Occho was looking at his reflection in the water at the far end of the beach. The short, bald man would occasionally look to his right at all the gathering people. None of them seemed be aware of his presence. He waited for the last of the students to arrive and sighed.

Taking a final glance at his mirrored visage, he grabbed his staff and stood up. He snuck down the beach until the seven students were in plain sight. A few had noticed him; others had not. Those who did notice him seemed to understand that he was not like all the others. He wasn’t clueless.

“May I have your attention?” he asked with a wiser-than-you attitude. When everyone looked up at him, he noticed the true diversity of the group. There was a vampire, a young warrior, an elven sorceress, a demon, an aged warrior, a demonic angel, and an elemental swordsman. It was truly a unique group.

“My name is Occho. Now, this is going to come as a rapid shock, but the seven of you are here to go on a journey. Whether or not you accept this journey is up to you. However, at the end of the journey, you will be rewarded.”

It was obvious that no one had any idea what he was talking about. “He he. I guess that wasn’t a very good explanation, huh? Well, I’m afraid I can’t explain better until tonight. So, let’s all just wait here until then.” Occho could see that no one was extremely enthusiastic about the idea. “Oh, come on. We’ll make it a bonfire.”


OoC - Quite simply, entertain your characters until nightfall. It's good when your characters interact with the characters of others.
