Chapter One: Tortures Not Meant For Anyone

I awoke to find myself in a cage in a dungeon. Some weird guy kept ranting about my potential, and how he'd bring it about by torture!

"Please let me go, I have a date with Gandolar Luckyfoot!" I pleaded.

"Not until I get my revenge!"

"What revenge!?"

"None of your concern, Child of Bhaal, it's time for more experiments!"

My eyes widened in horror as I saw what he planned to do next to us. Was he mad!? Obviously he was!

"I introduce you to...Noober!!"

"AAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"

I clawed at my cage in a futile attempt to escape, but no luck. I thought we had lost this guy in Nashkel. Apparently this Irenicus is one crazy mage. Within and hour, I was about to swallow my own tongue to stop the questions! Thankfully, Irenicus was told by a Golem that some intruders were entering the complex. [i]Must be Gandolar, mad our date was ruined,[i] I thought to myself.

Irenicus felt that Noober's talents would be utilized better along side him. As I sat there, thanking Brandobaris for this brief relief, Imoen approached my cage.

"Imoen! How'd ye get free!?" I asked.

"Irenicus forgot to lock the cage."

She freed me and we went and found Minsc. Turns out they killed Dynaheir. She will be missed. I told Minsc I couldn't free him, but he got mad and ripped the cage open! Just when he was about to tear me apart, he changed his mind and thought I planned to make him mad on purpose to free himself! I wasn't going to argue the point...

He mentioned he still had Boo, and Imoen and I didn't want to think of how he hid Boo. Boo has a magic Helmet/Torch now though.

Jaheira was easier to free. We found a key for her cage. Then we all equipped ourselves and searched our prison. What's with all of these people in bottles? Does Irenicus have some weird fetish not worth mentioning?

Some Dwarf we encountered attacked us. We found the Mail of the Dead on him, and some acorns. We planned to cook the acorns later, but some Dryads wanted us to take them to their queen. We agreed, though I'm sure she has plenty of Acorns. After all of that, we entered a room which required a statue we found as the key. Some Djinn wanted a flask, so we got it for him. He had Sarevok's sword on him. If my half-brother were alive, he'd be ranting about how I'm stealing his toys again!

We headed up a level and met a man named Yoshimo. He wanted to join us so we let him, since Khalid was no where to be found. Then...we found Khalid in the next room.

Jaheira vowed vengeance, and I don't blame her. She mentioned quite a few interesting things she'd do to Irenicus when we found him, involving some interesting uses for a spear and his orifices...

Killed a vampire, then a doppleganger, and some more dwarves and thieves.

When we finally get to the surface, Irenicus is there attacking people! Imoen fires Magic Missile, Irenicus kills some wizards, and both get hauled away for using unsanctioned magic. What kind of an ass-backwards city have we landed in!?

Athkatla apparently, according to Jaheira.

The nearest Inn we went to, we encountered a party lead by a dwarf. When we said he shouldn't insult us, he attacked! Thank Silvanus for Jaheira, who had Insect Plague!

We sold some of their items, then I bought myself a Short Sword +2. I miss the Whistling Sword and the Shadow's Blade! WE need to find Immy!
