Undermore. A cross between Undertale and a creation of a friend and I's. Do not expect to see the characters from Undertale, but instead characters in their stead. Now, of course, you can walk not the middle road and spare everything, or you can make sure you have a really, really, bad time.

The choice, is yours.
And no, I'll tell you no more, otherwise I'd spoil it for you. And that's not something I'd do. Let's hop to it, then.

Oh, Language Warning. Some of these characters can be...Well. Foul mouthed.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



It's a beautiful day outside, birds are singing, flowers are blooming. On days like these, kids like you should be playing outside.

"Hey!" You shout out, calling to your friend as he races off away from you, "Wait up!"

He simply looks back and grins at you.

"What, can't keep up slow poke? I thought you were faaaaaast, but I guess not!"

And then he laughs as hard as he can. You find yourself filled with determination to get by him and so you run, you run as fast as you can, leaping over fallen trees in this forest, on this beautiful day. You can hear your friend shouting out behind you as he struggles to keep up, but he's failing. You're winning this little game.

You go to leap over another log, and your feet do not touch the ground. There's nothing. Just air. You feel yourself falling, a scream exits through your mouth, exhaling from your lungs before you crumple down limp upon a bed of flowers, consciousness fading fast.


Name the fallen child.

The options of fight, act, and spare shall come later. For now, you only need to give yourself a name.
 
[XD] Lord Alivurnax, Dread Terror of all Creation, Starbane, Alltaker, The Void Beyond Entropy's Grasp

Okay now that that's out of the way:

[X] Johann
 
[XD] The Immortal God-Emperor of Mankind,The Most Powerful Psyker in the Universe,He Who Sits Upon the Golden Throne,The Highest of the Lords of Terra.

And with that little silliness purged from my system,my real vote.

[X] Jackson.
 
Okay but no I would for reals 100% read 'God Emperor goes through the underground: The Quest'

I mean, let's be real, it'd turn into 'purge all xenos' very quickly? Unless the power of love and friendship was enough to move even Emps' old heart?

On a scale from 'haha it's never happening' to 'I may consider it if you bribe me with significant quantities of candy' how likely is it that we can actually make that happen? Because I would switch my vote to the God Emperor in a heartbeat.
 
Well, saying as resets are a thing cause Undertale, very possible. I dunno who he is, though.

Cause I've never played that game.

Friendly reminder that the name does not determine actions, you do.
 
No votes by the time I wake up and the name shall be the God-Emperor. Cause you know, gotta keep the ball rolling.
 
My God-Emperor of Mankind vote was a silly joke... But,it was either Jackson,or Wolf. I chose Jackson.
 
Then we still don't have a name for the character as none of the votes are the same name. So far we have...

Johann

Jackson

Aeon

Chara

Each with one vote. If I must, I shall combine it all into one grand name.
 
Or roll a d4? Or just take the first vote that came in as the winning vote,in the event of a tie?
 
Your name shall be Johann. . . A person of seventeen years.

The Caves



You find yourself drifting awake, a wet cloth on your head. There is a man sitting in front of you, bandaging your wounds, and making sure that you weren't off as bad as you could have been.

"Oh, you're awake?" He pondered, his grey eyes casting a glimpse over you, "I was hoping I wasn't too late, Surface Dweller."

He finished bandaging your right leg. It tingled slightly. He helped you to your feet, and slowly let go of you to make sure you could stand on your own. You could. You felt thankful.

The stranger stood there for a moment, his red hair short, cast back, though some bangs were hanging over his forehead. He was dressed in a red vest, with a white shirt underneath, the sleeves rolled up. He smiled politely.

"Oh, do forgive me, I'd rather not keep referring to you as 'Surface Dweller', that's what we here underground refer to anyone who lives on the surface. May I ask your name?"

"Johann," You reply, "But, just call me Jojo."

"Alrighty then, Jojo it is. Well, Jojo, if you would follow me, I know my way around down here," He stated calmly, walking towards a hole in the cavern, beckoning you to follow him.

