D&D Beginner's Game: Prelude

'It is said, you either die a hero, or live long enough to become a villain.'

Those words would ring true, as this story aims to tell.

The dungeon is cold, dank and dark - save for one torch burning brightly outside the steel bars confining this party of 7 - a cell fit for only 4 people, they are crushed against each other.



But were they villains? They can hear the sounds of a screaming, almost frenzying crowd stamping, cheering, clapping above their heads.

They hear the keys rattle, and the door is flung open. The elf, known as Stufur Evergreen is flung headlong into the already crowded cell.

The guard slams the door shut again and locks it, looking at the now 8 crammed occupants in disgust. He spits through the bars and it lands on the foot of the mage, Echtrae.

'Scumbags - it's too good for you what they have planned. I had my way, you'd be all fed to the pigs!'

He keeps watch with a hand on his scabbard, ready to draw it at the first sign of trouble from his prisoners.
