PREQUEL, or Making A Cat Cry: The Adventure* ... or Everything Is A Federal Fucking Issue And Also Trying To Make You Miserable, or Katia Managan: Alcoholic, Vasilikphobe, Adventurer, or Slutcat Adventures 2: Daggerfall is an interactive Elder Scrolls fan comic in the style of MS Paint Adventures, written and illustrated by Kazerad with various artistic collaborators. It is primarily based on The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, set in the weeks just before the events of the game's story.The comic follows a poor young Khajiit from the province of Hammerfell who decides to start her life anew in Cyrodiil. After giving herself a new name — Katia Managan — she becomes determined to leave her old self behind. Unfortunately, Katia is quickly faced with the same problems she had back home: she has no money, no trade skills, no friends, chronic night terrors, a crippling phobia of nobles and royalty, and is still recovering from a severe alcohol addiction.Although her efforts to do better initially seem doomed to failure, she quickly befriends Quill-Weave, an Argonian writer who takes pity on her and asks her to take a letter to a friend in another town. Katia fares no better than before, but Quill-Weave refuses to give up on Katia, and it begins to look like the Khajiit might leave her problems behind her — but at every step, events conspire to drive her back to her old habits, to the point that her "bad luck" starts to seem like divine intervention...The story was originally hosted on the MSPA forums, but now has its own website featuring a submission box, discussion, merch, side-stories, an occasionally-NSFW fanart booru, and links to notable fanpages.Due to the nature of the comic and its story, this page may contain unmarked spoilers for Oblivion.

Fauxshadowing: The orphanage full of explosives is an obvious disaster waiting to happen, especially when the protagonist has fire powers that aren't entirely under her control. So far nothing has come of it, and given what a dark turn that would be, it probably never will.

Dare to Be Badass
 Prequel (Webcomic) / int_1f862cf
comment
Dare to Be Badass: A Rousing Speech on this subject is what ultimately pulls Katia out of her self-loathing rump. The ancestral ghost ("Aggy") refuses to believe that anyone born under the Atronach star sign can be destined for anything less than a life of total awesomeness and badassery, and refuses to leave Katia alone until she accepts this as fact.

comment
Katia states in the comic she has no interest in romance, and that she only wants friends. However in one case, Dimitri, the necromancer that Katia slept with if you look past him taking advantage of her, was shown to be a sweet and affable guy (Probably a Punch-Clock Villain since he's a necromancer and all) with a love of cats and a genuine crush on Katia. Thought she is likely to have no interest in him anyways. Then he runs afoul of Gharug gro-Upp.

 Prequel (Webcomic) / int_20c309b1
comment
Infinite Canvas: Aside from the interactivity of the adventure itself, the dream sequences push the bounds of what defines a panel. The first includes Katia hiding from the monster in a spoiler box, which it then breaks into. The second has a young Katia slowly descending a staircase hanging suspended in midair as you scroll down the page, with something nasty slithering around just out of sight in a truly innovative bit of programming. This is lampshaded by Kazerad referring to the panel as "witchcraft" when crediting those who made it. And this Flash literally captures the ripping of the fabric of space-time.

Anachronism Stew: The metric system exists in this version of Tamriel, and the sweetrolls Katia buys on the sixth day came in one of those cardboard donut boxes with the window in the lid.

