Height: 5'9
Weight: 150
Hair Color: Dark pink
Eye Color: Red and Blue
Name: Nao Fukui
Age: 18

History: Nao didn't have much special in her life she had a boring life where each and every day she would do normal boring things and be like everyone else, but then her life changed when she made a friend that was a gamer, her friend introduced her to video games and almost over night she became a gamer her self she was bumming her friend's videogame console till she got her own.

And when she got her own she was gaming like a manic with almost no end till she ended up passing out on her bed or the floor, like a regular gamer she was pre-ordering games and getting supplies to help her play video games, and in a madder of time she became a regular gamer and turning to a hardcore gamer, she started changing to other consoles and using a computer to play video games.

The second Nao turned 18 enough she got an easy job to make easy money over the phone, and got a little shipping container as a house with electricity and heat over the internet, she soon set up all of her gaming consoles and became a young hikikomori gamer outside of her parent's house, she worked over the phone in her little home and always bought take out and would either go and get it or she would have it delivered to her shipping container home.

When she heard about D.G.O she heard mixed news about it, the game actually had a couple gamers die playing it for hours on end and even die in gaming cafes playing it for almost days, Nao was a little hesitant to play it but soon it was added to her almost ceiling stack of games that she would play, and when she started gaming D.G.O was her main game that she would play and no other games haven't been played by her for days.

Personality: Nao is an easygoing person for a hikikomori, she doesn't mind having to go a long way to do something for someone as long as it's worth it in the end, Nao can be kinda selfish from time to time and is willing to call others out on their bull shit.

The Japanese girl is pretty open for someone who plays online mostly, she can be very talkative at moments but knows when it's the right time to talk and when to shut her mouth, Nao hates people who blames others for their own faults, she hates having to look after people who don't know what they are doing, but shes willing to aid other people who are strong or brave.

Shiro Kawabata

Shiro Kawabata

Shiro Kawabata - IRL

Height: 5'9"

Weight: 136 lbs.

Hair Color: Tangelo

Eye Color: Slate

Age: 16

Personality: Nonchalant, confident, and observant are all words synonymous with Shiro's satirical personality. Always the one to see the cup half full, even when he's drinking from said cup. The boy takes pride in giving out advice like he gives out EXP boosts. Being a soft-spoken and kind fellow, he always finds his own little niche in communities, and gradually becomes a more prominent. This isn't to say that he's a controlling person, he just wants a few aces up his sleeve in case things go awry. Shiro is a natural at making small talk, and always manages to throw in enough humor and seriousness to retain his listener's attention, but casts the latter whenever needed. Whenever his eye patch is brought up in conversation, he happily obliges in giving whomever it may concern the whole rundown, and even offers to show them his scars if they're daring enough.

In game, Shiro, or Paper Moon as he goes by, practically remains the same as his IRL self. Really, he even has the galls to have his actual face modeled onto his character, and sports a hood for concealment at most. His satirical demeanor is a bit more evident in the world of DGO, but he still remains decisively steadfast in his role.

History: Not everybody has an eventful origin. Some people just go through life straddling a perfectly lacking any peaks or dips. More than just a few experience this curse of inescapable monotony, and hopelessly wish for a sudden climax to make an appearance. Why, yes, this form of lifestyle is ultimately boring.

Luckily, Shiro was never a member of this populace. He did end up barfing on his father during his infancy. Now that was an exhilarating excursion. But instead of condemning himself to a life of normalcy, the young Shiro, born to a factory foreman and a housewife, took reality by the reins and plotted himself a course for adventure. Or, at least, to form his own little posse of kids his age and best all of the neighborhood bullies. Which they succeeded in, definitely something to note.

And then somewhere in the midst of his junior high endeavors, he found himself in a car accident. The boy didn't get banged up to bad, excluding the shard of glass that found itself lodged into his left eye, but his therapy didn't last too long. Around this time Shiro had long picked up gaming as a hobby, which was the main reason why he was attending the academy he enrolled in.

As for how he found himself in the middle echelons of the Sweepers, well, that's a whole entire dubbocle in itself. Shiro was never one to break or infringe upon the system. He's quite an ethical person, and believes that all is fair in love and war. Yet he ended up befriending those who were of a more shady moral character, and soon enough found himself within the ranks of an unofficial, yet acknowledgedly evident group within the community of DGO. At the moment, Shiro has taken on the role of a Sweeper, but is considered on the higher end of the spectrum considering how much of a say he has. He's actually quite friendly with a few Erasers, and remains in good ties with them considering his amiable behavior. The kid still maintains his policy of getting to know his target before shooting it.

Paper Moon

Paper Moon - IG

(IG avatar face is same as IRL)

Avatar Class: Rogue

Avatar Title: Paper Moon

Avatar Level (Initial): 3

Avatar Level: 4

Avatar Guild: Sweepers, but is a solo player in text.

Avatar Abilities:
Keen Eyes: Can easily discern targets through mist or any substance that isn't completely solid, other examples being ash, heavy snowfall, or cracks in infrastructure. Other players are registered as thermal signatures when the ability is active, but how clearly and lucidly they show up depends on their range. Keen Eyes is only effective up to 80 meters, and practically becomes useless beyond that point.

Under The Moon's Shadow: Paper Moon is able to active an ability that increases his mobility through darker areas by 15%, and ordinary by 10%. This doesn't damper the sound of his footsteps in any way, in all actuality, it makes them more rapid and audible. Usually used when he wants to quickly close the gap between a lone unknowing individual and himself.

Fairy Blue: An ability that affects Shiro's bullets, imbuing them with a phantasmic cerulean coating of flames. The rounds' trajectory is barely changed, and they have an additional flame effect on top of the already heft bullet payload, which equates to roughly an additional 10%. Of course, this ability makes his shots more visible, which for an assassin is generally a bad thing. Because of this, it is usually employed as a last stand or ditch effort ability, and tends to get Shiro out of some pretty hectic situations.

Avatar Feats:

Assassination: Sneak attacks do double damage. Not applicable if already in combat.

Grim Stride: Your movements make no noise.

AmaLee - PAPERMOON[English]

But what about dat eye doe?
Even though IG Shiro's character lacks an eye patch, the left eye is more of a cosmetic than anything. Since his disabled eye is unable to make a retinal connection with DGO, thus he has the same visual perspective IG as he does IRL. At first it limited his combat effectiveness, but he's managed to work out the kinks and hone himself to the hindrance. On the bright side, he doesn't have to waste the time closing his right eye to aim down the scope.

Suppressors:
He fancies them, albeit they add a bullet speed reduction, his Fairy Blue ability is surprisingly cooperative with them, and doesn't burn off the muzzle attachment.

Notable NPCs:

NPCS:

Ken Amai

Age: 16
Year: Third - Shiro's classmate
Height: 5'7"
Defining trait: Somewhat timid, but not to the extent where verbal communication is a distant possibility. He's not versed with maintaining a conversation, and walks through those that he can like a stroll over shattered glass. But get past his inability to not stutter, and he's a pretty down to earth fellow. As a Ranger, he displays an attentive focus when peering down a scope, and emanates a stoic demeanor while in this state of utmost concentration. Tends to be the straight man, stuck within the cleft formed between Shiro and Akane.
Dream: Airline Pilot, hence "Sky Knight"

Sky Knight

Class: Rogue (Ranger)
Level: Initially 3, 4 after the Defense of the Black City
Affiliation: Ebony Strykers
Notable ability: DEFYING GRAVITY - Sky Knight has the ability to place an external force unto entities. In laymen's terms, he can control the kinetic energy, or simply, the speed of a desired object. Even though it has quite the extensive range, it definitely comes with the contingencies most would infer. Per example, the heavier an entity is, the harder it is to manipulate. Also Sky Knight finds it easier to slow something down rather than increase its speed. Whenever he performs the latter, the motion of the entity is always sluggish, and sails on a lethargic arc. A good example of his ability's capacity is during the Civil War, when Paper Moon and Strawberry Baby disembarked from Fluffy at an altitude that prompt enough fall damage to insta-kill. The two would have gone splat, had Sky Knight bleated their speed.

