Nova'Zikei

	Turned out she was also orphan just like you were. Unlike you however she was never taken in by any group and had to survive out here on her own. She ended up seeking refuge in this dungeon whose live she saved by hiding its heart from those who sought to destroy it. In turn it offered her refuge when her home was burned to the ground and her family was slaughtered. Here she lived and scraped by. Eventually teaming up with some bandits whom she grew up with.

She wasn't always alone but when her family was destroyed and she sought to take refuge she was the only one who was abandoned in her family due to being too ugly and sickly at the time. Simply put she just wasn't worth it. The other kids were able to get taken in...she wasn't. So she had to fled her so called refuge and fell in with some bandits who thought she was a boy. while she made her way back to the dungeon. So she ended up here ever since carefully cultivating the dungeon and listening to its teachings. When she got out she would wander the wilderness or mess around with the bandits. Rarely would she go into the towns or cities where she wasn't exactly welcome due to being borne of a infamous breed.

Turned out she was from the hated Darkness in one of their villages. Her home was wrecked during one of the usual wars waged between the forces of light and dark. Her family was simply born on the wrong side.


Us

	You are Avis the adventurer and you just sorta fell in love...with a dungeon keeper of all fucking people.

This was suppose to be your first mission as a newbie team of adventurers from the adventure academy. That place raised you since you were a kid considering you were an orphan you got lucky and managed to earn yourself a slot by the skin of your teeth. Turned out listening to those old coots and the last of your inheritance paid off.

...problem is well there were living expenses you know? And your ways of making money were limited so you...may have uh sorta went out alone. Found a low level area that was suppose to be safe and so you decided to rob a bandit base while they were out. What you weren't expecting was at the end of the low leveled zone was a fucking Death Knight of DOOM waiting for you as the final boss. Turned out to be the Bandit Boss hadn't left this dungeon they set up shop in and the bandit boss was an infamous one with a particularly large bounty for it was the Bandit Boss Bascov.

What was even more unexpected was after the surprisingly easy fight despite the appearances but when the helmet fell off...you saw an equally young if pretty girl who was waiting for you to kill her.

...you couldn't.

Dungeon Notes(your own)
Rank Official(F-) Actual Rank F+

Cave type: Single layer
Level 1 Insect Warren/Spore Caved

Originally a typical cave but somehow it was upgraded and even hybridized. This makes it a very dangerous dungeon despite its extremely low ranking it doesn't even have any fucking goblins, rats, or even bats for fucks sake. With some work it could rank up.

Threats:
Fungi
Insects

Doesn't look like much right? But the damned fungi is hard and the insects come in varied swarms. If underestimated it will kill you or cripple you. Those little bugs are amazing at bypassing defenses and when those spores kick in to weaken you...they aren't as easily to deal with as most debuffs like poisons for instance. Fuck you WISH this dungeon was poison one instead of spore at least then its easier to carry cures. This makes inexperienced parties suffer an awful lot and with those insect swarms even if their ordinary they can be quite lethal.

In all respects this so called dungeon SHOULD be pathetic...but its not. It could even be seen as scarier then even a dungeon of a higher level then itself due to its dirty tricks.

Even Vek admitted to admiring the girl for managing to come up with this stuff despite the dire lack of..well everything. She managed to create a easily undervalued but still very lethal deathtrap with nothing but some bugs and spores in a little cave. Not even magical ones at that...

=====
Boo
=====
Despite being a fucking hulk is disturbing sneakily. Like I am talking imagine big bad psychopath slasher villain he is like that. Just replace knife with ax. He is a big enough dude to have literally cut a man in half with it. Supposedly he has some demon and even giant blood in him.

Despite his appearances he is actually a surprising chill dude. He just sorta likes...killing people and is honest about it. Afterwards its not like they need their stuff still due to them being dead so he takes it.

Boo leads the nearby bandit encampment while the girl stays in her dungeon.

The bandits are basically built for asymmetrical warfare, guerrilla fighting, and ambushes. They suck as at traditional fairish fighting but if allowed to fight dirty they can shine.

If they are able to fight dirty they can a morale bonus but if they are in a 'fair' fight they suffer a morale penalty.

In other words feeling it treasured essences will cause it to upgrade.

"That's the problem will using alien skills and outsider goodies. Sure it may be nice to rip off from but due to the whole differences bit assuming you can even use it chances are it will be a goddamn nightmare to master."
{Random Thoughts} be careful, it may corrupt our soul and turn us into part outsider.

"As for the second item. That is for your shadow skills. Consider it a gesture of goodwill unlike the previous gift which was for the pleasing show of someone who knew death demon arts been awhile since I last seen one and the good stuff at that! Been fucking forever since I seen one of those."

"Ah right almost forgot to tell you what it is for. Its A Shadow of Death's Visage. Weird treasure that but it enables you to catch a glimpse of deaths dealings. Makes it very useful in a deathmatch and seeking improvement in lethal training. Said to be a reaper item if you could believe that piece of bullshit.
