Rules

Stats (No dice involved, this is just for comparison/fluff)

Strength (STR) - Determines the damage and effectiveness of physical abilities/attacks, the load one carry, jump distance.

Endurance (END) - Determines how much damage one can take, resistance to physical
debuffs.

Defense (DFS) - Determines resistance to Physical damage.

Agility (AGL) - Determines movement speed, accuracy of attacks, evasion, attack speed.

Luck (LCK) - Determines drop/encounters rate and rarity, critical hit chance, stabilizes the other stats (adds 1/4 LCK value to all stats bellow your LCK value, no stats can go above your LCK value).

Spirit (SPR) - Determines mana reserves, the damage and effectiveness of magical abilities/attacks, resistance to mental debuffs.


Level Up

Everytime a character gains a new level, they receive 03 points that they can spend to increase their stats at the cost of 01 point each.

The same points can also be used to unlock special abilities, or acquire Enhanced Arms -special character unique equipment- or increase the effectiveness of any already owned ability or Enhanced Arms. These uses require 03 points each, however some special/rare abilities (eg: flight, teleportation, etc.) cost more than standard to acquire/upgrade, please ask us about any idea you have first.

Level 01 characters have 10 points to spare, no stat can be higher than 05 at level 01.

With the exception of the Level 01 points, you are not obliged to invest points as soon as you earn them. In other words, you can store some, or all of your level up earned points to buy more costly upgrades.

EXP to level up and Death Penalty

To reach a new level, a player must first acquire an amount of EXP equal to their current levelx1000, then spend all those points (deducing it from their total EXP reserve) to purchase a new level. However, it's not always the best tactic to level up as soon as you reach the required EXP amount, because a death will cause you to lose half of your current EXP (min of 01 EXP), but if you have no remaining EXP, you'll instead lose a level. If you die on PVP you'll also drop a random piece of non-Enhanced Arms from your equipment or inventory. Respawn time is of 1 minute per level, though this will rarely be a matter within the context of this RP.

Ten years have passed since the disappearance of the World's Greatest Detective, the last one to bear the badge of the Meitantei, also known as the Badge of Pallas, during the investigation of his most mysterious case.

A whole decade after this mysterious event, the granddaughter of the previous Meitantei decided to issue a world wide competition to choose who will be the next one to inherit the title of World's Greatest Detective. Those invited to the competition received a letter containing but a riddle and a blank world map, only those who could decipher it would be admitted on the competition, which came to be known as the... Detective Wars.
18xx, Annabel Island, Southern Pacific

Annabel Island, a formerly uninhabited island a few days off of the coast of Southern Australia, that was the stage chosen to hold the competition between the 12 best detectives of the whole world as well as their assistants. The granddaughter of the previous Meitantei spent a fair share of her fortune to built a modern days city as well as other installations on the island, including a Train Station that is the only link between Annabel City and the Docks, which connect the island to the outside world.

Completely cut from the outside world, save for a single phone line on the Granddaughter's Mansion, the competitors will have to solve a series of riddles, until someone claims the ultimate prize, the Badge of Pallas itself, as well as the tittle of Meitantei.
Plot

Welcome all!

As you can see this is my attempt at doing a detective mystery RP (something that's seriously lacking around here), there's not much description because the story should be very straightforward for anyone that's into this genre. To put it simply, 12 -or is it 13?- of the best detectives of the world, each with their own ways of solving mysteries, be it through science, pure intellect, or even alleged paranormal means are stuck on an island in the middle of the South Pacific, competing for the title of World's Best Detective, or Meitantei, since this RP has a lot of inspiration on anime detective fiction.

Whoever wins the competition will be showered with praises and fame, as well as the Badge of Pallas, the Goddess of Wisdom who guides all detectives, believe them or not. While it's not a explicitly supernatural artifact, the Badge is made of solid gold and does give the wearer a world wide jurisdiction to investigate mysteries, certainly a prize worthy the challenge. But, is it just so simple of a game? Well, that's what we are about to find.

Soon enough...

