Adventuring!, Thursday, Period 3

[geniuswithasmartphone]

For the last class, like the first, the Danger Shop was set up to look like Ye Old-Timey Fantasy Tavern, because Hardison did love him some tropes, and 'getting an adventure hook in a tavern' was one of the oldest.

"I'm looking for some adventurers!" an old man announced a few minutes after class began. "A small band of the most brave and stalwart! Monsters have moved into the cave system nearby the village and are terrorizing our outlying farms! There's gold and treasure in it for anyone who can make our town safe again!"

Once the old man sat back down, Hardison stood up. "That's your final, class," he said. "You can work alone, though it might be easier to go in a group or somethin'. Head to the caves, defeat some monsters, an' enjoy the sweet reward of treasure." And a good grade, but whatever. "So figure out what class you wanna be from the ones we went over this session, decide who you're gonna team up with, if anyone, an' enjoy your taste of fantasy adventure!"

The Caves

[geniuswithasmartphone]

Once you get past the bear, you continue on until you see the cave the old man spoke of. From the outside, the cave looks rather small and unassuming, but within, you can see it's part of much bigger subterranean system. No natural light comes in, but there are some remains of old torches and the like if you don't have a way of producing light on your own.

Heading further in and down, you can hear the noises made by something living. The monsters seem to have made their home in a cavern by a small underground lake. Towards the back of their cavern, you can see two large treasure chests with heavy padlocks on the front.

The number of monsters you see depend on the number of people with you. Someone by themselves will only see one monster, a larger group may see several.

Sure, there was only one monster, but it was big and ugly. Thankfully, Kira had done a little studying, and if she was going to have a spell on hand thanks to her deity, it was totally going to be Thunderous Strike. Hopefully the sound of thunder wouldn't freak anyone else out.
