Jask is quick-witted, always ready with a retort, and very distrustful. He is also a criminal. You are his new guide, body guard, and parole officer as Jask is to serve out his sentence through a new program: dangerous and skilled prisoners are selected for missions ranging from dangerous to deadly in place of law abiding public servants. You are to accompany Jask to make sure he serves out his sentence by dispatching the evil inhuman sorceress that has set up shop the territory over. If all else fails, it is your responsibility to appease her, using the prisoner as oblation however needs be.... it might be best to keep that last detail to yourself for the time being.....

You are lost in the woods When you come across the ruins of a lost city. It is littered with weapons and armor, but while the ruins are decrepit the armor and weapons shine. you make your way to a castle like cathedral when you notice you are being watched a Cardinal bird.

You live in a post_apocolyptic Shantytown. you are aware of your neighbors, but it is every man for himself out here. your clean water rations are drying up. But this morning you notice a stanger in an oddly clean suit conversing with people in town.

They drag you out of the tower, slap some traveling gear on you and say "This is how you will repay your debt to society!" And yet, THIS is the guide AND guard they give you? If this quest is so important, why are the details so secret and the party so... small?

You are a geologist exploring the canadian wilderness alone. There have been more frequent earthquakes in this area and some landslides have exposed interesting bedrock.
