BUILDINGGGGG

A guy was watching us, he was a freak. He was in the fog and he was probably pickling his tickle or some crap like that. We traversed the building but honestly i had a terrible headache and forgot most of what happened except the guy inside the building just shot himself. Then, there was me. Alternate me. I actually still dont know what’s up with the guy. Genuinely feel bad because he would’ve absolutely smashed us if we all didn’t have something that debuffed him to death. He had my inflated ass stats too probably so he could’ve just went like: Mark, Unsettling Stare, and then kill us all. Actually too bad for him. Me and Justin lowkey insane dps, Luka with their insane versatility and a busted weapon and Raya with their mob psycho 100. He should’ve went for justin first since he ramps up, then me. Then either luka or raya but either way. He was cooked from the start. We’re just simply better. 

Anyways we burnt the freaky page and I felt pretty dizzy, dazed even. I’m writing this right after what happened like really really fast on my phone (thping) typing and ohhh my gosh my head!! Ahhhhh i think im falling assssleeep sleep sleep sleeeep sleep zzz zz z z z z z z z z z z z z z z z z z z z z zz. Zz z z z z z z z z z z z z z z z z z

Rest In Peace, Jerardo Savion Macalipay Dayag

The man was a staple to the Filipino acting industry, with him gone. The celebrity world is in shambles. The news of his death saddens me. I can’t believe he took his own life in a holding cell just days before his trial. What’s strange is that his body wasn’t present at the scene. But sources say that the giant splatters and mounds of coagulated blood was his, as seen from the high alcohol and tobacco content found in it.

I’m actually pretty sure he isn’t dead and he’s just out there. With things unable to go back the way it was for him, I’m sure he has a vendetta against us. Hopefully he is dead though. Anyways I tried attuning to rella but fucked up, hurt my mind really bad so I just slumped over and fell asleep. I need to know more about magic in order to find him.

The Dice Contraption

My Manifest Ability is odd, it created illusions that served as the real thing. It was and still is helpful, but at times its usage and abilities tended to fluctuate. Ever since I got the Dice Contraption that was left by Miguel alongside a bunch of other things, my power changed. My power seems to stem from the item now, as if I was only using a fraction of its ability before. The power seemed to be unstable because it wasn’t in the right vessel to operate, but now it is. Finally, I can properly create as I wish. 

It still retained a lot of its abilities, but instead of it giving me terrible headaches trying to make something with as large as an SUV, and being unable to create special certain materials. I can create them freely based on my skills and abilities, and create weird and potentially dangerous things. I can also make explosives. Good luck with that.

Point of No Return on a Bereaved Road.

After the events that happened that day, I had a dream. A lone signpost stood atop a snowy mountain. Moving closer, it is revealed to me that it was, not in fact, a signpost. Yet it still serves the function of a signpost. Stiff corpses point to various directions with their frozen arms. What awaits at the end of the paths these fingers point to?

The burst open arm points north, leading to an ashen village, razed to the ground. The buildings were in ruins, as though this village had once been an epicenter of a great explosion. The snowstorm carries with it a burnt scent. A cabin stands out amidst this ashen ruin buried under ash and snow. I turn back. Disheartened.

The warning hand points east, a cacophonous arrangement of screams emanating from a dark cave. I turn back. Fearful.

The broken hand points west, A flowerbed appears past the snowstorm. It looks rather out of place. Maybe this can serve as a place of respite? I turn back. Reluctantly.

I stand where I once stood before, with the corpses still pointing. I decided to go to the west, the flower bed served as a sign of hope within this cold and desolate lands. But then, two specters, these otherworldly transparent figures, walk towards the east. An overwhelming power pulled me, and I could no longer take the path I wished to take. I investigate the caves, the specters no longer with me. Inside is a compass there that keeps spinning, unable to find a direction. The screams stop as soon as I picked up the compass. 

I woke up, with this compass in my hand.

First page

Christ, this isn't working. I'm starting to lose faith.

The only thing keeping me pushing is the hope to return, I just hope he'll be fucking cooperative when we meet him. God forbid 
any of us provoke him. Morons.

Recollection

No, not the school recollection, just a recollection of what had happened during today.

 

I woke up in a white space, there was a freaky obelisk and above it was a freaky cage. We took a while to bring it down but eventually did it and, it’s Raya in there for some reason? Then suddenly the wind gets freaky too and a freaky person who’s freakily almost naked jumped us and almost wrecked our arses. They had no face which was freaky too. We found out it’s actually miguel after beating his ass, and it turns out he can’t recognize us in the white space. We still don’t know where he is, but one day I will find him, and we can watch tiktok reels. 