White Noise

IRL not completely fleshed out.
What is known:
Age: 16
Year: Third
Class: Rogue (Artificer)
Level: 4
Affiliation: Solo
Pertinent stuff: She's known Shiro/Paper Moon for quite some time, but their dealings with one another have been strictly formal.
Notable Ability: WHITE NOISE - Even as an artificer, White Noise has the tendency to take the quest by the reins and direct it with her own judgement, which is pretty damn reliable. The ability named after herself has an AoE effect (roughly fifteen feet) and essentially messes with the stability of minds, mob and player alike, and screws up their senses, elucidated by a shrill pitch. It also can glitch messages sent within the range. Its intensity grows as the individual comes closer to the girl.

Name: Angelina 'Lina' Jackson
Age: 15
History: Angelina, an American born girl, was born to a scholarly family, with her parents being professors at a university. However, unlike her scholarly parents, Angelina was more of the out-going, adventurous type, preferring to work hard when no one seemingly notices. However, the fact that the world was almost decided through the Deep Ground Program, and that there was a school directly connected to it, Lina's parents sent her off the Purple Crown Academy alone, albeit reluctantly.

However, thanks to luck on landing a job serving at an Internet cafe, Lina managed to keep herself supported, and thus settled down a bit into her new life. But, the seemingly easy-going but routine lifestyle slightly bored Lina, which would be the reason why she started looking for trouble. More accurately, she started spending time within DGO, at first deliberately wandering into predictable ambush points, to finding Outlaws to fight against. It was around this time that she chanced upon the information of Sweepers. Finding the task they were rumored to do intriguing, Lina decided to try her hand at it. After all, it was only rumors, so perhaps her efforts would be tossed up in the air as so.
Personality: Flighty and whimsical, many would find Lina somewhat hard to label properly. At times she may be extremely quiet and observant, carefully noting and remembering little details. At others, she may be childish, innocent and thoughts befitting her age. And even occasionally, manipulative and cautious. The best anyone could compare her, would be to put her side by side with a cat, and say 'See? They're the same!'. Moves utterly on a whim. However, whimsical does not mean unreliable. Lina extremely values unorthodox methods, and smoothly hides evidence of her efforts under the table, allowing somebody else to take the glory.

Viewed as a loose cannon by fellow Cleaners and Erasers for a multitude of reasons. One is that Lina will sometimes allow a known hacker/troll to 'slip' from her grasp. She does so with the thought of using them as a lure to catch a bigger prey. Another, would be that she operates on an extremely wide base, overlapping into another Eraser's turf far too often, along with acting as a Cleaner for her own catches.

Those that know Lina very well, might mention that she seems to have slight self-destructive tendencies. Taking the blame and the fall for someone else, especially her close friends is rather common, with 'Let those who are prepared take the fall' as her vague reason. Easily accepting blame while denying praise(although petting/hugging her is a different story).

Unlike most, her personality doesn't change even slightly as Leviathan. In one battle she might be firing from long ranges with a rifle, at others burrowed underground, and then even sometimes found in the midst of battle, firing at near point-blank ranges with handguns.

Also, pet/hug her. Or give her a lap pillow. Or even a piggy-back. Or use her as a hug pillow. For odd reasons, she seems to enjoy these unusual actions.

Enjoying yourself~? Don't worry, I'll give you ten seconds to run, okay~? One, two, ten! Ehehe~!

Armory Expansion(active): A mobile storage that appears from nowhere. While any item is stored inside the inventory do not affect the user with their weight, there is a three second delay in opening/closing the storage. Also, while opened, the user's movement speed is reduced by 80%.
Emergency Ejection(active): Empties the entirety of the mobile storage on top of the user in less than a second. Defense is increased in proportion to total weight of items piled on the user. However, user is immobile until dug out.
Burrow(active): Hides the user underground after a set period of 'warm-up'. If given half a second, the user is hidden, immobile, and unable to attack. If given thirty seconds however, the user is hidden and immobile. Defense is increased up to 20%, depending on surrounding materials, and the user can attack.

Armor Piercing: Ranged Attacks ignore 10% of Defense
Other: Its easier to dig from the outside than from the inside. Please don't leave Levi-chan behind!

Something that may be rather problematic for her, is that she answers to 'Levi' just as easily as she would to 'Lina'. This also transmits outside of DGO, where she will still answer to her IGN.

She works as a waitress.

Rikka Hitomi

Height
5,3ft/1,57m

Weight
105lb/48kg

Hair Color
Brown

Eye Color
Brown

Age
14

Personality
Rikka is slightly unemotional by the way her father has treated her during the last few years. However she still knows how to have fun and care for others. She is very self centered and doesn't change on plans when she has made them already. She is also self-righteous, short-tempered, and dislikes it when other characters fail to acknowledge her efforts. She is bold and straightforward and also loves eating food.

History
"Mom! Mom, look train is coming!" a small girl jumped up and down in front of her mother in her completely white dress "Come honey it's dangerous, don't stand so close to the edge." The mother hastily pulled her daughter away from the edge of the platform as the bright lights of the train zoomed past them. The train went full on the brakes to stop at the platform producing a sharp screeching noise which made the little girl cover her ears out of protection. The train came to a stop and puffed a few times before the doors flung open. The little girl had never been on a train before and so she cheerfully jumped up the stairs into the train with her mother trailing behind her. She quickly chose a spot to sit as her mother placed the suitcases on the luggage railing. They were going to France for her mother's business trip. Of course she was not just a nobody who worked for just a company that had to promote themselves but the face of the Hitomi enterprises. The company that produces and ships instant noodles throughout whole England. Eliza Hitomi the mother of the Hitomi family was co-founder of Hitomi enterprises. Of course it would be only logic that the founder of Hitomi enterprises was no one more then Masato Hitomi the father of the family. Together the couple had a beautiful child named Rikka Hitomi. The future president of the Hitomi company. The young child was dazzled by the view they had from the train over the wide fields on england and in the mean time of the trip she was telling her mother weird stories she had heard during school to kill some time. They had to take the the underground train from England to France to get to a important meeting. They had to arrive in Paris before the next day so they had plenty of time to kill in the train and in Paris for now. The business meeting was a big deal it might result in another client so they could start to ship their noodles through France too. It would raise their income by 300%. But first the train trip, the train slowly descended down into the tunnel that lead under the sea between France and England. Rikka was surprised a train could do things like this and grew bored of the pitch black walls immediately so she focused her attention more towards her mother to get some more fun out of her train trip.

"Mommy I'm scared. We're going so deep." Her mother chuckled "Nothing can happen hun. This is one of the safest trains ever made. If it was dangerous I wouldn't have taken you with me." Rikka pouted at her mother "If it was dangerous I wouldn't let you go." Rikka grabbed her mother tightly and giggled "I thought I was the mother here" Her mother surprisingly said and laughed together with her child before a sudden static sounded through the mic. It was the activating of the microfoon echoing throughout the whole train "Attention attention, there has been a minor problem with the tunnel behind us. Water has started pouring into the tunnel and broke the wiring of the safety mechanism because of bad isolation. The amount of water is small so the mechanics will close down the floodgates near the hole from the control room in no time. Thank you for your attention there will be regular updates." The wagon turned quiet at first with nothing to be said. The whole train began to get rowdy, people panicking and looking for a way of safety even though it was a minor alarm "Mom what is gonna happen?" The body of the small girl was trembling in fear "I don't know hun just don't worry." The face of her mother said everything, making the small girl and uncomfortable and scared of what was gonna happen from here on out. Rikka jumped into her mother her arms hugging her so hard as she could and waited for what was about to come.

The microfoon went on a few times more to tell the people they would most likely make it before the next floodgate. The microphone turned on once again with the train machinist sounding quite well let’s say hectic "People, we are gonna make it to the other side of this tunnel. The next flood gate is close enough for us to make it in time before the water will hit us the engines are already on their max throttle so we'll make it." He sounded regretful "M-mommy. We will make it right. Daddy always says that i'm the lucky one. S-so there is no way we can die." Her mother bit on her lip and hugged the child tightly "Of course hun. There is no way we won’t make it." Tears streamed down her face as she tightened her grip so she wouldn't see her shameful mother her face. Rikka puffed with her mouth and calmed down a little "That's good."

