Now open to the public, the School of Sorcery and Tactics is now accepting gifted minds who would like to learn about the workings of the inner mind and how to survive in the wild.
"Have you heard of this new school," Pandilex asked a stranger.
Slighty off guard, the stranger replies, "It's the best around, I've Heard."
Unfitted to the area, the building stands 4 stories tall, is made of a yellowish concrete, and is covered in water stains as though it has been around for decades. Small barred windows fill the empty face of the building, surrounded by script of a foreign language, possibly spells and wards to protect the compound. Two statues watch the premises on either side of the door, which is made of a strong oak wood and has no handle. Slowly walking to the door, Pandilex notices a small sign on the door.
Only the true of heart may enter the school.
Pandilex pushes slightly on the door, cautious of what may happen. "Welcome welcome, you are Pandilex a presume. We have been waiting for you, not many people are as highly gifted as you in the arts of the mind. Please come sign in, we have a lot to talk about, you must have many questions about us and what we teach here."
"That's why we decided it was finally show ourselves the the community, hopefully we'll be strong enough to put an end to the treachury. I must go now, the stranger you were talking to should be due anytime, he isn't as brave as you in venturing into the new," and with a flash, the desciple dissapears.

Learn how to use Bolt
Many sorcerers and wizards have passed the spell down through their kin, but after I leaned of it, I decided it was time to let the masses know of this powerful spell. Centuries ago a wizard by the name Olclha delve into the reaches of spells and how they worked. Years later and years more intelligent, he decided to try and variate small spells to make them easier to learn or more powerful. Although thought as one of the founding users of the spell shock he actually just derived a powerful spell from it, bolt. For reasons unknown at the time, Olclha decided to abandon the use of the spell and refused to tell all who wanted to know of it, but years of persuasion by a trusted friend releived Olclha of his burden. Olclha taught the spell to his fellow wizard and warned him that although the spell could deal incredible ammounts of damage, it was also very dangerous to use. Two months later, the wizards body was found chard under a large tree; Olclha feeling responsible for the wizards death, was never heard from again. After he left...

Killing Foes Easier: A guide for all your needs

The Secrets of Shock (to get story you must equip the book [would go in weapon spot], the browser then fills with story)
Most beginning wizards, mages, and sorcerers learn the weak spell, shock, when they first start out in their studies of magic, but few ever learn it well enough to manipulate it. Through these people, we have learned new abilities of the mind and been able to strengthen the ones we already have. From this small group of masters a few stand out; Olclha, Adith Elendar, and Mariss Belmer. Although masters of magic, each of these wizards mysteriously dissapeared after teaching their abilities to others. (more...)

Learn how to use Bolt
Many sorcerers and wizards have passed the spell down through their kin, but after I learned of it, I decided it was time to let the masses know of this powerful incantation. Centuries ago a wizard by the name Olclha delved into the depths of spells to learn their true natures and how they worked. Decades older and vastly more intelligent, he decided to attempt to vary the makeup of minor spells to make them simpler to cast or more potent. Although he was thought of as one of the innovators behind the spell commonly known as "shock", he actually devised a powerful derivative: Bolt. For reasons unknown at the time, Olclha decided to abandon the use of the spell and refused to tell all who wanted to know of it, but after years of persuasion, a trusted friend relieved Olchla of his burden. Olclha taught the spell to his fellow wizard but warned him that while the spell had the potential to deal devastating damage to a foe, that same power could be his undoing. Two months later, his friend's charred corpse was found beneath a large tree. Olclha, feeling as though he was responsible for the death, was never heard from again. After he left

