Hello and welcome to the RP. Below you'll find various posts each containing different bits of the RP, for example the Class and Race lists, the Dice mechanics etc. as well as a General/Q&A post and an example post. Yes this is filler to hold it all together, no I don't care if this isn't how things are normally done.
So once again welcome to the RP. Be inquisitive, be proper and have a plan to kill everyone you meet.

"Alright my friends, I believe that we should finish stocking up and proceed to the next room," He points to the map, specifically Room 7. "I say we proceed to this room, beelining towards the room with the river of acid." He let his finger linger on the map, allowing his Eldritch Presence to store a copy into it's incomprehensible memory.
Bellas, having left the treasure room, nodded along, working on enchanting the new bow.

"No. Splitting up is the worst thing we could do," she said. "We are splitting our combined resources over multiple parties. This can only lead to trouble. From what I've heard we've been okay so far, but one botched cast or lapse in judgement could seriously cripple us." She took a breath. "We should stock up now and keep moving, raiding the rooms we do come across. We can clear the rest of the dungeon after we finish off the dragon."

He glanced at everybody else in the room, then said, "I believe we are capable of handling any particular room on our own, even if there were only three of our number. Furthermore, this dungeon appears to have been established as something between a test and a training regimen. By setting obstacles in our path, I believe the dragon intends for us to become strong enough to challenge him."

She started picking through it, trying to find something good. Davug shook off his stupor and reddened a little. He had very much not intended to just stand there and stare, and hurriedly walked over to the weapons rack to try and find another one-handed weapon to go with his mace. Virro, meanwhile, decided that the amulet should do well enough while Centorea and Davug looked for other equipment, and so decided to investigate the map.

It proceeded to join the adventurers in searching the next room, weighing its longsword in its hand as it did so.
The welcome mat it found suspicious, for some reason, and it made to examine it, looking for pressure switches and signs of traps.
It didn't expect to find any, considering the dragon remained here in order to be challenged, and so would want the adventurers to make it to the armory unharmed, but still. It didn't hurt to check.

He approached the Kobold. "You are a Merchant, yes?" he inquired. "I believe I have something I would be willing to trade with you." He took out his bow and showed it to Blearm.

There had been something suspicious about the painting. Xiv'riit had thought the painting was suspicious, and hoped Keegra would find it out. Which left it free to upgrade its weaponry before investigating the tunnel.
"Now, before it hands over its weaponry to you," the shardmind said smoothly, "it would like you to answer Keegra's question."
It had hoped to investigate the painting for signs of recent usage before it was destroyed, but for now, questioning was the more direct line. That said, it moved over to peer at the frame, as casually as it could.

It seemed obvious to it that these were a group of adventurers who'd decided to situate themselves inside this Last Bastion, Watching Over the rest of the cave network as best they could.

He commanded Shaban to go stand in the room the party had started in and scream if he was being brutally murdered. Again. And fight back, of course.

He stepped into the room, and said, "We are indeed, but if straits are this dire, perhaps we could make a detour in and aid you in escaping from this place." Davug followed and stood behind him, but was ready to thrust him out of danger and defend him if he was given any reason to.

"Don't try to hide what you are Necromancer." He makes the word sound like an insult,probably because he is using it as one. "If we could have escaped we would have, but whatever magic Paarnax has woven through the Bore Hole prevents us from doing so, much like it now prevents you from escaping or creating new tunnels and caves. Even if it didn't we wouldn't need your pansy assistance Elf." Again Elf sounds like an insult. Rudig looked at Keegra, "Now is there anything in particular you want? You should not worry about the numbers we faced, we do not think Paarnax has those kinds of numbers anymore. "

New Mechanic! by

Blearm is a Kobold Trader. With his ultra-special hyperspace market-stall he can travel anywhere and still access his stall, allowing you to trade items with him if you want to. However, this mechanic is only in play whilst Blearm is alive and not enthralled, and undeath will not bring it back. Also to trade with Blearm you must specify what you want, and give him something of the same type in exchange (If you want a weapon you must give him a weapon, if you want a piece of armour you must give him some armour, or if you want an Other, you must give him an Other that is an item) The more powerful the thing you give him the more likely the thing you get in return will be more powerful (ie if you gave him a Sword +1 the likelihood you'll get a sword +5 back would be, say 1/10th, but if you gave him a Sword +3 the likelihood you'll get a sword +5 would be 2/10ths for example.) This has been put on Discord, but is here for permanence.

It looked at Virro, scathing words on its tongue, but it seemed Keegra had rendered anything it had to say redundant, and so turned to the less-than-successful orc.
"Very well fought," it said drily, raising the equivalent of one eyebrow at the orc. "We shall be sure to call upon you whenever we are faced with the mortal peril of intact weaponry." However, as unimpressed as the shardmind was, it was also aware that they might need everyone they could get at some point in the dungeon, and so it begrudgingly healed the orc's injuries.

