Name: Isabel Scott
Age: 24
Gender: Female
Bio:
In real life, Isabell wasn't really anyone of note. Daddy's perfect little angel. That's what she was supposed to be. Perfect grades, perfect looks, perfect personality. Not to mention rich and fairly popular at school. Of course, such things often come with extremely high expectations not everyone can live up to and sometimes they tend to have negative effects on someone who does try.

Isabel is the daughter of a wealthy businessman who works for the upper echelons of the wealthy, elite, 1% if such a thing ever even existed. She was expected to be an example of a perfect little angel, and for a time she tried desperately to keep that image. All through high school she had perfect grades, kept a perfect track record with her behavior and was fairly popular with her peers. In all, she had a fairly good, easy life growing up if one simply took things as they looked on the surface.

In reality, she was afforded very little time for luxuries, or any sort of 'playtime' such as hanging out with friends, playing video games, or other such things. Instead, she had to focus on keeping her grades top notch lest she get an earful from her father and punished for it. The only source of stress relief and fun she had, was the martial arts lessons her father reluctantly agreed to let her have.

Her life continued as such all up until her senior year of high school, when she finally snapped. She had made a tiny little mistake, and it cost her a prestigious scholarship to some fancy university she doesn't even remember the name of. She told her father off, told him to go find his whore of a girlfriend, and to leave her alone before she stormed out of their penthouse - but not before taking a large chunk of money out of his bank account which she did have legal access too and moved out.

It was then, she discovered Yggsadril, after moving into a small apartment halfway across the globe away from her previous life. Not like she was going to have to really work for the rest of her life, having taken at least 4-million dollars from dear old dad and there was fuck all he could do about it.

She quickly fell in love with the game. It let her release a lot of build of stress and anger in ways she'd never have been able too back in reality. She made a ton of friends in the game, and quickly became known as someone who was both to be feared in the PvP and PvE circles. Not many classes of people could handle her full explosive, quick offensive strategy in single combat. Tanky sorts particularly disliked her since she could dance circles around them and still deal reasonable damage.

Though, oddly enough she was never really one to join any sort of guild despite being friends with members from quite a number. She never really mentioned why, but she comments it would be boring to stay tied down to one guild. At times though, she did help her friends with certain guild matters and temporarily became part of a number of guilds. A sort of mercenary, if you will. While many might question it, those who hired her found her results quite suitable.

She developed a bit of an in game persona as a somewhat eccentric demon noble who was somewhat fickle in nature - someone who is just as likely to help a friend, then to shove them in a puddle of water simply for the lulz.

She never quit the game. She's played all these years, spending more time in it than in real life, only stopping for bathroom breaks and eating. She made a numerous in game friends - much more than she was able to in real life. No one cared about their status or real life inside the game. She could do whatever she wanted. She was crushed when it was announced the game would be ending. A few of her friends that would be leaving early left her with a number of items. She honestly hoped they would be staying for the ending, but more than a few decided to end it early.

...well, it was a good run while it lasted, and it was incredibly fun.

Name: Lady Senna
Appearance:

Long black hair, yellow colored eyes with vertical pupils and a distinct lack of actual clothing are Lady Senna's defining characteristics. Yep, the petite demon is known for wearing almost nothing but a simple, light gown covering her front, with boots and stockings covering her legs, if she's not in her armor. She stands at roughly five foot seven, with horns protruding from her head, and a spaded tail extending from her backside. She has an overall petite and light frame, and most of the time the avatar wears a cocky smirk or somewhat bored expression.

Race: Heteromorphic
Gender: Female
Character Level: 100
Alignment: -50 (Chaotic Neutral)
Racial Class:
Demon of Bloodlust: Lv. 10
Demon Lord: Lv. 5
Succubus: Lv. 10
Other: Lv. 15
Job Class:
Blood Knight: Lv. 15
Berserker: Lv. 10
Knight of Terror: Lv. 5
Other: Lv. 25

Fighting Style:
Hit hard, heavy, and continuously, and do not rest until the foe is defeated. What is defense? Shields and heavy armor engender passivity. On the battlefield, movement and acrobatics will always win out over boys and their silly armor.

Strengths:
Senna built her entire class around one concept: Pure, heavy hitting offense, agility, and stamina. Defense be damned. If you can block, counter, parry, and otherwise ninja your way out of things and can break metal with by crushing it - defense means very, very, little. At first, she blended her actual knowledge of martial arts into her fighting style with light swords - focusing mostly on parry's, counters, and otherwise using her opponents strength against them. Subsequent level ups and class changes, saw the inclusion of flexibility, acrobatics and speed, and a massive increase to physical strength and endurance, as well as knowledge of how to effectively use most weapons - and if they aren't a weapon, she can effectively use them as one. She can, and has, beat someone to death with a shoe before.

As a Demon Lord, she is recognized as a powerful Demon - one who brings about chaos through violence and other means. This makes many, many, humans wary of her no matter what she does to hide it. It is a rare class, only available to a select few that follow the path of violence and bloodlust. One should always keep this in mind while dealing with her. While she appears and for the most part, is amicable and friendly - she can, and will, turn on you at a moments notice if she feels like it. And as a succubus, most people tend to forget this fact rather easily.

As for her classes - being a Blood Knight effectively lets her use her own health as a weapon against the enemy, as well as regenerate health through damaging them with their attacks. As a Berserker, she is capable of dishing out incredibly heavy damage and take massive amounts of punishment before going down. As a Knight of Terror - a rare class that offers passive debuffs towards foes that makes most lower levels flee in terror.

Weaknesses:
The most obvious weakness of Senna's is the incredible lack of defense. Oh, certainly thanks to her class she has a massive pool of health compared to most other classes, but with armor reduction equivalent to light armor she takes the full brunt of any sort of damage dealt.

Additionally, a lot of her more advanced and higher level abilities require a bit of a gamble to use often at the cost of some of her health in hopes of dealing massive damage to the enemy.

As stated above, against small groups of around 3-5, her abilities start lacking and falling behind as she will likely have too many people focusing on her for her abilities to work well enough for her to get off. She typically has to fight more reserved, lest while she's fighting someone, someone comes in and blindsides her.

Likewise, her class is very close-mid range oriented, with only her blood-magic able to reach mid range at around 3 yards away from her. Any mage or archer with decent skills at hitting fast moving targets should be able to easily deal with her if they keep her at a distance. While she might have a few ranged tricks up her sleeve, she's not going to be beating someone in a contest of archery.

Likewise...blood magic isn't really going to work well on undead types, since, y'know, no blood and all. Or at least undead without blood.

Equipment/Abilities Worthy of Note:

Abilities:
Unstoppable Force - If one is running, in the middle of an attack, or otherwise moving, it allows one to shrug off any blows that would otherwise change her momentum and trajectory. The momentum of an arrow, potential blow back force of a spell, etc. It does not prevent damage, just prevents it from changing her movement. Of course, against other impossibly powerful forces this might fall short. Say, against other high-level abilities. Say a spell is designed to blow someone back. If she is moving before the spell is activated, the spell simply won't affect her - but she will take full damage from anything.

Raging Clarity: - Reduces the effects of mental abilities up to by half. Rage drives the berserker, and induces an almost serene trance like state that makes it difficult to influence their mind.

Bloodlust: - A self buff, that increases physical abilities for as long as attacking persists. Basically, the longer she attacks - and hits - the more damage she will overall deal, up to a certain threshold. Ten seconds can be reached before the buff deactivates, and can ultimately nearly double the damage output.

Undying Rage: - If self-buffed with Bloodlust and the ability has reached it's max threshold and the Berserker takes a lethal blow, instead survive and drop HP to 1 but loose Bloodlust.

Vindictive Rage: - If Undying rage has been activated, it allows this skill to be used and the Berserker risks everything on an all or nothing strike. Massive increase to physical damage - if foe is killed, the blood lost from them will heal Senna's wounds. If however, she fails to kill the foe with an attack - she herself will be killed at if no one nearby is able to heal.

Tireless Rage: (Passive) - The berserker feels no pain, no emotion, nothing but the lust of battle. Even when limbs are crippled, body parts maimed, they will fight. In effect, this passive ability allows her to fight at full effectiveness despite any physical debuffs such as a broken limb or other malady.

Vitae Feast - Upon spilling the blood of others, one may restore life and mend their own wounds depending on the amount of blood spilled, and their current health.

Blood Boil - A poison of the blood she may induce on others simply by wounding them with a blood-blade. It causes those of weak constitutions and lower level to explode in a bloody, pulpy mess. Those of higher level that can resist it, will instead face severe internal bleeding and damage. It will likely not kill them, but it should take a good chunk of their health and have old-wounds reopen.

Equipment:
Bloodlust: Bloodlust Isn't exactly what one would expect of a demonic sword. This thin, yet elegant blade was a very rare drop from a Raid Boss. It is said that it was once used by an ancient demon Countess to slaughter hundreds of humans in a mad-frenzy. The blade still retains her horrific lust for blood. The blade is able to use the spilled blood of its owner or others to effectively change into a bloody, cursed weapon of whatever the owner desires. The change is nigh-instantaneous, and can happen mid swing even. It also acts as a channel for magic - only of the blood sort, however. The weapons formed by the blade, are completely magical in nature and can blow right through most non-magical defenses. Is the most common method of inflicting 'blood boil' on targets. Using blood magic she can also artificially extend the blades range.

Sanguine Amulet: The blood red gem that hangs around her neck glows slightly. Simple in name, and in effect. It offers protection to the user against other blood magic, and to a lesser extent other magic. A fearful blood mage that feared that his pupils might turn on him is said to have created it. It forms an ethereal, near invisible shield around the wearer that weakens all incoming magic attacks.

Armor of the nameless Lord: Armor worn by an ancient demon that's name was lost to time. An item that was part of a discontinued event, only attained by a select few who were present for it and completed it. The armor is incredibly light - light enough to even be used by rogues and mages that can't wear heavy armor, but still offers decent protection. It is a great boon to someone who has almost zero natural defense and can't wear heavier armor types. The armor is cool to the touch, and made of grey metal. It offers zero hindrance of movement, and still allows for decent protection from physical attacks.

How a normal human would view me:

If using any sort of disusing spell -



Senna herself, carries an air of seeming sophistication and class around her. People tend to give her a wide berth - if only because they are slightly enthralled with her appearance. As a succubus, that is only natural. That said, she carries a bit of uneasiness with her. A feeling of anxiety seems to become present in those she's near. As if something isn't quite right. Those who spend extended periods of time around her will likely become numb to the effects of this, but it'd be easy to tell if she's around. Many humans wouldn't be all too sure of what to make of her.

Behind the Avatar
Name: Rhona Butler
Age: 30
Gender: Female
Bio: Originally from Ireland, Rhona hasn't had the most active or notable life. If anything, she was so average it was almost funny. She worked a simple desk job as IT support for some phone company or something. She always had a habit of writing and was often how she spent most of her free time. She never really thought of games all that much, if anything she thought they simply were a waste of time. It wasn't until a friend of hers brought her YGGDRASIL did she consider buying it.

She was, in one word, immediately hooked. For someone who liked writing, she quickly got into the RPing scene. She was a casual player at most, but when it came to hardcore role playing and taking the game seriously, she was one of them. She was in fact, one of the founding members of the guild "Phantasmal Forest", a guild strictly for those in the game who at least looked somewhat Fae like, considering her love of them. The guild wasn't exactly the most well known, but they had their moments and were able to at least maintain their own guild. So she continued like this for a number of years.

When the announcement that the servers were shutting down though, she was only one of the few left in her guild. The rest for the most part, had already flown the coop so to speak.

The Avatar
Name: Tea-Tania
Appearance:
Standing at just 4'7, one could easily mistake Tea, or Tania, for a child if they aren't wise to who exactly she is. She has slightly tanned skin, with an overall dainty and immaculately beautiful appearance. She has two insect like wings sprouting from her back, and a head full of brown hair. She has pointed, elfin ears and chocolate colored eyes.

Race: Demihuman, Fae
Gender: Female
Character Level: 100
Alignment: 200 (Neutral-good. Somewhat mischievous, but good natured.)
Racial Class:
- Fey Queen Lvl 5
- Pixie lvl 15
- Fey Sorceress lvl 10
- etc lvl 10

Job Class:
- Natures Advent lvl 5
- Elementalist, Air lvl 10
- Phantasmal Lord lvl 5
- Etc lvl 40

Fighting Style:
Long range tactics, designed to confuse and throw off the enemy with a mix of illusions, wind based magic, and ensnaring them with the forest itself. She is a veritable whirlwind upon the battlefield, able to flit between places easily and use her superior speed to avoid all damage.

As a Fey queen, any fairy type being is inherently swayed from fighting her. Even other humans find her words to be enthralling and nearly unable to be ignored. She seems to carry an enthralling presence similar to that of a succubus, though much less harmful to humans. The Fey Queen class, was only attained by a select few players that had as of yet class ranked into anything else - meaning one had to start on the path fairly early in their lives in YGGSADRIL. The class boasts some of the highest magical defense and offensive abilities in the game. As Fey sorceress, that effect is boosted even further. She has a high affinity for magic of all kinds and boasts impressive magical defensive abilities.

By far, her most dangerous class however, is the 'Phantasmal Lord'. A class solely dedicated to illusions and confusing the foe. She can create entire areas and fake locations if she has need of it. She can affect a persons sense of taste, smell, sight, sound - the five senses are hers to toy with. She can create a number of illusory copies of herself, and even completely make herself invisible. She can create fake creatures to fight, which all parties involved will imagine to be real - wounds and all.

Outside of her illusory abilities however, she is fairly adept with wind based magics, as well as commanding plants and the forests themselves to fight for her.

Strengths:
The obvious strength would be her speed and agility, and the sheer amount of magical affinity she has. Not to mention being able to fly and command the wind, effectively making it so that other flying creatures will be fairly unable to reach her should she ascend unless they overpower her.

She likes to think she's a bit of a strategic and tactical mastermind, but that may be further from the truth than she likes...

Weaknesses:
Physical stats, are not her strong suit. She can't really take a hit that well. A complete lack of defense, really. Weak as a paper plate, physically speaking which is why she built all of her abilities and tactics to mostly fight with confusion and to confound foes from a distance.

Equipment/Abilities Worthy of Note:

Abilities:

-Blessing of the Fae Queen: A unique ability to those given the 'Fae Queen' class. This ability gives one either a temporary or permanent status as 'Ally to the Fae'. Those that receive this blessing will enjoy a lighter body, essentially increasing their agility as well as stamina.

- Wind Step: An ability that effectively allows ones own body to meld with the wind. As such, they can move quickly around the battlefield and effectively avoid most incoming damage near instantly. They can however, only move around three meters. It is difficult to track the wind, is it not?

- Illusory Double: She is able to create absolutely perfect copies of herself, up to five in fact. They are virtually indistinguishable from the real thing. Infused with her massive amounts of mana, They can touch, interact, and otherwise will be perceived by all except the strongest mages to be 100% real. The downside is, they are rather flimsy and will pretty much die in one hit. The illusions do not have any of her magical abilities, but a weak copy of the Starlit Blade is carried with them for attacking and defense, as little damage as they will do.

- Fae Form: She is effectively, able to shrink to the size of a human hand...and maintain all of her magical abilities while doing so. It gives her a massive leg up over melee users unless they have incredibly acute senses and reflexes. She can maintain this form seemingly indefinitely, as it costs very little mana to maintain.

- Natures Advent: Calling upon her power as the fey queen, nature itself seems to obey her. She can, effectively accelerate the growth of plants...and even give plants temporary sentience and life - effectively making them fight for her. The entire forest can and will fight their very enemies should she have need of it.

- Phantasmal Forest of the Fae: Her most powerful ability. She is able to envelop an entire location in an illusory phantasm. Once drawn in, no one will be able to escape. They will wander endlessly through the illusion until they die, decide to leave, or simply give up. Within this illusory space, the illusions she creates will seem entirely real to the victim. Strange creatures will constantly hound those caught, if they are foes.

Those that are sufficiently powerful may be able to realize the entire thing is an illusion, but even so - unless they can make their way to her or have some way to forcefully break the illusion then they will continue to wonder.

