《The Dungeon Chronicles》


 The Begining

    ¡°Ancient legends state that dungeon cores are conscious, but none should believe in that nonsense¡± - The second King of the Middle Kingdom


    I''m a dungeon core, this is my story, starting from the beginning. At the very beginning, there was nothing, just blackness until I Saw a little speck of light, so I moved towards it, and then was born. I was surrounded with little brown specks, I tried to eat one and it made me hungry instead of full, but after I ate It then I instantly knew everything to know about it.


    It knew it was a single particle of mica, I also knew the extremely boring process of how it was formed. I was hungry from eating, no absorbing, that particle of mica so I looked for something to fill me up, I saw a little speck of blue, so I tried to absorb it, it didn''t work. I thought and thought but I couldn''t figure out how to absorb it until I saw two particles smash one of the specks. I tried to make some more particles to smash one, and to my surprise, a few particles appeared out of nowhere and smashed it.

    I felt something gigantic enter my presence. "HELLO" I felt like I would shatter. [Would you please be ALOT quieter?] I asked very sensibly. "Sorry, you''re a lot smaller then I thought you were going to be, this is my first summoning", said the mysterious voice. [Who are you? What do you want from me? Please don''teat me!] I pleaded. "hahaha! I''mnot going to eat you, I''mgoing to help you, I''m your dungeon fairy!" Said the thing that was apparently my dungeon fairy.


    "What is your name young one?" said the dungeonfairy [Name, can I eat it?] I asked hoping it was so. "No, it''s what I should call you. Since you don''thave a name, I''ll call you Mike, becauseyou''re sitting on mica."

 Yeah Im weak, so what?!

    "So, Mike, what''s your status?" said _____ [Status? Whats a status?] I very understandably asked. "Oh yeah, you''re new, just think open status and it will show up." [Open status?]

    [Are my stats good?] I asked, hoping I didn''tdo anything wrong. "You have a pretty ordinary status page," said my unhelpful dungeon fairy. [What does everything mean? Rank? Level? Mana? Stats? Skills? Health?] I asked.


    "Ranks and levels determine how good you are at something, there are 10 levels in each Rank. Thereare 8 ranks, ordered from lowest to highest are; Ultra-noob, Noob, Beginner, Adept, Master, Grandmaster, God, and Ultra-god." "Mana is the thing that makes you full and lets you summon monsters, traps, loot, and shape the world aroundyou." "Health is how much damage you can take before you die."Intelligence determineshow much mana you can hold, and can be improved by becoming smarter." "Wisdom determines how complicatedof things can be absorbed or summoned, and can be improved by learning new things." "Vitalitydetermines how much health you have, and can only be improved through adding stat points to it, at least for you" "Dexteritydetermineshow detailed you can influence things around you without influencing the individualparticles, and can be improved with practice." "Skills are abilitiesyou have, and can be improved through practice." she/he took a big breath


    [Is that all?] I jokingly asked her. "No, your weak, time to summon your first monster" [...],seriously I didn''tknow whetherto be excited about the summoning or to be angry she/he called me weak.[How?] "Think Summons list" [Summons list!]
