Dact's Adventure Shop and Quest Board!

[Knight Errant]

Nova smiles and pets the catgirl before hopping out of the tree and onto the ground, letting her go.

"There you go. Don't get stuck again 'kay?"

She nod nods. "Kaaay. Thanks, Nya~" She trots away as a portal opens up, leading back to the Adventure Shop!

Sure. This shouldn't be too stressful I would imagine. A bit of slayage, some puzzles probably, one nagging royal, and lots of fresh air and sunlight along with likely a dungeon or cave.

"All the classics. Unless you have a better idea, I suggest heading for one of those castle towns and hitting up a tavern. We would likely find what information we need soon enough."

Don reached into a ripple that was at his right side with his left hand and pulled out a flash grenade.

"Let take a look see," said Don as he threw the flash grenade into the cave and heard it sink to the bottom.

Dawn saw the caravan and then waved at the guards. She gave them a friendly smile and then said, "Heya there guys."

The grenade goes off, it reveals the opening of what looks like an underwater cave. Oddly... the entrance looks carved into a rough doorway, flanked by statues with rather more tentacles than were comfortable. Apparently the whateveritwas had slipped into this opening... as it wasnt in the cave.

Meanwhile, the nearest guard turns his horse around... trotting up to Dawn. "Hello, miss... might I ask what your doing on the roads? Without a horse, no less... they arent exactly safe." Meanwhile, she gets the nagging feeling she is being watched.

Muurido walked into the building and observed the list of quests for a few minutes before approaching Knight Errant. "I believe I will go with stopping the evil Necromancer. After all he may be planing to take over Muffinville and I can't have him doing that before me."

Dact nods. "Awesome. Was hoping someone would go for that. Good luck... and if you ever try to take over Muffinville, it will be my pleasure to stop you. Heheh." A portal opens next to him.

Nova waves the catgirl off before stepping through the portal, clearly very pleased with herself.

"Hmm...." said Don as he got into the entrance way. He looked around and kept holding on to his weapon. "This wasn't what I was expecting."

"Well I am here to help you guys out. Been on the eye for possible thieves and such," said Dawn with a cute smile and a happy pose. She then gave a wink to the guard and at the same time her face looked a bit serious. "It would seem like our location has been compromise though."

[lategeometry101]

Muurido goes through the portal and looks at her new surroundings.

[Raleigh]

Nah, nothing better comes to mind. I've always loved the fact that taverns are good for that myself. It is the only reason I can be found in one after all seeing as I usually don't drink alcohol and they rarely carry my kind of drinks. I suppose you are the leader of this expedition given the nature of the request on the board so you pick where we go and I'll follow along.

[shinryou]

"Uh... hi I guess?" Kazuya said, puzzled by the strange form with the normal clothing.

[Knight Errant]

Nova waves the catgirl off before stepping through the portal, clearly very pleased with herself.

She appears back at the shop! Dact smiles a bit. "Quest completed... did you want to spend your points or save them up?"

"Hmm...." said Don as he got into the entrance way. He looked around and kept holding on to his weapon. "This wasn't what I was expecting."

Everything seems calm for now. It looks like he will have to go in after the creature... or draw it back out somehow.

The guard has time to hmm and ask. "What are you talking about..?" Before bandits erupt from the woods! Circling the caravan...

Muurido goes through the portal and looks at her new surroundings.

Muurido would find themselves in a forest clearing! A huge tower in front of them. It looks dark... and ominous.

Dact nods. "Good. Lets head off then." He turns and starts off! Heading for the nearest big castle town on a hill.

"Uh... hi I guess?" Kazuya said, puzzled by the strange form with the normal clothing.

The creature sips a cup of tea with its claws. "Care for a spot of tea? I didnt expect company, but there is plenty of hot water to spare."

[Blaze]

Nova rubs her chin.

"What could I get with them now?"

Don just smiles as he makes his way in to chase after the creature.