Equipment:
-Starlit blade A thin and elegant blade reserved to be used by magic classes. The blue and silver blade is cool to the touch, and is almost impossibly light. It has natural armor penetration, of up to 50% and is able to act as a conduit for magic. It was attained from a rare quest where one could find a meteorite that fell from the heavens and forge a weapon from it. The shiny metal seems to still gleam with starlight.

- Greatwood's Vestments. Supposedly, made from the leaves and bark of an ancient, great tree within a primordial forest. The light, smooth garments were obtained in a quest where one had to kill a curse possessed greatwood. The vestments grants the wearer an affinity for nature magics, boosting them and their control. It gives one high natural poison resistance and is fairly decent protection against magic.

How a normal human would view me:
Most wouldn't be able to see her at all. She likes going around invisible to most people and playing pranks on them. Those who would view her though, would find her to be fairly inhuman. Small, childlike stature and insect like wings sprout from her back marking her as clearly inhuman.

NPC Characters
Name: Alena Gilios
Appearance: Typically, Lena can be found wearing her silver armor and holding onto Fury and Mercy. They were crafted for her, after all in a bit of an RPing sense even if as an NPC she couldn't fully appreciate it until things changed. She has short blond hair, standing at a fairly tall 5'9. She is often mistaken for a male due to her armor, though she was programmed not to really mind.

Yggdrasil/New World: Yggdrasil
Race: Heteromorphic - Dullahan, Elf.
Gender: Female
Character Level: 100]
Alignment: 400, extremely good. Will never do evil deeds knowingly.
Racial Class:
- Dullahan lvl 10
- Blessed Undead lvl 5
- Undead Knight lvl 15

Job Class:
Main:
- Emissary of the Fae lvl 5
- Legendary Aegis lvl 5
- Guardian lvl 10
- Sentinel lvl 10
- Undead Cleric lvl 15
- Misc lvl 25

Fighting Style:
To put simply, Lena was built around impossibly heavy defense. Essentially, she could be described as a walking fortress built solely for defense and the protection of others, with an ability to heal allies. She can give defense buffs to her allies, heal them and otherwise take an extremely heavy amount of punishment. She fights defensively, looking for opening in a foes defense before striking or using one of her stronger skills to deal with the foe.

One might find this a bit contradictory in her skills, considering she is an undead. This would normally be true, if it wasn't for her 'Blessed Undead' status. This status essentially means Lena was blessed by some god or other suitably powerful entity within the game. While it is impossibly to fully restore an undead to life, one can at least give those undead who wish to help others and try a boon to help. Essentially, in effect she is no longer marked as 'undead' by most spells or other abilities save for retaining personal beneficial racial traits and stats, as well as the negative ones, such as a weakness to fire or higher level physical damage nullification.

The 'Emissary of the Fae' status, essentially means she is a friend of any fae or any fairy type creature and can speak with any spirits. While she is a heavily armored knight, the job class actually grants a fairly decent boost to both evasion and speed, as well as fatigue and stamina. An emissary may not be stopped upon their path, and if they have a message of any sort they will deliver it. It is obtained by those who complete a number of quests in the game for the very rare Fey-type creatures.

As a Legendary Aegis, Lena gains impressive defensive abilities and buffs for herself and allies, which is amplified even further by her Sentinel and Guardian classes which offer own unique bonuses to help with her defensive abilities.

As an Undead Cleric, a class unique to blessed undead, Lena has access to basic as well as some higher level healing abilities and buffs.

Strengths:
Alena excels in self buffs for her allies, playing defensively as well as healing them and keeping them going no matter what manner of injuries affect her allies. She can draw foes attention to herself, as a veritable walking bastion of defense and health for her allies and survive greats amount of punishment. She can hit just as hard as most tanks, if not harder thanks to heavy focus on physical stats while neglecting magical stats.

Weaknesses:
Unfortunately, her attack accuracy is lacking. She was built to simply outlast all others and to buff her allies. While she can hit rather hard thanks to her impressive physical strength, she has to play smart and tactfully, especially when dealing with faster opponents. While the Emissary class buffs her agility and stamina, she's not the most agile so most can easily outmaneuver her.

Additionally, she has almost nothing in terms of ranged offensive power. If faced with a mage or archer, turtling behind a shield while advancing forward is the best she can hope for.

Equipment/Abilities Worthy of Note:
Abilities:

- Idomitable resolve: Essentially, whilst standing still or turtling behind a shield the Aegis is able to effectively remain standing no matter what is tossed at them.

- Lifes Aegis: The ability effectively cuts all damage incoming to her and her allies, by half. It lasts for roughly two minutes. Must remain still whilst using it.

- Sorcery Bulwark: As with the Aegis, this effectively cuts incoming magic damage even further. Also lasts roughly for two minutes. Must remain still whilst using it.

- Protection of Faith: Effectively, the ability gives her and her allies the ability to ignore one debuff that will is attempted to be afflicted upon them. Must remain still while using it.

- Focused Mind: A buff that makes her and her allies resistant to all mental effects such as fear or other attempts at controlling them. Must stand still to use.

- Cursed Wellspring of Life: The undead Cleric is able to heal allies, but this is likely her most prominent ability. As an undead, she can use healing, but at the same time it is possible for her to use her undead nature to...change, healing slightly. This is a fountain of life that heals those marked as allies for a certain amount of HP per second. However, those that are not marked as allies will suffer debuffs and a movement penalty.

- Blessing of continued fighting: Once, when HP hits zero she is able to revive herself at 30% health. The Legednary Aegis will not fall, even in death. After doing so, any buffs are lost, but so will any debuffs.

Equipment:
-Fairy Queen's Fury A large sword that was forged alongside its counterpart, Queens Mercy. The blade is your fairly standard holy sword. It is a guild class item that Lena was given for use by the guild. The blade itself is incredibly powerful and sports some fairly powerful functions. Once it was a symbol of the guilds power, along with the shield. Most however, would mistake it for a rather mundane sword in their hands.

However, when wielded by one marked with a title of 'Fae' in either their racial name or job class, the true power of the blade is revealed. It is a powerful item that grants those that wield it a massive boost to their stats - specifically their health and attack power capabilities. The sword has natural armor penetrating power, ignoring a whopping 75% of a foes armor.

-Fairy Queen's Mercy Forged alongside the Queens Fury, this large shield would require a fair feat of strength to use. 'Tower shield' is an apt name for it. For most, it would just be a very heavy hunk of metal that could stop a charging elephant in its tracks.

When used similarly by one of the same titles as Fury, however, its abilities similarly shine. As much as Fury, it is a weapon to be used in battle. In their hands, the shield is almost weightless. The Shield has the ability to nullify any damage that hits it - be it physical or magical. It is even capable of absorbing incoming magic from a threshold and unleashing it as an attack when slammed against something. For example, if it absorbs fire magic it can expel an explosive blast if something is bashed with it. It can also temporarily infuse Fury with the absorbed element for a variety of effects.

Mercy is a bit of a misnomer honestly. Its just an effective weapon as Fury, if not even more dangerous.

-Silver Knights Armor - A silver, if somewhat plain armor that can only be worn and obtained by those of good moral alignment. It is obtained in a rather lengthy and somewhat obscure method mundane sounding quest where one had to track the spirit of a cursed paladin of some god and put him to rest. However, most didn't realize that once you completed the quest you could find his actual body and the armor with a bit of clever reasoning and leg work.

The armor itself acts as heavy armor, nullifying a good portion of physical damage, as well as protecting one against darker magics such as necromancy, blood magic, etc.

How a normal human would view me:



Most humans, would actually find nothing wrong with her despite her undead status. If anything, they would find the dullahan incredibly amicable and trusting. Most wouldn't even be wise that she is an undead, and most magical means of detection would identify her as simply 'Blessed'. Only those of the same level or incredibly powerful beings would identify her as an undead, unless she revealed it herself.

Bio/Lore:
Lena was created by Tea, to be the right hand NPC of her guild, 'Phantasmal Forest'. To put simply, Tea may have gone slightly overboard with both the Lore and history for this particular NPC. She loved writing after all, and may have almost written an entire novel length story for the NPC.

To start with, Lena is described as a young, naive, warrior who has a strong sense of justice but at times, has trouble making the right decisions. She is hesitant to ever use force in a situation unless someone is clearly going to get hurt. She gets along with most people - and has the naive belief that everyone is good at heart. She is an excellent cook, and loves training and pursuing her physical abilities. She can be somewhat serious, but is for the most part good natured and likes people, and talking to them.

is the queens unofficial 'babysitter'

As for the short version of her 'lore' and history -

Once, she was a simply elf that had decided to follow the path of a warrior to protect her home. Unfortunately, a necromancer got their hands on her. For some time, she was a simple zombie, unable to do anything other than follow the necromancers commands. After sometime though, the necromancer was slain and she was left alone. After sometime, the zombie started to regain its mental faculties, if even a little. After regaining her entire mental faculties, she still had a desire to protect those she could, but as an undead it was quite difficult to gain others trust, so she underwent a quest to gain the favor of some holy god. She inevitably succeeded.

Sometime later, she found herself in the employ of the Queen of Fae, the guild 'Phantasmal Forest'.

Name: Jack Goldart
Age:22
Gender: Male
Bio:
Jack is an American Average Joe. Works a 9-5 Construction job in the City of Tampa Florida. During the age of sixteen to eighteen Jack was severely depressed for most of his life, heavily shaping his personality to this day. He lived alone with his Father and at the age of 52 he died of cancer. Living alone and with his Drunk of an aunt occasionally checking in with him since she was now his legal Guardian. After High school he left and began working at his Father's friend's construction company. He made quite a decent living for his age. Able to live alone in a studio Apartment in an alright neighborhood.

About 4 years ago he discovered YGGDRASIL, shortly after Highschool. A old friend recommended it to him and that was his hobby. Usually playing while after work and usually intoxicated. After the initial cost, it was a cheap hobby that he could come and relax in the world. At first at least. Jack found most of his fun in the PVP scene of the game.

Like many when starting off, he got his kicks off easy fights and griefing lower players, taking whatever loot they had and making money out of it. Then shortly after his time in game at just the level 20 he was absolutely stomped by a PVP guild Brique Squadz, they invited him to his ranks due to him "Being more of a hassle then expected" Learning anything and all he could about the dynamics of PVP in YGGDRASIL. Becoming a Top Matched Player in his Guild and a known name in some of the Larger PVP Scene. The combat gave him a rush, which eventually faded away allowing him to think more clearly during fights, but the game seemed less appealing overall.

After about two years into the game, he slowly played less and less. Meeting his future wife Carrion, taking most of his free time away from YGGDRASIL. It had been two months after his Marriage with her until he started coming back to play the game regularly and to his displeasure the game was announced to shut down in just a few short weeks. To honor so many times of fun, he logged just an hour before it was shut down. A move he would later deeply regret.

Name: Spooky Sk3let0nz or Spooky for short
Appearance:
Spooky is a Undead skeleton in medieval chain mail and light plate. His armor is rusted, decayed, and tarnished. Looking as if it was going to fall apart in any given moment. Wrapped in faded green cloth and covered by various arrows sticking out from his legs and sides. His lower jaw is hanging, barley hinged on to his Skull, almost hidden in the shadow of chainmail wrapped around his head. His eye sockets emit a purple flame that grows and shrinks depending in his emotion.
Race: Heteromorphic
Gender: Male
Character Level: 100
Alignment: -100
Racial Class: Undead Knight (15)
Job Class:
Main Class:
-Guardian (15)
-Unholy Knight (15)
-Black Guard (5)
Sub Classes:
-Necromancer (5)
-Other (45)
-Single Brawler(10)


Spooky fighting style was described as a 'Bruiser'. Spooky baits opponents to attack him and uses their damage against themselves.

Strengths:
Years of PVP experience has let Spooky have a taste of every kind of fighting, but his current build is one of his most awarding, due to the nature of actually having to think before a move. A when those moves are made they are incredibly damaging. Tanking heavy damage and then turning that damage against the opponents themselves. When tanking, Spooky is unmoving, a complete bulwark to the opponents that attack him. Shrugging off Super-tier abilities with ease.

Weaknesses:
With the great strength comes a cost. Spooky is incredibly slow. From any movement from just moving along the battlefield to his actual attacks. Fast ranged opponents are his hard counter, if they can apply the damage to break his tank and escape him, their is few things Spooky can do.



Claymore of the Slain - A legendary long sword that's handle reaches Spooky's head. It carries awesome damage, but is extremely heavy and also one of the slowest weapons in all of YGGDRASIL. Usually used as a off hand finisher, by others but is his Primary weapon of choice. Usually it's seen with him dragging it along the floor.

Bastard Sword of the Undead - An average looking sword used by many High level Undead Players for its quick speed and good damage. It is Spooky's secondary weapon and usually seen dug in his back. The sword is only brought to bear when facing an extremely fast opponent, when his slower Claymore has no chance of a hit.

Armor of the Fallen - This epic piece of loot was awarded to Spooky when he won a PVP Raid event with his Guild a few years back. Even when he received it he could not use it until level 100, so it is quite new to even him. The armor looks incredibly unsuspecting of its class, exactly as intended. While it looks like a lower piece of medium armor, it is anything but. The armor is ridiculously heavy and has immense defense in all attributes. Is has all the Undead features of rust and decay with just a little bit of shine in its gauntlets.

Pain and Pleasure - A ring that was found in Spooky's earlier levels in YGGDRASIL. The ring allows the user to quickly switch stats ranking with items, but after a whole minute both the items stats are returned back and reduced by half for 5 minutes. Sometimes it can be the edge he needs when switching his armor's defense rating into the attack rating with his weapon. Although it's rarely used due to the Risk it usually offers.



Soulless - A Undead Knight passive ability. After Spooky is under 50% health can only be effected by one debuff at a time and the debuff last only half as long as it normally should.

Feel No pain The strongest tanking ability in Spooky's arsenal. After lowering down to 75% health he can activate the ability allowing all his damage resistances to be doubled, but at the cost of his movement speed. This ability can only be activated once every 2 minutes.

Damage Siphon - When this ability is activated all damage done to him without his resistance begins to fill a pool for 10 seconds. After the pool has been filled Spooky can activate it at any time to either use the number of damage to heal himself or add to his Phy. Atk stat for 10 seconds. This ability can be used every 30 seconds.

Toss - Spooky can grab a target by the neck and toss them short ranges. Not only inflicting damage, but depending on the Target's health, their is a chance that the target will be stunned for several seconds.

Grave Return/Accession - His bones and armor will fall apart as almost he had died and be quickly absorbed by the ground benefice him. Spooky can travel a short range unhindered and can pop out of the ground fully assembled and deliver a blow. This ability can only be used once every two minutes

Whirlwind - A standard spin attack that allows Spooky to spin with his sword for a single time. A standard close range AOE abulity.

Summon: Skeletal Pawns - A simple summon spell that brings a small group of sword bearing skeletons from the earth. They carry slowing poison on their Blades, making them a bother while still helping Spooky in battle. They have extremely low health and are not too useful.

Summon: Chain Bearers - A summoning spell that opens two holes from the ground, with two skeletons erupting from them. The skeletons bear Demonic chains that wrap around an enemy and hold them in place. They are incredibly weak with only a single HP point, but the sudden pause for the enemy can mean curtains at times.


The average Human would probably quite afraid of Spooky. As he does look like an undead skeleton. Although he will occasionally throw on a full body cloak to hide his face, only exposing his armor's gauntlets and grieves. Meant to be used to hide himself from Player's overview, but works just as good concealing his true form from NPCs.

Age: 30
Gender: Female
Bio: In real life, she is just your run-of-the-mill office lady. Well, perhaps not that run-of-the-mill as she is totally uninterested in the work she is doing. Indeed, all her interest goes to playing Yggdrasil, where she can live out her fantasy of being a cute village girl instead of a boring, boyfriend-less old maid she is in real life. She spent all her time and effort to create such a life, to the point of tailoring her equipment, build, and playstyle to her ideal. She never really bothers to joining any guilds, preferring to go in and out of parties and raids on her whims. Most players will underestimate her with how she looks, but when she demonstrates her hexing abilities, they quickly understand that she is one of the top tier players of Yggdrasil. And so begins the legend of the Wandering Villager, where it's said that her presence will guarantee victory in raids. Some guilds try to recruit her, but she refuses all of them, saying that she prefers to be free on her own. She likes perpetuating the legend after all. One of her most famous accomplishment is taking out an entire guild of PKers without lifting a finger, saving the lives of the newbies they are targeting. They have no idea whatsoever why their bodies suddenly fall down paralyzed all of a sudden.