"We'll likely make it, the staff from above ground were right. The have constated that the water is still far behind us so we can make it in time for the flood gate.” Sighs of relief sounded through the train but there was already a rumbling noice sounding behind them. It clearly was water that was flooding throught the tunnels behind them like crazy "We are almost there people only a little bit." The sound of water grew louder and louder as the mic went quiet. There clearly was a problem and indeed before they knew it a sharp noice of metal against metal sounded from the roof. It was the flood gate that was screetching against the roof of the train. People from above ground level had already close the gate before the train had completly gone through it. A heavy slam sounded and soon the whole train made a massive break which resulted in everything in the train falling to the front. The train had been clamped between the ground and the flood gate. The flood gate had stopped with moving and the train was blocking its path from closing any further. People were screaming and crying "RUN RUN" multiple people were starting to run towards the next flood gate which wasn't all that far now. It all flashed by so quick Rikka had bumped her head and her mother had taken most part of the blow. Her mother was lying unconcinious by her still partly hugging the small girl but without any life showing from her body. Little Rikka shook her mother a few times as tears streamed down her face. She couldn’t do a thing with the tiny body of hers but luckily the people of the train started helping and carried the two with them towards the exit. It was a run between life and death. The man carrying Rikka was the quickest of them all and could even barely slide under the flood door before it closed. Rikka punched the man a few times to let go of her and was put down. She tried to open the door but it was no use. Rikka could only cry and reach out for her mother but it was helpless. There were prayers screams and cries from the other side but nothing could be done. Others tried bonking on the door and screaming but not a moment later all the sound died washed away by the water except for one "Mommy..."

Seven years later after the unfortunate accident. One year before Rikka would be allowed into DGO.

Two dark figures were standing in the halls of the big mansion of the family Hitomi "Cabelties?" "Check." "Sleeping drugs? "Check" The man poured the liquefied sleeping drugs onto a handkerchief and held it onto the latex rubber glove "Okay we'll do this quick and painless." The doorknob turned around and the door slowly opened. The two men walked into the pink moonlighted room. They sneaked up to the bed and stood there on both sides of the bed. A cramped up girl was sleeping in her pyjamas "3... 2... 1!!!" One of the men bound the straps around her arms and the other pressed the handkerchief onto her mouth. The girl shot up and tried to move away but it was to late. She soundlessly fell asleep again. Her mouth was taped and she was taken away.

It was pitch black. Rikka was awake again but, couldn't see anything. She wanted to scream for help but her mouth was taped shut. She let out a few infuriated groans and tried to move but her body was tied to something. A lying chair perhaps "Well, well, well. If it isn't the little princess." Rikka turned quiet "Quess what, we are gonna do a little experiment with you today. But don't worry. Your dad ordered it so we won't kill you. It's a little test to see if you're good enough to take over your dad his company. You'll see very soon." Rikka felt a needle in her arm and soon fell asleep again.

"You dumbass, it was easy to prevent!" Rikka opened her eyes and tried talking again. Her mouth was still taped. Her vision was blurry but still dark and she was still stuck... Or not... She couldn't move. Not a single finger "O shit, o shit, she woke up! Quickly another dose before it gets any more damaged!" She tried to resist but there was no way out. Her eyes closed.

"Sweetheart, wakey wakey." She could see the man. It was the one in her room from before "How are you feeling? Can you move everything?" Rikka hazzily looked at the man and tried moving a little "Huh? Where am I. I can move again!" however she was still tied to the chair. "Your dad ordered us to do something... Special" Rikka moved every part of her body and noticed something odd "I can't feel my left hand!" The man laughed a little "Calm down calm down. It's nothing serious. Your nerves in your hand died." Rikka widened here eyes "Wha..." her mouth was shut off by the man "Don't worry we already have a exo skeleton being made for your hand. You'll feel everything normally and its even stronger then your regular hand! But to continue, your dad had us place a device on your back spine. This is a insta kill switch. It will electrocute you to death. But don't you worry! It won't go off if you play by the rules. For now those would be rest in bed and wait till your a year older! If you receive any kind of message with this mark on it. Trust it and do whatever the message describes. Well that would be all for now so um have a safe trip home!" The man taped the girl her mouth once again and send her off with chair and all towards an ambulance like wagon. She was loaded up and taken home again. Placed in bed and told not to move all that much.

A few weeks later the problem of her left hand was finally fixed. They had cut of the dead nerves in her hand from her arm and made it able for the device to connect to her remaining healthy nerves. The exo skeleton was obvious but it wasn't as bulky as she expected it to be. It was rather smooth and lied on the hand by a thin layer of metal. The people that had got her this injury of course got a good scolding from Rikka's dad and a insurance claim. Thr company was damn near broke but Rikka was good friends with these people so it would have been cruel. To drop them like that.

A year past by pretty damn quickly and she began to grow acustomed to the metal exo skeleton surrounding her hand. She had gotten a few more letters of the organisation that had did this cruel thing to her and was told what to do and what not. In the gaming world she wouldn't be able to kill a single player except for kings. Well that sounded easy enough. It was something she had to do in order to become boss of the million company her dad was running. Otherwise she would be dead to him if she wasn't even able to fullfill this task. With that she joined in the cyber world DGO.

Ray Ryuga

Appearance (Real Life):

Height: 177 cm (5'10")
Weight: 65 kg (143 lb))
Hair Color: Dark blue
Eye Color: Dark violet
Name: Ray Ryuga
Age: 17
History: Coming from a reasonably prestigious family with both Western and Eastern heritage, Ray's IQ for his age has always been quite remarkable, and his persistence in any given task moreso, leading his grades to be consistently excellent, even exceptional throughout his early years. However, the importance of succeeding in Deep Ground Online was consistently crammed into his head, the same as every other child; yet in his case, it had the opposite effect to what was intended. He was smart, and he knew it; moreover, he was more than motivated enough to get any job in a system where one's performance in a game didn't have any sway, and in his somewhat childish arrogance, he didn't see any reason to not try and prove that the system held no sway over him. Thus, even though the game software was bought for him and installed the same as any other thirteen-year-old, even being sent up to the Purple Crown Academy for his continued education, he refused to even start up the game, instead dedicating himself to his studies and to both Purple Crown's track team and swim team in an effort to prove his independence.
This lack of gameplay did not go unnoticed by anyone, least of all his parents, who tried to convince him at every opportunity that he should get involved in it. He steadfastly refused to do so in the first instance, but time started to wear down his defenses, and he began wondering if he was making the right choices after all. He was seriously questioning himself as he neared his seventeenth birthday, and the push that finally changed his mind came when his parents took him to see an old friend of theirs: somebody who had tried to pull off the same thing as Ray himself was engaging in, and was subsequently punished with a job far below what he was capable of. The man frantically warned Ray of the potential consequences of his arrogance, telling him over and over that it wasn't worth it before Ray's father ended the encounter. Still, it was enough to shake up Ray's worldview, to shatter his pride, and to convince him that he needed to get into the game proper as soon as he possibly could, something he could manage having already ingrained most of the academic knowledge he'd need for the next couple of years into his brain through sheer persistent rote to ensure he'd recall it when the time came. He figured that he could change the system personally as a politician, rather than relying on his own force of will to prove that using a game to dictate social status was absurd.
Over the next few days, and working with his parents in the time before the new school year at Purple Crown began, Ray devised a build for his character that he believed would be able to level him up as fast as possible, at minimal risk to himself, involving the use of the Ranger class, and various abilities to improve his ability to remain hidden alongside general range- and power-enhancing abilities, so as to kill things as quickly as possible, from as far away as possible, without being noticed. With all that said and done, Ray finally created his character, entered the game proper, and joined the Fanged Rangers as soon as he got an opportunity, spending a fair amount of his time after that both in the game and, once he returned to Purple Crown again, in a couple of part time jobs to receive additional experience. All this paid off, as he hit level 2 very rapidly for someone who had only recently started the game, and even managed to get halfway to level 3 in a very short span of time indeed... but alas, it could not last forever, and he was abruptly dropped from the Rangers with no reason given, only receiving the statement that "that's what they do" after asking a few people from other guilds. Incensed by what he saw as frankly outrageous behaviour, he decided then and there that he wanted to make a statement. Something huge enough that he'd never be pushed aside like that again...
Personality: Ray is a motivated and intelligent individual, and typically considered quite handsome should he choose to put himself in the spotlight. He tends to put out a calm and composed air, though his confidence and determination can sometimes get the better of him if misdirected, as was the case for several years when he chose not to partake of the Deep Ground Program. Furthermore, he usually approaches his activities with a lot of theoretical knowledge, using this to help fine-tune his practical abilities when necessary. That being said, he is not actively antisocial, and generally aims to be warm to his fellow classmates in real life where possible. This changes once he enters the game: his drive to achieve his goal of in-game greatness to support his longer-term goal of actual greatness often drowns out his friendlier aspects, and he rarely talks to others in the game itself, generally staying away from groups of people unless he has to. Also, his recent revelation about how important the D.G.P. actually is has led to slight panic attacks prior to his actually starting the game, and even now, he worries that he may not achieve his goals and be effectively sentenced to a life of drudgery.

