Abayde Must Be Stopped

Postby Shamson » Wed Jun 23, 2021 7:03 am

[Saturday 26th June, 1PM EST. This event is likely to last several hours.]

Greetings, adventurers.

I write to you now in a time of dire need. You may have noticed that a so-called "necromancer" known as Abayde has been attacking our towns and cities with a horde of zombies that appears to be under his control. While the adventuring population has done a good job of fighting off these attacks, we now have reason to believe that Abayde plans to obstruct all life monuments, eventually trapping us all in a cycle of eternal death.

This must not be allowed to happen.

Therefore, we are proposing a mission to defeat Abayde once and for all. Our scholarly research informs us that Abayde has an amulet. Fuelled by his dark machinations, this amulet has granted him near-invulnerability, in exchange for his humanity. To stop Abayde, we must sneak into his realm, steal the amulet, and destroy it.

To do so, we're going to need a lot of help. This is why I write to you now.

Firstly, we'll need a powerful enchanter from the schools of Ryndall, to open a portal to his pocket dimension. We would like your opinion on which mage is best suited for this mission, so please write your nominations below.

Secondly, Abayde's twisted home contains an unfathomably large zombie horde, making progress impossible under normal conditions. We need volunteers, at a variety of skill levels, to attempt to draw the herd away so that we can sneak in. Our calculations suggest that all levels of adventurer will be needed, particularly those under level 40.

Lastly, we'll also need volunteers to enter his domain, find the amulet, and destroy it. The "undead dimension" is mostly a mystery to us, but we can expect extreme resistance, warped and confusing spaces, and possibly Abayde himself. While every aspect of this mission is risky, this is the most challenging. Our research indicates that only adventurers above level 40 may survive the encounters within, at best.

If you get lost or isolated within, you will be consumed. If Abayde finds out what we're doing and catches us, you will be consumed. If our distraction tactic doesn't work well enough, or works too well, you will be consumed. Make no mistake as to the severity of what I am asking you to do.

For obvious reasons, this plan must be kept a secret. If you wish to volunteer, sign below and pass this scroll on to others you may know. Please also write any nominations you have for our portal requirement. Do not, under any circumstances, reveal this plan to Abayde. It might just be the last chance we have to stop him.

Signed,

High Cleric Shamson the Holy, on behalf of the Council of Branishor.

*Falx writes his name in the volunteers part, and Modus Discipula Arctane's as a suggestion for the portal creator*

Added to the parchment in his usual barely-legible scrawl
'Pallas is more than ready to enter Abayde's domain again, and assist in the search for his amulet'

Count me in!
And I have always liked that Albertus. He isn’t as grumpy as most of the other enchanters from the Council.
I'm sorry, I can't hear you over the sound of how awesome I am :D

Looks over the message. Signs his name on the parchment and grins.
Ridder Zeric of Admin says "[Broadcast] **looks at the fact 14 hours have passed on the clock** Oh. That explains why I'm tired. **collapses**"

I’ve been considering the matter of a mage to assist us in this endeavour. I would agree with those who have already suggested Arctane. She is capable of the task I’m sure.
And there would be a further advantage if she can join us. Her osprey Pandion, able to soar above any resistance we meet, will make a useful scout.
