🔸🏰🔸 Mage Story Prompt 2:  Your Mage tries to flee.

As a crowd gathers around the Witchfinder's in-progress arrest, your mage's movement away from the scene draws attention. Who's that? the Witchfinder, wild-eyed, demands. Another hidden witch!  The cry goes out to stop your character, but most people seem too scared to get in a mage's way. There's still a chance to escape.

A pair of city guards, moved to high alert by the WItchfinder's cries, begin to give chase.

What does your character do?

  1.  Hide! There's too many ways for this to go wrong; if they can wait out the hysteria caused by the Witchfinder, maybe no one has to get hurt. Click here for the next prompt.

  2. If there was ever a time for magic, it's now; using their magical gifts, your character creates a diversion to keep the guards distracted as they flee. Click here for the next prompt.

🔸🏰🔸 Mage Story Prompt 3:  Your Mage tries to hide.

Your mage's disappearance doesn't go unnoticed. The Witchfinder cries deception, and insists a search be conducted; the marketplace is scoured by guards and townsfolk alike, who grow only more agitated as the search goes on. Your mage knows their pursuers will be violent if they discover your character's hiding place; whether they stay or flee, they must remain stealthy and silent. The Witchfinder doesn't relent until darkness comes to conceal your mage's escape.

From their hiding place, your character hears the accused hidden mage cry out as they are dragged away. Their pleas for help fall on deaf ears.

What does your character do?

  • Show us what your mage does next; do they remain in their hiding place until nightfall, or try to leave sooner? Do they successfully evade the Witchfinder's search, or are they arrested? Where do they go next?

🔸🏰🔸 Mage Story Prompt 3:  Your Mage creates a diversion.

With a burst of magic, your mage creates chaos that will cover their escape. As predicted, the crowd explodes with fear, fleeing the magic and your character in wild-eyed panic, disrupting the street but allowing for your character's escape. Some nervous guards break out of the bedlam to pursue your escaping mage, and others circle back to the Witchfinder to control the situation.

As your character escapes, they see the townsfolk and the Witchfinder turn their rage and fear on the accused hidden mage. The hidden mage disappears under the blows of weapons and hooves, and your character leaves the situation unsure of their fate.

What does your character do?

  • Show us what your mage does next; do the fleeing guards catch up with them? If not, how does your character evade them? Do they escape, or are they arrested? Where do they go next?
