Here's a basic list of what you all can buy from the auction.

You're all welcome

The Gamers (A Videogame Themed RP) (Reboot)

Here is the basic auction list. Note that your characters can also search the auction when browsing it as well if they want to find anything special that could be on sale for that day only. (like some people might put something really special or cheap up and it'll get bought quickly or something). Note that the price listed is just an about price. If you dig around some you could find it for cheaper on the auction site if someone happens to be selling a cheaper one. Also I will be putting short descriptions of what each tab you click on the site gives you. Consider everything below the line in this post an IC post from me as if your character is doing a basic look through of the auction's site.

---

When you first enter the site you are given a black screen which has either a login button or a button to register and make your own account as it is the only way to use the site. You are also told to put in how experienced you are in the Abyss and whether or not you are a Natural Ability User. It mentions that this info is kept private from other users and is only used to help you find purchases meant for your Rank and purchasing power. Whether you lie or not on this is up to you. Of course, you are also given a terms of agreement and all of that other stuff. If you take the time to read through it the basics of it are things like agreeing to let the auction know and store information on all of your purchases, agreeing not to attempt to break through loopholes in the Interference Law, and a few various other technicalities like not using the auction to troll or be mean to people on the site.

Once you register the place you are taken to is quite different from expected. Its all flashy and colorful like the website for an MMO's game store including with a big box that cycles through some very expensive, rare, and featured items. These items are way out of your price range for now, costing either hundreds of thousands or even millions of Yen. Its quite incredible how expensive some of the stuff is. While the home page is filled with links to high reputation sellers, special and rare items (these being pictures you click on) and other such things that you would find on a very flashy game store site the left side is filled with various tabs. When you click on one it gives you some sub tabs. Clicking on one of those gives you a list of items with pictures and prices, all automatically sorted by price and even given a rank.

(OOC: Note that not everything possible is listed here either due to the idea just not being there in my mind or I consider it a rare thing that would be snatched and bought up rather quickly. If there is something specific you are looking for or if you don't like what you see here just ask me for something specific and we will say your chara did a search to find whatever I say is either that thing or closely related. After all there may be things that I either didn't list cause they would be a bit rare or special or I just forgot to put them in. )

Books

As you click this tab a few more appear beneath it, clicking on one of the new tabs taking you to a new page.

Mystical Books

Craft Books

When you open this tab you see a variety of books that teach different skills or crafts of sorts. Some of them seem to possess supernatural potential, others are more mundane, and some of them possess very confusing titles. Other titles... seem almost insulting. There alot of low priced ones that seem to teach tips on using certain types of weapons or other basic things.

Weapons

Upon opening this tab you see many different tabs that show many different kinds of weapons. Some were more common weapons, others were more exotic like Scimitars, Kukri's, or even The purchases from Rank F were all just common weapons ranging in price from 15,000 Yen to 30,000 Yen, the ones of a higher price possibly being better quality or craftsmanship, a few of the F Ranks also being either higher or lower than that range, the highest being 50,000 Yen though. The E Ranked Weapons were a bit more expensive and looked alot nicer, but they ranged from 60,000 Yen to 100,000 Yen. There were also guns within the E Ranks, the range of their price being 15,000 Yen to 100,000 Yen as there were all types of guns that looked about like average firearms from their pictures, but a few looked nicer here and there or stated that they had a few unique customization in their listing.

There also seemed to be one time use weapons like smoke bombs, regular bombs, and other such things as well and of course ammunition for bows, crossbows, and guns alike. There were even implements here for magic users, non-enchanted of course, but things like staves or other such kinds of weapon style implements. Even some of the guns that were a bit higher than E Rank, being around D Rank, were said to be Magic Guns, but those were also very expensive.

(I am putting this here instead of a list cause, as your GM, i am too lazy to actually list out a ton of different weapons. If you have a question about a specific kind of weapon you want just freaking ask XD)

Armor

There even seems to be a tab for Armor. Rank F shows mostly just basic armors ranging from 7,500 Yen to 40,000 Yen for things like Leather, Iron, crude steel, chain mail, or other such basic armors of somewhat average quality. Rank E shows either nicer looking armors or more protective and harder to make types of armor ranging in price from 45,000 Yen to 100,000 Yen. Of course, normally it would be strange to wear armor in battle, but from when you all saw Ren change clothes in a single instant after opening his inventory it is safe to say that you can just use the inventory to instantly put armor on when you need it and instantly take it off when you don't.

