Update 1.4.2.3 +Finally figured out how to add a Sidebar +Reworked the Main Menu +Made it possible to not draw cards from the deck (oops) +Minor bugfixes +Grammar is made more betterer -Removed the Enchanted Item/Spell Scroll colors for now.

Known Bugs: -If you press the back button, the results of any RNG event you go back to will change (ie Resting, Exercising, Combat, etc). -Buttons move around a lot. I tried moving them to the top to make them sit put once, but that broke the game. -Pounds in the statistics can go negative. That's not a glitch, that's a feature.

All this fat has added up to the point that you are Barely Mobile, and find yourself constantly having to take breaks whenever you do anything that could possibly be considered exertion. You can barely see your ocean of belly (Let alone anything on the ground in front of you) past your large breasts. Your wide rear is constantly prone to getting stuck in normal doorways, and your thighs always rub together, no matter how far you try to spread them. Your insatiable appetite has gotten to the point that you are constantly hungry any time you aren't stuffing your many-chinned face, which you find yourself doing whenever you aren't busy.

You have gotten incredibly big as of late, to the point that you are easily as wide as you are tall. Your massive gut hangs halfway down the tree trucks that are your legs, and would cover most of your lap whenever you are sitting. Not that you are able to sit with your legs closed, of course. There is no way your thighs would get that close, even if you squished them together as much as you could. You almost always feel at least a little hungry, and are constantly munching on the many meals that the villagers bring you.

You are quite Corpulent now. Your mass has gotten to the point that your fastest moving pace is about equivalent to a normal-sized person's brisk walking pace. Even then, you can only pull off such a pace for maybe several seconds. In fact, you usually need to catch your breath any time you try to get up from a sitting position, let alone whenever you walk for more than 30 feet. Your gut covers the top half of your thighs, and your breasts sag down onto it now. Your legs are constantly rubbing against each other , and your rear is constantly rubbing up against things whenever you aren't careful. You are completely unable to say no to food, and the villagers seem more than eager to offer it to you.

You are Morbidly Obese, there's no doubt about that. Your body jiggles every time you make any sort of movement, and you find yourself having to take breaks after walking for too long. Your giant gut drapes about a quarter of the way down your thighs. You find that you've been bumping things more often thanks to your wide rear. Your aforementioned rear and your fat legs have developed cellulite, and you have grown a triple chin. You find that, on any given day, you are starting to spend more time eating than not eating, and there is almost always someone near by that wants to offer you food.

Your weight has gotten to the point that you are now rather Obese. Most of your body jiggles while you are walking. Especially your gut, which has started to form rolls. Your large breasts rest on top of your gut, since they have begun to give up on supporting their own weight. You have double chin, but you're pretty sure you are growing a triple chin Any sign of muscles is now completely hidden by a thick helping of fat. Your stomach usually growls any time you've gone more than a 10 minutes without eating something, but that rarely ever happens nowadays.

Let's face it, you are definitely Fat. Your big gut, butt and chest jiggle whenever you move, and your wide rear and legs cause you to have to waddle wherever you go. It is hard to tell you have the biceps of an adventurer under their layer of fat without flexing your arms, and your double chin has become more pronounced. It probably doesn't help that you are finding it rather difficult to decline all of the food you are being offered these days.

You have gotten pretty Plump as of late. Your thighs constantly squish together, causing you to waddle a little when you walk, and your big gut has started to sag under its own weight. Your double chin has also become a bit more pronounced as of late. Whenever you are resting, you tend to find yourself with one or two of the snacks that the villagers offer you in hand.

You have become rather chubby, thanks to all the food you've been eating. Your gut sticks out noticeably, to the point that cannot suck it in anymore, and you can feel the beginnings of a double chin if you look down.

Your body seems to be softer than before. You aren't quite as toned as you used to be, and your abs have been replaced with the beginnings of a belly, but you can still see some muscles on your arms and legs through their fat.

