[IC] Freedom Blade Online (sword art online rp)

[Jangel13]

Angelo smiled as he got home, he couldn't wait to start playing the new game freedom blade online. thankfully from what he's seen on the news because of that sword art online fiasco that this game was actually safe for playing and people wouldn't get stuck in it this time. A real game you could be in and be able to leave, he walked down the street from his collage campus nearby so he could get to his apartment seeing nothing but clear streets and like he always thought....this world was boring as hell. Angelo wanted to feel the rush of excitement and he got FBO (Freedom Blade Online) just for that purpose. He walked up the stairs to his small one bedroom one bath apartment and since it was the weekend he had no homework that needed to be done. So he immediately went over to his bed and he put on his nerve gear and he relaxed on the bed with a smile on his face as he was greeted as a new player and he started his customization making sure that the avatar looked as much like him as possible then he chose his skills and class before he was immediately transported or rather uploaded to the world of the silver empire of freedom blade online, soon he started looking around for other characters to team up with since their wasn't any real tutorial to deal with he wanted to find some guys willing to fight with a duel wielding blacksmith that could talk his way out of fights

Madoka ran through her front door, kicking off her shoes in the process. She could finally play Freedom Blade Online. Madoka threw down her backpack and ran into her room. She put on the Nerve Gear and entered the game. Upon entering the avatar creation Madoka made her avatar look identical to her. She then entered her own name, Madoka, as her avatar's name. She chose the thief class and picked skills suited for her class. She then stepped into FBO. She looked around for a blacksmith. She really needed a Naginata to fight with.

It had been three hours since the Player had gotten off from his boring desk job. He had just got done spending hours on a computer typing away. Putting in names, numbers, appointments, birthdays, phone numbers, how many cats they've owned in the past 4 years, if they enjoy bacon, and basically anything else possibly imaginable for his boss the lawyer. With this task still fresh in his mind he wanted absolutely nothing to do with a computer for the rest of his life. But the overwhelming feeling of wanting to try out Freedom Blade just kept coming back into his thoughts.

He had just gotten the game, but original had no intentions of playing it. But the idea of being able to escape from this dreadful world that he was in now and go into a world of pure fantasy was such a fantastic idea. Deciding that it was the only course of action that he could take without possibly wanting to blasting his brains out cause it reminded him of work, he popped the disc in. The menu booted up and began installing the game almost instantly. It was a solid 2 hours of bored waiting look up at the ceiling wondering what his character would be. Then the miracle came. A confirmation noise signalling that the game was ready to play. He put on his nerve gear and launched the game.

The first screen that he was greeted with was the character creation screen. The Player wanted something different from himself. Not to much different, but something that would make him feel like he was someone else. Not the same boring guy with the desk job that would make even the most patient of men lose their minds. It finally came to him, the design of his character he wanted. Spending literal minutes creating the perfect character for him and then moving onto the name selection, he made the perfect him. Zelts.

Monk, was the class that he decided to choose. Using blades seemed to cliche for a game such as this. As everyone would be using a blade style weapon in a game called Freedom Blade. So having the option to using Gauntlets and Greaves, seemed very unique to him. Something that would bring people closer to him, instead of having them pass him off as someone who was plain. Then the skills just sort of fell into place. Being a martial artist and an acrobat gave him absolute movement. Something he knew that his Monk was gonna need. But that third ability was causing him grief. Nothing else really seemed to fit with what he was looking for. So after a few moments of scrolling through the options he finally just picked Barber randomly. Maybe he could earn some money changing up people's hair styles. With everything in place,The Player knew it was time to enter the world.

The entire screen flashed white and Zelts slowly dropped down into the world. It was lush and green everywhere. With old style building filling in the towns. Everything he had wanted with the game was right in front of him. Players filled the street, many carrying swords and shields. But Zelts was without any weaponry. A head turner for many of the other PC's and NPC's that crowded that town. The monk continued forward down the street until he saw a pretty girl walking the town. She appeared to be of the thief class and the icon above her head indicated that he name was Madoka. Figuring she was a good starting point for a party, Zelts approached her rather hastily so no others would get to her first and decided to introduce himself.