Slaves

This tab seems strange. If you dare open it you see alot of listings with a picture of the 'slave' next to each one. Each listing gave a short, few word description of the person being sold and if you clicked on it there were various descriptions of the people being shown, all worded in various ways obviously. Men, women, children... all types were being sold as slaves. No infants thankfully, but if you actually did searching through this to see just what kind of people were being sold even the occasional listing of somewhat younger children around ten years old with special Natural Abilities appeared not all that often, but were still there. The people being sold were quite expensive, the cheapest, since it was being sorted by price, was about 350,000 Yen and considered a Rank C purchase.

Consumables

Various tabs filled with all different kinds of miscellaneous small items popped up here.

Potions

All different kinds of potions in all different shapes and sizes of bottles seem to be listed here. Some of these, the ones that look a little more unique or special, are put here by people, but others are listed as 'Auction Stock', implying that one could buy alot of them directly from the auction as the auction probably supplies some of these.

Potion of Minor Rejuvenation (Rank F Purchase): 5,000 Yen

Healing Salve (Rank F Purchase): 15,000 Yen

Potion of Minor Regeneration (Rank F Purchase): 20,000 Yen

Potion of Slight Spiritual Rejuvenation (Rank F Purchase): 30,000 Yen

Small Mystic Potion (Rank E Purchase): 150,000 Yen

Small Healing Potion (Rank E Purchase): 150,000 Yen

Alchemic Materials

This tab is filled with all different kinds of powders, roots, acids, and other substances meant for usage in Alchemy, all having different prices and grades, which the grade of the material was the rank of the purchase.

(OOC: If you learn an Alchemic recipe you can essentially just tell me how many times you want to make the recipe and ill tell you the total cost of the purchase as I am not listing out all of the bloody possible materials here, I am lazy)

"Everything You Need to Get Started as an Alchemist" Alchemy Kit (Rank F Purchase): 150,000 Yen

Metals

From common metals like bronze and iron to more strange metals, some of them even claiming to be alchemic metals produced by alchemy. This is probably used for people who like to make weapons, armor, or other such metal items or even need metals for Alchemy, magic rituals, or other such things. Cheaper, more common metals are lower in price and rank while the nicer looking ones are higher in price and rank.

Ritual Materials

This tab is full of other materials or items that are used for many different kinds of rituals, mostly magical rituals, but for other brands of rituals as well. The things that are not under Alchemic Materials can be found here as some Alchemic Materials, for those who have a knowledge of magic, are used in magic rituals as well.

Magical Items

Upon clicking on this tab several other tabs, taking you to different pages of items like the others, appear, the tabs full of supernatural items and implements meant to be used by Ability Users with supernatural abilities like spiritualism or magic.

Tools

Staves, runes, strange metal symbols, talismans, and other such tools needed for magic or any other mystical art are all here, these seeming to be a bit more reasonably priced than some of the other items in the other Magical Items tabs, but not by much. There were even kits and various other things as well, including more mechanical devices that were probably enchanted in some way to have some special function.

Blank Runestones (Rank F Purchase): 2,000 Yen

Tiny Mana Crystal (Rank F Purchase): 10,000 Yen

15 Blank Runestones (Rank F Purchase): 20,000 Yen

Beginner Magician's Staff (Rank E Purchase): 150,000 Yen

One to Two Hours Pseudospace Stone (Rank E Purchase): 200,000 Yen

Accessories

This page is full of bangles, rings, circlets, and other such 'accessory' type items that have enchantments upon them. Despite there being Rank F enchanted Items everything on this page is ridiculously expensive, even the stuff advertised as weak or minor. Needless to say, the things in here seemed out of the range of the Gamer's current purchasing power by a long shot. [i](OOC Which is why I am not listing twenty things here, you guys are nowhere near being able to purchase anything from here yet)

Necklace of Weak Fire Resistance (Rank F Purchase): 125,000 Yen

Weak Ring of Magic (Rank F Purchase): 175,000 Yen

Minor Strength Bangle (Rank F Purchase): 200,000 Yen

Magical Weapons

Here you see all kinds of fancy magical weapons, some of them looking like things straight from videogames. They all have different kinds of enchantments and some are even given ridiculous names. Unfortunately the lowest ranked weapon here is Rank E and even then it is very expensive, costing 300,000 Yen. Needless to say, it'd be a while before you could buy anything from here. (OOC: Which is why I am not listing anything here)

There are also other links as well to featured sellers, special deals, ongoing Auctions for things, and many other links going to many other forms of products. It would take a while to search the entire site.

