Don't be suprised if suddenly a blade chops off your head...

How harsh.... PKing is low.

...but if I make my character a higher level that means I'll have to redo my character! And you know, everyone has to start sometime... When I made my character, I thought that more people would be "newbies" hrm. I guess not.

Time to go redo my character, if that would be best for my character/the RP.

Elminster - Yes.
Tenjin - What IHMN typed.
Jessa - Your charater won't level up until you start putting posts in the IC board and she goes into battle. However, "The World" is offline at the moment due to a prbolem causes by Elminster's character.

[Edit]Yes, everyone has to log their characters out. Anyone who hasn't done so be 2:00 PM EST tomorrow, their character will not be saved. The Server will be down for two days. I wanna see what some people's Real Life characters are like, especially the ones that are those RPG-types who have no real lives. And Jessa, you gotta wait for the game to go back up before your character can register, but you can always play her real life.[/Edit]

I was refering to Celes' head, since she is the low level person who can die in a hit or two. For you're guy, it would be several stabs in the gut and/or back.

Does this character look better? She's a bit more experienced now:

"Real Life" Character
Name: Kilee
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Occupation: Student
Bio: Kilee is your average sophmore from the US. She is obsessed with drawing, manga, and she is also a natural when it comes to video games. She has played "The World" regularly for awhile. She enjoys helping other people out, including newbies (but not NooBs) on "The World". She feels like a loner sometimes, having a hard time finding her "niche" in "the World". Other than games, she is a good student, but she probably spends more time goofing off than she should, or else she would be an excellent student.

"The World" Character
Name: Kaori
Gender: Female
Level: 14
Class: Twin Blade
Appearance: She looks like Natsumi, except that her hair is blond and her outfit is red. (see picture I posted earlier for what Natsumi looks like)
Equipment: Weapon: Dante's Blades Armor: Hiking Gear, cougar bandanna
Bio: Kaori has been wandering around "The World" for some time now. She acts as your basic "do gooder", but there's nothing she likes more than to participate in events and 'festivals'. Kaori helps out people, even if it would seem dangerous or foolish to do so. She tries to keep her wits about her with any scams, but even then, she has a bit of a hard time saying no, even when somebody asks her for some money to help them out. She also loves going on quests for rare items and such, hoping to eventually come across the Hyakkidouran eventually.


Is that good, or are her levels too high now? (I can never seem to find the perfect level for her to be on)

It's your character, you can do whatever you wish. But you still need the location of the RL character.

Whoops. I could have sworn I put the location in there. Oh well, I fixed it now. I won't be PKed now will I? (being PKed would not be fun)

You've got nothing to fear from my characters...unless you happen to join up with Solares on an adventure in which Ravioli meets the mage.

You see...my character doesn't like the guy.

PS-So...who's in the general area? How about having the U.S. people all live in the same city?

What happened this time?

2) "A Stupid Mage." Posted by: Schadwe

Damn, this is stupid. I know why they're doing this, some stupid mage did some stupid thing that altered The World's data somehow which must have caused the stupid problem within the game and now we can't play until that stupid problem is fixed because of that stupid mage.

This is just plain stupid.

My char lives in U.S., same city would make it very interesting.

3. "I didn't do anything" Posted by Solares
What could I have possibly done? I'm a seven year old. I don't have the skill to pull off that kinda hack.

Okay, here's the deal. The World is down for two days, forcing you guys to do something with your real life characters. Anyone who doesn't do stuff with their real life character, your character will be "affected by the corruption." Meaning, I'll alter your characters(level drain, class change, equipment change, whatever). This forces you guys to do stuff with real life characters. Give us some insight to the players. That goes for Jessa and Tenjin, too.

Class change would be really weird if the equipment stayed on

4. "Whatever" Posted by Genarli
Whatever, dude. For all we know, you could be saying you're 7. We don't know you're stupid face. Besides, how can you pay for an account if you're only 7?

5. "Parents" posted by Solares.
Obviously my parents pay for it, that's not too far a stretch for ya is it?

Some one point out how a 7 year old can't possibly undesrtand the game, or type that well.

