The CS says Avatar, though it should resemble their RL appearance anyway.

Your character will look like your real life appearance anyways.

 

Oh, he said it first. Fuck you, Mors. You steal my thunder. What do you think this is, your roleplay?

@DR: Looks good, though 2 per enemy seems a bit low for its rank, something like 4 is probably more accurate. I'll assign you your other stats and such after Schmuser finishes his CS.

okay thanks. I'll wait till Shmuser finishes his CS then.

Writing Sample:

For a med school student like Jimmy, the game was more a place to deal with stress than anything else. Hitting things until the stopped moving had a strangely restorative effect on his mental fortitude. Mental fortittude being among the things a medical student needs unless they want to go banana’s.

 

He largely ignored the huge screen that opened up in the sky, thinking it was some random global event. He was busy killing monstrous rodents. He stopped abruptly when the figure in the screen started talking, it was most definitely human and the speech definately wasnt game like.

 

The content of the speech was worrisome. Not being able to log out, what a joke… Right? A bit frightened now by the thought of being stuck, he opened up his menu. The log out button was missing. He frantically went through every menu available, but the logging out was not an option…

 

It was then he started panicking, not for the more dire consequences but for the fact that Jimmy in fact had his school finals tomorrow…..

Theme: Post-Battle Victory Celebration!

Background: Jeff's background is one of a rather... dubious, nature. He and his old friend Tommy grew up together, and mostly spend their time getting into trouble, watching comedy films and sometimes running from a policeman or two. His friend Tommy managed to get his hands on a couple copies of this new game after the games happened to fall off the back of a truck a few days prior to it's release. Not wanting to risk leading the police right to them, Tommy was waiting very impatiently for the release day to come before trying to play it. And now, after being sent into the game ahead of Tommy to start working on his character, Jeff was starting to get rather pissed off.

Writing Sample:
"You go ahead and make yer character, he said. I won't be long, just a couple minutes, he said." Jeff muttered in an annoyed silly rendition of Tommy's voice. His friend Tommy who had convinced him to play this game. Jeff had even made a terrible character, as a joke. Tommy had said it was The Future, not 'The Future of Gaming' or anything specific. Just, simply, The Future. Well, now Jeff had been waiting for Tommy to arrive for so long he was an hour into The Goddamned Future. An hour of waiting around and Tommy still hadn't shown up. Tommy was going to get a good slap round the chops next time he saw him.
 

And then the sky went all evil-like and the mother freaking Dark Lord revealed himself. Also he said they were all trapped in the game now. Probably forever. Which was fantastic. Of course this would happen. Tommy would drag Jeff into the game, not join it himself, and then get him trapped inside a freaking computer game he wasn't even all that interested in playing. He should have seen this coming. Nothing Tommy did ever led anywhere good. And he was stuck with this god-awful character too!

@Schmuser: Replace "musician" with skill in a specific instrument i.e. "Guitarist" or "Harpist". Musical based spells will require that skill to be at least C rank. I would suggest swapping Will and Cha since musical based skills will usually use that as its casting stat over Will. You won't require your spells to be mage specific, once you decide which ones you want to keep after making your music skill C rank, then I will give you the numbers. Don't forget to edit your writing sample to meet the requirements I specified, then you'll be good to go.

 

@Jod: Looks great, accepted!

 

@J0ker: Once you replace the final skill we discussed, accepted!

Username: Lil'Peppercorn

 

IRL Name: ?

Age: 15

Sex: Female

Theme: N/A

Background: Plain and outright bullied in school, Lil Peppercorn is a cesspool for hate an anger. She wishes that her life was better but could never muster the courage to step out from her stigma hence her escape from real life and into games much like AO. In game, she's has never given out her real name in fear that someone may recognize her. In most times she uses these games to leash out her anger on others.

Writing Sample:
Lil'Peppercorn was about to log off when a global wide message flashed before her. A man, who introduced himself as the Dark Lord, claimed that everyone who was in game would be stuck in AO. Must be a new event, thought Li'l Peppercorn ignoring the Dark Lord's message and proceeded to logon out only to find the logout button was greyed out.

 

"It's true, logging out seems to be disabled," thought Lil'Peppercorn. It seemed strange to be stuck in game, much like those animes that she had watched. She pondered on the subject for a while especially the Dark Lord's words, "A way to escape from that wretched old world forever!" which echoed in her mind. Imagine never going home or going back to school, never going back into the real world. No more bullies, No more being hurt. She smiled at that thought.

 

"If this were all true, then maybe... just maybe it was worth fighting to keep things the way it was." She may have been weak in real life but in this game she wasn't. Now she'd do anything to protect that.

 

"I wonder if The Dark Lord is hiring?"  Lil'Peppercorn thought as she headed back to the sanctuary, hoping to get more info on the Dark Lord.