You step forward, limping slightly, and looking up towards the surface. That was quite the fall, maybe a good hundred feet. You wonder how you managed to survive that. Your friend had to be worried sick about you. You don't even know how long you had been down there before you woke.

"Now, Johann. I must warn you. We down here are very weary of surface dwellers. You do know the history, do you not? No, then allow me to educate you. Many years ago, there was a falling out between those who had a unique ability, and those who do not. Not so much of a war, more of an agreement for the safety of mankind, and all those known to have one such ability, or even the slightest, were locked underground," He stated, staring ahead of him, not looking back at you, his words sounded...Cold. As if he blamed you, and then he continued, "We were sealed down here. A barrier was created, almost unbreachable. Only a surface dweller may pass through, unharmed. That is your way back home, my friend."

The two of you exited the passage you had been in, entering an opening full of mossy rocks, and a pond. Across the way, was the entrance what looked like some ruins, all broken down and in shambles.

"Forgive me," He stated, "You must be thirsty."

He stopped, and drew forth a flask, as well as two cups. His back turned to you, he poured the drinks, as well as what you thought to be some kind of flavoring. He turned around to you, and offered you both cups. The smile on his face innocent enough, you trusted him.


Which cup do you pick?

[] The one in the Stranger's right hand.
[] The one in the Stranger's left hand.
[] Neither.

Some other options. Note, only one of you needs to save for a save to be activated. More options shall be unlocked as you progress through the tutorial stages.

[] Save
[] Reset
[] Load Past Save
 
Eh, I'll play along.

[X] Save
[X] Left hand
[X] Get ready to reload as soon as it turns out it's poisoned or something, probably
[X] Ask if they have wifi down here
 
Huh. Interesting.
Woods already? Can't be...
[X] Save.
[X] Left hand.
 
Current votes:

Two people are saving.

One reload, just in case.

Three for the left cup, one for the right.

And you wanna know if there's wifi. Post will be inbound. ETA: Later today.
 
Betrayal

You look him in the eyes. They seem genuine, and he seems to actually care for your well being. You take the cup from his left hand. Before taking a drink, you speak up.

"So, there's wifi down here, right?" You ask.

He chuckles slightly, "Yes, there is. Now, drink up."

And with that, the both of you take a drink.

Pain. Sudden, unnerving, pure pain. And laughter.

"Y o u r e a l l y t h o u g h t y o u c o u l d t r u s t m e?" He states, his voice sounding purely maniacal, "D o w n h e r e, i t i s k i l l o r b e k i l l e d."

And with that, he laughs loudly, maniacally.

You find yourself laying on your back, coughing, wheezing. The dose must not have been lethal, just enough to make sure you couldn't fight back. But why?

"You see, I figured it's not fair to just outright kill you with at least giving you some small chance. The correct answer was, neither cups. I poisoned them both," He pulls from his pocket a strange looking needle, "You see kid, you yourself have one of those abilities too. You just haven't unlocked it yet. I am going to take it from you. And you made it all too easy."

He leans down next to your coughing and wheezing frame, rolling up your left sleeve.

"And because of you, I'll have myself one more ability. And I'll be able to get out of this God forsaken underground. I will show all the surface dwellers what they truly have to fear," The man's voice truly insane.

Just before he sticks the needle into your arm, something glass strikes the side of his head and shatters, causing him to collapse. Another glass object is thrown his way, before he gets up and starts to run, with a third object thrown at him.

Meanwhile, you're fading fast. The lethality must be kicking in. You hear a woman's voice.

"Here, drink this," She says, as she pours something down your throat.

You start to feel better instantly. The coughing stops, and your vision returns to normal.

"Shh, you're alright now," The woman says.

She's young, maybe a little older than you. Black hair to her neck, skin fair as the moon. Soft blue eyes.

"I'm Jordan," She says, looking into your eyes, "I watch over these parts for any surface dweller who may have fallen. If you haven't guessed, I've run into that fellow before. You're not the first I've had to save from him."

She smiles at you, sitting down next to you, obviously waiting for you to get up when you feel you should.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to hurt you. I understand if you feel that way, and...Well. You wouldn't be the first surface dweller that he almost killed who thought I was out to take your essence," Jordan informed you.

