A text based adventure game, hosted by me. Post to join the adventuring party. Once you post, I will let you select your starting items, and once everyone is ready, the adventure begins.
You will perform actions by typing "-" then the action. I will then tell you the result of your actions, and roll dice if necessary. Be advised that you cannot take back your actions once you perform them, and that success or even advancement past the first room is not guaranteed to your party. You will need to play smart, and work together if you wish to succeed in this adventure.
P.S. don't sign up if you aren't willing to put a good amount of effort in, last time I did this people took it pretty seriously.
You stand before an impressive moat with the rest of your adventuring party, the murky water not far below. Across it, an enormous gothic castle with decaying stone walls, several tall spires twisting upwards. The air is thick and damp. You can hear faint sounds of people gossiping in the air, though there is no one in sight save for your silent party. A moldy, yet thick wooden bridge invites your entry to the castle.
What you and your comrades seek is the library room of the castle, which contains the mythic everybin document. It is said that every player on the site's most foul deeds are recorded there. You have all done things you're not proud of, things you'd rather were forgotten. The document must be destroyed so that you can finally fulfill your lifelong dream of becoming an epicmafia moderator. And so an alliance of players was formed to brave the dangers of....
i doubt tucker isn't gonna be doing much until everyone gets in here, so i guess ill examine them all.
-if the scroll doesn't contain a tome/spell or useful information that isn't just lore, don't read it and put it away (basically trying to give you legroom to not spam a bunch of chatlogs, as humorous as they are)

-attempt to duck out of the way of the zombies charging me from both sides towards the centre of the bridge
You duck toward the center of the bridge as both zombies close in on you.
You collide with the zombie chasing Pamda as you do so.
The zombie falls on to you and you roll a d12 for initiative against the zombie you just unintentionally tackled. You need a 5 or higher to get the first action.
You roll a 3. Zombie takes 3 damage as the force of the whip creates a sizable gash on its chest. Unfortunately, skin and chest muscle isn't terribly important to a zombie, nor do they really care about pain. The force of the whip impedes the zombie's charge briefly, but does not stop it.
-get up from the ground and walk over to the bookshelf with scrolls and writing, examining it further
Oh sorry I missed this action.
Bookshelves line every wall of the castle that you can see. You move over to the closest wall. The shelves are old and wooden, there's a lot of dust on it, and on the assorted books and scrolls that are stuffed there in an almost disorganized manner.
Books, scrolls of all shapes sizes and colors, single papers, files, all crammed into every inch of the shelving. There is no visible marking system on the shelves, nor can you see any ladders or way of easily reaching the shelves that stretch up to the high ceiling.