Level 1: Velocity Amplifier

The projectile velocity of all ranged weapons wielded by the player is multiplied by 2x, with an additional degree of multiplication added if the weapon is a sniper rifle and/or if the weapon is considered a heavy weapon (usually those that require two hands to wield, though weapon class may alter this requirement somewhat), for a total velocity multiplier of 4x with heavy sniper rifles. This velocity multiplication substantially increases both the effective range of all ranged weapons and the difficulty of avoiding any projectile fired by the user, proportionate to the degree to which velocity has been multiplied. Weapons affected by this also gain a damage boost based on the velocity multiplier, equal to 5% + (5% per lvl) per degree of multiplication, such that, for instance, the basic damage boost to ranged weapons at levels 1, 2, and 3 respectively is 20, 30, and 40% for most weapons; 30, 45, and 60% for sniper rifles and non-sniper rifle heavy weapons; and 40, 60, and 80% for heavy sniper rifles.
Additional benefits from this ability are acquired as the player levels up: at level 3, all ranged weapons gain armour and damage reduction piercing of 10% per degree of velocity multiplication, such that most ranged weapons will possess piercing of 20%, heavy weapons and sniper rifles will possess 30% piercing, and heavy sniper rifles will possess 40% piercing; at level 6, semi-automatic rifles acquire the same degree of velocity multiplication as sniper rifles, meaning that they nominally possess a 3x velocity multiplication, or a 4x velocity multiplication if they are also heavy weapons, with all associated values increasing accordingly; and at level 9, the base velocity multiplier of all weapons increases by one stage, such that most ranged weapons possess a multiplier of 3x, rifles and heavy weapons 4x, and heavy rifles 5x, with all associated values increasing accordingly.

Level 2: Übersnipe

An activated ability that can only be used with a ranged weapon capable of firing multiple projectiles before reloading, which alters the player's next shot to fire every single round remaining in the weapon's clip or equivalent ammunition supply, surrounding the resulting projectile in a haze of plasma. This mega-bullet acts fairly similarly to a single round fired from the same weapon, including velocity multiplication as described above, but deals damage equivalent to the number of projectiles that were expended to produce the mega-bullet, plus an additional 5% magical damage per expended projectile; the drawbacks of this ability include the obvious need to reload after every single use of this ability, though this can be circumvented by certain abilities and/or feats, and the fact that mega-bullets are very visually obvious, meaning they can to some extent be noticed from afar if a player is observant, and even utilised to track a path back to the firer if the player pays attention to the projectile's pathing, though their typically extreme speed of motion generally means that they remain inobvious through other means such as auditory output.
Additional benefits from this ability are acquired as the player levels up: at level 5, any given mega-bullet gains an additional 5% magical damage per expended projectile; at level 7, mega-bullets gain a 2% chance per expended projectile to shatter any shield, armour piece, or other piece or equipment that it strikes, rendering it useless until repaired, with a 0.5% chance per expended projectile after the initial breaking to permanently destroy such items if they are not "unique" (e.g. by being items that only ever drop once per player) or otherwise exceptional in some way above and beyond most other items; and at level 9, mega-bullets add another degree of velocity multiplication to projectiles on top of the base velocity multiplication of an otherwise normal projectile of the corresponding type, with effects as described above.

Appearance (Real Life):

Height: 158 cm
Weight: 62 kg
Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Deep Blue
Name: Junko Kisagami
Age: 16
History: Junko would have been happy with her lot in life, simply ignoring the world and the Deep Ground Online to live a travelers life with her gang the Kisa that she had become the leader of, forced too to survive would be a better word for it. All thanks to this life of poverty that she had been forced to live due to that very 'game'. Still she lived through the tough streets thanks to both her talent and a dear online friend that helped guide her through school which allowed her to achieve much higher grades than she could have thought possible and even training within the DGO, something she would have never bothered without them...

However those times did not last as her friend was to go to the Purple Crown Academy and would likely be far too busy to hang around with just some online friend, but it was fine as she understood such a chance was a one time thing so there was no way she could blame her friend, but without her there she had no reason for school or DGO...

Then it happened, that one chance that would assure her future was anything but the slums she had come from, a DGO competition. She already had the required grades thanks to all that studying her friend put her through, and the training would put her far above any normal person! Needless to say it was tough, but she soon came up on top of it all, granting her access to the Purple Crown Academy and a grand future that she intended to make sure no one would ever get in the way of.

Personality: Junko's powerful will and almost dangerous like aura would be the thing that scared off many people from getting to know her, however those that do are allowed to see her rather loyal and big sister like protective side. Her sarcastic like humor to almost anything that happens around her puts people at ease, her tough exterminate being something that true her Kisa gang to her in the first place, along with her strong leadership abilities.

The 'big tough gang leader' also holds a sort of hidden side to herself that only her dearest friend knows about; she is a huge folklore otaku. Obunaga, the three kingdoms, ninja! She will take them all and in any form from anime, manga, old movies and even going as far as getting a Nobunaga Hugging pillow {Anime Girl Version}. When something comes up that she doesn't want to take part in or she dislikes the subject of conversation such as constant studying she pretends to fall asleep, though sometimes it turns into a real nap. She may dislikes studying but if she has someone backing her like anything else if she puts all her effort into something she achieves it.

This move can be used against projectiles as well however it only works as a muti-parry move. Can be used as apart of a combo with moves for enhanced crit chance for its 5 strikes.

Lvl 2 - Unyielding Speed - 1 post cooldown - By moving at such blinding speeds it seems as if the player has vanished, this works about the same as the invisible spell when used, but once must move away from their location in order to achieve it. This move can be used as apart of a combo with other abilities to give it x2 damage.

Lvl 3 - Undying Will - 4 post cooldown - A transformation like technique that allows the player to sacrifice a % of their HP in order to obtain a boost in power equal to that HP lost. This cannot me used as apart of a combo but can enhance their effects.

Name: Kyle Xavier Gorvette

Age: 16

Sex: Male

Appearance:



His skateboard that he uses around the Academy:


Personality: Kyle, outgoing, hyper, happy, upbeat, and generally a happy character. He’s the person you bring around when you want to smile, or just know someone cares enough to try. Also is a big fan of the outdoors, and Deep Ground, if he’s not in class he is either Online, or there. When his room isn’t blaring some sort of music he is probably skating about the Academy. Otherwise don’t go in as he might actually be inside studying. For once.

Though, when Kyle is angered, he is cold, calculating, and downright lethal. His photographic memory and observant ways tend to make him someone able to pick out a persons weakspot from a mile away. Sort of a two-way street to get him to like you again, and if you break his trust...Run. He will be sure to make you regret that.

Backstory: Kyle Xavier Gorvette was born to a middle class family in New York and was given quite a lovely life, though where most kids had an addiction to tons of video games stemming from a want to prepare for the Deep Ground. He belonged on his skateboard, always boarding about the busy streets of the city to pass the days by once the toys at home didn’t entertain him anymore. As he got older he became more outgoing and social, and his parents had gotten quite a boost in the income, so they went over the top and gave him the news: He was going to Purple Crown Academy. He was happy, but also sad, his favorite color was green. So he packed his bags and was taken to the Academy, where he enrolled in the Photography classes, and the Studio Design courses as well. He excels at them so far, actually incorporating his skateboarding into his photography which has lead to some really cool shots, sometimes back home he helped out a local DJ, so he knows a thing or two of that. Also does own a vape, though primarily because it looks freaking awesome, and the flavor is awesome.