Mythology Gag
 Prequel (Webcomic) / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: All over the place, being a fan prequel to Oblivion: The very nice elf in robes at the entrance to Kvatch who showed up early to the party his friends had planned. The "Lelles' Quality Mercandise" sign is an actual mispelled sign◊ in Anvil. The music which Katia chooses for travelling to Kvatch is the "Nerevar Rising" theme which plays in Morrowind sung with meows. At one point Katia begins to have small talk with a "Stranger" known as "Capital S" AKA Gray Fox who plays an important role in the Thieves Guild quests in Oblivion and has a plot-related reason to both being creepy regarding the countess and only being known as "Capital S". Brother Martin gives Katia the jibblies, which is odd for a mere member of the clergy. In Oblivion, he's actually the illegitimate son of Emperor Uriel Septim VII, so he's triggering Katia's fear of royalty - despite how, at this point, even he doesn't know this is the case, much less Katia. It's later revealed that Sigrid's ridiculous charisma comes from bathing in Fortify Personality potions, taking advantage of the infamously broken alchemy mechanic of Morrowind. Said potions happen to be bought from the necrophiliac alchemist from Skingrad. While Vaermina is pondering the source of Gaius's nightmares, she first asks if Gaius is a vampire, then if they are in the province of Morrowind, before admitting that she's stumped. In the Elder Scrolls universe, attempting to sleep as a vampire causes the player character to have horrible nightmares each time. Also, at various points in the Morrowind main story, the Big Bad Dagoth Ur would attempt to communicate with the player (and several NPC's) through their dreams. While walking through the Kvatch Mage's Guild, Katia can comment on a portrait of Sigrid that shows her hold two fireballs, one in each hand. Katia remarks that "maybe it's a Nord thing". In Oblivion's sequel, Skyrim, players were allowed to duel wield spells for the first time. While Katia is in Kvatch, she pays a few visits to the local arena. In the actual game, the Kvatch refugees would often tell the player of the marvellous things Kvatch had: like the arena. Usually, the refugee who tells you is Boldon. In Katia: Excelsior!, you can approach an old wood elf in the local tavern sporting a familiar yellow ice cream cone hairdo. If you persist on talking to him, he will drunkenly insist that he has no son. Given that he looks like an older version of the Adoring Fan from "Oblivion", one can sympathise if he's not too fond of his likely offspring. In Katia: Infiltrate, someone has left a note on a bed with the words "Jesan's Bed", and inspecting it will provide the message of "You can't sleep in an owned bed!", referencing the oddity of not being able to sleep in beds that aren't yours in most Bethesda games.

Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Sigrid. In public, a charming, generous, and above-all friendly individual famed for her acts of charity. In private, a ruthless opportunist and a potentially murderous Misanthrope Supreme who controls others through mind-affecting pheromone perfumes. However, the latest update shows that this is probably the result of her own charm-enhancing perfume affecting her mind and, essentially, turning her into a sociopath.

What Did I Do Last Night?: True for multiple interpretations of "do" and a literal interpretation of "what". For example, Katia really wants to know what happened with that necromancer. And the skeleton. Especially if it... you know... participated. Is that even possible? All she knows is that the teeth marks on the ballgag aren't hers.

Easter Egg: Hidden behind a wall in the Enter interactive segment is a portrait of Hannibal Traven.

The significance of this painting has yet to be fully explained, though it implies some history between Sigrid and Traven.

Lampshade Hanging: Katia doesn't believe in lucky charms, since if they worked, it would trigger a feedback cascade that results in whoever finds a Four-Leaf Clover having nothing but good luck ever after, finding more good-luck charms and getting ever luckier. Gro-upp gets his hands on some four-leaf clovers, and spends the next week (in real-time, the better part of a year) and counting, enjoying loads of good fortune and finding ever more of the things.

Noodle Incident: What did happen with Katia and that pineapple and yoyo? It's kind of hard to describe, but I can draw a picture if you want... Also one where she apparently lost all her fur. She calls it the "razor incident". It happened recently enough that it's the reason her facial fur hasn't all grown back in yet.

O.C. Stand-in
 Prequel (Webcomic) / int_3e22702
comment
O.C. Stand-in: Quill-Weave and Sigrid, who are minor NPCs in Oblivion with professions matching their portrayal in the comic. Played with though; most of the recurring characters other than Katia like Asotil or Dmitri are characters that would be considered nameless Mooks in Oblivion or live in Kvatch. The entire city of Kvatch fits this trope, in a way; since it's only visited as a smouldering ruin in Oblivion, almost any location, event, or character can fit there.

Motive Rant: Sigrid gives a big one to a captive Katia when she gets carried away explaining why she's entirely justified in using magic to control what people think. It's a bizarre mix of Then Let Me Be Evil, Opportunistic Bastard, Above Good and Evil, and The Evils of Free Will, and Hobbes Was Right. As of the latest update, it seems to have been the result of her charm enhancements affecting her sanity.

Stop Being Stereotypical
 Prequel (Webcomic) / int_4dc88e20
comment
Stop Being Stereotypical: Used multiple times, alternately Played for Laughs and Played for Drama. First, Rajirra scolds Katia as an embarrassment to other Khajiit (who are stereotyped as shifty thieves and drug addicts) for suggesting that they break into a building through a window when in fact they're going to get a key, from the owner, since they have permission to enter. Likewise for picking something up she finds. Rajirra herself pickpockets Katia and flees at the first sign of serious danger, though, and Katia calls her out on it mentally. Later, Katia insists on not being stereotypical by not taking any gold she didn't earn, even though she's allowed to do so as a guild member...but when she gives in, it turns into a gold-shoveling minigame, with score counted in "Khajiitness".

