Chapter 5 - The Tutorial

  Hmmmm, thats a good choice. The in-depth tutorial will probably help me manage my dungeon better, but will most likely put me behind the others since they all seem to know what they are doing.The cursory tutorial will start me off at a similar time to them, but I will probably have to figure out more as I go along.

  I feel pretty confident in my ability to adapt, so I will go with the cursory tutorial.

  I mouse over to the cursory option and click

  Immersive Dungeon Master Manager? Sounds super complicated. Nope.

  I mouse over to the yes option and click.

  I see whoever made this software has a sense of humor

  As I watch the screen a 3D model of the underwater Volcano appears in view. I noticed in the corner of the screen a square button with a door flashing on it. When I clicked on it a window appeared.

  When I moved the mouse to the volcano,an upside down semicircle that looked like an entryway to a cave on a mountain appeared. As I moved the potential opening around I decided that I would put the entryway near the bottom of the volcano to allow growth without worrying to much about hitting the lava. As I clicked the rock of the volcano molded around to form the entryway.

  Another button appeared and began flashing. This button had what looked like a 3D cube that only has the edges colored. I moved the mouse over and clicked it.

  I moved the mouse over to the entrance. From there I clicked and dragged a line the width of the entrance, then moved about 10 ft long and about 10 ft high, same has the height of the entryway. They area that I had mapped out disappeared.

  At this point a flashing button appeared with the shape of a Dungeon Master appeared. So, I clicked it and a Status screen appeared.

  This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.

  Hmm I see that I am set to the Dungeon Master, that's good. Also it looks like there can be multiple entrances to a dungeon, that's good to know as well. Six hundred mana sounds like a lot, but I haven't ever used it before so I'm honestly not sure how much a lot is. It looks like the current mana regenderation is 10 percent per year of the total mana which is simple enough. And current rooms is pretty basic.

  As I close the Status screen, another window pops up.

  Snazzy

  A new button appears to the side of the screen, under the space button.

  Can't have it too easy I suppose.

  I closed the window and another window and button appeared. This button, under the Creature Creation button showed a purple crystal with a green sparkle on the side.

  Finally, the exciting part.

  I eagerly click the button. And some windows appear on the screen.

  Neat, if spartan.

  I see, this way I have enough to start with, and I have abilities to work towards. This keeps getting better and better.

  Leaning forward in the chair.

  It's time to get started.
