Meanwhile on Demon Hunter Veeky Forums

I hate cultists so, so much. Why do they think summoning demonic cosmic horrors is a good idea in the slightest?

Last resort but IMO I swear by coloring dye in gallon sized bottles. Get the circle the wrong color and it will (generally) fizzle out.

That being said, fizzling rituals out tends to go better if you stop them at about the halfway point. After that HIDDEN FUN STUFF happens more often than not.

Also "When it doubt, frag out!"

So fellow demon hunters, is it worth getting a portion of your body replaced with cybernetics? I've heard that getting fifty-one percent of your total body mass replaced with cybernetics could prevent demonic possession and corruption.

No, not really. Sure, it might protect you from small fry, but more powerful demons can -easily- subvert the machinery and turn it against you, especially since it lacks a proper soul.

Keep the business talk to the Veeky Forums board please. Veeky Forums is for the discussion of traditional games such as snakes and foxes, not a board to discuss your latest kills. Some of us come and browse these boards to escape from our hellish day jobs you know.

On topic:. Does anyone know of a way to actually win at snakes and foxes?

Just have a goblin helper do it for you, user. The game is -literally- impossible for humans to complete.

Summon a rather grumpy eldritch entity and let him deal with the idiot cultists? Just get the hell out of there before he decides to rip you apart for summoning him out of nowhere.

>Summon a rather grumpy eldritch entity and let him deal with the idiot cultists?
Unfortunately, the cult had already tore open a gateway before I could kill their head. Luckily, it was only the merest -sliver- of Leviathan that has leaked through into our world, but I don't really think any mere eldritch entity is going to cut it here

>any mere eldritch entity won't cut it
Uhm... Does anyone know the summoning ritual for an eldritch being on par with 'the Black King' or someone like that?

This sounds like something that level of eldritch abominations should be used to dealing with.

That or summon a war deity from one of the old pantheons to help kill this thing. (just not Mars. That idiot might try to keep Leviathan as a pet.)

Is that a Justice league porn comic reference?

...No, but now you've peaked my interest.

>This sounds like something that level of eldritch abominations should be used to dealing with.
Leviathan was capable of throwing down with the Divine itself once fully manifested user. Sure, this is just a mere fragment of the whole, but I don't think any of the usual eldritch horrors could be able to pull this off. At least, not without reducing much of the continent to boiling rubble in the process.

great Scott saga. It's terrible porn, but an interesting read.

...

Hmm...Try summoning an archangel or seraphim to help deal with the fragment?

>Hmm...Try summoning an archangel or seraphim to help deal with the fragment?
user, they would most likely consider the entire surrounding area "corrupted beyond any hope of recovery", and would promptly glass everything other oblivion. But at the rate this thing is going, I may have to risk that chance.

...

Anyone know what's up with all these 14-16 year olds recently? It feels like every other week an amateur teenage demon hunter stops a local demonic conspiracy.

>It feels like every other week an amateur teenage demon hunter stops a local demonic conspiracy.
I have no idea. Maybe there's just a lot of low-quality demonic conspiracies popping up these days.

Maybe we should try bugging one of the eldritch abominations or deities lurking in the thread or something. They might know what's going on.

Probably happening because they've got a better idea of what's happening in their local area: Which nerds are seeking vengence, which stacey clique want eternal beauty, etc., allowing them to effectively disrupt the summoners before things go too far. But they tend not to be as thorough on clear up, so be alert for potential repeat incidents...

Perhaps it's just the time of the year when young rookies get out and try to make something of themselves?

DH/tg/, I need your help again, urgently!

So, in case no one remembers, i'm the guy who asked about my daughter on the previous thread.
About how she has a very much real "imaginary" friend, eldritch-ish boyfriend and ability to stop time, remember?
Well, after i'd dealt with that public reading incident (still finding bits of eldritch brain eyes in my coat) I got home to find my daughter putting on some very...masculine clothing.
Garishly colored, too.
Now, that's okay in itself, but it seemed she was taking fashion advice from her ghost buddy, who seems to have a penchant for intimidating clothes with hearts, peace signs and other positive symbols woven as accessories. But that's not the issue.
The issue is that the next morning, i hear this very panicked call for help from my daughter's room.
I run in, handcannonball/chain at hand and fatherly overprotectiveness filling my heart when i see the following:

>Daughter looking puzzlingly at the root end of some dark purple, glowing rose thorn bramble...vine thing wrapped all around herself.
>Daughter's BF looking extremely concerned over the matter (eyes shining a bright pastel yellow), while taking his hands off his ears.
>Through some glasses the mages gave me, the ghost buddy literally running across the walls and ceiling flailing his arms in abject terror and panic, yelling about black roses just below my maximum hearing range.

