Ah, the Skullstone Depths. A place of unrelenting terror and unspeakable evil. A place only the foolish would dare tread, choked with the bones of those who would not heed the signs.

Naturally, this means somebody wants to chuck unskilled peasants in there. That's where you come in, being an unskilled peasant somebody grabbed and hauled off to the requisite location. You'd complain but, unskilled peasant.

Besides, it's not all bad. Whatever's in there has got to be faster and cleaner than plague, and if you're lucky maybe you'll actually accomplish something! Wouldn't that be nice?

Spoiler: Warning (click to show/hide)

This game exists because I'm too lazy to properly plan and test things myself, so I'm going to experiment like this instead. Quality, length, and stability are likely to be poor as a result.

A lot like your life as a peasant, in fact. Isn't that a neat metaphor?

Spoiler: Mechanics (click to show/hide)

They're in flux, sorry. Even if you figure them out, there's no guarantee they won't change after a bit to test out a different method.

This does mean that some things will be patently unfair, but on occasion they might be unfair in your advantage.

Hey, that's kind of like your life as a peasant too! Isn't this a coincidence!

Spoiler: How to Join (click to show/hide)

Name is all that's strictly required; you begin with no skills or equipment to speak of. A short description might be nice, and you can include a bio but the guards won't read it or acknowledge you have one.

In the event of your inevitable demise, you may immediately rejoin the waitlist.

Victims:
-Currently listed in a spoiler at the end of each turn

Waiting Victims:
-So far everyone who wants in has plopped right in

Brutalized Corpses:
-Wait, how is this one empty?!

Turn 0: Fearsome Guardians


The four of you are unceremoniously tossed down a hole, where you fall for a while before landing on a pile of bones, tattered cloth, and other garbage. It's actually not so bad, relatively speaking.

There's a torch mounted on the wall directly behind you, and you can see the flicker of light ahead. Which is good, because it helps illuminate the two creatures standing before you- they're probably best described as bipedal puppies, and they appear unarmed and unclothed.
