Bio
My name is Brett and I am 22 years old with a strong interest in fantasy/scifi roleplays. I am new to this site but not new to roleplaying I have been roleplaying for approximately 6 years now. I am an engineering major in college so I do occasionally get busy but I will always let my fellow RPer(s) know if I cant respond in a timely manner.
Please feel free to friend me or PM if you have any questions or roleplay ideas.

Day 17 Evening

@Tracyarmav
Lucas is quietly eating his meal listening to the conversations carrying on around the inn mostly of a bizarre attack, something about two older men beating up on a couple of younger players. Lucas thought to himself how surprising there was even older gentleman actively taking part in the game but then he considered the implications of such a fight as ludicrous as it was. If in fact some elderly folk even had the capability to fight that sort of game design carries much farther then just playing inside a game... Lucas continues thinking along these thoughts imagining the medical and engineering ramifications of such an implication...
It is while I am embroiled in the middle of my thoughts that I come to the realization that not only am I no longer eating by myself but also that this person is talking to me. Stupid stupid stupid Lucas, you can't afford to get distracted in a game like this! Thankfully Lucas comes to the realization that he is in a safe zone an should therefore have no reason to be worried but that doesn't stop his hand from reaching into his cloak towards the pommel of his blade before relaxing as he realizes the newcomer means no harm... for now.
Lucas nods in the direction of the newcomer his nameplate identifying him as Edgar_Walther, a good strong name, Lucas wonders where the name came from as he responds, "I may be interested." He replies in a voice that is obviously seldom used.
Lucas listens as, Edgar was it?, explains to him about the group wanting to do a dungeon run in the Gorge. He must be quite strong if he thinks he can clear THAT dungeon. Lucas thinks to himself as Edgar explains the usual, fair loot, extra blade, and compensation. I nod politely occasionally so as to appear interested as well as to show my respect for how polite Edgar was being about it. When he is fisnished I briefly consider the proposal... This is a complete stranger, it could be a trap, *eyes Edgar's gear critically and sighs to himself* They want help and they dont realize just how much help they will need the least he can do is join their crusade, and if it is a trap, I will make them rue the day we met.
"Your terms are more then fair, I would be honored to join a quest such as your party's, if they would have me," he says feeling slightly excited yet nervous as it has been so long since he formally worked with anyone.

"Greetings friend, got time for a proposition? Join me for a quick bite and I'll elaborate."

I wanted to read up on the background of everything that was happening and there was some posts that literally had me in tears laughing.

Hey everyone, so I just realized that I never even dated the entrance of my character to the Inn at Bull Run. For sake of my own RP immediate background ignorance that I came to the inn at Day 17 Evening. I did finally just read the entire story up until now I apologize for not doing that before.
Blackpanther you have such a calming style of roleplay that is equivalent to a glass of warm milk before bed.
Zelosse, so structured and yet so passionate with Delcastle well done mate and Dom and the interactions with the elders is just hilarious I instantly thought of Boomy from Avatar.
Tracyamarv it is just entertaining to read your posts with Edgar.
Destiny, your posts both as Cinera and Scarlett are exquisitely detailed and yet show 2 differnet sides it is brilliant and yanked my heartstrings each time.
Pyro, I was really happy to see Saphira re enter the RP though the circumstances made my blood boil it is awesome to see your quirky fun and playful rps again.
Haeo, your arguments and "fights" with Dom had me bust out laughing and the insults, my goodness they were downright creative!. Oh and your portrayal as an archer is well done and very intriguing to read how you handle the situations the game gives you.
Kaabensal, not sure if you are active but listening to your creative use of the somewhat english language gave me stitches i was laughing so hard.
I hope this is not out of line and if there is anyone I missed I apologize there are a lot of you with such skill and various talents I count myself lucky to be roleplaying amongst you.
Thank you all

@Zelosse First Post!! Wahoo!!! *fanfare of trumpets and little box appears at the bottom of the screen* "First Post 10g" *Then another box pops up* "Wallwriter = -100g"
Yes I am sorry for everyone who has the poor misfortune of reading my first post as I wrote it on Word then transferred it to here, double spacing made it look much more pleasant to the eye then how it turned out, I will break it up into paragraphs in time...sorry!!