"Hello miss, my name is Zelts. Pleasure to meet you.", he said to the thief with a charming smile and an extended hand.

[BlackCat]

" Hello Zelts, I am Madoka. It is nice to meet you as well. I have a question , do you happen to know any blacksmiths? I have daggers but i really need a Naginata," Madoka responded. While distracting Zelts with a conversation Madoka picked his pockets. He didn't have very much money. Only the amount you start with, but it was more money that Madoka could use. Madoka was positive Zelts didn't notice her stealing his money. She sent him a party request. He seemed interesting.

[Jangel13]

Angelo smiled seeing a blacksmith anvil, a grindstone, and a work bench. with his money he bought some steel ingots and started his Smith work. Soon people assumed that Angelo was an official blacksmith so I didn't argue with them as I started to take requests once I finished with my own swords "quality Smith work right here ladies and gents!" I called out as I immediately started working on my money not 10 minutes into the game and he was already making hundred of gold pieces from requests alone but he knew he could do better if he became a wandering blacksmith and do jobs in the middle of a fight. If Angelo saw someone make a request for his assistance then hee wouldn't necessarily say no

[TheMasterNarrator]

Jack rolled his head on his shoulders to loosen up his neck - it always got stiff during a Dive, and whatever he could do to lessen that was appreciated. He looked down at himself. It had taken several years to regain his physique after becoming stuck in SAO. He still had nightmares about it. But now, he could take something back. This new game, FB, was almost identical. Close enough that he could relate them. And by beating this game, he thought he might get some closure.

Of course, the magic had something to do with it as well.

He sped through the character creation process, making something fairly similar to his real-life self. When he was done, he entered the name - Jack, his real first name, and Nictos, the name he'd had in SAO. A nod to the past, if you like. Something to remind him why he was doing this when he'd sworn never to touch a Nervegear again.

Dropping into the game, he checked himself over, and was fairly pleased with what he had. A katana, some fairly decent starting spells, and a suit of leather armour that would probably last for a few levels before needing replacement. The starting gold was fairly good too, so perhaps he could get something useful... there! A blacksmith, working away.

Heading over quickly, he stopped a respectful distance away and waited for the man to finish. It wouldn't do to disrupt his work. Once he was done, Jack asked "Are you taking commissions?"

[onionsamurai]

As she slipped her hands into his pockets he just gave a quick look down. Stealing his starting gold, what an unfair way to play. Not like it was going to matter to much for him anyways. The way his character had been set up allowed him to be unarmed for a couple levels without feeling any hindrance to the strength of his character. Though the girls actions were something that he was going to remember. For this time and this time along he was gonna let it slide, pass it off as blissful ignorance, but the next time Zelts would have to intervene. Having her steal his money all the time would eventually cause some problems.

"I think I saw one down the street a little ways away. We can go there together and get some equipment. Though you might have to spot me. I guess the game didn't give me and gold to start with.", he said to her with a frown. Playing it off as if he had no clue she stole the money and he in fact started with nothing. The notification in the corner of his eyesight was starting to annoying him. So he brought it down and accepted her party request. Partying with a thief. Hopefully she's more then just a pickpocket., he ponder in his head.

Zelts then turned to walk towards the blacksmith, but motioned for Madoka to follow him over to that way. Progressing his way down the street he saw a man who looked like he knew the game already. He was inspecting over his body looking at what he had to begin with and the way he moved through the crowds of people and around the town showed that he knew more then most of the newbies here. Must have been one of the SAO players, Zelts had thought to himself.

After a few moments of walking he and Madoka finally reached the blacksmith that has been taking people's request for items. The Spellsword that he saw earlier was also there asking for the same thing both Zelts and Madoka wanted.

"Yeah, if you are taking commissions. I think we could also use your services.", Zelts spoke to the Blacksmith.