Naruse Sora

Appearance (Real Life)

---

”I started out with nothing, and I still have most of it.”

Appearance
Sora has sharp features that add to his coquettish countenance. However, they also appear somewhat delicate if not dainty. In general, he could be described as playful.

Height
6’4”

Weight
162 lbs - 73.482 kgs

Hair Color
Light Red

Eye Color
Light Red

Name
Sora Naruse

Age
16

History
The Naruse family. A series of extremely successful players and students that have created a legacy and stand as an economic powerhouse. The family has considerable fame and power, as well as an equal amount of pride.

Sora was born into the Naruse family, not as a gift, but a nuisance and burden. He was gifted the position of bastard child from birth and was automatically shunned from the rest of the Naruse family. The father, at the time of Sora’s birth, was in his early 20s, the renown and fame that came with his success as a DGO player still remained, and he is the expected successor of the Naruse family heritage. Despite his father’s success, Sora held a much closer relationship to his meager mother, to which he grew up closely amidst the servant quarters.

His only rite of surviving as a member of the Naruse family was to act as a personal servant for his more pure blooded siblings. Nonetheless, he was never embittered by his situation and dutifully undertook the lessons in both basic education as well as etiquette and maintained his responsibilities in a disciplined fashion. Unfortunately, that life came to an end when his mother died in a vehicular accident while on a trip with a branch family. He was quickly chased out of the family without hesitation and Sora quickly became enveloped in the workings of the underworld to provide for himself. He was taken under the wing of a fairly prominent narcotic dealer who had deep ties with the prostitution business. Initially, Sora's innocent and childish features at the time were used to transport narcotics and he received protection, but eventually, a female client with specific taste had offered to buy him and he was shortly enlisted as a gigolo.

He received rigorous training in martial arts as well as ample experience in the desires of his employer. His past training in etiquette elated his employer and for three year, he was brought wherever she went, on every vacation, meeting, and social event she participated in. He began to grow extremely attached to her and she filled the motherly figure, a void that had been left behind with the Naruse family. They maintained their twisted relationship for a full three years before Sora began to outgrow the tastes of his employer, and although they remained on amicable terms, Sora was effectively fired for his aging features. At the age of 13, he was once again on his own with a three year skillset as a gigolo and an abnormally composed countenance for an adolescent, thus he continued to market his service as such and for two more years, underwent various tasks and experiences doubling as bodyguard and lover. However, with each client and each employment, he became more emotionally scarred and his personality was slowly bent into a broken form.

With constant association with high profile figures and law enforcement, his connections continued to grow for the next three years as outlandish as his existence was. With time, his experiences grew, but so did the warps and snarls in his mind. At the age of 16 he had been interacting with his first employer when she suggest he take a break from everything and go to a school. As she had indirect connections with the Purple Crown Academy, she sponsored his entrance. She was quite hasty as she had noticed the extreme decline in his mental state.

He agreed without hesitation to his past mistress and enrolled in Purple Crown Academy on his own. Although he already has saved up money, he is in the process of moving to a low-end dorm as well as finding a part-time job to take part in to support his own living expenses at the school as to not dip into his past savings.

Personality
Sora is inherently calm due to his upbringing, he often conceals his reactions with frivolous demeanor and countenance. He is the spitting image of an overconfident playboy; however, he carries obtuse gaps in his own personality and feels a constant, nagging pressure to avoid personal connections, to the point that he gains a severe pit in his stomach should he begin to form emotional attachments

There are numerous habits built into Sora’s thought process due to his past lifestyle, generally, defensive measures as well as cautious behavior for those around him are virtually a part of him. Despite his shrewdness, he gives off an aura of being oblivious to his surroundings.

Although initially he had no interest in DGO, it has recently appealed to him as both a means of interacting with others as well as increasing his social status. When he began, he was somewhat flustered in his attempts at fighting with a different body from his own, but as he progressed, Sora began to truly engross himself in the combat. He attained newfound passion in fighting that he thoroughly enjoys.

Whenever Sora reaches a threshold of intensity while he is fighting, he unconsciously takes on a wolfish grin, becoming entirely enamored in the moment of battle.

Syshia Amachi

Appearance (Real Life):

Height: 5"7

Weight: 140

Hair Color: Black

Eye Color: Green

Name: Syshia Amachi

Age: 17

History: Syshia is and always had been a troubled child. Both of her biological parents died in a fire when she was 10 and ever since then she has lived with her oldest brother. The tragedy hit their family hard and instead of growing closer and comforting each other, instead they fell apart. Doors always closed and no communication lead to them leading their own lives with no interest in each other whatsoever. Being the middle child, Syshia has had no one to talk to; except for that stray cat that follows her around the neighborhood and brings her presents of dead mice.

Syshia went through high school with only one person you could barely call a friend. A boy named Nikuga. He was the only one who could appreciate her heightened intelligence but at the same time be there for her when she needed someone. She is now a senior and Nikuga is graduating with her and going his own way. She doesn't know what to do and is scared about setting foot into the real world without him.

Personality: Despite her childhood trauma, Syshia is a very outgoing, confident and loud spoken girl. People often don't like her because of how open she is and how she isn't afraid to voice her opinion or call people out on their bull shit. She doesn't have any friends besides Nikuga and doesn't like to open up to people without getting to know them very deeply first. She is very interested in music and you will almost never find her without her headphones on.

Appearance (Avatar):

Long, straight, fire red hair that descends down to the backs of her knees. Grey eyes that almost sparkle in the moonlight. Very pale skin tone with slender facial features. Freckles. Stands about 5"4 and weighs a very light 110 pounds. She wears tight white pants tucked into grey boots. Her upper portion is covered by a red tank top and a white robe with grey, vine like designs on it. This is made out of a thick material almost like leather to protect her from throwing knives or any other sharp material. She sometimes wears armor if she travels through dangerous areas. She carries a black bag with her everywhere she goes to keep her possessions in.

Height:

Eye Color:

Name:
Zachary Noris

Age:
15

History:
Zachary grew up in Los Angeles, California, where he spent much of his time doing... pretty much nothing. Yep, nothing, apart from schoolwork and chores, of course. His parents were often busy with work, which meant he had the entire house to himself. In elementary school, he often fell asleep in various places, and a classmate of his, who was also a childhood friend of his, usually woke him up and/or dragged him to class before the bell rang. He just could never muster the energy to do many things by himself. That was how much he liked to be lazy.

One day, he was told that he would be attending Purple Crown Academy. Zachary merely accepted the situation, not really keen on fighting it. Not that he even wanted to, except for the fact that his childhood friend would no longer be around to babysit him. There wasn't too much to worry though, as Zachary's parents were able to procure him a copy of Deep Ground. That way, he could still spend time with his friend even if they wouldn't see each other in real life as much as they used to. That was when Zachary discovered what he could do when his laziness no longer hindered him.

Personality:
Zachary is a quiet kid, rarely speaking up in just about any situation. He prefers to stay unnoticed and will spend time in his own little world. If there comes a time when he does have to speak, he does so using as few words as possible. He also appears to be quite listless, usually resting his head on his hands and sometimes falling asleep even in class. He does make the effort to at least keep his grades up in classwork and such, though.

In DGO, however, he takes on an entirely different persona. He is now a true devil, displaying an evil grin and showing no mercy to anyone or anything he fights, even laughing maniacally at times. He does whatever he wants, whenever he wants.

Anastasia Ivanovich

Appearance (Real Life):

Height: 131 cm

Weight: 35 kg

Hair Color: Red Ginger

Eye Color: Pale Green

Name: Anastasia Ivanovich

Age: 13

History: Anastasia is an only child, daughter of a Russian madman and an American seductress. Not to say that they were the worse of parents; turning their life around after hooking up, and trying to give their child at least a good foundation. They never, really, ever changed. Always off, whether together or separate, in their own little world and without resources to optimally care for another, but always there for their child if she ever needed them.

