Tower of God

2nd Floor: The Floor of Tests
Administration Office

“What test should we use this time?” Lero-Ro asked, looking at the expansive field below. “The Deathmatch one is quite effective.”

“No. The Circle should do just fine.” Evankhell muttered.

“As you wish.” Lero-Ro left to begin the preparations.

Testing Field

All four hundred regulars were scattered across the field, slightly disoriented by their sudden arrival. But the voice that seemed to come from everywhere captured their attention.

“Welcome all regulars to the Floor of Tests, Evankhell’s Floor. The first test here is simple. In the middle of the field, there is a small circle marked by a red line. The regulars who manage to stay inside the circle for five minutes pass the test and get taken to the next stage of testing. But only two hundred participants can pass the test. Use any means to stop others from passing. Good luck.”
As soon as the last two words were spoken, the regulars took action. The area in and around the circle quickly turned into a bloodbath, but waiting for the violence to pass was also not an option.

Tower of God

@Fukazza Thank you for joining us! Margaret is welcome. I will start as soon as I can, I just need to finish up.

Ascension (high casual)

Viola stayed in the middle of the group, trying to hide her cluelessness. Everyone else appeared to understand the situation, unperturbed by the more exciting events of the day. She kept a steady hand on Julie, ready for an attack at any moment. The whole situation screamed ‘danger’, or ‘drug induced hallucination’.

Drinking in the environment as they walked, Viola took note of every detail she could. There were two particular people in the group that were of interest. Sygma, the leader, who knew exactly what was going on. As least, that’s what she guessed since he was directly involved with the agency that sent them here in the first place. She made a mental note that when she got back, she would demand suitable compensation. There was nothing about magical dragons and portals that had to be opened with blood in the agreement. But that’s what I get for not reading the fine print, Viola chuckled to herself. Some of the others gave her a strange look, since this was not a laughing matter.

But refocusing, she turned her thoughts to the man in the back of the group. He was older, but seemed very capable. The others seemed to avoid him for some reason, but the reason was something Viola couldn’t guess at. He also seemed to be knee-deep in this agency nonsense, but his bearing made her suspect he was being as cautious as she was.

The walk seemed to take an eternity, but Viola estimated it was slightly less than a mile until the lights of a town appeared. Her legs were sore, but more from constant tension than actual tiredness. About five more minutes of walking, the group reached the outskirts of the town. Viola mustered up her courage, and asked the question that had been bugging her this whole time. “Excuse me, Sygma sir, what is going on and what are we going to do next?” She had wanted to add some expletives, but Viola had a gut feeling there would be a time for those later.

Ascension (high casual)

Quote: "People are the worst. I'm the best example."
Name: Viola Galloway
Age: 24
Species: Human
Blood%: N/A
Gender: Female
Sex Preference: Heterosexual
Height: 5'10"
Weight: 180
Physical appearance:
Apparel: She always wears a jacket of some sort, jeans, brown lace up boots, and usually keeps her hair up. Wardrobe wise, has a preference for dark blue, brown, and dark/muted colors.
Vehicle: N/A
Personality: Fairly cynical with a dry sense of humor, Viola is skeptical, and has absolutely no loyalty. She is calm and chooses her words carefully, and lies infrequently, but tells the truth just as often.
Occupation: Mercenary/Freelancer
Faction: N/A
Pet: N/A
Adv. App.: N/A
Exp: From her time with the group (A small local mafia) she learn how to use firearms, self-defense, basic use of knives, how to move without being seen, espionage, and other similar skills.
Spells:
- Time Step- A complicated spell that allows the user to change their opponents' time, slowing them down, making her appear faster.
- Light Step- Allows the user to walk on a thin sheet of air that acts as a solid surface, making no noise or create a small breeze to aid movement.
Abilities/Powers: N/A
Hindrances: Because of her backstory, she has an issue with people leaving her, so she always leaves first, before they can. Being human is also a huge problem, along with having little to no knowledge of what is going on, since the agency told her very little, but offered a lot.
Unknown Weaknesses: Being a Starseed, with the huge risk of falling into a coma, due to the vast number of lives she's had. Along with her skepticism, she can't take good intentions at face value. Everything is give and take for her.
Weapons: Julie- an AF2011A1 pistol that Viola always keeps in her jacket.
History: Viola was born into a well-to-do family, her father a prominent businessman, mother a model, two older brothers and one younger brother. When she was 9, her family disappeared during the night. She managed to pretend nothing was wrong for two weeks until the police showed up. They started asking questions and it became clear that her father was involved in illegal dealings, made many people angry, and ran, taking the family. Why they left her behind is unclear. As a consequence, Viola was kidnapped by one of these angry groups, hoping to get her father. Time passed with no attempts of rescue, legal or otherwise. In time, the group sent her to run errands, give messages, etc. She trained with them with firearms and basic self-defense. The jobs became more dangerous, and by the time she was 16, she was getting offers from other groups and organizations. At 18, she went freelance, taking jobs from anyone that ranged from deliveries (read: smuggling), to kidnappings, etc. Viola's goal is to find her family again and just ask them why they left her behind.
When she was 19, she met a 22 year old man at a Starbuck, and 1 year later they started a romantic relationship. He is uncomfortable with what she does, but as a upcoming politician, he doesn't have much room to talk. As of the rp, they are still steady going.
Trivia:
-She loves doing the crossword, and other word games, but hides it since it an 'old person hobby'
-Her boyfriend is the one who gave her Julie

Tower of God

Welcome to the really small group, Yohan! You are absolutely correct about upgrading equipment.
Unless you have some friends who would be interested in this, I believe we are about ready to start the IC posts.
(As the GM, I would be all the Rankers and Floor Guardians, creating the challenges.)

Tower of God

"What do you desire? Money and wealth? Glory? Honor and pride? Authority and power? Revenge? Or something that transcends all of them? Whatever you desire - is in here. Tower of God."

Everything is in the tower, and everyone is trying to climb up it for their own personal reasons. The only way to go up is to pass the tests made by the Rankers, people who have already reached the top.

All of the regulars have the same goal, and so some team up and attempt to climb the tower together.

No previous knowledge of Tower of God is required, but is highly recommended. CS must be posted in OOC first, to be approved. No irregulars are allowed, but members of the 10 families are, as long as they are not OP.

There are 5 main positions (classes):
-Fisherman- main offense, usually uses physical attacks to devastate their enemies.
-Scout- runs ahead to get info on the enemy, helps fishermen with offense.
-Spear Bearer- act like snipers, throwing spears, but can use their spears in close-combat.
-Light Bearer- store and give knowledge to their teammates using their Lighthouses.
-Wave Controller- direct battle, heal wounds, annihilate enemies, using their Shinsoo (energy)

Appearance: She's actually kind of short, 5' 5" but typically wears a brown cloak, and a belt to hold her knives.
