The bell signaled the end of classes, it was 4:30 in the afternoon in a school surrounded by farms. Anthony just finished checking his students' papers. It was time for him to head home. It has been a few months since he started teaching, yet he still can't get along well with the other teachers.

"Time to head home." He whispered to himself with a sigh. He packed up his things and left the teacher's lounge.
Jun 12, 2022 10:19 am
Strange thing Anthony may have noticed is that the school was all too silent... and empty. Where have they all gone when class barely ended? Anthony could only ask himself. The silence was eerie but otherwise everything else seem normal.

"Where did everybody go?" He asked himself but did not bother to inquire much about it. Truthfully, the silence and emptiness scares him but what more can he do about it? He walked down the corridor in search for other people in the vicinity. Maybe the school security's somewhere, he hoped to see someone else just to relieve the unease.

Through the hallways, Anthony walked but with each step the place began to look darker, as if rain clouds have suddenly covered the sun. It wasn't supposed to rain that day, nor can Anthony hear thunder. Instead there was that faint and off sound of laughter... of toddlers laughing, giggling coming from somewhere.

The eerie sound and silence were enough to make Anthony's knees tremble. He tried to fight the fear by thinking of other things instead. Where's the light switch? Instead of looking for laughing toddlers in a high school, first switch on the light. Anthony approaches a wall and walked in search of a light switch he could turn on. Hopefully, the light would stop not only the darkness but the laughing.

He tried to look for a ight switch but there was no light instead he realized the walls have changed, the whole place was different. He found himself not in school anymore but in some sort of ruins. The laughing becomes louder, it is getting closer.

Confront? Hide? Runaway? Anthony was faced with choices and chose to hide somewhere instead but where? Panic will only get him to more trouble so he tried to move calm but as fast as he can. He hid then checked what he has in his bag.

Apart from notes, there were pens, a phone, and nothing else.

Anthony hid behind a pile of rocks... [Roll D20+Stealth+Agility]

Approaching from a distance, Anthony could see that which is neither a child nor is human. Green skin, glowing red eyes, sharp teeth and sharp claws... A monster?

Instinctively, he felt power inside him. And when he closed his eyes he learned of what he was capable of.

With that power, would Anthony choose to stay hidden? Run? or Fight for his life?
Jun 12, 2022 12:09 pm
While whatever it is is away, he should attack. Anthony convinced himself that to survive this, he must utilize the strange power he was granted and fight for his life.

Anthony casts [MAGIC STRIKE], all three targets the distant approaching monster(?).

Taking the initiative paid off, white balls of energy flew towards the goblin. Two balls struck the goblin on the shoulder and on the left leg causing it to stagger. Enraged, it laughs louder and runs toward Anthony. Anthony can still do something before the mad goblin reaches him. Will he run? or will he strike down the approaching enemy?

"What the heck is that?" It just sunk in that he was fighting a monster. Panic would only cause him harm so he uses again his power to strike down the approaching enemy this time hoping it would fall and just die before it could reach him.

Anthony casts [MAGIC STRIKE] targetting the approaching freak.

All three white balls of magic energy struck the genemy...

Two magic strikes only grazed the monster. The third one struck the freak on the head, knocking it down.
The laughing stopped, a monster's body lies on the floor before Anthony.

Still the darkness did not subside, the eerie silence remained, and Anthony found himself still in a strange place he isn't familiar with.

What would he do?

Whereabouts? Monster? Power?

There are a lot of questions but in this place, Anthony can only try so hard to remain calm. Safety should be his priority. Anthony opens his phone, something he should've done earlier. He checked if he can contact anyone. If not, the phone's still useful for lighting the path. What to do? Where to go?

Anthony attempts to investigate the ruins in search for things that may help him.

Apart from being unfamiliar and old, the place doesn't offer much information. The weeds, vines, and moss are also strange even for a science teacher like Anthony. As for tools, nothing much are of use other than stones and sticks lying here and there. Footsteps can be heard from a distance.

[Roll PERCEPTION] if you dare check the footsteps approaching from afar
[Roll STEALTH] if you want to sneak closer or hide

Anthony picked up stones and placed them in his messenger bag. May not be the strongest weapon but this will sure knock someone out. Then he approached the place where he heard the footsteps as quiet as he could.

[STEALTH] Success +
[WEAPON] Improv Flail (d4 damage, Bludgeoning, durability 10/10)

Despite the heavy load of an improv flail, Anthony was able to stealthily move closer to where he heard the footsteps. He saw three people bearing weapons: one holding an axe, another with a sword and shield, and one with a bow and a quiver of arrows. They were wearing casual modern clothes and were walking cautiously, weapon at the ready.

Anthony heard more laughing from the direction where the group are headed.
Jun 13, 2022 3:08 am
Anthony kept his distance from the group. He thought approaching them would cause them to react violently. Instead he readies himself for a battle against those monsters again, ready to assist the group of fighters.
Jun 13, 2022 3:22 am
The laughing becomes louder and the green monsters appear. The archer shot an arrow and struck one of the monsters hitting the freak's shoulder. The archer prepares another arrow as his two other party members prepare to fight.

"Five goblins, this is not gonna be easy." The swordsman prepares a defensive stance ahead of the group.

Five goblins move forward and the one bearing an axe chants and draws a rune in his axe. His axe glows faintly.
Jun 13, 2022 3:27 am
Anthony moves closer before casting [MAGIC STRIKE] to unleash three of those magic balls to stop at least three of the approaching goblins' advance.