She also has a farm that she cultivates, creating high level food material that she further cooks into high level meals and drinks that sells quite a lot on the market. This is how she mainly makes her money in the game.

With her now being her own character, she's ready to have her ideal life that she always wants.

Racial Class: Human
Job Class:
Hexer Lv 15
Beast Tamer Lv 10
Cook Lv 15
Farmer Lv 15
Druid Lv 5
Illusionist Lv 10
Fighting Style:
She likes to weaken and immobilize her foes from a distance while her loyal pet takes the frontline. Vs an obviously inferior enemy, she wouldn't even bother with her pet, as she could just hex them until they can't really harm her anymore. It's her favorite pastime of dodging and blocking with her bare hands the sluggish and weak attacks of hexed opponents. She can also create copies of herself or change the surrounding environment with her illusions, further confusing the opponent. She likes teasing and playing with her opponent, so she prefers fighting against weaker opponents.

Strengths:
She's terribly strong vs people who can't dispel her hexes and illusions. The more the battle goes on, the stronger she becomes as her hexes debuff her opponents more and more. She can also confuse and trap her opponents with her illusions, so the hotheaded, gullible, rash, and panicky type will easily be even more disadvantaged with that.

Weaknesses:
She's weak in a straight up combat. Without her hexes and illusions, she's nothing. Sure, there's still her loyal pet, but it's not really that monstrously strong that it can handle everything thrown at it. She's not used to taking damage, so she will try to retreat once she sees that the situation is against her, which a calculating tactician can take advantage of. She's really not a true warrior inside, which suits her just fine since it's not the image she wants to be seen as anyways.

Equipment/Abilities Worthy of Note:
1. The Great Wolf Fenrir
This is her loyal pet, her "guard dog" as she called it. Normally, it looks like an ordinary dog, until she unleashes its true power and it changes to a giant wolf. It has excellent agilty and strength, and its senses is well-toned to the point that it can tell if an attack is aimed at its master, where it would try its best to protect her from it.

Also likes to be petted.

2. Amulet of a Thousand Curse
She wears this amulet underneath her dress, not wanting its unsightly green ruining her cute villager looks. It enhances the effectiveness and the chance of landing for her hexes to double the normal rate. To most folks without an adequate debuff and ailment resistance, it would mean checkmate as she can lock them down 100% with her paralysis hex.

This item takes her so long to get, as it is a terribly rare item. But thankfully, all that effort pays off in the end.

3. Ring of the Deceitful Witch
She wears this ring on her right index finger. It looks just like an ordinary ring. However, it has a powerful ability by allowing her to cast her hexes with merely reciting the spell on her head. So she can have a normal conversation with you, only for you to suddenly fall to dozens fo status effects without you knowing the reason. This works terribly well with her cute and innocent appearance.

4. The Touch of The Black Plague
This ability of her allows her to put all ailments and debuffs at someone as long as she touches them. She can even time it so that the effects aren't active right away.

5. Miasma of The Black Plague
This ability of her allows her to cast a single ailment or debuff to spread to everyone around her in a ten meter radius. Like the above, she can time it so the effect isn't active right away.

How a normal human would view me:
Just an ordinary village girl. Nothing threatening at all.

Behind the Scenes

Name: Emile Forsyth
Age: 37
Gender: Male
Bio: Childhood, such an important part of life, is destined to fade away. Even in his teens, Emile looked back on his younger, more immature self with loathing, but all memories of his early self faded away the year he turned nineteen and, filled with pride in his country, followed in his family's tradition of joining the Royal Navy. He steeled himself like all the others during the long days of training and drills, and when the time came to perform his duty, he went with his former fear squared away into the very corner of his heart. Putting his brains and brawn to use as an engineer in the bowels of the ship to which he was assigned, Emile spent months at sea at a time. Friendship with his comrades came easily, despite the trouble he'd once had socializing with others, and his life seemed like smooth sailing for so long he forgot that his ship was patrolling dangerous waters.

One day, the crew pulled a refugee from a lifeboat. Incoherent and gravely wounded, she babbled on and on about human traffickers, and was admitted to the on-board clinic. When it came, the helicopter attack was unexpected. A patrol cruiser wasn't prepared for aerial bombardment, and somehow the pirates knew just where to hit it. Emile's ship barely rattled off a distress signal before its engine was targeted and exploded, turning it dead in the water. Several of Emile's coworkers died in the blast, and he himself was sandwiched between debris. The pirates ultimately possessed too little firepower to board and take the ship, so by the time the coast guard arrived, they had already cleared off with whatever they could get their hands on. Emile was among the rescued sailors, but his right leg was in such a bad shape that the doctors were forced to amputate at the knee. When he awoke, it became clear that it wasn't just his leg that the freak incident had damaged.

Coming home after that was like traveling to a different world. For weeks, Emile lived and moved as if in a dream, sluggish and unresponsive. His worried family did what it could to help, but they were too poor to make a difference, and the awaited checks from the government never came. After a time, Emile's depression did start to break, due to the efforts of his young niece and her dog. This girl, the daughter of his older sister, was a ray of brilliant sunshine that reached out to him through his misery. Her dog, a friendly and empathetic Burmese Mountain Dog who chose to be Emile's constant companion, warmed his heart as well. To distract himself from a reality where he was crippled, jobless, and seemingly forgotten by all but his relations, Emile accepted Liana's invitation to a video game that she enjoyed. It had been a long time since he'd played anything, but Yggdrasil seemed to click instantly, and his trained reflexes surged back. For a time, he played only with his niece, and the two worked together to create a few NPCs to keep them company. Eventually, however, Emile connected with some of his old comrades via the game, and playing together with them proved fulfilling. Little by little, the man broke out of the shell he'd made for himself, even going on to secure a job at a nearby mechanic's. He never stopped playing, however, and dedicated a lot of his time to the game. Though he needed the escapism less, he never stopped enjoying it, and eventually began to speedrun raids and boss rushes with his own little guild. Though lacking the nerve for ultra-competitive PVP, he made a name for himself in the realm of PVE, and when Yggdrasil's developers learned that a disabled veteran was not just dedicated to but also excelling at their game, he and his friends were offered a place on the officially-sponsored guild Project Vicarious, a group of people like him. There, Emile felt less lonely and more engaged than ever before.

Life went on. Like many, even among the most dedicated to Yggdrasil, Emile's interest waned, but when he learned that there would be a grand celebration, he could not stay away. He and Liana, now sixteen years old, returned for the final few hours to reminisce about days gone.

The Avatar

Name: Carreau
Appearance: Tall and slender, Carreau's body is fully masked by his clothing, most notable of which is a storm-gray longcoat with gilded edges, a high collar, exaggerated shoulders. With a sky-blue lining, it has the look of thin cloth lengths layer like paper. He also wears a black silk sash, ivory-and-bronze shinguards, and ordinary shoes. This is a good reference. Were he to remove his crested helmet, it would become obvious that he is a Strigiforme, or owl man, of the Great Bubo variety. His features are like such
Race: Demihuman
Gender: Male
Character Level: 90
Alignment: 100
Racial Class:
-Strigiforme
-Great Bubo
Job Class:
-Comet Chaser (3)
-Air Raider (10)
-Lodestar (10)
-Spellsword (10)
-Elementalist - Wind (10)
-Bandit (15)
Fighting Style: In short, versatile damage. He can flex between melee and ranged, DPS and burst. His signature weapons provide ample melee DPS when in physical mode and ranged DPS in magic mode. Using an 'ingenius' combination of class abilities and skills he can inflict extreme melee burst when flying around with Aether Wings, and after filling the battlefield with slow-moving magical projectiles can send them all toward a marked target at once with Brand of Destiny for crazy burst. Ultra-high mobility, used in combat for swift strikes and evasion, defines his fighting, and his game plan is the targeting and elimination of squishy casters and supports while his allies keep the tanks and warriors busy to build up for an Airstrike
Strengths: Carreau's highest stat is his Speed, and he moves and fights at a blistering pace even for foes higher-leveled than he. It allows him to negate vast amounts of damage by dodging, at which he is highly proficient. Coupled with his ability to fly, he can cover vast distances in very little time and outmaneuver the vast majority of enemies. Of course, his Skill is nothing to scoff at. Quick, accurate strikes are his bread and butter, supplemented with hand-to-hand combat. He can also parry, deflecting an enemy's melee strike before unleashing a deadly counterattack. All of these, taken along with his tricky offensive abilities, make him a nuisance at a variety of ranges, and give him the tools to build up enough momentum to take on most situations.
Weaknesses: Due to his race, Carreau has a weakness to arrows (as well as similar forms of high-speed piercing attack) and lightning. Most obvious is his lackluster defense and HP pool, which can be wiped out quickly if his speed is somehow impaired. Flexibility in terms of magic or physical damage also means that neither is quite as high as it could be. While he has a host of gimmicks and strategies, none are too substantial in and of themselves, and a quicker-thinking and observant foe can force him to fight cautiously. Arguably his worst weakness is not one in the game: he doesn't have a hyper-competitive spirit and can lose nerve in PvP battles, up to and including panicking
Equipment:
Euphoria – a pair of sabers that appear ordinary at first glance, save for the flawlessness of the gleaming, silvery blades. However, Euphoria is actually a type of divine-class item known as a Possessed Weapon. It was part of a set of fifteen, given to Project Vicarious by Yggdrasil's devs as both a symbol of the veterans' resolve to overcome all the challenges thrown at them -both in the game and in real life- and a challenge in and of itself. Possessed Weapons start off as simple knives that, when used on another weapon in the user's inventory, eat that weapon and gain its value. They start off as useless, but possess extreme potential, and Carreau put in the time and patience to cultivate his. Euphoria's first meal was the treasured pair of dual swords he'd used and upgraded since early game, which gave it its shape, and from then on Carreau fed it every high-quality, lightweight sword he came across. Eventually he started adding magic catalysts to it, and after a while it came to possess the Transmute enchantment, which allowed the blades to switch from physical to magic damage on the fly, and the Air Razor enchantment, which enabled it to create wind slashes, tornado discs, and even twisters while in magic mode. This prompted him to take up the Elementalist - Wind class as well. Eat or be eaten—the law of nature. Demonic tools known as Possessed Weapons destroy and devour weapons they come across, growing and evolving with each meal. Like living things they accumulate strength and character, invariably becoming weapons of legend
Galecycler – a repeating crossbow with a revolving barrel magazine that, once made to spin, is able to magically take in and compress atmospheric pressure and create somewhat slow-moving but explosive bolts. It was a random drop from a high-level dungeon raid, very unique but not too powerful, and since then Carreau's put a lot of resources into upgrading it into a powerful part of his arsenal. Once a magitek marvel, this repeating crossbow, able to replenish its own ammunition has been made brittle by overuse
Sylphic Visor – Carreau's distinctive crested helmet, which contains enchanted eyepieces that enhance his already-splendid Strigiforme vision. In particular, the left eye can cast Discern Enemy, and give a readout on the lens of an enemy's level. The right eye can cast Life Essence and give a readout of an enemy's HP. A magical crafted item made by one of Carreau's guildmates during an attempt to make a visor that could cast the spell Identify to tell what magic enemies are using, and subsequently thrown away when it didn't do what he the guildmate wanted. Forest sprites have more than their fair share of secrets, and while artifacts like this helmet may leak to the outside world, their knowledge never does
Aeternam's Windbreaker - the distinctive gray longcoat of the three-eyed master of a floating citadel. It has great stats, but they could be better; Carreau has it primarily for aesthetics. It does offer higher than usual magic resistance for the type of armor it falls under. Though calm in countenance and astute of mind, the warlord Aeternam was said to have the presence of a smoldering storm, which can be at least partially attributed to this unabashedly stylish, tempestuous raiment
Abilities:
Comet Chaser – a class that becomes available to a character of a winged race who can complete the high-level solo quest On Top of the World and ascended to the dark, starry realm called Outer Heaven. Becoming a Comet Chaser involves a massive infusion of aether, the undiluted magical essence of space, which at a base level grants increased MP Regen, increased Luck and offers other bonuses based on attunement to the individual's core element. If those bound to the earth dream of flying, what do those with wings dream of? Many have brushed against the starry, sorcerous void above the sky, but few dare to go even further beyond
Aether Wings – one of the bonuses granted to Carreau by the attuned aether of a Comet Chaser. His wings become magical energy, able to be summoned or dispelled at will, and freely changed in size. Using them, he can fly with the speed and force of a comet, launching off the ground to blaze through the sky. Striking with the black wings themselves, or a part of his body while empowered, inflicts physical damage, and he leaves a green-blue magic trail behind him while flying. Only the freest and most tenacious of spirits ever reach Heaven, and once there, may find themselves rocketing through the skies like the brilliant skylights they once admired
Aether Body – one of the bonuses granted to Carreau by the attuned aether of a Comet Chaser. His aether forms a cushion around his body, and if he suffers damage, an amount of the aether is broken off and turned into wind orbs according to how much damage was dealt. No magic below Super-tier, or spells made to penetrate barriers, can deplete the Aether Body and Carreau's HP in one go; in all other situations, the barrier's destruction prevents any damage from bleeding over. Reaching Outer Heaven does more than awe the mind; its aether fills the body like a parasite, sacrificing itself to offer defense and retribution against those who harm its 'host'
Air Superiority – a skill inherent to Carreau's Air Raider class that grants him bonus attack against other fliers and bonus evasion against aerial projectiles. Any kind of pirate, driven to the untamed sky by restless ambition and tenacity, quickly learns how to handle its inhabitants
Flying Guillotine – a skill inherent to Carreau's Air Raider class that gives his main weapons the Boomerang trait, allowing them to spin through the air when thrown, flying with exceptional precision, and to return to Carreau afterward. Flashy combat is a tried-and-true mainstay of Air Raiders, who differentiate themselves from everyday pirates with a unique blend of style and skill
Brand of Destiny – a curse native to the Spellsword class, manifest in a magical dagger cast from the palm, that leaves a mark upon a hit target that, for 1 second, sets the victim's Luck stat to 1 and adds double the stolen Luck to the caster's. So long as the victim isn't extremely unlucky or low-leveled, this effect invariably causes all of the caster's preexisting projectiles to immediately pick up speed and home in on the target, and the homing effect persists even after the Luck is restored. Carreau calls the annihilation of a target with projectiles scattered through a fight an 'Airstrike.' Spread too thin among their different attributes to really specialize, Spellswords fall back on all many of tricks to maximize their lethality. Brand of Destiny, able to send all of one's spells toward a hapless foe in a single destructive finale, is a favorite
Rally Spectrum – an upgraded ability from Carreau's old Bandit class, gained after 300 uses of the temporary stat boost 'Rally' Bandit ability as party leader. It allows Carreau to choose a stat to increase by 20% for his entire party, lasting for 20 seconds. Being a leader is more than being the first to charge forward; it's knowing your allies, and how to evoke in them what is needed to secure victory
Camaraderie – a passive holdover ability from Carreau's old Bandit class that increases physical vulnerability on a struck enemy for 5% for every ally targeting that enemy alongside Carreau. Teamwork is essential to thieves who rely on numbers, rather than stealth, to shake down their targets
How a normal human would view me: A normal human, looking at Carreau, might see him as an eccentric rogue or foreign mercenary. Many might treat him with suspicion, but he does not give off a bad vibe

Behind the Scenes

Name: Liana Forsyth
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Bio: Born in the burgh of St. Andrew's in Scotland, a scenic seaside town known for its prestigious university and impressive cathedral, Liana demonstrated an imaginative, playful nature from the very get-go. Her family, while poor in terms of money, enjoyed strong bonds; her mother, father, brother, and aunt all lived in the same household, and the young girl knew that she had an uncle as well, but that he was far away on a boat and wouldn't be back for a long time. Curious, carefree, and prone to wandering, she often explored the shoreline and the ominous cathedral ground, which she found particularly thrilling. Most of all Liana liked walking to the university, which drew enough students from all over Europe to comprise up to a third of the town's population at any given time, and talking to everyone she found. Though she didn't necessarily understand what the people she met had to say, she listened with such an enthusiastic energy that few could help but to smile and let Liana call them 'friend.'

