"Alright," Bob addressed the group, "it's time to start killing monsters."
He looked over at the group carefully. They looked ready, armed, and armored.
"Follow me," he said as he walked down the stairs.
Descending the stairs, Bob was pleased to see that the first floor of his Dungeon was almost as he'd left...

Bob walked into Nikki's with the gaming group, along with Kelli following him. Gary looked up from the counter and smiled. "Good morning!" He greeted them enthusiastically, "have you brought me a new batch of freshers?"
"Pretty much," Bob replied, "although they don't speak a word of Thayland, so I'm offering to pay Kel...

Bob walked into the tavern, the gaming group following him like ducklings. It was still busier than he was used to, but it wasn't quite as crowded as it had been when the massive group from Harbordeep had arrived outside the town.
He spotted Bailli sitting at a pair of tables pulled together, with Kelli next to her.

Bob looked at the crowded table where Amanda had taken charge and was running down a checklist of necessities, making sure everyone had what they needed before they left.
Vera's roommate, a quiet girl named Sarah, and Tony's wife, Lakisha, both appeared apprehensive. Apparently, they'd been briefed by their respective l...

Bob ate his lasagna thoughtfully. Jack seemed willing, even eager, to jump in. Tony would go along to pay a perceived debt. He wasn't sure about Vera, as she hadn't given any indication one way or another, while Dave and Amanda had seemed somewhat receptive, if cautious.
A paw gently patted his cheek in conjunction with...

Bob watched as Talima emerged from the bathroom, dressed in slacks and a blouse. Her skin, which had been pale and washed out with dark lines tracking the wrinkles in the skin, was now a consistent caramel color, healthy and unlined.
She looked forty years younger.
"I'm going to open a portal in the bathroom," Bob...

"I did say that I can cure cancer," Bob replied calmly, "one hundred mana crystals," he pulled a handful of crystals from his satchel, "and one hundred seconds."
Bob ended his flight spell, dropping to the floor.
"Lakisha's mother has cancer," Tony said quietly, his eyes intent on Bob's own, "I know you want us to...

Dave winced as he heard a loud crash from his kitchen, followed by Vera's roar of outrage and Jack's frantic apologies.
He steeled his resolve and focused on his notes for the campaign. Thus far, his party had been struggling against the encounters, suffering from a lack of burst damage. Hopefully, Bob would be willing ...

Huron had carefully prepared himself for this meeting.
One of the perks of being the head of the Church was that he was able to request the attention of the King both quickly and easily. One of the drawbacks of being the Head of the Church was that he was the one who had to interact with the King.
Ericka, the Sene...

"Are you ready, babe?" Dave called down the hall as he tugged on his shoes.
It was Friday evening, and they were preparing for their weekly outing to Denny's.
The tradition had started their first year at UCLA, meeting friends for a meal that wasn't the hot dogs and ramen most of their classmates lived off of. Dav...

Bob took a quick look around the park, watching as twilight faded to darkness. He'd looked for cameras but hadn't seen any. Stepping off the sidewalk and walking around a boulder, he opened a portal and fell into his inventory.
Monroe slammed against his legs, nearly knocking him over as almost fifty pounds of kitty exp...

Bob appeared behind the Happy Paws veterinary clinic in Batavia, Illinois.
He looked around quickly and determined that, as he'd suspected, no one was keeping watch on the rather pungent space beside the dumpster.
Bob hurried out from behind the clinic and sat down at the bus stop directly in front of it.