Elminster, did you forget who Solares' "friends" are? Anyway...

Sure, it'd be strange if they had the same equipment on. But remember, any combination of things can happen. So, IHMN, let's see some posts out of you.

Also, I'm reseting the clock so it's a new day for the real characters. Start them wherever you want; in class, at work, wherever. We really need to figure out a "time schedule" for the real characters, though.

5. "E something or other" Posted by Solares.
Hey, I forgot what the abreviations where, but does anyone know what the Admins. are saying about time delay on "The World?"

OOC: I was wondering if maybe we should move the World Forum to the IC thread or its own in order to keep things smooth

I thought about that, but then I figured, for the moderators' sake, just have it here. I mean, what's this board really doing?

And IHMN, it was an IC insult to another character.

[Edit]Tenjin, I just realized something. Your "The World" character doesn't match .Hack's characters. There's no Teal Plate Armor, and the .Hack Long Arms don't look like FFXI's Lancers. For equipment, I recommend(once again) one of GameFAQs.com's equipment guides.[/Edit]

[Edit2]The current day in the RP is Tuesday.[/Edit]

Hey dude, is your chars name Otaku, or Kyle?

Let me guess, I accidently put "Otaku" in one of the sentences of my latest post. Well, if you'll look at my character sheet, you'll have the answer.

So, we all apparently live in the same city and us who go to school go to the same school?

That's for you guys to decide. I left "Location" for country so you guys could be spontanious about what state and city your characters live in. Just, someone was stating it would be cool if everyone was in the same area. So, I threw the sceminar thing out there so whoever wants to be in the same area can be.

Also, I'd like to note that the "time" is advancin too quickly for my tastes. Please, let me set the time, and you guys handle what your characters do at that time. And th current time is 3:20 because Jessa says so, but no more. I meant for "The World" to be down during two of our days, not two of our characters' days.

Take pictures with what? Schools usually don't have cameras unless in them, or anything that can be used as a camera.

Ha, how little you know. My high school had cameras all over the place, except for the bathrooms because it was illegal(though, I sometimes think they had cameras in there, too). But anyway, Kyle is planning to use his own mousedroid like the ones in Star Wars.

Also, the World is back online. But when Mike logs in, he's going to find that Ubica is now Level 15.

Why?

Well, let's see what we learned about Mike. He has friends, he goes to Madison High School, and he likes programming; not much else. On the other hand, Tenjin(at the last possible moment) showed us that Marcus has a steady patrol route, pities the ones patroling main streets, and took concern over a pitiful-looking man. Elminster, while his posts could use a little punch, has showed us that Gary is a pretty scared little kid who likes Sheperd’s Pie, and his life is pretty much based around “The World” like a loser.(Elminster, don’t be trying to make a Real Life Tsukasa, though) Ecurt has shown us Ravioli is a slacker who doesn’t like school much, and would rather spend his time sleeping. darkt0aster’s Scott is a lazy college student with skills a little under par to Kyle, proving that when the programming seminar comes around, Kyle might have some competition. We learned Kilee is another loser who’s entire life is based around “The World” and she accepts it, but she also has girlfriends to talk to. She’s also a slacker. Mark is yet another loser, but when he can’t play “The World” he does stuff with his friends, and they seem to enjoy watching sports; he also likes to practice his music.

IHMN, the real life scenes are important to help shape A) The characters and B) How they’ll probably interact with the other characters.

[Edit]And the seminar is not "tommorow." The programmers received notices about a week or so in advance so they can plan their schedules. When it's seminar time, you'll know through my IC posts.[/Edit]

Or, you know, when we actually interact, that might show how they react with eachother.

I'm not going to write anything big (Or something that requires thought) just for little status checks.

Darn, I made Kilee a loser. She's not that much of a loser. Just after school she likes playing 'The World'. But yep, she is a slacker. ^^

IHMN, then you can take the penalties.

Jessa, I was just basing it on Kilee's comment to herself, "I'm pretty pathetic."

Anyway, the seminar on everyone's mind will probably start(our time) next Friday...which will probably be next Monday for the characters.

why would a musician go to a programmer's seminar?

