So this guy in my group ends up getting killing by some mobs and after a while realizes he doesn't know his way back so one of my groupmates goes to get him. It's getting really boring waiting and I'm about to leave when they finally show up.


A Long Corridor
You are standing in a long, barren corridor. Quiet noises can
be heard echoing from an indeterminable direction, distorted by
their multiple reflections off the gray stone walls. A torch set
into a sconce gives off dim, flickering light that can barely
illuminate the area. The corridor continues both east and west,
and a steep, wide stairway leads up to some kind of an entry hall.

[Exits: east west up]

Inside the Entry Hall
Dull torchlight flickers on the walls of this small building - or
more precisely - a hall in the upper end of a wide stairway. The
smoke of the torches has formed a black, pungent cloud that makes
your eyes itch, with no other way for it to escape than the small
ventilation holes left in the walls near the ceiling. The stairs
lead into the depths of the ground, the steps looking quite new
and undamaged despite being stained by countless footprints. In
the lower end you see some sort of a corridor.

On the Yard
You are standing on a small, muddy courtyard surrounded by massive
walls of gray stone all around. Countless footprints can be seen
on the ground, some of them very recently made. On your north
side, there's a gate in the wall leading out of this ominous
little stronghold, and to the south you see a simple, sturdy stone
building. In the other directions, the yard continues.

[Exits: north east south west]

{100% 100% 96%} * 77.84% 6 PM civilized n
Inside the Gate
The archway of the gate surrounds you, the smooth, gray granite
feeling almost oppressive as it looms above. Set on both the left
and the right wall is a sconce, holding a simple torch that spreads
flickering light - and irritating, black smoke - into the
surroundings. Muddy bootprints stain the gray stone slabs that form
the floor, but otherwise everything looks relatively new and clean.
A sturdy, large iron portcullis is to the north, through which you
would have to go should you wish to leave this place. To the south,
you see a small yard.

This man's hair is thick and oddly colored. Tawny,
almost golden, it frames his face and falls below his
houlders where it darkens and appears as black and
shiny as a raven's wing. He has strange,
liquid amber eyes. They are mesmerizing.
A cat's eyes. Wild. Mysterious. Hypnotizing.
Blazing with some emotion unknown to outside entities.
The pupils are intensely pale and unusually elliptical.
There are long, obscene scars etched into the left side
of the face of an angel. Wicked and Frightful,
they run from his scalp to his shadowed jaw,
four of them, as if some wild animal had raked his cheek, tearing
the flesh right down to the bone. And he does have the
face of an angel, absurdly handsome, a face any artist
would want to capture on canvas for all time. His body is
toned to an athletic beauty. His sinews defined and rippling
with strength beneath his shirt. His thighs twin columns
of power, like oak tree trunks. He is of average
height and well proportioned, frightening in his size and
the power he exudes.
SLOW ASSASSIN, a male human, is in perfect health.

Was I ever this much of a newb?

The answer is probably yes. I know I was. nt

And some others too, but I find the game more immersive with descriptions on. nt

Not everyone has a list of all the sleek sets. Sometimes it pays to watch room descriptions for your next mage. ~
