdom of KOL. Specific characters belong to their specific owners, specifically, unless specifically stated otherwise. This game was developed by Joshua A. Dexter, with rules based in part on Mercenary and Equinox. This is a non profit game done for entertainment purposes only. If a rash develops on your imagination, desist use immediately and consult a physician, psychologist, or 1-900 psychic for further assistance. KOL forums, store, entry at Answers, KOL's entry at Archive.org, and it's entry at Wikipedia, and KOL's own wiki. - JAD!
