The Bard's Song (Started but Still Open!)
|
|
"Bard's Song" is the name of an MMORPG. This MMORPG hasn't been advertized at all, but it has many players worldwide. It's said to have lifelike graphics, intense gameplay, and it apparently sucks you in. Despite this, it's not on any forums, and no one can find out who made it. That's because it really does suck you in... literally! How can those ensnared break free of the game? Do they even want to? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RULES: -As listed in the rules section of the Gendou Forums. What was that called again...? -Nothing inappropriate, and no swearing on any kind of post. -You may have up to three characters. -If you have any questions, PM me with them. -You may kill NPCs freely, within your character's capabilities, but not player characters. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the character sheet: -Name: -Age: -Class: (feel free to make up your own) -Abilities: (No more than seven, but at least three) -Equipment: (No more than ten articles) -Bio: (Keep this short and sweet) Here's mine: -Name: Tohru Tokino -Age: 15 -Class: Night Mage -Abilities: --Flight by Broom: By channeling magical power into his broom, Tohru can fly. --Fireball: Tohru can shoot a blast of fire from his hand. --Shield: Tohru can use magical power to shield himself from spells. --Night Energy: At night, Tohru automatically heals his own wounds. --Ice Blast: Tohru can shoot a blast of ice from his hand. -Equipment: --Standard Gear: This includes seven nights' worth of firewood, seven days' worth of trail rations, basic clothing, and a backpack. --Cape: One black cape. --Broom: One crude straw broom. -Bio: He's an honor student in a Japanese high school. He picked up an MMORPG entitled "The Bard's Song" in a used game store out of idle curiosity, and hasn't played it yet, but he looks forward to doing so.
There are two things I can't stand in this world - people who are intolerant of other people's cultures, and the Dutch.

sounds good. i think ill join. Name: Demian Drakes (the rumors call him "the Demon") Age: 16 Class: Vigilanty/theif (he plays the vigilanty so he can steal stuff. it usually works.) Abilties: Forge: can create weapons, and armor out of ores and metals. Earth Clave: the ground comes up inb 5 rows of spikes that can impale an opponent, or knock up and back and hit them 5 times max. Illusion Wall: a defensive technique. it projecfts an image around him and his allies for a short time. in that time the enemny usuallty gets tired otf looking for him/them and gives up. (this ability uses up a major amount of magic.) Equipment: Big wallet: can carry twice the amount of money as most people. Big Quiver: can carry upto 100 arrows of any kind. Knight's Armor: give wearer +60 defence. long bow: shoots arrows (duh.) Bio: he picked up the game just over a year ago. 2 monts ago he finally got around to playing it, and was trapped since (duh). he decided if he was going to be trapped in the game, he would have be the best. he obtained abilities that would benefit anyone he came across, but mainly himself. (Forge, earth clave, and Illusion wall.) he heard of a way out of the game but everyone that searchedfor it vanished without a trace. but his plans are diffrent, all he wants to do is get his big score, and maybe get out (if its even possible to escape). oh ya and score big.

(Cc Drake, jezzicaz789) Neither do I, but I was planning on having my character be a loner at the start, Drake. Could you please edit your profile? You can join up afterwards in-game.

Oh, what the heck, I'm in. NAME: Lucian Lowell AGE: 19 GENDER: Male CLASS: Inquisitor (Paladin/Alchemist hybrid) APPEARANCE:  ABLITIES: > Castigate: Lucian channels holy energy through his body, striking an enemy with it. Hits up to four times. > Inquisitor's Chain: Lucian throws a chain of holy energy which coils around an enemy and immobilizes it while dealing damage. > Benediction: Lucian calls on the powers of his god, healing him and any of his allies in a small area around him. > Seal of Condemnation: Lucian puts a seal on an enemy, causing it to suffer constant damage and a reduction in strength and speed. > Flame Bottle: Lucian throws a bottle filled with sacred unguents and fuel, which explodes and lights up the ground with holy fire. EQUIPMENT: > Brazier of Holy Fire: A fiery sword anointed with holy oil. Not to be used in roasting marshmallows or cooking meat. > Light Armor: A suit of armor made of thin, flexible metal plates. > Censer: A small bowl filled with burning incense. Creates a cloud of thick smoke which seems to disorient most monsters and is anathema to undead and demons. > Crossbow: An everyday crossbow. > Backpack: A backpack for holding stuff. Made of 100% organic leather. > [Seven days' worth of] Trail Rations: A pack of dried fruits and jerky. Mmmm... chewy. > [2x] Fire Bottle: A bottle filled with sacred unguents and fuel. Makes a very satisfying explosion when thrown. > Bolt Holder: A small metal cylinder that holds bolts for a crossbow. Holds up to 100 bolts. [Current capacity: Silver Bolts- 100/100 bolts] BIO: Lucian was an everyday college student who accidentally got sucked into "The Bard's Song" when he tried to play it. For some reason, he decided to go with the Inquisitor class, since he believed it would help him survive the worst of the "Bard's Song". He also happens to be quite Genre Savvy, taking the whole "sucked into a game" thing with remarkable calmness. That doesn't mean he knows every facet of the game though: there are some things in the "Bard's Song" that he can't account for... NAME: James Mardale, AKA Gryphios Idraden AGE: 21 GENDER: Male CLASS: Fencer (lighter and faster version of a Knight) APPEARANCE:  SKILLS: > Iai Strike- A quick sword strike, seemingly coming from out of the blue. Actually due to quick sword-drawing. Disables the foe momentarily. > Pierce- A thrusting attack that breaks through an enemy's defenses. > Bladestorm- A series of rapid attacks using both blades. > Flash Steps- The Fencer uses his quickness to either evade most attacks with grace and ease, or get in close for the kill. EQUIPMENT: > Silver Note- An ornate rapier. [Right hand] > Defender Blade- A thin saber. [Left hand} > Extremity Guards- A pair of pearl-white gauntlets enchanted by runic magic. Amplify the raw strength of the wielder. > Standard Fencer Survival Kit- Contains several days' worth of rations, whetstones, medicines and 500 gold. Non-refundable and non-tradable. BIO: Another newcomer to the game, James began his journey after a long week of busting his brain over his thesis for third year college. He wanted to escape from the responsibilities for only a moment: unfortunately, he got more than he bargained for when he downloaded "The Bard's Song". Now, he is on a quest... to get back to his thesis. And probably pick up some treasure, slay some monsters, and have some fun along the way. (Yes, I'm planning to play as though "The Bard's Song" was an affectionate parody of the MMORPG genre.) 
Part of the New Breed of Gendou RPers: Haseo, Fenris, Roxas, Zero, Toyumi and Kyosuke.  |

