This is a role play inspired by Re:Monster with elements derived from several games such as Monster Hunter, Pokemon, Ark: Survival Evolved and The Forest. When your soul finds itself in the body of something not human, how will you strive to live? Carve out a peaceful life, destroy the world, or surpass God? The choice, is yours. Welcome to From Goblins To Gods!

 

Introduction

Once, you were a human. Maybe you were a salary man, or a kid on a skateboard, or a third-grade English teacher. Either way, you're dead now. As quickly as your soul is placed into darkness, it is pulled back out. Light and sounds accelerate, and your eyes crack open for the first time, in a new body.

You're a Goblin.

Born in a small, remote tribe of Goblins in a forested island, lacking any knowledge of your geography, you are thrust into the world. While only a newborn, the instinct and basic abilities of your kind are ingrained into you. How to communicate, how to hunt, what you must do to survive, as well as inherent information to your new world. This is your life, this is your mind. The memories of your previous life, your previous world, they exist but merely as a hazy dream with the conclusion forgotten. With time, sufficient experience and growth will open the option for you to evolve from a goblin to a different branch of monster, but this will depend on your own ability.

Just one thing sets this new batch of Goblin juveniles, your clan, apart from the rest. A single facet of their souls, a single "skill" retained from their past life that they do not even know they had. Perhaps an affinity for a rare kind of magic, perhaps a propensity to lead, perhaps the knowledge of a language they don't recall learning. Will this mistake in the cycle of reincarnation lend them the power to break past their limits, or will they simply fall like wild beasts to the onslaught of the world?

Welcome to the game, and do make it entertaining.

Character Sheet

Spoiler

Name: ...well? No last names though, because Goblin.
Gender: Male or Female
Appearance: You're a green-skinned, four foot tall, ugly piece of work. As such, this section is optional, but if you want to mention some distinguishing factors, feel free. I won't demand a properly full description though. Also, I don't usually say this, but I'd rather you don't put an image, considering everything. Don't worry though, with Evolutions, your appearance can drastically change.

Personality: Describe how your character thinks, acts, and feels. Don't skimp on this.
Past Life History: This isn't that important, compared to how important it usually is. Considering that the memory of this will be hazy, "growth" that occurred during your past life won't be present, hence why you're largely a blank slate with some human-ness left. If you had a traumatic experience and became afraid of the dark, you won't have that trauma here. If you were born afraid of the dark, though, then you will. As such, the only real reason this section exists is for flavor, and to justify your Gift. Keep it brief.

Level: 1

Talent:You get two. These rare abilities you were born with, as a result of your past life. If you were an English teacher, maybe you innately know the human language somehow, despite not knowing what a human is. If you were a creepy occultist, maybe you have a rare magic affinity. Maybe you were a professional fighter, so you'd be naturally be physically gifted or skilled in combat. Just be reasonable, and don't pick anything that makes you broken from the start.
Skills: Techniques and abilities that you will gain throughout the story.

• Night Vision - Allows one to see more effectively at night and in the darkness.
• Absorption - A monster specific skill. This skill allows monsters to gain the skill(s) of the creatures they devour. The amount of skills gained in this process is limited to a 6 time usage. Choose your stolen abilities wisely. Uses will reset to 6 upon Ranking Up regardless of the amount you have used. (Remaining Uses: 6)

Inventory: You have nothing on you for now.

 

Participants

• Patch (Level 17 Goblin)
• Jin (Level 15 Goblin)
• Mu (Level 14 Goblin)
• Rei (Level 1 Goblin)

One does not simply pass on a RE:Monster RP.

 

I shall make my stupid little goblin later, or in the morning depending on how late it gets. :3

[Callisto]

I decided to forego the whole human survival idea. Kept on coming up with issues I didn't want to deal with lol

[Unbelievably Majestic]

Here we go!

 

I hope this one lasts long enough for Patch to rank up and realize he's actually a girl. I've been wanting to make that joke happen since the second goblin RP. >.<

 

Also, will there be a limit on the number of absorption's in this one Callisto? I don't see any mention of it.

