While looking through a lot of the role-plays on this wiki I saw that most of them are neglecting a mechanic, which is core to the Elder Scrolls games… dungeon crawling. This is my first RP so please don’t be to judging.

‘In times of old, when Septims still reigned and Morrowind was unscathed, a powerful evil cursed the land. He wielded the power of the divines themselves through a magical artefact from before the first man or elf came to be. Then a hero of old came and sleighed him and severed the object of its power… or so he thought, for the power was not severed… just weakened. The object was passed from scavenger to merchant, merchant to aristocrat, aristocrat to thief and so on. Eventually it came to a man, who recognised it from the old legends, the mage Vandon Bulkan. Knowing it was to powerful for mortal possession, the mage took the heart into a ruin of a civilization long passed and sealed it away. However, such things are not forgotten or forgiven, as word spread of this object and its hiding place it became every adventures dream to retrieve it. There is no way into the ruin directly anymore but the caves of opportunity run deep by its walls…’

‘We have found a way inside the ruin. By digging through the walls of the nearby caves we can enter. We don’t know what’s down there but it’ll be worth it in the end. Digging starts tomorrow…’
