So, you can have all the stuff we had last year, plus some new stuff that got thrown in."

Well hello my little yakbeets! I hope you’re enjoying your summers! I had so much fun here at my husband’s bathhouse with each and every one of you soaking up some good vibes. I can't believe half the year is gone already!

It’s Christmas in July somewhere and you know what that means--!

Well, well~ Looks like you’ve all given and received your gifts without missing a beat! I’m so proud of you! ♥ I look forward to hosting next year’s Secret Santa to see all of you again!

I officially declare this year's Secret Santa complete!

Hmm, I seem to be missing my favorite holiday CDs. I guess I’ll grab the extra copies from the attic.

I've been on and off of Questden since my Freshmen year of college in 2016, when I posted my first Quest 'Art.'

It was pretty self-biographical and incredibly cringe, but hey it was something I made at one point so that's pretty funny!

Somedays I fantasize about just picking up where I left off with some of my really old quests, considering most of them made it aboooout, four updates before being totally abandoned.

How long of a hiatus is the quest on, or are you done with it?

The key word was, 'try'.

The image is done. All I've gotta do now is finish the write-up, and I'll be ready to post it. Basically, it'll be out either today or tomorrow, save data corruption and spontaneous death.

How do you know you've been too slow with the updates?

When you have to pull your quest out of the graveyard to continue it.

That's quite the update, though.

It's gonna take me some time to sift through all this new info, and answer. I appreciate you extending yourself so much.

so when next cna we expect a update?

Let me reiterate:
>gather Ramona and Sally

I apologize for being unclear, I should have presented some kind of justification for telling Ramona about the situation.
Let me present some benefits and risks for it.

Benefits:
-Sally and Ramona will apreciate our honesty and our bond with them will deepen.

-It will prevent the whole thing from blowing up in our faces in a month or so if Sally really is pregnant.

-It will allow both mother and daugther more time to adjust and plan for the future.

Risks:
-Ramona and Sally may get in a fight with each other.

-Upon finding out he has been with both of them, Ramona and Sally might refuse to sleep with Chuck ever again.

-Upon finding out he has been with both of them, Ramona and Sally might flip out, and kick Chuck's ass and/ir throw him out of the house.

Hello folks,

Just offering a formal apology for the quest's slow start. I have been out of the game for a while, and I am neither the writer nor the artist I once was. It may take some time for me to achieve the original quality of the quest again, or it may simply never happen.

I a demanding job with a 24/7 beat and am trying my hardest to be creative/productive outside of that. I am also addressing concerns that the original quest was heavily railroaded, and offering more opportunities for suggester input to steer the direction of the story.

Thank you for your patience and understanding!

To be honest, the art has actually become far more detailed in this new thread.

It's been an eventful few years, and hopefully no one expects that you or anyone else would be unchanged.

But It's good to see the story resume regardless.

do you guys prefer the newer or older backgrounds?

>>137080
They're both good and have their own charm. Use the one that is the most helpful to your own workflow.

>>137080
I like the older ones more.

Yeah, I dig the older style.

>>137080
they work well for different atmospheres.

I feel like the old style works well for older/grungier locations like the subway area, while the newer backgrounds work better for sleeker/cleaner areas like the office.

>>136504
Nice loking!

I have a doubt. How are aurorans without armor? The tail looks dog-like or weasel-like, but the faces looks more rodent. Maybe they are not based in any animal specie? or I didn't get they well?

>>136507
Aurorans are based on various types of martens (martens being mustelids, the same family as weasels)! For example, Arvin is a beech marten, Falken is a sable, Silur is a fisher cat, and Marisere is a pine marten.

I could have done a better job of making it clearer. Unfortunately, demands on my time and energy mean that I often can't devote as much attention to individual update images as I would like. I also only started seriously applying myself to art just over a year ago - I'm hoping that as I gain skill this will show in my updates as well.

Meanwhile, the Tetrapisans are definitely not meant to be based on any animal in particular. This is because they can customise their synthetic body's appearance as desired; no-one's truly sure what an unaltered Tetrapisan would look like. However, individuals may resemble species such as dogs, (furred) dragons, etc.

Thank you for the question; I hope this helps!

>>136509
Yeah thanks!

And don't worry too much about art, looks nice and is understandable what you represent. I simply can't differentiate between kinds of mustelids and I might be used for every canine-looking humanoid to be dog based or fox based.

Feat. Chi+Ignis from SHARDS

Can I get a clarification on how Improved Pack Mentality works? It looks like it's Pack Mentality but it applies the buff to the entire group instead of just the unit with the trait. Does it have a penalty when the unit is alone, like the lesser trait? I'd guess it doesn't give penalties to allies when they're not nearby.

Yeah, I need to reword it.

"This troop and all adjacent allies gain a bonus to Calm and Aim as long as they are adjacent."

No penalties unless they'd have both traits.

That sounds really good! Though I suppose in most missions we're spreading out to use cover.

I don't see any species that have both.

>anything other people want to do during the base phase that isn't in the strictly-defined options?
Interact with, or even just learn about, the other squads. We've got clues constraining the pee bandit's identity but there's no visible list of suspects for them to be narrowing down.

Anyway. You probably noticed DR halted. That's cause I've been dealing with a pretty disruptive health issue that still isn't all the way better.

But it's a lot of the way better, so I'll be restarting the quest probably in early JANUARY... assuming I don't get worse like I did the last time I said I'd try to start back up.

I lost most of 2020 because... 2020, and I lost like 4 months of 2021 due to health

maybe 2022 will go better???

Sorry you haven't been feeling well. Glad you're feeling better and hope this upcoming year is better.
