Your life has just ended. May it be due to a horrendous accident, or a natural cause of death, it doesn't matter.

Yet, for some odd reason, you find your self waking up in a strange place. You are in a vast plain that stretches out as far as the eyes can see. At first, there seem no other signs of life in there, just the eternal stretch of grass before you.

But to your surprise, 5 other figures started to stir not too far from you. There are 2 boys that looked a little older than you, and then there is a girl wearing a strange ornate dress.

Confused, you began to approach one of them, the older boy, however, you are answered by hostility. He kept on shouting at you in a language you can't understand. The other kids stared in the same confusion as you.

And then...

"Translator level 1 acquired!"


All 4 of you stopped on your tracks, surprised at the sudden announcement. Although you are pretty sure it didn't sound like an actual sound you hear, its as if it came from inside your head. Suddenly, you understood one another.

"Welcome to Kairelith. Your new life begins here. Please accept the goddess Kaireth's blessing as a commemoration of your arrival."


A sudden surge of energy filled your body, slightly disorienting you, but recovered just as quickly.

"Decide your path. A second chance was given to you by the merciful goddess, use it wisely."


And then, there was silence.

Rules

  • Follow standard RP rules.
  • We're currently full and no longer accepting characters.
  • In case of death, you can start a new character. However, the new character won't have any memory of your previous character or the world, which means you'll have figure everything out again from 0. New characters starts with a new blessing.
  • All characters starts with 3 skills max plus 1 unique skill, however, as the story progresses, they can acquire more skills and on some rare occations the goddess Kaireth may also interfere and bestow them additional skills if the situation requires it (feel free to discus it with me thru PM if you ever feel like your character needs a little boost in skills).
  • Try to post once each day, or if not, just try to be active as much as possible. Check the thread as often as you can, or say hi or whatever, just so we know you're still alive. After all, its lonely living off in another world.
  • I'm open to suggestions, don't hesitate to hit me a PM if you feel like adding more details into the RP or something.
  • Most of all, have fun!

Oh also, to be clear, for Gluttony - once they defeat a monster, they just gorge on said monster? And they don't get sick from anything even if it was raw?

Yes, there shouldnt be any negative effect in consuming the monster raw since Gluttony will negate all ailments that comes from the monster's carcass. The only thing probably is the taste. I was planning to make my character a cook since he has Online Shop and can buy utensils and stuff, so if you're going for Gluttony, my character can probably cook for you. lol

So is it safe to assume that there is room for one more? If so I'd like to make a CS.

I guess we could use more people. Sure go ahead @Bishop@ERode

Btw, @Sedjwick its going to be the same start as the previous version, so might as well give Milo a combat skill so he can at least join in the fight later.

EDIT: We'll wait for the last 2 pips to post their characters before I put up the first IC post.

Eyo, got a couple of questions.

For All Weapon Mastery, does that work with improvised weapons as well? How does it interact with weaponless attacks, such as just martial arts and such?

What exactly does Luck do? What exactly does Dexterity affect, seeing how it's grouped with Magic? How much bearing does Intelligence have on a character's actual intellect?

For Plunderer, what do you mean by abilities? Do you mean skills, such as proficiency in smithing or whatever, or more like individual actives, such as special techniques or specific magical spells?

Does the Translator skill translate things literally, or figuratively? Using a simple example, if a Japanese person said "Omae", would it translate as "you" (and thus, you'd have to glean the extra negative meaning from the tone itself) or "you fuck" (which adds an extra word to actually get the extra negative meaning across)?

In regards to our stats and all, what's the average stat of a normal human being?

When we are reborn, are our bodies remade as well? Or do deficiencies once possessed during their past lives transfer over?

EDIT: While I'm at it, how many stat points do we get per level up?

@Ryteb Pymeroce accepted. Welcome! Please post him up on characters.

@ERode woah, that's a lot of questions. Alright, I'll try to answer as best as I can.

1. All Weapon Mastery affects all weapons that can be equipped, even makeshift ones. It has no effect when fighting with just your bare hands.

2. Luck affects character's overall chances to always be in their favor. Say, they'll have higher chance of finding higher rarity items (through drop or gathering), or they'll have higher chance of getting better deals from any transaction. It can also effect their evasion in fights since they'll have a higher chance of the attack missing the target (although high dex in enemies can negate this). Dex goes the same, it affects character's overall accuracy amd chances of landing a critical hit. Higher Int would mean they'll have easier time understanding things, compared to people with lower Int (consider it as IQ).

3. It's applicable to ALL skills both passive (trait skills like weapon mastery, smithing, etc.) and active (spells or techniques like Fireball or shield bash).

4. It translates language exactly as how you would understand it like it is your mother tongue. If the speaker is Japanese, you would understand everything he says like you are Japanese. It's not google translate.

5. Our stats are considerably higher than normal. An average level 1 villager will not have stats more than a hundred.

6. Should be good as new. All ailments and deformities should have been corrected after reincarnation. Although they retain their usual appearance prior to dying.

Hope I answered the questions.

Thanks for answering. I also had a question up there about how many stat points we get per level up. Or is that sort of information something to be discovered ICly?
