Fixing The Program [Interest Check]

"Welcome to the game. What can you do for the world of Zytouno? The world is in chaos due to the attacking demons from the netherworld. The demon king's men are attacking villages and terrorizing civilians. It is your job to liberate the Zytounians and drive out the evil in the land."
The message appeared to all players who had entered the game. Little did they know that if they died in the game, they could die in real life as well. There was an unknown problem in the system of the game called "Reborn". A fatal one.

So, basically what I was thinking with this roleplay is:

The game is a virtual reality game where the player's consciousness is transferred into the virtual world. The problem is that instead of respawning in the nearest after death, the game acts as though the player has logged off, but they aren't sent back to their bodies after death. The problem in the game is caused by one of the three head developers, Jason, for his own twisted motives. You can be a player, or a developer, or both. Our task is not to complete the game, but to fix the problem in the system. You can choose to help our corrupt developer succeed or help the good guys succeed.

Reborn

Major towns

Driis City - This is where the beginning of the game takes place, AKA tutorial town. The first few quests take place here. Players start out here unless they are of the necromancer class.

Adra - The first wave of storyline quests take place in this town.

Reiston Town - This is the central town as well as the hub town. The guild hall, the auction house, and fashion show are located in this town. NPCs who give event quests are also located here. The second wave of storyline quests take place here. The final battle of the main story is here, in the royal castle. Beware of lag here, it usually isn't server sided.

Uldas - The third wave of storyline quests take place here.

Esrenn - The fourth wave of storyline quests take place here. This is the capital of the smaller kingdom in the game. It is a lot smaller than Reiston. It is a town of magic users.

Mystic Town - Cats. Cats everywhere. Well, half cats at least. This town is home to a race of cat people called the catowinds. The fifth wave of storyline quests take place here.

Cascade City - If you thought cats were bad, get a load of the sharks. While the sharks aren't walking around giving you quests, they infest the waters in this ocean side town and are a part of the seventh wave of quests. Looking for the Pirate King world boss? He appears in the middle of the bay on his ship. You have to glide to get there. Hope you aren't afraid of heights... Or sharks.

Other areas

Overworld

Pirate Cove - This area is the best area to get gold. This is also an early area, used for tutorial quests. World boss: Pirate Pete.
The Plains - The plains are the area you'll pass through the most going from town to town or to dungeons.
World Boss: Noriman, a large centaur.
The Ice Field - Ice. Snow. Nothing else except for the occasional ice beast, snow man, or other creatures that live in the cold.
World boss: The Abominable Snowman
The Magma Forest - The trees here are made of molten rock and will hurt you if you touch them. It is the only way to get to Esrenn. The creatures here are all fire-based.
World boss: A demon goat named Art.
The Evanesce Wood - This place is pretty grim, the trees are dying and the atmosphere is very purple.
World boss: Sid (Abnormally large woodbeast)
Misty Plains - There's a lot of fog here, so not much is visible. The monsters here all blend in. Targeting is your friend. No world boss.
The Storm Coast - As the name suggests, it's always storming. You can find lots of earth slimes here. Necromancers start out here and have tutorial quests.
World Boss: Lightning McGee

Dungeons

Now presenting to you the second easiest way to gain EXP. Raid dungeons and kill bosses. Parties gain more EXP than single players.

The Pirate Den - Pirate Pete's lair! A lot of treasure is here. Maybe if you defeat him you can take some.
Crystal Cave - Lair of the crystal dragon. The enemies here are all dragons (not just of the crystal variety) The boss is the corrupted crystal dragon first time. Regular crystal dragon any other time.
Silent Icefield - Ice. Snow. Death from all the ice creatures. The boss is Armin of the Demon Army.
Volcano Valley Core - The inside of a volcano, this place is hot. You'll need fire resistant armor to enter the first time. The boss is a rock monster. The rocks are actually molten, but the monster retains its shape.
The Dead Wood - Darkness based monsters are here. Tree stumps are here. The area is hilly. The boss is a giant moth of death.
Rainmist Village - This place has more visibility than its overworld area! It's just rainy. There are a lot of zombies in this old town. The boss is James of the Demon army.
Reiston Castle - You'll come here quite a lot. It becomes a dangerous dungeon when the demon army attacks and takes over. That is when areas other than the throne room will be available to enter. The boss is Erin, the demon king.

-non storyline dungeons-

Demon King's Lair
Sun Dungeon
Moon Dungeon
Miner's Peak
Cascade Rift
Omni House

Residential Areas

These are areas where players can rent houses if they have enough gold. No, they're not to live in. What gave you that idea? They're to sell items without having to have an item bag that will take up inventory space. They cost one million gold, by the way.

Items

Equippable

Armor

Heavy Armor - Armor with the highest defense and protection. Mages, ninjas, rogues, fighters, alchemists, and necromancers can't wear this armor. The strongest armor of this type is the Warrior's Soul Armor.
Light Armor - For all classes, not as protective as most heavy armor. Giants can't wear this type of armor. The strongest is the Hero's Light Armor

Hats

Hats provide further protection and defense. It is to be put on the head. The strongest is the Helm of Cragolith which can be equipped only by humans.

