Now you are in the 41st Millennium, awaking in the grimdark future you never imagined will come to be. After your initial confusion, above the rhythmic white-noise of grandiose yet unsettling baroque machines a half-man, half-machine awakes you, explaining that, using the wonderful marvels of the most sacred of tech-rituals, straight from their far-past your far-future fabled Dark Age of Technology, you have been recalled from the abyss of time and your soul had been bound to most Priestly and most Holiest Machine, sacred to the Omnissiah. The machine is like a Holy Warp Drive ("what the hell is a Warp Drive?", you think), but Holiest, since it can penetrate the veil between universes. Why you? The abominable mechanic man can't say, decades, maybe centuries of study will be needed and the Chrono Machine had been locked away, given that it revealed to be contaminated by the taint of Abominable Intelligence. And decades, maybe centuries will be needed to understand the inner-workings of the Holy Warp Drive now tied to your soul. You are now the only one who can sit at the helm of the Void Ship that can travel across the vastness of interstellar void, the empty eternity of time and the infinite complexity of parallel dimensions: a Rogue Trader, but with unique skills and privileges.MoreLess

Inspired by Biblaridion's Alien Biospheres and @Tam Lin's Tam Lin's Monsterworld Original - Art Quest.
You will start out with access to the first three species that have come to exist within the Polygonus Superocean. You will choose how these species evolve in response to the pressures that they face from their own species, other species, or even the environment itself. You will receive a warning when the pressure on a species becomes enough to threaten them with extinction and, if you are unable to deal with that pressure before a set period of turns runs out, that species will face extinction.MoreLess

This art quest will be divided into three arcs (which will each have their own thread).
The starting point will be a biological colony ship that's crash-landed.. but before it can launch it needs to have an audit of all its functions, and all the lifeforms that will colonize a new world need to be loaded on.
Follow a low level clerk, Dhiihlitte, as they navigate work and social obligations, and fill out submissions to the ship's ecospheres.
How (not) to audit A Generational Bioship was my entry into Summerfest 2024's Storytelling Showdown.

An Evolution art quest based on A Monstrous Biosphere. With the twist that instead of adapting to life on a world these species will be growing from ancient ruins and adapting to a gas giant.

Amidst fluid narratives and folk who trade memories as readily as they trade their bodies vae'll find how vae too may seek fulfillment in vaer new daily life.
Questant is an Art Quest that intends to replicate a bit of various games I've enjoyed playing in my life, and an easy comparison is that of an open-world simulator like Dwarf Fortress's own Adventurer Mode. I like to think of this as an open-world backpacking simulator in a big sci-fantasy multiversal kitchen sinkhole.
In this forum adventure you the reader can influence the actions and choices that Klevas and vaer party members make. These range from who joins Klevas, where they voidtraipse next, what they trade when passing through a demiplane, and how they find comfort in each other.
Updates may be delayed due to asset creation, or irl reasons. The goal here is 'updates weekly' but don't be surprised if there's an off week or two.MoreLess