Itsuko Kanzaki
Current Location: Fanged Rangers' Stand

""

"Heh, so that's it. If you boys get someone to top that, tell me!" Itsuko said as she hit a full court shot with reasonable easy, finishing her attempt at the Harley's challenge, feeling quite confident no one in Purple Crown had the physique to do eight half court and one full court shot in a row. What to say of a shool where P.E. was more hated than Math, after all? "Anyway, I think it's my time to go back to another dunk or two. If you guys want you can always come and try to get this Tiger here soaked. Not that it'll be easy, heh!" Itsuko gave the ball back to Aaron, marking her name on the list of contestants to the Red Guild's prize, before striding off to her own Guild's attraction.

"Now that I think about it, we don't have any cool prize on our own stand. I have just the right idea to cover it." Itsuko said to herself, once again talking her thoughts out loud.

"Hey, where's Boss?" The blonde asked to the first person she met once she arrived at back at the dunk tank, who coincidentally happened to be none other than Cassandra, who was there standing. "I had just the best idea for a prize, it'll be here any moment." Just as Itsuko said, a delivery boy came in bringing the prizes she bought, a couple boxes full of tiger plushies. "Do you want to advertise it? I'll get to my place now. Just get a sign saying that who can hit the target and drop whoever is on the platform get one of these. Five dollars for three balls. By the way, you can have one as well, we are guild pals after all." Itsuko pushed one of the plushies on Cassandra's hand, not really giving the redhead much space to deny it.

Only when Itsuko finished her long-winded explanation, took off her track suit, leaving her in a competition swimsuit (naturally the type approved for the academy's students) and got back to the tank, she thought of something. "Hey! Do I know you from somewhere? I think I've met someone who looks like you other day, but I could be wrong. Anyway, I'm Itsuko Kanzaki, it's nice to meet ya." And, with that said, began the wait to see if someone would hit the target this time, after all the whole morning only a couple people did it. Though, the offer of (almost) free plushies made the line get bigger slowly, mostly with lovers and family members trying to get a present to their significant others.

Enyo "Eins" Reinhardt
Current Location: Festival Grounds

""

"Oh, yes. I'm enjoying it, mom." Enyo, better known by her nickname "Eins", because she was the first born between the two youngest of the Reinhardt family's progeny, answered her mother's question with a decisive tone. It had been a few weeks since Eins left for their home country, to recalibrate her prostheses as usual for every year, while she was in her growth period, but it looked like it was an eternity ever since then. The stories Eins heard about the treatment her sister was going through while she was away, made Eins incredibly sad and angered that she couldn't be here to help Eris go through it.

"By the way, if you want to see Eris, she must be around the Gym. We have each other's GPS data, as you know." Eins had a faint smile in her face. In fact she had quite a bit more than just Eris' GPS data and contacts. The older of the Reinhardt twins was quite a good hacker, even if she couldn't hold a candle to the likes of CC and the Sweepers heads, but that was not what Eins was interested in after all; she did hacking as a pastime, instead of a way to cheat at Deep Ground like everyone else. "Oh, and the Computer Research Society will be holding a quiz competition. I don't wanna brag, but we got quite a good prize for the first place."

To say the truth, if Hildr kept tabs f her daughter's credit card expenses, she could have a good idea of what said prize was, since Eins had recently bought a few cheap smartphones and tablets, along with the reserves for a family on a thermal springs spa hotel for a whole weekend and put all that under the name of Purple Crown's Computer Research Society.

"By the way, I know that Gunnr is here as well... somewhere but, do you think that person came as well? I mean, I try to get him to come, but you can never be too certain. I swear, he and Eris are more like one another than any of us, that's why their stubbornness made them butt heads before." Eins gave out an exasperated sigh, before biting at the strawberry crepe she just got from the Soleil when they went through there.

God's Shattering



"That was a foolish move, Knight. Even with your allies helping you wouldn't be able to bring me to submission and discard the blade that could level the scales in favor of a common footman's spear?" Tegonay brandished his sword with fury, tanking Jesse's blows head on without a hint of fear or hesitation.

The wall of flames of Chen's threat did little to slow the armored hulk as he grabbed the tip of Jesse's spear and pulled him closer for a pommel hit aimed at Jesse's shoulder blade. A hit from this close and the Lancer would be out. "It's your end, Knight. Give in and join us, the True Imperials, or die like a dog!"

To turn things worse, the group's oversight would pay back in an unexpected way when the Elf's corpse rose from the ground, shambling and grabbed his spear again, ready to face Chen and Fei. Now that he was from the clutches of death, passing through the fiery barrier was no problem, even if his flesh was set ablaze as he charged at Fei, aiming to skewer her stomach.