Hey, it's your character. He can do whatever he wants. I'm just stating for the people partaking in this little story arc, that's when it'll be.

Alright then, I wasn't sure if you expected everyone to show up or not for it.

Mike/Ubica is just going to be power leveling in the Sigma/Omega server for an hour, so until Otaku post that an hour is up Mike/Ubica won't be doing anything.

Also, a discussion thread (One being made I mean)?

You're already typing in it. So, discuss what you want.

Ecurt, just so you know, these are my current abilities:
OrmeAni Kruz (Lvl. 3 Darkness spell)
Wryneck Ch and Ar (I'm don't know what the difference between these two summons is, but they both come with my staff)
*these underneath I am not sure about.
Miu Lei
Duk Lei
Dek Torma
Rig Saem
Rig Gaem

Okay, I posted a links to armor and spells on the first post. If you guys have any questions about anything, read them.

Your links are bad.

Probably has more to do with GameFAQs' anti-hotlinking system than anything else.

IHMN, don't feel forced to play if this RPG doesn't interest you. However, if you are interested, then how about showin us how some of your character's battles are fairing? I mean, Sigma and Omega are like Lvl. 80 range, so I don't know how a Level 15 could fair.

Thanks for letting me in...guess I should wait until after 9:00am to read these things. That'd probably be good.

Real Life:
Name: Daren
Gender: Male
Age: 17
Occupation: Student/Amateur DJ
Bio: As a musical prodigy, Daren has alwas been into the club scene (the only kid at his school to have five fake IDs!), and there he met the people that introduced him to 'The World'. At school, he tends to be fairly social, and can make friends with a lot of people; indeed, the only people at his school who haven't heard of him are the freshmen. However, his good nature usually comes out when it's needed, whenever a friend is in trouble. As far as grades go, he's rarely paying attention in class, which has resulted in several academic probation warnings. Nobody's sure why they haven't kicked him to the curb yet. His stepfather is Japanese, and as such, he speaks it fluently.
Location: USA
(Quick Note: In the Real Life RP, Daren goes to the same high school as Kilee, but doesn't know her personally. Perhaps later he could, up to the person playing her.)

Name: Seraph
Gender: Male
Level: 1
Class: Blademaster
Appearance: Typical Blademaster look; think Orca, except Seraph has blonde hair, and all the body designs are purple, as well as his eyes.
Equipment/Skills: Mizuchi (Revolver, Ap Ganz), Leather Armor (Vak Kruz)
Bio: Seraph is a new character who's not gotten very far yet, as he's continually picked on by PKers. Only one kind soul took any pity on him, giving him a slightly better sword than he had. The World continues to amaze him, though the rumors of people collapsing while playing pique his interest more than slightly...

If anything more is needed, let me know...also, I know I'm new here, but I've got pretty long RP history, so try not to talk down to me too much, not that y'all seem the types to anyway :D

I don't mind you joining, except there's a problem. If you'll read the first post of this thread, it says the Level restriction is now 1 and that all players are now beginners.

Quick wonderment...this will serve as 'The World's forums, as you said...will we do the mail/PM's sent from player to player in the IC thread?

I mean completely NEW players. As it, the real life character just got the game today and is logging in for the first time NEW.

No. The E-mail/PMs can be done using the Board's PM option.

[Edit]But, I'll let you pass for now. However, no more from anyone! From this point on, anyone who clearly has not read the first post will be denied access to join the RP.[/Edit]

Thanks for letting me pass...sorry I'm being such a trouble. Hope I can be worth the trouble with some quality RP. :D

Gotcha. Thanks.

Is there some reason no one's posted in the IC thread for about 24 hours? I kno Ecurt and Elminster are duking it out...and IHMN is on wait...but, everyone else?

[Edit]We're going to keep using the same thread until a mod locks it, okay?[/Edit]

Yea, why isn't anyone else doing something?

Where is everyone? Hope me joining didn't kill the RP... :(

If no one's interested anymore, just tell me so I can get a mod to lock these threads.