From what i could tell, this is very serious.
So, i'm asking the following:
-How can i fix this?
-If gods or other otherwordly beings are here, was this your doing?
-Assuming nothing can be done, is it harmful to her?

I have an idea...SUMMON ANOTHER LEVIATHAN, then they'll just kill each other

Hey guys, arch-demon here. Why do you fight against me? I mean it's not like I would do a worse job of ruling than your current kings, queens and emperors

I wouldn't know.
I'm just a devil hunter with eldritch prevention work on the side.
Most demons i've met are fairly decent folk if a bit pushy.
Actually, while you're here, might as well ask you as well. Do you have anything to do with or say about these purple rose vines wrapping around my daughter?

Because that's how I get paid?

Nah, I'm pretty sure it's a vampires work, or some succubus/ incubus is at fault.

Combination of a lot of arch-demons seeming to be way too close for comfort to entities like the Adversary or devils in general, and most of us humans don't like non-humans ruling over us on an almost primal level.

You can blame the Black King for that.

To answer at least one of you questions:
>How can I fix this?
Have you tried some sort of holy fire on the bramble yet?
>Did one of the gods/otherworldly beings do this?
My research into ancient gods and eldritch beings hasn't turned up anything on that level. Then again, I haven't checked the Black King's grimoire yet, so there might be something in there...
>is it harmful to her?
Damn it man, are you blind? Both the ghost entity (sounds like some kind of guardian angel or spirit based on what you've told us) and goddamn eldritch boyfriend are freaking out over these brambles. Obviously they're some kind of malevolent construct. Of course they're harmful!

Hmm. Maybe i should visit that one bloke up by the mountain farm. Maybe he's at fault.

Okay, so i tried some holy fire and it did seem to have some effect.
Most of the vine burned away...but regrew from the root (now embedded in my daughter's wrist) and swirled around her in a different configuration.
Toby's slunk off somewhere, presumably to find more help, and the ghost, when coherent and not screaming in abject terror, is steaming to me abut crossing some vampire or god or something like that.
He keeps flipping to foreign languages and back.
From what i can tell, he's also yelling about a purple helmet?
My Atlantean is a bit rusty...
Does anyone know of a vampire lord/god of harvest who uses black and purple glowing thorny rose vines and wears a purple helmet?

Have you looked at most of the arch-demons in existence?

Most humans would fight against things like that out of sheer fear. Eldritch abominations did it one time and now all humans instinctively want to kill anything that doesn't look human enough.

Luckily for me, I'm not 'most arch-demons'.

Have you tried shooting them?

And? They are aware that there's a difference between arch-demons and eldrich abominations, right? Although maybe I'm overestimating them

>Although maybe I'm overestimating them
Trust me, you're overestimating the competence of humanity by several orders of magnitude. I get mistaken for being an arch-demon by non-cultists/demon hunters all the time.

>You can blame the Black King for that.
Don't go blaming me for Narly's little stunt as "Ahtu aka The Black Pharaoh" on me By black I don't mean Nubian. He was running around as a literal charcoal-black humanoid in Pharaoh get-up way back in the day. That idiot Outer God is why mortals are so adverse to having a non-human in charge. I'm why humans are so terrified of darkness and the unknown. Big difference there.

You have the grimoire I gave you, it should have my notes on him in it.

>Does anyone know of a vampire lord/god of harvest who uses black and purple glowing thorny rose vines and wears a purple helmet?
Dīs Pater was a god of riches, fertile agricultural land and underground mineral wealth. Used to be the god of Rome's underworld before getting usurped by Pluto back in the day as I recall. However, I don't know if ol' Dis uses black and purple thorny rose vines.

Because they are really cute :3

I have some ectoplasmic leaches I could try and splice with some harvest blite essence if you're desperate but I can't do much more without a sample, I know some people get upset about "outbreaks" and like to step in before the ecto eco system has propably stabilised on some worlds and blame me when they make a mess so I want to check what you can safely handle.