The flames however, had a good side to them as they unveiled the coils of magical thread around the Elf's body, teetering him like a puppet. Their source was the top of a spire across the square where the fight was taking place. No doubt their owner could be only one being, a certain puppeteer that even no must be grinning in dark amusement as marionette and performers danced in the mad revelry of combat, all to her tune.

Or so it seemed to be.

"Guh..." Came Si's voice as she descended the slope leading to the battlefield at a steady pace. The bell at her tail echoed a sweet tune as she waved it to and fro, drawing the eyes of the Elven Prince's corpse who seemed to be stuck in place, transfixed by Si's gaze, halting the strike he was about to perform as well as letting Fei go. "It's easy to fight when you have nothing to lose... guh. You have done too much on this world already... it's about time to leave." As the fairy sorceress said so, motes of pale light began to stream from the elf's body, undoing him. In but a flash the once proud warlord was turned to nothing but wisps of fading memories. Condemned to be forgotten over the ages, like all of this Shattered World's past. The past which Si was part of.

The snapping sound of Emilia's strings breaking heralded the departure of the Dollmaker. Never one stay when there was nothing more to be gained or entertainment to be had, obviously Emilia would bail out once the fight turned undoubtedly to the side of Fei's party. The loss of Emilia's aid immediately caught the attention of Tegonay who noticed Si and immediately forgot about Jesse, shoving the Lancer away. "What have you done, Witch? I knew that I should have killed all of your people long ago. Letting even one escape was a mistake. But, it's not one I'll commit again!" With a howl of rage Tegonay abandoned Jesse, vaulting over the flames and delivering an overhead strike at the cat girl magician, with the intent to off Si once and for all. It was about time the last of the feykind expired.

Much to the Black Night's dismay, Si parried the blow effortlessly with her staff, redirecting the force to throw the Knight back at Jesse with enough force to dissipate Fei's wall of fire and leave an indent against a massive tree that stopped him. "You two go help your friend. There's a time for one's pride... but it's not now... guh. If we don't go back soon.. something bad could happen... guh." Si tapped her staff against the ground, summoning ethereal looking hippogryffs that would carry them back to Infinitum, faster than any other beast or ship, as soon as the battle with Tegonay was over.



Meanwhile, at the sewers of the Imperial Capital, the Aquarian Twins continued to follow the rest of the group, concentrating their thoughts on what was to come instead fo talking, for the time being, at least.

In another section of the tunnels, not very far away from there, Eleonor was bent down, coughing the vicious goo that had entered her. The Crimson knight attempted to cover whatever else was left of her modesty with her hands, now that her armor had been dissolved. The sweet, known voice calling for her roused Eleonor back to the present, instead of trying to conjecture ways to reunite with her allies, or escape this maze.

"Antonia!? What are you doing... by the Divine! What happened to you?" Eleonor's initial shock was so great at seeing Antonia at her defiled state that the Knight failed to avoid the slime woman's advances, founding herself an easy prey up for grabs. "What are you doing? Get away from me, Antonia, you are not in your right mind! How can you say that you accepted these abominations willingly and still claim to serve the Imperium?" Eleonor tried to put
as much resistance as she could, as expected, it wasn't much worth in pushing the empowered Antonia when Eleonor was effectively deprived of her own means to fight back.

☽☾ Tower of Aethria ☽☾
Age of the Gods


Legends tell of a time far, far ago and a land far, far away from the realms known today. A time when gods lived among their children and the world was bountiful and plenty. Those same legends tell of the place the gods made for their home, a mighty tower and a city, a world unto its own, forever expansive and yet finite.

The name of this place was... Aethria, the seat of the gods, a land of countless marvels.

And this, is the story of those those who lived and fought on this realm. An epic tale which you are about to partake in.

Introduction
Where do we begin?

Welcome, traveler, to the world of Aethria. The newest and most expansive game ever created. Using cutting edge technology to perfectly simulate a world of epic fantasy and mystery, Tower of Aethria is the game to end all games and you has just got a chance to join this ambitious project and be the hero of your own story.

The setting of this epic adventure is the eponymous Tower of Aethria, a massive tower floating between the clouds of an endless sky. No one knows its exact size, but each of the floors can easily be as big as a whole country and each of them is said to be unique, from forests and valleys, to whole oceans and cities that expand far beyond what the eye can see. Truly, an infinite world.