At The Beginning
As the bright colors faded away they left an aftercolor effect on my vision, if I focused hard enough I could just barely see the vibrant streaks living an afterimage in black and white. I blinked my eyes as they adjusted to the light much faster than the average person. As I process this I realize just how groundbreaking the NerveGear system truly is as the reason I adjust to the light so quickly is because of my slightly larger than normal pupils which allows me to in real life adjust from light to dark and vice versa with just a couple blinks…and the NerveGear reads even that. I am simply astonished and that is only a small fraction of what the Nerve Gear is truly capable of.
Alright well there has to be limits unless NG is using beyond military grade super computers there has to be a limit to the data quantity. As I think this to myself I start to look around and when I really focused in on a specific point, like a blade of grass or limbs on a tree I could see it! It is exactly as I predicted the engine, Cardinal was it?, is simply not capable of rendering data with the same efficiency as our own minds can, so the game has a bit of a focus system in order to save data, while you look over vast terrain, fields and structure the world seems so vast but the resolution was not that high, but if you focus in on a specific point the object becomes almost vividly realistic just enough to be noticed by those that are paying attention. *shakes my head* Alright you are in a videogame, don’t get too excited, even though wow everything looks so real! *Shakes head again resolving to stay focused* Ok you read the starter manual, the print one that was extremely detailed, so first menu diagnostics check. *Pinches two finger together and pulls my hand in a downward motion and like a scene out of one of those scifi animes there appeared the menu signified by a rather pleasant if loud bell tone. *Goes through each of the menu’s making sure I was fully equipped had my first two skills, Piercing, and Precision selected, potions at the top of the items list and any other housekeeping stuff.
Finally, I looked around, it seemed that most people are already out to start playing the game and who can blame them this game is incredible! I run out towards the fields opposite where everyone else went not intentionally just reflexively. To call myself a solo player would be unfair, it is not like I intentionally strive to play by myself, I am just severely shy and quite a bit naïve so I tend to avoid groups of people accomplishing everything I can on my own. I strike out into the fields polygons coming together with a hum to form….boars! hmm well at least they start us off easy as I move in to practice my standard combat moveset on the boar, slashing, blocking, evading, parrying, counterslashing, over and over till finally it bursts in a cloud of polygons and a window pops up before me with loot and exp gained and then I move on to the next boar and so on and so forth till the sun starts heading in the evening direction. I take a brief breather sitting down on a pile of stones, There has got to be a faster way I mean the combat system is smooth alright but there is no power in the swing, it’s almost as if *Ding*.
I literally hear the menu tone go off in my head as I recall the title of the game, Sword Art Online! Duh, Sword Skills *shakes my head in embarrassment glad no one could see the utter look on my face as I stand up determined and approach another boar this time faces in its direction and focusing on it but not moving as I draw my sword bending and twisting slightly drawing the sword parallel to my body as I focus…suddenly I hear a power up sound my blade glows electric blue and I am accelerated forward not as if I was pulled but as if my body knew where to go and how to maximize on maximum traction and operated at max efficiency the landscape briefly blurs past….suddenly I am not moving, there is a window open in front of me as the rush dissipates my body and muscles still feeling like they were on fire as a side effect. I remember hearing the dying bleat of the boar and the crashing sounds of its polygons exploding into data and then….the game changed.
16 Player Levels Later...
“Bulls Run, it has been awhile since I have been around so many people…” I say to myself as I walk into town towards the nearest tavern. “Well I still need a place to sleep and some food and drink would be good too.” I walk into the tavern doing my best to appear unnoticeable as I walk up to the NPC Tavern Keep. “Two Spring Waters please and one of those biscuits and a room for the night would be much appreciated.” It takes only a moment before the requested items are on the counter as the Tavern Keep replies in a cheery bright voice “Here you go sir, enjoy your stay.” “thank you” I say politely the expression not necessary for an NPC most would say, but I can’t help myself. Finally, I start to cast my eyes around the tavern examining and studying my surrounding and the people around me with a critical eye...
@Zelosse Thanks Zel, the encouragement is greatly appreciated, it is coming along well...I think