Back home, Liana often wiled away her time with her brother playing games, starting out on her dad's old console. Ross was the one who got his younger sister into games in the first place, and eventually she joined him in the game Yggdrasil early in its -and her- life cycle. Cheerful and obliging, she was pleased to let his creativity take the reign and envision her character: a holy princess, slain in a tragic accident but brought back to 'life' by a mad sorcerer at her father's behest. Something about playing a flesh-manipulating monstrosity that acted like a sweet, polite gentlewoman was inordinately funny to her. With the character's blend of dark tankiness and support, she had a lot of fun, never facing much competition for her role and always receiving plenty of appreciation -or at least tolerance- from anyone she happened to party up with.

Yggdrasil became more than just a way to pass free time when her uncle returned from overseas, three quarters of the man he once was. Having never known him, Liana was at first afraid of and distant from the depressed, antisocial man that worried his only family. Money grew shorter, and Emile's feelings of worthlessness deepened as he became aware that he was weighing his brother's household down. Liana did come to feel his pain, and to want desperately to help him, but she had no idea how. An idea eventually came in the form of her dog, who would unabashedly approach and cozy up to Emile whenever he saw him. Eventually Liana decided just to be her own happy self, and bit by bit she broke down Emile's wall. It was during that time that, seeking to distract him from his depression, Liana suggested that they play her favorite game together. The rest, as they say, was history.

In the end, though, Liana lost interest far faster than her uncle. Though she cherished being able to bring him back out of his shell with the game, it was never about escapism for her as it was for him. She still loved to explore and meet people when not occupied with school or friends, but for a while Emile didn't have a lot outside the confines of his desktop. After some time Lina quit, feeling that she'd exhausted all the fun the game had to offer. Only years later, in the MMO's closing hours, did she return alongside her uncle to celebrate for old times' sake. The two had remained good friends even after Emile got a job, all thanks to the girl's original act of kindness, and both felt that the close of Yggdrasil's world would solidify the end of a chapter in their lives and allow Emile to fully move on.

Instead, the game became more real than either could have ever imagined.

Name: Lenore XIII
Appearance: At first glance Liana appears to be a woman in an elaborate, layered dress intermingled with leather, but any more observation and it becomes clear that she wears a very different hide. From boot to coif, every inch of her clothing is a fleshy extension of her body, molded into a variety of shapes and textures. Though her form resembles a human's, its clear that she takes no great pains to hide her monstrosity; jagged fangs line the edges of much of her attire, for instance. This is essentially what she looks like
Race: Heteromorphic
Gender: Female
Character Level: 60
Alignment: 400 (Exceptionally good, a hero of the people)
Racial Class:
-Shoggoth (5)
-Flesh Golem (10)
Job Class:
-Flesh Smith (10)
-Blood Knight (10)
-Deaconess (10)
-Cleric (15)
-Cultist (15)
Fighting Style: This character's strategy is simple: get aggro and start soaking up the punishment. At the start of a fight there's not typically much she can do except get whaled on, mitigate a lot of it through defense, and heal whatever damage gets through via various means, but as the fight progresses things she gains more power. The amount of carnage feeds directly into her ability to provide utility for her allies and afflict her enemies with crippling statuses and DoTs. In short, she concentrates on incredible, sustainable tankiness until she can snowball into overwhelming damage.
Strengths: Her primary selling point is definitely her tankiness. The amount of damage she can eat up is astonishing even for players and mobs of higher level. However, she does provide more utility to allies than taking the heat off of them. She can also heal them and wipe away their debuffs to an extent, if she's not too busy managing her resources to empower herself or create all sorts of monsters
Weaknesses: Her overall damage, even toward the end of a fight in which she's managed to accumulate a lot of biomass and enhancements, is unremarkable. It's pretty much nothing at one's beginning. Her mobility is also low, and she hosts weaknesses to both fire and light magic. In the new world she also tends to attract unwanted attention even in everyday circumstances, mostly in the form of resentment and disgust but boiling over into hatred and violence unfortunately often. Perhaps more importantly, despite the nasty nature of her race and abilities, Liana didn't play this character as evil. Instead, she only ever used her as a heroine, meek and compassionately helping the weak and needy people she encountered in-game
Equipment:
Crucifix of Nag'shi Kraw – the signature staff of the boss of the dungeon, Rotmilch Glen. Well-known for the obscurity of the questline that led there, its abusive average completion time of two hours, and the resulting outrageous queue time, it went unused for the most part. This decorated staff embodies the dichotomy of 'cure and curse', amplifying healing spells cast by it but preventing the use of all but plant, poison, and earth spells for offense. A lowland druid renowned for her incredible magical talent and equally expansive ego once delved into a forbidden wood in search of power. The murky, hideous secrets she unearthed melded her with an ancient spirit of corruption to become the inhuman witch Nag'shi Kraw, whose blight corrupted the woodland into a fetid, unholy swampland plagued by darkness
Abilities:
Foul Flesh – the core passive ability of the Flesh Golem racial class. Every part of a Flesh Golem is alive, even after broken off from the whole, and aside from enjoying an increased regeneration of wounds they can also reattach lost body parts. Are these twisted, malformed mistakes truly alive? At the very least, whatever they are, it is excessively difficult to convince them to stop being so
Meat Invade – a skill inherent to the Flesh Golem racial class. If cut off from the main body, the still-living part of a Flesh Golem's body can be commanded to attack the enemy rather than try to reattach. The Golem's meat can actually enter enemies' bodies through wounds and attack from within, applying a nasty DoT. Getting hurt is one thing; getting invaded is another. So vile are these nightmarish freaks that even the slabs you cut off them seek to burrow into your flesh
Despicable Thing – a passive ability of the Shoggoth racial class triggered on sight. Entities not explicitly allied to her or with less than 250 alignment are repulsed by her, massively increasing the amount of aggro she draws from them. In the new world, this works as a sort of hate aura, driving enemies to prioritize attacking her over her allies, and even out of combat it's always on to a much lesser degree. Shoggoth—a name created by man to label something he was never meant to understand. The sight of a thing beyond our ken awakens something primal within us, like a body rejecting a transplanted organ. We can't help but to want it gone, and to return to our blissful naivety
Formless Horror – a skill inherent to the Shoggoth racial class that allows her to manipulate her own shape. Compared to Doppelgangers, it is slower, more limited, and substantially more obvious, but in her case her race interacts with her Flesh Smith class to grant her more convincing self-transformation the more biomass she has. For the writhing, throbbing freaks we call Shoggoths, having only one form must be positively blasé. With their exact shape they always keep us guessing, but no matter what form they take, the stench is always the same
Renewal – a passive ability of the Deaconess class that grants high HP regeneration. All novices in the clergy eagerly await the day their God recognizes their cultivated faith and good works, and as a sign of favor bestows a boon of vibrant health
Cleanse – a skill of the Deaconess class that removes negative status effects on the user or an ally, though not spells with a higher level than the user's own. Just as doctors treat the body of its sicknesses, priests treat people of their afflictions, but of the two remedies holy love tends to work greater miracles
Blood-starved – a passive ability of the Blood Knight class that contributes immensely to her tankiness. It manifests as an aura of ferocious hunger like red and yellow steam rising from the skin, and it causes any kind of healing performed by a non-ally within 50 meters of her to heal her instead of its intended target. This includes self-heals. Bloodlust is altogether familiar for Berserkers and the like, but for Blood Knights it's an entirely different beast. So intense and violent is their hunger that the learn to soak in their foes' pitiful attempts at recovery, so that the slaughter may continue unabated
Terrify – a passive ability of the Blood Knight class that increases the amount of Fear that Lenore's acts of violence and horror create. Just as in the old world, in this new one it builds up over time to cause an unavoidable paralysis or flee depending on enemies' mental fortitude. There comes a point in every war where the horror overflows its cup. Every soul can be broken, and when soulfelt fear takes a hammer to one's resolve, only two fates remain: run or freeze
The Flesh that Hates – a skill of the Flesh Smith class used to conjure bloody needles to embed into biomass. Once enough of her foul magic is inside the flesh, she can sculpt it as she pleases, altering its internal and external structure and even bringing it to life to create monsters for offensive or defensive use. It takes more MP expenditure to take control of living things, but if she manages to, she can mold their own flesh as she pleases as well. Being her absolute favorite ability, this has been developed to a degree where it can essentially polymorph afflicted targets, or mutilate a couple of corpses into a ravenous monster, with startling swiftness. Blaspheming occultists, having delved into the darkest of magics, often diverge in favor of the body or the soul. Of the two it is hard to say which is more wretched. Unburdened by humanity, the Flesh Smiths melt down the bodies of those who fall before them and, with fell creativity, fashion them into shapes noisome and new
Corpse Collector – a passive ability of the Flesh Smith class that provides a sort of resource system for her to utilize with her other abilities. Through touch, she can absorb corpses into herself, breaking down the biomass into a raw state that can be used in a number of different ways. Most often it is stored within herself, increasing her density and therefore her defense with each cadaver consumed. Biomass can be used to more drastically alter her physical form, be it in shapeshifting or in growing things like massive tentacles to attack with, or expunged for forging by The Flesh that Hates. In the new world, its uses are practically limitless. Necrophages are among the first creatures that many adventurers encounter: miserable and mindless beasts that prowl graveyards and battlefields in search of their next meal. Loath would many adventurers be to find out how many end their careers against aberrations that consume corpses for altogether different purposes
How a normal human would view me: a normal human in the new world would view Lenore as a hideous abomination, instinctively driven to attack her or to flee. The sight of her alone awakens primal reflexes in any man, woman, or child that sees her

Behind the Avatar
Name: Trần Quốc Chau
Age: 24
Gender: Female
Bio:
In short, Chau fell for a gamer nerd.

In her second year of college, she met Khang. At the time, no one would ever guess the diligent, bespectacled student spent almost all of his free time gaming. Her expectations were shattered when she found out, but Chau was nothing, if not persistent.

Once they started dating, she tried prying him away from his console games, which worked for a time, but he always went crawling back. After repeated begging, pleading, and shedding enough crocodile tears to fill an Olympic swimming pool, she capitulated and started playing.

That was a mistake.

Chau has what you might call an addiction-prone personality, and will get can wildly obsessed over the most trivial of things. YGGDRASIL proved to be very addicting, and the two played together quite often. Khang was content. It was one of the few ways, he and his old high school friends could keep in touch, and he'd finally convinced his girlfriend to start playing too.

But the good times didn't last. New jobs. College graduation. Girlfriends. Husbands. Kids. Slow and inexorable changes in their real lives forced them to stop playing eventually. Khang and Chau eventually started to settle down. Once their son, Nầm, was born, they stopped playing entirely.

A chance text message from one of their old guild mates invited both of them to a closing party, since the game server was going to be shutdown. The old team wanted to have one last hurrah to reminisce. Khang left early to be ready for work the next day, while Chau stayed after, reading through the guild logs and immersing herself in nostalgia.

The Avatar
Name: December
Appearance:

Race: Heteromophic Race - Chimera
Gender: Female
Character Level: 100
Alignment: -50 | Post-Shutdown: 150 (Good-natured, if a little unpredictable)

Racial Class:
Chimera 15
Beast Shaper 10
Shaper Savant 5

Job Class:
Godclaw Scion 5
Winter Tyrant 5
Alchemist 15
Transmutation Specialist 10
Beast Tamer 10
Others 25

Fighting Style: Most at home in a body with horns, sharp claws and fangs, December typically fights like a feral animal and never holds back against her opponents. Melee combat is her expertise, and her shapeshifting ability is a means to an end, so she can close the gap and engage her opponent quickly. Her attacks may be swift and powerful, but the magic that enhances them is the real danger.

Strengths:
December can transform into a variety of animals with many different forms and sizes. From the diminutive mouse to a thalassic leviathan of colossal proportions, she has a variety of forms to choose from, allowing her to assume one that most suits the situation at hand. Through partially or completely transforming her body to take on different animalistic features--horns, wings, venomous fangs, spiked tails, thick fur, armored scales, and so on--she adapts her physical form to counter her opponent's tactics and tries to keep the advantage. Like all bestial shapeshifters, her raw physical attributes are increased when she transforms.
The character December was specialized with both PvE and a few specific raid bosses in mind. In particular, December trained to fight extremely large enemies or large numbers of enemies. As such she is well-suited to pulling the entire room and kiting it death.
Chimera are amalgam creatures shaped by powerful arcane magic, as such December shares their racial traits which offer moderate resistance to magic in general, and an especially high resistance against arcane magic. Her inhuman physiology causes her slowly regenerate her HP, and causes poisons and diseases to behave differently--they are either inert, more potent, slow acting, or causes a different set of effects entirely.

Weaknesses:
While a versatile offense is useful, her abilities make it difficult to handle large groups of extremely agile enemies or those who can consistently exploit a long-range advantage. Her class skills make wide open spaces her preferred combat arena, and fighting in tight spaces can be especially troublesome for her.
The Winter Tyrant abilities also come with an inherent vulnerability to the fire attribute. She is aware of this chink in her otherwise well-rounded defenses, and has a few items to help alleviate the problem. Low-tier Fire magic she can shrug off or dispel with little effort, especially if they come from an arcane source, but higher tier fire spells are still a significant threat and require special preparation to overcome.

Equipment:
Ring of the Golem Emperor = Received from a special crafting event, December is recognized by all golems and other animated constructs as a superior existence. She can issue commands to any one of them that she can see and that can hear her. Who made them or programmed them is irrelevant. The golem will follow her orders to the exclusion of everyone else's, but only until her instructions for a given task has been completed, or unless the order is impossible to follow. Moreover, they can only respond to one command at a time. Constructs will not engage her in combat, although Relic-Tier constructs and higher may elect to ignore her commands if they have their own will.

Winter Tyrant's Set = This unified set of gear makes December immune to any kind of frost damage and the frozen condition. Magic with the frost element targeting her is instantly absorbed and refills her MP according to the strength of the spell.
The chest piece empowers her frost element so any damage is treated as frostburn, which reduces the enemy's maximum HP instead of dealing damage normally. The shoes allow her to create ice platforms out of thin air for her to step on, allowing her walk through the air. The gloves allow her frost damage to ignore any special resistances. The other items confer similarly thematic buffs.

Pets/Minions = During her time in YGGDRASIL, December tamed and befriended a wide variety of monsters in the taiga and glacial zones. She was on relatively good terms with the Frost Dragons, and on more than one occasion took side quests to protect egg clutches from Frost Giant raids. She never really kept pets per say, often letting her tamed monsters roam free, but she tried to visit them periodically.

At one point, she crafted several Ice and Mithral Golems to protect her old guildhall. She took pride in making her personal golems closely resemble animals in the wild or other characters from the guild, so they seemed less like robotic automatons and more like living, breathing creatures. She had built several golems by commission as well, but by far the strongest one she had made to date was Lexus Dominiel, which also the first and only divine-class golem she had ever created. Lexus was the result of group crafting project during a special event, where she, her husband's character, and another guild mate, IYamWhatIYam, pooled their crafting resources and made a superior divine construct.

There are only two servants that December typically kept with her while she was adventuring with Khang. The first is a Homonculus Wizard named Akena. She was the first successful homonculus NPC December had ever created. The second is Myr, a Dark Valkyrja. By accidentally failing some of her quest objectives in a specific order, she gained the opportunity to help redeem Myr instead of slaying her. December received a magic horn as a symbol of Myr's loyalty.

Abilities
Fellcalling = With a threatening warcry or bolstering howl, she can grant temporary buffs to any subordinates and allies who can hear or see her. The buffs are quite strong, but don't last long and aren't suited for prolonged fights. Additionally, her roar can produce concussive sonic blasts capable of pulverizing stone.

Master Transmuter = Mastery of transmutation spells afford December some specific protections and is thus immune to petrification or any form-altering spell, unless she wishes to be affected by it. Moreover, her spells are especially potent, allowing her to transform mundane materials, like stone, into rare, albeit raw materials like unprocessed silver or rough gemstones. Similarly, she could turn a muddy pond into wine or a noisy human into a statue of volcanic glass. The problem lies in the cost prohibitive Mana consumption and cool down times, which don't scale down very much even at higher levels.
It does, however, make crafting and upgrading much easier. The item is instantly transmuted into the desired final product after all the necessary materials have been gathered and an appropriate amount of MP is spent.

