The Adventure begins...
Mar. 8th, 2003 03:04 pmSo, Tiaryn, her cousin Kiara, Elayne, Wendy, and Krystal all grew up in a small trading post, and they're friends. Tiaryn's father asked them to do him a favour - to escort some snooty fellow to the mainland, and silly folks that they are, they agreed, cause they thought 10 gold pieces each for the spring festival sounded wonderful.
Hah! Well, they're on the mainland - there's a dead boar (one eyed - divinely inspired ... or should that be cursed? Possessed, anyway), 3 dead members of the Order of the Sun (not killed by our party, though one was killed by the boar!) and 2 dead bandits, or something.
Whee. So went the introduction. The relationships that are building are a lot of fun. Tiaryn and Kiara are quite definitely trouble. I love the fact that there's already some past history building. Like the traditional Friday evening dinners at Tiaryn's house, with her parents. And Elayne magic missiled the stew pot one time. And then there was something about a fire that wasn't Kiara's fault. *grins*
Oh yeah, and the guy they were supposed to escort to the inn on the mainland, he got nicknamed Mr. Useless quite quickly. By Tiaryn, I think, but it stuck. Especially when he took off in the boat, cause there were scary sounds from the shore, leaving our intrepid quintet stranded on the mainland. 4 out of the 5 ended up sea sick on the boat trip over to the mainland. (Nasty DM!) (Okay, poor dice rolls had something to do with it too, but still ... )
And in any event much fun was had by all. Well, except maybe the poor DM who has to run adventures for 5 women. Poor man. ;)
