History

Tom was a very smart boy and an excellent student who had been very sucsesfull if not for the bullies, at first it was only teasing: jokes about his glasses now and then, but Tom's good grades and weak fysical condition made him very popular amongst bulies for targetting him. When it became worse, Tom fled to his computer games and pretended that nothing was wrong, he started studying visual technologies at age 17 after completing his Latin course, hoping to become a graphics designer for games. He heard about Hero's Squall about a month ago but has now finally purached it, as he enters the town of Camaraderie, he gets recruited for the fight against the hacker, thinking this is the normal way to get a mission in Hero's Squall he accepts it.

So begins...

Tom Random's Story

The old man noticed Tom and said, "Why hello there young lad!" he cried as he came out from behind his cart with a giant sheet and unfurled it. Many weapons clunked to the ground with a loud, metallic clunk. The old man shook his head and began to rearrange them before turning back to Tom.

"We've got old swords, new swords, broad swords, long swords, short shorts, fat swords, talking swords, and even broken swords in this shop. I don't have the best eyesight anymore, but I can see you, sir knight, are in need of a sword." the old man voiced as he smirked at Tom. Had the Administrator actually been here he would have been crying tears of pain. Who'd ever heard of a blind NPC who couldn't tell that this guy, Tom Random, was clearly a summoner and not some kind of sword wielder! It was terrible, but hopefully Tom would fall for the bait, maybe Kaliska too.

"I can tell you we even have magic swords..." the old man whispered as his smile grew bigger. Of course the game had magic swords! He had just said they had talking swords, boy, had the administrator really been here he would have soft reset this terribly quirky bug in a heart beat. Unfortunately, he had to deal with much bigger issues at the moment, and of course coming into a situation like this when he wasn't even logged onto the game would have been even worse. Think about all the instantaneous player challenges he would have gotten, tens if not thousands just because he had made the game.

"It costs ten gold." the old man said.

He picked it up by the rust colored blade and presented the sword to Tom and its stats popped up:

Old Sword:

Old Sword Skills:

Passive~ Increase attack by 5 and increase agility by 3.

Rusty- Active. When attacking this sword has a chance to poison the opponent based on their magic versus your own. If there's is lower then the chance of poisoning is greater Costs five magic points. Poisoning does 1 damage to a person that's been damaged at the start of their post.

Holding it there he waited for Tom to pay for it.

(You start off with however much you want. I'm not limiting the amount of coins you can have.)

The old man took the ten coins and handed over the sword. "Have a nice day..." he stated. He then looked over to Kaliska and wondered what she was doing. It was this girl that he wanted to make buy his wares. He did not care about cheap stuff like the rusty sword he had sold Tom.

As Tom entered the field a single goblin that was sitting around eating a huge beetle looked up. In the distance it could see something.

--

This will be our test fight or first test of the system:

First Check

Goblin's Perception: 20 vs. Tom Random's Perception: 6

Equation: 20-6= 14 Perception

Success goes to the Goblin it can clearly see Tom shall be described below.
--

The goblin with it's huge eyes could clearly see Tom Random from far off. It's mouth watered and the goblin went into a frenzy and charged at the unsuspecting Tom Random. Tom would not have much time to react this goblin was slobbering at the mouth and insane.

(Prepare yourself for battle! I need you to look into the rules rules and do an agility check. Take the Goblin's speed and compare it to your own and based on the rules follow through with an attack.)

The goblin cackled and stuck it's tongue out at Tom and his fire spirit before sending a fist towards Tom's fire spirit. Due to the fact it had twice as much agility as Tom's fire spirit it could attack twice and sent a second fist hurtling towards the Fire Spirit in a frenzied state. It did not want to attack Tom because he seemed to be able to take a hit.
--
Goblin's Agility: 20 vs. Tom's Fire Spirit's Agility: 5

Equation: 20-5= 15
--
The Goblin's Fists hurtled into the Tom's fire spirit's ethereal form, but thanks to it's defense it was one tough bugger.

Goblin's Attack: 20 vs. Fire Spirit's Defense: 10

20 attack - 10 defense= 10 Damage, Damage difference is ten so Critical Hit! plus ten damage!

Final Outcome: 20 damage
--
Based on the goblin's abilities Tom's fire spirit was in for a heap of pain as the two fists came in towards his spirit's particle form. The goblin had a happy look on it's face as it thought about the overall pain it would inflict on this trespasser before going back to eat it's bugs.

(You are doing an excellent job Nothing. I feel bad about your fire spirit right now. I hope it gets the ability to kick butt in good time! Because your fire spirit is slower and you are slower than the Goblin with your character Tom the next turn you will get to attack with Tom first and then your fire spirit since Tom is faster than his spirit. I will try to make sure you will get as many opportunities to attack as possible here I hope.)

(Hey, Nothing be sure to keep track of your characters' health. If my math is correct you should currently have ten for your fire spirit and twenty three for Tom.)

Thanks to the fact that Tom's old sword only provided him with seventeen attack power it was not strong enough to cut through the Goblin's thick skin, which provided it twenty defense. It almost did, but the goblin pulled it out to find a strange purple wound on it's green leathery body. The goblin poked it and realized that it stung, but quickly focused its mind back on Tom. It had not realized it at all, but it had been poisoned. What it did not realize though as well was that it was still Tom's fire spirit's turn to attack.

Current Situation:

Tom's Health: 23

Goblin's Health: 19

Tom's Fire Spirit's Health: 10

Tom's Fire Spirit may attack in the next post.

