Darvic
« on: May 03, 2016, 07:06:45 pm »
Mana fades...
The light has left this land, this blighted land.
Darvic.
Once there were mighty kings here, Lords of Mana and Sword, subjugating all that lay before them.
Now, only twisted reflections remain.
You have traveled to this Land, perhaps seeking adventure, perhaps seeking a glorious death, perhaps seeking power.
You have arrived at the Border Keep, Metmora. Before you sits a sword in the snow before the keep, and the corpse of a traveler who failed to make it.

As you approach the sword,you hear a range of questions, booming forth from no source in particular.
---Sheet---
State your name:
For what purpose have you traveled to Darvic:
What land do you hail from:
What do you carry:
What do you look like:
What have you done before this:
---End---
After you answer the questions, the sword beams forth several beams brilliant blue light, enveloping you.
You awaken in a dark cell, with several other travellers.
---End IC---
Alrighty, so i am starting a new play by post, if you cant tell, very dark souls inspired in terms of tone and themes, if not challenge. All actions will be determined based on a Die Roll between 1-10,  based on Stats. Woo, Stats.
you have 30 points between  7 stats
Vim:How difficult you are to harm
Vigour:How long you can keep going
Agility:How hard you are to hit
Strength:How strong you are
Skill:How skilled you are at weapon usage
Mana:How well you can channel  mana
Luck:How lucky you are
Hopefully this one wont die, lets try and have fun.
Thanks Peri for making me question muh sexualities once again.

What do you carry: A rifled flintlock pistol, a dagger, gunpowder, a set of gun cleaning gear, and minie balls.

He's dressed in a reinforced overcoat with a brown fur lining, that may dull stabs, a pair of plain pants, a pair of leather boots, leather gloves, a small rucksack, a belt with a holster, a gunpowder horn, and a pouch of minie balls, a red scarf that he wears over his face.
What have you done before this: "I'm a highwayman now, I was a highwayman then."

State your name:  "I answer to the name of Letholdus!   Praise be and all that."

What land do you hail from: Why, I hail from the only civilized reigion around, Askurg.   Surely you didn't believe me to be a savage?"
What do you carry: Greatsword, Heavy armour, Codex of Onia.
What do you look like: 5'9, brown hair, massive sheath, sweet ass helmet.
What have you done before this: I was, and still am, a Paladin in the Great Army of Onia!    Praise be!

State your name: "Tyrid."
For what purpose have you traveled to Darvic: "My brothers-in-arms all lie dead. Nothing for me back from where I came. Might as well start anew."
What land do you hail from: "Karthus. Born and raised in Nokturnus."
What do you carry: "My armor, pillaged from one of the countryside mausoleums. It's worn, but it works. I also have my blade, of course, and my bearded war axe." Tyrid's armor is ancient iron plate with a helm, incredibly worn and rusty. It's been jury-rigged here and there, tied together with frayed rope in some joints. The helm is round and heavy, with protrusions like the bars of a cell covering his face. He wears a billowing fur cloak, moth eaten and dusty, over this. (Think the Yahar'gul set from Bloodborne.) The sword is long and narrow, double-edged, with a pitted iron blade and a hilt wrapped in old rope. The axe is an ancient item of corroded bronze, with a hook-like, bearded blade and a solid bronze handle.
What do you look like: He responds with a grunt. He's tall, dark, and rangy, with sinewy limbs full of lean muscle. His black hair is cut short, and he has humorless green eyes.
What have you done before this: "I was a brother of the Mortuary Knights for a good few years. It was good work. What you didn't have, you could find, all in those damned crypts covering Karthus. None of our enemies could see us coming. We looked too much like the other blasted relics."

Awesome.
You all come to. The first thing you are aware of is the searing pain of manacles drawn too tight about wrists and ankles. As you gaze about the room, you see that it is a small cell, circular, perhaps 10 feet in diameter. All three of you are chained to the walls next to each other, with a menagerie of skeletal corpses arrayed around you, still wearing decaying clothing and disintegrating armor. An intense smell of mold and rot fills the room. The chains that bind you are exceedingly rusty. You can see your weaponry piled atop a heap of rusted blades at the center of the room.
You can hear a rasping outside of the blackened wood door.

Darwin looks around for a rock, a weathered stone, a loose brick, anything. He needs to get out of these chains. If he finds a rock he attempts to break through the rusted chains with it.

Tyrid's eyelids open slowly, heavily, tenants on a face aged by experience and hardship. He blinks once, twice, turns his helmeted head to one side, then the other, and calmly yawns through the iron bars covering his visage. "Well. Unexpected, to say the least." He mutters. Not to the others chained to the wall with him. Just words for the sake of words. He takes another small glance at the chains on his right wrist, and, bracing his biceps, pulls at them experimentally, hoping the rust and corrosion of age has weakened them.

Letholdus also attempts to get out via just pulling on the chains.

Darwin:
Rolls 1d10 against Luck:2
You quickly note a loose brick in the wall next to you, and it takes minimum effort to slide it out of the wall and
Rolls 1d10 against Strength+3(easy check):6
Smash down on the chain several times, eventually snapping it down the middle.
---
Tyrid:
Rolls 1d10 against strength:2
You pull on the iron manacle, and it shatters down the middle, age threatening the integrity of the iron.
---
Letholdus:
Rolls 1d10 against strength:5
You strain against you chains, and eventually the wall beneath them gives way, a brick flying out, chains still attached.

Darwin swiftly grabs his flintlock pistol, he loads it then aims it toward the door, waiting for what ever is coming.

Tyrid flexes his arms, a little sore after breaking the chains. "Right then. Don't suppose either of you are the talkative type, then. I'd say that's fine with me." He glances at Darwin through his helm, nodding. "This one's got the right idea." He mumbles, reaching down to pick his pockmarked, rusty blade up from the pile, the iron vaguely shining in the dim light, along with his equally corroded little bearded axe. Taking a firm grip on the hilt of his sword, he positions himself on the side of the door, so if/when something opens it up, he'll be in their/its blind spot.