Turns out everything that happened was a dream (wow!) and we go to school. Sir JV was racking about rational inequalities but I couldn’t pay attention because the less and greater than signs looked like a crocodile and a alligator respectively. We received a message from our Harbringer, why do we even call them that and he sends us the thumbs up emoji which brightened up my day. I screw around the lockers, I want to get a “Juniors! Batch 2025” cap from R*sh’s locker but sadly my conscience got the better of me. 

Harbring man brings us to his Harbring van, oh by the way I found a picture of rella and yellow freaky dice. Pretty cool. Yeah and we go do our next contract which was to take some artifact from an armored vehicle. We tried puncturing the tires but we kinda suck, so we didn’t. Then we went on a shopping spree in save more. I vandalized the Savemore Bathroom for a devious thing I was planning. But that plan also sucked. We then decided to kill someone, but we didn’t, but we actually did when the plan (drop propane tank I bought and attack guy) didnt work and justin killed the guy. I didn’t mention the whole building segment because we just went back and forth with that. 

Justin shot a man that was about to shoot me but the dog jumped in and used color fill tool to turn me red with dog guts. Thanks Luka. I forgot what Raya did. Anyways Justin is being interrogations, but at least we got him a #gun. The end.

Latest Completed Contracts

8 Contracts have been run in this Playgroup

Zobel

It's been 3 days since Miguel went missing, he hasn't attended school, been online, responded to any messages, its to the point that his parents have the police on this, and he didn't even leave a single trail, none, none except his notebook and his phone, his notebook containing unhinged ramblings, doodles and sigils, and his phone... Locked, maybe, this really is the key to finding him.

House Rules

Contractors from Shuta Are portable, and may play in Contracts in other Playgroups.
Shuta grants 6 Experience points to GMs who achieve the Golden Ratio.
  • Citizenship: Active Players are expected to GM Contracts from time to time. If you have played as a Contractor in your most recent six Contracts, you are barred from playing in The Illumination again until you GM.
  • Supernatural Powers: All non-mastery, non-concealed Powers must be obviously supernatural when activated or grant a mutation that marks the wielder as supernatural or bizarre if discovered.

Full Setting Description

They named that time The Illumination, and it was by the flash of a camera phone.

 

The year was 2004. Until that point the Earth was as we had always known her. We filled her cruel vastness with legends, superstitions, and rumors. Warlocks, monsters, and gods lurked on the edge of the collective consciousness, always a possibility but never more. We lacked evidence. That evidence came as humanity filled its pockets with technology equipped to capture and transmit.

 

An iPhone found on High School senior Nate Klienman’s mangled corpse held a video of his girlfriend’s bone-snapping transformation into a monstrous wolf creature. A Brazilian widow documented a series of conversations with the misty figure of her late husband. A Chinese fishing boat caught a mermaid in a net and put it on display in the Beijing aquarium.

 

Each week brought a new revelation that we were not alone. Superstitions reversed their slow death overnight. Salem held their first witch trial in a century. The jury rendered a verdict of “guilty on all charges” and sentenced Maxibelle Horux to death. A week after her lethal injection, half the jury died from a tainted batch of flu vaccine. A fearful, populist movement arose to rid humanity of the creatures lurking in its ranks. Suspects are forcibly subjected to bizarre tests of their humanity, and the results are often open to interpretation. A mob’s justice is swift.

 

Yet the paranormal is not merely relegated to a persecuted class. Where some see monsters, some see sentience, and others see opportunity. If a vampire can sustain themselves on cloned blood and work the graveyard shift, why not legalize and tax? Politicians and Aristocrats employ odd-looking individuals as "advisors" or "protection." Entertainment magazines publish revelations every week about which celebrities shed their human skins at home. Charlatans of all stripes, from palmistry mediums to televangelists, have flourished despite the risks. The treatment of the paranormal varies from place to place, person to person.

 

Long have cabals, cults, and secret societies thrived in the shadows. Their roots run deeply through humanity’s oldest systems of power. Machinations are challenged, and sleeping dangers awaken. The world is changing, forcing long-dormant powers into desperate action. And it is in the midst of this great period of change that The Powers That Be have once again turned their attention to the blue marble. For the first time in two hundred years, Harbingers approach worthy individuals with an offer they won't refuse.

The Games have returned, and a new generation of Contractors are being forged.

Insanity: Great

As Great tries to understand Rella herself, his mind fails to wrap around her and what she can offer, nothing makes sense anymore, he slowly started to lose himself in reality, and as he did, a familiar laughing taunting him can be heard from far, far away.
