Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Session 0 - Character creation.

"I will cast Mana blast on the goblin" said Cole as he pointed at the miniature goblin placed on the table. "Roll the dice then" spoke the voice behind the cloak of card with the image of a zombie infested crypt on the back. Cole looked down at the 20 sided dice in front of him and lifted it up before throwing it down on the table, the dice clattered and bounced into the tray beside him, numbers spinning up, down left and right until it slowly came to a stop, landing on a 14. Cole looked at the dice and quietly cheered to himself "with my plus 3 modifier to power that makes that roll a 17, time to roll damage!". "Not so fast Cole" spoke the shadowy voice from beyond the veil "this goblin has a hit rating of 18, it is wearing shadow armour". "Shadow armour? But only the demonic emperor can wield that!" Cole exclaimed before looking back at the miniature "wait, that tattoo on the goblin, he was the demonic emperor the entire time?". Suddenly the veiled breath spoke once again "Yes, and you are too late to stop him now!" looking down at the dice the two of them only saw a bright light, a flash of colour filling the room. "Dunge, what is happening? I didn't think these dice could do that!" winced Cole as wind erupted from the table, paper, pens, dice and miniatures flying everywhere until in an instant, silence.

Some time later Cole awoke to the sound of Dunges voice "Cole can you hear me? Cole!". Rubbing his head Cole opened his eyes and looked around. He wasn't in Dunges gaming room anymore, he was outside? In the middle of a flowery meadow? "Thank the gods Cole, you are ok!" Cole could hear Dunge but he couldn't see him, "Dunge? Where are you? And why am i here?" asked Cole, "this looks nothing like our country"

Dunge leaned back in his chair and explained "i am in a small black room, all i have in here is a desk, with some kind of magical map where i can see everything going on with you, all the Crypt source books and expansions, my Crypt keeper screen and some dice."

Flicking through the pages of the bestiary book Dunge noticed something else, a piece of paper rested on the table beside him. It was Coles character sheet, but instead of his character, it was all changed, it gave accurate stats for Cole himself.

"Cole, i have your character sheet here too!" spoke Dunge down to Cole, to which Cole replied asking "you mean for Gorzmeil my Human Gladiator?" Dunge looked back at the sheet, and opened his mouth but no sound would come out, it was a good 10 seconds before he pulled up the courage to say it "no not Gorzmeil, you Cole, this is a character sheet with your abilities on it." Dunge looked down across the sheet to see a note scribbled into the bottom that read

~~~

'your player should have a copy he can access if he says "character sheet" out loud'

~~~

The boy looked back at the map and relayed the information to Cole, and Cole followed the instructions, to which his sheet appeared in his hand.
