The Story
You are a hardworking guild member (or leader), and you live in the Guild District in the town of Riventown, trading capital of the continent. It has a nice port with the many merchant Guilds that set up shop to buy and sell with those docking at the Aerodome. There are a few mischievous Guilds planning to steal some of the cargo, with a few security Guilds patroling the Aerodome in an attempt to ward off said bandits. Riventown is also a half day's walk from two other cities that you don't go to, so you can't think of their names. Someone in your Guild mentioned them the other day... Oh, forget it, but they are out there. There's a small mountainous region in the south tip of Riventown, with a mountain range that continues all the way to the southern tip of the continent.
One day, you are going about your Guild's business, when a very large, black cloud starts hovering in the distance. Doesn't seem too odd until it expands, growing larger by the second until every inch of sky you can see is covered by this dark cloud. You run back to the guild to confirm that everyone else saw this happen, and try to figure out what's going on when, all of a sudden, This large, raven-like creature swoops down below the clouds, landing in the middle of the Guild District of town. Someone says the exact opposite of what you're thinking: "Psh, we can take that." Your guild leader doesn't agree or disagree, but quickly, quietly, and solomnly leads a battle party out to the Raven.
Who will you be? The leader that knows what's happening and leading his troops, the cocky kid who is in the front of the pack waiting for action, or will you be left in the Guild House until they return because you're only good for talking? The story will be starting- in FFTA(2) fashion- mid-combat.
The Rules
- Please be kind to everyone in this (while OOC. Play emotions out as needed in IC, but keep character feelings out of OOC posts as much as possible, please)
- No godmodding, powerplaying, and playing past your character's abilities in general. I'll take care of NPCs and enemies.
- If you're going to join someone else's guild, please PM them to make sure the character/class/role you're wanting to add is what the guild-creator wants in his/her guild.
- Please don't disrespect any comments from me or any co-GMs (assuming I get some). My/our word is final, so it'd be nice to be respected.
- Please add any comments in your post if something from here bugs you. Nothing is final yet.
Guild Roles:
Leader - Leads, gives assignments, does paperwork, accepts/declines jobs, chooses who can join, etc.
Duelist - Top pick for 1v1 skirmishes. Descent, but not excellent, in a skirmish.
Tracker - Effective at hunting down and killing monsters. Usually goes on monster hunting quests.
Gatherer - Very perceptive and is first to be sent on missions focused on collecting or retrieving items.
Healer - Your main job is healing and/or buffing your allies. Always advised to have at least one in a skirmish party.
Tank - Tough-skinned individuals with high power who are best for defending a position. Typically sent on escort missions.
Ranger - Excellent at ranged battle, picking and debilitating enemies from long distances, but a bad idea to get in their faces.
Sorcerer - Mage tank, throwing out heavy hitting offensive spells and taking spells like they're a level 1 magic missile.
Debilitator - Your job is to inflict statuses on your opponents, making it harder for them to fight.
Sneaker - A rogue-ish character who avoids a lot of hits, and deals moderate damage, usually having a way of going invisible.
Diplomat - You're a talker who goes and negotiate with other clans and merchants. Also keeps track of Guild money, reporting directly to the Guild Leader.
Diversionary - Just a distraction. Lookie over here, everyone!
Captain - leader of a skirmish party. Guild Leader hands you jobs that your party is assigned and you lead the troops.