"I..I feel better now," You say, looking at her, "Let's just..Get out of here."

"Alright," Jordan says, taking your hand and helping you up.

"My home is over there," Jordan points to the ruins, "Don't worry, it looks much better inside."

She starts to walk ahead of you, and you notice her outfit. A simple blue sundress, with roses on it. She seems innocent enough. And pretty. You follow her into the ruins.

Inside is...Beautiful. The golden walls with drapes and paintings on them. It's a shame it looks so different on the outside. Even the ground has carpeting. Carpets! On a cave floor! You're amazed, or, well. Shocked at that. It even feels air conditioned down here. All kinds of luxuries, huh?

"Well, for some security measures, I've added several passcodes and such in here. You know, so that bastard of a man doesn't try to kill me in my sleep," Jordan says, pointing at a door lock with a code reader on it, "There are other kinds of things as well."

She enters in the code, and beckons you inside. You enter. It's even more beautiful. You admit you haven't been paying much attention to your surroundings until now. You should do better.

The room you've entered is like the front room of a luxurious house. White walls, with some paintings on them, some of them have Jordan, with people you don't yet recognize. There's a bookshelf. A large TV in the other room. You wonder if this girl lives on her own and how she could afford all this stuff, or if she stole it. You chuckle at that thought. She gives you a puzzled look.

You enter into the living room, sitting down upon the couch and looking at your surroundings. There's a lamp next to you, and a coffee table in front of you. The wooden floor has a rug in front of the fireplace, with a flat screen TV above that. The remains of a fire sits there, glowing yet. You let out a deep breath.

"Oh, I didn't ask you your name," She says, smiling cutely.

"Jojo," You state.

"Alright Jojo, make yourself at home for now. I'm going to prepare us a meal. Oh, your outfit..It's all torn up and covered in blood. As are you. If you're feeling better, there's a bath up the stairs. There are also some clothes for you, if you need them," Jordan smiles, "I'd suggest sitting in the tub a while, it may help with the bruises and cuts. Don't worry, I won't come up there."

"Oh! I am such an idiot, any food you'd prefer? I can make steak, tacos, pizza, ribs, salad, hot dogs, spaghetti, eggs, bacon...You know, whatever, it's up to you," She smiles at you.

Unlike the Stranger, you can tell Jordan actually means all of this. Just something about her, you can tell. You can trust her.

Flowey stand-in confirmed. Toriel stand-in confirmed. Milady Haystrum?

Now,then... Food and cleaning ourselves up? Sounds good. Also,glass projectiles earlier? She a vitreofex? Whatever. Right now,we need a good old fashioned sanity check. That means comfort food,and a good soak.

[X] Spaghetti.
[X] Bath & Change.
[X] Save.

Spaghetti. It's amazingly delicious,and heavy,so it sticks with you,and leaves you feeling nice and full for a while; Comfort food. Bath & change. On top of making ourselves look presentable,taking the time to soak will afford us some excellent time to simply unwind and think. And,of course,save. Save early. Save often.
 
I should elaborate now that some votes only need one person to vote them for them to happen. I've stated earlier that saving is one such vote. In this case, flirting is one as well.

As we're still in the tutorial stages(Until we exit the ruins), expect me to pop in and talk about things. Cause, you know, I can do that.

Also note that I will accept votes that are not an option listed, if they make sense. Such as drinking both cups earlier, and asking if there was wifi.

As for two options, RELOAD and RESET, that takes a majority vote. The uses of those buttons, other than RELOAD being used in case you die, are to possibly change the path your are on.

Speaking of, I'm going to put into the right hand corner at the next post what path we're currently on. Which is the Neutral route.

Oh, and if you have questions about what's going on, feel free to ask anytime, even after the tutorial, as I have no problem clearing things up.
 
I think it would be best to say this early on,Lightning; Strategic use of invisitext will likely enrich the Quest greatly. The colour code is color=transparent. In square brackets,of course,with the /color tag at the end of what you want invisible.
