Present Zelpha

[Drake]

Alright, so we don't exactly have a plot at the moment. But one is bubbling beneath the surface. Now is as good a time as ever to release our first plot event in ages. All people are welcome to join, hence the sign up thread here.

The General Idea
The Island of Mistia is a deadly place from where the mist spawns. Tales have always been told of the dangerous beasts that lurk there, and how those who venture forth never return. Yet if such dangers exist, certainly great treasures exist as well? This is exactly what is on the mind of a certain benefactor, a very strange young woman known as Ophelia. She's hungry... hungry for precious relics, preferably those with great magic powers. But where do you fall in? You've been recruited as a part of her team to go fetch what she desires from the island. There is certainly something off about this woman, but you can't exactly mark what it is. Besides, why worry about the dangers? She claims you'll be paid very well, and even agrees to pay half of your agreed salary up front. She also claims that you will be in little danger, and you and several others she have recruited will not go beyond the city limits of Orynopolis. You'll be completely safe, right?

Wrong. You board the luxury airship of your strange benefactor with several other optimistic people, all hoping to strike it rich by finding relics to appease this eccentric aristocrat. Yet immediately once the airship takes off, something is off. The crew running the airship lose their jovial appearances, turning into virtual monsters. The sweet woman who recruited you also seems to be much more blunt. She reveals her true intentions.

"You all will travel to the Keep of Oryn, and you will fetch me the coveted Essence of Livna which I believe to be held there. The Keep is far past Orynopolis, across the frozen wastes of the Esterlands. You will comply. Those who refuse I will simply have thrown from this ship right now. Or perhaps my crew would rather feast upon you? As you can see, you are in no position to fight. If you do as I wish, I will set you free when we return to Esto Gaza. And the money I promised, or even gave you? Forget about it. It was all an elaborate illusion."

Things couldn't get any worse, and you know you have no choice. Swallowing hard, you nod along with the rest of those on-board. You agree to go to Oryn and fetch this strange item that this woman wants.

General Information:
- A total of 3-4 people would be good, although more are welcome!
- It'll probably start in a week or so after we've got all the people
- Anyone is welcome, new and old. ^^