But Thou Must!: Despite being an interactive story in which the main characters accept commands from the audience, when things have gone bad enough for her Katia will dejectedly turn down commands urging her not to drink and drink up in spite of them. There are also at least two instances wherein Kazerad wrests control of the story away from the audience and sets Katia up to make a truly terrible decision only to have, in one instance, a Deus ex Machina literally kick the door down at the last moment and, in another, show that Katia is actually a good deal stronger and more capable than the Audience gives her credit for.

Fantastic Racism: Given quite a spotlight at times. Although few people intentionally insult Katia for her species, a lot of them reveal through accidental comments that they expect less of her for it only to hastily insist that they aren't actually racist. For Katia's part, she's spent so much of her life surrounded by this kind of prejudice that she's internalized it to a startling degree, having little-to-no understanding of Khajiit culture beyond the racial stereotypes that have been applied to her and others.

Bunny-Ears Lawyer: A Soldier Of The Imperial Legion (Asotil for short) is clearly an incredible fighter and quite good at running down criminals. He also has an understanding of social norms such as "Don't pee in rich people's houseplants" and "Don't drop a bunch of dead bodies on the carpet in the middle of a dinner party", but technically they are not against the law and therefore are perfectly fine to do. Although this is perhaps closer to The Last Dj as the countess does not tolerate him and was in fact delighted at the slightest chance that he might have been killed. Gharug Gro-Upp seems to be another example, what with him treating his profession as though it were a modern-day business venture and plastering himself head-to-toe with four-leaf clovers. He's also the most successful outlaw seen thus far.

Ship Sinking
 Prequel (Webcomic) / int_67fe4b8e
comment
Ship Sinking: The author has sunk Katia/Quill. Not only is Quill already in a relationship with someone else, Katia as straight as an arrow, in addition to the fact that she would rather not ruin their friendship, regardless. Katia states in the comic she has no interest in romance, and that she only wants friends. However in one case, Dimitri, the necromancer that Katia slept with if you look past him taking advantage of her, was shown to be a sweet and affable guy (Probably a Punch-Clock Villain since he's a necromancer and all) with a love of cats and a genuine crush on Katia. Thought she is likely to have no interest in him anyways. Then he runs afoul of Gharug gro-Upp.

Guide Dang It!
 Prequel (Webcomic) / int_6ec989d8
comment
Guide Dang It!: Easter eggs in the Flash games can be extremely difficult to discover and find. Readers searching for all of them basically have to either do everything possible or look in the comments for answers. The pole-dancing minigame in Kvatch requires the player to speak to the Nord in the arena entrance several times, in a comic where talking to one NPC more than twice rarely yields any results. Seeing the alternate nightmares and encountering the three-eyed lava dragon in Prequel: Precede requires the player to jump through quite a few hoops, and the comic never indicates that these even exist beyond the background of the update page showing the back wall of the hold blown open. All of these things must be done to see everything: In the first nightmare sequence, when Katia is on the top deck, stay out of the ghost's sight (best done by walking around him on the raised portion in the ship's rear) and walking to the ship's bow. There, Katia will briefly glimpse a hooded figure covered in eyes - possibly Hermaeus Mora - before waking up. On the first or second day, you must examine the dumbwaiter in the ship's office, then locate a dwarven pipe, a wand of fireball, and some weights in the hold. Then, during the second nightmare sequence, examine the door in the back, collect the pipe, collect the wand, collect the weights, and examine the door again, in that order, before the water level has risen above Katia's head. Katia will create a bazooka to destroy the door. After this, travel up the dumbwaiter to see Vaermina talking to Hermaeus Mora on a cellphone. She will accidentally reveal that she knows more about Katia's nightmares than she has let on before Katia wakes up. On the third night, if you have seen the first two alternate nightmares and participated in the condiment minigame, the third nightmare will be completely different. Instead of being kidnapped and murdered by the crew, Katia will see a bizarre, three-eyed golden dragon in the hold. Katia will attempt to speak to it and offer it crackers before it roars out "Champion of Nirn" in Dovahzuul, waking her up.

