Ruby Quest is a concluded imageboard-based Interactive Comic and RPG styled as a text adventure, created and DMed by a certain person nicknamed Weaver on the /tg/ board of 4chan. It ran from December 2008 to February 2009.It begins when a rabbit named Ruby wakes up in a cell/locker. Together with a cat named Tom she soon meets, they perform puzzles, fight horrible abominations, and try to escape the massive underwater complex they're in. They also meet Red, a creepy but helpful enough fox with a truly awful Evil Laugh; Ace, a giant bird and servant to an unknown master; Filbert, the former head doctor turned delusional; and several unnatural abominations, all of whom used to be normal and innocent.You can get more info on the plot, characters and also participate in discussions, making theories and guesses on possible plot developments here. For the story itself, look here. WARNING: Some of the threads there contain very NSFW fan art, as does the 1d4chan-article. There has also been both a Facebook fan-page and Tumblr site created for discussing, posting news, ect. for Ruby Quest and also its Spiritual Successor, Nan Quest. Weaver's own /tg/ Tumblr blog can be found here.A mirror of the story is available at the MS Paint Fan Adventures page. A Flash retelling of the whole story, cutting out most of the discussion, fan-art, and additional jokes/threads/clues (but leaving in choice comments) can be seen on FurAffinity right here with a FurAffinity account (disabled Mature Content Filter), or on InkBunny right here, no account required if you meddle with the Allowed Ratings. The InkBunny version can also be read here, with no settings-fiddling required. You can also read the full story on evilcorporation in three versions: a slideshow-like sequence, a scene selection screen, and a long single page. And finally, there's the Let's Read version by Co Lab HQ (teaser), complete with full individual character voice acting when applicable.A music album based on Ruby Quest has been made. It can be found here or downloaded here In addition, the artist has made an 8-bit version. High quality version of both albums can be purchased here. All the money made off of this album will go to Weaver.Now has a character sheet. For additional details and those not directly related to the plot, see Trivia. For a list of quotations relating to the game, see Quotes. For a series of relevant images, see Image Links.Compare to the white chamber, a Point-and-Click Game with several thematic overlaps (and which Weaver has acknowledged as an inspiration).Weaver has started a "Behind the scenes" series on his tumblr. | |

The Unsolved Mystery: Everyone is still clueless of much of the stuff. Weaver has answered most of the questions anyone cared to ask, however. Indirectly, of course. | |

Anyone Can Die | |
| Ruby Quest (Webcomic) / int_1237828f | comment |
Anyone Can Die: Word of God said no one in the story was destined to live or die. According to Weaver in the questions forum, Stitches and Jay were never meant to survive, Stitches was meant to be trapped in the locker and Jay was meant to be mercy killed, however when the players chose to give Stitches the photo and save Jay, Weaver had to do some quick rewriting for the "Good" ending. Also according to Weaver, if the readers chose for Tom to smash open a certain secured case instead of unlocking it, it would have killed him immediately. Fortunately, the players were smart enough to heed the warning labels, and instead used the case's lethal trap against Ace during an escape sequence to stop him in his tracks, though it would also end up serving a second fuction of showing how much of an Implacable Man Ace is. | |

Harmful Healing | |
| Ruby Quest (Webcomic) / int_1ff3b1d6 | comment |
Harmful Healing: The all-purpose 'Miracle Cure' has some... unfortunate side effects. Essentially, it's some sort of Eldritch Abomination that can heal any injury or illness or even revive the dead, but the longer it's applied the more horribly mutated the subject will become. Mild cases may result in an extra pair of hands, More Teeth than the Osmond Family, or a third eye; a severe case turns the afflicted into... well... this◊ or this.◊ | |

Chekhov's Gun | |
| Ruby Quest (Webcomic) / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: A few. One of the most obvious is the double-duty condom, which serves as both a solution to a puzzle, and implications that Tom was involved with sexual relations, possibly with Ruby. Also the picture of the patients standing together happily, which she later uses To get Stitches to help them. Though it wasn't supposed to be used for that. Ruby finds a severed hand at the beginning, and far later uses it to see videos of Ruby's Ax-Crazy behavior before the facility was abandoned. Although it probably wasn't supposed to take that long- Ruby prolonged it by putting the hand up a pneumatic chute, which removed it from the game for a while. | |

Tomato in the Mirror: Multiple times. In chronological order: Ruby was once murderously violent, and killed Tom and Stitches. Ruby and Tom are infected with the Cure, the substance that created the zombies. Also, every creature in the Metal Glen Was Once a Man. Finally (although this is only revealed to the players), Tom Nook is not the 'extremely dangerous' Subject #6. Ruby's companion Tom is Subject #6, instead of Subject #5 as he believed. Tom Nook is the real Subject #5. | |

