Posts from Magnus’s RPG empire on the portal. Auto-translated

The bartender brings me a mug of ale, and I give him a silver coin. I take the mug and say:
"It depends on how exactly you want to demoralize him! The Metropolitan is a powerful man, and even the Emperor favors him! And I don't want a high reward to be offered for my head! Tell me more, and then we'll see!"

Grab him and lock him in some cave and leave him there. We'll pay well. You're a rebel, aren't you? Do you want to join the brotherhood of darkness?

"Ah, a good elf!" +10 HP
"For now, I want to rise as a Necromancer, and then we'll see!"

You entered the tavern, where a dark elf approached you and gave you a scroll with instructions. You need to find the secret base of the brotherhood of darkness. It is somewhere on the border between the lands of the dark elves and the dwarves. You must find it and learn about the latest affairs within the brotherhood.


What a task, I thought! But such a mission requires a special solution... I pulled the hood off my face and, climbing onto the table, shouted throughout the tavern: "I am a Necromancer-Harbinger, I am against the emperor and against the reign of Light on Earth (I was bluffing)... I have come to join the brotherhood of darkness! I need to get there immediately! Who will show me the way? I'll pay 30 silver. Who doesn't believe me?" After these words, I take out skeleton bones and throw them on the floor while reciting a spell; the wooden floor of the tavern cracks and a skeleton warrior appears, clad in heavy armor and wielding a rusty two-handed sword!! Anyone who doesn't believe me can try to kill me!!! HA HA HA (Loud devilish laughter)

Wow, what a backside, I thought! But such a task requires a special solution... I took off my hood and climbed onto the table, shouting throughout the tavern, "I am a Necromancer-Harbinger, I am against the emperor and against the reign of Light on Earth (I was bluffing)... I have come to join the Brotherhood of Darkness! I urgently need to get there! Who will show me the way? I'll pay 30 silver. Who doesn't believe me?" After these words, I take out the bones of a skeleton and throw them on the floor, saying the spell, the wooden floor in the tavern cracks and a warrior-skeleton in heavy armor and with a rusty two-handed sword appears!! Who doesn't believe me, let them try to kill me!!! HA HA HA (Loud devilish laugh)

The guards are running towards you. You run away. On the street, a man stops you and invites you to join the Brotherhood of Darkness. Do you agree?

For now, I want to rise as a Necromancer, and then we'll see!"

So, you don't need 700 coppers?

The guards are chasing you. You run away. On the street, a man stops you and invites you to join the brotherhood of darkness. Do you agree?

Hmm... Am I that charming? Alright, I agree, lead the way...

So, you don't need 700 gold?

After thinking for a bit longer, I decided to agree.
"Heal me and tell me where Joe is and where he went!"

After thinking for a bit, I decided to agree.
"Heal me and tell me where Joe is and where he went!"

Here's the potion. And Joe will be in this tavern. This is his favorite tavern. He will stop here. You'll drug him with a sleeping potion and take him to the Cave of Darkness. He gives you a map. There, you need to activate the lever, and the entrance will be blocked. Joe will remain in the cave. Here's your advance payment - 225 copper coins. You'll get the rest later.

Hmm... Am I that cute? Okay, I agree, lead the way.

You go 7 squares.

Here's a potion. And Joe will be at this tavern. It's his favorite tavern. He'll stay here. You'll drug him with a sleeping potion and take him to the Dungeon. He gives you a map. There, you need to activate the lever, and the entrance will be blocked. Joe will stay in the dungeon. Here's an advance payment - 225 copper coins. You'll get the rest later.

"I'm waiting," I say to the person in the cloak.
Then I turn to the bartender: "Bartender! Two more mugs for me!"

I left the imperial city. Suddenly, I see a dragon. I wonder what it's doing here. I ask him who he is and what he needs here.

I don't understand what this person wants. A piece of paper, maybe? Well, it's worth a try. I take off this rogue item and hand it to the person coming out of the gate. The guards stare at me in surprise.

