The Three Rings of Power Part 1: The Ring of Promethius
Prologue
The Ring of Promethius is the first of the three godly rings. It's power, unmatched by anything. The holder of this ring has powers restricted only to he gods. Because of this it is hidden far into a cave, a cave only the most skilled of wizards, or fighters, could get through. Guarded by ancient creatures, you need brains, courage, strength and skill to get to the end of The Cave of Promethius. It has remained hidden for thousands of years, but it is now about to get uncovered.
Five people have been sent on a mission to recapture a jewel that has been stolen and hidden in the Cave of Promethius.
Shingo Van'Ralley, a Drow Half-Elven Conjurer, he was raised by a Drow Elf man and a Human lady, both who had evil intentions. They were killed by a paladin named Minstrola Gruhzfeh, and Shingo was raised in a special mage orphanage, where he learnt the art of conjuring and summoning.
Zhakk Findre, a Fremlin Theif, his parents were killed by the same paladin after they stole 120000 gold off an important family. Zhark grew up on the streets, pick pocketing and robbing people for money and food.
Quintin Zarraf, a Gnomish Illusionist, was the son of two incredibly rich Gnomes. When he was very young he was enrolled in a high class School of Illusion. He is now an expert Illusionist and lives in a huge mansion, and enjoys messing with peoples minds.
Clouder McLink, a Dwarven Fighter, grew up with a fighting Dojo, where he learnt the art of sword fighing and many other fighting stratagies. At a young age he won first place in the National Shintoza Boxing Competition, and hasn't been beaten since.
Keeran Von Darkmore, a Human Paladin, is a decendant of Minstrola Gruhzfeh, and is one of the strongest paladins around. He goes where ever there is evil, or someone needs help, and is even the protecter of a small poor country.
One day, these five people got a letter, to go to a city named Penzai, which is next to the Cave of Promethius. The letter said:
To whom who gets this letter,
You are to go to the city of Penzai, to help with a grave situation.