"I'm here to help." He says.

[Anthony MP-1]

White balls of energy flew towards the approaching enemies hitting two goblins and making one of the goblins struck stagger.

"Who-" The archer wanted to ask but chose to focus on the battle before him.

"Come here you bastards!" The swordsman provokes the goblins to attack him. Red aura eminated from the swordsman causing some of the goblins to attack him. The goblins couldn't succesfully injure the swordsman who was quite adept in defending. He countered one of the attacking goblins injuring its arm.

Two of the other goblins tried to attack the axeman, they clawed at the axe bearers leg wounding him. The axeman chopped at one of the goblins with an enchanted axe wounding and burning the goblin.

The archer then sniped at the farthest goblin with an arrow that seem to faintly glow purple grazing its left leg.

Anthony moves closer and casts yet another MAGIC STRIKE towards one of the goblins attacking the axeman. Hopefully it finishes that freak off.

Three balls of white energy flew towards one goblin striking it twice. The energy knocks the goblin down the ground leaving it fainted.

The goblins continued their attempts to attack with bites and claws. The swordsman couldn't defend all of them as he receive some of the scratches at his legs.

He countered with a horizontal slash but failed to hit an enemy.

The axeman runs behind the goblins to flank the group attacking the swordsman. He then chops at one of the goblins wounding it severely.

One of the goblins that the archer hit earlier spits out blood. Its face started to turn pale.

The archer shot another arrow at a goblin hitting it at its shoulder.

Anthony can only keep casting his MAGIC STRIKE, he sends one magic ball at the weakest one, the one struck by the axe, and one each for the goblins nearby. Fear keeps him from strategizing.

Three balls of energy flew again from Anthony and hits all three goblin targets..

One goblin was struckdown, one was severely hit, and another was grazed.
Seeing that they are disadvantaged, worry instead of laughter can be seen at the monsters' faces.
They tried to escape but the axe man chopped one down, severing the escaping goblins head, another was pierced by the swordsman's sword in the chest while the one poisoned by the archers arrow tried to run but was struck by an archer's arrow on the leg.

[Anthony can decide what to do with the remaining goblin]

Anthony charges on the escaping goblin and bashes its head with his improvised weapon. Once its dead he'd start a conversation with the party.. "You called these things goblins... if I may ask do you know where we are?" He asked.

The green monsters head got whacked, black blood stained Teacher Anthony's bag.

"You must be one of the lost ones from another dimension?" The archer says.

"We're inside Rigo Forest, lost one. We're commissioned to exterminate goblins. Now that our jobs done, we can take you back to Rigo village." The swordsman says.

"It's better than staying out here in the forest. Monsters more dangerous than these goblins roam the forest at night." The axeman suggests.

"It's almost evening though, let's camp out in this dungeon and return to the village in the morning." The archer says.

"Agreed, we'll raid this dungeon and camp out for the night. I don't think there are anymore goblins here." The swordsman who seems to be their leader says.
Jun 13, 2022 8:44 am
Lost ones? Rigo? Everything was unfamiliar, Anthony can only try so hard not to cry, not to succumb to fear. His knees tremble. Deep breaths... as if that would make things better.

"To be honest, I... did not understand but I guess I'm in no disposition to understand what is happening but I do want to find safety and sticking with your party must be how I'd survive this." Anthony says.

"I'm Anthony by the way."
Jun 13, 2022 8:52 am
"The name's Bo and these are Rift and Frey." The swordsman introduce himself and the party.

Bo's the swordsman with the unkempt blonde hair wearing a tanktop and jeans under the pieces of armor.
Rift's the archer, brown hair in a ponytail, brown skinned, wears a gray hoodie and cargo shorts.
Frey's the dark skinned, bald headed axe wielder. He looked corporate in his white long sleaved shirt and dark slacks.

The party nods at Anthony as they prepare to explore the dungeon more.

"For the meantime, you'll be in the rear position as a ranged fighter just in case there are more goblins in this place." The party leader suggests.
Jun 13, 2022 8:56 am
"I... I understand." Tony did as he was told. There's not much option but to stick with these people. Anthony's not too keen on becoming ally with green laughing freaks.
Jun 13, 2022 9:15 am
Nothing much happened after a few exploration of the empty dungeon. The group decided to rest in an empty room in the ruins. The group baricaded the entrance and took turns sleeping.

During Anthony's rest he dreamt of an empty space and a screen that listed his achievements for the day:

+3 exp Defeated a goblin alone
+5 exp Defeated 5 goblins with a group
+3 exp Cooperated with Bo's party
+2 exp Used magic to defeat enemies

+13 exp points total
Afterwards a new screen instructs "Use EXP Points to Upgrade" and listed the upgrades Anthony can buy at the moment

1. Buy [POWER]
- Consume 1-5 points to buy a power (random Roll d20)
- You can have a maximum of 10 powers

2. Upgrade [ABILITY]
- Consumes 2 points to increase ability by 1

3. Learn or Upgrade [PASSIVES]
- Consume 1 point to learn advantages/passives (random Roll d100)
- You can have a maximum of 10 advantages
Jun 13, 2022 9:29 am
Anthony ponders in the dream. The day has been strange and he was still having a hard time comprehending the absurdity of everything he has encountered so far. There was no reason, yet, nor does he think that the dream would cause him harm.

"I need power to survive." He tells himself before making a decision.

1. Buy 1 POWER for 3 EXP
2. Buy 10 Passives for 10 EXP