You are pretty much about the same size as you were when you started. Your limbs and toned, and you still have your abs. Your chest is moderately sized.

You are currently Underweight. You should probably bulk up a little, huh?

You're practically all skin and bones! Go eat something before you starve to death!

Oh dear, it would seem you've let yourself starve to death! You should really avoid doing that in the future! Now, I'm not going to describe how you fell to the floor, nothing more than a pile of skin and bones, to weak to even stand and whatnot because, well, let's face it: That is very much not why any of us are here.

After drinking a Weight Loss Potion, you feel weak. Very weak... You realise, as you are collapsing, that those potions were too strong for you, traveler. Your weight has gotten to the point that you don't have enough fat to feed your body! As you on the ground, unable to move due to starvation, you see something approaching you, though you can't tell what it is through the blur that was taking over your vision... The last sensation you feel before blacking out is being dragged away. [[Continue->Rescued?]]

You wake up on a rather comfortable, and rather large, bed. You still feel quite weak, but not as bad as you had when you passed out. You start to get up and look around, wondering where you are. The room you are in looks quite ancient, though the gilded wooden furniture looks relatively new- *"I see you are awake already, dear~"* You quickly turn around in surprise to see a tall woman standing over you next to the bed. *"Please do be careful, dearie. I was able to keep you from dying, but your poor body is still weak from malnutrition. You should really take better care of yourself, dear~"* You look at the lady in confusion. She's somewhat soft looking, not quite chubby but not slim, pale dark-haired lady, wearing dark colors and a motherly smile. [["Who... Are you?"]]

*"Oh, me? Well dear, I have gone by a few names over the years. Lately, though, the people of that lovely little village down the hill have come to call me the Lipomancer."* You feel a sense of dread come over you. This is the lady that has been terrorizing the village! You find yourself trying to reach for your weapon, to find that you don't have it on you anymore! *"Please calm down, you might hurt yourself, dear."* The Lipomancer insists. *"Really, if I wanted to kill you, do you think you would be here right now?~"* ...That was a good point. You settle down, but are still rather suspicious. *"You see, dear, when I saw you starving yourself to death down there with those awful potions, I couldn't help but intervene. I truly cannot stand when I see a misfortunately minded girl like you chooses to starve herself to death."* The Lipomancer helps you up from your bed. *"Now that that's all sorted out, please come with me~"* [[Continue->feast]]

The Lipomancer guides you out of the bedroom through the ancient halls of her tower. Eventually she brought you to a room. Inside, there was a massive table covered in as many different types as food as you could possibly imagine! *"Please, help yourself. You could really use some meat on those bones of yours, dearie~"* The Lipomancer says as she pulls out a seat at the table and sits you down. Will you eat? [[Yes->feastyes]] [[No->feastno]]

You eat some of the food that has set out on the table before you. It is quite delicious! In fact, this is probably the best food you've ever eaten! [[Eat more!->feastmore]] [[I've probably had enough...]]

The Lipomancer sighs when you refuse her feast, looking sad and disappointed. *"Oh, dearie... I wasn't giving you a choice in if you ate or not."* Suddenly, a rope magically forms around you, tying you down into the seat! *"I can't just let you leave this room without having had your dinner, dear. And since you refuse to touch it... You aren't going to leave until this table has been totally cleaned off~"* You suddenly feel your mouth magically forced open, and some of the food on the table begins to float towards it. The food forces its way into your mouth, forcing you to chew and swallow. Then, the process repeats... And repeats... And repeats... [[Continue->intervention]]

Eventually, thanks to some magical assistance, the table is completely cleaned of food, and you are much, much larger than you used to be. In fact, the chair and rope that had held you in place were long gone, your own body taking over their job now that they sat broken around you. *"There... That wasn't so difficult, was it~?"* The Lipomancer says, rubbing your stuffed, oceanic gut. *"Well, it does seem like you will be here for a while now... So I suppose I will have to make some accomodations for you to sit around for a while, won't I?"* Before you're able to say anything, the Lipomancer snaps her fingers and you find yourself sitting on top of the large bed that you woke up in. After a few seconds, a pair of the pastry people from the ruins opened the door, carrying a large platter of food. Yes, it would seem that you certainly will be here for a while...

