Premise


Congratulations! You managed to get a copy of the new Nerve Gear game Sword Art Online. All over the world, gamers are logging on to join in the fun, and you don't want to miss out. Whether you are a newer gamer, or an older one, this game is set to promise an experience that you will never forget.



You connect into your Nerve Gear, excited about entering the world of Virtual Reality. There are what appear to be thousands of other players in the area. Some people were off to the side, gathering. A few of the NPCs at the shops were talking to players. You walk to the nearest shop, entering it and looking for the shopkeeper. A man with a kindly smile is behind the counter. Walking up to him you ask "What area is this?" He smiles at you and replies "This is the first floor of Aincrad. Welcome to the Town of Beginnings."



After wandering around for a few hours, you decide to Log off, but the button is missing. Where is it? You wonder, when suddenly you are teleported to the middle of Town. A man appears in the sky, and you realize that there are other players around.

"Welcome, the Log out button has vanished many of you might have noticed that. This isn't a mistake, it is meant to be that way. Several players have already died in the game. They however, will not be able to return. For the safety mode on your Nerve-Gears has been deactivated. So if you die in the game, you die in reality. The only way out is to clear the final boss on level 100 of the game. Hope you all enjoy yourselves." the man said, before he vanished from sight.

The players around you start to freak out. You yourself have no idea how this could be happening. What do you do?

Overview


This RP will involve your characters living in the world of Sword Art Online. I (BlueSky44) will be GMing it with the assistance of my friend, Morose. Your characters will have the opportunity to face the bosses on each floor, with the same stakes involved in the anime itself: your characters will and can die.

This will involve original characters and not focus on the characters in the anime. Think of this as a chance to tell your story in the video game. Not everything will be identical to the anime, but there should be plenty of similarities for any fan. This is your chance to experience the world of Sword Art Online.

Rules

1. This RP is high-casual, so expect a decent length
2. You need to post at least once every 7 days, otherwise your character may be killed off
3. No characters are safe—characters may be killed at any time (even mine!)
4. GM and Co-GM's word is law
5. No drama in the OOC, or you’ll be kicked out
6. Use decent spelling and grammar
7. You must use the provided character sheet
8. Characters need GM approval before they can be put in the IC (this isn’t first come first serve, quality characters first!)
9. You may have up to two characters
10. Romance is allowed, but keep it PG-13 (fade to black, essentially)
11. This RP is realistic, and there will be gore.
12. Must be two posts before you post again
13. Villains will be played by the GM and Co-GM
14. Each character will need a unique color coding. Color codes may be rejected if deemed not visible/legible.
15. Swearing is alright in the IC--limit it in the OOC.
16. Contact the GM or Co-GM if you are unable to post, and we can discuss options.
17. To show that you have read the rules, in your character sheet under "extra information" please link us to a post you have made on the guild previous in a RP.

Inventory

As you'll notice in your CS, there is a spot for inventory. This is something that will need to be updated as the RP progresses, as you'll use items and receive items. We expect you to be on top of updating your inventory.

Below are pieces of armor and swords that can be purchased at shops. When entering a shop, you can ask what is available, and it'll be some combination of the options you see below. All characters are going to start off with Basic Armor and one of two sword options: the Beginner or the Basic. For clothing, you are able to select the colors for the Basic Armor.

If you are interested in getting custom pieces -- perhaps a certain piece of armor or a certain sword -- this is possible. Please contact the GM or Co-GM for approval, and you'll be able to order a custom piece at one of the shops. Take note, bosses and other monsters may drop items you see below, or items that can only be obtained by defeating them. Some of the items below are also one of a kind, and once a player has purchased them, no other players can purchase them. They will be noted as "SOLD OUT" below.

Lastly, images of any custom items will be provided and added at the very bottom here, in order to ensure the safety and accessibility of the image.

You just need to provide a url to a post you've made in another RP on the guild before. My CS is up, so if you're confused, you can look at what I did to get a better idea.

We are perfectly fine with English not being your native language :)

@sassy1085 Looks good, just finish it up and post it here again when they are both finished. Also, France is not a language, I think you mean French.

@sMoKe You put Signing as a language. I think you mean sign language and you need to be specific as to what type of sign language you are using. Since he is from the US I think you ASL, but could you please specify since each one is different. Otherwise, he is good, just finish him up.

I've gotten a few questions about what happens if your character dies in this RP. You are more than welcome to make a new character. If you are on the first 3 levels of the game, you make a character that starts in the Town of Beginnings. Any level higher than that and your character starts 3 levels lower in the tower than the floor where your last character died. This is a small elaboration, since that might confuse some people.

Also, some characters from SAO might pop up. Not going to be specific about who, but a few of them might.

For anyone working on their character sheets, the inventory section has been added. It's in the second post, right below BlueSky's. :) There are some details provided. For now, however, you can only pick between swords 41 and 45, and then basic armor. You can choose the colors for your basic armor. Everything else will be available at shops or dropped by bosses.

Once everyone finishes their characters, I will post the first update in the IC. I hope to be able to do that by Saturday or Sunday at the latest.