[Jangel13]

Angelo smiled at them "I have no problem with it, you won't find a better blacksmith anywhere. However I join join a group of 1 or a group of 2" Angelo aid ring to give them the hint that he worked with a group of 4 because he doesn't want any interruptions when he's repairing if making new gear for them. "Honestly I'll be a traveling blacksmith if I'm guaranteed protection when I'm working on gear" Angelo said simply smiling at then glad he found people already wanting his services

[TheMasterNarrator]

"Excellent."

Jack holds out his katana for inspection.

"Do you think you could improve on this? Oh, and I'd be more than willing to party up with you. It's always good to have a decent smith handy. If the Monk and the Thief were to join us -" here, he glances towards them inquiringly - "that would give a pretty rounded party, since I have a decent healing spell as well as offensive abilities."

He looks back and forward idly, waiting for an answer.

[Jangel13]

Angelo smiled at them "send me party requests and I'll join you guys" he said smiling as he grabbed the guys katana And he used some steel ingots and he melted the ingots before he started to gently cover the katana in it and he used his hammer to harden it and he used a bucket of water and he stemmed the sword to quickly harden it again then hee used the grindstone fit a few moments as he checked the sword new stats nodding in approval "saw hello to your new and improved sword" Angelo said grinning giving it to him. The swords stats in strength, speed, and endurance. Thinking that it was proof enough he was a good blacksmith

[BlackCat]

"Uh, Can you make me a Naginata. The game gave me two daggers but I'm not very good with them. And I would love to party with you, it would be awesome to have a blacksmith with us." Madoka told the blacksmith. She was so happy to finally get her weapon of choice. She had decided to get one because she had trained with one outside of the game. This was going to be fun.

a Naginata? well that is a very interesting weapon to choose from. now I can make it but it takes time to make a new weapon from scratch even then with the materials I have it wont be any stronger then the daggers your carrying. So if you don't mind that then ill make it for you and improve it when I get better materials when I go out with you guys" Angelo said stating everything he knew about making a custom weapons like it said in the instruction manual, it wasn't that he couldn't it was simply that he only had basic materials that the game gives to blacksmiths.

[onionsamurai]

" Well I see that this is becoming quite the little pow-wow.", Zelts said to the three around him.

He brought down a scrolling menu in front of him and searched from both the Blacksmiths name and the Spellswords name. Once he found both of them he sent them both an invite to join the party. Having a mid field attack and a blacksmith for repairs definitely allowed for a nice party setup. Something that would help them get through the game a lot easier. Then Zelts decided to get back on board with what was happening.

"So...Angelo. Where do you think we can get these materials for her weapon?"

[Jangel13]

Well I will need some viper wood and steel ingots. The steel will be easy to find since you could buy it real cheap. However the viper wood is a C class material and to get that we would either need a lot more money or go into the black forest and I can get it from their" Angelo said and he looked at his alerts and saw the party request and he clicked confirm and he was now part of the party as he got all his equipment carrying his bag of blacksmith equipment and an anvil in his inventory it was heavy but luckily it didn't make Angelo unencumbered

[TheMasterNarrator]

Taking back his sword, Jack spins it in a blur of motion that showcases how skilled he really is with a sword, since there's nothing active to guide his hand. He grins. "Nice job. Thanks."

Almost the same instant the party request comes up, his free hand flicks out and accepts it without so much as a glance, the long years of imprisonment in SAO showing through.

"Well, I vote for the Black Forest. We might be able to get ahead of the curve and get a couple of levels under our belts before most of the others. Strength is everything in a game like this." His face turns sad. "Trust me, I know."

[BlackCat]

" Black Forest sounds good to me," Madoka responded. She was fine going anywhere. As long as she had a Naginata she was happy. She didn't care if it wasn't the best, she would still know how to use it.

[Jangel13]

Angelo looked at his map and he made a way point for everyone as a blue trail was made for us on our screens. "Well let's go and get your viper wood so I can make your naginata on the go. I got my anvil so I can make it their. " Angelo said as he led the way towards the outside of the first town walking by seeing different characters and npc's going bye then but he wasn't sure if they had all the supplies they needed "if anyone has any supplies they need we should get it before we leave the city regardless of what we face in the black forest."
