[OOC] Sword Art Online: Side Quest (2.0)

[Lightbox]

Also I would be inclined to ask as to whether guilds will exist / be created at this point? And would we be able to have any of our characters as guildleaders? Since I would assume even the player guilds in this rp would likely have ambient non player player characters in them et cetera? What with the vast amount of people in Aincrad.

[KabenSaal]

Light-chan! I'll join your guild! Assuming Sapphira and Nena meet up and get friendly.....

@Lightbox

Entirely possible. Just don't go overboard here.

[Lightbox]

Okay so CS for characters are as follows. Please do let me know if anything needs changing etc:

--------------------------------------------------------------
Username: StormCrow
Age: 24
Level: 25

Appearance

Primary Weapon: 2-handed sword
Secondary Weapon: 1-handed sword

Skills: (not sure if these are supposed to be all passive or passives + sword skills. I assume due to the list they're passives?)
-Cold blooded: Party members gain increased damage
-Cleave: Weapons strike additional targets behind original target
-Find weakness: Bonus damage against unarmored units
-Thorns: Minor damage returned to attacker
-Juggernaut: Increased health regeneration

Armour of the Cavalier

The cavalier Armour set is a level 14 armour set. It took Crow a lot of time and money to collect but the stats in general are starting to drop off now at his levels.

Ring(s) -
Necklace - Necklace of the hardened traveller (+Health)
Trinket -

StormCrow runs a rather small guild called the 'Iron Lancers'. The guild isn't too serious and is setup as a group for dungeoneering together and having fun. He can be quite serious and uptight at times due to being from a rich family and upbringing, he prefers to remain cool and composed but has a habit of getting overemotional.

Trinket -

Derringer is the second in command of the Iron Lancers and has quite a laid back personality. She very rarely loses her temper or composure, unlike the guilds leader and is often the one who has to keep him in check.

[Zelosse]

I like stormcrow. Derringer I fear needs a bit of a switch on the skills. I was a bit unimaginative when it came to defensive passive skills.

Shield wall would be an ability.
Shield bash would be an ability.
I'm willing to let overpower be a passive but it will be changed to something like "hitting opponents with shield causes stagger. If a staggered opponent is hit with a shield, they are knocked prone instead"
That work for you?

[BlackPanther]

@Zelosse
Shall I pop Ikanus into the character section?
Wasn't sure if you are doing a list or what not and didn't want to take a spot that you may have wanted for it

[Zelosse]

Doesn't matter to me at this point

[KabenSaal]

So, wait. Sapphira isn't coming back?

@Zelosse

Okay so the skills are made up of a mix of 'sword skills' (abilities) and passive skills? If so would you like me to split them into passives and non passives? As for the changes to overpower I certainly think that could work nicely.

So, wait. Sapphira isn't coming back?

@KabenSaal

You'd have to ask Pyro about that wouldn't you? Since It's her character.

[KabenSaal]

........huh........Pyro. Yea....sorry!

[Zelosse]

Kinda small crowd. I was hoping for more. Oh well!
I'll whip up an IC post likely tonight or tomorrow. Workin' today.

[KabenSaal]

People were probably jarred by the new thread and didn't even bother checking up for the new one.

[Zelosse]

These things happen. Nobody appreciates the finesse

[Lightbox]

@Zelosse Perhaps most have not yet seen it?

Also a reply on my slight confusion with the skills and such would be lovely if it's not too much trouble! ;) Then I can stick the CS's onto the correct thread.

[Zelosse]

@Lightbox I figured you had already answered the question yourself. my bad

[Lightbox]

@Zelosse Oh I have? I was just asking to clarify! If I am correct though I shall make sure to sort that out :)

[Lightbox]

Derringer and StormCrow added to the character section. I'll likely get up an IC post for them tomorrow after Zelosse's. Try and do some early sections such as how they meet and form the guild etc.

[Zelosse]

If I can gather the durned time.

Also, everyone, its time to name the town names!!

Two towns per floor, and the second floor features a fishing town of some sort. Name me what these places are called!

[Zelosse]

Made an IC post. We are starting on floor four, fresh from the frontlines victory over the floor 3 boss Arache the widower. A colossal insect creature blocking the tunnel exit to floor 4 with swarms of towering armored spiders. 13 front line fighters had lost their lives in the fight but hope is still high.
God speed.

Those curious about Blackwatch, rest assured. You are likely to encounter him if you wander late at night in the open wilds.

[KabenSaal]

I'm curious about Blacksmiths. Do they have to like, buy a house/building on every floor to keep their businesses on the front lines? Or can they set up some sort of teleport link between floors and shops?
