Enter: Into an Isekai World

You mentioned that we're all set up to be at peak physical performance. Does that solve things like chronic illnesses or bad eyesight as well? And for 3/4ths of the Heroes, do they start off with a portion of their capabilities being beyond peak human? Might/Finesse, as an example, having flat out superhuman strength and reflexes? Or is that all based off of their potential for growth in those areas?

@ERode

It would, I imagine. Though we didn’t have near-sighted (or far-sighted) character in the last versions to my memory. The magic the wish granted your characters has imbued them with essentially the “magically peak human” attribute. As for capabilities the only one with a distinct disadvantage is the spellcaster, but that will gradually be leveled out. The three other heroes will have subconscious instincts programmed into their brains, so for instance despite never learning how to use a bow and arrow Polaris’ character has the instincts and aptitude of an expert ranger. With Defense and Might this quantifies to their strength.

They will still need to see and learn specific techniques, so at the beginning they will be the equivalent of an untrained prodigy. In the last RP, the five-foot-nothing Hero of Might picked up a thick tree branch and swung it at a goblin, crushing its torso immediately by the impact. I think that should answer your question somewhat in this regard.

I do enjoy the forest idea as it does give a sense of familiarity, easing our characters into the world in a more natural-feeling way. While I also see the merit in being tossed in randomly, I feel it might be more interesting if it was a gradual adaptation, rather than the sudden culture shock one would see in most Isekai.

@Cu Chulainn

I definitely had more success with the latter than the former.

Enter: Into an Isekai World

So I'm not sure if I should unsubscribe from the topic, are the characters that were judged unsubstantial on a waitlist or what?

@Dark Cloud

They will be placed on a waitlist, though if we get far enough where I can't explain protagonists away changes will be needed in the future to acclimate that fact. I will let you or others know when and if that time comes.

Additionally, I will also open in-world NPC character slots when they are introduced or are able to be introduced into the RP.

Enter: Into an Isekai World

Aighto, to start with, I'd just like some confirmation...what exactly would be the experience of being transported to another world? Is it a 'blink and you're somewhere else' deal? Did they all go to the isekai at the same time? Did they actually die sudden deaths?

@ERode

I have tried two different setups in this RPs predecessors before. I have not yet decided how we're doing this in this variation.

The first attempt had a portal opening up and sucking them up Super Mario Bros. style and dropping them in the World of Eferion. The second attempt had them waking up in a strange Japanese-like forest in the World of Eferion. Both have their latent, inherent strengths and advantages.

Additionally, all of the protagonists do find themselves grouped together in the relative vicinity of said forest in Eferion.

I think the goal was to find more people, haha. Ah well, it is what it is.

Enter: Into an Isekai World

@ERode and @Cu Chulainn by my eyes are probably the most detailed sheets, though I mostly know everyone who applied. It is with this in mind that I will keep those who applied in mind for other roles (or if they need to, fill-in's, though there will be terms to do so) down the line.

As I will take you guys as Defense and Might, we can move forward to the next stage which is me crafting a new opening IC post and you guys asking any OOC questions of me you need to get acclimated. I do not want to see drops in the future, but I understand I am not entitled to such things. Hopefully we can play in Enter for a very long time with little issue.

“Nothing we can do about it, tank-for-brains.” Rael mused as she looked down another corridor with about the same results as the previous one.

She didn’t blame Graves for being annoyed they were playing ratcatcher, but it was some coin and whatever else. The sewers in these ancient cities were almost like labyrinths though and Rael didn’t fancy the thought of getting lost and running out of food, or worse. Still she didn’t see the point in whining about it or going back to the argument between Benkei and Siegfried earlier in the morning. Siegfried just was protecting his sister and held no loyalty to any of the denizens that they owed a brief allegiance to.

It made sense. Up until the glitch they had interacted with the world like it was a game.

“If you wanted to tagalong with the group that went, you could’ve done that. But you didn’t, did ya? You stayed in Thorinn with us and now you’re playing exterminator.”

The blonde woman shrugged, whatever they were going to do they needed to do quickly. She did not like wasting daylight.

“If you can get answers out of it.”

The rogue wanted to interrogate the goblin. The others wanted to bring it to its maker.

It definitely seemed that there wasn’t a sense of cohesion of plans or leadership in this group. Alandra didn’t seem surprised by that fact as she looked in the direction the Tortle went in, her arms now crossed as she waited. The elf-like beings attitude bothered her, but not so much she decided to speak of her offense at his pretentious hostility. It appeared Azra took it positively, at least, rather than getting upset by the jape. Regardless, the smell of the burning pyre caused Alandra’s nose to wrinkle as she turned her head toward the discourse about the goblin.

“Like I said. If you intend to question it, make sure it’s not already dead.”