She never did, apart from meals growing up. Granted, she's only 13, 14 in a couple of months, so not a lot has really ever happened in her life up till now, though she did learn to cook and how to cover her living basics on her own. She never had a lot of friends, but she liked the one or two she hung out with, whenever that was. She was always out and about trying to understand the world in her own little way, taking chances, but never harming others. Every so often, she'd change her daily routine to replace her old crowd with a new one as she began again to get to know them. Though, she always made time for her old group, should've they called.

Personality: Anastasia was a free and gentle spirit that never really cared what was going on, rather more caring about who was around and what she could learn from them. She understood not everyone in the world would care to be even the slightest bit friendly, but oddly enough she found those people more interesting than most, sometimes annoying her enemies enough to back off and giving her most warm-hearted friends the cold shoulder. She is opposed to violence, but never minded retaliation or fictional targets. Occasionally bursting out in song under her breath or forgetting what exactly was going on in that moment became more common as she grew older, but not to the point she sees any harm.

Age: 13
Height: 5' 4"
Weight: smol
Hair color: (I'm slightly colorblind so I can't tell)
Eye color: ^^^^^

Bio: "You're a special boy…"
He's heard that many times and every time he wished it were more true. His family had a really fancy last name but they'd all been normal since the start of their family tree. His parents wanted Arkadian to be extraordinary for once, and to start with they gave him a special name. When he was younger he'd liked it until he realized how hard it was (mentally) to say it out loud and then he realized how bad mistakes could be. If he could've named himself he would have called himself Christopher, which is also the name of his cat. Regardless, he himself also wishes he was special because besides his name he has nothing else that makes him stand out in a good way.

His greatest fear is becoming insignificant to the people around him. He has a lot of difficulty keeping friends because if he feels like he isn't irreplaceable with someone better, he starts to drift away from them. He's aware of it but he can't seem to do much about it as he's also a terrible liar and it's easy to tell when he has something on his mind. He seems shy to begin with, but reality he has to think about his words carefully or else he might say everything that's on his mind, which also makes him bad at keeping secrets. He gets oddly competitive when it comes to the ways in which he's unique however, and never more competitive than when it comes to his avatar in Deep Ground Online. One thing he'll never talk about however is his name, as even he knows it's cringe worthy when you say it out loud.

But in the end, that's all there is to him. There's nothing else that makes him significant. Even if he was forgettable, that fact alone would be significant, but he has nothing. The only thing he really has himself is his Avatar.

Abilities:

Level 1

Arkadian - Level 1: Celestial Emissary
This is a passive summoning type ability which gives him Arkadian an AI controlled permanent familiar. The full name of the familiar is Christopher the Cosmo Cat, Emissary of the Stars; and is based on Arkadian's desire to have Christopher, his Actual Cat, Emissary of Tuna Consumption; with him in Deep Ground Online, but Christopher the Actual Cat must unfortunately stay in reality. Christopher the Cosmo Cat still makes Arkadian incredibly homesick for Christopher the Actual Cat however.

Christopher the Cosmo Cat does have many marked differences in appearance which ease Arkadian's homesickness. Christopher the Actual Cat was a fairly normal cat, its only notable feature being its white fur and the amount of tuna Arkadian had to feed it before it had any substantial increase in weight. Christopher the Cosmo Cat however, glows silver at night, and even sports stars on its fur whenever there is complete darkness.

Christopher the Cosmo Cat has his own health pool separate from Arkadian's. If Christopher dies, he is reformed next to Arkadian as soon as stars become visible to Arkadian. Christopher cannot attack normally, and can only use abilities. He does not use Arkadian's abilities however, but instead gains his own unique abilities at levels 1, 2 and 5. Christopher also floats a few feet off the ground constantly, but has been known to walk occasionally.

Christopher the Cosmo Cat - Level 1: Cosmosis
When using this ability, Christopher the Cosmo Cat stays still for a while to channel the power of the cosmos, bring it to a simmer, add in herbs and spices and release it all in a devastating explosion of cosmic energy. This ability gains strength from direct exposure to the stars but can be done without, even though it'd be like having boxed frozen turkey roast instead of getting an actual turkey for christmas. Your Auntie will question your life decisions and you'll question her alcoholism, and it'll be a horrible time all around if you were looking forward to it. It's not terrible however, and if you weren't expecting it you might be pleasantly surprised that Christmas Dinner wasn't as bad as last year.

The power decreases during the day and when the sky isn't completely visible, and is impossible to use underground. It also takes longer to cook up a meaningful amount of cosmic energy with less exposure on your surface area (it takes longer to charge).

Christopher cannot move while channelling Cosmosis, however the cosmic energy heals him constantly while he is channelling it. There also isn't anything stopping Arkadian from moving Christopher himself, but it's not like he has telekinesis so he can't move him at range.
cooldown: N/A, but charging should take about one post

Level 2

Arkadian - Level 2: Cloak of Starlight
When activating this ability, the stars on Arkadian's cloak start to shine and it gains the ability to grow and shrink at will. Cloak of Starlight is able to absorb and nullify any ranged attack that hits it, but it will only be able to absorb an amount of attacks equal to 1.5 times his level.

An attack is classified as something equal to something large like a tank shell, or a volley of 6-7 bullets.

Cloak of Starlight does not completely protect against melee strikes, but blunt attacks and stabbing attacks will have their damage halved and additional effects nullified, and slashing attacks will end Cloak of Starlight's duration prematurely if sufficient damage is inflicted onto it.

Cloak of Starlight lasts for 1 round plus another round per 3 character levels Arkadian possesses and cools down in 3 rounds, starting after the duration ends.

Christopher the Cosmo Cat - Level 2: Astral Shift
Astral Shift allows Christopher to teleport a short distance away in any direction. He teleports in a small flash of light, but that's mostly a cosmetic feature. It can be used while Christopher is channelling Cosmosis, and also passively allows Christopher to be conscious during Cosmosis so he can teleport properly. He still cannot move quickly while channelling Cosmosis however.

Astral Shift has no cooldown, but can only be used once per action, which for Christopher means once per round.

Name: Kanbaru Otoko

Age: 16

History:

It's a commonly held belief that succeeding in DGO is like getting the Golden Ticket to the chocolate factory, guaranteeing success, good fortune, and ease in life. That being able to slay draconic Dissolutions and swing a sword or sling a spell in fantastical conflicts among bickering guilds will translate into something of value after one turns 18 and is thrust into the real world. Yet success in Deep Ground Online can't ensure that every person can live the life of luxury.

Kanbaru was born and raised by parents who were remarkably adept in DGO, addicted even. If asked they could have handled a fifty player raid with only ten, but when it came to managing their finances or keeping a home they were hopeless. From a young age, their daughter had the burden of making up for their deficiencies. Her mother could cook and clean, and her father held a nine to five job, but Kanbaru had to be the one to budget for food, painstakingly explain that credit cards didn't let you buy things without cost, and overall manage the family debts.

While it once may have been an excessive burden placed upon her shoulders, Kanbaru came to value the control she had over her life. She bore a disdain for the waxy eyed nostalgia that her family and many others bore for DGO, but played the game regardless when she came of age. While there was little real world value in fighting monsters, Kanbaru couldn't deny there was an appeal in playing the in-game markets to her advantage. She's since moved out of her home and into a room at Purple Crown Academy to get a decent education while securing her own autonomy.

Personality:

Enterprising and with a keen eye always open for new opportunity, Kanbaru is enamored with the pursuit of economic prosperity and stability. She is a remarkably agreeable person even in the company of people she dislikes, more concerned with maintaining bridges then the catharsis of expressing disgust. Capable of turning a blind eye to some distasteful acts if it benefits her in the long run, but acknowledges that ethical behavior can have value as well.

In terms of DGO, Broker of Fortune prefers to make her way through trading goods and services or working the farms of her guild's land. Doesn't have the interest in PvP that seems to consume others beyond seeing it as an opportunity to sell her services at a mint.

