The Epic RPG - The Underground Keenaklha

Lit by dim lanterns that have rusted to a point of almost falling, this section of the cave is very rugged and underdeveloped. No man-made items are in sight, only rock walls and ore deposits. Speaking of ore deposits, why not mine some? You mine 10 Soliditium from the walls. After gathering the ore, you continue onwards into a narrow path. At the end of it lays a large, dark grey slime. It leaps upwards, though it doesn't go very far up, and proceeds to attack you.
Mother Slime Pattern: Jump, Super Jump (20 damage), Crush (15 damage to everyone), Jump, Jump, Jump, Jump Crush, Jump, Jump, Crush, Super Jump. Stats: 100 HP, 2 defense.
The massive gelatinous being vibrates before splitting into... more slimes. Extremely small, they don't seem to pose any threat. Five Crystal Coins and a Lesser Mana Potion (restores 30 mana without using a turn, but can only be used once per turn) also drop from the being, laying in a pile. You collect the items and step over the baby slimes, continuing into a larger room. Slate columns hold up the ceiling, and lanterns enchanted with a blue flame illuminate it. Ahead is a humanoid figure, reading some writings etched into the wall. Something seems familiar...
While walking, you accidentally step on a chunk of goo, making a squishing sound. The being turns around, pointing a long staff at you. The lanterns blaze greater, giving light to who it is - your brother, Tim, who has been consumed by the dark arts.
"So you're finally awake after you got knocked out," he said smugly. "Honestly, I never expected you to even survive. But wow, so awesome, you did. Do you feel your memory coming back to you?" You feel... nothing, really. "Maybe not. But I assure you, we both know what I'm here in this land for: total domination. And it seems like you want to stop me, by slaughtering my minions and snatching items from their corpses. Lemme tell you, you are NOT going to beat me." He chuckled loudly, spinning his bone-embedded, amber-topped staff. "In fact, I'll get rid of you right now. Nothing like disposing of your enemies early." You both shift into an attacking stat, then face in a duel.
Tim Pattern: Wand Wave (30 damage), Crush, Shield (+1 defense for two turns), Flame Imbue (Tim's attacks have a 1/4 chance to inflict two turns of fire for three turns), Dash (23 damage), Jump, Jump, Potion Chug (+25 HP to everyone), Jump, Jump, Crush, Wand Wave, Jump Crush, Jump, Jump, Charge. Stats: 225 HP, 1 defense
You defeat your brother, but don't necessary kill him. He whispers "How?" as he holds his head. An ominous sound omits from him as the room seems to get darker... and then he's gone. Blue sparkles fill the area he was in, falling to the ground softly. His hat (+5 defense, x1.1 damage, and +50 max mana) remains on the floor, the only signal that he was there. After the experience, you're a bit hesitant to pick it up, but you do anyways and store it.
A tunnel is revealed near where he was. Inside is a storage compartment, containing ten Crystal Coins, a glistening mirror, two lesser mana potions, a life crystal, and a jar of some weird... blue goo. You pour out the slime, and it absorbs into your skin, making you feel revitalized. Your max mana has been increased by 50! Your max HP has also increased by 50 from the life crystal. Holding the mirror, you feel... absolutely nothing different happening to you. A bug-infested book sits next to where it was sitting, which you read. One of the only intact pages reads that this mirror will warp you to the last place you were in. Awesome! Putting the loot away, you continue into an ominous room...
