Turn 1

Trip: (Free) You are a humen wizard and thus you have an access to a variety of magical utilities. Whatever sort of magical implement you use is up to your discretion. You have additionally been equipped with a spellbook, some provisions, and some coins. (1) However, you are also ambiguously gendered, like Vaarsuvius from Order of the Stick. While you yourself may know your own gender, the forces of this universe will actively prevent such knowledge from ever coming to pass. You find yourself in the middle of a temperate forest area. The land seems to slope up in one direction until the forest clears out. Nearby there is a small path leading downward with several fungi growing alongside it.


Makuta 9999: (Free) You are a human battlemage. You have come equipped with a quarterstaff, provisions and currency as well. While you are potentially capable of most magical feats, destruction magic along with temporary weapon augmentation are your specialties.

(5) You find yourself spawned in a fairly large room. Four ornamented, wooden columns stand near the corners of the room. To your left, there is a large, multicolored mural depicting a battle scene. Towards the left of this image, there is a column of about six spearmen in phalanx led by a man wielding a thunderbolt in his right hand. The right side of the image shows more spearmen and archers fleeing in disarray. There appears to be some writing beneath the image but as of yet you don’t recognize the language. The front and back walls contain more writing and each side holds an entryway, with a spider figure mounted on the top of them. The right wall is covered in writing, yet several pictures/facades line the sides. A figure of a man with a large, conical headpiece protrudes from the top of the wall with his arms extended such as to display the writing below. A wide column sits in the middle of the room littered with more writing while a spider sculpture of lapis lazuli perches on top. From a round aperture in the roof, sunlight pours down upon this column almost as if the thing were enchanted. You don’t see anyone else around at the moment.


Omega Shadowcry: (2, since I had to look up that race suggestion) You are part human and part goat-looking thing. You don’t get any special bonuses from this. Since goat-looking things don’t exist as a main race in this setting people might be suspicious of you. Peacekeeper sounds sci-fi/modern so I’m assuming your a fighter. You have various melee weapon proficiencies, but your weapon of choice is up to you. You have come equipped with scale armor, foodstuff, and coins. Additionally, you have a circular, bronze/wooden shield. You find yourself spawned on a grassland area. You see a forest in the distance and a flock of sheep in another direction.
foxmccloud 4387: (Free) You a two-headed giant that is also a rogue/assassin. This combination may cause problems in the future. You have a sword which you use like a dagger since you’re a giant. You have basic supplies and can also do stuff like sneak attack and acrobatic feats. You have spawned near a river. You see a small farming village in the distance. Sorry if this post is a bit lackluster compared to the others.
NE Sgamer 190: (Free) You are a dorf fighter wielding a massive, two-handed warhammer. This warhammer is of the finest craftsdwarfship. It is made of bronze and studded with cedar spikes. I don’t remember the DF formatting style. You are really good at dealing damage with said warhammer. You have come equipped with plate armor along with basic provisions. (3) You find yourself spawned in an expansive cave-like hallway. The ceiling isn’t particularly high but it is good enough for a dorf to maneuver through. Many torches line the hallway, but several of them seem to have died out while the rest look like they’ll burn out soon. The area is dotted with bones of dwarves, ash piles, various small creatures that have decided to make a home here. You find coins scattered amongst the corpses, but nothing else of particular importance. The floor also seems to be lined with volcanic material such as obsidian. Some portions of the walls have engravings of bears alongside dwarves, but many seem to have been damaged.
Thespacephantom: (5) What!? How can this be? Your character is a human who somehow possesses a mountain bike despite the fact bikes are not supposed to exist in this universe. Depending on your weapon choice, you are in effect a cavalier/nomad/mounted unit. You come with basic supplies along with some extra stuff for maintaining your bike. If your bike is pink and meant for little girls, you also get increased healing whenever you eat strawberry pancakes. You spawn alongside a beach. In one direction, you see a small cliff face while in the other you can see a small town. The air seems slightly cool in these parts for some reason.
bRaHiAn1: (Free) You are a human scribe. Because you are a scribe, you are literate and experienced with diplomatic situations. Although plausibility would dictate otherwise, you can understand most languages with ease. You also have a bunch of knowledge-based skills that I don’t feel like detailing at the moment. You have a small weapon like a dagger for protection and some basic foodstuff, but you have loads of money (for a starting class anyway). You spawn in a grassy area alongside a road. You see a large train of horse-driven carts heading towards a village surrounded by a wooden palisade in the distance.

