It was a day like any other within the semi-bustling Hospitality based kingdom of TKIF. Within the royal court/manager's palace the land makers looked over progress. Not a moment later did the doors bust in with a man in a chef outfit came in with a plea.

"Your honors I have come searching far and wide with my crew of workers looking for a new place to apply my skills in BOLD AND DARING ways! You kingdom's unique structure speaks to us and it is mutually fortuitous to cross paths. Even more auspicious is the remnants of a wondrous underground storehouse part of a bigger facility of an ancient kingdom is nearby. If you could clear the monsters out we can retake it and put it to great use."

"Adventure, ho!" so said the king as he held out his blade in a far direction.

Emerging from a mysterious cloud, made entirely from bread-flour, emerged Flask the Ninja Head Chef, clad in the standard attire covered by a pristine apron. Soon after his appearance, the Ninja sneakily retrieved his pig that was eating from a nearby trash-can. The ninja glanced at the King as he held out his blade in a random direction.

"Sire." He grabbed a hold of his pig with both of his hands, "Before we all head off, I should perform a quick scouting of where this adventure will take us."

"YOU CALL THIS A WALDORF SALAD YOU WORTHLESS TWAT?! IT'S GOT SO MUCH FUCKING MAYONNAISE THE KING PURE SELECT WANTS TO MAKE IT HIS QUEEN!"

With a clatter, the sous chef- one Chupacabra Capadora- threw the bowl of lackluster salad against the wall.

"YOU'RE LUCKY WE'VE GOT A QUEST, OR SO HELP ME I'D FEED YOU TO THE HEAD CHEF'S PIG! NOW TRY AGAIN, AND DON'T FUCK IT UP. fucking wanker, always dropping the ball on the simplest recipes... I'm going for a walk to try and forget that Holocaust against flavor."

Let's go with a lifestyle wandering.

Looks like we'll need to find some wood.

With another mysterious cloud of flour, the Head Chef Ninja disappeared from the room with his pig in his hand, and a lanky pastry chef that was on his smoke break. With a quick sprint, and a loud oink from his pig companion he headed off to begin the search of the territory they would soon be venturing into.

Flask would scout out this territory.

_________________________________________________________________________________________

After a successful expedition of the territory, Flask returned back with his pig, the pastry chef who assisted him and an ornate scroll. Flask glanced towards the pastry chef and gave a single nod. The Head Chef quickly did the ninja pose of holding out his right middle and index finger, while gripping his left fist.



"I have finished my investigation of the territory." Flask calmly stated, as his pig gave a loud satisfied oink. "The land we are venturing to is controlled by the Ogrekin Champ known as Spoosh. In total there are seventeen monsters and seven traps that we will need to deal with. I have determined that two of these traps are respectively a Lock and a False Corridor."

Flask removed his right hand from the left fist, and began to pet his pig. "With this information..." The Ninja began leaning on his pig, as he kept a dramatic pause. "Accomplishing the mission will be a simple task."

"Very well then" King Scone Hiran nodded as he held his sword over his shoulder. "As king, I could allow either of you men to walk in for me. As a leader, however, I feel it best that I lead from the front" he explained. The king casually strolled in front of the party into the direction of the dungeon.

Lifestyle Wandering


The king noticed several facilities in disrepair. Being inside the castle, there was no way he could have known. Seeing this noble truth, the king planned in his mind a plot to repair the buildings.

You arrive into the dungeon. The place was quite literally around the back. The cheerful warmth of the sun fades away as you descend the earthen steps and bust open the door which had a crudely written sign telling intruders to go away. The air is cool and earthy with a hint of dankness. The lighting is fairly poor as the lighting has been shorted out and only a bit of torches have been placed.

Right well, it didn't appear there were any nasty sorts of creatures. Flask poked his pig, who let out an annoyed oink. "The creatures are not here, so you know what that means." He stated to the pig, who just stared mindlessly at the crudely written sign. Well, to be fair it had a tad better penmanship than the map. But the map still held the most importance, as according to it, there were traps to be found. And the Ninja Chef knew he had to dispose of them for the safety of his companions.

