Made edits to the CS I posted a few days earlier. ...

It's basically complete as is, all I have to do is find the time to work on the picture, when it's not two in the morning.

Background:
In the real world, Samuel was a regular man, whom spent short days as a student and long nights as a skilled gunner and support mage in an action MMO. His career in that MMO came to an end shortly after he expressed a passing interest in, “That new game with all the petting zoo people,” a number of his classmates had picked up after its release.

They conspired to force an Elder Tale account upon him, so that he could be the party’s healer. Enamored by his first new game in years, he ignored his friends’ advice on racial selection and class build. He proceeded to reroll his first fifty levels several times and never quite became the healer his friends hoped for. He did get very good at the art of grinding, though, and was able to help his friends efficiently reach each level cap.

Eventually, his classmates slowly stopped playing Elder Tale. Now significantly invested in the game, Sam kept his account and switched to a production subclass to occupy time between classes and work on his introversion. Eventually, supporting his brewery drove him to continue leveling up as a druid, in order to acquire rare ingredients. He was caught up in the apocalypse on the year he intended to obtain his degree and enter the workforce.

Personality
Laguna Seca (‘Laguna,’ or, ‘LaSeca,’ to most) is, overall, a very nice person whom wants little more than to be trustworthy and helpful to others. At the moment, he is stressed by being transported into a new life without any warning, and is still coping. His work selling beverages to other players has turned him into an outgoing character that isn’t afraid of working with others or making a passing attempt at diplomacy.

Turkey Target – Generate a massive amount of hate with a high decay rate.
1 second cast time, 30 second cooldown.

Fierce Mold – Strike the opponent and cause corrosive mold to spring from the point of impact. Significantly reduces defense of affected target.
1.5 second cast time, 15 second cooldown.

Subclass/Passive
Advanced Brew – Allows the creation of top-tier beverages as foodstuffs.

Advanced Craft Brew – Allows the creation of top-tier brews that incorporate potion ingredients.

Drunken Warrior– Contracting the Drunk status provides slight boost to combat effectiveness. Pre-apocalypse, this was just expensive and came at the cost of annoying your friends with inane autochatter your character threw out. Post-apocalypse, it comes at the cost of being Drunk…

Oblivious – When Drunk, immune to psychological statuses such as Charm or Fear.

Sap — Auto attacks siphon MP from the targeted enemy. The amount of MP restored is proportional to the damage dealt.

The Fox Tale — In-game, granted the ability to use the /mimic <entity> command to take the shape of another humanoid or an object of similar size. It has yet to be discovered how to access /mimic, post-apocalypse.

This wicked club was a favorite weapon of the commanders of Cesaro’s Dead Legion. Cold to the touch—on both ends.

Mundane, padded adventurer’s pants.

I've always liked the premise that Log Horizon had going, so I want in as well.
Snapshot tapped his chin as a thought formed in his head. “So... hypothetically, if all these thefts were related and the last major port on the east coast that hadn’t been hit was, say, Miameigh… What day would I have to be there to witness such an act?”

“Hm… Beats me, but, these hypothetical thefts have all been about a week apart, on Tuesdays, and always on shipments bound for out of country. So, hypothetically, the theft could occur as early as tomorrow night,” Griddle said, without missing a beat. An awkward silence fell between the two pegasi.

“Oh, I see.”
“Yeah.”
“Yeah. Okay.”
“Alright. Uh. I have to get back to work, now.” With that, Griddle was off, back to the yard, a few loose feathers trailing in her wake.

“Alright,” Snapshot sighed, followed by a short chuckle, “We got a big, fat lead to go on, but I guess I’ve gotta pack my bags and fly south. I’d invite you along but,” he spread his wide wings to either side, “I’m not sure you could make it. Maybe there’re some ponies in town you could ask about all this?”
Sorry, I should've said two hours after Monday.

Just some fluff, positioning Adrian in the fight, and a bit of, "Hey, whatever happened to...?"
Adrian was apprehensive toward the idea of a full scale firefight inside the mines, thanks in large part to his previous experience with the aging dig site. He never knew Landren to be prone to much tectonic activity, but then again, Landren was probably three quarters sand. The numerous small craters that littered the field just outside of the gaping hole in the landscape did not inspire confidence. Maybe the two hostile GEARs that fled probably wouldn’t return—not with the Claw looming in the distance, but that didn’t rule out the possibility of a second artillery strike. The derelict mining rig that had been used to kick up a cloud of dust at the start of the fighting wasn’t necessarily harmless, but it was more flash than bang and didn’t cause much structural damage his limited geological knowledge could spot. It still demonstrated that there wasn’t much in the mine the enemy considered worth fighting particularly hard for. Artillery had just struck not too far away. What if they had a schematic of the upper mines’ layout? Would they adjust a second strike to bring down the ceiling or seal up the exits?

Even so, Adrian had orders to head inside. Even after all the shakedown exercises, he still didn’t have the Captain quite pinned down, but the old man had the clout to pull Adrian from his old, reasonably elite squad and place him in the Roughriders. He had to know what he was doing. He wouldn’t overlook any details, if they were important, would he?

With a deep breath, Adrian once more swapped his unwieldy rifle for his twenty millimeter pistol and adjusted his cameras’ lenses. The pistol was a dinky, little weapon in the hand of his GEAR, but against bandit-modified civilian equipment and squishy, arvaran bodies, there wasn’t a discernible difference beyond how many limbs went flying after a direct hit. He settled to bring up the rear and pick off stragglers and particularly sneaky assailants whenever the opportunity arose. CQC went beyond his area of expertise.
Dunno. 8D

Just kidding, it's new ground for me too—and it's probably spoiled a little by me being a participant. I would imagine the first step is to gather some leads. It's a world where people can do all sorts of magic, so finding out things like how the gear disappeared and when are big steps.

I probably won't be posting until tomorrow or late tonight. It's deadline season at college, so I'm a little held down by essays and the like.
Aye, Turkey Day. I'm in the middle of my last big essay for the semester, so I'll post after that. Should be on a Monday.
Griddle’s jaw contorted and her cheek puffed out as she looked once, twice over her shoulders and scanned the sky above her. “I didn’t say anything, but uh…” She leaned in close and spoke in a low voice, “Things have been going missing. Like, big things. Things that really shouldn’t just up and disappear, y’know? Like the other night, an industrial cement mixer, headed for Prance?” she stomped a hoof on the cobblestone, “Gone!”

“Sounds like filler,” Snapshot mumbled as he checked his watch, “There’s more to it, right?”

“I was getting to that!” Griddle hissed at him. “It’s not just here. A lot of heavy duty construction equipment’s been getting lifted from all over the coast: Filly, Manehattan, Trotston, Trampa Bay, New Horsey... This is the fifth major port t’ get hit and nobody has a clue what’s going on. And the big companies have been keeping this on the inside, somehow, so like I said: I didn’t say anything, got it?”
