I take it that meteor is sort of important?

Alright, I'll type up the intro to the main quest sometime. Looks like everyone just wants money... alright.

'Zrk'-
Zrk: So... Have any Titles you need filled?
Duke: In a way... yes. I need someone to save our kingdom.
Zrk: Huh....
Spoiler: Status (click to show/hide)

The Duke stood up in the room and walked down from his elevated chair.
Duke: Gentlemen, our very kingdom is in grave danger. Many of you have seen the blizzard and the hair of flames that happens as we speak. This is not an abnormal occurrence for us.

The group gave the Duke a distrusting stare.

Duke: Two great monsters--deemed Yaetrix and Schazin by our historians--have plagued our lands for centuries. A great power struggle between the two has led to countless deaths as their armies of superhuman beings fought massive battles. The two have to regard for our people, and when they call upon their greater powers to assist them in their power-struggles, they bring forth all manners of disasters upon our people, such as the blizzard you saw today.

Porin started to grin.

Duke: I ask you now to answer our pleas and save our kingdom!

Bjorn spoke out.
Bjorn: Wait a minute, if the king rules this land, then why are you asking us? Do you speak with his authority?
Duke: The king is a joke. He cares for his capital only, and leaves it to his, his subjects, to guard his kingdom. However, the threat is too great. My meager army cannot traverse the jungles that lie in our path, nor the swamps, nor the deserts. The king sees me as a traitor for defying his authority, but the two beings cannot continue to live, for their conflicts are drawing closer to the capital day-by-day.

"We'll deal with it, my lord." Tarran said as he left for an armor enchanter.

Quote from: Phantom
Unknown to most but the insane and the mystics, Tarran is actually Earth itself, as Earth is sentient like that planet in Avatar. Originally Earth used names such as Terra on the internet, but to protect it's identity it changed letters, now becoming the Tarran you know today.
Quote from: Ze Spy
Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

"Chance to be big hero. Always welcome," Porin said, grinning. Plus fighting big monsters was more fun than fighting a mad dwarf. A dwarf could be much scarier than most monsters; they tended to be insane in large groups. He still remembered the stories he had heard from some of the elder kobolds who had raided fortresses and lived. He wondered how any of the humanoids could still be living after their suicidal rushes for socks. "Which way?" he asked. The sooner he could set out, the better!

(5) You manage to struggle free of the guards and sprint to a safe distance before tossing a knife at one! (5 + 1 = 6) The throwing knife zips through the air, slitting a guard's throat! It then travels around the group of guards like a boomerang. It (5) Slits another throat, (Three 6's in a row!) decapitates three more (!), (4) slices open the last guard's arm, and (2) narrowly misses a random bystander. It then flies back into your hand. Holy crap.

Porin Keeperechoes-
Porin: Chance to be big hero. Always welcome. Which way?
Duke: If you with to slay Yaetrix first, he dwells in the icy caverns of Morokar, the ageless glacier. Should to travel there, you must first cross the Murk of Frost, an ocean, and then brave the endless tundras that surround it.
Should you choose to slay Schazin, the fiend of fire, then you must fight your way through the tribal jungles of Sakanth, travel through the barren Nahi Desert, and finally reach the volcanic isles of Volthnir.

Bjorn Inmus-On the way out, Bjorn concentrated on his telekinesis. Wishing to expand it, he shifted all of his attention to it. As a result of this, (1) he slipped on a shard of glass and broke his focus, forgetting how to utilize telekinesis altogether.

Taric walked into the Royal Gunsmith and talked to the clerk.

Tarran Terra-Tarran followed Taric and (3) caught sight of a small magic shop  Entering it, he talked to the mage in front of him.
Mage: I'm terribly sorry, but we only have spells available at the moment. However, quite a few of our customers have magical abilities. You could talk to them. What is it that you are looking for?

Nihilius 'Cogs' Vekt-
Cogs: It will be a pleasure. Is there any more information that could be had about these two monsters?
Duke: Certainly. Yaetrix was once a grand wizard fighting for the side of good. Overcome with jealousy, he betrayed his fellow wizards and mastered the art of cryokinesis. He built an army of icy horrors that he used to lay waste to the region surrounding his home. Now it is but a barren wasteland. He lives in an underground fortress teeming with traps and guards. He has the ability to surround himself in ice to fight in a battle-worthy form, so be careful when fighting him!
Schazin, however... nobody has ever seen him and lived. We know nothing except that he prefers to stay in his volcano. Beware.

'Zrk'-
Zrk: We'll need animals, supplies, guides, equipment, bacon, and anything else I come up with while we're packing.
(1)
Duke: Are you sure about that? You may each take supplies, but I am too pressed to spare much aid as of now. I will send my army to fight on your behalf should you require their help, but I fear they will be mercilessly slaughtered. They aren't quite the brightest bunch, you see...
Spoiler: Status (click to show/hide)

Following the generally optimistic reception of the quest, the Duke began to stroke his beard and spoke.

Duke: Your help is greatly appreciated. I will give you what help I can, and perhaps you will need it. Good day!
