    Private Valley of the Sun Running Frozen

    Well, it wasn't on an actual mountain, but even just rock climbing kinda sucks ass. And the climbing wall at the police academy had been her arch nemesis. She'd hated it with a passion, even if she'd eventually overcome it. Luckily, climbing in this fantasy winter gear wasn't TOO different from...

    Private Valley of the Sun Running Frozen

    Mountain climbing was not a preferred pastime of Cleo's and if this was anything to judge by, it certainly wouldn't be becoming one any time soon. It would have been nice to just create an arcane platform and carry them both up the mountain, but the energy cost on that would have been...

    Complete Private Challenge ✪ Finweald Welcoming Sunshine

    100 -10HP from participating. Staying alongside @Ueno Mizuki she turned with a soft smile and shrugged at the woman's question. She wasn't sure herself, really. Who can say, really? Player culture is really starting to spread in this world. Almost like a virus, really... Certainly, too many...

    Complete Private Challenge ✪ Finweald Welcoming Sunshine

    100 None It was to be expected for Mizuki to get distracted, when it came to Caenis things. The happenings of those folk just enraptured the woman, for reasons that Cleo had never quite understood but had just accepted. Mizuki's desire to get in with them was one that she knew her partner...

    18+ Private Isulus Rooted in the Past

    A creature capable of intelligent thought was dangerous. A lot of players tended to assume that the NPCs in this game acted in pre-scripted ways and such, as had been taught to them by a lifetime of playing games wherein that would've been the case. It meant that a lot of players would fumble or...

    18+ Private Isulus Rooted in the Past

    She really didn't like thinking about it. Her usual psyche evaluations weren't flagging any kind of changes so far, so hopefully personality changes, like willpower, just weren't something that the game was capable of, otherwise she'd have to drop it entirely. It was one thing for the game to...

    Private Lies Don't Travel Far

    Sorrow? Was the NPC feeling down or something? Had it had a friend that had been caught in the chaos or something? Cleo wasn't entirely sure what to make of it, though it had the warning signs of trauma and PTSD if she'd ever seen them before. Reminded her sometimes of witnesses she'd meet and...

    18+ Private Isulus Rooted in the Past

    Of course it had been a choice made based off of the appearance of it. Most people who played this game seemed to have selected things based off of preference, rather than out of any idea of optimization or utility. Cleo, for her part, wasn't sure she felt that looking good was really worth...

    18+ Private Isulus Rooted in the Past

    That's fair enough, I suppose. Plus there were probably advantages to picking a race that isn't human. I haven't found any for staying human so far, truth be told. That being said, it wasn't like many racial traits, from what she could understand, actually did offer the users any real tangible...

    18+ Private Isulus Rooted in the Past

    Searching every nook and cranny sounded like a pain, probably because it would be, but Cleo could at least handle it, considering it was similar to the way she'd had to investigate as a detective in the past. Sometimes having to examine the smallest possible details got annoying. Things like...

    Challenge Pormont The Great Amazing Corn Maze Race

    100 Following along behind Mizuki, Cleo held their light tightly and forward, to illuminate Mizuki's way as best as she possibly could, this time the two of them taking their time to avoid any close brushes with the maze walls if they could. Given Mizuki's question though, Cleo chuckled and...

    18+ Private Isulus Rooted in the Past

    Cleo wasn't quite willing to believe that the developers of a game that had killed people cared all that much about game design. In her opinion, the idea that they would think about things like fun or engagement was quite ludicrous, considering what they'd proven willing to do. Though, it was...

    18+ Private Isulus Rooted in the Past

    You have a good point. There's no reason to make a place so hard to enter or investigate unless there's actually something worth investigating there. Well, unless you're a sadist and just enjoy toying with people for your own amusement. Cleo blinked, before chuckling. So judging by what the...

    18+ Private Isulus Rooted in the Past

    Well, finding Vina wasn't an exact science, truth be told. Finding people in game was a lot harder, when they lacked things like bank accounts, addresses and other such trails that she could follow. For Vina, it was actually a little harder than usual, given how the druid was, well, a druid. She...

    18+ Private Isulus Rooted in the Past

    Well, she wasn't about to tell Vina she'd had to slaughter a few Landers in order to deal with that situation. The druid cared too much about the NPCs of this world for her to let that kind of thing slip. Instead, Cleo just nodded and gave Vina a smile. There were some minor injuries, but...

    18+ Private Isulus Rooted in the Past

    Soul? That was one word for it, Cleo supposed. If one was the type to think that the old ways had some kind of inherent values that the modern conveniences lacked, then calling it soul was certainly one way to think about it. Cleo wasn't sure how much she agreed. A letter was very delayed whilst...

    18+ Private Isulus Rooted in the Past

    Cleo could only chuckle and shake her head as Vina seemingly insisted on greeting her with a hug, very briefly wrapping her arms around the druidess in return until they separated and Vina explained that she was fine and that she'd only sent a letter to catch her attention better. The reasoning...

    Private Lies Don't Travel Far

    The maid directed her attention to another Lander woman, who didn't flinch even though her arm was covered in burns. It was quite the thing to see, though she had seen worse in her time. They probably stung like hell, so that made Cleo guess that the woman was flooded with adrenaline and such at...

    18+ Private Isulus Rooted in the Past

    Receiving an actual letter was something quite silly, Cleo had thought, though it had hammered home how recognizable she was, that something could identify her and approach her with mail. She was probably one of the most red things in this game, though, so there really was nothing else to it but...

    Private Lies Don't Travel Far

    Her barrage had quickly drawn the fight out of the remaining attackers, as the rain of crimson spears had fallen to the ground, ending many lives and breaking the morale of the ones that managed to avoid her attack. A good number had managed to avoid being killed, but even they had lost the will...
