wait wouldnt the nervegear just replace the foot with no nerves in it since it would be the standard model of the player in game

I don't think it would, depending on the way they made the system. My understanding was that tastes and smells and sensations were gathered from certain test subjects, and so those parts of the brain were programmed to be stimulated when x and x happened. Also, the bodies are in general a standard set from the game and is still composed of polygons, I'm not sure they programmed a lack of a leg into everything. They'd have to have to do some extra coding for that, and I don't think they gave players options of not having a certain limb.

So, I think it simply sends signals to the brain as if a foot was there and well and whole. Therefore, Yui would feel like she truly had a working foot, though the sensations may not be as strong as if she had never lost her foot or whatever. However, there would still be some sensation of having a working foot, or so I understood.

Basically, my understanding is that it's entirely made up of signals to the brain and signals from the brain to make a character move. Not exactly a coding of feet having nerves, but more like sensations and smells being triggered by something in the programming. For example, smelling food when you're within a certain radius of the food, or perhaps if they programmed far enough to have wind or such, it was programmed so that in x direction or when the wind variable was in x direction, the radius of smell expands on that side and shrinks on the other side.

That's just my understanding.

internet said The NerveGear (ナーヴギア, Nāvugia?) was created by Argus. It only has a single interface that covers a player's whole head and face. It completely controls the player's consciousness by redirecting the signals the brain sends to the body and sending its own waves to stimulate the five senses. It has its own battery source, as well as a high frequency electromagnetic microwaves transmitter. Puzzles, education related games, or environmental type games were first produced for NerveGear. Therefore, Sword Art Online was a major excitement to all gamers. This design trapped 10,000 players during the official launch of Sword Art Online in September 2022. It is the first VR technology that has been mass-produced.

Character SheetName in Real Life: Caelyn BaylesIn Name Game: Tuocsamai Age: 19Gender: MaleLooks: Short Bio: Caelyn's father had it all planned out. He had a friend that was in with the creating company of SOA and he put in a nice bribe to him to secure his son a copy for his birthday. The 25th of November to be precise. He would give it to Caelyn early, he had to. For the last 10 years, his father had been away. He knew it was always a disappointment to Caelyn for him to not be there, but not this year. This year, he was going to repent for all of his short-comings to Caelyn. The look on Caelyn's face when he opened up the game along with his nerve gear was worth all the money in the world. It seemed like a patch had been put over the big the hole in their relationship. Things were finally looking up for them. "Dad. Thank you so much!!! How did you ever? I mean they ONLY made 10,000!" Caelyn never thought he would get a chance, he was tired of being in a place that was filled with selfish people. No one wants to lend a hand and everyone is out for themselves. In a world like SOA you can be whoever you want to be, its like a second chance. Personality: Caelyn is reserved but dreams about being from a time that was chivalrous. He wants nothing more than to be helpful. He has always been very insightful and listens well. Skills: (what skills you'd like your character to know)Preferred weapon and Armor: Light Armor, and katana.

Post your character here please Sheet bin

and then I'll add it to the guidebook which is here:Guide book

Dlayeth, I'm slowly editing things on that page, and will add it to the tester site you linked me too as well, so you can add it to the site

[Dlayeth]

I think I added you guys to both the tester and the original, but I'm not sure if I fixed that or not
I might as well get to work
I pretty much died last week.

Do you know what sucks?
My manager/boss/supervisor/trainer's father getting a heart attack.
Her not being able to visit him except within the summer when working at the university
The fact that she's going there in two weeks (which I don't begrudge her, I'm glad she's going, and I don't want to hold her back but...)
The fact I'll have to be able to cover for her for three weeks 2 weeks after I started learning the job.

I think professors will tear me to pieces, and I'll screw up terribly, and then I'll get fired or end up with a waaaaay bigger mess for her to clean up.

[Little_ninja]

All I can say is, good luck with that

[drallinix]

Yeah ive been noticing this there are like three guys using a katana a some point theyre gunna have to duke it out seeing as it is both a rare skill and the fact that only one can have battojutsu.

I know right? I'm planning on eating a gun after this is over. I won't do it before, because I really think she needs to go back and see her father, but after that... when she's back and all, and all caught up, maybe I shall eat a gun to atone for the mess I'm likely to make of things.

[MarshiestMallow]

I am choosing who gets the unique skills, because Suki won't have one. Therefore, I can be unbiased lol.

I'm sure you will be fine at work Dlayeth

Form

Name in Real Life: Ayame Tachibana
In Name Game: Ayame
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Looks: (Remove the third eye and all connecting wires.)
Short Bio: Ayame and Hideki's history goes back to roughly 7 years before SAO's release, during a trip by Hideki's parents (and him) back to Japan during his summer vacation. Ayame's parents were old friends with Hideki's, seeing as how the four had met during college and never dropped contact with each other ever since. It was during this time that the younger Hideki met Ayame, who at the time was an incredibly introverted bookworm. At their parent's encouragement, the two opened up to each other and became friends. This led to Ayame becoming a more social person in the years to come, eventually joining her high school's track and field team and a model student for the rest of the school. Hideki retained contact with her during this time, but as he became more introverted and more of a closet gamer she began to worry about his well-being. When the news of SAO's release came out, she asked her parents to get her a copy of the game and a NerveGear as a gift, not for her own amusement but because of her wanting to resolve Hideki's 'obsession' with games (in fact, it was from him that she learned of the game's existence and his resolve to play).
Personality: Ayame's dedication to a cause, when she puts her mind to it, is absurd- it's what allowed her to reach the top of her class during school and outside of it. The 'death game' Kayaba implemented is seen by her as one of self-fulfillment, something that she can't understand the existence of. Being a bookworm half her life, Ayame's understanding of the world is slightly limited, social interaction being something she reacts towards. Though she puts on a very bright and happy facade most of the time, the truth is that she's still the same person at heart- given the right circumstances, she could easily revert to being the shy introvert she used to be during her childhood. Ayame sees Hideki as a little sibling more than a friend at this point, and thus acts more like a big sister to him than anything else. To others, Ayame is relatively friendly; the times where she acts cold or aggravated are few and far between.