And so, Flask poked his pig once more. Receiving the message, the pig laid its snout against the ground as it began sniffing out. Flask would not let the precious intelligence he had gathered go to waste. Now hopefully would be the simple procedure of securing the location of the traps and getting rid of them in a safe and efficient manner.

You find a semi-busted up vending machine with "NinPop" emblazoned on it. While everything seems to be working it looks like they haven't bothered touching it in a while. Despite the risk of the consumables being expired everyone feels a compulsion to get as many as possible. Also your keen eyes spot a treasure chest which has a suspicious wire rigged to the lid. If you could successfully disarm it you could see whats inside.

[Everyone roll wits, receive free soda if you beat the difficulty of 9. Roll quest with a difficulty of 9 to see if you disarm the chest]

The king walked up to the vending machine, scanning it for a second as he stroked his beard. "Hmm..." he wondered. The king then unsheathed his sword. He reared his sword, then struck the broken machine with his pommel.

Something these trapped chests always overlook: it's not the opening of the lid that sets it off, it's the snapping of the string. The simplest way is just to untie the trap.

"It as my ancestors told me..." Flask mused before entering a dramatic pause. "...Foreigners are unable to even do the simplest of traps." Flask clapped his hands, as a twinkle glimmered in his right eye. From out of nowhere, several mint leaves began blowing around him. And with a feat of acrobatics the Ninja Chef did a flip in the air for no reason, except for having a dramatic scene where he was followed by a strange pattern of lines. "Foolish chest! Behold just a mere glimmer of the teachings of my ancestors!"

With a quick flourish of his right hand, the Ninja Chef pulled out a blender blade as he began to slash away at the scenery mint leaves. And more importantly, deactivate the trap in a flashy manner. Namely untie the string while using the sharp edges of the blender blade. Why? Because Flask felt it would be cool and demonstrate skills needed in the kitchen.

Or something like that. What mattered was that the trap had to be disarmed. And Flask would make sure that chest was to be disarmed in a cool fashion. Well, hopefully he got to it before his Sous Chef companion.

Finishing up his mission he simply slowly lifted up the chest to gaze at what was inside.

After such a magnificent display, Flask quickly ran towards the vending machine. "Now this, the secret to this machine is quite clear." His pig tromped along towards him while chewing on a half-eaten newspaper. Flask quickly scratched at his pig companion's back as he moved towards the others and simply pressed a button for some Ninpop.

@Professor_Wyvern Crit success gain 2 drive.
@ Everyone choose how many pots you get, also the chest contains information

Possible actions: Enter camp phase or push ahead into another room

The king sheathed his blade and egged the party onward. "Rest is for the weak" he announced. "We push onward." The king continued opening the door to the east.

You enter the next room which has an underground pool. However the ground next to the pool is quite unstable and gravelly and it collapses. So you all fall and take 1d6 damage as the water isn't terribly deep and there's some hard and sharp rocks in the water. While flailing about in the water you see a many Goldfish floating behind you and cowering as a three feline monsters appear with a predatory grin. The goldfish look at you pleadingly asking for help.

The king falls with a loud thud. "GAH MY BACK!" he exclaims. Getting up, the king scans his surroundings.

Landmakers go first.

There are three pickcats in the enemy frontline. Kill them before they get to your fishes.

Flask did not go down well. He fell into the lake, as his pig fell on-top of him, causing a bit of a crunch sound-effect. Gurgling in the lake, Flask pushed his pig companion off as he glanced around. "Sire." Flask spoke up as he glanced around the area, "Hold on lemme get out the map, aaand if we are where I think we are, we will have some of Spoosh's forces to go up against."

Anyone can go first

Feel free to pop in battle

With a hefty swing, Chupacabra was all set to take out one of the cats... but sadly missed the mark.
