First Steps and Shattered Bridges

Setting forward the party found themselves approaching something odd. A lake, in the midst of nowhere, with a single bridge stretching towards the middle where lay a 2 mile-wide... thing. Looking like a cross between an oil rig and a city packed with skyscrapers it sat beneath the looming clouds overhead.

"Monsteropolis" declared a scrawled-upon metal sign at the start of the bridge.

"I believe we have a problem." Declared Sirene as Omega pointed out the crossed-out numbers indicating a population decline from 54,000 to 561.

Deciding to cross the bridge the party drew near their destination only to be assaulted by a powerful opponent. Leaping from the water it blasted Omega off the bridge before the entire party turned to face it.

The pitched battle wrecked the crumbling bridge, sending a chunk of its length plunging into the murky depths. With their opponent determined to see them kept on the island-city, the party fled.

A harried race from lesser robot foes ensued until, finally, the party met a fellow human by the name of Hardleson and was ushered into safety. Overseeing two more robots terrorizing the people gathered at a bar, the party realized they had battled with one of the great Robot Masters of the city of Monsteropolis.

The day drew to a close with the party being taken for a meeting with the mysterious leader of the human underground, The Commander.