 

Spoiler

Name: Patch
 

Gender: Male

 

Appearance: Patch's skin colour is a muddy green, uneven with darker and lighter patches all over. One large darker spot over his right eye earned him his name. His eyes are a deep reddish-orange in colour. His ears are a little larger than your average goblins, with pointed tips. His finger nails are a deep brownish-red colour, though some of that may just be dried blood. For someone who has only been living for a few days there are a surprising number of small scars and healing cuts on his body from fights and falls and various scrapes.

Personality: Patch isn't very smart. In fact, most would be surprised to learn that the mighty Patch has any inner thoughts at all. He is ruled by emotion and instinct. If for half a second he feels like he might like to do something, he'll already be on his way to doing it. This makes him very unpredictable to those around him. What people do know is that he loves a fight, seems to have a never ending appetite for new foods, especially meat, and unless you want your neck bitten out, is not someone you should sneak up on when he's asleep.

Past Life History: In a past life, Patch was a coward. His name was Yan and he was homeless. He feared confrontation, especially of the physically violent variety. But as a dirty vagabond confrontation would often seek him out. Sometimes they would be those who enforce the law, moving him along with a cuff around the head. But usually it was in the form of those who enjoy to target the weak and unfortunate, trying to chase after some sick sense of superiority. So what could poor Yan do? Well. He got overly sensitive to all that went on around him. Paranoid that any shadow was an attacker. He wouldn't sleep, not intentionally, just five minutes here or there when his eyes wouldn't stay open. It wasn't enough. He still got found. Cornered. They liked how scared he was. They always came back. Keeping watch wasn't enough was it? He needed something else didn't he? Something sharper. Something knife-ier. Not to use. Not to use. But. To scare them away. He had a knife now. They would leave him now. Leave him alone. They wouldn't attack him. He'd scare them away. He was armed. Just like them. They wouldn't come back. They wouldn't. They wouldn't come close again. No. No. He was safe now. Safe. Something jolted him from a fitful sleep. His eyes snapped open and he came out swinging with a knife and a whimper. He caught a glimpse of fear in someones eyes. Anger in someone else's. The flash of a sword. Darkness.

Talents:

• Bare-handed Fighting - Patch seems to have been born into the world with a great love of, and gift for, unarmed combat. He fights in a brutal style, using his teeth and nails as much as his fists and feet.
• Senses - Patch's senses are very fine tuned. He can smell, hear, see, taste and feel better that your average goblin. This is where his love of food comes from. It's also why he's hard to sneak up on.

Skills: 

• Absorption - This allows its user to get the skill of other beings that they devour.

Name: Jin

Gender: Male

Personality: To describe him, he's someone who keeps to himself. Describing him as an introvert would probably be spot on but it's not so much as him being shy, but the fact he rarely talks (unless he deems it important) or give anyone the slight indication of what he's thinking about leaves little evidence to suggest otherwise. That said, 'enigma' is probably a more fitting. He's 'loyal' and 'honest' to a certain extent but when his survival is at stake, he'll do whatever it takes to survive, even if it makes forsaking 'comrades' or his own kind.

Past Life History:

Who or what he was is not important but how this forgotten man lived, not like he could tell you about it anyways, nor we for that matter. No one cares anyways. Either way, what can definitely be said was that death always seemed to follow him wherever he went. From vague and hard to make out images that still exist within his mind, it can be assumed he lived on the streets or places of ill repute. Also basing off the images of his mind, it can also be assumed that he, or at least what one might guess was him, that he was always in the company of someone or something and there was always fighting.

 

Always beaten to an inch of his life with no weapon of any kind in his proximity, he took to picking up whatever he could find, no matter how insignificant the chosen weapon seemed to be, he always managed to make it seem like one with the way he fought. No matter how many times it looked like he was going to die, he always found the strength to survive and press on.