Sealed Evil in a Can: The 'can' in this case was a room buried under the ocean, which was discovered when the Brig was excavated. In the room, they found several artifacts, like a leatherbound dummy on a rotating pivot, a small green statue of a fetus-like creature, a dial with a picture of an eye on it, and several weird staves made out of green-stained wood, along with a red, filmy substance. Using that substance as a medicine resulted in the sealed evil being released into the Metal Glen. | |

Meaningful Background Event: Several: both Filbert and Bella are first shown like this, for instance. In either case, when the players tried to prompt Ruby in looking at them, they would be gone by the time she did. Whenever past events are shown though some mannor, there are a few minor differences that have a big meaning; such as the horrific area of wall that Stitches body was bound to showednote (or what looked like) a beautiful landscape paintingnote (strikingly similar to that of the High Roller from Dive Quest). | |

Off the Rails | |
| Ruby Quest (Webcomic) / int_60eac4ba | comment |
Off the Rails: Played with. There was only a happy ending because the players, in essence, broke sequence. Early in the game, the players sent a severed hand through a pneumatic mail chute, removing it from the game until much later on. The hand was meant to be used on a fingerprint scanner in the next room over. Because they couldn't activate the scanner, they were unable to see the video of Ruby murdering Tom in the past until well after the group had bonded, completely blunting its impact. At one point protagonists escape Ace by crawling through a pipe they'd previously made a hole in. Weaver suspended the game for about an hour, drawing the new location at the exit of the pipe, which he didn't expect the players to reach this early. When the players were confronted with a locked medicine cabinet, they had Tom bash it open with a crowbar. This gave them the Tranquilizer, allowing them to sedate Stitches (whom they otherwise would have needed to kill, as he had the key for the cabinet) and give him the picture of the facility's patients standing around happily. This leads to him pulling a Big Damn Heroes and saving Tom from a Heroic Sacrifice. | |

Lovecraftian Superpower | |
| Ruby Quest (Webcomic) / int_77a5657 | comment |
Lovecraftian Superpower: The Cure mutates those who've taken it whenever they get hurt, eventually turning them into horrific monstrosities like Stitches and Daisy. Death sets the mutations back, though. A list: Red, who got a Glasgow Grin courtesy of Ruby, has the Elemental Plane of Teeth. Ruby, after being scratched on the head by Daisy, gains a Third Eye. Tom, who has two small extra arms on his abdomen. Filbert, who cut his own hand off and was hit in the face by Ruby's barbed wire covered glove, has a giant arm with fleshy spikes, a giant mouth, and teeth stronger than steel. Stitches remained alive even when reduced to a head, a spine, and a puddle of blood, and was able to be stitched back together again. Daisy, along with legs fused together, an emanciated figure, and her spine poking out, had a mouth where one of her eyes should be and one arm turned into a giant claw. | |

Quest for Identity: Neither of the characters know very much of their past. Subverted in that they never actually find too much answers, either. Weaver originally intended to have Filbert try to use the information about the characters' pasts to keep them from getting on the tram. When the time came this was impossible, for obvious reasons. | |

Chaotic Stupid: Mostly averted, as Weaver usually does not act upon /tg/'s sillier suggestions, but he does comply a few times, giving both Ruby and Tom their moments. Ruby has done stuff like put a severed hand up a pneumatic tube and lick an organic electrical wire (it tasted bad). Tom has smashed things up for no reason several times, and once grabbed a 'DO NOT OPEN' sticker for no apparent reason, and then wore it over his eyepatch on the chance it would prevent people from opening him. | |

Foreshadowing: Early in the game, Red called a "survivor", though it was still not clear that there was any sort of major disaster. Also pretty early on, Ruby has what looks like a hallucination of Tom with four arms. It's later revealed that Tom did indeed have four arms, although his second set were smaller than his first. Later, Bella refers to 'The patient in Upper Lab B' instead of 'Subject #6' (who was the one imprisoned in Upper Lab B. Because Subject #6 was not imprisoned in Upper Lab B, and Bella knew this. The patient in Upper Lab B was Subject #5. | |

Already Undone for You: It seems most everyone else can get around the facility just fine without solving all the elaborate, extensive puzzles like Ruby and Tom, apparently. Probably Justified with Filbert, who as head doctor would likely have a High-Clearance Access Card. | |

Oh, Crap!: Numerous times, but especially: Also, every single time Ace shows up.