You pick up a small book which seems out of place.
The Secret incantations of worldly wizards (to get story you must equip the book [would go in weapon spot], the browser then fills with story)
Most beginning wizards, mages, and sorcerers learn the weak spell "shock" when they begin their studies of magic, but few ever attain enough knowledge and experience to alter it. A gifted few, however, have managed to craft new spells based on the incantations of old. From the efforts of these pioneering mages, we have learned to augment our existing knowledge. Of this elite group, a few masters stand out: Olclha, Adith Elendar, and Mariss Belmer. Although masters of magic, each of these wizards mysteriously disappeared after teaching their abilities to others. Today new mages are learning the spells pioneered by these masters without even knowing they ever existed; taking the past for granted, possibly following the same path as their ancestors. Mages can commonly be seen discharging electricity from their hands, and even more skilled mages have been witnessed throwing fireballs at rabbits and deer. Few know of spells that the almost godly mages used just a few centuries ago. Olclha used a deadly spell, considered the most powerful incantation by the people who have studied it: tagged bolt. With the aid of that powerful spell, Olclha was rumored to have been the fourth survivor of a small village that suffered a catastrophic flood, and was then ransacked by an army of marauding orcs. Few facts are known of the powerful wizard, but when his name is mentioned immaculate rumors surface. Adith Elendar was an alchemist originally, but after years of creating potions, she developed a small potion that attuned her body to a higher plane of existence. On that plane she met a clever race of changelings who called themselves 'fairies'. Through the potion, She was able to interact with these intelligent creatures who had an innate understanding of magical forces, and through her contact with them she found that there were ways to manipulate magic that no one had ever guessed. Through spells that warped the flow of time and her uncanny ability to become nearly invulnerable to physical attacks, Adith became one of the most renowned wizards of her time. Mariss Belmer worked outside of the public eye. After expending vast amounts of effort practicing and refining arcane rituals, she was able to perform superhuman feats such as catching arrows in mid flight, creating illusions that glimmered with false life, pulling objects from empty space, and even resurrecting the dead.

http://www.nightmist.../...ic=920&st=0Was slated to be added by zephie, cant remember why i stopped working on it
There was a city, that not to long ago, men and woman alike traveled to as one of their first journeys. The goblins and spiders barely caused any problems for the travelers, and kept mostly to their own adventures. But lately something has been stirring everything up. Upon entrance, everything calm and beautiful seems to turn into utter chaos. Even the kindest of mocking birds seem to attack anything it see's. A party of new warriors saw their chance to gain much needed experience, and ventured into this area. They battled for days, seen by many travelers who used their paths to get to Penalia. But For a couple weeks, the monsters have been growing stronger, the paths wilder, and the party hasn’t been seen at all.
Stone Path:
Standing before the entrance: Tinder Street: You are standing on the smooth cobbles of Tinder Street. The street continues North and East. To the West is a path. <east is the Church and west it Aritoch Drakespine's clinic>
When you first go onto stone path: You are standing on a path made with small rocks and pebbles. You may enter Nightmist to the east, or you can travel on by going West.
When you enter a square: You are standing on a path of rocks. you may follow the path by going *directions*
Look around: The sky above you seems to dim a bit, as though it's becoming nighttime, although you know it's the middle of the day. Underneath your feet are small pebbles and rocks. You may travel farther onto the Stone Path by going West, or go back by going *direction(s). Nightmist is to your East.
Monsters: Thief <few and set to certain squares>
Traps: none
--------------------
Next area would be Goblin Forest.
When you enter a square: The forest's canopy lets little light in, and its hard to see the path. You can follow the path your on by going *direction(s).
look around (in a square on outer edge of forest): When you were standing outside the forest, it seemed so much more beautiful then what it is now that your in it. Do to the lack of small animals, you fear that somewhere around here, there might be some trouble. You may travel on the path by going *direction(s)*, but you may find it hard because of the lack of light.
look around (area farther in the forest): You can barely see what’s around you do to the thick canopy of the trees, but what you can see you don't like. Twigs are breaking all around you, and you feel as though someone is spying on you. You may follow the path by going *direction(s)*.
Monsters: Mocking Bird, Goblin, Forest Spider, and Garden Spider
Traps: You ran into a tree for 10 points of damage.
--------------------
Dirt Path is next
1st square after forest: You are standing on a path made of dirt. To your East is a beautiful forest. You can travel further on the Dirt Path by going West.
look around: You are standing on a path made of sand and dirt. To your East you hear mocking birds singing from the forest. Farther West you see mountains. You may travel farther onto the path by going west, or go East into the forest.