"Those!" said Dawn as she reaches into her cleavage where a ripple had appeared. She place her left hand to her side and moans as she pulled out a long thin sword. The raise it above her head and then release a flash of light. Five beams shot from the blade to hit five bandits.

"Light Slashes," said Dawn as she seem to have swung the sword.

[Raleigh]

*Follows along behind Dact.* So, anything I need to keep in mind here? Things like magic being taboo or gender specific or anything like that?

[Knight Errant]

Nova rubs her chin.

"What could I get with them now?"

Dact hmmms. "Well you could get a level up, a training weapon, a light health potion... or a minor enchanted artifact."

Don just smiles as he makes his way in to chase after the creature.

He enters the water! It is cold and dark. The yawning opening soon descending into a dark winding tunnel devoid of air. Should he continue swimming inwards he would begin to see more traces of masonry and columns... and a light up ahead.

Meanwhile a fight breaks out! The guards whirl around the caravan in a practiced fashion... a pair of crossbowmen on the caravan beginning to fire as the guards on horseback begin engaging the bandits in mounted swordplay. The first wave of bandits is stumbled back a bit by the flashing light beams... but soon archers from the woods begin firing arrows in towards everyone!

"I have no idea. Wouldn't be fun if I did, would it? I just know that this land has an abundance of princesses. And that has attracted an abundance of dragons and evildoers. So we could possibly pick from one of several imperiled princesses. We can go for whichever is the richest or most imperiled. Which is usually the same one."

They soon come across a rough road leading to the castle. Which begins growing nearer. A man on horseback passes them, going the other way. He nods to them briefly.

[Raleigh]

How very true. I have to ask though as I don't think I've ever seen it myself, do you own a horse? I mean you are a knight and all.

What kind of place was this thought Don as he made his way. He held his breath as he prepares for the lack of air that was up ahead.

"Drats," said Dawn as she notice the archers. She spun her sword to fire several beams of light to take care of the majority of the arrows but knew she needed something else. Dawn began to spin around as she reached into the ripple above her cleavage to pull out what looks like a mirror but that was a shield.

"Mirror Shield," said Dawn as she had it strapped to her left hand. She was trying to aim it to try to reflect some of the arrows aimed at her. Dawn was trying to scout the area to see if she could find anybody who looked like a leader of the bandits.

[Blaze]

Nova shakes her head.

"Um... I'll save them. Can I attend a training lesson now please?"

[Knight Errant]

How very true. I have to ask though as I don't think I've ever seen it myself, do you own a horse? I mean you are a knight and all.

Dact pauses. "Yes I do, actually... I just usually prefer walking. But this would make things baster." He reaches in his pack... taking out a small box. There is a faint whinny inside. He sets it on the ground and backs up slightly... There is a small explosion, as a stable appears on the side of the road where the box was! Inside are several fine chargers... Dact mounts up on a pre-armored one... looking groomed and ready to fight.

"Go ahead and pick one. Just dont eat it..."

What kind of place was this thought Don as he made his way. He held his breath as he prepares for the lack of air that was up ahead.

Up ahead he finally sees a silvery ripple above... air! He would break his head above the water, inhaling the stale, damp air. The cave... or whatever... is rather dark. Faintly illuminated by luminous fungi growing between the stones. He seems to be in what looks like used to be a road or canal. Probably the latter. It disappears into the darkness... but there are raised sections on either side if he wants to get a bit dry.

Meanwhile, several guards start to get overwhelmed... but Dawn's advance barely keeps them together. It seems they may almost have it until a rogue on a black stallion charges out of the brush... wielding a hand crossbow and a axe. Clad in black leather armor and eyepatch, he charges the nearest guards! His one good eye glinting malevolently as they cringe.

Nova shakes her head.

"Um... I'll save them. Can I attend a training lesson now please?"

Dact nods. "Indeed... what kind of training would you like? Martial? Magical? Physical? I offer just about every range."
