About the adventure
Hey everyone. Welcome the Pit of shadow One Shot. A fun battle royal with a mix of PVE and PVP to decide who is the champion of the pit, and who will be forever lost to the shadows You awake with blurry memories. Whether the last thing you remember is a deal with a devil, a valiant last stand, a walk in the woods, or a mysterious portal, you all find yourselves in the Pit of shadow. And you're the star of tonight's show. A large arena surrounds you. Where the stands would be above the walls is nothing but a sea of shadow, but you'd swear there are thousands watching you from beyond. As you gather your senses taking in the strange sights and creatures, around you a voice booms, “HEELLLLOOOOO one and all and welcome to the greatest gladiatorial spectacle of the year! 8 contestants were brought from across the realms to battle tonight. If any of them can dethrone the champion then their greatest wishes may be granted. Lose, and we’ve always got more room in the stands for more fans.”