Are you ready to take it on?

Plot
What unite us.

Well, to put it simply this is a MMO "dungeon crawl" RP, the characters will be player avatars on a mission to beat the challenges of the newest and most advanced game ever created. You know the drill.

However, you don't need expect a lot of the typical drama that comes from this premise. This is pretty much a light-hearted, self-aware, fantasy story, thus you can treat it as that. On that note, any in character real life interactions --if there's any-- will be few and far between. The focus of the story is on the avatars clearing the game and having some epic adventures while at that.

Rules
That do not exist to be broken.

• No Godmoding, Mary Sues, Drama Queens and such.

• No OOC fighting.

• Be reasonable when fighting IC (no auto hitting/ auto dodging, no killing/ harming someone else's character without their permission and all that).

• Be cordial. Respect other people and you will be treated equally, not and we will have to ask you to leave, kindly.

• Please respect all of the GMs. We should be the final arbiters of any dispute.

• Follow the Guild's rules for content/language. Take any improper material to PMs, please.

• Keep your IC posts at a minimum length of one paragraph and please try to write as well as you can. We know that English is not everyone's main language, but that's no excuse to being negligent.

• Although there is no posting order, please do not spam posts. Wait at least until two or three people have posted before you before posting again. If nothing happens within one or two days, it's safe to post as well.

• If you're going to leave for an extended period of time, or drop the RP, please let us know. We might be become a little sad because of it but we will respect your choice, but leaving without prior notice causes unneeded distress for all the other players.

• Everyone will be allowed a maximum of 2 characters.

• And finally... Have fun! Because that's what we are here for, right?

Characters
Who we are.

While characters posses features such as level and attributes, only two choices are of any concern this RP, which are class and race. While the options may seem to be few at first glance, the customization level of characters guarantees that each one will be unique, or as close to it as possible.

Seyrun Leviathan

"Scandinavia around the late eighth century, you say, Master Kaleidoscope? Just around the time when the Leviathan clan had moved from Sweden, to our current Norwegian home and established and we established ourselves as a magus family. That is far too convenient, indeed." Seyrun seemed a bit more ecstatic than usual. Even if the event didn't put them any near her family's land, just the possibility of studying actual Runes of the past first hand was chance she couldn't miss.

"My presence on this mission may be as destined as that of Heroic Spirits who are related to it. I know the magecraft, history, culture and layout of a sizeable portion of Scandinavia with the back of my hand. I assure that my assistance will be of great use." At this point, Seyrun's declaration had surpassed excitement. She was not unlike an eager child who desperately wanted to go on her favorite ride of an amusement park, but wasn't trying to impose on her parents.

This much earnestness may feel weird, even unsightly, for a modern magus however, Seyrun didn't cared. Who wouldn't want to visit their homeland in the ancient past, if they had the chance to? At the very least it showed that, despite her exterior and magecraft specialty, Seyrun wasn't a typical cold hearted magus. Something good had come from El-Meloi's tutoring her, after all.

Atalanta

"Babylonia? That was a name very hard to hear, even as far back as the Age of the Gods. However, their legends were not unknown. If Keisuke agrees to that, I shall lend my bow to this expedition, there's no other place where I could put my skills to better use than to stalk the prey from the land of the King of Heroes." Atalanta declared her intentions. Despite being aware that the, potentially traitorous, Walgrave was going to join the other party, Atalanta couldn't pass on the chance of joining such a legendary hunting ground.

With some luck, Walgrave would get himself killed by his own slimy hands. Atalanta was very well aware of how the Fates treat people of his ilk.

Greetings, Esteemed Rulers of the Nexus.

I believe you know what this missive is about, after your most recent "assessment session". Nevertheless, I'll explain in in case of your brains not being able to piece it together.

It's about time to put your developments to test. Fear not, however, for I was the one chose to do this evaluation. If you pass, I'll give you a "special gift" but if you fail... Well, you already know it, don't you?

The process will be simple enough. A game, if you want to call it that way. Send your forces to my laboratory, whoever is the first to overcome all the "challenges" I have set, will come out the victor. Just don't think that it'll be easy, because there's nothing I love more than a fresh batch of guinea pigs ready to be worked with.

With my most courteous feelings;

Hohenheim, The Alchemist of Genesis.
