@shylarah don't be put off because there is already a character with similar characteristics as yours! Even if you do something similar, it can turn out to be completely unique and different! It all depends on you!

Let your imagination fly! ^^

Ps: man, such deep backgrounds are appearing... I really feel I should put more work into mine

@13org Yeah, just a bit frustrated that two major points are doubles. Makes me feel very unoriginal. ^.^;; I've always said that it's all in the execution, but that doesn't mean I don't enjoy a diverse cast.

I do understand you, I'm also very picky with originality. I also hate to have a similar character hahaha

@NarcissisticPotato <3 Thank you. And yes. I'm very good at pestering. Pretty sure I just levelled up! ^.~

I believe she either uses dance-related magic, or perhaps the fact that she is a dancer allows her to do other things well talent-wise. ...Though she probably does dance for funds.

Right, benchmarking seems to be a specific game term I hadn't encountered. Just like I wasn't clear on the different types of party roles for MMORPGs. My familiarity with them is YEARS out of date. ...Read a thing from WoW, and it looks like I understand the basics, but what is support vs. utility?

Oh! Questions on mechanics of the VR world:
What happens if someone dies? Can they be ressed? What if they are /not/ ressed? Is there a time limit on this? Do in-game chars need to eat/drink/sleep etc? How true-to-life is pain from injury?

@Gowi by virtual community, I meant the players, and not the characters that are their avatars. You and Narc handled it, thanks.

It's looking like who Cecilly becomes is primarily healer with low combat abilities -- enough to help in a pinch, or get herself out of range. Toying with various things. Kinda like the idea of bladed fans as a weapon, use a fey race or something to compliment agility. Or maybe eventually using wind/fans to fly? Might be able to do some other wind stuff as she levels up. Toying with buffs/debuffs...not sure. Will need to narrow things down. But her initial starting point is healer. And she will definitely yell and curse at people that want heals but are where she can't heal them. <3 "Oh, you wanted healing? Well then why didn't you GET WHERE I COULD HEAL YOUR SORRY BEHIND?!"

Utility is perhaps an archaic term that is lesser known, but in the sense of how I came to be familiar with it I can explain. Utility represents people who orient on enchantment buffs, utility spells, general utility functions such as trap expertise, and so forth. Here is what someone on another forum posted about utility:

Are abilities or spells that are meant to inflict status effects (sometimes multiple) on targets. Think for instance a root combined with increased damage on the target of that root for the duration of the root. Obviously the root wouldn't be unbreakable, and obviously it shouldn't last too long. Perhaps this kind of a root has a certain number of counters that are used when damage is dealt to the rooted creature.

This article may also help.

Utility is broad and more of a descriptor— basically it is archaic because in the context contemporarily it is kind of a moot point since definitions of Support and Utility have kind of merged. Utility is focused on non-combat but still provides use for their companions; such as a regenerative buff to caster stamina or a caster that compliments summons or skills.

Honestly, I’m pretty liberal with what terms people choose to use on their sheets since they are fairly vague outside of the obvious DPS = Damage, Tank = Lure/Pull. A utility can be a debuffer, a controller, a mechanic, a item-focus— it’s broad and has crossover with other classes.

@Gowi I dunno what to put there with rough video game history. I think you even said to leave it blank as it'll be what we make of the game that'll be the history yeah?

@gowi I finally finished up the errors. All it took was some pizza, motivation, and the enter button. I feel like I may have missed one of those though.



Here is all that I changed:


I even included a bit about the katana trope, to justify that its not over powered.

*slams head against the table in the middle of class*

You literally chose the name I was meaning to use for my character, Enyo. Well, you beat me to the punch, you snooze and spend a few days being moody and contemplating turning your life in a whole new direction, leaving all you love and trying again, you lose.

ANYWAY. My character WILL be up tonight, I'm feeling better. If ERIS, and I'm totally reserving that name isn't up tonight, I'll save you guys the trouble and shoot myself. ;_;7