Okay...i'm guessing he's a bit of a recluse?
Could you relay a message regarding the matter?
Maybe he could help.

I managed to rip out a piece and draw up an illustration before it wilted.
Before you ask, yes, the weird petals are part of it, they seem to sprout from the thorns as the vine is wilting.
I have no idea what this is, but while i was holding it, it felt like someone was both looking at my mind and telling me off for ripping a bit of vine.
Whatever it is, the only reaction my daughter has to it is annoyed confusion and mild curiosity.
As for materials to be used on my daughter, i've noted her ghost buddy flinches at Filgaian Holy Berries, silver arrows (not silver anything else, oddly), rosewood and Yggdrasill branches.

Ok I think I know what may of happened, you may notice a rain storm (give it two or three hours before telling me nothing happened) exposes her to the water and tell me what happened, it shouldn't harm her.

There isn't a problem in this dimension or another that cannot be solved by applying enough explosives to it, user.

It's mostly because you and yours are usually in service to entities like the Deadly Sins and the Adversary, who are all Cosmic Horrors who seek to subsume reality itself into their being. Most of the time you fucks try to even -summon- them into the material, despite the fact that they would eat -everything-.

So uh, we all have our tomes to fight the creatures from below, right? Where are the volumes on the stuff that's upstairs? I would settle on a "killing angels for dummies" pamphlet right now.

>Where are the volumes on the stuff that's upstairs? I would settle on a "killing angels for dummies" pamphlet right now.
What. Did. You. Do.

maybe its because we don;t have kings queens and emperors anymore? No one wants to go back to before the renaissance sorry

I hate to be a bother deary, but we don't talk about him anymore.

are about half the hunters on this board acutally other things? this is concerning

Nah, this board has just been infiltrated by a host of demonic forces. Perhaps the Adversary has taken note of us?

I always figured that black pharaoh fiasco was a result of you guys having a contest for stupidest form that can still rule mortals

they could also just be bored and feel like shooting the breeze. sloth is a sin after all

As long as we keep our skeleton business to ourselves, we're cool, right?

>As long as we keep our skeleton business to ourselves, we're cool, right?
So long as you don't summon a horde of undead to devour the living, along with stealing children for nefarious rituals, we should be fine. Mostly.

It's always good to keep abreast of the practices of the lesser races, on one plain proper banishment practices were discontinued after a simpler spell was discovered, this spell sent the energies into the astral plain instead of their realm of origin endangering anyone meditating in several near by realms. We still haven't fixed that one compleatly yet.

...

Speaking of giant hordes of undead I'm standing here in heracleion watching the waves pour fourth countless angry looking mummys. Could use some help here there a well enough mummys for there to be more mummys than ocean right now

Who the fuck woke all those mummies? Which insane fuck thought that waking a world-ending tide of long-dead warrior-kings would be a good idea?

It might be because anubis quit but I have no experience fighting mummies and there are millions of then in the tides. So if some other hunters could come and help before they manage to reach dry land that would be great. Otherwise I think me and Egypt are fucked

Fear not, Friend! Justice has descended!

Could justice stop just standing there looking fabulous and help me re kill these things

No one cares if you keep your skeletons in your closet

Why of course my Friend! NOW CHARGE MEN!!!!!

This is a terrible plan but I don't have a better one

I'm almost to the point where I hate amateur demon hunters sullying our reputation more than I hate the demons themselves.

Interdimensional tech support here. Have you tried leaving and re-entering your reality shard? What about restarting from the big bang?

Try those and let us know if that resolves the issue, if the problem persists I'll see if I can escalate to the Dimensional Design Team.

Who am I kidding. I still hate the demons more.
To the last, I grapple with thee; From Hell's heart, I stab at thee; For hate's sake, I spit my last breath at thee; By my will I deny thee; By my heart I spurn thee; By my hand I destroy thee; Fiend of darkness, to the void I cast your blackened soul.

>frag out

Woah there mister moneybags, some of us have rent to pay. A good pipe bomb does just as well.

It's well over half. Just don't bleed near your screen and you should be fine.

>Interdimensional tech support here. Have you tried leaving and re-entering your reality shard? What about restarting from the big bang?
That wouldn't kill it. It would likely just jump over to another timeline, and glut itself on the life-force there before trying to open the veil for the bulk of its existence to push through.
>Pic related is its current manifestation by the way.