Avatar Abilities:

Achieved

Lvl 1- Infusion: Broker of Fortune can apply the attributes of an item to a weapon she's in contact with, at the cost of that item. For example, applying a healing potion to a gun would make the bullet's restore health rather than do damage. Applying a bomb to a mace will make the next blow cause an explosion equivalent to the bomb's natural detonation force directed outwards from the mace.
Passive Ability

Lvl 2- Disassembly: An attack via Broker's equipped weapon that does no direct damage to the target beyond stunning for 3 seconds. Upon hitting armor or weaponry they will be broken down into mats and left in a brown paper wrapped parcel on the ground. Anyone can claim this package and the loot, but assembly will be required. Does not work on structures like walls, siege weaponry, or vehicles.
Active Ability | Casting: Instant | Cooldown: 1 Round

Lvl 3- Overhaul: Broker of Fortune performs maintenance on nearby friendly weapons and weapon emplacements, receiving a 10% Damage increase for each of Broker of Fortune's current levels. IE, Lvl 1 = 10%. Lvl 3 = 30%. Lvl 9 = 90%.
Active Skill | Duration: Five Rounds | Cooldown: 1 Action

Lvl 5- Requisition: Broker of Fortune throws out an anchor-like hook on a line of wire. If used on an unaware enemy the anchor will steal whatever it catches on and reel it back to Broker. When the enemy is aware, Broker will either pull the target the back to her or be pulled to them. Functions like a grappling hook if used on the environment and pulls her along.
Active Skill | Casting Time: 1 Action | Cooldown: 1 Round

Lvl 7- Norn's Token: A physical coin manifested on Broker's person representing a good fortune in life, and has the passive and active traits referred to as Blessing or Bribery. When on the person of Broker of Fortune or an ally, it increases their chance of a critical hit by 50% with an additional 5x damage multiplier to the bae critical damage applied. If the coin is transferred, whether by infusion or being placed/thrown, to an enemy, then they shall gain the same benefits as a Bribe. Bribed enemies come under Broker's control for a duration of 3 Rounds before it automatically returns to Broker of Fortune.
Blessing | Passive Skill
Bribery | Active Skill | Casting time: 1 Action | Duration: 3 Rounds | Cooldown: 4 Rounds

Unachieved

Lvl 9- \\ INSUFFICIENT LEVEL REACHED \\ Terraform: Similar to infusion, but applied to the environment extending in a 100ft radius of Broker of Fortune. For example, Terraforming with a blade makes every surface have a cutting edge to it. A slime would cause everything to sink into a gelatinous earth. A Virgin's Soul causes the environment to be haunted by violent spirits consumed by regret. (Treat as Case-by-Case basis for GM review)

Lvl 3- Armor Piercing: Ranged attacks ignore 10% of defense.

Lvl 4- Combat Armor: Reduce melee damage taken by 20%.

Lvl 5- Sleight of Hand: Reload time for ranged weapons are halved. In addition, you may switch weapons instantaneously.

Lvl 6- Cripple: You attack your opponent in such a way that you broke something. Different targets will cause different effects: Legs will slow them down, arms will weaken their attacks, body will weaken their defense, and heads will lower their accuracy. You can only break a body part once until they are fully healed.

Lvl 7- Swift Slayer: Ground movement speed increased by 50%.

Unachieved

Lvl 8- Adaptive Ability / Crawling Chaos: You cause pain to all opponents who are merely in your presence. For ever thirty seconds they are within 50 feet of you, they take 5% damage. Their speed is also cut down to a 1/3 of their max, and prevents flight or teleportation.

Lvl 9- Master of Arms: Allows you to use any equipment regardless of class restrictions.

A single shot, high caliber handgun used primarily in conjunction with Infusion, but is a potent weapon in it's own right.

history

Thomas was born to loving parents, though his mother wasn’t often there. She’d had quite a successful career due to deep ground, though even after that was over, her love of adventure often got the better of her. She became a reporter, trekking around the globe for something interesting. His father was reliable enough, if a little distant, but Thomas never had anything against his parents. From a young age, he was taught how to do household chores and take responsibility, but he never complained. It had to be done, so he did it. The one solace from his mundane life was his cousin, whose company he enjoyed more than pretty much anyone. Fast forward a few years of monotony and a few things change. While he remains whimsical as ever, he’s a little less energetic than he was. He doesn’t have many friends, though that suits him alright. Then Deep ground happens. His initial impression is rather mixed. On the one hand, it’s an interesting game to whittle down the time. On the other hand, it’s rather odd that it would decide your future. He couldn’t really bring himself to like it all that much, however, because it seemed a little unfair, in a way he couldn’t really describe. So instead of opting to spend his entire high-school life focused on Deep Ground, like many other people his age did, he decided to try and become successful through his own efforts. He was initially against enrolling in Purple Crown but once he found out that his cousin was going there and that their education was quite high quality, he decided to enroll. He joined the news club to help his cousin who idolised his mother, though the news club was already in its decline at that point. At the tender age of 16, he became the president of the news club and plans to revitalise the dead club.

Personality: Thomas is layed back about a lot of things and tends not to worry about the future. He likes to conserve his strength in case he needs it. Even though he’s quite laid back, when things need to be done he gets down to business, becoming much more serious. He has a talent for commanding people, though he’s not exactly a leader type. Still somewhat whimsical on occasion, doing frivolous things on a whim. He has a soft spot for his family and his cousin, but is otherwise fairly stubborn to things he considers worth the effort.

Skills

Level 1: Mark of the puppet master
Category:Passive/Active
Passively, the puppet master’s attacks attach a visible mark to the target. When the skill is activated, the puppet master chooses a marked target. Depending on whether or not the marked target is an ally or an enemy, the marks increase the damage the target deals or increases the damage they take by 10% for 5 minutes. Additional marks stack for a total of up to 50%, though more marks can be applied. The marks can be removed by the target through physical contact. The marks can also be administered by the puppet master via touch and do not persist through death.
Cast time:Nearly instant
Cooldown: 5 actions per target effective after the ability ends

Level 2: Puppet creation
Category: Active/Passive
The puppet master summons a puppet that mimics his appearance. The puppet has 50% of the puppet master’s hp and attack attributes, though keeps the puppet master’s defense attribute (including armour). The puppet is treated as an extension of the puppet master and the puppet master can use his abilities and feats through the puppet except for puppet creation, though normal cooldowns still apply. The puppet must be equipped with weapons after being created as it isn’t created with weapons. The puppet master can have up to 3 puppets out at once, though he can’t directly control more than he can concentrate on (2 with no distractions). The puppet master can either issue simple commands to his puppets or take command personally and use the puppet to act remotely. Puppet attacks apply the marks to their targets. This spell has 2 charges which accrue even while the puppet master is offline.
Cast time: 3 seconds
Cooldown: 2 time increments

Level 3: Sense share
Toggled skill. The puppet master picks a target and trades either his sense of sight, smell, touch, hearing or taste for one of the target’s senses. The target needs to have at least one mark for the skill to be used. Both the puppet master and the target keep their traded senses but both can sense other’s traded sensations. For example, the puppet master can choose to share his sence of taste for a target’s sight. If the target was not informed before, they will have a strange taste in their mouth that they can’t explain while the puppet master will be able to see what they see. When the skill is toggled, marks on the target glow faintly if senses are being shared. Senses can be ignored by knowing targets. If touch is shared, damage is not dealt to the puppet master but he will feel pain.
Cast time: None

History

Hider

Johanna was born to Alexander and Annabelle Stryfe, who married more so due to circumstance than love. Johanna's father was apparently a genius who was destined for success, until DGO got in his way. He had a constant streak of failure, barely winning enough to secure himself a low paying desk job. Her mother's situation fared much the same, meeting Alexander in the office where they both worked for low pay. They were fond of each other, but not enough to want to marry as immediately as they did. They had only dated for a year before they married and had a child, with the ultimate goal of having that child succeed where they both failed.

From an early age, Johanna's parents controlled most aspects of her life. She was to always look, talk, and act in a certain manner, and never reveal any ill will she may harbor towards others. While this might seem like noble parenting, Johanna's parents only wanted their daughter to come off as perfect and likable. If one was to succeed at Purple Crown Academy, they would need to excel in everything, public relations included.