Aristocrats Are Evil: Probably not, but Katia is absolutely terrified of them. She actually finds the Countess to be quite alright when she gets over her fears. And one of the dinner guests lampshades it by pointing out all the insane nobles in the area. She seems to be able to detect noble blood by instinct, as she is incapable of holding a conversation with Martin while visiting Kvatch. Note that at that point, Martin himself had no idea he was the Emperor's son. And completely averted by the Count of Kvatch, who only shares a couple sentences with Katia, but is very polite, and apparently he encourages adopting orphans. Quill-Weave, on the other hand, has no qualms using morse code (tail-tugging) to privately tell Katia◊ what her thoughts on Countesses are.

Foreshadowing
 Prequel (Webcomic) / int_9d12bbc1
comment
Foreshadowing: There is a fair amount of this. For instance, Katia's fire spell, one of the two spells that every player character in Oblivion starts with, is foreshadowed on the fifth page. ("Cat jokes always cut you deep. That burn was so sick it lit the candle.") Also Katia's ability to get in and out of clothing instantly, a common trait of RPG heroes. When staying at Quill-Weave's home for the night—the third time, when it was on purpose, that is—Katia says that she was worried about sleeping in the chapel, because she could accidentally burn it down if someone stole her amulet. This is exactly what happens to her in Kvatch (though the amulet isn't stolen, but broken). "Party trick involving a yoyo and a pineapple" is mentioned first on third page. "Anyway, tripping on stairs? You’re not that much of a klutz." At one point, Katia complains that Rajirra is, among other things, most likely an escaped convict. Assuming she is the protagonist of Oblivion, that's exactly what she'll be as well once the main storyline starts. Sigrid being able to manipulate people's minds is hinted at a few times before Katia finally encounters her. Not only does everyone act like she's the most amazing person ever, the bookstore owner casually mentions that books on magic only cost one septim (compared to the 40 other books are worth) because "the lady from the Mages Guild" told him that's what they're worth.

Doomed by Canon
 Prequel (Webcomic) / int_a1e5faab
comment
Doomed by Canon: Given its titular status as a prequel to Oblivion, it's safe to assume that most if not all of the comic's original characters are going to either die or leave Cyrodiil before the end of the story. Some notable examples: She's only been mentioned so far by the Guild Master Hannibal Traven, but the Khajiit mage Zahrasha is murdered by necromancers shortly after Hannibal takes office as Archmage. Kvatch is going to be destroyed by Demonic Invaders about a week after the current timeframe of the story, with most of the characters Katia meets there likely to die — Captain Gaius in particular is all but confirmed to be doomed. Foreshadowing is out in force on this one, as Katia and the city's residents frequently make comments about the city that veer into Tempting Fate.

Eye Scream
 Prequel (Webcomic) / int_a2b38d3b
comment
Eye Scream: When Katia attempts to use Eye of Fear (a Khajiit racial ability that can be used once per day in-game) for the second time in one day, her eyeball fills up with blood and starts dripping it. Seems even worse initially, because the scene we see it for the first time suggests that a slaughterfish bit Katia's eye out Also happens whenever she forgets to turn off her night vision in broad daylight.

Mood Whiplash: In what may be a clever case of emulating the moods of the character through whose eyes we're viewing the world, the tone of the comic varies between a goofy comedy, Black Comedy, and pure drama — sometimes within the same animation — depending on how Katia is doing.

comment
Naked People Are Funny: The whole morning after Katia's first night in Cyrodiil plays this with Katia and Gharug. In Dodger: Break the Law, Quill-Weave panics and rips off her top. Her chest is immediately censored, before someone mentions that she's a reptile, prompting the censorship to go away because she doesn't have nipples. Kazerad's Merchandise Retrospective where he discusses the methods that he used to ship out merch from the Prequel crowdfunding. Nearly every illustration features either Asotil or Quill-Weave naked. After Katia finally defeats Sigrid, the both of them are naked because Katia ditched almost everything but the Cloak of Grey Tomorrow and her painted on underwear, and Sigrid's clothes have been torn off to get rid of the charm magic. Sigrid later summons a Flame Atronach, who pumps her arms up and similarly strips down.

 Prequel (Webcomic) / int_a65288e2
comment
Ascended Extra: Many of the comic's major characters are incredibly minor NPCs from Oblivion. In the game Quill-Weave is a minor character involved in one quest. Here, she's a fully fledged secondary character, and her errand for Katia is the driving focus of the plot. Sigrid, the mysterious and alluring headmistress of the Kvatch Mages Guild, is one of the Kvatch refugees in-game, notable only for having the highest mercantile skill in the game, making her the worst possible merchant to buy from. Asotil is a loose amalgamation of all the generic guards in the game and the memes surrounding them.

