The Expedition
« on: February 05, 2010, 07:18:18 pm »

You're a guard on an archaeological / looting expedition to the middle of the desert. A sandstorm blew through and scattered your team. After stumbling through the blinding sand for a long time you reach some kind of structure. You manage to get inside. It's dark and you can hear the storm blasting away outside.

You're carrying 5/20:
Clothes
AK-47
AK-47 Clip (3 rounds)
Engraved Lighter (Full)
Canteen (Empty)

You are very hungry. You are incredibly thirsty.

Name? >

Explore the structure like Indiana Jones during Raiders Of The Lost Ark.

Name: Illinois Louis or Ricky.

There's about 25 of the fuckers and the three sarge killed were at point blank range - it's got to be zombies or a bunch of really dumb terrorists with knives.

Alright, this looks like a job for Ricky "Illinois" Louis!

The structure is pitch black inside and it's not much better outside. It feels like you're walking on fitted stone. You can't smell or taste anything because your mouth is too dry.

Don't light the lighter yet, go out side by a foot and fire 3 rounds into the darkness.

You go outside and brave the scouring wind. You fire three shots ... into the darkness. Your gun is empty.

You're standing on the threshhold between the outside and the inside of the structure. You're pretty sure you're in the middle of this forsaken desert.

(You're wearing your clothes already, but good catch)

You light up the Engraved Lighter. In the weak light you see:

This is a hallway. Sand-covered stairs lead upward. The sand pools on the floor below them. The walls, floor, ceiling are made of huge stone blocks. There are scraps of faded plaster here and there.

Exits are East, West, and Up (Outside)

EDIT: I had planned to do a picture thing like 404, but I'm not as good at drawing as Squeegy and uploading all those pictures would be a pain.

You look around upstairs again. Nope, nothing new around here. The wind almost blows your lighter out.

Your AK isn't clip loaded. It's magazine loaded.

Heh.

(Yeah, and I'm totally not hung up on my art skills, but ease of production is an issue. I don't want to drop this game because of the image uploading)

(Yeah magazine, whatever, I got that bad habit from Shadowrun. It's empty anyway)

You head back down the stairs and hang a right.

Four-Way Intersection
The hallway branches here in four directions. To the west you hear buzzing. Sand trickles down from what appears to be a small air / light shaft. It's far too small to use, even if you could climb up there.

Exits are North, East, South, West. You came from East.
