Name: Derm: (Note: You're on the road, so I'll take your roll as "Head down the road". You don't really know what possesses you to do something so rash, but you start running down the road, towards the town. Not even you know what drives your mind...The thought of saving innocents? Looting their corpses? Slaying the dragon?...We'll see when we get there...[6] And, incredibly, you make it there extremely soon. Something is niggling in the back of your mind again, and it's...[5] Oh, right. This is extremely strange...You had entered what seemed to be a room, but you figured that it had just looked like it was outside. But, either this room is huge, or...Look! You spy the town up ahead. It's easy to spot due to the flames, but...You don't hear anything. No clash of battle, no screams of mortal wounds...
You reach the open town gate, and peer inside. From your view you can see the corpses of several dozen citizens, a few of them clad in mail. Almost everything is burnt horribly, with only scraps of flesh and clothing hanging on the black, skeletal frames. The smell is nauseous, and your stomach...[3] Holds out. Not very well, but it does, for now anyways. You pick your way through the massacre, trying to be...[5] as stealthy as possible. There's three buildings still (Mostly) standing, and they seem to be...[3] What looks like an inn, something else, and...Possibly a house? Should you investigate any of them, or...?
Name: Nassir: Does smart things! Looking dubiously at your already torn and wretched rags, you...[6] Manage to find a very large, thick piece of cloth hanging from it somewhere. Huh, you had never noticed that before...You wave the rag over the small slit in the middle of the room, and what happens then...[3] A small bit of green gas starts rising from the hole, and at a rapid pace. Thinking quickly, you...[5] stopper the hole with the rag. It seems to work, but you don't know for how long...Just a few whiffs of those fumes makes you feel dizzy. Best not to delay for long.
You ignore the fiendish churning of your idiotic stomach, and continue towards the statue. On a closer inspection, it seems to be about three and a half feet high. The face is warped and twisted, but it looks like some kind of hellspawn. Not something you'd want to tangle with...Good thing that this isn't one of those statues that suddenly reach out and choke you! Or so your mind tells you...[2] SUNUVABITCH, THAT STATUE JUST MOVED. Wait. Did it? You...you can't really tell, but maybe your intuition can...[5] Yes, it definitely moved. Which is probably a very, very bad sign. Between that and the smoke that was rising before (Before you stoppered it), which probably spells out very bad things. Then again, maybe some force is just trying to rive you out of the room...?
Name: Arc: Strange things that shan't be spoken of You steady your mind, and decide that today, you're going to push yourself to the utter limits. In a contest of wills, you and your mind fight against your aching, tired body in the attempt to manage THREE actions. The result is...[6] Beautiful. Absolutely incredible. Your body feels a rush of warm air, and the ache from your muscles just melts away. You're ready to get to work!
Your first task, is to find a way out of the room. This shouldn't be hard...You pull out your Iron sword an start hacking the greenery...[4] Nothing horrible happens. And as such, you...[4] Manage to find the door! But, it wasn't easy, and all that plant-murdering has tired you. Ah, well...You know where the door is now. (Just follow your "Trail".)
Secondly, you...Think about the quality of the fairy. Er, you feel like there's some great, god-like force that's confused, and irritated, at what you're attempting to do. Nevermind though, because you're Arc, the...[1] Fattest, laziest no-good peasant to ever walk the shoreline of the Lake of Stupidity. These depressing thoughts make you feel unhappy...Nevertheless, you think of the "Quality" of the fairy. Despite her tiny size, she was very beautiful. Her body was tight, smooth and most likely soft, and her skin a creamy white. She had long blonde hair, gently flowing down her back. Her eyes were a forest green, deep and tantalizing. The dress she wore was cute and tantalizing, draping over her...Wait! What are you thinking about? You shake these morbid thoughts from your head, and continue on your way...
Deciding that it would be probably a good idea to get some proper clothing on you, you begin to fashion some clothes out of...Uh, leaves and vines. You manage to make...[5] Some pretty good clothes, actually. You grabbed those vines you had seen before, and despite the fact that they smelled noxiously sweet, you used them to wrap the large leaves around your body. It doesn't really provide any sort of protection (At least from monsters), but it's surprisingly comfy, - The undersides of the leaves seem to be soft and fuzzy. What should you do now?