The food in this vast feast that sits before you is so good, that you can't help but start pigging out! After a while of gobbling up as much food as you can, you find that you're so stuffed that you cannot eat another bite. *"Are you full already, dearie?"* The Lipomancer, who you almost forgot was there, said. You tiredly nod. *"Very good, dear, now let's get you back to bed... You still need some time to recover from that little incident of yours~"* [[Continue->feastend1]]

After having eaten a modest amount of food from the feast before you, you decide that you are finished. *"Oh? Are you finished eating already?"* The Lipomancer asks, tilting her head. You nod, and the Lipomancer simply smiles. *"Well, at least you are eating enough to survive now. Come on, let's let you rest up~"* And so, the Lipomancer leads you back to your room for the day, letting you rest and digest... [[Continue->join?]]

It has been a few weeks since you were rescued by the Lipomancer, most of which you spent eating food that the Lipomancer and her food constructs had kindly provided you, and sleeping. You wake up in your crumb-covered bed, feeling hungry for breakfast. As you try to get up, though, you notice that you're having more trouble lifting your weight than usual. In fact, you cannot lift your weight anymore. As you're struggling and hopelessly trying to lift your immobile body, the Lipomancer enters your room. *"My my, has my little pig gotten too big to move~?"* You sheepishly nod, a bit embarrassed. *"Well that explains why you haven't come out to eat your breakfast yet. You had me worried there~"* Several of the Lipomancer's servants enter the room with platters of all sorts of breakfast foods. *"Don't worry though, my little pig, that just means we'll just have to feed you breakfast in bed~"* And so, from then on, you get breakfast in bed... ...And lunch in bed...And dinner in bed...And dessert in bed... ...In fact, you eventually just had a constant stream of servants bringing you food, feeding you as you grew bigger and bigger... ...Eventually, you grew too big to even feed yourself, and the servants would have to feed you themselves. Occasionally, you would accidentally eat one of the food-servant's hands while they stuffed you.

It has been a few weeks since the Lipomancer had rescued her from her ruins, and you have fully recovered from your malnutrition. In fact, you are a little pudgier than before now, but that tends to happen when you eat food created with magic. While you are reading a book in the Lipomancer's library, the Lipomancer approaches you. "It is good to see that you have recovered from your inability to manage your weight, dear... Can we talk about something?" The Lipomancer asked, sitting down with you. "You see dear, I had a deal with the village. I used my powers to provide their farms with bountiful harvests. In return, they would seek out greedy adventurers and send them into my ruins, where I would test their willpower." The Lipomancer started to explain. Well, that would certainly explain why the villagers didn't seem too terribly fearful for their lives. "Of course, every single adventurer that has tried to fight me has failed. Each and every one succumbed to their greed, doomed to remain deep within the ruins... Until you arrived." "When you starved yourself with those wretched potions, I felt pity for you, dear. So I decided to give you a different kind of test. I took you in, and attempted to fatten you up myself. Yet, you didn't succumb to your greed, nor did you try to starve yourself once more. In fact, you've passed your test." The Lipomancer stood up, towering over you, and lended you her hand. "I believe there is a power in you. A power that, with some help, we can mold into a most powerful talent. Join me, Adventurer, and I will teach you the ways of Lipomancy." Will you join the Lipomancer? [[Yes->joinyes]] [[No->joinno]]

After taking a moment to think about it, you accept the Lipomancer's offer to join her, shaking her hand. "Very good, dear! We'll start your training tomorrow~" And so, over the following years, you learned the ways of Lipomancy with your new master, using your newfound talents to tempt or trap the many adventurers that came after you and the Lipomancer. Many years later, you would master the arts of Lipomancy, taking the title of the Lipomancer from your proud, but tired, Master. And so, the cycle continues...