 

Level: 1

Talent:

• Battle Instinct: Has a natural affinity towards battle, be it hand-to-hand or with a weapon, he knows how to defend himself. He's also able to wield any weapon with some degree of mastery (average, obviously being 'skilled' will require intense training but this will allow him to be Average/Above Average) that he picks up. Be it a rope, rock or a spear.
• Survivor: He's a natural born survivor and will resort to whatever he deems as the best option to survive. By choosing to remain and fight, he'll receive a temporary strength boost and by choosing to run when he deems it necessary, he'll receive a temporary speed boost. The boosts he receives is conditional based on the situation he faces, meaning, if he must meet certain conditions before receiving said boost.

Skills: Techniques and abilities that you will gain throughout the story.

• Absorption - A monster specific skill. This skill allows monsters to gain the skill(s) of the creatures they devour. The amount of skills gained in this process is limited to a 6 time usage. Choose your stolen abilities wisely. Uses will reset to 6 upon Ranking Up regardless of the amount you have used. (Remaining Uses: 6)
• Night Vision - Allows one to see more effectively at night and in the darkness.

 

I couldn't help myself, this is what Re:Monster does to me, can't resist not joining a Re:Monster like RP. Anywho, I knew the direction I wanted to take my 'talents' but wasn't quite sure if they were doable. My first one, I wasn't sure if It wasn't pushing it and/or if it was 2 talents mixed into one. If its doable, and turns out to be 2 instead of one, then I'll get rid of my 2nd 'talent' then.

 

Honestly, I wasn't sure about where to go for the 2nd one. It was either stronger in near death (sounds like cliche shounen shit, huh?) or Survival ability to where his chances of finding a way to escape/survive increases or something like it. But I wasn't sure if that counted as an talent. Either way, I just wanted some input on them to get a better picture.

 

Jin, like patch, is also going to make his 4th attempt at life as a goblin.

Livvvveeeee.

Damn, Reading through her past life bit and damn, seems like your character was also homeless. Since that was basically what I was going for well, the homeless angle anyways. A homeless bum always finding himself in a life or death battle. xD

[Diabolical Rhapsody]

Spoiler

Name: Mu

Gender: Female

Appearance: Mu is taller than anyone else and she also has a pale green skin with pitch black eyes. Her canines jut out of her jaw a little bit and the patch of scraggly mop that can be called hair are slightly on the lesser side. Her forehead is a bot big and all in all it looks like the face of someone freshly smashed into a rock. Very unappealing.

Personality: Mu is weird, with drool always rolling out of her maw because of her jaw. One can say that she is perennially hungry. She'll follow anyone as long as she thinks they are strong but she hardly thinks so that is no problem.

Past Life History: Not much is known about her past, her visions recall a place like gymnasium where she'd spend most of her time. She was rather buff in her earlier life, a decent layer of muscle covering her torso. Maybe she overdosed on something or maybe a stone was too heavy and she burst a vessel.

Talent: Strength: Maybe it's her height, or her general physique that seems to be packing a bit more muscle than others. But she is good at lifting and throwing things.

 

Throw: Her aim is pretty good and quick. 

Skills: Techniques and abilities that you will gain throughout the story.

That was quite a transformation from Yan to Patch.

I actually wanted to limit the number of times absorption could be used. I was thinking something around 5 to 7. That way, people would be more cautious in choosing when to absorb an ability.

From what I understood, Battle Instincts is a combination of Hand to Hand Combat and Generalized Weapon Proficiency. Battle Instincts can remain unchanged, but having 2 talents fused into one will diminish the quality of each. He'd be a notch above those without specific combat-based talents. Against someone like Patch, his Hand to Hand Combat would be inferior. If you're fine with that, then I have no problem with Battle Instincts. Gladiator is fine. Just remember that the more specific a talent is, the greater its effect.

My thinking is that Patch's soul learned a lot from it's time as Yan. It has now tried to be what it thinks it needs to be to survive.

