[TSG] Land of the Dead v2 (Come join us!)
« on: May 13, 2014, 09:38:48 am »

Link to the previous thread!
((This is the new Land of the Dead thread. I made this in the hopes of some more people joining. That would be you.))
Previous update:
Yeah, let's check.
You tell Mel what you're going to do, and you all spend the next couple of hours trying to find loose bricks. The wall between you and Vin is very weak, and the rear wall of your cell has a few loose stones, but none lead anywhere but dirt and stone. Vin reports that his opposite wall is sturdy, and so is the back one. Mel hasn't said anything about the condition of her cell, but it must be fairly sturdy. You have to stop searching when you hear footsteps coming from the western hallway. A soldier appears, bearing a platter of bread and cups of water. He sets a cup in each cell, and tosses everyone two rolls of bread each. Once you've all finished, the guard takes the cups away and leaves.

Reserved Okay, a bit of immediate context:
Your party is Jon (You, a battlemage), Mel (Best friend, a fighter with magical capabilities), and Vin (The resident trap, a siege-archer)
You are all currently stuck in a dungeon, because Vin's short temper angered the king. In all fairness, the king was kind of a jerk. Vin has two concealed daggers, but you and Mel don't have any weapons. A magistrate, Ser Donavin, is imprisoned with your party. You are all in different cells. Three of the four have magic powers, but you can't control Donavin. Oh, and some of the walls aren't too sturdy. And you've just been fed. There are no guards around at the moment. I think that sums it up.

Overall context:
So, you were a normal 16yo who went to game-con. There, you found a futuristic console that was being developed by Valve. Because of the nuclear reactor inside the console (or something like that) you were teleported to this land, Etorya, where you found out you have magical capabilities. In fact most people do, but it is mainly untapped and hard to control. I'm not just filling in with my part of the story, no. You then trained a bit, fought some rats, sang with some drunks, got kicked out of a tanner's shop because ponies, got sad at a blacksmith's store because monies, met Vin at an inn, went to sleep, woke up, Vin was missing, got assaulted by a scary zombie, Vin- Oh, yeah necromancers plague the land. They're the main antagonists for now. Vin killed the scary zombie with arcane fire, Mel woke up, we met Ser Donavin, we got an audience with the king, the king was a complete jerk, the king, Duso, was insulted that we dare say a zombie (aka construct) was in his city, Vin insulted his city's defenses, we were thrown into the dungeons, Vin found some lose stones, we were then fed, and here we are now. Sometime ago I also forced Jon to friendzone Mel. That sums up the story so far, I think. And Mel doesn't have a real name that we know of.

Ask Ser Donavin how long people are usually kept down here? Also ask if anyone other than yourself, Ser Donavin, Mel, and Vin happen to be down there!

Hey, Ser Donavin! How long do you think we will be down here?
I don't know for sure. I usually carried out the investigation, not the sentencing. We could be down here forever, for all I know.
Is there anyone else here?
Not that I know of. If someone else was down here, I'm sure they would have spoken up by-
Hello? Is anyone down there?
You're unsure who the voice belongs to, but it is definitely a male's.

Introduce yourselves, ask who he is.

Also,

Try to poke Vin through the hole in the wall.

Hi. We're the new prisoners here. Who're you?
A short young man steps into the faint torch light, looking fairly distracted.
Oh, well, I'm Nathan. The castle smith's son and apprentice.
Nice to meet you. Do you happen to have any keys?
No, I don't. Look, I'm in a hurry. My sister has run off and no one can find her. You haven't seen her?
No, we haven't.
Wait, what does she look like? What's her name?
Oh yeah, uh, she's a bit short, like me, and has shoulder-length black hair. Her name is Carel. If you see her, tell a guard, okay?
Alright.
Okay then. Bye.
He walks off back towards the exit.
After he leaves, you stick your hand into the hole you and Vin made, and try to poke him. You succeed!
Ach, hey! What are you doing?
Annoying you because I'm bored.
Well then exercise or practice your magic or something. Just don't poke me!
Okay, okay.

-1. Potential for it to go horribly wrong is too high.

It was barely able to shove a dwarven zombie, what's the worst that could happen?

((So many things I don't even want to list them. Besides, your point right there kinda shows that it would probably fail anyways.))
