Your Nerve Tech gaming device will put you directly into the game as if you were there in real life, allowing you to live your fantasies to your heart's content. The experience of every player is unique as the development team here at COSTA works hard to ensure every single player that logs into the game receives an unique passive ability to call their own based on the survey you took at the beginning of the application process! This power can come in many forms, but rest assured not a single other player character would ever share this ability with you in the history of the game. At first, the many options of the game's core play may come to be too overwhelming to you all, so we decided that we would ween you into the game's many mechanics using a state of the art ai companion to teach you the ropes and assist you on your adventure. Please, enjoy your adventure here in Dreamscape Online!

Get ready Adventurers, a new world is about to be unveiled to you.

Characters Sheets should look like so



Classes - You can choose 1 class to begin with from this list



To gain your passive ability, please pm me for a small personal quiz, then once I give you your ability hide it or reveal it immedietly. It'll be just for you, so try to think of how you can use it to your advantage! This is a challenge for you as a character, and trust me I have a plan for tier systems to these abilities so you can unlock greater powers with them.




Rules

*No taking control of characters that aren't yours
*The 18+ tag is there for a reason, do what you want but anything too explicit that would violate the rules of the public forums should go to pm
*When you move from in game to out of game in the rp world, be sure to clarify it with a logout message
*Keep any OOC stuff In the OOC section of the forum
*Any characters must be submitted before use in character

*Have fun, in the end that's all that really matters!

Now this 0th post may be updated eventually, so be sure to keep an eye on it. Thanks guys, I know it may seem like a lot of work for a CS but I think it'll be a fun experience to have two aspects of an RP. If you have trouble wrapping your head around the concept of a real world and a game world being participated in separately, imagine SAO or Accel World if your familiar with those, that's what we're going for here. Any discussion topics and questions can be submitted here in the OOC section.

I wasn't certain how much history was warranted given the focus on in-game behavior, so I stuck with a rough outline.

I dig it, approved. You can clear out the helper text whenever you get around to it if you'd like. I like the picture. Now that we have at least one, I'll be sure to start you In Character within the day. Once I do, we're free to start up.

You're gonna want to move that to the character section though lol

Last time I assumed it was cool to post a CS in the Character section, it turned out I shoulda posted in the OOC pending approval, so I just do this now. Anywho, relocated.

Also, yeah, I collect character art as a hobby. I like imagining how I'd play them.

Lol oh sorry, I was under the impression that it was there you throw them. I know some threads don't even use it at all, but I don't want to lose track of anything. I look forward to seeing how this character plays.

Character Age- 24

Out of game description - Will can be quickly summarized as the black and white "you're doing it wrong" part of an infomercial. No other human being has come close to him in terms of screw-ups, mistakes, errors and buffoonery. As anyone who's met him knows, he has the luck of a black cat underneath a ladder. Will isn't the type to do take it slow and can be obsessive, delusional, and hard to deal with at times. Anyone caught in the middle of his stupid ideas will think he's friendly, but will often opt to create as much distance between them as possible.

He has a tendency to hyperventilate whenever something catches his interest and frequently develops a nice set of bloodshot eyes when he finds something new to fawn over. The bags under his eyes are gucci.

Character History - After all one hundred and seventy-three of his career ideas were rejected by his middle school counselor, a young and plucky Will Nguyen was told to be as realistic as he could when planning his future. A couple of hours later, after slouching around in an old bean bag chair in his room, he had an epiphany. If he couldn't be all the crazy things he wanted to be, why not choose the most boring job imaginable! He'd work and afterwards would indulge in all the same things he enjoyed now! After mulling over which career seemed the most boring he finally settled on becoming an accountant.

Years later, at the age of 24, Will has fallen into the sarlacc pit of online gaming. After receiving an invitation to participate in Dreamscape Online he nearly passed out. After making sure he wasn't dreaming and adjusting the "You can do it" kitten poster on his desk, the office drone wasted no time in signing up.

In game information

In game username - Walker Mcdonald's

Character Race - Human

Primary Class- Archer
Secondary Class - N/A
Cross Class - N/A

Character Appearance -


*Brown hair, brown eyes
*5'5"
*160 lbs
*Walker's clothes and appearance are exactly the same as the ones in the character picture, with the exception of the metal shoulder accessory.

Gear and Stats

Weapon type - A light, medium-sized bow. The knife he has does nothing in combat situations and is for everyday tasks.
Armor - Light armor. The aforementioned shoulder accessory.
Other misc gear - An obnoxious cowboy hat like in the picture.

Strength - 1/5 (How physically strong are you)
Intelligence - 1/5 (How gifted are you with magic)
Dexterity - 5/5 (How good are you with ranged weapons, and with your hands)
Speed - 4/5 (How fast are you, this also affects your stealth)
Toughness - 3/5 (How fragile are you? 1 a piece of paper, 5 a oak tree. This effects your HP)
Luck - 3/5 (How lucky are you? Affects crits and item drops as well as your odds in item events)

Passive ability: Fortune Seeker- Passively can see highlighted objects in areas when the object exceeds a certain value, all items sold to vendors give twice as much gold, silver, and copper. The player also has better chances to encounter chance events that generate randomly by 50%

Misc

Will wanted to make a cowboy character despite knowing nothing about cowboys and the game not supporting them, hence the ridiculous first and last name.

Walker is a pretty muscular avatar, but it's only cosmetic and he can't actually do much.

Will is extremely unlucky in real life, but his avatar is decently lucky, which will probably be a running gag.

@HokumPocus

I like the Character persona he has set up for himself, I have no issues really. The silly name kinda leans into a real life mmo trope of people using silly names, so I can appreciate it. You may want to note that the character would end up reffered to by his Willwind2 username until he clarifies that.

With that note, I approve it. I'll be making first IC post within the next day or so to start us out. So keep your eyes out.

Alright, I decided to make his username his avatar's name, since juggling three different names would be sort of clunky I think. Is my character approved and ready to be moved to the Character section?

EDIT: why the fuck did I put All right instead of alright what is wrong with me :(

Yep, I said I approve it lol Just be sure to wait for my first In Character post before you begin so you the world of Dreamscape can welcome you. That will be our starting point. I'm also trying to give @Zaphias a chance to get over whatever ails 'm and post his own so we can have as many as we can when I start you all in.

No worries, in this rp im just kinda playing it fast and loose with my descriptions as it's more of a character driven plot with my only character kinda being a spaz that has to have very, very short posts to emphasize how quickly they're interacting between the two of you, as we go I'll have more characters to use and the posts will get much longer. Right now we're in kinda an establishing spot.
