The right man looks horrifyingly at a bloody dagger in his hands and screams "Turn away from this place!!">Your first choice.>1: Attack!>2: Speak boldly>3: Intimidate!!>4: hide and sneak up>5: Run?

The left man with a scar on his nose looks at you and laughs "haha we'll help ya do it! BUT! Our undying master DEMANDS that none disturb the dungeon doors, lest someone slip into the temple! SNUB!!" He gestures aggressively to his companion to step into an attacking position.."Snub" holds the bloody knife shakily and moves into position but says "aw no! I can't kill anyone else!" He begs you: "Please just go! RUN!"
>>6475318just to confirm: this multiplayer or? Saw the 6 player party thing but
>>6475461"Skub, I will be back to save you". Nobiko runs for safety.
Yes I'll throw you in
>>6475648Can you use magic without equipment?
The man wavers >for just a second< and it's enough to run throw the door behind you. Scarry face throws back his hood and roars "I'll kill the knife eared little twink myself!!" He lunges at you and you barely manage to close the door behind you before there is a THUNK into the wooden frame!There is no lock on the door, and he is slamming his weight into the door..The room you have entered appears to be a underground butchers shop, slabs of meat litter tables admist bags of ice. You can see a butchers cleaver hopelessly stuck into the near table, but you'd have to abandon your position by the doorway to pull it out. You notice a large animals jawbone hanging from a meat hook in the centre of the room. You also see a doorway down left and a door down right.1. Pull at the cleaver (STR check)2. Jawbone3.down left doorway4. Down Right doorway5. Other: hide, grab ice, loot etc

For equipment, you must hold your spell book to cast from it. As a wizard, you also cannot use most heavy warrior gear like shields or two handed weapons. You start with spells and the wizards robes, but nothing else not even a dagger!You open the door to find yourself looking at stairs going upward. The room ahead is a gaudy reddish storage room with the label "Red Room". All around you there are depictions of lush red roses in sprays of highly realistic bloodred crimson. Its hard to tell if the blood is real or not... It contains several racks of red cultists robes similar to what you saw before, with a red skull containing the rune 'ANIU' /green/ WIZARD: AUTO SUCCESS /green/ the rune is means "slave" and anyone who puts one on would be forced to follow a single spoken command..There is a locked closet on the right.You find there is a door leading in each direction! Each door has a tiny glimmer underneath, hinting and promising at what is to come.. A left door with a magical glow, a northwest door with torchlight, a northeastern door with NO light, and a door on your right marked >Employees only<You also see a crate slightly cracked open, begging for someone to loot it.There is a sudden whump of magic and a highly disgruntled elf wizard is thrown through a one way gate by gauntleted hands!You hear a door being crashed open in the room behind you.. your time is limited.1. Robes. disguise etc.2. Closet.3. Doors. Pick one!4. LOOT THAT CRATE!!5. Other. 6. Help the wizard?
Wiseman with only an AC of 12, several strong guards with gauntleted hands begin to heave you backwards through a some green portal as you say "NO NO NO!" And then you are slammed into a rack of red robes marked with the rune "slave" you see the Red Room. except that you see some sort of cutesy half elf twink dressed in skulls and necromancy robes entering from the stairs. Behind them you hear the thunderous crash of a door!1. Robes. disguise etc.2. Closet.3. Doors. Pick one!4. LOOT THAT CRATE!!5. Other.6. Help the wizard? Or Form a party..
>>6477360>Loot the crateNobilko hopes to find a book there. She can't cast her spells by memory.Also>TwinkDoes Nobiko need to be male? I'm not interested in the story of a femboy and I thought you can pick gender for your character in DnD.
>>6477373>Loot that crate!
Shouldnt assume male like a thug I guess and I'll edit the story to accommodate.Creeeeaaak- Inside is a dusty book with the runes "Silent, Performance, and Turbo". There are also a pair of nice leather boots worth 10gp. However, you and this elven newcomer reach the box at the same time. You and Wiseman must now decide what happens next!Do you fight for the box?Do your hands reach into the box together and accidentally grab the loot at the same time?Or do you have a gentlemanly agreement of some kind?
>>6477863Wiseman can have everything as long as he defends Nobiko at least this time.
Wiseman what do you do?P.s. getting some weird network activity witch 4chan blocks me for posting ALOT
>>6477969If Wiseman is still AFK, Nobiko takes it all. She doesn't equip the boots though.
>>6477863"Why would I defend a necromancer? Summon your own allies and defend yourself, child.">Wiseman waits to see how Nobiko responds. He has yet to determine if helping her is worth his while.
>>6478016Nobiko, sighs. *Do you really need a reason to help a girl chased by the same assholes that trapped you here?*You know what, bro? I'm out.>Nobiko runs to the Dark Room.
>>6478162In that case . . .>Wiseman will grab all books since she booked it.
Haha love it!Remember the rules: (green)Protip: Ask yourself who you trust!(/Green)They say "whatever BRO"You nab the spellbook and can now inscribe the runes into your spellbook using 1 hour per spell level and 50gp per hour. These spells appear to be lvl 1. You put on the boots I assume.Then necromancer for their part books it! That's when a door to the south slams open and you see a scarred faced man wearing robes that are the same as the ones in the red room. He looks to be unarmed, but FURIOUS!He gives you a murderous look and sizes you over, clearly judging whether he can take you on or if you're just an initiate getting on their robes.. lucky for you he hasn't made it into the room yet.1. Attack!2. Parley! (Persuade)3. Spells!4. Something in the room5. Run!!
>>6478312Nobiko tells the man she's an initiate getting on her robes.
Nobilko all he sees from you is a closing door, as you yeet out of that room.<------ you see this/Perception check 1d20+wis . FIRST ROLL NATURAL 20 >CRITICAL SUCCESS< LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOO You roll your eyes at the darkness just like you did at that silly wizard!There's a torch sconce to your left which you could light to see the whole room. However.. it would be ADVANTAGE to stealth to hide in the darkness. You also follow the barely visible path to notice that there's several empty crates in the room to slip into.:Necromancer: There's also a familiar musty-ness to the room.. did someone die running into here?1. Hide. Stealth check with ADVANTAGE. Hiding in crates?2. Call out about being a initiate as intended3. Torch4. Spells, ambush etc5. Run.6. Um loot?DM note: we are essentially going in unofficial turns.
>>64783391. HideOk, Nobiko hides in the crates, she will try to explore once the bad man gets away.