Godclaw Inheritor = December's natural weapons--goring horns, slashing claws, stomping hooves, and so on--are enhanced to the point of being divine-class weapons. However, all her weapon slots count as being occupied, and she can never equip any other weapon or shield. She receives no item or set benefits whatsoever and the item's durability quickly deteriorates if she tries to wield them.

Avatar of the Winter Tyrant = A rare innate talent that Chau randomly acquired when she first created her character, December. Her physical attacks are automatically imbued with the frost element, causing a slow effect. It also artificially increases the tier of any frost element spell by 1 (max 6) without increasing its cost or casting time. It has a few other minor benefits, such as automatically acclimating to extremely low temperatures, altitude, and being completely unhindered by winter terrain or weather (magical or mundane).

Frozen in Time = In a pinch, December can suspend a spell in time by freezing it with her magic. It doesn't prevent the spell from being cast, but it delays its manifestation. If the caster is defeated before the spell manifests, it fizzles. Keeping a spell suspended, however, slowly drains her Mana and drains it more rapidly depending on the strength of the spell. She must be aware the spell is being cast and be able to perceive its caster in some way. She can freely end the effect at any time.

Fimbulvetr = Earned as a reward for a series of solo quests, it is a manifested ability that functions as Super-Tier magic. December summons an apocalyptic winter storm around herself rife with bizarre magical effects. The howling boreal winds slow all movement to a crawl and carry razor sleet that can pierce through mundane walls and ramparts. Hail erupts in a burning cold flame when it makes impact and also causes frostburn. The snow slowly rusts and corrodes all but the toughest of metals, and the accumulating rime can quickly cover an area in several inches of ice.
By nature it is difficult to dispel and its massive area of effect makes it useful against armies of mobs, but it also doesn't distinguish between friend or foe, and is exceedingly dangerous for anything that's not immune to frost damage or the caster herself.

How a normal human would view her: While she normally transforms into a beast in combat, she can appear as an unassuming young human or beastkin girl while she is in town.

Name: Akena
Appearance:

Yggdrasil/New World: YGGDRASIL
Race: Homunculus
Gender: Female
Character Level: 92
Alignment: 210
Racial Class: N/A
Job Class:
Oracle 10
Hierophant 10
Seer of Vanaheim 5
Wizard 10
High Wizard 10
Scholar 10
Forbidden Scholar 7
Other 30

Fighting Style:
Akena rarely fights and is ill-suited to combat, so she mainly focuses on support spells and buffing. However, if cornered, she will unleash a staggering arsenal of spells to overwhelm her opponent or make an opportunity to retreat.

Strengths:
A powerful spellcaster in her own right, she can command nature itself and tug on the threads of fate. Her heightened awareness and passive foresight abilities make her highly evasive and allows her to counterspell her opponent's magic easily. While offensive magic is not her specialty, her raw magical strength and MP is far greater than even December's, making even low-tier spells extremely potent.

Weaknesses:
Her powers of foresight come at price. Unable to contain the divine power within their bodies, all Oracles suffer from some kind of debilitating curse. In Akena's case, she is cursed with sloth. She is often plagued with fatigue and drowsiness. Although she can remain active for brief periods of time without much issue, she must rest for at least twice as long as she was active. In effect, if she's active for an hour, she must rest for at least two hours. She can push herself, but if she remains active for more than half a day, she must rest for the next three.
This makes it difficult for her to participate normally in most quests, and inhibits her ability to function in a party.

Equipment/Abilities Worthy of Note:
Veil of the Starry Heavens - This ornate veil made of silk and lace is a divine-class item imbued with a sacred blessing. The veil creates a divine sanctuary effect and makes it seem morally and viscerally wrong to harm the wearer, regardless of race or intelligence. Enemy AI automatically treat the wearer as the lowest priority target. When a Player casts a hostile spell at the wearer, the caster receives an unresistable, sacred debuff that burns extra MP. If physically assaulted, the attacker will receive similar sacred debuffs to their strength and accuracy.
All debuffs only apply if the wearer is targeted by a spell or attack, and immediately disappears when the attacker begins to target someone (or something) else.

Reliquary Heart - This smooth, round stone could have easily been taken from a river bed. It would be otherwise unremarkable except for the fissures that trace angelic patterns along its entire surface and spew forth pale, silvery motes of light.
This is Akena's Heartstone and it contains part of her soul. It acts as a permanent scrying focus, so she can sense the environment around it as if she were there herself, and may communicate telepathically with anyone holding it. She always knows its exact location and can cast spells through the stone regardless of distance.
If the heartstone no more than 10 meters away, Akena may retreat into the heartstone as a purely spiritual entity. She can freely manifest her physical body if she wishes.
However, if she is farther away, she must sacrifice her physical form and cannot manifest a physical body again for at least one week afterward.
If Akena is ever killed, her heartstone becomes inert and stops glowing. Akena can be killed normally or by destroying her heartstone.

December keeps this item in her possession at all times, and as the creator of the stone, can forcibly make Akena retreat into it.

Foresight (Passive) - Akena's mind is subconsciously attuned to sensing ripples in time. She can react to dangerous events that occur a few moments into the future before they actually happen, such as dodging an arrow by hair's breadth or stepping over a tripwire at the last second.
This kind of foresight doesn't actually confer any knowledge of what's about to happen; her mind and body simply react to the impending danger.

Augury - Tapping into the vagaries of Fate, Akena can determine important events in the near future that dramatically affect either her or a person she designates. The problem lies in once someone knows about a future event, the event itself is no longer immutable and inevitable. Additionally, once Akena looks into the future, her meddling leaves a permanent mark in the cosmic tapestry of Fate, so any other seer can see where she looked and what she did.

Blood Biography - This spell requires a drop of blood or significant piece of the target's body to function; the target may be living or dead, and need not be present for the spell to work. Once cast, the spell creates floating arcane text made of blood and describes the owner of the blood (or body part) in great detail.
Akena can determine its gender, race, most commonly used name, how and when their blood was spilled, what type of magic source they can use (if any), how many times they have reincarnated, who their current immediate relatives are (but by itself can't distinguish between parent, sibling or offspring),

Consecration Aura (Passive) - As living conduit to the realm of gods, her body overflows with divine energy. Weak undead and cursed creatures take holy damage just by being near her. Stronger undead and most demons instead feel intense discomfort or nausea.
Her aura can purify desecrated areas, cursed objects, and so on, but her aura is slow-acting and the stronger the effect, the longer it takes for her aura to purify it. A defiled crypt may take an hour, but a blighted forest or cursed farmland may require her presence for several days.
By default it purifies any food or drink she touches, and makes her immune to disease and most poisons.

Bio:
Akena was born from the first ultra-rare data crystal December ever received. It was during the Revenants of Vanaheim, where random incursions of small armies of mobs would spawn in key places. The revenants themselves weren't the problem, but the sheer numbers and persistence made it difficult. There was a special achievement for any player could defeat the entire army of revenants single-handedly. However, very few ever got it. If even one mob out of a thousand died due to another player's interference, no one could get the achievement for that instance. December was one of only a hundred or so to get the achievement and the prize for earning it.

December set herself to the task of making her first homunculus shortly thereafter. With data crystals she had, she knew she could make a unique NPC and her imagination ran wild for days as she agonized over how to make it. Paralyzed by too much choice, in the end, she decided to keep the recipe simple: copious amounts of December's own blood, crystallized sunbeams from Alfheim, acorn meal retrieved from one of Ratatoskr's well-hidden stashes, the plumes of an eagle to enhance wisdom, and high-quality base materials to balance out the other ingredients. Together they created a superior quality homunculus with the highest possible aptitude for magic.

In real life, December was never very close to her little sister, Phuong, but always wanted to be. They rarely got along and would fight over the most trivial things. To her great regret, their bad blood continued even into adulthood. With no easy way to make amends, she saw an opportunity in her new homunculus. She fashioned Akena after her little sister, and bought cash items to improve her AI. December practiced talking with Akena as if she were family, hoping that she might figure out a way to reconnect with her little sister through roleplaying with an NPC version of her. Even with the improved NPC responses, however, her personality was little different than a sophisticated chat bot. December tried to make the best of it though; in time, she came to enjoy Akena's company as it was the closest thing to a functional sibling relationship she'd ever have.

How a normal human would view me: An elven maiden in the prime of her youth.

Age: 33
Gender: Male
Bio: Tobias Wagner is an Austrian cyber security specialist who works for Gluckweich (Lucksoft), a software company that specializes in anti-virus programs such as their most famed, “Aegis.” He has always lived alone for being a cyber geek didn’t make him attractive to most women. People were always hard to connect with. No matter what he did, he always somehow seemed to screw up a potential friendship. Let’s not even bother to say relationship because that has never happened. Tobias doesn’t really regret not ever having a girlfriend for it had allowed him to focus on his career, and he could spend as many hours as he wanted on his favorite game “Yggdrasil” without some woman pawing for his attention all the time. Tobias has played Yggdrasil since the game came out and he paid for the Adventurer Pack that granted him increased XP boosts and premium membership that gave him continual benefits. While the majority of jobless players had to spend hours grinding for all eternity to even make a dint in the higher levels, Tobias didn’t have to grind as hard as them though it still took several days of grinding and player-killing. Tobias chose the Assassin class to somewhat get back at the world and the humans he lacked sympathy for. PKing players allowed him to gain lots of loot that he sold on the world market. He eventually joined a guild called “Get Some” and used them solely for dungeon raids. Some of the members were even able to benefit off his money for he bought them cash shop items in exchange for in-game gold. Tobias played the game until its shutdown was announced. He didn’t take the news lightly. All that money he invested in the subscription almost felt like a waste. It would have been if he hadn’t played up to its last few minutes. When the game shutdown…the unexpected happened.


Name: (σωσ) (No one really knew what to call him. His old guild invented the name “Face.”)
Appearance: Face is a doppleganger, but he can take on the form of anyone he encounters. This racial ability made his PK career super effective. Dopplegangers are twiggy and gray with a round face with three holes in it much like a bowling ball. He wears medium armor, black in color, and looks like your typical ninja when he isn’t transformed. Transformed, he can replicate any class but the potency of their copied abilities are reduced to 80%.
Race: Heteromorphic - Dopplegänger
Gender: N/A (He sounds male when he speaks and has a German accent)
Character Level: 100
Alignment: -100
Racial Class: Greater Dopplegänger
Job Class:

• Rogue (3)
• Ninja (5)
• Master Assassin (10)
• Poison Maker (5)
• Illusionist (3)
• Weapon Master (10)
• Shapeshifter (15)
• Stalker (3)
• Ki Master: Spiritual (5)

Fighting Style: Face is a master assassin not only because his class says he is, but his technique involves tactful assassination. He uses guile and traps to catch opponents off-guard and slays them with burst critical damage. He will douse an opponent with severe damage-over-time effects such as Poison and Bleed and standby like a stalking predator until they succumb to their afflictions. His backstabs receive bonus damage, and therefore, are the most deadly. Face can impersonate other characters and walk among them. Few rarely ever notice that he has even impersonated one of their teammates until after the consequence. If Face isn’t in your guild, then he would be seen as a ruthless killer and your worst nightmare. For the party, Face will lay down traps that stun and slow enemies for the off-tanks and other damage dealers to destroy at their leisure. He will also buff the team’s critical chance as well as attack speed for 30 minutes. The assassin rules in one-on-one fights; however, they are not made to tank mobs. While Face has illusion magic and special equipment that offers area of effect damage in a small radius, his primary purpose is to quickly get in, destroy the “carry” or “support” and get the hell out—and he’s pretty good at that business.

Strengths:

As an assassin wearing medium armor, Face is very fast. His primary defense is evasion and making accurate cuts with his weapons. Having learned the abilities of the Weapon Master class, Face specializes in close-combat and ranged combat when necessary. He will close the distance on rangers using a deadly kusarigama, and usually it is all over from there for the squishies. With his traps, the party can benefit with crowd control. His poison and bleed effects add to the damage inflicted by his fellow damage dealers. With Face being able to remain incognito during fights to pinpoint the carries and support elements of an enemy group, he can swiftly take them out and help his team quickly advance. Prior to becoming a ninja, for the class wasn’t unlockable until level 60, Face spent time as a rogue. While he can’t unlock and disarm the highly advanced chests and doors, he can open novice chests and locks and use the ability pickpocket to steal items from unsuspecting victims. With Face's high dexterity, he is a difficult opponent to target on the battlefield despite having low physical and magic defense as well as Health Points. He compensates for his lack in defense with speed, evasion, and the burst of critical damage he is capable of consecutively dealing, which shatters the defense of most tanks.

Weaknesses:

Face is not meant to take on multiple opponents at once. If ever he has to do so, then he will try to take advantage of the group using traps, guile, and tricks. If he can scatter a team, then he can pick them off. If a team remains a tight, cohesive group, then he is in trouble. Worst case scenario, if he is overwhelmed, he would rather run than risk trying to take an entire party by himself—even at level 100! Majority of Face's attacks utilize physical damage. A tank with a high physical defense rating would survive longer against him than any warrior without such a rating. As a ninja, there are many weapons and items that Face uses to take down enemies and they are in limited supply that need to be restocked. Undead enemies will have the highest advantage of survival with Face due to them already being dead and lacking the pain receptors, nerves, organs, etc. of living entities.

Equipment/Abilities Worthy of Note:

Izaniya Armor Set Named after one of the Thirteen Heroes, the armor set is a medium armor set that is black with a sleek design. Face has enhanced and upgraded the armor to max defense with dexterity bonus.

Chameleon Ring grants Face a cloak of camouflage not invisibility. He can blend into his surroundings whenever he needs to through the activation and deactivation of his ring. While the ring is activated, Face cannot be detected by spells. However, if one were to look closely, his victim may be able to physically detect him.

Sanguine Blade is the name of Face’s kusarigama. The blade of the kusarigama is bright-red and at the end of its black chain is a claw that can be used to grapple high ledges or snag enemies to divert their swings. Face can rapidly whirl his kusarigama, making it quite the flayer of flesh. The Sanguine Blade gets its name because it inflicts Bleed on those who are cut by it. The bleed damage lasts for 10 seconds, and the time will keep resetting for as many times the enemy continues to be cut. Face will lob his kusarigama at enemies in two ways: 1) if the blade impales an enemy, then he will quickly tug himself close to him or her and rip the blade out causing physical damage; and 2) if the claw snags an enemy, then he will yank the chain to throw off the enemy's balance. Both throwing options allow him to interrupt a mage's spell if they are caught channeling when it happens. The claw can latch onto the shields of enemies, and if the tank or off-tank doesn’t have a firm grip on it, he has a 50% chance of yanking it out of their hands. The chain of the Sanguine Blade can be used to create a 20 meter by 20 meter square. Enemies trapped inside the square will suffer either Stun or Slow damage when he yanks the blade back. The kusarigama will close the square on the enemies within, supposedly lacerating their tendons, thus which creates the stunning or slowing effects (Note: Either effect is random). On top of that effect is the Bleed effect that is naturally inflicted by the weapon.

Poison Blade/Poison Pot is when Face coats his Sanguine Blade in poison. He often carries about 5 poison vials on his person per dungeon. He will either use the poison vials to coat his sanguine blade for a duration of 5 minutes or he will lob a potion at an enemy to inflict them with poison for 15 seconds.

Shuriken Face will toss out a handful of ninja stars that will scatter in all directions to hit multiple enemies. The scatter effect of the ability does not deal as much damage as when he throws a star individually. Quantity: 10.

Fire Bombs are explosives that have multiple uses. They can be lobbed or rigged to explode at a certain time with a lengthy fuse. Fire Bombs detonate up to 10 meters. Any enemy within 5 meters of the blast will suffer the most damage. Face carries ten of these on his person.

Senbon are very thin steel needles that Face will use to inflict the status effect "Disable." Disable will make an enemy's abilities unusable for 8 seconds. Face is skilled at hitting nerves with these needles that he can perform two other abilities with them. Senbon Flurry is when Face will throw five Senbon at an enemy which target the enemy's joints. The attack will inflict Slow on an enemy for a duration of 10 seconds. Senbon Throw is when Face throws a single senbon at an enemy's throat, inflicting silence for 5 seconds. These needles equally inflict physical damage. Face carries 50 needles.

