Death's Rise (Plot A)

Death: Welcome, hero... welcome... to hell on earth. I see that you are sleeping... I don't blame you. All the other heros are asleep as well... in their final resting places. It seems that you are the only one left... Unfortunately, your time is also drawing nigh, and soon... your soul shall be mine...

The time of heroes has come to an end... This world... is mine to reap...

So... if you wish to see what all remains of the world... I suggest you wake up...

(1 man plot.)

I'll choose Karasz on this one.

Karasz wakes up in a small prison. The pungent stench of mildew can be smelled eminnating from the prison walls. If Karasz looks down at himself, he can notice he has been stripped of his weapons and armor and is now in nothing but rag clothing. There is what sounds like a struggle down in the hall ways past the barred door of Karasz's prison.

Tip: You can inspect different spots in a room and possibly find some loose change or an item on the ground. Walk up to the barred door and inspect it to see who is out in the hall way.

No dice required except in battle?

Karasz inspects the barred door.

Correct, or if you're in the wild, which I will explain later.

Karasz can see three reapers struggling with what appears to be a large werewolf down the hall way.

Reaper 1: Damn! I hate these buggers!

Reaper 2: Quick! Throw it in the prison with that one dying guy!

Reaper 3: *Walks up to barred door.* You, civillian, back away from the door!

Karasz: I should've asked them where am I...

The reaper unlocks the barred door and opens it for the werewolf. The other two reapers manage to push the werewolf inside and lock the door behind it.

Werewolf: I'LL GET YOU ALL FOR THIS!!! AFTER WHAT YOU HAVE DONE TO-

The werewolf stops and sniffs the air. It turns it's attention to Karasz.

Werewolf: Oh, uh, sorry about the commotion... Wait... IS THAT YOU KARASZ!?

Karasz: Do I know you from somewhere??

Werewolf Joshua: It's me! Joshua!

Werewolf Joshua bounds over to Karasz and gives him a bear... err, wolf hug.

Werewolf Joshua: I can't believe that you are still alive!

Karasz: >_O I'm.. Happy to see you again Joshua!! Ok, you're squeezing me too tight!! But why did they lock you up for?!

Werewolf Joshua: *Puts Karasz down.* They threw me in here because I tried to infiltrate the Reaper's Sanctuary and rescue Nathaniel.

Karasz: Your brother is in trouble, huh? But how are we going to get out of here?

Werewolf Joshua: Let me see...

Werewolf Joshua walks over to the barred door and notices the spikes along the metal.

Werewolf Joshua: Well, I don't think I can bust the door down... There has to be some other way out. Try looking around the room.

Karasz inspects the floor

Green mold can be seen growing in the corner.

Karasz checks out the green mold.

Karasz: I wonder..... No, I doubt that something is in that mold. Maybe a key or something.

There is nothing in the green mold.

Karasz inspects this wall.

Chained to the wall is a skeleton of the previous prisoner.

Karasz: That ain't right..

Karasz: Maybe this wall?

Near the top of the wall is a small grate that shows a view of the forest floor.

Werewolf Joshua: I don't think we'll be able to get out that way.

Karasz: Then I suppose the center of the floor will take us out of here.

The stone tile underneath Karasz's feet makes a hollow sound each time he steps on it.

Werewolf Joshua: Move.