Turn 2

NE Sgamer 190: (5) As you navigate the corridors of this labyrinthine cave, you prove surprisingly efficient in looting the corpses. In fact, you manage to snatch a silver ring near one of the skeletons. It takes you a few minutes, but you eventually find the exit along with a set of dented doors made out of some material you don’t recognize. Outside, the surrounding area is covered by a thin fog. The ground before you is covered with near-dead plantlife extending for some distance. Beyond that is a heavily forested area.

Should you turn around, you’ll notice that the place you left sits at the base of a mountain, and a mountain chain extends far into the distance. From the outside, the entrance to the cave is embellished with bears and other design motifs. Above, you see "Axehelm" written in dwarven. To the left of the entrance, two large circular hatches made of the same material as the doors are lodged into the ground. One of them appears significantly damaged. You can see another entryway where one of the hatches would fit, but you don’t see any place where the other one would go. You start hearing a faint pitch akin to ringing.


The Space Phantom: (4) You approach the town on your bike. As you close in, you notice three galleys docked near the shore and several round skin-boats floating farther into the sea. You enter the village, surrounded by a wooden palisade, and catch quite a few stares from the human inhabitants. The houses here are noticeably long and made of some earthen-clay material. At the center, you come upon a large stone platform with several decorative pots and bird-like statuettes. Somewhere near the end of the town, you see smoke coming out from some of the houses. Many people stop what they’re doing and start crowding around you. One woman approaches you and says, “Would you happen to be one of those people from the East? If so, or if you’re from somewhere different altogether, I would like to take you to the high priestess.”
Rivux: (Free) As strange as it seems, you are a centaur rogue. Despite being a sizeable horse-human hybrid, you are capable of doing roguish stuff and somehow specialize in pickpocketing people. You have the speed of a horse and can eat whatever horses eat. Like most, you are equipped with basic provisions along with a dagger.

You spawn atop a hill, from which you can see a large, sprawling city along the coast. Three major roadways, filled to the brim with people, lead into the city, two of which go off toward mountains in the distance. Alongside one of these roadways, you see a wall-like structure glowing at several points along the top. The city is separated into a walled inner section and a series of outer districts. You can see a massive black structure sitting in the center of the interior portion along with two smaller towers. You see smoke rising from one of the outer districts away from the main roads. In another district, there is a large building away from most of the other houses. Some distance away, you can hear carts and people moving along with several voices of a nonhuman variety.


Lord Herobrine: (Free) You are a shade necromancer. You can raise dead to form a squad/battalion of undead mooks and you can also speak with the dead. You have darkvision and are slightly more powerful in areas of darkness. Unfortunately, you cannot do stuff like teleport or make clones of yourself as of yet. You have basic provisions along with a magical implement of your choosing. You also start out with one zombie spearman, who is dressed such that people don’t immediately realize it’s a zombie. You spawn in a place covered in a strange mist. Most of the area seems to be covered in perpetual twilight except for one end, where the sky gives in to daylight. You feel the cold wind brush across you while it makes a distinct wailing sound. Most of the plantlife appears decaying or dead. Two rows of dead trees lead off in some direction. You see a small child glowing toward your right, far away from the rows of trees. It appears to be looking at you.
Foxmccloud 4387: (6) You march triumphantly towards the village, shaking the ground with each step. Content that you will complete your mission with ease, you are oblivious to the sounds of screaming coming from the village. When you get close, an arrow hits the ground just in front of you, and you see a mass of humans with makeshift weapons standing at the edge of the town. One individual near the edge of the crowd stands out, and seems to be the only one with a bow. He’s also the only one with a helmet and scale armor, or any sort of armor at all. One of the farmers at the front of the group shouts out, "It’s an ogre from the empire! We must protect the women and children!"
bRaHiAn: (2) From your current knowledge, you feel as though you don’t have enough information to know whether or not it is possible to set fire to the sun in your current state. You have wasted about an hour trying to contemplate this, and the large caravan has moved on elsewhere.
Trip: (1) You try performing a spell for detecting evil. The process seems to be going smoothly, but towards the end of the spell, you realize that as a wizard you don’t have anything in your spellbook for detecting evil. The spell blows up in your face and you fall to the ground due to knockback. Also, you have accidentally set one of the trees on fire. You hear voices along with shuffling coming from down the road.