Tripwire a wire for setting traps. It can also be used to strangle unsuspecting enemies. Looping the wire about an enemy's throat will inflict damage over time for 10 seconds before Face releases the enemy. Upon releasing the enemy, the enemy will often feel a brief weakness and collapse in a knock down.

Smokebombs are actually an illusion ability. Face will throw down a smoke bomb and seemingly warp behind an enemy who is within 5 meters of himself. He can also use this ability to make an escape, choosing to warp 5 meters away from his enemies. The smokebomb can also be lobbed at an enemy to create a distraction for the assassin to take advantage of them. If the smokebomb is used on an ally, then it instantly reduces aggro on that ally.

Ninja Clones are created using illusion magic. Six copies of Face will manifest in a ring around an enemy, and all six copies with rush the enemy, closing the circle and inflicting the total physical damage of six Faces.

Friendly Impersonation is when Face uses his racial ability to shape-shift and impersonate an enemy’s familiar. The impersonation is so accurate that it is difficult to tell if he is an impostor or not. Face has used this ability to not only destroy an entire enemy team but to excite paranoia within a group, thus which usually results in them all killing each other. He can use this ability to infiltrate heavily guarded fortresses and tombs. It is very risky for someone can always figure him out before he can make his move.

Knock On Wood is when Face substitutes his immediate position with an object found within his vicinity. It may be a twig. It may be a chair. Whatever it is, it’s not Face so…in your face! The ability is very handy when wanting to avoid life or death situations. Face will normally save this ability solely for those situations for its cooldown is ridiculous.

Shadow Clone Face can create a dark clone of himself that will fight alongside him, mimicking his moves. The clone only lasts for 30 seconds before it will vanish. While the clone is active, if an enemy takes damage from it, the clone deals the same damage as Face. The clone is recognizable for it is black in appearance.

Prop is an illusion ability where Face will take on the form of a stationary object. It can be a chair, tree, bucket, etc. The ability will remain active for as long as Face doesn't move or suffer harm.

Meditation is an ability where Face will sit cross-legged on the ground and descend into deep meditation. While he is meditating, his HP and MP will quickly regenerate. As long as Face is not disturbed from his meditation, he can restore his health and mana to 100%. Due to being a level 100 character, it takes 10 minutes for his bars to be fully restored.

Pickpocket a very basic pick-pocketing skill that the Rogue learns right off-the-bat. With pickpocket, Face can use his already advanced ninja abilities to sneak up on an unsuspecting victim and steal 1 item from their inventory. It is handy for if ever he needs more items after his own inventory is depleted.

Basic Lockpick Face can unlock novice level treasure chests and doors.

Adrenaline (Buff, Self, All) increases the individual or party’s attack speed and critical chance by 15% for 30 minutes.

Chakra Gates (Buff, Self)Face will perform a series of hand positions, while a surge of ki rises beneath his feet. He opens the chakra gates that grant him an increase in physical damage by 5%.

Ki Sense (Passive) Face can sense the ki of an enemy and determine if the risk is worth it or not.

Feather Step (Passive) Being an assassin, Face can move around without making a single sound. It makes stalking more effective.

Limber (Passive) Face’s class relies heavily on dexterity. As a bonus, he is granted an increase in evasion and accuracy.

Back Stab (Passive) While other players may find backstabbing cowardly, as an assassin, Face gets a bonus on damage so suck it!

Ninjutsu (Passive) Being a Ninja, Face automatically is capable of performing the art of ninjutsu to compliment his deadly arts.

Blind/Silence Invalid (Passive) Face cannot be blinded because he has no eyes to blind. He also cannot be silenced for he has no mouth.

How a normal human would view me: Others are always fearful of an assassin, especially a doppleganger assassin. People are wary of him but that’s okay because he doesn’t like people any way.

Name: Katelyn Illyr
Age: 31
Gender: Female
Bio: Katelyn was an ordinary police officer in a small town where the most notable things to happen are the odd traffic accident or public drunkenness. She craves some sort of excitement in her life.

In Yggdrasil she could be whatever she wanted and Katelyn threw her whole self into this game. Under the guise of the Death Knight Kallahar she was a hardcore roleplayer without exception. In all of the years of playing there was never any mention of real life or break from the character she had created for herself. Every job choice was tailored towards adding to this.

Even within her own guild there was no mention of her real life interests or hobbies. There was nothing but the game. Within the guild her own created NPC was a paladin that her character bore a great deal of enmity towards, which was reciprocated. Needless to say her life within the game was a great deal more interesting than her own life, doing much to relieve the day to day tedium.

The character Kallahar is an honorable knight that reveres death as an inviolable law of the world, one that requires swift retribution for any violation. Of course, she is not above looking the other way in the case of her allies.

The Avatar
Name: Kallahar
Appearance:

Under the helmet is lank, black, greasy hair and a pale, unmarked face. Not entirely unattractive but maybe a bath might be in order. She stands at nearly 7 feet in her armour.
Race: Human
Gender: Male => Female in the New World
Character Level: 100
Alignment: -200
Job Class: Fighter
Subclass: Dark Knight, Death Knight, Mounted Knight, Others
Fighting Style: Area and single target damage, team buffs and self buffs. Fights from Horseback or on foot. She protects her allies at risk to herself.
Strengths: High physical damage, medium defense. Can buff allies with the same dark energy that empowers her own attacks. This character is built around constantly gaining back lost health through dealing damage and stealing health from enemies.
Weaknesses: Weak to holy type damage. Her Dark Knight abilities are fueled by using up her own hit points. Kallahar has little in the way of ranged attacks.

The Death Knights reverence of death means that she bears an enmity towards undead that still bear their souls, will make no move to revive fallen allies and make no move to revive herself. The Dark knight class carries its own code of conduct to treat enemies with respect and to fight honorably. These are not game mechanic restrictions but are self imposed.
Equipment:

• Bloodseekers Blade: Attacks steal a portion of the targets life equal to a fraction of the damage dealt through physical attacks.
• Profane Plate Armour: The black armour of a disgraced paladin. Aside from it's high magical and physical defense, it also allows an additional Profane Aura to be activated.
• Bleeding Heart Amulet: an endlessly bleeding heart on a chain. Stores excess healing to allow the bearer to be healed beyond their maximum health value, up to double.
• The Black Charger: An undead mount covered in dark armour that is unique to Kallahar.

Abilities:

• Profane Aura:_Passive Emit a selection of unholy auras (default of two maximum). These can be switched at any time after a short delay.
  • Soulflay Aura(2 slots): (Enemies, allies, self) Deals damage equal to one percent of the total health pers second to those affected. Undead are healed for that amount instead.
  • Unholy Vigor: (Allies, self) apply an unholy damage bonus to the attacks of those affected.
  • Unholy Strikes: (Self) Apply a greater damage bonus to her own attacks.
  • Deathwind: (Enemies) pushes back against enemies and reduces the amount of damage they deal.
  • Etherfloat: (Self) The Death Knight floats above the ground, gaining a movement speed bonus and falling slowly from great heights.
• Deaths Blessing:_active Used with the offhand, deals unholy damage to a target on contact and heals the user for the amount dealt. Affected by Bloodbane.
• Bloodbane:_passive Recently taken damage is added to the Dark Knights next attack. If no damage has been taken since the last attack then the knight loses health equal to half of it's remaining total to add to the damage. This is applied to every attack.
• Issue Challenge:_active Issues a challenge, gaining a damage bonus against the target if they do not attack the user within 5 seconds.
• Intercept:_active The knight puts theirself in the path of an attack meant for an ally, taking the damage instead. Damage taken while performing this ignores half of her armour rating.
• Duskwave:_active Projects necrotic energy ahead of her, damaging enemies and healing her for a portion of the damage dealt.
• Hellbound Fervor:_passive Continues fighting after reaching 0 HP. The time the user remains alive depends upon how much health remained before the killing blow was struck. Being killed from full health lets the user remain active for a full minute. All healing received in this state is negated.
• Mounted Knight:_passive Allows a greater control over mounts and the use of any abilities in combat while mounted.

How a normal human would view me:
There's something not right about her. How she stands, acts, and how she looks at people like simple objects. She projects the same aura as a graveyard or mausoleum. Without a doubt, this is not a person to be crossed.

Name: Sapphire
Appearance: Yggdrasil
Race: Ether Elemental - heteromorphic
Gender: Female
Character Level: 80
Alignment: 5
Racial Class:

• Elemental (15)
• Daughter of Mana (10)

Job Class:

• Knight (15)
• Fighter (15)
• Champion (10)
• Guardian (10)
• Wizards’ Bane (5)

Fighting Style: Melee. Sapphire fights at point blank, using ludicrous physical strength and a massive two-handed sword.
Strengths: Physical strength of monumental proportion. A host of sword-based classes and skills for melee combat. Sapphire also has wings she can unfold in order to close the distance between herself and an opponent. And an overly-cautious creator managed to add an anti-magic class to her repertoire, though admittedly it is limited to self-preservation.
Weaknesses: Sapphire can’t fight at a range in the slightest; she has to be point blank.
Equipment/Abilities Worthy of Note:
Equipment

• Faith – a massive, double-edged sword with a long handle. It weighs enough that a normal human couldn’t even lift it off the ground. Runes light up along the blade whenever Sapphire engages in battle, declaring the ultimate triumph of its wielder in a language long lost. There are other times when the blade will speak this way, as well, but none but Sapphire know what it is saying.
• Hope – Sturdy platemail built to balance defense with maneuverability.

Abilities

• Heart and Soul (passive) – Sapphire can sacrifice MP in place of HP.
• Sent From Heaven (active) – Materializing her wings, Sapphire charges straight forward with a massive burst of speed, traveling just faster than sound.
• The Ten I See (active) – A combination attack of ten strikes in rapid succession, almost guaranteed to break through an enemy’s defenses.
• Sweet Nothings (active) – Words of encouragement cover Faith’s blade, granting everyone nearby with a positive alignment (friend or foe, or even mob) a temporary boost in alignment, attack, magic attack, and agility.
• Cold Shoulder (active) – Targets a magic caster who is currently targeting her (or the area she is in). Interrupts the spell, stopping it and stealing 10% of the MP cost but returning 75% of the consumed MP to the caster. The spell is still sent into cooldown. Requires line-of-sight. Only works on spells, not on martial arts or on items.

How a normal human would view her: A fair, possibly even beautiful girl with strange, blue hair. Oddly quiet, though, and disappointingly expressionless. Hopefully none of the normal people learn how freakishly strong she is; that would make it readily apparent she wasn’t human.

Bio/Lore: Once upon a time, in the land of Yggdrasil, there played a healer of amazing skill. His abilities were powerful, his classing was devoted to the role, and his loyalty to friend and guild was unwavering. This player called himself <==|-Guy-|==>.
Lots of people disliked him.
Why? Because with all the pros, there was one massive, irritating con: he never stopped flirting. Never. Girls in the guild, maidens at the market, sheilas at a show—every female he found faced his flirtations. A lot of them were angry about it, though a few of his closer friends just smiled and shut him down mercilessly.
Well, the time came when Guy embarked on an epic quest to create his own NPC. As a healer, he wanted someone who could stand on the front lines for him. It needed to be someone physically strong, but hopefully with some skills to compliment his own role. And unquestionably it would be a female—one who wouldn’t slap him, unleash her most powerful attacks upon him, or nag. Thus, after much time and effort, Sapphire was born.

The final days of Yggdrasil came. Guy was determined to be a part of it right up until the end, but just days before the shut-down an emergency arose and he wouldn’t be able to log on again. He turned to his sort-of friend and guildmate, SpringPuppy, with a simple request.
“I can’t be there myself, but I can at least be there in spirit. Will you take Sapphire with you? Then, in a way, I’ll feel like I was still a part of it.”
Now independently mobile, Sapphire still follows the man her creator entrusted her to. She says very little, often giving one-word or even no-word responses. Very little will faze her, particularly in personal interactions. She is very obedient and will do as her new leader commands, but left to herself Sapphire currently chooses to value life. It’s unspoken (most of her thoughts are), but Sapphire appears to have a mission, or a personal goal, within this new world.

Theme:

Name: Revenmar Veyas



Yggdrasil/New World: YGGDRASIL

Race: Human

Gender: Male

Character Level: 70

Alignment: 0

Job Class: Warrior
Paladin (10)
Shield Lord (5)
Armored Mage (10)
Knight (15)
Other (30)

Fighting Style: Revenmar was created as a tank. He uses a very large sword and a very large shield. He knows a few magical spells that he can use to bolster allies or himself and take more damage.

Strengths: Revenmar has great offensive and defensive capabilities and his attacks can be quite deadly when he gets a hit off. His large stature makes him very imposing for those that do not know his capabilities. He is also quite resistant to many physical attacks and has a large amount of hit points. He refers to all of the player characters as Gods.

Weaknesses: Even though he can use a little bit of magic, he is weak to it and can be damaged a lot easier than with physical attacks. He is also quite slow and cannot react fast enough to agile opponents and those that are above him in level. Because he is an NPC, he doesn't really know what to do with himself half of the time.

Equipment/Abilities Worthy of Note:

Dominion Aspect(Legendary) - A Sword equipped to him by the creator. Revenmar's most notable possession, as it was elegantly crafted and imbued with great magic. It is a holy weapon that deals massive damage to the undead, while still holding its own in a battle against the living. It is quite the beautiful sword but one of its permanent is disguise weapon, so it always looks like a plain old sword but still holds its power.

Black Knight Armor(Relic) - This armor gives him attack and agility boost whole being worn. Also gives off a minor intimidation aura. Perhaps another intention by his creator but if one saw him, then they would probably think the opposite of a paladin knight.

Ring of Saints(Relic) - This ring is just a simple gold band on his right index finger. After his sword, this is probably another treasured gift that he uses quite well. It allows him to minor heal those that have been wounded by undead and other creatures of undeath.

Shield of Divinity(Legendary) - This shield was a trophy given to Veyas to suite his abilities. It is a impenetrable wall of palatinum with the insignia of a gryphon on it's front. It boosts the defensive abilities of the wielder, allowing them to take massive hits. It took has been disguised too look like nothing more then a common black knight shield.

Cape of Silence(Legacy) - This white cape allows the wearer to walk silently, as if they were not wearing armor or other burdening materials.

How a normal human would view me: As a very imposing figure.

Bio/Lore: Revenmar Veyas was created by the god, Lord Dagartopoli in the attempt at making him the opposite of himself. Dagartopoli was actually a black guard human who had no love for paladins but thought it would be funny to experiment. Dagartopoli was one of the guilds protectors, as in he usually just made sure nothing was amiss and when they were invaded he would fight to the very end in protecting his home. He labored for almost a five months to get the necessary materials to create him, knowing that he could have done it in half the time with his guild's help. He wanted to feel a sense of accomplishment on his own and that was his reasoning behind it. When those tasks were finally done, he was extremely satisfied with Revenmar but chose to disguise all of his equipment to make him look evil. This was a parallel to Dagartopoli, who actually disguised all of his armor and weapons to look like that of a paladin. He might have been very twisted.

Outside of YGGDRASIL, Lord Dagartopoli was actually just Logan Gale. His family had moved from North America to Japan when he was young and because of that he was able to learn Japanese easily. He never told anyone why his parents had decided to move there but he knew that it was because of financial trouble back home, and they had thought it a good idea to deal with mega-corporations. Needless to say, he didn't see his father very much anymore due to all the work he had to do. Even so, about a year before the servers would shut down, he gotten a job and had little time anymore for games. On his last day upon the server, he told his guild-mates to take care of each other and all that they had accomplished. He hasn't been seen since and the others don't even know if he is alive or not.

Revenmar was then just left in his old room, occasionally visited by the other creators, to look at his settings and what not, but he was never really tampered with. Those that did look at his details would find that there was a ton of information there, straight down to his favorite food. The one interesting thing to note was that Lord Dagartopoli had written that Revenmar, "Will always follow orders from those he deems superior, even if it conflicts with his moral compass." They had guessed that Dagartopoli had never gotten over his hate for paladins and it was his last testament to his creation. Revenmar Veyas would occasionally come out of the room if the guild was under attack and fight to protect the home he knew.