Dreaming of Things to Come: Katia's regular night terrors bear a striking resemblance to the opening of Oblivion — being trapped in a frightening situation with Emperor Uriel Septim VII. They're ambiguous enough to leave their meaning unclear, but she's apparently been having them since she was four.

In Katia: Excelsior!, you can approach an old wood elf in the local tavern sporting a familiar yellow ice cream cone hairdo. If you persist on talking to him, he will drunkenly insist that he has no son. Given that he looks like an older version of the Adoring Fan from "Oblivion", one can sympathise if he's not too fond of his likely offspring.

 Prequel (Webcomic) / int_c75df49a

Shout-Out: Aggy uses the 'Life gives you lemons' proverb, except changed in a way to involve exploding lemons, because they are the worst fruit. There are also a number of references to MS Paint Adventures: Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff is quoted quite a few times. "We are doing this. We are making this happen." The mural in the Kvatch Mage's guild is a reference to the shitty multiethnic murals found throughout Problem Sleuth. It's even featured on the wall the camera does not see normally. Katia's attempt to rappel out of the Kvatch general store using the Imp Murderboss's intestines is a reference to the player character doing the same with a flying whale's intestines in Jailbreak. Equipping a cloak makes Katia's sprite's arms to disappear underneath it◊, referencing the art style of most of the MSPA comics. The prompt that follows asks Katia where her arms are, cuing her to hold them up at shoulder height, much like in early MSPA pages.

Drugs Are Bad: Alcohol does terrible things to poor Katia, and mind-altering Telvanni Bug Musk is what drove Sigrid off the deep end.

Immune to Fate: Inherited from its Elder Scrolls setting, there is a concept of heroes whose fates are unwritten. Katia may fall under that as the main recipient of reader commands.

Pooled Funds: Discussed when the readers suggest that Katia dive into a large pile of gold. She points out that coins don't actually behave like water, and even if they did, the pile's not big enough and she can't swim.

Body Paint: As an alternative to nudity when you have literally no other option. BEST IDEA. It doubles as an in-joke since the painted-on underwear looks exactly like the irremovable underwear from the game.

All Animals Are Dogs: Katia has a habit of wagging her tail when she's happy. While some cats do wag their tails, they're exception rather than the rule. Weedum-Ja actually comments that this is not normal, and along with her Hammerfell accent and Altmer clothing, is a sign she wasn't raised around other Khajiit.

Fourth-Wall Mail Slot: Katia can hear the reader suggestions because they're explicitly the voices in her head (causing her to lose faith in her subconscious whenever they suggest something stupid). At one point, she addresses a reader by screen name, though. Interface Screw: Some users have taken to identifying themselves as particular elements of Katia's subconscious, such as self-loathing, common sense, hope...

Square Race, Round Class: Katia is an Atronach, which means she can only absorb magicka and not produce it. In game this is one of the hardest builds possible for a mage, as many enemies don't use magic at all. Dmitri is a Redguard. They are horrible mages as well, due to stats that strongly favor warriors. (That said, Word of God says Dmitri's half redguard, half breton, so it should even out.)

Running Gag
 Prequel (Webcomic) / int_f9f2c33
comment
Running Gag: The audience making cat puns as Katia, who responds with annoyance. Apparently she didn't notice the name... The worst of these puns will also randomly set things alight. "...and you are certain this action will have no negative ramifications at all." Early on, Katia running and cowering behind a guard when scared. Early in the story, a reader logically disproved the existence of luck as demonstrated by the necessarily exponential growth implicit in the collection of four-leaved clovers. When Gro-Upp shows up again, his body plastered with the damn things, it becomes apparent that this reasoning was flawed. Gharug gro-Upp likes to get his joke on, if you know what he means (He means he has a running joke too.) "...at least, you're pretty sure that's how that works." Characters consulting The Imperial Dictionary whenever they need linguistic help.

The Power of Friendship: Rather violently subverted in Katia's nightmare sequence. She wills into existence an image of Quill-Weave, so that they could face the King together... only to watch her friend being eviscerated by the King seconds later. Seems to be played more straight in the real world though.

Brick Joke: Katia rejects the idea of finding a good luck Four-Leaf Clover as silly, since if that worked, anyone who found a single four-leaf clover would experience an exponential increase in good luck, including finding more of them. Garag finds a four-leaf clover, and the next we see of him, he's covered in four-leaf clover and having the luckiest week of his life.
