Group RP The Jeweled Champions and Friends (IC thread)

With the guests occupied getting into costume, Brock was making some last minute preparations to the dungeon master's nook. "Our guests haven't played Chambers before, so I will be explaining more than usual to make sure they understand how everything works." he assured a chatter.

In the costume closet, Misty told Carolyn "Minstrels typically wear colorful and sparkling costumes, and we have plenty of those." she explained as she unearthed a red martial artist's costume for Robert to wear.

 

@ShinigamiMiroku

"Not necessarily--we're in standard lights, not stage lights." Misty replied. "If we did have stage lights in the gaming room, we would, but we're just under everyday lighting."

 

@ChocoChicken

"Like this?" Misty showed Carolyn a festive minstrel costume that evoked fire, with red, oranges, and golds.

(the costume's basic design, with cool colors)

@ShinigamiMiroku

"The only time we've ever had to wear makeup was for the live show earlier this year, which sold out the Fireside." Misty smiles at a memory.

 

@Laserdragon14 @ShinigamiMiroku @ChocoChicken

"You're welcome!" Misty smiled as she followed Carolyn into the gaming room. "You look perfect, by the way." she assured Robert.

Brock, meanwhile, organized the adventure books. "Everyone's here....shall we get started?"

Misty took a moment to leave some 20 sided dice at the guests' places at the table. "d20's! d20's! d20's for everyone!"

"That d20 is your battle dice--more on that when we actually get to fight." Brock explained before cuing some adventurous music to signal that the adventuring was beginning...

 

@Laserdragon14 @ShinigamiMiroku @ChocoChicken

(unlike the real D&D game, you don't need a million dice to do the same action--all you basically need are a d20 and a d6. Brock uses DungeonNav's digital dice roller to do all the rolling)

After introducing Shadow, Robert, and Carolyn to the online audience, Brock went on "If this is your first time watching, let's have everyone go around and introduce their characters."

"My character is Aldaron the Red, a neutral good human wizard of the Redstorm Wizard Enclave." Ash explains. "Unlike most wizards, the wizards of Redstorm learn to wield such weapons as swords and bows, in hopes they will lend their magic to the battlefield. Shuddering at the thought of being dragon fodder..."

Giggles go up at this. "...Aldaron decided to venture out on his own, looking for others that fought for peace and justice."

"My character is Dame Meri of Halidor, a lawful good Blue Dragon magic knight." Misty explains. "Trained in the ways of the blade and magic, she longed to see what lay beyond the walls of the city. So with her captain's blessing, she began searching for others with a similar cause."

Serena gets up from the table. "My character is Christine Belmont, a lawful good runeblade of the Lumiere school of spellfencing. After several years of training, she yearns to make a name for herself as a great hero."

"Okay...now for the guests to introduce their characters." Brock went on.

 

@ShinigamiMiroku

Hearts and like icons went up for Robert's character introduction. The chat thought a dwarven fighter was a cool and interesting idea. Most guests that played dwarves tended to play them as physical tanks, or clerics if they could use magic at all.

 

@Laserdragon14

The chat seemed to sense Shadow was nervous, and sent him some welcome emojis, "Good job!" emojis, and like icons to assure him that his intro was good. It wasn't often that someone played a neutral runeblade, but when they did, they were most likely the fire or ice archetype.

(the online chatters will mainly cheer you guys on, but sometimes they will encourage you, offer hints, or make jokes and memes about the unfolding action.)
