Reality Check! - A Multiversal Dnd Game, turned Aventure

[DerpyCarp]

"I don't know what shampoo or conditioner are, but its true. Shiny Pokemon like me are abominations. My pack told me to stay at a distance, so if I were to draw predators, I would be the only one taken. And then one day I was talking to my mother by the River, and she pushed me in to stop my threat once and for all. It took me all they way to the ocean, where I was taken into the Gym of the Mighty." Fluffington pushes into Double's fingers, wanting more scratches.

Evan

A few minutes have gone by as you proceeded to go about with your own decisions of meeting each other, enjoying the snacks and refreshments, the music, etc. The peanut that Price threw seemed to make an action of bumping against a solid wall, before disappearing into the endless void, making one tap against the surface of the featureless ground, before bouncing and not making another sound again.

Amidst your conversations and actions you begin to notice that the outside crowd of voices have begun to die down, seeming a bit quieter as a loud whoosh begins to flood your ears, the sound erupting from all around. Almost mechanical, this rushing suddenly comes to a halt as a very low tone of a beep and bell ring can be heard. Then, a lone single white strip of light appears in the middle of the room, almost like it was being drawn, makes a mark of itself from the ceiling to where your feet touch the "surface", and opens up like a pair of twin doors.

As the strange rat man conversed, Evan had been sort of listening to the voices... he was highly suspicious of them. He wasn't so trusting of that other one that had told them not to trust 'him'. He didn't trust ANY of them...

As a strange mechanical whirr, something he sort of recognized (from living on that spaceship that belonged to that SNAKE), he looked away from Mug-Lug... There were doors now.

To nothing.

Despite the door forming and opening to more emptiness, some more seperate music, muffled by the sounds of wind can be heard from the empty doorway, as a sudden force begins to suck the group into the agape mouth of the strange entryway. No matter how much force you attempt to use to resist, your body is being dragged against your will, practically pulling you into the doorway of another empty abyss. As you all fall into the darkness one by one, and finally all have fallen inside, you're all quickly blinded by another sudden white flash of light.

The bright lights remain fixed and permanent to reveal you have all been crammed within this small yet decently sized elevator for the whole party. The right side of it reveals rows upon rows of buttons, all lit and activated like someone just ran their arm all over the entire console. However, amidst the elevator music, you all look up to see the floor counter. Rushing from 1st, as it continues to move nonstop upwards, skipping floors as you all notice it has already passed the 100th floor and continues to ascend.

If anyone attempts to stop the elevator or access the console of buttons, the various switches and devices seem to be implanted just to mimic the vision of an elevator, nothing more.

"..... what is... what is tHIS-"

As Evan felt his body being dragged, he seemed panicked... only for a second. But.. he wasn't being hurt, nothing bad had happened yet... he was fine.

A very familiar voice can be heard around the box of the elevator, as if an announcement.
"No need to be afraid now friends! Everything has been prepared, it'll be a little trip to get up here! Enjoy the ride!"

And in response following, a more automatic voice goes over the speaker instead adterwards.

[Passed Floor 500: Enroute to your Destination]

"AAAHHHHH MY-MY EYES!!! NO-NO MORE LIGHT'S!!!"

The warlord growled

a mere second after and Mûg-Lûg heard that familiar voice giving out reassurance, naturally the warlord did not believe a word of it

but now he was trapped in a small box with the Other-Things, in a brave attempt to muster up ideas Mûg-Lûg asked

"What-What?? Enjoy This-This small room?? What-What are we even doing Here-Here?! Why-Why not tell us all to prepare Huh?!"

As they all appeared in the room.. Evan didn't LOOK very shocked, or surprised. Maybe a little angry though... at the voice...

"..... dude.. what...."

Mug-Lug's troubled little monologue caught Evan's attention again... he sighed, slowly shuffling over to the big ass rat..

".... dude... you gotta calm the fuck down.. panicking like a fucking dog is gonna probably get you killed before anyone else honestly..."

The human sighed and patted him on the shoulder.

Fluffington accepted Price's shake, and Double came over to pet the animal as well. The latter asked if they knew of a planet "Etheria" which Price, of course, did not. "Etheria? Only inhabited planet I know of is Earth," he said to them. "You can guess where I'm from." Fluffington mentioned that she fought, and beat, several "Legendaries," or gods. John, although a tad skeptical that a small thing like her could beat "gods," decided not to question further. Especially after Double was saying they had similar exploits in their past. He has a tingly feeling that things are only going to get weirder, and if he questioned every odd thing that came his way, he won't get very far. Answers will come later, probably.

Hopefully.

