[QUOTE="Sabaron, post: 209289, member: 285"] <Isles_DM> Slayzer, you had booked passage to a nearby port city, in response to a call they had put out for warriors in the cause of good. During your passage, a terrible storm washed you overboard. You floated on the sea for 3 days and 4 nights before washing up on a beach. <Skarnkai> Damn... <Skarnkai> do I lose my possessions? <Isles_DM> No <Skarnkai> (thankfully I wasn't in heavy armor heh) <Isles_DM> (There's a reason you couldn't just book passage to here) <Skarnkai> Alright I get my bearings then... <Isles_DM> You are lying on a sandy beach. To your north, there appears to be a grassy plain. To your south is the ocean, and east and west are more beach <Darkwolf-afk-back-later> ***log from Friar and Char is up*** <Skarnkai> Hmmm I search the beach for any other survivors first <Skarnkai> (searching the nearby beaches) <Isles_DM> It seems that no one else floating in this direction <Isles_DM> *floated <Isles_DM> It seems awfully cold here... <Skarnkai> well then... <Skarnkai> I move inland and look for water...