Back then he was just another NPC, lifeless and cold but now that YGGDRASSIL has been "shut off", he is full of life and thought. The real question is, how will he handle this new world and especially, those that aren't alive.

Other: He misses his creator but doesn't know that he was evil.

The Watcher's Longbow: This longbow was earned from the epic story questline, "The Watcher's Final Days" resulting in the unique title "the Watcher" being earned along-side the longbow as a weapon. This quest was known to be one of the hardest to complete in Yggdrasil's hayday, and Vander rose to the challenge simply to test himself. The bow has excellent stats, however they are not the most powerful in the game. The bow has a powerful unique effect especially for a tracker: for an entire day so long as an arrow has been fired from this bow the Watcher knows which direction the arrow is at all times. Distance still needs to be calculated through basic trigonometry or just walking towards the arrow.

The Replicating Quiver: Once a day this quiver fills itself with 24 arrows so long as there is one inside. These arrows have the same effect as the original not counting ointments such as poison.

Whisper: This curved dagger is a crafted reward from a player-run guild vs guild tournament run by the server's biggest merchant and crafting guild. They ended up barely winning in a knock-out drag-out battle. The blade was best suited for assassins, however with the Watcher's active camouflage ability and lacking a decent melee weapon at the time he ended up with the blade.

Active Camouflage: While in natural terrain when using his active camouflage ability, the Watcher is nearly invisible to the untrained eye while not moving. Movement causes a slight distortion as it adapts to the new surroundings. It does work in more urban environments, however it only works when he is not moving at all and it takes longer to activate.

The Watcher's Eye: Earning the Watcher title also granted Vander the unique ability known as "the Watcher's Eye". This is a passive ability that highlights the best trails to traverse that a even a trained eye would have some difficulty seeing. He can also see the trails of all creatures that traversed a natural environment and even detect how old the trails are. While it does not directly let him see invisible opponents he can without too much trouble track their movements as long as they cannot hide their movements at a high level.

• Age: 19
• Gender: Female
• Name: Ha Yun
• Bio:
  Due to her low self-esteem and not being confident about her own appearance (mainly due to her height (1,80m) which was much higher than the average. Other than that, she was considered to be a very beautiful woman), she underwent a treatment, which included playing games in order to "create" the ideal self image as an avatar, and with time, accept her own appearance. Not surprisingly, she started to like playing games and even after the treatment ended, she continued doing so. They were always so more fun and lively than the normal world.
  
  People in real world tired Ha-Yun... Always wearing masks, living lies, never being honest with others and themselves. It was just like they... forgot they were lying and started to live their own lies... Ironically, in MMOs, where one could wear a "virtual" mask and be completely anonym, people were so more.... honest. They lived how they really wanted to live in the real world, they seemed so more happy and healthy. That was exactly why Ha-Yun started to like MMOs and other games. For her, games were more than just a hobby, they were a way to run from the pressure from real life, a place where she could dance without suffering the pressures from doing it professionally and just be happy.
  
  Every new game that promised to be more "lifelike" and real you could expect her to be playing it. Every day, after the endless activities she was forced to do she locked herself in her room and did the only thing that made her happy: immersed herself in the virtual world and forgot about everything.
  
  Ha Yun discovered Yggdrasil when some online friends started playing it and invited her. She immediately became fascinated by the sheer complexity and content of the game. There were so many things to do, so many different classes, both the PVE and the PVP aspects of the game were so interesting that it quickly became the only MMO she played.

The Avatar:

• Name: Nyna, The Moon's Shadow
• Race: Demi-Human, Rabbitmen
• Gender: Female
• Appearance: Her dark skin, blonde, longhair and the rabbit ears on her head coupled with her lean, elegant body and the fact that she doesn't cover her body that much (she needs to move freely and cannot carry too many things because of her fighting style) give her an exotic, almost mesmerizing beauty. On Yggdrasil, people often stopped to see her avatar, saying that it was very well done, but on the New World, every time she goes to a city or somewhere with a lot of people, its almost impossible to remain unnoticed, as her exotic appearance attracts a lot of stares.
• Level: 100
• Alignment: -50
• Racial Class:
  - Beastmen (15)
  - Rabbitmen (15)
• Job Class:
  - Sword Dancer (10)
  - Sword Master (10)
  - Ninja (10)
  - Duelist (15)
  - Rogue (15)
  - Moon's Shadow (5)
  - Others (5)
• Fighting Style: Instead of invisibility and stealth, Nyna focus entirely on agility and mobility, going as far as to use her mobility to make her strikes have a big impact even if she isn't that physically strong. The Lunar Edge is a rather heavy weapon, due to its weight, but with the certain techniques, footwork and control of your own body, she is able to move extremely fast with it. Using her entire body as a weapon together with the Lunar Edge, she uses her legs to throw powerful kicks together with the blade, this makes her fighting style incredibly unpredictable and tricky to defend. Its strikes are deceptively strong, and carry a surprising impact and momentum. Using the Lunar Edge is almost like dancing.
  
  To compensate the complete lack of armor, Nyna has a plethora of 'tricks' up her sleeve. Using ninpou and magic, she can prove to be a very troublesome opponent.
• Strengths: Hybrid, agile combat style mixing magic and powerful strikes. Extreme mobility and agility.
• Weaknesses: Complete lack of armor, vulnerability to crowd control effects, take away her mobility and she will have trouble even attacking you. Loud noises, her enhanced hearing can be a blessing, but also a curse, sonic type attacks are very effective against her.

• Lunar Edge [+]

  This weird shaped blade requires the user to have an almost unnatural control over its own body in order to use it effectively. Every attack with it is deceptively strong, thanks to the user having to use its entire body and mass to strike with it, its circular motions and the razor sharp edge. The unique aspect of this divine item is the ability to reflect any offensive spell directed at its user as long as the user holds it vertically between him and the spell. It's also a catalyst to conjure spells (although only from a select list of spells, such as spells from the ninja class, the "Moon's Shadow" class and some other minor spells). She earned this weapon together with a title after completing a secret chain of quests, giving her the title of "Lunar Shadow"
  
• Kitsune's trickery - This necklace further enhances the user's agility and mobility, making it able to climb and even run on walls and other difficult terrains. Additionally, it gives the user a very heightened balance, making it able to abruptly change the direction it is going even in the middle of a dash.
• Shin guards of the Gyokuto - These light shin guards are the only piece of armor that Nyna wears. They offer a good resistance against physical attacks, gives the user an almost unending stamina and makes the target immune to the 'slow' effect (but not other movement impairing effects)

• Sun and Moon: The Lunar edge possesses strange powers. By passing her body through the blade, Nyna is able to create a solid clone to attack with her. The copy has the same strength as her, has the same equipment, but every attack and debuff that her or her copy suffer will be carried over to her main body and doubled when the ability ends.
• Danse Macabre: Nyna throws the Lunar Edge towards her targets, the lunar edge bounces in the air multiple times (almost like if it was inside an invisible box with her target) , with an incredible speed. This 'box' has an area of 10x10m. The box only exists for her blade, it has no effect over other items or living entities.
• Irregular Block: Thanks to the Lunar Edge's exotic nature, and Nyna's flexibility, parrying and dodging melee blows with it is easier than normal blades (mostly due to its circular shape and the movements needed to wield it).
• Flicker: Very small range teleports (only 2m at max) that can be used repeatedly to escape attacks and create a "flicker" like effect, making even more difficult to track her movements.
• Soul Divider: Dashes forward, cutting the target in the blink of an eye. This ability not only deals massive physical damage, but also drains the target mana in 50% and weakens the target's magic (the mana draining effect works only once per target).
• Ninjutsu - Rai Ninja skill, infuses her weapon with lightning element. It's effects grow stronger depending on the Lunar Shadow's speed as she swings it, it makes enemies flinch, canceling conjurations and has a chance to inflict paralysis. If used together with Danse Macabre, it creates a thunderstorm inside the Danse Macabre's area.
• Ninjutsu - Fu: Ninja skill, infuses her weapon with the wind element. It makes her able to control the Lunar Edge's movements as it flies, and forms an invisible "wind blade" around her weapon, increasing its reach (something like a ghost blade. Even if you feel like you barely dodged it, it still cuts you).

Nyna's exotic appearance always draws attention, especially on bigger cities, since beastmen are not that common. Other than that, only few people realize that she is actually dangerous.

• Age: 22
• Gender: Female
• Name: Akane Hikawa
• Bio:
  Akane Hikawa, the only heir of the Hikawa group, an extremely big and wealthy company, led by none other than Kazuo and Mai Hikawa, Akane's parents.
  Being raised by such successful entrepreneurs, it was no surprise that Akane ended up taking some of her parents' "qualities", such as an extremely sharp tongue, an ruthlessly effective way of thinking (which sometimes could even be somewhat cruel).
  
  But regardless of that fact, Akane's parents were rarely at home. She spent the majority of her life by herself, and as such is a very independent woman, money was never a problem, but differently from what one would expect of a girl born in a wealthy family, she didn't receive that much attention. Her parents were often traveling or working. The only signal that they sent to her that they existed were her allowance.
  
  Nowadays, Akane is one of the leaders of Hikawa corporation and the director of a new department she just opened, focused on online games. Gaming happens to be one of her hobbies (more specifically, Yggdrasil Online), and she knows more than anyone that a good MMO can move a ludicrous amount of money, especially if it becomes an e-sport. Her new, modern view were very welcome to the Hikawa group, revitalizing it and making it catch up with the modern and ever changing tendencies.

The Avatar:

• Name: Yasha
• Race: Humanoid - Elf
• Gender: Female
• Appearance: With an incredibly white skin and wearing a black kimono inspired by the traditional Japanese clothes and long black stockings, Yasha has a long, white hair, she keeps tied with traditional Japanese hair sticks.
• Level: 100
• Alignment: -100
• Racial Class: Humanoid - Elf
• Job Class:
  - Gunner (15)
  - Sniper (10)
  - Stalker (10)
  - Elementalist - Air (10)
  - Disciple of Disaster (5)
  - World Disaster (5)
  - Spell Sniper (5)
  - War Wizard (10)
  - Etc. (30)
• Fighting Style: Yasha is a long-extreme range specialist while using her rifle. Her firepower is undeniable with it, as she can either shoot precise, magic projectiles (which she is able to imbue with elemental spells and change their property), bombard her enemies with spells or even go as far as to shoot living magic artillery shells while using a specialized spell to assist her with the trajectory and to have an almost complete view of the battlefield.
  
  Yasha has also some wind spells focused only on utility and mobility, giving her means to run away if someone gets too near her. While shooting, it's impossible to hide her position, but after shooting, she uses her wind magic and her stalker class bonuses to move quickly and reposition, letting no traces behind. It's also extremely useful if she needs to run away from a battle.
• Strengths: Extremely high dps at mid-extreme range, high mobility and utility thanks to wind magic. Many people told her that taking the World Disaster class (an extremely difficult class to obtain) only to use it in her "magic sniper" build was something idiotic to do. But she proved them wrong. Yasha became a terribly powerful ranged mage, capable of eliminating single targets with precision or wiping out a horde of monsters by shooting magic artillery on them.
• Weaknesses: Complete lack of physical armor, has no melee offensive capabilities, artillery spells have a rather long casting time. Hiding her position is impossible, since Requiem Aeternam's projectiles leave a distinct trail of raw mana leading directly to her position.

• Requiem Aeternam [+]

  A magic rifle that doubles as a magic catalyst. An extremely powerful rifle, it is capable of working even with extreme amounts of magic, where other magic rifles would stop working or not work with 100% efficiency. It can shoot not only pure, raw destructive mana projectiles which deals neutral magic damage, but it can also imbue these magic projectiles with different elements or even spells.
  It can also solidify this raw mana, either becoming a pure, crystalline projectile which inflicts physical damage or only form a thin shell around it, housing a spell inside it. Upon impact, the shell will break, letting the spell out. This unique ability affects all projectiles shot by this weapon, be them abilities or not.
  
• Set of the Fallen God - This full set was designed especially for magic casters. It focuses on amplifying the user's magic, mana and magic regen several times, and offers a very good magic resistance, but it offers no armor at all.
  Originally, its cosmetic design was very different, but Yasha changed it to something more fashionable.
  Additionally, when complete, the set also offers a special ability: Decree of the Fallen God. This ability allows the user to sacrifice 25% of its max health to make one attack ignore any type of defense, be it magic or physical.

• Living Magic Artillery Shell: A devastating spell, it has a long casting time, but it deals ludicrous amounts of damage by literally shooting a magic artillery shell out of her rifle, exploding in a huge raw magic explosion when it hits it's target. This ability can also be modified by the Requiem Aeternam's special abilities with the following modifiers:
  - Fragmentation: Instead of shooting one single, powerful projectile, it shoots a crystalized shell containing several smaller projectiles, dealing AoE damage (It can be used together with the Encased Shell modifier to create napalm like effects or carpet bombing like effects, with the Kinetic Shell to create a shower of physical projectiles).
  - Encased Shell: Instead of shooting the pure magic projectile, it shoots a projectile encased in a thin crystallized mana shell, containing elemental energy inside it.
  - Kinetic Shell: Shoots a 100% physical projectile made of crystallized mana out of her gun. This projectile won't explode, but it has a big impact and penetration power.
• Multi-Lock: Shoots up to 5 simultaneous homing magic projectiles, locking onto enemies.
• Target Acquiring Spell: Toggleable spell which creates a magic screen around Yasha. This magic screen shows an aerial view of the battlefield and assists her with the calculations necessary to make the perfect shot. It's an enhanced version of the "Distant Vision" spell.
• Bombardment: Instead of shooting magic projectiles in a line, it sends 15 exploding projectiles in an arc. They hit the ground randomly in a big area, exploding and causing AoE magic and physical damage. This ability is not affected by the Requiem Aeternam's projectile modification ability.
• Requiem Aeternam - Regular Shot: Regular shot of the Requiem Aeternam.
• Perfect Unknowable: It erases one's traces and sounds, making the magic caster very difficult to detect if they did not have very high-level thief-type job classes.
• Fly: Pretty straightforward spell. By using her wind magic, Yasha is able to either fly or glide through the ground at high speeds.

Other than the exotic clothing and the fact that she carries a long, white rifle on her back, nothing. Those who are able to feel magic will indeed be able to feel an oppressive amount of mana coming from her.

Name:
Andrew Ferguson

Age:
28

Gender:
Male

Bio:
Gaming has been Andrews main hobby since he was a young boy, as a child he would spend most of his free time sinking hours into different games of all kinds. Due to this he was a rather shy boy in his school years who kept to his small group of close friends, he did sometimes wish he was popular but he did not really have much interest in partying or going out, he was always happier when he was reading or hanging out with his friends.

Andrew was more familiar with first person shooters and fighting games so it was strange for him to have his interest peaked by an MMO when YGGDRASIL was announced, he picked up the game to take a look at it near its launch without knowing how much that it would impact his life. Andrew was almost immediately addicted to the game and would play it whenever he had the opportunity. He would also spend as much money as he could on in game items and gachas, his allowance as almost always quickly sunk into YGGDRASIL.

As he grew older and eventually graduated from college he had less free time to play as he was forced to become more focused on his new day job. However he would still dedicate the time he could to playing the game and an upside of now having a job is that he was able to spend more money in the game. Although enjoying the PVE elements of the game his main focus was by far the PVP, he loved fighting with his guild and some of his happiest moments were after a well fought battle. Some might call that sad but Andrew was rather content with it.

Classes:
-Genius Spearman (lvl 5)
- Ki Master (Physical) (Lvl 15)
- Ki Master (Spiritual) (lvl 10)
- Monk (lvl 10)
- Martial Lord (lvl 10)
- Other (lvl 50)

Fighting Style:
Spring almost entirely focused his character on close quarters PVP and so his character focus on dealing a large amount of physical damage to his opponents. His cursed spear allowed him to wear down his opponent while his impressive physical stats allow him to overwhelm his opponents. Springs combat style can be adapted to both one-on-one encounters and group combat.

Strengths:
- Impressive physical stats.
- Experienced in PVP.

Weaknesses:
- Lacking in spells and magic.
- Vulnerable to ranged attacks.