Turn 3

bRaHiAn1: (1) You start heading towards the village. But during your walk, you see a unicorn in the distance. You become entranced by its majestic beauty and start chasing after it. You do this for half an hour or so and eventually it leads you into a heavily forested area. After a while, you finally catch up to the thing. As you try to catch your breath, the unicorn kicks you in the shins, toppling you over. It turns around and laughs at you, then trots away. You have no idea where you are and you are also exhausted from running.


The Space Phantom: (4) Upon hearing your response, the woman starts leading you towards another end of the town. Everyone else starts scattering to go about their normal tasks. You come upon a house much larger than the rest. A painted cloth depicting a raven hangs above the entryway. Before you, a rather portly lady wearing a feathered bird mask and a purple tunic sits on a stone seat. Beside her, you see a bowman bearing enough resemblance to the masked woman to be her brother. You see pots scattered at the edges of the room. At the far end of the room, you see a few people working on a vertical loom.

The masked woman stands up and then speaks, "Well Shoshanna be damned! You oughta be one of them Eastern fellas. Thats a mighty fine piece of work ya got there. Hard to believe kings could somethin’ like that. Anyway, I don’t know what you be here for, but you might be able to help us. Couple of our folks have gone missin’ while going out to some of the other villages, includin’ some of our hunters. We don’t know what’s goin on but we’re pretty sure whatever we’re dealing with is coming from the forest in the South. Some of the other villages are havin’ the same problem. I’d go myself but I got a village to run. We don’t have much to offer, but if you can help us out I might be able to offer some of my magic. I don’t think that sculpture of yours can fly, can it?"


Lord Herobrine: (3) Using some stones you find on the ground, you manage to craft an amulet with magic. Unfortunately, the amulet doesn’t appear to have any magical properties, and it is now made out of wood. The child starts singing, and it is still staring at you.
Rivux: (5) You take a few minutes to get yourself over to the main road. While walking alongside the myriad travelers, you look for potential targets. The first thing you notice is that kobolds comprise a significant majority of the traveling composition, and a line of kobold archers passes you by. Most of the civilian kobold travelers shift around too much to make effective pickpocketing targets. However, you do see a few groups of dwarves and mushroom-looking people. One of the dwarves is standing away from most of the others and has a small sack strapped to his behind. In fact, the little fool struts along like he’s the most important person in the world, raising his knees up has he goes. Watching for anyone around, you go in and take the sack off his person. The dwarf doesn’t suspect a thing. You find that the sack contains a few coins, a flask holding some red liquid, and a scroll with a seal featuring a flame insignia. (Note: You can use the flask or read the scroll as a free action)
NE Sgamer 190: (5) You quickly realize that hiding anywhere near the cave complex won’t do you much good. Therefore, you make a dash towards some of the trees ahead and hide yourself behind one of them. Should you peek back, you’ll find several ghastly figures rising out of the dead ground. Dwarves, kobolds, goblins, and bears comprise the lot, many of them misshapen or missing chunks of flesh and limbs. Their movements seem jerky and unnatural, even for ghosts. You get the feeling that whenever you take your focus off one of them, all the others jump to somewhere you don’t expect. Beyond them, you see several skeletons hobbling out from the cave complex. You hear a piercing, wraith-like shriek come from the largest ghost bear. Several bears start charging toward the dead ground, but they don’t seem to notice you.
Trip: (3) You start running up the sloped terrain. But since you’re a wizard and you’re running uphill, you don’t get too far before you need to take a breather. At about this point, the forest starts to give way to rocky terrain, and the area farther up goes much steeper. You hear someone yell far behind you, "Quick, put out the fire! Somebody find whoever did this!" Another voice remarks, "Yeah this got to be the work of a witch alright. Don’t care how high they are up on the chain, this is why ya don’t trust any of them witch folks. Ain’t got no goddamn respect."

Well, by Armok's beard, I made a good call for avoiding contact. Apparently, the undead are what claimed this cave... As much as it'd be a good show to see two armies of undead duke it out, that'd put me in danger.