You think about it for a moment, but decide the decline the Lipomancer's offer. The Lipomancer sighs. "I suppose it is your choice..." She says sadly. "I will let you leave, though you must promise to tell no one about your time in these ruins. But I should at least give you a reward..." She then hands you a pouch, inside which you find more than enough gold for you to retire with. As you are about to thank her, she interrupts you. "That is simply payment for your silence... But there is a catch. If you *do* speak of any of your experiences, you will feel a hunger the likes of which you will never be able to sate." She says grimly. Well... That is quite the catch. The Lipomancer then goes back to her cheerier, motherly self. "Goodbye dear, and make sure to keep a healthy appetite~!" She says. Then, before you can say anything else, she snaps her fingers, and you find yourself standing at the exit of The Lipomancer's Ruins. GAME OVER(if: $ending14 < 1)[ *"Loose Lips Feed Hips!"

It would seem that the monster also realizes this, and has stopped attacking you. Instead, it gets more of its friends. Eventually a large crowd of various food monsters of various shapes and sizes have gathered around you, then they start getting closer. One of them starts trying to stuff itself into you. You try to resist, but more and more of the creatures start feeding themselves to you. It seems like you'll be stuck here for a while.

The Village Chief and the Shopkeeper stare at you apprehensively for a few seconds, then the Chief steps forward. "Hello, Adventurer... There is a funny explanation to all of this." You listen to his story. "You see, the Lipomancer made a promise to us that as long as we kept sending adventurers to sacrifice to her, as well as helping to fatten them up should they need it, she would not terrorize our poor village. It's not that we have much of a choice in the matter, since she could easily destroy this village if she felt like it, so we were forced to accept this deal." The Shopkeeper nodded in affirmation of the Chief's story. "So you see, there is only one way we can avoid perishing at the hand of the Lipomancer. We must keep sending more adventurers into the Ruins as sacrifices, and pray that one of them actually manages to slay the witch..." "...So what say you, Adventurer, will you stay and be that adventurer?" [[Yes->willstay]] [[No, this is crazy!->iamleaving]]

The village chief sighed, pulling out a scroll. "I'm sorry, Adventurer. We can't let you leave this village. The Lipomancer would have our heads for it, especially now that you know her plan." The Chief unrolls the scroll and tosses it in the air. After floating in the air for a few seconds, the scroll bursts into sweet-smelling flames. Then, there is a breeze throughout the whole shop.

You try to move, but you find that you're tied down! "Ah. Good morning, Adventurer." The Village Chief comes down the stairs, followed by the cake golem that had pummeled you into the ground before. "So, the Lipomancer has heard about your little escapade and put me in charge of taking care of you... And I know exactly what we're going to have you do first." He gestures to the Cake Golem, which steps forward to you. Suddenly, it starts stuffing its massive fist into your mouth, forcing you to eat it. "First...

(set: $venture to $venture + (random: -20,20)) Eventually, you manage to lead a path to the surface somewhere in the Ruins. You aren't exactly sure *where* in the ruins you are, but can still see the Lipomancer's tower as a frame of reference, so you can guess which way you need to be going.

You decide to climb down into the pit to see where the paths you saw lead. (display: "pitfalltravel")

You are a bit shocked by what you see in the mirror. Despite everything, you are shockingly underweight. Your figure is quite sickly looking and skeletal, and your face looks ghastly and sunken. You know you've been trying to watch your waistline, but you're thinking you might need to loosen up a bit. You know, like what your clothes have been doing.

From what you can see, there is hardly a single pound of fat on your body. In fact, whatever far you had from before you arrived in the Ruins also seems to be missing. On a more concerning note, it also feels like you've been losing a bit of muscle now that your body doesn't have any fat to burn. Maybe a little bulking up wouldn't hurt right now?

