What is Derming?

Derming is what happens if you lose. As a result, mcclay gets his secondary choice of metamagic, since exploding everything in astonishing fashion is just a tad overpowered.

Double post to get us started.

As you hand your form to the small man, you are suddenly teleported to a tent. A man in simple military garb shoves some basic equipment and spellbooks into your hands, as well as a note.

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE HELL YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO GUARD, AND THERE'S SO MANY OF THE DAMN THINGS I COULDN'T BE BOTHERED TO LIST THEM ALL. JUST DON'T LET PEOPLE SCREW WITH IT. OH, AND THIS IS A WRITTEN SPELL MEANT TO KNOCK YOU OUT AND GIVE YOU THAT TATTOO. SWEET DREAMS.

Wow, that's real helpfu-snrxxxx...

You wake up in a cave. The cave is bland and generic, and you ponder why you were promised a map for something so boring.

Spoiler: Everybody starts with the same map for fairness (click to show/hide)

Each square is 1mx1m. The red square is your artifact, which you know nothing about.

You can hear a hubbub raising outside. What do you do?

You cast Summon Monster II, and an imp appears wearing a tiny tuxedo.
"Hello, ma'am. What shall we be doing today?"
You go investigate the ruckus, and it appears to be a bunch of villagers muttering amongst themselves at the mouth of the cave.
What do you do?

Investigate Ruckus!

[lemon10]

Misc note: While Arnak the chained is most certainly a Lawful god, he isn't a very nice god. At all. Oh nosirey.

Minor query: Where are we on the map (at the entrance to the cave, or closer to the artifact)?

Walk up to and examine the artifact, avoid touching it if it seems at all dangerous.

[TherosPherae]

Investigate Ruckus!

You go to investigate the ruckus. It appears to be a collection of men carrying a sign saying "Builder's Union of Tanslaria". They are all wearing hardhats and other equipment. What do you do?

Well I googled Arnak and nothing came up, so you may have to throw me a PM elaborating exactly what he's all about.

On the map, you're off to the left side of the cave so that you can't see whatever's making the ruckus. Well, now you're not, since you got up and went to go investigate the artifact. It appears to be a fairly mundane, circular gold amulet, aside from the fractal-looking hole in the center. It also seems to pulse the air around it with an odd sort of energy. You quickly decide that it'd probably be a good idea to leave it on its pedestal.

Search for any ignitable source to use as a light source.

Find something to ignite such...

[Terenos]

Converse with these.. Builders.

"What, are you doing here?"

You have no source of fire! OH NO! What kind of buffoon leaves a lady alone in a cave without any source of li- oh, there's enough light coming in from the cave entrance that you can see just fine. Crisis averted.

Converse with these.. Builders.

"What, are you doing here?"

"We are here to offer you our services. We heard that someone living here would be needing, ah... 'interior decorators' sometime soon. There are no wizards among us, so we cannot do anything magical for you, but we can most certainly create passageways, pits, spikes... anything you'd like. We can also provide you with tools to do it yourself, but I suspect you lack our experience in the industry. This is all, of course, at a certain cost, though."

[Terenos]

"To begin with, Give me some breakdowns on your prices. At the least, I will need a small room in the back of this cave. "

While I talk, size them up. Could I take them in a fight?