Johanna never had time for herself. If she wasn't at school, or participating in some public event at the behest of her parents, she was locked in her room, studying. Her grades had to remain at top levels, or else she would receive punishment. This punishment varied from time to time, though it often consisted of being denied access to food for multiple days. Eventually, Johanna learned to never stray from the commands of her parents.

Once Johanna started going to Purple Crown, and started playing DGO, her parent's rules got stricter. Once she returned home, she was to immediately finish all homework and study, following this with several hours of DGO, up until it was time for her to sleep. She was not allowed to have any relationships, as these would require time out from her day, and distract from her schedule. Johanna was allowed to join clubs, as these would only be helpful, but she has yet to join one. If her grades fell below perfect, she would be subjected to punishment.

Johanna has always felt overwhelmed by her parent's cruel treatment, but has no grounds to stand against them. She can't really do anything to stop them, so she simply goes along with their plans. They just want her to succeed. She puts on the dull act of pretty miss perfect to succeed as they want her to, but falters under the knowledge that the real Johanna means nothing to anyone.

When Johanna first started playing DGO, she focused on being ruthless, attempting to finish every fight quickly to get the most efficient use of her time. She never had time to waste on other people in DGO, so she took on the persona of a silent psychopath who annihilated anyone who attempted to challenge her. She quickly made distinctions between her outward persona and her Abyss Walker persona. Both of these false identities took up a large portion of her thoughts, and she struggled to separate them at first. Of course, both of these shells hid the true Johanna, who was little more than a weak, sad, and bitter girl who just wanted someone to actually care about her, the real her, not the fake Johanna.

In the real world, Johanna had to come up with a reason why she didn't disclose her username for DGO. She told many people that the reasoning for this was that just didn't want to unfairly benefit in DGO from her real world popularity. She told people that she was fine at the game, but died pretty often, when in reality, Abyss Walker had only ever died once. If Johanna dies in DGO and her parents find out, she will be harshly punished.

Over her time at Purple Crown Academy, Johanna has risen in popularity, being known as "that girl who just can't be THAT perfect" and Abyss Walker has become infamous in DGO for it's ruthless tactics. Though, the stress continued to build on Johanna, with nothing and no one to offload that stress on to. That is, until a few weeks ago.

A lot has happened for Johanna Stryfe in the past 4 weeks. She joined the Ivory Masks guild, putting Abyss Walker's psychotic ruthlessness to use as a hired hand. Essentially, players could hire Abyss Walker to help them in some task, be it something mundane, or an entire boss fight, or even assaulting another player. Though, any PvP actions are considered dealings with Abyss Walker, and not the Ivory Masks guild. Abyss Walker's tie to the white guild is rather loose, and she can barely be considered a member. In addition, Johanna told her good friend Hibiki Toho about everything, save for the punishments. Johanna had been friends with the younger girl for several years, but couldn't bear keeping up the lie any longer. Hibiki is the only other person who knows that Johanna is Abyss Walker. Johanna has also been out for the past week with a relatively bad illness, which prevented her from going to school or playing a lot of DGO.

Personality

Hider

Johanna Stryfe, often just called Hanna, is a sweet, likable girl. She tries to be friendly to everyone, and lift up those in need of a helping hand. While nice, she's still willing to be honest to people, though it's coated in her usual sweetness. Hanna also happens to be rather intelligent, holding some of the highest grades in Purple Crown Academy. It's almost as if the girl has no flaws. She's kind, likable, honest, and smart. The only remotely off aspects of her character are her aversion to relationships and her unwillingness to divulge her DGO name. Yes, she's nearly perfect.
Or, at least, she is on the surface.

Behind the falsity that is Johanna Stryfe is a sad, stressed, and scared young girl. Johanna is forced to live her life as this paragon of perfection, with no individuality, and no one who actually cares about the real Johanna, not even her parents. Johanna wants to succeed, mostly due to the obedience that was more or less beaten into her, but even more than that she wants to be cared about. She wants to have someone who didn't care about her succeeding, but just wanted to be there for her, as a sort of emotional anchor. For once, Johanna wanted to depend on someone else without having to be absolutely perfect.

And then there is Abyss Walker. Within DGO, Johanna adopted a third personality, one that is absolutely, and entirely ruthless. While playing as Abyss Walker, Johanna adopts an entirely different mindset, attempting to block out all the thoughts relating to her miserably perfect life. While playing DGO, she completely becomes Abyss Walker, and stops being Johanna Stryfe. Abyss Walker has only one goal: level up. As long as she does that, everything is just a means to an end. Be it mercenary work, or helping new players beat a dungeon, Abyss Walker will do anything for a reasonable amount of Exp. Abyss Walker is known for her ruthless, and reckless play style, as well as having only ever died once in DGO. Another notable trait is her lack of talking in DGO.

Avatar Abilities

Abyssal Edge

Passive ability that equips Abyss Walker with the unique weapon "Abyssal Edge". This weapon cannot be unequipped, but does not restrict Abyss Walker from wielding other weapons. If Abyss Walker would attack with another weapon equipped, Abyssal Edge has a 20% chance to deal damage to Abyss Walker.

Crown of Thorns

Abyss Walker has two arcs of black energy, with three rays of energy on each, sprouting from the back of each side of her face-plate. When this ability is activated, Abyss Walker pulls these arcs out (Unlike Abyssal Edge, the blades from this ability deal no damage to Abyss Walker) , holding them from the middle ray, as each arc forms into a full circle with a longer fourth ray protruding from them, as a sort of blade. These blades have a higher base damage than Abyssal Edge, but only last for 30 seconds. If damage is dealt to Abyss Walker while Crown of Thorns is active, an extra 10 seconds is added to this ability's time limit. Crown of thorns has a cooldown of 10 rounds, though this is reduced by 1 round each time Abyss Walker takes damage (this reduction cannot occur while Crown of Thorns is active).

Precarious Edge

Passive ability that boosts Abyss Walker's attack speed based on how low her HP is. The chart below shows how much attack speed is gained at for each 1% of health lost. At 1% health, Abyss walker can attack at 5.2 times her normal speed, or a 520% increase. (Note: these percentages are based on Abyss Walkers current max HP. If Abyss Walker's HP were to significantly increase, the percentages would scale. This was just the most understandable way to write it without knowing her exact HP)
Health point Percentages| Percentage of Atk speed gained per 1% Health loss
100%-81%| 1%
80%-61%| 2%
60%-51%| 3%
50%-41%| 4%
40%-31%| 5%

Equipment:

From these arcs of energy come three rays of this energy from each arm, which are all of equal length. Abyssal Edge's base damage scales with Abyss Walker's level.

Personality:

Donovan is always bursting with warmth 'n' good vibes, always looking on the brighter sides of things, and his extroverted personality makes his good vibes contagious. Amiable, brave, and kind, his exterior is that of your stereotypical ideal hero with extra adventurousness. Unfortunately the teen, while not stupid, will sometimes do stupid things that inconvenience himself such as risking his own life to save strangers, assist those who are less fortunate than him when he's already in a rut, and et cetera because it is good. He has a moral code that he'll always attempt to stick by.

Among his less than heroically-pure characteristics is a desire for glory, recognition, and riches that the boy doesn't allow to tarnish his current reputation as a goody goody who just wants to help people. In reality Donovan is one of the most ruthless traders in a guild full of ruthless traders. His lust for power and righteousness often clash when making decisions, and the more selfish part of Donovan occasionally rears its ugly head whenever matters of self-gain arise.

History:

For as long as he could remember Donovan wanted to be a doctor, being raised in a household where his sole provider was a medical practitioner being an obvious cause for this. The boy's childhood was full of tales about legendary heroes accompanied with stories of his father's success as a surgeon and teachings about how important it is to be a good, selfless individual. It is only natural that Donovan aspires to help people and receive power, and the most blatant way to him is to become a doctor like his father. That'd make him so proud! Donovan spends much of his time learning about medicine, first aid, and the like. The problem is, hard work in the real world alone won't guarantee his position as a successful doctor; he'd have to preform well in Deep Ground Online. He personally doesn't like that it works that way, but he can't do anything to change it. With lots of support from his loving father, Donovan managed to get an apartment near Purple Crown before beginning his studies. Now majority of his time goes into helping around at any hospitals in the city, studying, and Deep Ground Online.
