Jeez, you guys are quick lol.

Personally, I'll need to read the OOC before coming up with an idea since I'm not too familiar with the series. I'll likely be a human though, as that's how the majority of my characters are.

A Final Fantasy Roleplay Set In an Original World!

I'm interested in this and will keep an eye on this thread.

THE WAR FOR MYTHERIA - Isekai Adventure

Adam was momentarily distracted from his part in the battle by James' large beam of light and a huge splash of water. "Very impressive," he thought. He wanted to see how everyone else was doing as well, but he remembered that he still had work to do. Anything beyond seeing two ogres getting kneecapped and blinded respectively would have to wait. This renewed focus came at the right time too, as the man saw the large skeleton and three smaller ones start to charge right at him! The fear of death returned to him as Adam realized there were no more logs or plants nearby to manipulate now.

Whether out of insight or desperation, the man had an idea. "If the others have strong magic, maybe I do too." And as if he had done it a hundred times before, Adam summoned three large roots from the ground, each of them rising from below one of the three regular skeletons. The force of doing so shattered their bodies into pieces, instantly turning the odds of the battle in the man's favor. The ease of which this all happened amazed him, but there were more important things to think about right now.

With renewed confidence, a strategy instantly appeared in Adam's mind, and he executed it immediately. From where he was standing, he had the roots to his left and right try to encircle the armored skeleton like a crab's claw. At the same time, the man had the middle one attempt to slam the creature of bone to the ground. Hopefully one of the stems would impact the creature like the other skeletons had been. As this process happened, Adam stayed alert, wanting to be prepared for whatever happened next.

OOC: Damn, supposed to wait lol sorry Saiyan

@xenon

And with @Saiyan's post, balance was restored to the world :P

THE WAR FOR MYTHERIA - Isekai Adventure

@Zapdos fiiiine I'm just being impatient, I woke up at this ungodly hour a grump. 😡 it's 6.30am and I can't get back to sleep.

@Dark Cloud

Lol I understand, I can be impatient too (especially for RPs) - I want to post more as well :P

THE WAR FOR MYTHERIA - Isekai Adventure

Arrrrrgh post @Indrajita

@Dark Cloud

<Snipped quote by Dark Cloud>
They posted first right? maybe they are waiting for Saiyan to post first before they post again

@Teyao

@xenon also did say that it was one post per combat; @Indrajita could be thinking (as was I) that their post was in combat and so they shouldn't post again. The only one who needs to post, as far as I know, is @Saiyan

THE WAR FOR MYTHERIA - Isekai Adventure

@Teyao and @xenon I was going to have Adam strike the berserker ogre, but since Arthur did that I was concerned about overshadowing him and I didn't want him to get hit by a log somehow. So I thought "hey maybe Adam should wonder how this would work against a huge ogre" and had him attack the larger skeleton instead.

THE WAR FOR MYTHERIA - Isekai Adventure

@Zapdoslmfao true! The contrast is wild. I put her in the 'Don't think, feel' vibe so I could get straight into the fun. I like your approach though, drawing out Adam's realisation of his powers. Makes for compelling reading, like, you're rooting hard for him to figure things out so it's even cooler when he starts whipping ass with that log.

@Zool

Yup! I figured this guy who thought he was dead wasn't immediately going to be like "oh, I'm a Druid, let's kill these guys." He'll discover more of his abilities and become more powerful as the story goes on. And like you said, doing damage with the log :P

I'm excited to see the story develop and see how our characters, with their different approaches, interact with one another.

THE WAR FOR MYTHERIA - Isekai Adventure

@Zool Adam is just trying to help how he can while MacKensie just kills skeletons like she's done it already :P Such a contrast lol

THE WAR FOR MYTHERIA - Isekai Adventure

Adam listened as MacKensie introduced herself, then promptly proceeded to split off from the group. "Guess we're not sticking together," he thought, hoping the kind woman didn't do anything that would get herself killed. Before the man could think of or do anything else, two ogres and their skeletal sidekicks decided that the town would be their new piñata. And given that the gate had lasted all of two seconds against them, Adam wanted to give up right then and there despite what he had said earlier. "We are so dead. What can we do? I'm not some action movie hero, I'm just some guy from Up North."

But he remembered the big guy's shouting and MacKensie's determination, along with seeing Arthur charge at the ogre. If they were going to give it their all, so should he. Even if his face made it look like the man was going to run away any second now, he wanted to help somehow. "No, can't admit defeat yet. Think, think…oh!"

Inspiration struck as Adam saw a large log nearby. Maybe it was supposed to be for the wall that was basically destroyed now or maybe it was meant to be some kind of bench. It didn't really matter right now; what mattered was that it was a plant, or at least most of the remains of one. Like with the sunflowers, the man focused his effort on lifting the piece of wood, and it rose just like the smaller plant had. Good.

"I'll do my best." Adam spoke quietly, almost so much so that he couldn't be heard, but he meant it. The man moved the log over a group of skeletons, then slammed it down on them to crush them as a child might squish a bug. And like those unfortunate insects, these skeletons would not be moving again. A faint smile appeared on Adam's face as he made the log rise again; he was surprised that this had worked that well. Crashing the log on three or four more groups of them worked just as effectively. It was only after the fifth successful attempt that the group started to notice their comrades being turned to splintery piles of bones. Adam didn't want to waste the wood, but he wasn't sure it would hurt beings as large as ogres. Instead, he focused his energy on thrusting the tree towards the fancy-looking larger skeleton in half-plate spiked armor, hoping it would have some kind of impact.