In his peripherals, Price noticed light coming from over to the side. He turned to the swinging lines, confused. He took a few steps forward, different music starting to play from that direction. Suddenly, he felt himself start to get pulled towards the abyss. "Shit! What is this?" The Captain digs his feet into the ground, leaning back, trying to resist the pull. He tried to walk back to grab his boonie hat, but to no avail. Ultimately, his attempts failed, as his feet slipped and he was dragged into the darkness. Each of the eleven unfortunate souls ended up in the new room, and just as soon a blinding light flashed in their eyes.

The light faded as quickly as it appeared, and through many blinks Price realized they were all in an elevator. A voice sounded from above again, telling them to keep waiting. The elevator was quickly ascending, going past floor 500 in a short moment. John looked around at the others. All there, all perfectly fine. Well, as fine as you can be here. The music continued. And they waited.

Price leaned back against the elevator wall, standing in the corner opposite the buttons. He looked to Evan and Mûg-Lûg, the former attempting to calm down the latter. "Kid's right," he said to the rat, "you've got to keep your cool. Whoever's watching us, playing with us like pieces, is gonna to have something outside these doors," his thumb points to the elevator doors. "This room is taking us there. We're gonna to have to deal with it, whatever it may be. Only thing we can do right now, and by extension the thing you should be doing, is to not get riled up over it. Right?"

Valentine​

Seconds after her conversation with the other shapeshifter named Double, the people that trapped them there spoke to them again. They denied that they were in prison, and they also denied that they weren't in a show. Valentine continued to eat some more salty pretzel bites with her dark chocolate, slightly in shock as she didn't know what to think about it. Considering all of the information that was given to them, the people did say that there was a 'table and dice'. Remembering which games have dice, an idea popped up inside Valentine's head. However, before she could share her idea, she was sucked inside an elevator like everyone else. She held on to the buffet table of bite-sized snacks, but it was to no avail.

Regaining her consciousness, Valentine holds her head as she slightly had a headache. Probably from eating too many pretzels, and also getting sucked inside the elevator could be behind it. She readjusted her facemask and looked around the room, noticing the music this time was a trap mix of typical elevator music played in tv shows and movies. If she was all alone in the elevator, she would have already get turned up and dance away her problems; however, she was an adult woman in a skimpy nurse outfit. It would make her even look more insane. "I think I have an idea as to what they are going to do with us," she calmly announced to the group. "Does anyone know about tabletop roleplaying games? I may be wrong, but it seems very likely that we're going to be characters in one of them."

Valentine removed her hair tie and brushed it with her fingers, letting it all down, before proceeding to tie it back up. If they were actual characters in a tabletop game, it would explain why they had dice and some kind of table to put it on. Besides, with every game that comes with dice, a group of six voices would be too much for most board games that come with dice-rolling. It would cross-off Monopoly, Betrayal at House on The Hill, and other games that have a limit of 5 players. She rubbed her chin with her index and thumb, pondering what tabletop game it could be. "Anyone got any ideas about what game could it be? Then again, I might be getting ahead of myself."

”An elevator how original!” Supergirl muttered as she sat down, then the Nurse in the skimpy outfit spoke up.

”Probably D&D. It is after all the most famous RPG!” Supergirl sighed, she has played D&D once or twice with her human sister but never got into it.

"Abomination?" Double held on to their smile. "Why, this silky white coat of yours is such a unique shade!" The talk of predators pieced it together for Double. "Ah, so you live in the wild? A sentient wild creature, intriguing!" They continued to itch Fluffington wherever she indicated. "I am something of an outcast myself. Shapeshifters aren't very common in Ehteria. Speaking of which..." They turned to John. "We were interrupted. Etheria is my home, yes! I don't blame you for not knowing it, because our planet was tucked away in another dimension at least one eon ago. Very pretty planet, no shortage of monarchies."

Then Valentina proposed that they were headed to an RPG, and their head tilted. "I...don't know any. I do, however, remember a theatrical production about people who were sent to play a game for higher beings, but they were all murdered by the final boss. That means we're being sent to die, doesn't it?" They sighed. "If I'd known I would be thrown into a death game, I would have gotten one of my relatives to take over Peekablu for me."

[DerpyCarp]

Fluffington the Mighty rolls onto her back to look at Double Trouble better, and give her access to scratch her belly. "I don't live in the wild anymore. I joined the Gym of the Mighty, amd after it was destroyed, I ended up joining an adventuring group. We had a nice base in the Port Town of Steel Isle. I don't know what happened to it after the Fight with Dialga though... I bet they are fine!" Fluffington the Mighty smiles up at the shapeshifter.

[PopcornPie]

"Well, if you've been sent all the way over here with us, I'm afraid I wouldn't hold your breath." Double pressed their lips together. "For all we know, they've been sent to other games. Or Dialga has finished them off behind your back."