You're looking like you're in good shape at the moment. You have your Adventurer's figure, and you don't have too much fat on your body. You decide to do a few poses in the mirror to confirm this.

You can see that you've got a noticable amount of pudge on your body at the moment. When you flex your arms, you can still make out your muscles, but you definitely look more soft than muscular otherwise. You give a few parts of you body a squish to confirm what you're seeing in the mirror.

It's quite chubby at the moment, to be honest. You've got an obvious gut and you can see you're forming a double chin. You squish your belly a little and sigh. The Ruins have definitely left their mark on you. You suppose things could be worse though...

Your body is pretty plump at the moment, hardly the Adventuring body that you used to have. Pretty much every part of your body is squishy now. You can see that your stance is wider than it would be thanks to your plush thighs. With a sigh, you lift your sagging belly a little and drop it back down, causing it to jiggle a little. You're definitely gonna need to work hard to get this weight off when this adventure is finally over...

That figure is definitely not a very in-shape one, is it? You try to do some poses and flexes to find your muscles, but the best you can do is see a bit of your biceps. Every time you change your pose, your fat jiggles. Yep, you're definitely quite fat now. Well, on the bright side, your chest and rear have been growing with the rest of your body...

...You can hardly tell that you're an Adventurer now. No matter what pose you make, you can't see any signs of muscles (aside from the fact that you're carrying all this fat, of course). Worse yet, making those poses actually feels a bit like exercise now, rather than just posing. You can see that your double chin is starting to consider forming a triple chin, and your breasts are starting to sag under their weight and resting on your gut, which has also decided to join the doubling-up bandwagon.

You look quite strained, to be honest. But that makes sense, considering just how heavy you look. Your chin has decided that it wants to go all in on being triple, and your belly is beginning to look more like a really thick and fleshy apron with how big it is. Your rear and legs have also gotten quite thick. Actually, all of your body has become wider in general. Basically, you've gotten really big.

You actually have to take a few steps back to see the entirety your rotund body in the mirror, which isn't a good sign. Your gut now covers the tree trunks that you call your thighs, which has been making it that much harder to waddle along. You can also clearly see why you've been getting stuck in doors more often, as your waist and rear are quite significant. Of course, that's not even mentioning the rest of your body, which has been growing as well. Your neck is almost completely dominated by your chins, and your cheeks have become quite fluffy. Your arms are at least twice as thick as a person's legs--maybe even three or four times--making reaching for things a hassle you try to avoid. Your chest is certainly large, but they are definitely losing their perk...

You notice from your reflection that you are breathing heavily, depsite having stopped to catch your breath. You have become utterly corpulent as of late, and the mirror makes no effort to hide that fact. Your form completely dominates the mirror with how wide it is. Your legs are thicker than some people's torsos (except yours, obviously).Your arms have become incredibly heavy, making reaching for things more straining. Right on queue, your big gut lets out a growl when you at it. Honestly, you aren't sure you'll be able to continue adventuring after this. Not without a *lot* of exercise that you aren't sure you can pull off...

When you see the whale that stands gasping for air in the mirror, you get a sinking feeling. You aren't sure how much longer you can keep up, as you are barely able to lift the weight that you are currently looking at. You are finding it quite difficult to see your body past your oceanic belly, even with the help of this mirror. Though, your rear is still proudly peeking out with it's doorway-clogging girth. Honestly, if they weren't so sore from all this standing you're doing, you would find it hard to believe you have feet. Meanwhile, the upper half of your body is looking bigger than ever. Your arms have gotten big enough that your upper arm looks more like a circle, and it has become excruciatingly difficult to lift them. Your neck has taken it's leave, with your head and plentiful chins kinda just sitting on your blobby shoulders. As for the rest... The best way you can thing to describe it is "shapeless".