Ren listened to Lucian speak, his tone sounding like he was somewhat nervous or something, but Ren just ignored that. "Upgrading your attack Skill would be good. Plus I also want to test out a few things as well, so I wouldn't mind helping you. We can use the Dueling function so that we don't kill each other..." Ren stopped speaking as he noticed a window, it being a PM sent from Mike. As much as Ren didn't like the guy and wouldn't spend time with that kind of outgoing idiot, as it wasn't that Ren didn't like him as a person as he was rather nice, it was just hard for someone cold and distant like Ren to keep up with someone that... innocent, honest, and outgoing.

"Mike says he's up for running an ID, ill tell him to meet us at the park where we all met the night before. We can grind Zombies there..." Ren began to quickly type up a PM which he sent to Mike, Sasha, and Silas, not bothering to create a separate one for Mike as he just sent out a mass PM.

PM

From: Ren Hitori

Come to the abandoned park where we all met the night before if you are done with whatever business you are all currently doing if you want to grind in an ID and practice using whatever Skills you have acquired today.

After that he began to walk, somewhat expecting Lucian to follow. Once they got there, arriving before anyone else did, Ren set up an Empty ID, looking at Lucian. It was about 5:30 PM when they arrived. "Well before the others get here, if they even decide to come, what would you like to test out first?"

The Gamers (A Videogame Themed RP) (Reboot)

Its also hilarious though, also meant to post again before you left, but I got knocked out by staying up for more than 24 hours.

Damn.

*High Fives*

With my post figured we could have some chara development between Lucien and Ren while the others are finishing up their stuffs.

The Gamers (A Videogame Themed RP) (Reboot)

Alright, managed to post for Ominal while he was still online ^^

"Good, I expect payment on it soon, a couple of weeks at least, I'm not a tyrant when it comes to tabs and I am sure you can pay it off within a couple of weeks or so." Then Saito watched as Lucian began to do something with the book, the prompt indeed appearing when Lucian touched it again and tried to learn from the book. When he pressed the Accept button the same affect that happened to him before seemed to occur when he learned the Nature Ritual skill from its skill book, Saito still looking a bit impressed by the display as it was somewhat pretty.

After that a window appeared, followed by another.

Window

You have learned the Spirit Channeling Skill.

Spirit Channeling

Spirit Channel (Level 1: 0/100 EXP) (Active: 20 MP/Minute): You know how to channel and flow your spiritual power (MP) and your spirit itself, able to use it to reach out to other Spirits or spiritual powers. While on its own this Skill does not have much use on its own it is best used when combined with other tasks, abilities, or skills. When used with special rituals or by one who has a knowledge of calling spirits it can be used to establish links between the spirits of two people or even two things. Combine with any spiritual powers one knows and it could be used to flow and channel those powers through or into things in different ways.

When Lucian shook his hand Saito shook back in return, having a firm handshake as that was a mark of a good businessman. "Indeed. Just don't die on me out there" He chuckled, but then his tone turned a bit more serious now. "Also... just because this world seems dangerous, do not let it consume your life with fear or paranoia... Anyway, take care of yourself."

After Lucian left and came outside, able to spot Ren right outside the entrance of the store waiting for Lucian. When asked the question he just nodded. "Y-Yea... I'm fine...black magic just takes alot out of a person, that's all." His voice was still cold and somewhat distant, but not as such, probably because Ren was somewhat tired. Ren suddenly zipped up his jacket a little quickly for some reason before finishing his PM. It was currently about 5:00 PM. The PM to the other three said the following.

PM

From: Ren Hitori

Me and Lucian have about finished up at Tatsumi Saito's store. What have you all accomplished today?

"So... we could either try and go meet the others or go somewhere else, I have nothing else better to do, so what would you like to do right now?" In truth, Ren was a little bored as he took out his PFP and turned it on, holding the console in his somewhat slender hands, his right hand still having the bandages over the back of it for some reason.
