Disclaimer: I don't Elsword. I do however own the characters that are roleplaying them :3
First session prologue: Act like a fourteen year old please
Many years ago, the world was one of darkness and chaos. However the Goddess of El brought salvation, sending a huge crystal to the heart of the world, bringing life and peace to the mortal world. This crystal was known as the El, and thus, the land it revived became known as Elrios.
"That's a stupid name," Ethan stated. "Couldn't you have named it in a non cliché way?"
Ethan shut up. You named your character after this as well, so I don't want to hear that shit from you.
"I was just saying."
Just let me finish please. You can complain after the session has ended.
"Fine."
Anyway, the land of Elrios was a prosperous one due to the El, however it's past of darkness wasn't truly gone. These dark influences are the reason why there are still monsters in the world. But the greed of humans knew no bounds, and they abused the power of the El. Corruption spread, and the darkness was beginning to return as conflicts started. Due to the conflicts the El exploded into thousands of pieces and was scattered amongst the continent.
Many years have passed and the small village of Ruben is where the three of you start out. After hearing about the rumors of a bandit trying to steal a nearby shard of El, you make an unlikely group to stop them.
"Doesn't this town have like a garrison of some sort?" Aisha asked.
No. Let's say they didn't believe you when you told them.
"So they're clichély stupid?" Ethan stated.
I let out a long sigh. Yes, they're stupid. Anyway, introduce your characters to each other. Like your back-story, your characters likes and dislikes, and why they care about the El. Remember to role play your characters as well.
"Alright," Ethan exclaimed. "The name is Elsword Sieghart, and I'm a knight. My parents died when I was young so my older sister raised me by herself-"
"Sounds horrific," Aisha interrupted.
"Anyway," Ethan ignored her. "She was a knight, which is why I became a knight myself. Though the thing is, my sister suddenly disappeared without a trace or reason and so one day I want to leave this town to find her. I have this gut instinct that her disappearance has something to do with the El, which is why I care about it. As for likes and dislikes, I don't dislike anything and I like alcohol and whores."
…What?! Ethan you can't do that!
"Why not?"
Elsword's a minor!
"Oh good point. He likes alcohol and cheap strippers then."
No! Dude. He's fourteen! FOURTEEN! Act like you're fourteen!
"Fine. He likes juice and pretty women. There, now it's boring. Happy?"
Thank you. Okay who's next? Aisha?
"My name is Aisha Glenstid-" Aisha started to introduce herself, only to be interrupted by Ethan.
"You named your character after yourself?"
Aisha's face reddened. Taking out a book I bopped Ethan on the head. Shut up please Ethan. Anyway Aisha, continue please.
"I like fire, and yes my character is a pyromaniac. I dislike people that get in the way of my aspirations."
No comment…
"Anyway as for my back story. I was once a powerful mage despite my young age. But one day I found a ring of power on my travels. I was traveling with my grandfather at that time, and he took it, saying it was too dangerous for me."
…Why does this sound familiar?
"But wanting the ring, I smothered him in his sleep and took the ring for myself then ran, and because I wore the ring I lost the majority of my power and now I'm just an average mage trying to regain her power through the El."
Silence filled the group. I slam my head on the wooden table we were playing our session on. Ethan's eyes are wide as he takes in the details. And Rachel, our last member just seems confused.
"Your turn Rachel," Aisha said innocently.
"Umm. R-Right," Rachel stated. "Sorry if some things don't make sense. It's my first time playing this sort of thing."
Don't worry about it. We all have to start somewhere. Rachel blushes before clearing her throat.
"I-I'm an elven archer and my name is Rena," Rachel stated. "I was sent by my people to hunt this bandit that is trying to steal the El shard. And I like eating fruits."
Once again silence filled our table.
"I didn't know we were meant to have a back story," Rachel explained, blushing. "So I didn't really make one. Sorry."
That's fine, we'll make do without one. Okay now that everyone knows each other's characters, let's get into the story.
The three of you were rudely rejected by the garrison when you tried to tell them that a bandit known as Banthus was trying to steal the El shard. So knowing this, the three of you decide to try and stop this, and are now at a tree in the middle of the forest not far from the town of Ruben. It has a peaceful feel, with the large tree gracing the surroundings in its calm aura. The stream behind it runs gently like a melody from a poem. Birds chirp peacefully in the wind, and the three of you are looking at the El shard embedded in the tree. What do you guys do now?
"I look for a strip club to chill at," Ethan stated with a straight face.
YOU ARE FOURTEEN FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!
A/N: so after playing so D&D with friends I decided to start writing this as I was bored. Tell me if this was enjoyable and I might continue this idea.