Equipment:
- Child of Light: A Divine class item and Springs personal weapon. It is a spear with a range of 2-4 meters and is embedded with a curse that causes wounds created by the spear to heal much slower than what is usual (magic does not work and wounds will not heal if target is under a certain level.) and weaken the victim. This spear can also be used as a throwing weapon and returns to Spring after its use.

- Armour of the Honourable Spearman: A set of relatively simple but impressive looking light armour, it gives a speed and agility boost to its owner.

Abilities:
- Genius Spearman: The accuracy and precision of Springs attacks are enhanced when wielding his spear.

- Wrath of the Hound: When fighting unarmed this ability allows Spring to increase his strength and endurance.

How a normal human would view me:
A confident and charismatic young man, people would not think he was strong unless they bore witness to him in battle.

Name: Brandon Lake
Age: 26
Gender: Male
Bio: Brandon was born with a silver spoon. His family ran a chain retail restaurants and both of his parents were the major shareholders of it. But even thou Brandon was born a silver spoon, he was not the same with those typical "rich second-generations" that did no good to the others around them. It might takes a while to get to know Brandon Lake, but the two traits most people enjoy the most are that he's smart and rich caring.

Brandon likes to cook, and explore. Well, thanks to the support of great parents, he has managed to travel all around the world, while finding and trying new recipes to add into his list. With his capability and curiosity, there's nothing to stop him from staying ahead of the game.

About two years ago, Brandon was visiting a city in South East Asia when he first discovered the popularity of a DMMORPG Yggdrasil by chance. It was so popular that almost everyone in the local cyber cafe were playing it. Yggdrasil was described as a game with highly DOF(Degrees of Freedom). There were endless things to do and customize as a player, and this truly captured Brandon's curiosity. He bought a copy of the game and the rest of the equipment that were required for the game to work.

Brandon only took one year to max out almost everything inside the game. Maybe because Brandon spent nearly a few thousand bucks but he knew that he was a good player himself. A few weeks ago, an announcement regarding the shutting down of Yggdrasil's servers caught Brandon's eye. He decided to go back into the game one last time after a while. But he was not ready for what was about to happen to the players of Yggdrasil.

Name: SilverCoffee
Appearance:
Race: Demi-human. Taurus/Minotaurs.
Gender: Male.
Character Level: 100.
Alignment: -100 [Chaotic Neutral]

Racial Class:
-Twin-horned Taurus

Job Class:
-Berserker [20] [Primary]
-Tamer [15]
-Guardian [15]
-Elemental Mage [10]
-Alchemist [10]
Fighting Style:
SilverCoffee can usually be found in the very front of any parties' formations. He usually has the highest defense and maybe sometimes evasion in his parties or raid group, while sacrificing his critical hit chance and critical damage. In other players' point of view, he was the tank/guardian or "the guy who absorb damage so the rest can kill off enemies with ease".

Strengths:
-High hp, defense, and evasion.
-Able to increase his allies' stats during battles.
-Able to switch between a tanker and a support role.

Weaknesses:
-Low movement speed and critical stats.
-Fighting underwater will reduce his attack and defense stats by 30%.
-Most of the skills has higher cooldown time than usual.

Skills/Abilities Worthy of Note:
-[Passive]Taunt Master, when the number of enemies surpass the number of allies during a fight, his stats will greatly increase.
-[Active]Dark Guardian, in a short amount of time, 20% to 45%(depends on enemies' strengths) of damage dealt can be converted to
heal allies.
-[Active]Wild Aid, summon a white wolf as a companion. Only disappear when command or die. Player stat increase by 5% whenever the
white wolf companion is nearby. High cooldown time.
-[Active]Berserk, enemies near the player will be stunned for 3 seconds, increase the damage but reduce the defense of the victim after the
stun was over for 5 seconds.

Weapon/Equipment Worthy of Note:
-[Head] Helmet of Faded Light, a dark helmet that was found in a dungeon faraway from the kingdom. Increase 1% of the player's base defense stat whenever a damage was landed by the player. It can increase the stat up to a total of 8%.
-[Body] Blood Infused Silver Chestguard, a cursed chestguard that will absorb blood of the fallen victims of the wielder. Increase 1% of the player's attack damage for every 3 enemies killed by the player within 5 seconds. It can increase the stat up to a total of 5%. Decrease 1% every 3 seconds the player did not killed anyone within the time.
-[Weapon, Two-handed Axe] Bloodreaper, a two-handed battleaxe crafted and modified by a professional blacksmith player. Highly increased the player's attack damage when wielding it.

How a normal human would view me:
Normal human will tend to avoid direct contact with SilverCoffee simply as because he was a Minotaur. As Well... also the sound of the heavy armors clanking, and the huge battleaxe on the back will make most of the normal human to avoid him too. If he wished not to alarm anyone, he probably will have to disguise himself, maybe with a mask or a robe to hide his "features" in order to go into any human cities.

Behind the Avatar
Name: Marie-Jane Escobar
Age: 20
Gender: female
Bio: There is no deep reason for her playing the game. She's one of the very first players who has been there since the start of the game. She doesn't spend money in this game: she's one of those honest players who believes in thorough and dedicated leveling. All her equipment in the game is earned through hardwork. She was still in college that time but she is efficient in balancing her studies and playing time. Although her parents would like her to solely focus in studying, their daughter has been a scholar ever since she was a kid and they would not take anything that gives her happiness. Besides, she deserves it!

On the day the game was supposed to close, she decides to explore the country one last time, reminiscing every memory and friends she has made through the game. Out of curiosity, she stayed within the game to see if anything might happen after the shutdown. Realizing what happened, she decided to venture out to see if there are others who are in the same state as her.

The Avatar
Name: Twinkle_Toes (changed to Himitsu after the shutdown)
Appearance:
Race: Demi-human
Gender: female
Character Level: 85
Alignment: 250

Racial Class: Harpy

Job Class: Air Elementalist
Sub Class: Priestess/Demon Queller/Support/Ki Master (Spiritual)

Fighting Style: She fights high into the air, using her powerful spells to attack the enemy at a long distance and keep them far from her. She doesn't favor close encounters but she'll use her razor sharp talons to claw the enemy when the need arises. She uses the air current, the weather, and the seasons for her advantage.

Strengths: She flies extremely fast even for her own race: she's so fast you won't even see her attacks coming. She can defeat her enemy in the blink of an eye. Her spells have a wide AOE that can cause massive devastation especially to large number of enemies and displace them far from each other to decrease the efficiency of their strategies and formation. It doesn't matter if her fights are short or long for Himitsu is ever patient, ever waiting, for the enemy to make the wrong move that will be the cause of its downfall.

Weaknesses: As powerful as she is offensively, she is very weak defensively. She can't take large amounts of physical damage. Of course, her flight is affected by her wings and feathers. She can't fly when her feathers get wet; also, she heals physically slowly because of her frail body so an injury might take her weeks, even months, to heal.

Equipment:
+ Crown of Heaven = Her headdress greatly amplifies the strength of her spells. It also grants her immunity against all weather effects.
+ Holy Priestess Kimono: Sky God = There are different variations of the Holy Priestess Kimono and gives additional benefits depending on the god aligned to it. In Himitsu's case, her kimono is blessed by the sky god. It grants the wearer a great boost in agility, speed, and evasion. It also grants immunity from medium to low-level curses and debuffs and gives camouflage when the wearer is high up in the air.

Abilities:
- Passive -

+ Eagle Eyes = It's a passive that lets her see her enemies even when she's high up in the air, making her attacks precise and almost impossible to miss.

+ Sky God's Blessing = Her devotion to the sky god allowed her spells to have additional effects depending on the season of the environment she's in. The passive that she can get also depends if the place she's currently in is weather specific. For example, if the active season of the country is fall but she is on a snowy mountaintop, she'll get the Winter passive.

Spring = no additional effect but she regenerates life and mana faster
Summer = adds a burning effect; her talons have an extra bleeding effect
Fall = power of her spells is multiplied twice; adds a whirlwind effect that blows away foes near the target when hit
Winter = adds a freezing effect; gives the enemy a debuff, slowing down their movement and attack speed
Dry = negates the effect of the enemy's equipment for a short duration; talons decrease her foe's life regeneration when hit
Wet = her spells release a layer of mist that spreads throughout the target's side, reducing the accuracy of their attacks

- Active -

+ Mystic Arts: Breathe of Life = Himitsu concentrates clean, pure air and creates a healing dome. Allies within the dome are continuously healed as long as the dome lasts and they're also purified from curses and debuffs while it does the opposite to demons, the undead, or other heroes whose alignment is -300 to -500, whether they are allies or not. In addition, she can also create a healing coccoon for a specific target that does the same thing but the ally in the coccoon heals faster.

+ Gale Surge = She lets out powerful bursts of wind to her foes using her wings. Her basic attack, she spends no mana when using it. Weather passives still apply to Gale Surge despite being a basic attack.

+ Sky Shatter: Cry of The Ages = Himitsu lets out a sonic cry powerful enough to turn boulders into rubble and blast enemies away. Enemies hit with this ability become deaf and dazed for a short duration and blown away depending on their distance from the attack.

+ Heaven's Arrow = She concentrates the air around her and turns it into an arrow. Because it's made of wind, she can make it turn in any direction making the attack impossible to dodge or hide from. When this hits the main target, it dissipates into a strong whirlwind knocking back any enemies near the actual target while also taking damage.

+ Skyfall = Himitsu channels the power of the sky god to create a storm the likes of which you've never seen before. Her eyes become white while she's being surrounded by a vicious storm. She can't do other spells while being the eye of the storm. Wherever she goes, the storm follows her, but she'll be as fast as a flying turtle. The storm lasts as long as she wants, but the longer she maintains it, the more it will tax her. The type of storm she can create is heavily dependent on the environment she's currently in:

Frozen Hell = snowstorm with heavy falling snow and strong winds that has the Winter passive; only occurs in tundras, mountaintops, or during winter season

Sandstorm Burden = strong billowing winds create a massive sandstorm that has the Dry and Summer passive; only occurs in deserts

Unforgiving Sky = a common storm with thunder, lightning, strong winds, and heavy rain that has the Wet passive; can occur wherever she is aside from the already said environments

+ Divine Intervention: Sky God = She chants for an amount of time, summoning the sky god to aid her in battle. She becomes a vessel for the sky god that lets it possess her body for the time being. She is still conscious but she has no control over her actions. Even so, the god uses her memory as means of determining the enemy. Despite being at the pinnacle of her power, once the god separates from her body she becomes deeply weakened and sleeps for 3 full days. The limit of how long the god can stay within her body and how strong it is depends on the current mana she has when she summoned the god.

How a normal human would view me: They'll either look with awe or with fear. She has a pale complexion, long white hair, talons for feet, and white but black-tipped feathers. Some people might even mistake her as a deity due to her equipment and graceful movements while others might think of her as a little cuckoo when she tweets at nearby birds when in reality she is communicating with them.

Name: Vyrmain Laster
Appearance: Vyrmain is a towering man, standing at 6’7’’. In his face there’s tribal paintings just below his eyes and at his chest a deep red circle of some bigger meaning that he doesn’t share with most. He gets quite aggressive if you touch it though.

Regardless of this, however, the is nothing much noteworthy of him. Many would think he’s just another crazy tribesman from the outer villages…. so long as he decide to remain human. His preferred look, however, sports a rather large tail at least half the size of his body, black in color and with some sort of webbing holding it together. If he were to smile, then he’d show rows of serrated teeth. These two are the first signs of his inhuman nature.

He can take it a step further by dispelling his transformation spell, completely turning into a slim, yet extremely dangerous looking dragonkin.

With a crest similar to that of a triceratops, a large snout filled with serrated teeth that can easily tear through flesh, large claws that replace any and all weapons he becomes unable to hold and more importantly, his flesh having been completely replaced by searing hot lava, covered with pieces of rock. This does not make him invulnerable, of course, but it does make it harder to hit him with physical attacks. Not because he becomes intangible, rather because weapons melt  as they enter in contact with his skin.

Yggdrasil

Race: Heteromorphic

Gender: Male

Character Level: Yggdrassil:  80

Alignment: 0 - True Neutral

Racial Class:

Dragonkin - 10
Molten Dragon - 15

Job Class:

High Mage - 20
Warrior - 10
Cleric - 10

Fighting Style: Vyrmain certainly prefers to keep people at a distance, and then volley them with a barrage of spells that would incinerate anyone to ashes, vastly preferring fire magic over any other element.

However, he is a sadist through and through. Many mages would keep their fair distance over their enemies, but true to his nature Vyrmain remains near enough to watch, and hear, his opponent suffering through it all, whilst smiling and showing his serrated teeth.

For when magic is not enough, Vyrmain also has by his side his trusty hammer, almost the same size as himself, and he wields it in both hands. He’s no stranger to melee combat, even if he’d rather keep his opponents at a distance.

Albeit, he is fairly weaker in close ranges…. so long as he remains human. It may not happen always, as destruction by lava is hard to wipe off the carpet, but if his master were to give the order then Vyrmain will release the full might of his dragonic heritage, at which point he loses complicated thought processes and becomes only able to follow his master’s orders, in exchange of gaining extreme destructive power.

Strengths: Lava. Lots and lots of lava. Due to this being his element of choice, Vyrmain is not affected by either fire nor stone, being able to tank through it as if it were nobody’s business.

As a dragonkin, he has wings but his weight does not allow him to even glide with them…. however, he does use them to his advantage in a battle, pushing enemies away or even cutting his foes with the pointy bits.

Despite his looks and personality, Vyrmain is quite smart and does not lose his head quite so easily. He can formulate and reformulate strategies in the middle of battle with little to no effort.

Weaknesses: That pokemon triangle is finally gonna come in handy. Water? It’s Vyrmain’s worst nightmare, as is Ice. And oh God… is that… GRASS?!  In all seriousness, however, Vyrmain is highly damaged by either Ice, Water or Nature-based attacks.

Dragonslayer weapons will also affect him twice as much and, despite how useful Vyrmain’s wings might be in a fight, they are also a blaring weakness for anyone attacking from afar.

Even if Vyrmain is quite smart, and loves to brag about it, he is not one for working in large teams. He is not good with teamwork, only if it is his master… and that usually involves her giving the orders and him following them.

Speaking of which, Vyrmain lives to serve his master. If there is no master, there is no Vyrmain. Not to say that he is unable to function without her being near, rather, he’ll drop anything he’s doing to come to her aid, even if it means leaving an opening to his enemies.

Equipment/Abilities Worthy of Note:

Dragon Transformation: Upon years of research towards this very moment, Vyrmain finally achieved what he most wanted. The magic to turn into an actual dragon. However, it has its fair share of downsides.

The most blaring one being that all of his weaknesses become twice as effective on him AND also the loss of any complicated thought processes.

Certainly, this could be a game-changing ability, but not one he would use without his master’s approval.

He gains most of the normal dragon traits, growing in size, upping his defenses and attack, and also gaining a breathe in relation to his primal element. He also gains the ability to fly.

How a normal human would view me: A rude butler with an insane obsession to serving his master. Would be handsome-r if he did not have that foul mouth of his.

As a dragonkin, something dangerous… something that seems out of place anywhere but a battlefield.

Bio/Lore: Vyrmain didn’t always sport the intimidating look he does now. As a hatchling he was weak, a shame to both his parents and his tribe.

So he was abandoned. His skin was a shame…. he was not a fire or rock dragon, but rather… an abomination.

Left alone in the harsh winters, near the outskirts of a nearby mountain, the dragon tribe expected Vyrmain to freeze to death, and to cease his existence in this world.

But as luck would have it in any one Deus Ex Machina development as cliche as the world itself, he was saved. Surely you don’t need to hear all the little details.

He was created by Senna to serve her as an NPC. His whole life, since his conception and backstory, is solely to serve Senna.

In his backstory, he was taken in and raised to serve. Even if his personality is not at all…. service-oriented, he very much is service-oriented.

As the transition was made to the other world, however, Vyrmain was out in his weekly errand for provisions…. someone forgot to turn that off and he was outside. Luckily, he was just about to go into the guild, so he too was transported into the New World.

….unluckily, he was transported somewhere else. To a snowy region no less.

As he gained sentience, though, he panicked first due to being far away from his master. However, and after he secured somewhere safe to sleep in, he rationalized it all and soon decided to set off in search of his master once more. Hopefully, he’d find her soon enough.