DerpyCarp

 

[DerpyCarp]

"Pft. We had him on the ropes. Even if he did keep fighting, his little Roar of Time was out of PP, I know cause I can count to 5! And his last one before I woke up here was the last, and I tanked it on my own, Like the other four!!" Fluffington the Mighty wiggles her paws, inviting belly rubs.
P PopcornPie

 

[PopcornPie]

Double chuckled and rubbed the Eevee's belly. "So what could have happened was the Roar of Time sending you to another timeline. Conveniently the same timeline as us, or maybe we've all transcended space and time." Then again...that was most likely what just happened. And the thought of being pulled across space and time was actually really cool! It made the situation feel very much important. Now, if only they were free to explore.

the Man-Thing and Evan-Thing had valid points, getting angry here and now would serve no purpose worth presenting to his god

"Yes-Yes, Remain calm, calm Good-Good for thought, I-I appreciate it Man-Thing and Evan Yes-Yes."

for now Mûg-Lûg must be cautious and not risk his whisker's stupidly, a plan was needed, step one the plan of attack, step two the attack and finally step three the celebrations

as he pondered his position another female Man-Thing Spoke up and spoke of strange game's

"Maybe. But I don't know anything about that." Mutters Fluffington the Mighty. Her belly fur is somehow even softer than the rest of her fur, especially on the stark white fluff around her neck. The Eevee wags her tail, it lightly thumps against Double Trouble.

Evan

Price leaned back against the elevator wall, standing in the corner opposite the buttons. He looked to Evan and Mûg-Lûg, the former attempting to calm down the latter. "Kid's right," he said to the rat, "you've got to keep your cool. Whoever's watching us, playing with us like pieces, is gonna to have something outside these doors," his thumb points to the elevator doors. "This room is taking us there. We're gonna to have to deal with it, whatever it may be. Only thing we can do right now, and by extension the thing you should be doing, is to not get riled up over it. Right?"

Evan looked up as someone uh... someone else approached. He did look much older... Evan just stared up at him, like a child stares at you in the grocery store line...

"...... who the fuck are you.."

"Does anyone know about tabletop roleplaying games? I may be wrong, but it seems very likely that we're going to be characters in one of them."

Valentine removed her hair tie and brushed it with her fingers, letting it all down, before proceeding to tie it back up.

Still staring at this man who had approached the two, Evan was also listening as Mûg-Lûg continued to ramble nonsensically, in response to some... uh... girl. WHO... reminded Evan of a certain mildly despised snake woman.. but that's a story for another time.

".... uh... from what I remember it's just play pretend for people who are too old to actually do it."

Wow. Harsh. And also rather ironic.

"I just don't know how I would never have heard of a 'Dialga'." Double lightly wrapped their fingers around Fluffington's tail, then stroked. "I can't help but wonder if there is something we all have in common, or if this cast was called at pure random."

”This is so borrrrrrinnnnng!”

”And suspenseful! How can something be both boring and suspenseful at the same time!”

She is banging her head on the wall, bored.

"Oh, I can agree with that!" Double cooed. "I'm the best actor this side of the first Changeling! And you must be extraordinary, too, to withstand the wrath of gods."

Then the two welcomed a "Supergirl" into their little circle. "I know, darling. I should be on a stage by now." Double crowed, impatiently thumping their tail. "If this is their idea of a 'game', then I'm quitting, and then giving them a piece of my mind!...Oh, but isn't she charming?" Double handed Fluffington to Supergirl. "Yes, we are very captivated by your softness and innocence."

Valentine

Thinking about what Supergirl and Double said, they might be in a live game where they could die, and D&D seemed to be the most popular one. The ninja nurse thought about what each one of them said, until Evan said a few words that Valentine wanted to correct. "I don't think anyone is too old to play role-playing games. Tabletops are pretty fun when you try them out. It brings people together, and that's the good part about it." She proceeded to look over at Evan, analyzing him. His clothes reminded her of a survivor in some apocalypse with her gas mask, probably from something that happened in his world.

[Riven]

You have no idea how long you've been on this seemingly neverending ride of an elevator. It practically has turned into a joke with how fast you are all seemingly going, the meter passing the 1000th to 2000th floor in mere seconds. At last, like a brake check as the elevator stops with enough force to launch your party into the ceiling and through the roof, the room shaking for a bit to stabilize as the speakers let out a satisfying bell ring and an announcement from the automated voice.

[You have reached your destination: Floor Infinite]
​

The doors don't even hesitate to open up wide in one quick motion, an ice cold breeze being let out into the small and cramped compartment as that all too familiar rush of wind practically throws you all out of the container onto the ground on your faces. The sounds of laughter and chuckles being heard a few feet away in front of you as the lights of the elevator are all that illuminates that little spot you all lay before it, before the doors shut to leave you in the red and yellow lights of a cigar lounge with now a new beat being heard around the vicinity.

