Dames and Dwindling

You Opened your eye's to see Lilian, Jen, Cindy, Zuemy and Astrid all staring at you and all 5 girls giggling as they moved closer to you. "What's going on?" You asked nervously as the girls creeped closer, Zuemy notably stayed back and didn't move any closer.

"Zuemy wanted us all to play a game together," Lilian replied cheerfully.

"She promised it was going to be unforgettable," Jen added with a grin.

"That's right, I spent all night prepping, I just need some mini figures thankfully I have all of you..." Zuemy said as she aimed what looked like a toy sci-fi gun at you and the girls that were now grouped up. Before anybody could react she pulled the trigger and blast of light hit you and the girls, you blacked out to the sound of Zuemy's laugh.

 

When you awoke you found yourself on and endless plane of some sort of fabric. "You said you were going to shrink Blaise!" You heard Lilian say angrily. You looked up to see her staring daggers at Zuemy who was now towering above the two of you with an evil grin on her face. You looked around to see the other girls picking themselves up from the ground around you, Zuemy had shrunk the five of you down to an inch tall and placed you on a playmat on Lilian's table.

"Well I did shrink him didn't I? None of you said anything about not wanting to shrink too, I thought he would get lonely," She said with a grin as she rummaged through her bag.

"you knew she was going to shrink me?" you asked Lilian angrily.

"it was supposed to be funny, I was under the impression I was going to play with you like a game piece," Lilian explained flustered by your attitude.

"That doesn't make it better!" You say but Lilian already turned to face Zuemy again.

"What game requires us all to be small?" Lillian asked as the girls gathered around her.

"We're playing some homebrew Dungeons and Dragons!" Zuemy said excitedly as she started to put sets of dice on the table, Cindy practically squealed with joy. Zuemy blasted the dice with the shrink-ray before carefully giving a set to each of you. "I've already made level 1 characters for each of you so don't worry if you don't know the rules." She said as she pulled out a small stack of papers. "Blaise, you are going to play Harold Marenthorp, a Human Fighter who took up adventuring to pay off your family's debt" She said excitedly showing you a character sheet with a drawing that was clearly you knights armor.

"Harold?" you asked confused as she shrank the paper and gave it to you, However Zuemy completely ignored any sign of you hesitating.

"Lilian, You are playing Nify Axegrinder, a Half-Orc Barbarian who loves to fight anything and everything," Zuemy said showing a character sheet with a picture that was just Lilian photoshopped to be green.

"Sweet," Lilian said excitedly, clearly already over her anger of being shrunk as well.

"Jen, you are Eve Spitfire, a Human Paladin who helps everyone in need." Zuemy showed a character sheet with a drawing that was clearly Jen in oddly revealing armor and fore some reason bigger breasts.

"umm, do I have to wear that?" Jen asked as Zuemy shrank her character sheet and handed to her without any sort of response.

"Cindy, you are Ethel Youngblood, a High Elf Wizard who keeps getting in trouble with her illusion magic and needs to take odd jobs adventuring to keep out of trouble." This character sheet showed a picture of Cindy with elf ears and a witch hat.

"Yes! I got a caster!" Cindy said excitedly unfazed by the nefarious implication of her character.

"Astrid, you are playing Thula, a Wood Elf Ranger who live for the thrill of the hunt and was exiled from her home after a misunderstanding with a forest spirit." This time the character sheet picture was just a photo of Jen with photoshopped Elf ears.

"why is mine the only one that doesn't have a picture of myself?" Astrid asked.

"I didn't have a picture of you, anyways let's get started!" Zuemy said as she started setting up a dungeon with model pieces from her bag.

"Do we have to use our character names?" Astrid asked, you silently nodded in agreement.

"well, most of you are new so I'll let you off the hook if you want to use your real names but don't be surprised if I slowly make things harder for you. Oh, and don't try to fudge your rolls, your dice might be tiny but I'll know." She warned sternly as she set up her DM screen. In minutes she had already set up an expansive dungeon spanning the whole table. With the five of you at about an inch in height the model dungeon walls towered over you so that you couldn't see to the next room like Zuemy could from above. "Alright lets get started, your party finds itself at the opening of the Dungeon that you were hired to clear out by the nearby kingdom. You know it is full of traps and monsters making it difficult for average people to handle. Go ahead and just do what you think your character would do."

"I go home," you reply still upset at being shrunk by surprise.

"don't be a downer Blaise, don't you want to hang out with 5 beautiful girls?" Jen asked with a smile.

"Sorry Blaise but I don't think that decision is in character, Herald needs the money from this job," Zuemy said happily as she peered down at you from behind her DM screen, clearly enjoying all of this.

"alright... I open the door to the dungeon" You say taking a deep breathe and deciding to try and enjoy yourself. You reach out to open the model door in front of you.

"roll me a dex check" Zuemy said happily.

"what? how do I do that?" you asked looking at the dice in your hand.

"roll the 20 sided die and add two" Zuemy instructed.

"8" you said as Zuemy's eyes went wide with excitement.

"You feel a prick in your leg, you accidentally triggered a trap and got hit with a dart from the wall to your left."

"What? This is the entrance aren't traps supposed to be inside of a dungeon?"

"Traps are where I say they are, roll me a Con Save, roll the 20 sided die again and add 3" Zuemy said Maliciously

"5..." you said nervously.

"you feel your body compact in on itself as you shrink a size category smaller," Zuemy said as she quickly aimed the shrink-ray at you and shrank you to half an inch tall. This time you didn't black out, maybe because it wasn't as drastic a change or because you had experienced it before. You looked over to Lilian and the other girls who now towered over you at twice your height and all looked excited to see you so much shorter than them.