The Orc shakes his head in reply, then says, "Heal quickly. Will be gone soon." He picks up the Mace lying on the floor. At least the Combat Bonus is the same as the one he received from his sword. He decides he'll keep whatever shards he can salvage, both for their sentimental value and because random shards of metal might come in handy some time. This is a dungeon, after all. Things like that happen all the time. After doing this, he goes to petition Xiv'riit for his help. Meanwhile, Virro has taken the Necromancer's Robe from Shaban, then starts talking (rather loudly) through the door, hoping there's still somebody on the other side to hear him. Should there be anybody in the next room, he attempts to persuade them that the are not, in fact, enemies, and that, if they would be so kind as to step away from the door, he will open it so that both parties can get a good look at each other.

"I knew it," it muttered, bringing its hands together and circling his palms slowly, healing magic sparking and flashing between them. Bright, blue light danced in complex arcs that should've seared with heat, but regenerated flesh before it had even sealed by folding the process forward through time so as to be instantaneous to an outside viewer.
""I will strike upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy My brothers.

Uriel turns to face the Zombie Lord, then contemplates his bladed hand, then shifts his gaze to Virro. He then lowers to a Meditative position, imagining his Eldritch Presence. It's a mess of tendrils, snaking throughout the room, growing heavier around his party's magic users. He sees tendrils that once connected Virro to the Zombie Lord, seeing that some may still be connected.
He focuses his will on the tendrils originating from Virro, attempting to will them to reconnect to the tendrils emerging from the Zombies Lord, in an attempt to restore and strength Virro's command over it. He's also prepared to stop the manipulation should anything unexpected happen (ie, The Zombie gaining control over him).

He may or may not be cursing the random die roll that forced him to stand by while the zombie charged by him, even though he was attempting to keep watch. Meanwhile, Virro, who was most certainly not cowering, backs away from the Zombie Lord and begins firing arrows at the creature. "I see this is what you meant. I suppose this new, more powerful version of undead requires more finesse to control," he mutters. He uses his magic to probe the Zombie Lord and see if there are any special techniques he can find while that will give him an edge if he ever finds another of these things. He also makes a note to thank Keegra for interfering on his behalf after he gets rid of this monster. Meanwhile, Shaban does nothing, because he is not about to risk his master's new loot.

"I suppose I should get ready." Virro nocks an arrow in his bow and leaves it ready to either raise and fire at any hostile intruders. If they're not hostile, he'll attempt to persuade, but not to Enthrall, them that they have no reason to attack instead. "Hm. I suppose all of us standing here would be rather inconvenient." He nodded to Shaban, who shuffled away into the first room to look for more equipment, particularly Clothing that conferred an armor bonus. "Now, what was that about my new zombie being different, Xiv'riit?" As he said this, he moved the Zombie Lord in front of the door to help guard it. Davug eyed it suspiciously- he'd learned that sometimes it was hard to tell when certain members of the team were handing over information normally protected by the fourth wall- and decided it was worth more of his attention than the door, so he decided to focus on keeping the new zombie from hurting anybody who wasn't an enemy.

He nodded at her in acknowledgement of her skill, but otherwise simply waited, weapons drawn. Shaban just did nothing.

She didn't have much time, and she knew it - the other adventurers were probably on their way, and soon they'd get all the best things they could find. She was ready to defend her new greatsword, but at the same time she needed backup, given how recently she'd arrived.

Two rounds, in fact. She was nervous. Her daggers had done little to halt the Orc's charge. However, she wasn't done yet; a kill would certainly improve her standing in Keegra's eyes. So she prepared. She noticed Keegra bracing against the door and took up a position on the hinge side, as if the door did burst open she would be hidden from the other Orc's view. A knife or two in the neck would probably be helpful for the group's goals.
And it wasn't just an excuse to look at the way Keegra's shoulder muscles moved as she held the door shut. Why would you even think that?

"I shall try to act more quickly next time, Uriel," he says to the green Shardmind. "I am afraid circumstances conspired to prevent my actions from taking place when they should have.

"Though that might just be the One and Two inscribed on the blades. A shame there wasn't another. Now I just need some equipment - my own weapon oils will only stretch so far, for one."
Evard padded off, oddly silent on the stone floor save for the occasional schlup as her suckers kept her upright. Her plan was to search through the rest of the racks and find some armour made for tako, or at least something a bit nicer than her rather dowdy travelling clothes.

"The map appears to be correct, my fellow adventurers," she announces to the room. "I can hear voices behind one of the doors marked on the map, but I cannot say which, or what the voices may be saying." She considered the room they were in, and decided that her sling alone would not be enough; she wanted a bit of armor.