Cutting the Knot | |

When the players were confronted with a locked medicine cabinet, they had Tom bash it open with a crowbar. This gave them the Tranquilizer, allowing them to sedate Stitches (whom they otherwise would have needed to kill, as he had the key for the cabinet) and give him the picture of the facility's patients standing around happily. This leads to him pulling a Big Damn Heroes and saving Tom from a Heroic Sacrifice. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Ruby Quest (Webcomic) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: All characters are based upon Animal Crossing characters. This fact was directly referenced by Red while using one of his AC counterpart's famous lines.note "HOLD ON NOW, FRIENDS. RED CAN'T LET JUST ANYONE THROUGH THIS DOOR. YOU HAVE TO PROVE YOU'RE FAMILY. PART OF RED'S SPECIAL FAMILY." It hurts it hurts it hurts it hurts Weaver has admitted that the white chamber was one of the main inspirations for Ruby Quest. Several scenes, in particular the fan scene, are taken directly from it. An early command suggests carving a pumpkin into the shape of a keycard to solve a puzzle; Ruby, however, is stated not to be sleuthy enough to do so.note (Given the similarity of the two projects, this reference was probably inevitable) There is also a couple of System Shock references with a Body Horror shouting "Please kill me! and another inserting 0645 into a keypad. This was also probably inevitable. Weaver references two William Murdochs in the game; as both the engineernote (creator of the pneumatic tube) and the poetnote (to which he accurately mimicked the style of while writing his poem, The Metal Glen — Possibly a Literary Allusion Title). "He menaces with spikes of flesh at Tom." IA IA CJOPAZE FHTAGN At one point, Ruby reassures Tom that "There's nothing wrong with her, and if there was, she's better now," a direct quote from The Thing (1982). Tom's "radio crackers" at one point when Ruby calls the walkie-talkie. Bella remarks how there is no infection; the only disease is the one the doctors made. This has a similarity to Stephen King's The Stand. | |

Early-Bird Cameo: Bella gained the fan nicknames 'Monitorface' and 'Monitorhead' because she had a couple of cameos consisting of her face appearing on the monitors scattered throughout the building. Filbert appears for one panel in the background when Ruby first enters the Maintenance Room (he's in the Dummy Room and visible through the window that Ruby was looking away from at that point). Tom Nook and Jay both appear in the Group Portrait long before they show up in person. | |

Mercy Kill | |
| Ruby Quest (Webcomic) / int_f3626b09 | comment |
Mercy Kill: Bella. After three opportunities for Ruby and Tom to end her life, and failing to do so, she finally snaps and gives them no other choice. Subverted with Stitches. The players were supposed to kill him and get the key he had, but by then they'd bashed open the cabinet that the key unlocked. The cabinet had tranquilizer inside, allowing them to subdue him nonlethally and stick him in a locker. And then Ruby decided to give him the picture of the Metal Glen's patients together and happy, motivating him to come back and attack Ace to save Tom. Also subverted with Jay, A.K.A. Emobird. By Weaver's own words: "His role was never originally going to be as an ally. He was in torturous pain and asked to die. I figured you'd kill him or leave him, but then like a billion people were like SAVE HIM, and I'm like "Well... I... OKAY!". I honestly couldn't think of any reasonable excuse not to let you save him: I mean, he wasn't locked up or anything." | |

Railroading | |
| Ruby Quest (Webcomic) / int_f6f6adeb | comment |
Railroading: A common accusation by the trolls. Used later literally (and justifiably) in a flashback, when Ruby completely ignored the players when they wanted to have a pleasant chat with Stitches and instead threw him into some deadly fans. Lampshaded at the end sequence, when Weaver describes the automated tram, including the phrase "CHOO CHOO". For a long time, Ruby firmly refused to reveal her third eye to Tom, but under strong pressure from the players, she reveals her secret, which probably saves a lot of grief later. Also, Word of God says that Red had rigged his riddle so that even if they had answered right, he would still not let them in. | |

Sequence Breaking | |
| Ruby Quest (Webcomic) / int_fb111d49 | comment |
Sequence Breaking: Instead of searching for a key to a particular medicine cabinet, Tom smashes it open. This gave players the tranquilizer ahead of time, allowing them to incapacitate Stitches instead of killing him. In a similar vein, Tom kills Filbert in a Curb-Stomp Battle, preventing him from potentially halting Ruby and Tom's escape later in the campaign. Also when the thread has them go up a pipe. | |

Early in the game, the players sent a severed hand through a pneumatic mail chute, removing it from the game until much later on. The hand was meant to be used on a fingerprint scanner in the next room over. Because they couldn't activate the scanner, they were unable to see the video of Ruby murdering Tom in the past until well after the group had bonded, completely blunting its impact. | |