After emptying one of the two mugs, I pour half of the sleeping potion into the empty mug, approach the bartender, and say: "Friend, help me out! Soon, a man in a gray cloak will come here, he looks about 22 years old, with short black hair and gray eyes. He is a special guest at this tavern - a noble servant of the empire. When he arrives, pour ale into this mug and offer it to him! There are 5 silver coins at stake, don't let me down!"
I hand him the mug with the sleeping potion.

Suddenly, Katya spoke. I want to marry you. Andrei Padlych, I agree to everything! Now that you're in town, what will you do?

- What Andrei are you talking about???
I tie her to an axe and say: "Here, sit with it for a while and think about your behavior, and I'll go get my due salary."
Jumping down, I head towards the tavern. There's terrible chaos in the city... the guards are trying, with varying success, to put out fires or control the drunken crowd...
Near the prison, I stop and observe the following scene... a squad of guards stands opposite a large crowd of townspeople... Apparently, not wanting to use force, the Captain is trying to persuade the most sober people in the crowd to go home...
Captain: Citizens, please calm down, I ask you to go home.
One-Toothed Peasant: Where should we go, protector? Those damned Urgash guys came and set fire to everything.
The crowd erupts in dissatisfied shouts! Author, you're awesome! Captain, kill yourself and your horse, bang your head on the parquet! ****!
Captain: Gentlemen, please calm down... There are no demons in the city, what are you talking about! Calm down!
Earless Merchant: No, they're talking about the lying Izabel! And what's this???
He points at me, observing the whole scene with his mouth open.
The Captain clutches his head... "What the hell is Urgash doing here, this scoundrel???"
I walk up to the crowd and, making a sign that "everything is under control, comrades, let's calm down," I turn to the residents.
"Dear Russians, on this momentous day, we all look to the future... But looking to the future, we cannot forget the past! What have we done? What will serve as the foundation for the progressive formation of a new concept of our worldview? Where is the world degrading? Are the guards to blame for the burning houses? Is the beer to blame for your drunkenness? Think about it! Everyone is responsible for their actions, and as one of my monk friends from the Dragon Monastery used to say: "Don't spit in the mirror if you're not happy with your face." So let us be in self-awareness, in the true Yumsian school, and let us not forget the Admonitions of Socrates Al-Safir..."
Limping Shoemaker to a very drunk cat: "What is he saying? I can't seem to make sense of it..."
Cat: "You need to drink more. Who can understand the high words of a philosopher with just half a mug of watered-down orcish grog? And you're not at that level of development yet..."
Suddenly, an empty bottle flies out of the prison window and hits my flask, causing a flash of fire... the explosion throws me back. People scream, demons are coming, the last judgment is here, everyone runs in different directions.
Some attack the guards with their fists, others rush into the prison to free the prisoners so they can enjoy life one last time... others decide to take everything from life in the last moment and start robbing neighboring shops... others, shouting "Demons! Urgash himself has come to us," run in different directions... only fueling and escalating the panic... I'm lying on the pavement next to a mop and an axe... complete chaos all around.

Coming to my senses (brr... no, forget those succubi...), I realize I'm standing... who knows where, actually.
But over there, the grass is still smoldering... *I strain my ears* Oh my god! It's my buddy, Wu-Jin! And judging by the fireworks, that young imp DJ... the one I drank dwarven moonshine with in the "Dark Empire" four years ago... Brr... those were good times... *I run towards them and see...

I slept through the entire free day (+30hp), and in the morning, feeling refreshed, I headed to the docks... where I was already expected.

as I approached the entrance to the Brotherhood, I stopped, and someone came out to meet me...

Here we are, already on our way... It's the second day of our journey... and there's a Gremlin sitting on the mast, shouting: "Island... Island, straight ahead!"... This is my second attempt to take the island... Well, for now, we just need to attract the enemy's attention..." Oh, great shaman Urok-haek, hear me... tell Magnus that we can't hold out for more than 20 minutes, as everything was prepared in secret... only small detachments could pass unnoticed... let him prepare."... "Load the cannons!" - I command.
