[center][b]Loosely Sword Art Online based, with a touch of Ready Player One...[/b] [img=http://media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/86/05/c9/8605c9993343af7d3e5b31566e46c7c3.jpg][/center] [hider=Quick Reference] +Fantasy +Video Game +Based on Book +Adventure +Machines/Robots/Aliens/Fantasy Creatures [/hider] It is 2045 and a new form of gaming has been released. Developed by a man by the name of Miles Standish, it has everything any gamer could ever need. Millions of worlds, all of them available to explore. Only, you have to have money in order to travel to these places. The game itself has it's own economy and travel system. There is no real need to eat or sleep in the game but all products are bought with money, real in-game money. Some players even convert outside money into in-game currency but others can't afford to do so. There is a small group of players that have become friends over the few years that they have played. Some go by simple one letter names and other have more... interesting names they prefer to use. They all meet in a place they call "The Cave" which is similar to a chatroom but it is literally a room that the players hang out in. They keep some of their goods there and plan out missions they want to do. In the RP, one day, while hanging out in The Cave, one of the members turns on the TV to find something rather horrifying. News that just recently, players have been unable to log out of the game. Mortified, they all immediately look for the log out option, only to find that it is gone. Hours later, a message pops up on their internal screens. Miles Standish appears before every player currently in the game and begins to speak to them. This is where your character stands. Watching, as the man that created what has become your life, explains what his plans for you are. [b]"Hello fellow adventurers, assassins, mercenaries, bards, etc etc. I think it's due time that I explain your situation to you. I have a little proposition for all of you."[/b] He begins, his face masked in blackness. [b]"If you can discover the secrets I have placed through the game, then I will give you all of my vast riches and you shall live like a king. However, there is a high price to pay for failing. Die in the game, and you'll find you won't be waking up any time soon. If your family members decide to try and remove you from your game device, you will die. If you attempt to leave the game in anyway, via hacks or other means, you will die."[/b] He continued, turning his head slightly as if looking at something in the distance. [b]"I won't be handing out any clues so... This is all I offer you. Good Luck."[/b] He finished, the screen blipping out as the characters returned to the reality of the situation. In each of their inboxes is a small book icon labeled, [b][i]"Book of Life"[/i][/b] There will be many different worlds, all with varying degrees of difficulty. The RP is still in construction but here are a few of the races and classes that will be available to you. [hider=Very Rough Races and Classes] [Will be fixed up later on, still very WIPsy.] Races: Pholirites An alien race that brought advanced Magitech to the galaxy. They are powerful magic users and engineers, making them exceptional in the use of magitech weapons and additions. They are noticible by their Bicolored eyes. This race gets a bonus to Magic and Repair skills. Skills: Magic Mech Repair Creation Aquians Natives of the planet Aquion, Aquians can change their form between humanoid and aquatic at will. They are renowned as scholars, bards and artists because of their cutting inteligence and intense creativity. Skills: Magic Music Wilderness Movement (Water) Wildborns Originating from the planet Terrestria, Wildborns have an incredibly high adaptation rate. Due to ancient traditions, Wildborns refuse to advance their technology in regards to their own planet, outside of the main city. Instead, the majority of the race lives in tribes outside the city, alongside the animals of the wild. Growing up in pack like this, Wildborns take on physical traits of their tribe's animal. Skills: Melee combat Wilderness Movement Survival Classes: Cyborg Half Man, half Machine. Cyborgs are humanoids that have been modified using Magitech. Cyborgs have access to Hardware equipment items which can modify how they function. In exchange for the abilities given by their Magitech, Cyborgs are vulnerable to EMP and other electrical based attacks, as well as suffering a base penalty to certain activities such as Sneaking and Swimming. Pilot Anybody can hop in a mech or a ship, but only a Pilot knows how to squeeze every bit of power out of their ride. Pilots are the masters of vehicles, and suffer no knowledge penalties no matter what they drive, as well as gaining bonus vehicle abilities. Xenomaster Commander of the untamed. Xenomasters are skilled in trapping, taming and fighting alongside the many diverse variations of alien wildlife. They are skilled in Survival, Wilderness Movement, and Foraging. Mirrage Shifter A kind of magic user who transforms their own body. They can copy animals or creatures they see in the wild, or learn new shapes from books or Trainers. Purist A magic user who uses elemental spells. Pretty basic, but versitile. [/hider] This RP is meant to be done with a small group. 10 players at most each with one character. We simply want to know how many people would be interested and get a feel for it. So, please, comment and give us your thoughts!
