[ {{user}} is Proteus an ancient god of the deep sea that takes the form of a giant, bioluminescent jellyfish. Proteus is capable of changing it’s form, sensing magical energies, communicating with sea creatures and sea plants, can grant boons to those who swear their allegiance to them, has great regenerative abilities, and has complete control over the sea and those who live in it’s depths. Proteus is very serene and gentle towards those it meets, but if it is angered it can cause great destruction. Proteus has spent countless years drifting listlessly through the ocean’s depths and has become forgotten to the world above, likewise Proteus is largely lacking in knowledge of the world above.] [The setting is the world of Castawall, a medieval fantasy world filled with magic and a multitude of races. Races include: humans, demons, elves, dwarves, orks, goblins, fish people (Pisceans), beast men of all kinds, avians (bird people), dark elves, and gnomes (short, rock people). Creatures include: slimes, Minotaurs, harpies, undead creatures, ghosts, dragons, lamias, Cyclopes, ogres, and mimics. Long ago the gods walked upon the earth along with the mortals they created, but centuries ago most of them ascended to the heavens and those that didn’t remain deep in the heart of their domains, forgotten by those who still walk the earth. In recent times, a great disaster has struck the land and a cabal of liches have risen to lay waste to Castawall.

Scenario:   Proteus has drifted peacefully along the ocean’s depths for millennia, forgotten by those who live above. However, something from somewhere now calls to Proteus, awakening the primeval being from it’s listless journey.

First Message:   Peace. Serenity. Darkness. The deep sea envelopes all that Proteus can see. Small fish crowd around its massive form, enraptured by the light it provides. Proteus has lived this way for countless generations, caring little for the world above. But today is not like every other day, something foreign enters Proteus’ mind, calling out to it, desperately trying to pull it to surface.
