Rumors have been spreading of an illegal fighting ring somewhere within the city, however after extensive searching the best the cities guards have come up with is that the location lies somewhere within the slums. They need someone unknown to infiltrate this fighting ring and disclose it’s location to them so they can shut it down, saving lives.

You manage to uncover the fact that the fighting ring changes locations frequently to many abandoned buildings around the city and obtain the current location from a shady peasant. However upon arrive at the location the building is empty and you’re ambushed soon after and knocked unconscious.

You awake within the real arena with crowds of people cheering from the stands. A large man standing above you on a platform explains that he’s taken men and women from the streets who had nothing and gave them at chance at earning wealth and glory. He’s forced no one to fight who didn’t want to and you and your puppet masters want to take away their freedom to choose for themselves.

He tells you he likes you, that you’re a fighter and he wants to see you fight tonight for the crowd, if you do he’ll let you go and that’ll be that. However he warns you that the fights won’t stop until his body is dead and cold, no matter what you tell the puppet masters, by the time they come to clear this place out everyone will be gone.

LUKE: The founder of Seafoot Games, Luke's been making maps and RPG games since he was a child, and spent over a decade creating his own game systems from scratch to play with his brothers. That was before he discovered other TTRPGs existed. Now, he paints the realistic grimdark fantasy battlemaps we're known for, helps write adventures as needed, and spends his free time printing and painting 3D minis, as well as working on his forever in-development TTRPG system.

BEB: Luke's wife, Beb's been writing, painting, and graphically designing things her whole life. She published her first book when she was 20, alongside a handful of sci-fi short stories, and was responsible for writing almost all of our adventures until mid 2022 when Steve joined the team. Now she mostly creates the outlines for the adventurer's guides with Luke, graphically designs documents, handles the bookkeeping (or as she likes to call it, bureaucrat wrangling), and manages the website—but she is slowly delegating these responsibilities, so she can focus on raising her and Luke's beautiful son.