Hmph! I think I'll join. sounds interesting. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name: Rion Hawkins Alias: Rion the Crimson Age: 24 Height: 6’0†Weight: 179 lbs. Origin: Kyoto, Japan Job: Assassin, Technomancer Appearance:  Weapon of Choice: His entire body, Twin kodachi, Desert Phoenix (Blood Red Desert Eagle ) x2, Ducati 999R Fighting Style: Muay Thai, Chinese Kenpo, Korean Tai Kwon Do, and Kurenai-jutsu Abilities: Can perform Hyperlinks (The ability to sync his mind with any electronic device and control it) Bio: As a Japanese orphan, he was adopted by an American family. At the age of 18, he left to travel all of eastern Asia learning how to fight just out of boredom. Mastering three of the best fighting and a twin sword style of his own creation in a little over six years, no one can defeat him. His power rivals that of some of the top ranked fighters in the world. Thanks to his skills as a Technomancer, he created a custom A.I. program named Vadra at the age of 10. Stored in a custom Micro SD card, he can used Vadra anywhere at any time for almost any purpose. Combined with his own unique ability to Sync with almost any electronically device, the two have helped to stop multiple problems in various countries all around the world. While attempting to Hyperlink with the MMORPG to "get a feel for it", he found himself completely in the game.

(Cc C.Knight) Sorry, no Kingdom Hearts parodies here. A native of the "Bard's Song" world is okay, so is someone who got sucked in. A dimensional traveler is not.

@ota-kun: i thought you would say that but i didnt want to say anything to Knight incase i was wrong.* @C.Knight: if you want you could probably be a Lock Smith (holds many keys and can lock/unlock any door), or a theif with lock picking abilities, that seem more .hack-ish. plus i've been thinking of making a partner for my charater that could pick locks, you could be him. *would that be ok otaku?

(Cc Drake) Yes, it would be okay. (Cc Drake) Quick question - is there really an MMORPG called "Bard's Song"? I just made it up, but you seem kind of pushy about classes, when I had intended the class system to be free-form.

(Cc CKnight) Thank you. (Cc CKnight) Don't mention family members by name unless you share a parent, because saying "niece" makes you sound middle-aged.

"this meadow is usually lively on wednsdays. we is everyone one?" he gets up and starts walking toward town. "HEEEEELP" he heard someone scream. he looks in the direction and notices a man is being chanced by a lv. 5 monster. "newbies. they always try to get themselves killed." Damian makes a fist and a circle appears infront of him. "EARTH CLAVE!" he shouts out and the gruound around him turns into spikes of earth. the guy dodges the attack and the monster gets speared through the head and disappates. he starts to walk away. "leave the game before its too late kid." he says as he continues back toward town. as he arives in town he over hers people taking about the players that keep disappearing. "poor fool" he saids to himself as he takes a seat omn a stool on the street. "the usually sir." a girl asked him. "ya, why not its the cloest thing to the real thing anyway." "comming right up!" she says in a cheerful tone and in a few seconds she sets a glass down infront of Damian. "4 gold sir." Damian takes 5 gold out and gives it to the girl. "keep the change." he finishes his drink and goes over to the event board. "missing, missing, missing, no events." he turns too leave the message board.

(Sounds fun, although somehow resembles dothack. Anyway, i'll add two players, one is something like a native and another is a player. Though tell me if this character is okay, he won't be my main, some sort of wanderer-rumor character, that rarely appears or interacts with others. Also i haven't decided how i'm going to use him yet. I'll add main one later) Name: Ryuu Age: 22(?) Class: Dark Paladin Abilities: -Dark Devour: Able to produce a dark slime-like substance of his body to devour any defeated creature(including players). Devouring has many effects and Ryuu gets to decide on which one to apply. This can be used in order to harm the devoured creature, but can also be used for other purposes, not all of which are harmful. -Darkness Collection: Ryuu can absorb darkness from devoured creatures, adding it to himself. However, every time he does that, he needs to tolerate mental and physical pain, in other words, conquer the darkness in himself. -Dark Release: He can release his collected darkness in various forms. For example, create a whip of darkness, form a giant snake-alike creature, etc. However, every time he uses it he also needs to tolerate mental and physical pain. Equipment: Katana Bio: A creature, some sort of AI, living in the game. There is also a probability that he is a virus someone released. It is unknown who he is modelled after, but he acts as some wandering hero, despite evil look and attitude. |

-small village in forest- Rion looks around the village he arrived in. "Hey Vadra, this place kinda looks like a common place from monster attacks." Just as he finish speaking, three lv.5 beasts appear in the village. "This should be fun." Rion draws his short swords and prepare to fight.

Her real name is unknown, but in Bard's song she named herself after legendary valkyrie Brunhilda, by shortening that name.
