Interest Check: http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/82987-fantasy-cave-exploration-pc-death-expected/ooc

This role play is open to anyone that would like to join. The story begins in a fictional village with a roughly medieval feel and a cave entrance has recently been revealed when the river washed out a piece of the bank during the spring rains. Is there hidden treasure to be found? Or only danger and trouble?

The Rules

  • Have fun and help the others participating in the RP have fun too!
  • Create 2-3 characters that will be venturing into the cave. During play, all but 1 must die!
  • Character sheets are NOT required. If you want to start playing, simply read the story thus far and describe the basics of your characters in your post. Not every detail of your PCs needs to be worked out up front.
  • Feel free to contribute details to the world. If you want to, for example, add a long-forgotten, ramshackle hut in the middle of the woods, go for it!

Sounds great to me! I really like this idea, particularly the idea that these are just regular villagers doing this kinda thing. Bring out your Butchers, Bakers and Candlestick makers! Tavern Wenches and Stableboys! Who will be brave enough to dare travers this mysterious cave and see what lies below the surface!

Speaking of, I think i'll be playing a Tavern Wench- she's actually a character i've made before in DnD!
And I'll also be playing umm... a blacksmith? or a stonemason, and maybe a Farmer boy.

Lol my guy is considered rude. Maybe hes trying to be realistic and prevent the old guy from a horrible tragic death?!?!? Or maybe its a plot so theres more gold for him? Or.... OOORRR, maybe he was just upset at the loud old man disturbing his reading? Lol

No one said Jasmine was a mind reader (or even socially adept) :P

Well maybe she will find some special enchanted goblet that allows you to read minds in that cave we are all venturing too :)

Which brings up the question: is there magic? Is magic the norm in this world or a figment of imagination derived from overexaggerated stories?

Well since i see people making multiple characters, i hope you dont mind if i throw another in the mix:



Name: Jack Whittle
Age: 31
Occupation: Traveling bard and storyteller

Summary: The locals only really know him as "That damn bard that never shuts up." when hes not strumming his lute and watching his tavern mates grit in pain as they cover their ears, hes usually trying to woo the barmaids with stories of his adventures when he was but a young lil lass. There usually so outlandish and over exhaggerated that people take what he says with a grain of salt.

Multiple characters is kinda the rule @The Roman07 just be warned only one of your characters will survive this adventure into the cave!

@Eklispe, looks good! An idea to run past you, but definitely feel free to say 'no' if you don't like the idea. I was trying to figure out who my second PC might be. How would you feel about the Smith brothers having a younger sister that goes along too? Maybe 17 or 18?

Sweet. Here's a little blurb of what I've got in mind. Feel to free to make your intro post and I'll follow your lead. :)

Jane Smith
Age 18
She was to be married this summer, but the engagement was recently broken when Jane discovered her betrothed had been unfaithful. The cowardly, boil-brained lout! Looking for something to distract her, Jane is sure to jump on the chance to go explore the cave with her older brothers.
