Oh damn, that's pretty awesome!

Also I have to agree. Great work on the posts guys, they're highly entertaining.

@Prisk

So for exotic and mystical elements, do we have to choose one of the ones u listed in those sections, or can we create our own element for those categories? I was thinking of Sound or Wind element. Would either of those be okay?

I can add those two. The elements that are listed there are the ones that we use. But, if you have suggestions, I'm always open to hear them. This combat 'system' is very much experimentation as we go.

I've updated the attacks with a few additional ones that everyone knows. I've also experimented with the card layout for player characters. I made one for Alice that has her 'special attack' in it. If you create one for yourself, then I can make a card for your character!

Oh! There are so many elements that could utilized I think. Here are some that might work within the story.

Water - Common
Plant - Exotic
Life - Mystical
Electricity - Exotic
Metal - Exotic
Glass - Exotic
Sand - Exotic
Snow - Exotic
Smoke - Exotic

Also, I would love one of those cards for my character. Just gotta think of a special attack.

Cheers!

Side note, I LOVE how we're all subtly adding to the lore and the world building in our post. Small and big contributions. They all feel natural and as though they had always been a part of the world to begin with.

??? by things I'm not sure about.

Let me know if I missed anything.

Cheers!

Hellhog is slang for motorcyle :3.

Yes lore is epic.

@Aeolian That is amazing! I'll definitely add and maintain that kind of 'lore tidbits' list in the codex. This is exactly how common world-building should progress in the story.

To fill in some of the question marks:
'Call to Arms Alert' is a mandatory rally for all Helston citizens. It's usually for immediate defense of the town.
'General Alert' is not mandatory, but there is reward incentive.

We can also use some of those elements. We already have electricity, but I renamed it to 'arc'. We can use water, metal, and smoke. Glass is similar to crystal. Snow can happen through the ice element. Sand and plant can happen through the earth element. I'm not sure how 'life' would play out. I feel like it's close to Light, which we already have.

@Prisk Is Light used for healing also? That's kind of what I was going for with Life. Healing energies and such.

I've updated the boss card a bit. I found some elemental icons that were nice, and then I abbreviated the attacks.

@Aeolian It could be. Water could have some healing properties as well.

Happy New Years, guys. Hope you spent it well.

Happy New Year, indeed.

I'll get another post in this week. Between today and Friday. I go back to work next week, so then I'm back on the old schedule with off-days being Friday through Sunday.

Should be able to get a post out tomorrow after work.

Happy New Years.

Cheers!

Happy NY roleplayers ;b

I've added an appendix to the codex with all the lore compiled by @Aeolian. Also, nice touch with the font! I like it.

Sorry for the slight delay. I got caught up in video games over the weekend here.

I suppose we can decide together where the party is headed, and who that wishes to take the driver's seat. The three destination options are: Mineral Grove, Dadena City, and Eastbourne.

I might get a post up later tonight or tomorrow.

I can make Korvo drive the carrier if you guys would like. If I had to choose though I'd choose Dadena City cause I like the sound of it :D

Holy. Shit. That post was awesome.

I probably wouldn't have Artemis drive because she doesn't really know the area that well. :p

Wow. I was not expecting the story to turn in that direction.

I'm scared! LOL

@Sync I'm totally fine with Korvo driving to Dadena City. That would actually be a good thing since Luca and his gang are from there and his mother is actually the mayor of Dadena, so that could open up some interesting plot connections.

Also, Happy 1-Month Anniversary(basically) of our RP.

Cheers!