 

That seems to be the sweet spot for number of absorptions. The previous set-up's that people used, gave 6 absorptions. This was intended to be reset once you ranked up. Though nobody ever got that far. I felt like it worked well.

She's about half a foot taller and about the same in width.

I think 6 seems like the magic number. I'll edit that in the character sheet. Thanks!

Hmm, I'd prefer that she be the same height as the rest of the goblins. In the event PVP occurs, the advantage in reach, weight, and bulk (although minimal) may be pivotal given the right situation; I think its best we avoid that sort of advantage. She can get taller with her absorptions (depending on what she eats) and evolution though.

After lurking through the past Re: Monster RP Threads (Thanks to Joker), I've decided to include the Level Mechanic and Rank Up System that they used.

Yea, that's what I had in mind for Battle Instincts. Like a survival instinct where he can fight hand-to-hand and with every weapon (or make shift weapon) without having prior training or knowledge of them. The thought was that, unless he trained and got stronger with something in particular, his skill in hand-to-hand or with the weapons would be above average. Kind of like the expression 'Jack of all trades but master of none' but in this case, it's unless he actually trains in such skill/weapon (and of course the GM, you, gives a thumb up in regard to the skill level.

 

How specific can I get with 'Gladiator' while staying within the rule of cool (and not weakening it)? Like can I merge it with my Survivor idea to change it into something like, if he sustains a certain amount of damage, his survival instinct, strength, resistance/defense to a degree he can match or surpass someone like Patch that specializes in hand-to-hand or whatever? And/or, maybe something that can be used in a moment, like something you find in some games or whatever where you can pool in all your strength/health, or remaining strength/health into a single attack (or channeling it into a burst of speed to run away if an opponent is much stronger) before becoming vulnerable (not being able to attack) or worse?

I have no problem with Battle Instincts then. As for Gladiator, I was thinking that a temporary boost in strength during life threatening instances would be enough. Something like a last ditch effort to try and not die? Since its just survival instincts kicking in, I don't think an increase in defense would be appropriate. Maybe tolerance to pain perhaps? The gist of both those talents, for me, is just that they basically just enhances the Fight or Flight Phenomenon.

Gotcha, just wanted to know the limits of what I can do with a Survival Instinct based talent. Because I wasn't sure if it would be ok for the talent to be optional. Like you said, fight or flight, if he chooses to remain, temporary boost to strength, if he chooses to run (deciding the opponent isn't worth fighting), a temporary boost to his speed so he can run away. Well, not 'optional' but I guess it would be.....conditional? If the situation meets a certain condition, the boost changes? What about something like that? If not, I'm more than happy with a temp. boost of strength.

 

Just wanted to get the most out of it without it seeming to ridiculous or weak.

Situational would be the best. He would resort the best option, deemed by himself, to survive. Whatever gets boosted would depend on what he's actually facing.
No problem. Its better we clear things out sooner rather than later.

Would that be much of a factor? Considering we have a person specializing in a particular combat type and other being the Jack of All trades. Someone who just has some additional strength won't matter much. If that doesn't sit right with you, then I can always change to one that you like.

So the conditional/situational bit is cool? Sweet. Then for matching purposes I'll just rename the talent 'Survivor's Instinct'  to match the theme.

xD

 

And aye, a diff boost for a diff situation. Jin v4.0 is looking pretty good.

tbh, if this rp holds out, I think I might be loving this Jin more because the first 3 I didn't change a thing and he used the same talents and went about things the same but this time theres some changes. xD

Would that be much of a factor? Considering we have a person specializing in a particular combat type and other being the Jack of All trades. Someone who just has some additional strength won't matter much. If that doesn't sit right with you, then I can always change to one that you like.

Honestly, I think it would. Maybe not that much though. Yeah, I prefer keeping the size of the goblins standardized. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Yup, its okay with me. Maybe just calling it Survivor would suffice? Two talents with the same word would seem redundant?

All too true, me and my habit of making things match. xD
