Story #3: Rose the Demonic Void Cat

In another D&D game me (the DM) and my friend R (playing as Kentucky Fried Chicken) explored my gigantic open world map. In the shop, of course, he purchased a jetpack (because those exist in Dungeons and Dragons) and rocketed into space (somehow) along with his demon cat Rose. Let me explain that part.

Earlier in the campaign, Kentucky Fried Chicken had been captured by cultists and brought prisoner to their lair. He escaped, obviously, and went to work swiftly and stealthily decapitating all of the cultists. That eventually brought him to the lair of their master, the Archmage of the region. The Archmage was concocting a binding spell that he needed the life force of a living being to create, so he killed Kentucky Fried Chicken’s pet cat, Poe. R (in real life) whined so much I was forced to say that another cat then walked out of the shadows and became his pet. It was a coincidence, totally not me trying to stop him from complaining more. He defeated the Archmage and left, unsurprisingly.

Later on, Rose was killed by an Abyss creature, but being so close to Abyssal energy, the cat was revived. It was not the same, however. It became a human-level intelligent talking Abyss cat who had void tendrils that sprouted from its back. The void tendrils could wrap up anything and devour it instantaneously. Totally not a flerken.

Back to the actual story. He traveled to a planet called Mechanus (not stolen from Kirby at all). It was definitely a planet of my own creation, not at all inspired by Horizon: Zero Dawn. Machines had taken over the planet and this guy called The Collector (not stolen from Marvel or Hollow Knight either) collected every one of them and stored them in tubes that put them to sleep (not stolen from Bionicle). Rose saw the machines and her void tendrils went insane, immediately devouring every one of them in sight. Kentucky Fried Chicken and Rose cautiously approached the fortress of The Collector. As soon as they were inside, Rose’s void tendrils stretched out and devoured every machine, glass shard, and stasis liquid tube in the room. And then she snacked on the ceiling. When they finally reached The Collector himself, he was eaten rather quickly. At the back of the room, they noticed two vats. Rose consumed the vats and liquid, and humans poured out. They introduced themselves as Aloy and Rost (not stolen from Horizon: Zero Dawn). Later on, they both got killed in one hit by a cultist, but that’s not important. Rose almost ate a bench (a saving mechanism) at the start of the dungeon before Kentucky Fried Chicken told her “no!” and sat on it. Immediately after, she ate it. They all got off the planet and never returned. The end.
