Hell Awaits Part I: Delusions of Savior

Session 1 of our D&D 5e Mini-Campaign. Heavy adult rating, you have been warned! Brimstone. Sulfur. Shit. Death. These are the smells that tickle your nostrils as you begin to awake. Iron bars. Hanging flesh. Buzzing flies. Darkness. These are the sights you’re greeted with as you pry open your burning eyes. Infected wounds. Blackened charred skin. Pounding migraine. Hunger and thirst. Those are the sensations you’re gifted with as your body comes back to life. A day passes. And then a second. The third and the fourth. Or has it only been a few hours? As you sit within your confined cage, barely large enough to stand in, your eyes become accustomed to the darkness. You are not alone. No, there are others. Others like yourself. Above you...beside you...below you. All in their own cages. As your eyes meet one another, you can see that they too are lost, tormented, and confused. They have the same questions that you do: Why are you here? Where is here? Who...are...you…? Something overhead glows brightly, cascading light down the gruesome walls decorated with mutilated torsos, impaled skulls, and goat headed gargoyles vomiting steaming black water. You follow the tendril of light as it crawls along the foundation below to reveal a mass of writhing bodies: twisting and turning, burning and melting, drowning and crying...but never dying.
