The Wizards
My Name is Immaterial:Collect keys.
You grab the rest of the keys lying around the room, or from the rats that don't seem too keen on harming you anymore, and unlock all the locks on the door. With a sense of achievement, you step through the doorway and into the next room.
Felissan:Dive-kick Rat 2 before Jonas tries grabbing its key
[12] You kick it in the chest and a major blood vessel bursts, killing the rat. After Jonas unlocks the door, you limp after him.
crazyabe:Try again.
[9177] You afflict yourself with
Wrist Twist: Target's hands are twisted to face the opposite way.
You feel a burn inside you on the left side of your waist, but it doesn't do any lasting damage. Suddenly, the rest of your guts give away, and you collapse - dead - on the ground...
...but not for long. The enchantments from the scroll take effect, and your consciousness regrounds itself in your body. Your stomach seems to be healed now, although only weakly, and your leg is just as broken as before. After a moment you realize that everyone else has left the room, and carefully pick yourself up (as best as your hands allow) and shuffle through the doorway.

Name: Jonas Rasmussen
Appearance: An old man, with a magnificent white beard that stretches down to his knees, dressed in deep blue robes, and a cap, ending in a rather wilted point. The thumb and index finger of his right hand is now gone.
Backstory: Magic was a very late calling for Jonas. He was born the son of a smith, and took an apprenticeship with a traveling tinker at a young age. He took well to the traveling life, and the tinker profession, and took over the business after his master grew too old to continue his life on the road. He did well for himself, and eventually took an apprentice himself, who he passed the business onto when he met a kind widower, and settled down. It took him a decade of married life to realize how much he missed life on the road. He bought a wagon, some tinker tools, and set out, with his wife by his side. She succumbed to a fever a few months later in the middle of nowhere, at the gate of wizard's tower. Having lost their cart, horses and all their material possessions to bandits, Jonas begged the wizard for help, some way to restore his wife to life.
And so began his magical education.

Name: Félix
Appearance: A young cloaked man, blindfolded with a mask.
Backstory: Félix lived most of his childhood as a street urchin in a far-off country, until he met in the street a wizard, who came as an ambassador of this land. Trying to imitate him without any knowledge of magic, he accidently displayed a great talent for binding life energy. On his travels back home, the wizard decided to take the kid with him, to show him to a master who would help him control his powers better. He eventually became experienced enough in scrying to see the world around him better through the flow of energy than with his own eyes. He felt like he owed too much to his master to just dismiss this part of his life after his death, so he went to the dungeon along with his fellow apprentices to avenge him.

Backstory: In his culture, losing one's master is a huge stigma unless you avenge them. The cloak of darkness is the magical equivalent of a paper bag over the head.
Name: Zan
Appearance: Zan appears to be a human... paladin.
Backstory: Zan is a human paladin since several years ago. Then he got hit by an odd bolt from a magical artifact and woke up with the memories of a thousand-year-old evil wizard. He promptly underwent training to get his wizard powers under control... then his master died. Time for a paladin's justice.
Replacements for when the Above Die
Name: Vestarus the Old
Appearance: He is a wizened old man, with a long, grey wispy beard and wrinkled skin. He wears a wizard hat to cover his bald head. His dark brown eyes gleam with vigor and life.
Backstory: In his childhood, Vestarus was tested for his magical affinity. Having enough aptitude to become a wizard, he was sent to Kolarus Academy- the finest Magic Academy in his local province. He studied there till he was 30, but was unable to make any significant progress, despite his efforts. The Academy, believing he was fated for nothing, kicked him out. After being kicked out, he wandered the world for many years, learning much about life, and enjoying his limited time on the Mortal Plane. When he was 50, he met a wizard named Selmir, who agreed to take him on as an apprentice. After recieving Selmir's guidance, and studying for many years, he managed to breakthrough to become a novice wizard at the age of 72. Learning of his master's unfortunate demise in the dungeon, Vestarus was enraged and swore to avenge his death at any cost.
Name: Bob
Appearance: A rather youthful young man, not pass his twenties, with a sparkle in his eye and an air of youthful optimism and curiosity about him.
Background: As it turns out, tutelage fees are non-refundable, even upon the death of said tutor. Bob worked so hard for a proper university education, and dang right he is going to make the most of it!
Name: Nix II
Appearance: A moustachioed gentleman in long black robes, with a very large purple turban sitting on his only slightly smaller head. He is missing his left hand's pinky, ring finger, and middle finger. His left hand is missing its left side.
Backstory: A seeker of knowledge in all its forms, Nix roamed the land finding teachers, learning here and there from any he could find. Magic, the purest form of knowledge affecting reality, seemed a logical choice. To his surprise, he found a teacher willing to teach him all that he knew, and the two became friends. Before Nix could learn what he desired, his friend was taken from him. For the first time, motivated by more than just curiosity, Nix ventures into a dungeon with anger in his heart.
Name: Fred Jones
Appearance: Take an average human male, wearing all-purpose robes. They're good for running away from stuff in. Now give them cat ears for no explicable reason.
Backstory: He's here for the money. There's money, right?
