Interesting idea. When you say "Two days" you mean RL days, correct? Otherwise that doesn't give you a lot of time.

Either way, I'm in!  :D

Diary entry no1:
I have managed to recruit a swordsman and a drunk to help me, hopefully they wont die too soon...
I am headed towards a ruin called "Planescreams" to hunt down some undead

Diary Entry no2:
I have reached planescreams, and fortunately i cant hear any screaming-
-yet.
I can see figures moving in the distance, i cant quite make them out, i am heading towards them...

Diary Entry no3:
Am in a brief respite from the undead hoards. The drunk died, attacked by several zombies. My fellow swordsman is also a bit worse for wear:

I am ok, just a bit tired and one of those skeleton's has managed to bruise my spleen...

unfortunately, that was his last diary entry, the skeletons returned and he stayed to try and protect his friend, but to no avail...

My next adventurer:
An elf of Libaricote called "Nisa Snakesinches"

Entry 1:
I have recruited a fellow bowman to help me slay the nearby goblins...

Entry 2:
On our journey we were ambushed by a cougar, which was swiftly put in its place...
We have arrived at the dark fortress of Menacefroth, what lies inside we wonder.

Entry 3: As we entered the fortress, i opted to skulk in the shadows, my companion however just walked in and opened fire... He was killed very swiftfully and painfully. I am writing this hiding in a dark corner of the castle i have found a stack of coins and a staue which i think must have come from a shrine:

Entry 4:
I have got out of that place of evil, and have a bag of loot. i managed to struggle my way back to civilisation, and have found myself 2 more allies for the next adventure.

Entry 5:
The next goblin fortress i will be visiting is "Poisonpraerie"...

Unfortunately, that fortress was to be Nisa's undoing as he had accouted for the goblins, but failed to notice the troll that climbed the stairs behind him...

I'd like to sign up.

This sounds boring at first, but once the world is filled with dead adventurers, we'll have a lot of fun!

Suggestions:
If you deliberatly kill an adventurer, your session is ignored.
If you are really stupid (e.g. try to slaughter a purple goblin fortress with a naked mid-level adventurer), your session is ignored.
Could you remove the image in the first post or put it underneath the list of players?
Save the files as .png files. They will look better and take up less file space.

I figure maybe the idea should be to try to keep the charsacter alive, but taking on ever more difficult tasks? That way you don't get a bunch of dead nobodies.

there is no need to ignore sessions as a session goes on for a fixed time, and since no-one will be using that adventurer, why would it matter if they died? and as each person will be likely to get through a number of adventurers, you cant really ignore them.

I agree with your ideas Mayday, but sometimes your character will be attacked by something you hadnt counted for: The troll in the goblin Fortress for instance (the first fortress i went to was only populated by goblins)

Alright, downloading now.

EDIT:
The Trials of Nilun Hidedragon, Human Axemen

Day One
I have decided to write down my adventures for those who it might interest. With any hope, it will land myself a name in the history books. That is all I have ever wanted, honestly. To defeat the bonds of this mortal coil and be called a hero for centuries to come. The world needs someone. Minotaurs and goblins run rampant, and the kings hide behind their stone walls. It will be me, and me alone, who saves the world! I have practiced for many months, and now I'm ready to face this world:

   

I decide I will do a favor for the mayor of this town to start my journey. I find him consorting with... drunks! The scum of this world! Regardless, I must go on and talk to the man.

 

"H-hello. My name is... Ni-ni-ni-" I stutter nervously.
"Ni?! Ni?! Get on with it lad!" he yells.
"Nilu Hidedragon! I'm, uh... here to... h-h-help you!"
"Well, thank Armok! The Garnish council has a target they have been begging me to... well, 'dispose' of. An Ettin in a cave called 'Martyrhell'  It's a days travel to the west, you can't miss it."
"How's that?" I question.
"Oh, it's only covered in dead bodies and severed limbs!"

I stare at him, shocked.

"Hehehehe! A little joke lad! We actually haven't sent any of our troops against it. They are all lazy bastards. Look around, maybe you'll find someone who can help ye out!"

I nod, and leave the mead hall. Certainly there is another brave warrior willing to help rid the world of evil?

I just found a brave swordsmen by the name of Pabat. He said he'd be glad to help.

We were just attacked by a lion on our journey outside the town. With one swipe of my axe, I cut its stomach open! Wait... I think I hear another one-


The rest of the journal is empty, its pages soaked through with blood. Nimu's body was found a few feet away from it, his upper body torn to pieces and two dying lions nearby.
