BenKii: Thanks for finding me doc. :)

Now for a little character bio for myself. *clear throat*

[i]Captain's log stardate 73189.9
I've been mysteriously transported to this strange circular chamber with a large group of people that resemble characters from the late 20th century board game "Dungeons and Dragons". I myself have had my uniform replaced with the attire of a warrior class from same game. This may be some kind of fantasy devised by an extra dimensional being as their way of having "fun" with other humanoid lifeforms. For now, I'll adhere to the Prime Directive with the other people trapped here and "roleplay" as this human warrior. Hopefully, I can work together with the others here to figure out how to escape this dungeon without meeting any dragons.[/i]

Ahem, greetings fellow adventurers. I'm BenKii, a human warrior. Would anyone like to join me down this west tunnel to try and find a way out? I have lots of health and armor but am lacking the skills of a rogue and the spells of a mage but will gladly accept help from other fellow warriors.

ConsulCaesar: I, Siegfried the Human Paladin, draw my longsword and point it towards the darkness, determined to find if there is an exit to the dungeon in the West tunnel. I reach my hand to the nearest torch to see if there is a way to pick it up and light the way. I will scratch it with my own sword if that's necessary. I concentrate to focus my mind off the metal grate, too far from my reach to do anything right now, and I prick up my ears for signs of Undead presence in the hidden shades of the tunnel.

I turn my sight to the rest of heroes around me, inviting them to join me in the search and vowing to protect their lives and cure their ailments as long as I am breathing.

Trid: So what I, Tridris (female Drow, Necromancer), am doing here, guess my little sister finally got me, I knew her thirst for power someday cause me a problem but it came sooner than I expected... Well, never mind *looking around*, what's with all this things around me, they seems as confused as I'm... well... some of them may be useful. Seems that some alliances already forming, maybe I should join one of them?

Trying to not sound too arrogant I'm saying to people around me: Well "friends", seems like we got here a little trouble for ourselves, I don't think anyone for us can survive on its own, as much as I hate it, we have better chance of surviving if we join our forces. What do you think?

Catac1ysm: Dwarf Berserker Catac1ysm goes to the North to find way out.

Ho there, BenKii. I am Roosevelt, knight champion defender of the chivalrous order of the Lion. I'll gladly lend my skills combating evil to your cause. These western tunnels seem as likely as any to venture into. The tunnels to the North and South look like they may have murder runs or trap runs along them. I'll stick with you and your group for now, if you'll have me.

Aramandur: You don't have to go alone, my little, bearded friend. Come join us!

Doc0075: A good suggestion by Tridris.
It may be an idea that whenever you post you also mention your character name/ race and class.
This would make it easier for people to know who is who.

direspirefirewire: I'm seriously lost. Is there a spreadsheet or document where we can post our actions given there are 5 rooms and 60 or so characters chatting in a single thread?

BeatriceElysia: There's also big chains on the ceiling.

park_84: Ok, this is embarrassing...
"Person of short stature here, I want to pull one of those chains but can't reach it, anyone willing to help?"

Darrim, the dwarf warrior

FlockeSchnee: I have another question. I just moved from near the metal grate to near the West Tunnel to join the forming group there. Does that mean, I can't move with those already at the West Tunnel into the Tunnel, that I will always be one step behind? Or how does moving work?
