Welcome to Mafia #70: Dungeons & Dragons!

Rules for this game have been posted here.

Waking slowly, you find yourself alone on the floor of a small, unfamiliar room. Stone walls encircle you completely, with apparently no exit to speak of. A thin mist lingers at the edge of your vision, and the air is thick and humid.

As your surroundings appear to have changed since you closed your eyes, you attempt to get to your feet and begin poking around your prison in the abnormal way that only adventurers do. Your body protests even these simple activities, however; your everything hurts, and you feel more exhausted now than you did the night before.

Can you hear me? The voice resonates just behind your ears. You draw your weapon and turn to face it. Nothing.

Good. You will be needing that. It's become apparent that this thing is speaking to you magically; you adapt to this quickly because you never meet any normal people. It seems intent on being dramatic, so you wait for it to continue and examine your cell further. There isn't much to speak of.

It is time for you to be leaving. Turn around.

You do as you're told, partly because there isn't anything else readily available to do, and to your surprise you find an opening in the wall where there sure as hell wasn't one before. You waste no time at all in leaving, stepping out into the hallway, around the corner and following the narrow passage in the one direction it allows you to. The mist at your feet stirs and flits away as you approach. Before long, the hallway widens and opens into what feels like a much larger space, the walls turning sharply to your left and right and disappearing into the mist. Ahead of you, the flat stone floor does the same.

Go on. Your way out is straight ahead. You're not used to taking orders from disembodied voices, but you find yourself compelled to do as it says. Continuing onward, you expect the mist to swallow you whole, and are surprised to discover it easier to make out vague, shadowy shapes in the distance. As best you can tell, you're in some form of large amphitheater.

You are also no longer alone. You begin to see and hear the tell-tale signs of others: faint figures in the mist, the tap of boots, the jingle of armor, the awkward silence of knowing that someone is there but not actually being able to hear them. Experience has taught you to pick up on these clues and isolate them, but the best that you can do at the moment is note that they are many. This is confirmed when they step out of the mist and into view.

You stop, and so do they, the lot of you standing in a circle and awkwardly facing each other. Attempting to look each of them over one by one, you find it difficult to catalog what you see. It's easy enough to look at one and note what jumps out at you, and even to note differences from one person to the next: their weapons, armor and the like. Beyond that, details are fleeting, overtaken by the mist as you shift your focus to the next person in line.

It is then that you notice the body in the middle of the circle, its robes torn and limbs battered and bloody.

I had hoped this could be avoided. The voice shimmers a bit and quickens as it cuts into your thoughts.

Heed me. Beyond this, I cannot aid you:

One brought you here. More would keep you here. Most would leave you here. All are dangerous.

Be wary. Trust no one.

First! Hello

[Val the Moofia Boss]

Reporting in!

[Senna1251]

Of course, you must start your adventures as a prisoner, that's what Elder Scrolls taught me. Now, onto the competition with my fellow captives!

[Deleted]

Thought I might get to be first

[Razamith]

*studies the figures emerging from the mist*

26 eh? I knew there would be a time i actually needed this d30 i bought forever ago. Now to dig through this unnecessarily enormous bag of dice for it...

[Arlee]

I'm here! But I am going to bed, Good Night!

[Monkz]

Checking in.

With that I'm off to bed.

[listo95]

I am here and I had no idea what anything of that rolling stuff had to do in the signup thread!

[Allowyn]

Now I'm curious to see how someone could have been murdered before the day even started. Let alone who it was and what their rolecard says.

You can just ignore it. It is almost without a doubt a npc just used to push the story along. Danner did the same thing in his previous game. (in that game I murdered the npc who died at the start!)

[Lysah]

I trust no one.

What do I win?

[Senna1251]

/roll to explain to Listo what the rolling stuff has to do with D&D; 5

Senna attempts to explain to Listo what dice rolling has to do with the glorious D&D role-playing world, but all her words come out garbled and confusing. Sighing, Senna gives up and heads to bed.

Good night peeps.

Oh! That's neato. Thanks for telling me that.

[Robozerim]

I trust no one.

What do I win?

The never ending unease and difficulty sleeping that accompanies a suspicious mind.

[Crackleslap]

Just when you though you were safe! I arrive.

RIP thread. We'll be at 20 pages by days end.
