With a bright flash of light, everyone felt disoriented. Strange energy fills the air and there is a strange attraction to the energy and various groups approached, through various tunnels in the large dungeon just to meet and see a large glowing portal in the wall. Groups that were once enemies or solitary beings see each other, but their curiosity seemed to have a stronger pull on them.
The magic was swirling, it pulses in strange energy, a robed figure with a skeletal finger, cast a spell and the strange energy was not completely magic and was only slightly magical. It indeed felt like a portal and a curious pack of Jackalwere was the first to step through followed by a vampire and several of its spawn. With a strong fear of no losing out, the creatures and humanoids that were attracted all stepped through into the strange new world.
They stepped into a massacre. There were humans in strange clothing all ripped apart and possibly murdered by the first group of creatures that stepped through. The air had a strange stale smell, not musky like dungeons, but it simply smells different. The rooms were lited by flowing rods and spheres that were not magical.
The lich followed the trail of bodies and exited the building to a shocking view of the horizon where the night sky was lit by many buildings in the distance. The colors were fascinating and strangely non-magical but they felt magical. The lich was confused and intrigued. This was a new world never explored and the lich began walking towards the city. Just to be safe, the lich became invisible and walked along the nicely paved roads, in awe of the uniformity of the sidewalks. The air did not smell fresh and there are not many trees seen. The area was rather built up with tall buildings and bright lights. It was indeed a strange place.
=======================================================================
An old cop looked into the alley where the usual homeless tend to gather and it was strangely quiet. He took out his flashlight and entered, searching for the homeless men and as he went deeper into the alley, he found the group of 6 men, limp on the ground. "Shit..." The old cop muttered and checked on the homeless men and they were lifeless and their bodies cold to touch.
"Backup!" The old cop shouted into the radio. "I found 6 men in the alley behind 355 Main street. Motionless, and no pulse found. I need 6 body bags."
=======================================================================
Various groups passed through the portal into the strange world and began exploring. Orcs, Goblins and other underdark creatures quickly came over and plundered the buildings and did not meet with any resistance. Unarmed and unarmored humans are easy to kill and goblins showed no mercy.
Small groups of orcs entered the projects and there were residents that shot at them, but the orcs were tough and they broke into the houses and continued the massacre. The others that came over did a wait-and-see approach, and followed some of these simple raiding parties just to observe.
The city was in lockdown. The police were dispatched to stop these raiding parties and did not know how to deal with them. Small units engaged the goblins and managed to shoot down several goblins but these raiding parties were relatively big and the units were not contactable and unable to relay the message.
By dawn, dozens of humans were massacred and many of the orcs and goblins fled back to the lab and went back through the portal. Some of the other beings decided to find shelter and remain in this strange world where humans do not wear armor.
