The characters, having already gotten to know each other on a previous adventure, make their way to the Yawning Portal with a job: collect as many magic items and spell books as possible. They will be paid handsomely a Chultan priest, Obaya Uday. They must descend into the Undermountain.

Since we know eachother, that's gonna save time with Introductions. Meroki is a (self-proclaimed) culinay connoisseur. A tiefling with a pair of bat like wings, navy blue skin tone and horns and golden eyes in his late twenties, trying to dress the best he can to make a good impression on whoever he meets. If you've traveled with him before, you would know he's adept at martial arts and loves to prepare food and mix drinks for his party and potential clientele.
With a backpack loaded to the brim with rations and some tools, he takes out a gold coin from his pouch and hands it over to enter the Undermountain.
"Well, let's get this party started, shall we? I'll go ahead if no one minds", he says with a smile (this dude is clearly underestimating the dangers he will go through in a not so distant future).
Ra’chi looked to Duran and flicked a gold coin at Duran. “Thanks for the drink and the way down.” She looked to others. “Are we using my rope to get down or are we going down some other way?” She asked before walking over to the well and looking into the dark below.

It is not often when a smiling goblin enters a tavern... even one as famous as the Yawning Portal. Sosen knows 'the task' ahead but also knows the task she had been given by the Twilight Cloister... find 'the item' and return it to the Cloister. Anything else was a bonus; all things considered. She was looking forward to this mission since her last had not gone as well. A fresh, new start. New possibilites.
Raising a hand in greeting as she recognized her colleagues seated at a large table, "Okay, perhaps one or two ales before heading down," she thought.
Wiping the foam from her lips, Sosen frowned, "There is a bet? Already? I swear to Selune, if you two get us run out of town again..." A faint smile crosses her lips as she fake stares daggers at the tiefling and the elf.

(OOC: I'll keep role-playing until 8 since I'll be busy after that. And I'm not sure if there's a rule about in what order we respond or rp in since it's technically my second game in a pbp forum. I'll do my best.)
Meroki jumps down first using the rope and as he descends, he'll just smile at his companion’s and signals the dwarf as if to remind him of our bet (though he doesn't really take it seriously).
"Alright, gang. See you at the bottom!"
And then he'll just wait for his team and look around the room for any light sources and pathways.
Scrambling to catch up, Zvedza gathers his gear, pay's his gold and hurries after the others. Midnight blue skin with a dusting of pale, starry looking freckles across the bridge of his nose and cheeks, the fresh-faced looking elf joins the others. "Hope I'm not too late."

(OOC: Perfect. I'll just keep going then if that's alright.)
Meroki will look at Zvedza and grin before saying "You're just in time!" He'll look around looking for Sosen and go off about it's not his fault what happened in the last town they got kicked out of. But he knows it's all in good faith anyways. But now that they're inside the actual dungeon, he'll try to be more focused.
OOC: Before we begin, it is important that you hear the disclaimer for DotMM
THE MAD MAGE OF UNDERMOUNTAIN IS NOT SEEING VISITORS RIGHT NOW. DON’T COME DOWN BECAUSE, UH, WE’RE RENOVATING AND EVERYTHING IS A MESS. YOU WON’T FIND ANY TREASURE, AND THE BUFFET IS CLOSED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. YE GODS, WHERE DID ALL THESE GITHYANKI COME FROM? AS IF THE MIND FLAYERS WEREN’T BAD ENOUGH. WHAT’S THAT? YOU THINK YOU CAN PLUNDER MY HOME AND GET AWAY WITH IT? HA! YOU DON’T HAVE THE EXPERIENCE POINTS.

"Great. I am Zvedza." His delivery a little stiff and formal as he thrusts out a hand once he's climbed down. Not to anyone in particular really, just on offer to the group generally.
OOC: Now for my disclaimer. You will die. Probably multiple times. I'm not going to tell you to "challenge the DM." Running this campaign is challenge enough. It's very combat heavy. And you. Will. Die. There will probably be at least 2 TPKs. This is a classic campaign, and I'm sure you all understood it's difficulty. So, don't hurt me if you die. Next: If you have one light weapon, you can use two weapon fighting. That's all. No. Wait. One more thing. HAVE FUN!!! Let's get started!!!!

A dwarf in the tavern roars with laughter and slams 5 go on the table. 5 gold dragon says the monk dies first!!!

Raising a hand in greeting as she recognized her colleagues seated at a large table, "Okay, perhaps one or two ales before heading down," she thought.
Meroki would just shrug while looking at Ra'chi. He'll gesture at his rope as if to offer it in case you wanna save yours.
As he hears the dwarf in the tavern betting on his demise, he'll respond "Alright, bet! I'll make you eat your words, old man!"
And hands over his rope to Ra'chi.
Wiping the foam from her lips, Sosen frowned, "There is a bet? Already? I swear to Selune, if you two get us run out of town again..." A faint smile crosses her lips as she fake stares daggers at the tiefling and the elf.
It takes one minute to descend into the dungeon.
