Well I went through my turn, so I'll take time to explain everything.
When we last left off Nue had entered into the dungeon. And for some magical reason, Nue's powers were nulled out to a heavy extent, even her misshaped wings disappeared, but as she grows stronger, her powers are likely to return....
And so she embarked on her journey to find the legendary BEER OF ZUN (Yes, I think it should be a artifact that's more Touhouish, so instead of an orb I plan to make it a beer bottle if that's fine with out...)
And so we continue where Nue was left off....
___________
As our adventure continued, Nue left the alter of Sakuya, she knew there was no way she could work with a god that promoted slowness since taking it easy would not benefit her in anyway, so she proceeded down to the next floor.
Floor 6
As Nue was exploring the new floor she came across a area where the floor was filled with nothing but traps! This probably meant that there was something special about this area, so Nue spent her time slowly locating traps so she could avoid them.
After some careful maneuvering she managed to get to the other side where she found a stairway leading too...
The Orcish Mines!
In these mines. you are bound to find alot of gold but at the same time you'll be contending with tons of orcs at the same time. Especially in massive numbers. And while nue could probably handle it, I feel it would be safer if she got more potions in her arsenal before she dove into that place (or at least a few more levels)...so we'll skip this place for now....
After Nue left the area she ran into a part of orcs. Both mage and and warrior types along with a few regular types as well. She used her evaporation skills to turn her confusion and poison potions into explosive that caused the orcish party to become confused and sick. As a result, she was able to take out the orcish squad easily....
As a result of this...
Her spellcasting is now level 3! A good start so far...
She then later confronted an Ogre, and as you all know Ogres are known for having layers....like onions.
(does this apply to Suika and Yuugi as well?)
Regardless these brutes are known for thier strength and can smash you apart if your not careful. However, with a confusion potion, these creatures are turned defenseless thus Nue is able to beat them easily.
Nue realized it was probably a good time to relearn some of her abilties so she managed to learn Ice Beast as she had a "fair" chance to use it.
Ice beast is a somewhat useful spell that can make Nue turn into a beast made of ice. And it's jaws can produce a freezing effectt on any enemy it bites. COurse she has to be careful because she can also risk getting hurt is someone burns her. So take caution against those that can use fire.
A while later, Nue confronted a Momizikkuri, they're tougher than your typical yukkreimu and yukkurisa and usually come in packs. They can be also hard hitters with the right weapon, otherwise they are still pretty weak in general. And at our current level Nue can eleminate them easily.
Nue then comes across the Alter of Yuyuko, here, serving under Yuyuko can grant you undead minions to control and aid you. But what good would it do for a shape shifting nue? Not so much.... So we're going to pass (besides the zombie goldfish make it less inviting.)
Nue then begin to fiddle with her scrolls she had and found out she had 12 scrolls of teleportation! (Nice!) She also had a scroll of detect curse, remove curse, weapon enchantment II, and even a scroll of identification! She also managed to identify a ring she had, which was a ring f poison protect, this'll be good to protect her from poisons and as well eat poisonous food.
Course before too long Nue would run into some trouble.
A whole army of Kobolds, a momizikkuri and a koakuma. All ready to fight! She used her potions to fight back, but as it turned out she was only able to take out a few of them as more kobolds kept pouring in....
There is always times where one must retreat in order to find a way to fight back and this was one of these cases.
Nue decided to run back up several stairs to get back the arrows she placed down back a while ago. She managed to find them and deicded it was time to learn a spell that would serve as a destraction...
Stick into Snakes!
With this spell, Nue can turn any wooden object into a snake that'll aid her in battle and possibly poison her target. This'll work during the early part of the game at the very least. Later on, if she can aquire selective amnesia she can forget the spell.
As she returned back down to the 7th floor she found a sword along the way and equiped it, it was a sword of speed! This will allow her to get a few extra hits in. But regardless the hammer proved to still be the stronger tool... She still decided to keep it for now....
Back down at the 7th floor, Nue attack the Kobold party and took them out easily by using the snakes as a destraction. She also took out a mummy preist unique called Merdrake who mainly can call the powers of hell to damage your health and smite you given any chance, still easy though and thanks to having snakes with her.... she doesn't even have to take the blow from the mummy's curse!
She later confronted a toad that nearly killed her but with some potions and some luck she managed to beat is and right then she leveled up to level 9!
And what's this? Nue's evolving!
As a result she now has the ability to see invisible creatures now! This'll save us the trouble of look for a ring to do that.
Just then Nue reached the temple, a place where alot of alters are together, she Nue can select a god to worship, but who? Strangly enough Mima isn't here, and she has no aggresive magic yet so Utsuho is out, so where does she go? There is still hope, but some may find it....shocking....
Flandre, yes Flandre AKA Xom. The god of random chaos. This sounds like a terrible risk but there's a plus side to this...
Due to Nue's ability to mutate constantly as she levels up, she has a good chance of earning Flan's trust easily.
As everyone knows,Flan view everyone as playthings, and because of this, she may give you something, or at the same time, she can make your trip a living hell. But the best way to get Flan to like you is to take risks. Drink unknwon potions, get sick, use unidenfied items, ect. They all give Flan a good laugh, but nothing pleases flan more than....mutations! Yes, mutations. And because Nue's known for she constant changing a form, chances are Flan will shower Nue with better items in the long run. But who knows, you can never tell what Flandre has in mind for you.... so be ready for anything and everything!
As Nue left, Flan gave Nue a welcoming gift, two potions of agility. A nice start coming from the destructive little vampire.
As Nue was finishing up the floor she ran into a yukkuEirin, these yukkuri are known for thier archery skills and will shoot without hesitation! So be careful around them. Best plan is to either use a confusion potion on them or hide in the corner and attack as they come around. Your pick.
Couse the plus side.... You get more arrows from them, more arrows = more snake ammunition always a good thing for Nue.
Afterward Nue proceeds to the 8th floor, here, she only got a chance to examine a bit of what was around her before she stopped for a brake.
Thus now this ends my turn.
As of right now, I know Nue has to deal with the following creature, slime, and several koakuma.
As a word of advice, always have some snakes ready, you may never know how handy they'll become unless you try. They work especially well against slime, mummies and large parties when your trying to destract them.

Now after this, I decided to sit down and mod some more. I got a whole lot of things down today thankfully. Mostly because they were simple alterations, though there are some that were trickier than others. As of this point..... flying skulls have been changed, All frogs have been changed, Yaks have been changed, the list can go on, I even changed a few uniques I know that needed some Touhou variations.. I think you'll be pleased. I think I covered all the lair creatures I needed to cover now thankfully.
Also I gave Nue her first set of wings since she managed to reached level 9 (the first mile stone.)
If for some reason they do not appear in your game, go into the custom section "-" and go down to Dracwings, select "2 / 10" that should be Nue's wings. This sample should show you what you need to set it up.
Also here's the new update to the mod, be sure to update it since it'll have more Touhou themed features to it. ^^ The save should work fine with it.
http://www.mediafire.com/?0ennmkodhwlAs for now my turn is over, who ever's turn is next, the save is at the bottom, and
please sign me up again!Edit: I believe there may have been a mess up in the list order from what I noticed, Anathe please double check. As far as I know, Stuffman signed in for the list (and he was skipped) and Chaore signed in for the list, I am still trying to confirm the Shim and head crabs. They should all be placed up before Zengar and me on the list.
Edit 2: Here's what I think the list should stand as of right now, Shim told me he's not ready yet so...
Waiting list:
Stuffman
headcrabs
Chaore
Zengar
Totaku
So Stuffman, it's your turn go grab the game and crawl file.
