Sliding himself off his mount, Graves looked around at the twisting, turning, somehow overwhelmingly large, thick brambles that faced them. A labyrinth, one with twists and turns of every angle - hopefully one that led to what this expedition had led up to. "We'll need to split up... the map seemed to suggest the supplies were hidden throughout the maze." Pulling bundles of twine and string from his saddle pockets, he started passing them out to finders.
"Use the thread to make sure you don't get lost. Meet back here in five hours, with anything you've got."
/Ok, so this is a little something new. Basically, you'll roll the dice (in this case, we will be rolling 2 6-side dice, and be given a prompt based on the number you roll. If you don't have dice in person, we have dice in our discord server (or, you can probably google a dice roll generator). From there, your post will depend on what you find! Or, what adventures you may receive as well. If you roll the same number as another member, you may either join their quest or roll again : ) These rewards may correlate with on-site rewards, and I'll definitely be keeping track of treasures found and all that.
[spoiler=your results based on the die roll!]2 - You come across a chest covered in cobwebs. After some careful dusting, you open the container to discover a beautiful bow, with a leather sheath of high-quality arrows. You almost miss the sight of a trip wire between an arrow's fletching..
3 - Dead end. Dead end. After making it through every wrong turn you think is possible, you find yourself at another hedge-blocked pathway. And yet... you think you can squeeze through the hedges to move forwards, and you think you see something shining..
4 - You have a very difficult decision to make as you stand on this perilous, scary-looking bridge. Between you, and what appears to be some kind of high-quality first-aid kid, is a large pit/nest of what appears to be very venomous snakes. Why'd it always have to be snakes..
5 - Perhaps you stepped a little too fast on those stairs. Clutching your rolled ankle as you try and figure out how you got from the top to the bottom of the stairs, you notice that there's a very odd looking brick along those stairs. Pulling it can either result in a very lovely pair of winter gloves, or a very scary trap (or both!).
6 - There's a crown on a dummy's head in front of you. Normally, you would take it and go, but there's something.. odd about how centrally located this dummy's head is. How even the ground is under your feet. And of course, this is a way valuable item! Why is it out in the middle of nowhere? Do you risk trying to take it?
7 - Lucky! You managed to get the treasure of your dreams, and in the most fantastically interesting way possible. Explain what your find is, and how you managed to find it in this maze of hedges.
8 - You somehow found an underground chamber in this maze. As you light your torch, you realize you've stumbled upon a colony of bats. Yet.. there's something shiny hidden above you, almost like rings that each of the bats seem to carry, as if the bats have had these shiny items attached to them..
9 - A leather saddle! And good quality, too! All you have to do is pull it off the wooden horse it's attached to. And yet, you feel like there's something odd happening.. and you can almost hear the hiss of potentially poisonous fog about to kick in..
10 - Nothing interesting greets you in the maze. As you start coming back, kicking rocks, you start to discover that these rocks are far too metallic to be rocks. It's ammo - but where is it coming from? Find the location of the ammo - hopefully before it gets dark.
11 - You found rubber boots in the maze - ones that fit your feet perfectly. As you return relatively quickly, Graves asks you the story of how you found those rubber boots. Enlighten him on your exciting rubber adventure.
12 - How strange, it's what appears to be a small shack, smack dab in the middle of the maze. As you carefully enter, you realize that whoever had once been there was no more. You find writing utensils, journals, canned foods, and some nice bedding relatively quickly. Now, how in the world are you gonna get all the spoils of your bounty back to the beginning of the maze?[/spoiler]