Step one: Don't fuck with upstairs
Step two: Nigga what did I just tell you
Step three: Fucks sake
Step four: Summon something and hope they wipe eachother out, but you're going to hell either way.

You mean you haven't cut a deal for cheap mil-surp through the Chaplains' Corp and its links to the church's exorcism team?
Where did you think we were getting the Willy Pete from?

I... can't say I've ever tried using incendiary munitions on the Great Foe. I thought they wouldn't be very effective due to, you know, my target's hellish origins? I got nothing against incinerating some cultists though

>Where are the volumes on the stuff that's upstairs? I would settle on a "killing angels for dummies" pamphlet right now.
You know, I've seen humans do some really, and I mean really, stupid stuff since I've been on this world. Reading from the Necronomicon, trying to summon Leviathan or similar world-ending entities...

But pissing off the angelic host, and as a demon hunter no less?

We've just reached a whole new level of 'what-did-you-do' stupid.

>they could also just be bored and feel like shooting the breeze. sloth is a sin after all
More or less.

Guarantee you that's why Astaroth over there showed up. The guy's lazy as hell As an aside, the guy is one of Hell's 'designated manwhores'. Gets to tap a lot of demon ass or something. Female demon hunters be wary of this guy...

It's like using a flamethrower, just an update of the whole " torch and oil" routine from the old days, but remember to get them blessed for maximum effect.
Fire was one of the first weapons humanity had for keeping the darkness and its inhabitants at bay, and is still useful even now.
Also, not all infernal regions are high heat...

Listen, you know policy is that borders between worlds can only be thinned for work related issues. I'll put in a ticket to have this un-thing retroactively removed from existence AND non-existence but it might take three to five eons to fully process.

I'll be closing and resolving the ticket now, have a nice day.

>But pissing off the angelic host, and as a demon hunter no less?
>We've just reached a whole new level of 'what-did-you-do' stupid.
Retard probably got himself and his entire area turned into pillars of salt or some shit. Honestly, I fucking hate rookies. They ruin our reputation, and our connections with benevolent higher-beings because they are Incapable of tact, or thinking of the consequences of their actions.

Groups like that have been dead out here for years. I have to make my own shells out here.

...

Might have annoyed a winged bastard or two.

In my defense, Michael started it. His fault he's dead.

>Might have annoyed a winged bastard or two.

>In my defense, Michael started it. His fault he's dead.
You're trying to tell me that you, -killed- Michael the Archangel? Alright in that case, let me make this simple for you to understand: DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA AS TO WHAT YOU'VE DONE!!!!!???? YOU FOOL!!! YOU'VE DOOMED US ALLLL!!!!!!!

>In my defense, Michael started it. His fault he's dead.
>You killed Michael
>ARCHANGEL MICHAEL

I was never a fan of the guy He was always a dick, but did you have to KILL HIM?

Fragmentation bomb, same diff.

Not that guy but surprised so many swallowed the blue pill on the feathery gits.

>Not that guy but surprised so many swallowed the blue pill on the feathery gits.
Those "feathery gits" are one of the primary reasons why Creation is still around, and hasn't been devoured by the Adversary. And some chucklefuck just went ahead and killed one of the greatest among them. I am now going to bolt before-Oh look, the sky is already tearing open.

Oh pish posh, Creation's been destroyed several times over and its only gotten shittier with each new iteration. Stiff upper, we'll get to the next one soon enough.

>Humans still not realizing that they are but a fleeting memory within the grand dreamscape.
Seriously, stop trying to rock the boat, before Eternity ends.

>Eternity
Oh bolly, that's ended twice already! Stiff upper! Everything will be alright in the end.

Just because we've Woken into two upper realities doesn't mean Eternity ended, it just means we didn't have the whole picture.

Sorry, too busy to argue right now. I'm currently moving myself, my kid, and my stuff to another reality in order to avoid the shit that's about to go down. With any luck, only Earth will be destroyed and reality will be restored before too long. Enjoy dealing with the things emerging from the rift in the world in the meantime though.

>Creation's getting destroyed because some dumbass managed to kill Michael the Archangel
>Creation has been destroyed at least 664 times now

Will humans you ever learn?

>Will humans you ever learn?
It just keeps happening. Honestly, this is why every Hunter -needs- at the very least, one Demonologist to keep them on the straight and narrow.
