Alfheim Online: Fairy Dance of Death [Open]

I'm all for the PKing character achetype though, it adds so much for plot :P.

Alfheim Online: Fairy Dance of Death [Open]

Oh shit no I think my post is just too vague. The timeline was supposed to be :

-Olof joins Alfheim
- creates successful PK guild
- PKing becomes real
- olofs guild fractures into fringe groups that PK anyway
- Olof and what's left of his guild huntdown PKing former members
- PKing groups get relatively under control a couple of weeks later
- elections happen

@Luckyshot67

But that still doesn't fit the setting especially when only a month has elapsed. For those sequence of events to even work it would have to go something like: Olof though not being a tester and with no previous VR experience, gathered a bunch of capable players to follow him and he went on a PKing rampage and was not stopped by neither the testers against PKing in his own faction as well as those in others. Then despite being well known, the players he PKed took no precautions whatsoever? PKing in enemy territory is severely disadvantageous for obvious reasons yet he seemingly killed enough noobs (game did just start) to rise to riches.

Then he somehow goes on a new leaf and shuts all his old PKing mates down and despite his blood soaked reputation the Sylphs all want him as their leader despite the repercussions of obviously being the enemy of whoever he PKed meaning the entire Sylphs territory is surrounded by enemies.

That's not how mob mentality works bro. You make out the masses to be completely inept -.- I'm on a phone so it's really hard to write down all my points but these few should be enough tbh.

As it stands, his history needs a complete overhaul. I'm not saying you can't make a PKing type race or etc but it has to be feasible. For example, it would make ore sense if he was gathering influence by rounding up testers and capable people to win the elections and force PKing to happen with a surprise attack. Not that he was a PKing boss from the beginning.

Live the game

Ever since SAO, there's been a huge number of stories being released off the virtual reality/trapped trope and they've all done different takes on it.

It's honestly next to impossible to get any tract on it when you're competing against Log Horizon, Legendary Moonlight Sculptor, Overlord and etc.

Preferred roleplaying setting?

@NuttsnBolts@Keyguyperson

Both the opposite of me :P, personally I think sci-fi can only really be enjoyable if there's either a set universe or a group of very capable roleplayers. Otherwise, it's very easy to for it to delve into something very messy.

@1Charak2Love the charter. You have fetishes for the weirdest things, why a plane when everyone is capable of flight and there are airborne mobs? A gundam would be so much cooler...

Hm I used the reference that you made about the panic and confusion in the first week. I can easily edit it though to make the guild split and disband instead of PKing each other

It would make sense though with how pvp is encouraged in the game that there would be a few fringe groups trying to get an advantage by PKing. Except very low key because of large guilds and beta testers keeping everyone in check.

I'll just edit it for now so maby later the disbanded guild members could make an appearance Of some sort

@Luckyshot67

Except yours was a powerful and large guild which seemed to have influence over the Sylphs :P, I did mention in the first IC that there was more or less an unspoken agreement between the influential 'leaders' of each faction at the time. Maybe as a smaller guild that had growing influence that got shut down by the Slyphs or etc would work.

You guys need to think about player demographics too. Salamanders have the largest population whereas Spriggans and Pucas have the least..

@Luckyshot67As it stands, PKing is currently frowned upon and hasn't really been done on a massive scale if you read the first post of the IC. I'm not against making a PK character but his history is very out of place at the moment.

Preferred roleplaying setting?

Fantasy. Be it medieval, modern, high or anime-esque.

The problems I have with sci-fi roleplays is the jargon required is insane and confusing. The worst part is usually the conflicting technology because there is no set universe to base it off on.
