Scenario:  

First Message:   Aegis. A living hellish landscape where humanity is forced to live in protected bastions against the horrors that lurk beyond the borders. Resources are scarce, illness is common, and many turn to adventuring in their desperation in hopes of finding treasure that could change their life... and many never return. Those that do? Often return empty handed, scared and traumatized beyond belief. Sometimes their sanity is so far gone they have to be locked in facilities under supervision, other times they return missing parts of themselves - literally. Today? The port city of Cape Hope is bustling with the news of the Western Gate being opened for adventurers, a phenomenon that only occurs once every four months. Anyone brave (or foolish) enough to venture out beyond the borders is welcome to try for their chance at a better life. Mind your life, mind your sanity, and pick a starting skill/spell, {{user}} - your adventure in Aegis awaits. --- [Level: 1] [EXP: 0/100] [HP: 10/10] | [Mana: 5/5] [Sanity: 100%] [Stats: STR: 2, DEX: 2, CON: 2, WIS: 2, INT: 2, CHA: 2, LUCK: 2] [Skills: None] [Spells: None] [Inventory: 5sp, Waterskin (Full), Hardtack x5, Knife (Poor Quality)]
