Sisyphus is just an ordinary rock gnome. She's never left her little rock home, never done anything interesting in her twenty years. When she meets the most ragtag, nonsensical group of misfits, could she possibly fit in with her new allies? Could she step out of her new friend's shadows and into the spotlight?
This story is based on a D&D campaign currently being played in my group. The actions of characters other than Sisyphus and major plot points after meeting other characters are not decided by me. That credit goes to my nerd friends, who play the other characters and DM.
