BASIC FANTASY RPG INTRODUCTION

PART 1: INTRODUCTION

It was our third foray into the dungeons beneath the ancient fortress in the middle of the river. We were on the second level down from the ruins, standing before the great bronze doors beyond which we believed lay the tombof an ancient barbarian chieftain. I hadn't believed the tales of the old drunk at the tavern back at Morgansfort,

but for some reason Apoulis the !leric believed him. "urned out his stories were true# mostly, anyway. I held a torch for $arthal the "hief as he tried briefly to pick the lock. %e turned around and said, &It must beheld by magic. "he lock won't even wiggle.

Morningstar the (lf smiled. &I have )ust the thing, she said, drawing from her backpack the scroll we took fromthe goblins. *he unrolled it and began to read, and though I couldn't understand her words I could see thecharacters burning away as she read them, little wisps of smoke as from a candle rising up from each in turn.*eeing that she was nearly through, I turned my attention to the lock. I'm not sure what I was e+pecting, but thelittle puff of dust that came from it as she finished didn't seem like much. *he turned to $arthal and said, &"ryagain.

I'm tempted to say that $arthal bent to his work, but he's a %alfling at )ust over three feet tall he could look straight into the lock without stooping a bit. I must have looked impatient, as Apoulis leaned over to me and said, &$e still, -arion, he'll be through in a moment or two.

"hen I heard a loud click, and $arthal turned to me with a smile. &It's open, my friend. After you I handedhim the torch, then stepped to the doors, sword drawn, and Morningstar )oined me, likewise ready. I steeledmyself and opened the doors#

$eyond lay a stone sarcophagus, resting atop a raised platform. *trewn about the floor were many human skeletons. Apoulis made a sign with his hand that I didn't recognize then we walked in carefully, trying not totrip over the bones. I noticed among the bones several bronze swords, covered in verdigris. I stepped to the sarcophagus. &"he lid is likely very heavy, I said. &!ome, Morningstar, rather than lift it, let's turn it about sowe can see what treasures lie inside.

Morningstar called &Wait but it was too late# I had already laid hands upon the sarcophagus. "he bones onthe floor began to rattle, then rose up and assembled themselves in a mockery of life. Without delay they pickedup their swords from the floor and began to attack us. I would have to wait until later to kick myself, I mused, as I put my back against the sarcophagus and began to fight the monsters#
