What do you put down?

Male DPS LFG

You tighten the straps of your armor as you wait. You are wearing medium armor with only a few enchantments, the best you can afford. You have protection but you are still light enough to move. Your primary skill lays in getting close and doing a lot of damage very fast. Your two short swords and high mobility let you get close and do damage. For a moment you study yourself in a puddle on the street. A weary face regards you with close-cropped brown hair, a few days of stubble, and a couple of scars from close calls. You look the part of the male warrior archetype you think with a slight smile.

After a moment more three more people pop into existence and you feel the street darken as you prepare to enter the dungeon. What you see concerns you, three more guys all of whom are large brute tanks. They are warring similar armor with clan colors and they start talking as they quickly ignore you. All of them are wearing full plate and carry heavy weapons and in one case a shield. Shrugging as they move ahead of you boasting to each other you hang back waiting for them to engage.

The entrance to the dungeon is pretty standard, once you are inside the building you go down into the basement and find a cave entrance and tunnel. That quickly opens up into a large pretty standard dungeon cave. Dark, few glowing mushrooms, sense of dread and unease it is all pretty standard. The first enemies you encounter are just normal slimes which the tri of tanks basically just walk over. More confident then ever they start moving faster but your sense of unease only grows. The stats about this place and what you are seeing just don't mesh.

You move slowly looking for an ambush. You realize it is an ambush when a rock slide hits all three of the tanks at once making them lose their footing. A squad of orcs comes tearing out from around the corner ahead and looking behind you see another two coming from behind. Leaving the squad for the bricks for brains you move towards the orcs in back and engage them.

You managed to kill both but not before they get a couple of good licks in. You are breathing heavily as you turn and see the tanks still struggling with a few last orcs. You quickly move to assist and kill two more orcs before it is over. The three tanks lose like dented tin cans by the end of it and they move slower but still much to fast for your liking. They get ambushed two more times although the third time you help them get the drop on the ambushers.

Just when you think you have it together things change again. You move into a new area and plants are everywhere. You hear something as you trail behind the group. Looking forward you see one of the tanks splitting off from the group. You call out but he doesn't react and his friends don't notice. Running you hear a sound like metal breaking and you break into a clearing. You see the idiot in the arms of a beautiful woman inside a flower with a massive vine stabbing into his back. Before you can even draw your swords they are both gone in a flurry of a moment back into the thick garden.

What follows is a lot of plat monsters, some of whom look disturbingly like beautiful women inside plants. The garden only grows more exotic as you get deeper and you can swear some of the vines look a bit.... well they look like dicks to be blunt. The two tanks roll into the boss room without you and as you get there you see one desperately fighting off plant people and the other pretty clearly being lured to his death by a plant woman. This one didn't need the vines to break his armor though, she was much larger and much stronger. She simply broke his armor apart with her hands and you heard her say "That's better now come here" as she pulled him into the flower and disappeared into the floor.

You managed to save the last tank as you cut through plant monsters but by the time you did your health and stamina were both desperately low. That is of course when the plant woman returned as the flower bloomed in the middle of the boss arena again. She strode completely naked towards you as more plant people crawled out of the ground. "Now that feels better, why don't the two of you join me for some fun. Your friends are already enjoying their transformation..." She said with a smile. You didn't say anything but the tank decided it was a great time to charge in alone. You saw him try and headbutt the woman but you had to look away to deal with the mobs. As you finished the last one off you saw the last tank held in place as the plant woman kissed him deeply. With a final thunk, he hit the ground as a vine pulled him into the flower.

"Now it's just us so how about.." She said before you threw a knife into her chest. She looked angry and charged at you so you threw more knives into her. "You are beautiful, but I didn't come this far to lose," I said as she collapsed at my feet bleeding. "Then have your reward," She said in a wheeze. "And may you find peace," I say ending her life with a quick cut before she could suffer.

I looked around breathing hard and I saw the flower pull itself down into the ground as a stairway was revealed below it.

What's next?