The audiences' voices can now be recognized as they follow the direction towards a table with a strange crew of people sitting around a round table with various snacks on the dining device, all looking towards the party with smiles and laughs.

"Oh! You bozos are finally here!?! About time! I was about to get bored!"



"Oh shut up you.. *burp*.. you.. Triangle! Blame the garbage elevator!"



"Oh Yes fellows! Blame the devices and not the person who made it."



"God, seriously like, I don't know who has the budget to actually get the permissions to use us but, they're about to be mailed one crazy bill!"



"Wait, what do you mean by using us exactly? We're our own people."


​

Among the five of these guys having their own discussions despite you all finally arriving in the room, comes the final member of the group, the host of it all.

"AH YES! GLAD TO HAVE YOU ALL! WELCOME TO THE FUN AND GAMES!"

​

The arrival of this orange and purple floating character makes his way to the table, floating as he begins to make his way of talk. "Ah so yes, I am Mr. Mxyzptlk! And don't your forget it!" The imp snaps his fingers as a clipboard appears out of nowhere in front of him in his hands, the guy clearly running his eyes between the words of the clipboard and you all. "Huh, Thought there would be more of you, but alas, this can work! But yes, welcome to Multiversal Game Night! And say hello to my friends over there!" To which the group of guys at the poker and cigar table stop their discussion momentarily to look over at you all once more with a collective wave and "hello" before returning to their discussion. The mysterious character let's out a cackle as he tosses the clipboard into the abyss and begins to smoke his cigar with a glad grin.

"Basically, we're all just here to have fun! Now, any TRULY necessary questions before we get started?"
​

The imp keeps a smirk before waiting a mere 10 seconds, before suddenly speaking out loud once more. "None? Excellent! Assistant!" Upon him yelling for his "assistant", various bumps and sounds of ows can be heard around the top of the room, most likely in the ceiling as it moves all about the room. "Give him a second, he's still new to this." Mr. Mxyzptlk says with a roll of his eyes as the bumps continue, and the sound of a spring door can be heard over head open up as the sounds of wood and strings tumble to another new character in front of your face, the high pitched voice that gave the warning earlier, easily recognized.

"What do you need sir."

​

"Ah yes, the script!" The imp replies with a snap as he reaches over to the wooden puppet with an open hand, to which the puppet reaches to his back and passes out a massive stack of papers into the smaller man's hand. "There ya go!" "Ah, thank you! Now then. To win and be free, you gotta get relics from different levels, I won't tell you what they are though because, that'll be too easy." Mr. Mxyzptlk reaches into his side pocket with a hand and tosses a deck of cards into the air, the deck shuffling itself as he waves his fingers and launches 11 cards into the air, 1 for each of your mouths, tossing the rest into the air as he pokes around the spread out cards. "Those are your powers and equipment sheet cards, selected and made by some of my assistant's discord friends."

As the imp continues to scratch his chin, he suddenly let's out a loud "A-HA!!!" As he picks out a card with a smirk and looks to the party with a nod. "This card shall do! Now have fun!" The imp let's out another cackle as he throws the card onto the floor, the area disappearing and swirling into a mass of colors before moving from a pitch black surrounding into..

A town unlike any other



The settings seem to be a medieval era with sightings of villagers and knights roaming freely, the entire location of where you were before, nowhere to be seen. You all have your respective ability and equipment cards in your hands and upon holding them up to the air if you so choose to, the cards would disappear in a burst of sparkles as you all feel your powers and abilities return to you, as well as your respective weapons and equipment appearing in your arms.

In your immediate vicinity, a man and a woman can be seen and heard on your left near a pile of corpses as they are seen crying, a knight can be noticed near the gate as he faces the outside of the village with his helmet covering his face, and there is a bar to the right. The entire atmosphere of this place seems very off and depressing. So, what do y'all do.

The doors finally opened, and the casts' situation was confirmed. They were now pawns to a group of strange beings, all of whom having control over the multiverse. "Pleasure to meet you all!" Double bowed, their tail elegantly waving. "I promise to give you all my best if I can just...You know, have my shapeshifting back. An actor is nothing without their wardROOOOOOOOOOOBE!" Nope. Too late. Double was just dropped down into some swirling whirlpool of colors, the others presumably not far behind.

"Well, that was rude." The Etherian grumped, dusting themselves off. "Now, what's this card...?" When they squinted and held their new name card up to the sun, it just dissipated, further annoying them. "Well, isn't this just inconvenient! No respect at all!" Their patience evaporated, they folded their arms and snarled. "Well, the next time I see them, I'm going to-Hey! My shapeshifting is back!" Anger turned to delight mid-threat, because their fingernails had shifted into dangerous claws! "All right! I can enjoy being in eternal servitude to those multiverse gods after all. Check this out!" One by one, Double did an impression of every cast member.