Username: Final Phantom

IRL Name: Deegan McCready

Age: 23

Sex: Male

Theme: ​Dobie Gray - Drift Away

Spoiler

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gr_eVcCAUXo

 

Background: He once was a renowned Bard in Elements Online, a protector of the weak and a musical virtuoso with a jubilant personality.

Writing Sample: 

 

Deegan rested himself against a tree, leaning his back against its trunk as he looked over the GUI which appeared in front of him, swiping his fingers across the various boxes and screens. He suddenly felt like singing...

 

​"Earth below and sky above

​Someone's got to,

Spread the love

 

The world is full of angels and demons

it's up to us to

see what's between 'em"

​

The Best of the Wild West! Reduced to a noob once again.

 

Deegan had to admit, the technology used for this game was superb. He felt as if he were in a whole new world. Kudos to the creative design team and the tech team.

 

​When the Dark Lord arrived, Deegan snickered at the corniness of the man, but the overall majesty of this...antagonist was something that he could not deny. Within the manifolds of a scarlet sky, with a black cloak obscuring his features (was he even a man?), Deegan felt a chill run down the back of his neck. He had no intent to log out, but he did watch as those curious of the Dark Lord's speech discovered they were unable to exit the game. The Dark Lord seemed to be the end-boss. Deegan was not entirely sure about the whole situation. He liked the real world, he didn't want to be stuck in this fantasy land forever...even if the idea didn't seem so bad after some thought. Who knows? Maybe it was all just a ground-breaking new event to shock the players and hook even more customers in?

 

Deegan thought to himself, "From what the hooded hot-shot says, we're all fucked, kiddos. Damn."

 

Deegan was not going to shy away from helping people, but he wasn't a leader or go-getter, he could rally people but he could not command them. This spoke a lot of his play-style: the aggressive support, the Bard who wanted to rock-and-roll and spread the love! It would be slow, but Deegan was determined. Justice and Joy, his guitars from Elements Online, oh how he missed them. In order to truly make his mark on this world, he needed a guitar...

Spending the rest of his life in world of fantasy didn't seemed that bad. How this was going to affect other players wasn't his concern.

Username: Mikazuchi

IRL Name: Mika

Age: 18

Sex: F

Theme: Archangel

 

Background:

Mika is, for the most part, your typical teenage girl in her final high school year. Her grades are above average, but she was never really on the top of any subjects. She has some friends, but most of which are just the typical "cool kids" you hang out with to avoid being called a weirdo. All in all, her life was bland, and thanks to her overbearing parents that kept on pushing her to do more than just being average, was also quite distasteful.

 

It's not that she hated studying. She was good at it, and since she's good at it, she naturally took a liking to it (yes, you love studying because you're smart, not the other way around). Yet, no matter how much you liked something in the beginning, if you're pressured to do it continuously, you'll end up hating it eventually. And that's what happened to Mika. She was fed up with the entire studying. Of course, she could not skip school or score badly on purpose. That would put shame on her parents, and she would not want that, even if her life was dependent on it.

 

So what did she do? Naturally, she resorted to games as an escape. A relief, even, if "escape" is a bad word for you. It started with simple mobile games that her cool friends played on their shiny smart phones, but they soon lose their luster. Mika wanted something more, something she could sink her thinking teeth in. And one day, she stumbled upon the LexNav and the MMO Aether Online. She decided to try it on at its grand launching date, and had been absorbed by it ever since. Quite literally.

 

Writing Sample: 

Mika's first thought when she realized that the logout button had been disabled was, "Whoever decided to do this must have really hated us gamers". First of all, one of the main reason people love gaming so much is because it does not immediately affect their real life. They spend time, sure. They got scolded and ostracized, maybe. But any mistakes you made in-game, would most of the time stay in-game. You could reset everything and start from scratch. There's little to no consequences that you would immediately feel. You're free to do what you want, and if you're not satisfied, you can start over. That's the reason why gaming is so much fun for many people.

 

Now imagine that in such a universe, somebody out there decided that it's cool to remove all those aspects. What will happen? Now the game is nothing but an extension of the dreaded daily life. People would start to fear for their lives, and stopped playing altogether. They will stop adventuring to the more challenging grounds, and with the diminishing resources, selfishness would kick in and disputes would start growing here and there.

 

Mika would not want to have anything to do with such a thing. She even contemplated suicide once, just so that people could tell what will happen when you die. Then again, the prospect of actually dying permanently without doing anything worth mentioning stopped her from doing so. With little to no options, Mika decided that it's best to leave the starting city at once and try to enjoy the game to its fullest. Should she die, then so be it. With a little luck, maybe she would respawn and people would start exploring the game more. If death are permanent.. Well, at least it would be better than living in the slums of the starting city being paranoid about everything.

 

Thankfully, however, Mika has yet to die. That's a plus, isn't it?