Weapons

Certain classes use certain weapons better than others. weapon - class - strongest
Sword/shield - Warrior - The Blade of the Fallen Hero/Bone Pirate Shield.
Claws - catsassin - King's Claws
Shuriken - Ninja - Aiko
Instruments(that can be carried) - Bard - Maria Lyre
Dual Blades - Duelist - The Sorrow Blades
Twin Guns - Gunslinger - Pete's Beauties
Knuckles - fighter - The Iron Knuckles
Cylinder - Alchemist - Demonic Hurricane Cylinder (Wind)
Daggers - Rogue - Devil's fangs
Puppets - Puppeteer - Red eyes (small girl with red eyes and blue hair)
Scythe - Necromancer - The Reaper
Wand(not needed to use magic skills, increases power) - mage - Divine tri-bolt wand
Lance - Knight - Airi's revenge
Two-handed weapons - claymore/Blue Knight's battle axe

Robes

Robes - Useless except for covering yourself. Some boost magic, most are just cover. Only one is useful, and it disappears after one quest.

Accessories

Accessories are items that can boost your stats. They have a low durability, but they take a while to lose that durability. They cost a fortune to repair.

Restoration items

Items that restore HP, Stamina and MP. The ones that restore the most per second are masterful potions.

Buff items

You can use potions or food for buffs. The better the food, the greater the buff.

Classes

General

Anyone can use learn skils, but you'll get boosts for stats representing these skills if your class corresponds. Players can have up to two classes with classes that boost life skills as an exception. Life skill classes can be gained to go along with your main and sub classes after you complete a specific quest.

Warrior
catsassin
Ninja
Bard
Duelist
Gunslinger
fighter
Alchemist
Rogue
Puppeteer
Necromancer - At level 50, you'll get the option to rebirth into this class. You'll have to start over as though you've created a new account.

Mixture

Two specialties sometimes make a new class. Only certain ones though. Using these as your class will boost the skills of both classes.

Battle Bard - Warrior, Bard
Ninja Catsassin - Ninja, catsassin
Spellsword - Mage, warrior
Dark Mage - Necromancer, mage
Assassin - Rogue, Duelist

Storyline quest waves summary

Storyline quests are the easiest way to gain EXP. If you've already finished the storyline, congrats. YYou get to grind in dungeons.

Tutorial - Pirate Pete's crew is running rampant through Driis City causing trouble for the citizens. Help the citizens put forward a plan to drive them out.
Wave 1 - 1 The animals around Adra have become corrupted somehow, and they are causing trouble for the townspeople, and they are unable to prepare for their sun festival. (Around two quests)
1 - 2 With the rowdy wildlife put at bay for the moment, the citizens need to gather some more materials for their festival before it's too late. You'd better help out too! (Three quests)
1 - 3 Oh no! The alligators around these parts are causing problems now. Defeat them so the festival can go on.(1 quest)
1 - 4 We've found out why the wildlife was being so violent. A band of imps were causing it using magic. Now they're trying to unseal the Crystal Cave! (3 quests + Boss)

Wave 2 The king wants to speek with you. What could he want? (10 quests, get new armor and weapon, select sub class, meet and run errands for shop owners) You'll learn about the demon king's plans and will be asked to help the divine knights fight against the army.

Wave 3 - The demons are trying to steal the orbs of light found in Uldas and destroy them. Stop them before its too late. You'll meet a demon rebel who will give you hints. (5 quests, unlock dungeon Volcano Valley)

Wave 4 - You saved the orbs of light and made it to Esrenn. Once you get there however, they try to arrest you for being in cahoots with the demons. The head of the knights helps you out and asks you to complete quests to prove your loyalty. (7 quests, unlock dungeon: The Dead Wood)

Wave 5 - You've once again proved your loyalty to the Divine Knights and head out towards Mystic Town to recruit the Catowinds to help fight against the demon army. They agree to help if you can stop the mysterious creatures that come out of the fog to attack them. (5 quests, Unlock Rainmist Village)

Wave 6 - The Icefield is now a temporary battleground as the Divine Knights try to keep the demon army from advancing. They should pull back if you defeat their commander. Infiltrate the Silent Icefield and kill Armin! (6 quests, unlock dungeon Silent Icefield)

Wave 7 - Shark attack! The sharks around here usually aren't too much of a problem, but something is causing them to attack ships. The mayor of Cascade City says he can't do anything to help the Divine Knights until this problem is solved. (4 quests)

Final - The demon army has moved in to attack Reiston City. With your new army assembled, head back to the castle to settle things once and for all. (2 quests, Final Boss)

You can also have pets called sprites that help you in battle. These sprites can go through a process called evolution to get stronger.

Bio:
Maya is the daughter of the CEO of Ridley entertainment. Her great grandfather created the Complete Immersion Virtual Reality Headgear, which would transfer the player's mind into any game that supported the software. Since then, the company began making games for it as it continued to improve. Maya has always loved writing and her father knew this. Hr would read her stories and turn them into the stories for video games. Up until she was twelve years old, her stories were pretty simple and required a lot of editing. Afterwards, not so much. At the age of fifteen, her mother began taking her to talent searches to have her casted in shows and movies. She has been acting for two years in roles of action heroines and other roles that involved combat. She didn't like to use stunt doubles for parts of scenes that could be dangerous because she would miss out on the fun. Though some days she could be pretty lazy, she would always try her best to get everything right in her acting. During her breaks, she would write to pass the time, or take naps. She played in roles where romance was involved, but she never knew what it was really like to be in love. Anyone she dated was too polite, stalker-ish, or a money grubber. When she heard about the experiment, she thought about what a relationship with an AI would be like. The possibilities she thought of in her mind made her want to try it.
