DM: So It is said that the world of Eranduer is a truly interesting place where champions and heroes are made, Glory is Accomplished, and Battle Hunger is treated Like playtime.

However, right now you are all being appointed invitations, to come and visit the Taladorial, a Massive arena much like that of the gladiatorial matches of your ancient cultures, where warriors and mages and monsters determine the ability and skill cap of every participant,

and as you all hand in your invitations, you are each sent to separate doors, and each door your told leads to your spot in the queue.

you all hear cheers and applause and screaming and shouting and victorious fanfares playing as you open your doors, and make your way down the halls.

and then you each reach the gates to the entryway, and are asked to sit in the lobby until you can be serviced, and here is where we will introduce you all to each other.

Please Everyone I would Like each of you to Roll a hmm one two three... Gimme a Six-sided die.

Fighter: 3

Cleric: 6

Bard: 4

Rogue: 96 ^ ^

Everyone stares at the Rogue...

Rogue: What?

Wizard: Really?

Rogue: Yep ^{^}

DM: Don't worry I got this.

I kind of expected something like this so I came up with a backup plan just in case.

DM: Here Roll this one in front of everybody, please.

Rogue: sighs* Fine...

Rogue: 1?

DM: Okay ^{^}

Right then, let's continue.

Oh, and By the way, Rogue, From Now On you have to use the dice I hand to you.

Rogue: Grumbles*

So! next roll?

Wizard: 2?

Dm: Okay ^{^}

and Ranger?

Ranger: I got a five

DM: Perfect! right, let me look down my notes here...

Okay! so that will be our turn order for introductions.

so! let's be the devil's advocate and start with the rogue ^ ^

you got a one, so you go first.

you see a few interesting figures in front of you, an elven warrior clad in chain, and a single sword at her side,

A Somewhat interesting Goblin Archer. clad in strapped leathers and short bow in hand.

a Surprisingly Young Looking mage, with a bit of something poking out of her head, are those ears? or horns?

a somewhat stoutly looking individual a bit shorter in stature but we don't judge here. holding a large ax-like object, certainly ornate, but not of any specific type you have seen before.

and rather a small-looking man who sits impatiently like that of a child on sugar, but certainly much more adult-like by his visuals. he looks incredibly excited to be here, and you notice a small flute in his hand.

who do you wish to approach first?

five to six introductions later.

Right, so you all notice as two very scantily clad women approach each of you,

two per person and each one quietly smiles at you and says okay it's your turn now come with us please ^ ^

and as each of you is guided away, you are each led down a hallway toward the middle of the theater. completely Masculated by these women, and as you reach your doors, they FLING OPEN and You Hear LOUD CHEERING and FAN FARE trumpets Triumphantly announcing your presence!!!

Fighter: OH HELL YEAH!!!

Rogue: O.O

Wizard: Oh no...

Ranger: Blinks Confusingly.

Cleric: Raises their eyebrow.

Bard: Whistles.

and then the Women Shove ALL of you Into the Door and wave at you as the Door Closes. Smiling expectantly.

and as you all get back on your feet. you begin to take in all the noise and all the hearing, and notice that wait, this isn't the stands...

THIS IS THE PIT!!!

and You have all been Pitted against Eachother!!!

and Out of the Other Gates, you see another Bunch of Adventurers THrown Into the Arena...

and that's when it hits each of you. as the floor RUMBLES And A MASSIVE MAZE RUSHES OUT OF THE SANDS BELOW YOUR FEET AND LEAVE EACH OF YOU AT THE VERY OUTER EDGE>...

and then the ANOUCNER SHOUTS LOUDLY