Galleta used here teleport skill to get to the pillaged farm lands, the Assassin in plain sight skill activating right away to hide any hint that the girl was there at all. Off in the distance she could see someone fighting a goblin, not seeming to be on the winning side of things. Quickly Galleta made her way over there and as she got about twenty feet away removed her Assassin in plain sight and spoke in an angelically sweet voice, "Might you need some help young summoner? I have a great deal of experience in this game and would be willing to offer my assistance if you wish. Maybe just a health or mana potion or two if nothing else?" By the sounds of it a 17 or 18 year old female spoke but the voice belonged to a character which looked to be about 25 or so it seemed. Upon examining Galleta's stats the one fighting the goblin would see stats for a level 20 assassin with really good equipment attached rather than what hidden truth.

(Is the fire tackle a physical attack? I would think it is. You do not say you add the normal attack with the skill's attack power so I'll just go with the skill's attack power. But perhaps I should add that in for the sake of things?)

The goblin did not see Tom's fire spirit charge at him. But it felt the flames lick against it's skin. Thanks to the tough leather hide it had versus the fire spirit's attack the goblin was able to block all the damage, but just barely, well it didn't actually block it per say just stood there menacingly waiting for its next chance to take a swipe at Tom before it felt the body of this strange creature ram it from behind.

--
Outcome:

Tom's Fire Spirit's Fire Tackle Attack: 16 damage vs. Goblin's Defense: 20

20 - 16 = 4

Thus the attack fails.
--
At this rate Tom was probably going to need help, although there was a small victory for Tom. The goblin's health suddenly dropped by one health point. It now had eighteen health.

The goblin growled at Tom and charged in a frenzied state intent on headbutting Tom for another five damage. Thanks to the game mechanics the hit was pretty much an ensured success. The goblin was smirking as it attempted this.

The Goblin's leather skin continued to protect it. Tom really got the cheap end of a bargain with the sword he had now. The Goblin got mad at being now slashed at twice and with a second purple mark on it's body felt more pain course through it's veins.
--
20-17= 3 (Tom's attack fails again, but assuredly poisons the goblin again.)

Goblin takes one damage from poisoning.

Goblin's Health: 17

Tom's Health: 18

Tom's Fire Spirit's Health: 10

Situation: Not Very Good
--
The Goblin retaliated and lashed out at Tom with it's frenzied state and claws. This was going to be a long and painful fight.

The goblin didn't see the fire ball coming so went it got hit it got burnt badly due to not having any magical power.

(Yeah, I think it brings him down to 7 if he skipped a turn and Tom went and it's his turn again. Maybe I should invent an effect stacking system so that all those )

Once again the sword didn't work against the goblin due to it's higher defense it was just too old of a blade to cut much of anything anymore. The goblin felt the sword stab his head and leave a third purple blotch on it. The goblin was once again poisoned, unfortunately the sword didn't pierce his cranium or skin. The flame's on the goblin's skin died down, but left him a crispy brown color. Before doing anything the goblin felt a wave of pain come over him and was dealt two damage, being penalized for having not fought like a good monster should. The goblin felt blade Tom was holding on his forehead stepped around to his side and in a frenzied state kicked at Tom.
--
Outcome:

Goblin's attack will be doing 5 damage to Tom.

Goblin's Health: 7

The Goblin did not see it coming but tried to turn around and stop it when it felt something hot slam into the back of its head. Thanks to the fact that no stats had changed it took seven damage, far too much for it to continue to stand, and fell over. The goblin had been defeated!

From the Goblin's pockets fell three bones and 300 gold coins.

Tom Random gains fifty experience points for himself and his summoned creature.

There are now 19 goblins left in "The Pillaged Farmlands", please take care of them.

"Well it seems you did okay against that one but here," Galleta handed a health potion to the summoner. "The name's Galleta by the way and that potion will give you sixty percent of your total health. I have some more so don't be shy about taking it. Also I have some mana potions if you need it." Galleta smiled, her eyes staying hidden from view thanks to the hood all this time. "If your doing that mission of killing twenty goblins either you have nineteen left or you have some potions of your own. Want some assistance killing the rest?"

If the summoner accepted Galleta's offer she would respond by activating Assassin in plain sight followed by a simple, "Lead the way young one." Then finally following the summoner to the next target. Galleta's voice would seem to come from nowhere as she spoke, almost making it seem like a ghost was helping the player out.

If denied then Galleta would still Activate Assassin in plain sight, but rather than following the summoner head off in her own direction without another word.

As Tom was walking around a little girl with blonde pigtails and a yellow dress came up to him. She gazed into his eyes with her sparkling blue eyes and said, "Hey, mister, you look like a traveler, are you one? If so then you must be really strong. I know someone who's strong too if you'll follow me I'll let you see them. They've got lots of cool stuff in their store windows!"

The little girl spun around in a circle then skipped off towards a store that had a sign over it in the shape of a book, "Hurry up, or you'll not be able to come to the "Magic Extraordinaire Store" with me!" she said as she looked back at Tom to see if he was coming, "I'm Becky by the way and I'm what you call an non-playable character." She was definitely one of the smarter non-playable characters in the game, but somehow one could almost question, why?

Markus handed Tom the watch and jumped from behind the counter. He took another cube out and threw it behind the counter. A robot as tall as Markus stood by and did nothing. Finally it spoke. "Welcome to Markus' store, he is not here at the moment but I will gladly assist you." The robot still had a few errors to work out but it was completely stable. "Ah I almost forgot!" He jumped over the counter once again and headed to the back room. When he came out he was wearing his battle armor. He walked around the counter and looked at Tom. "Well...where are we headed?"

Unfortunately, he missed Tom Random and Markus Rilest due to poor eyesight and a terrible heat stroke. The goblin went back to jingling a bag of coins that it had stolen from another player mere hours ago. This player was not of much importance, but the wickedness of the monsters surely was. They had the capability to decide whether to do things like steal, kidnap, or simply leave people where they lay.

The goblin continued to jingle it's bag of stolen coins as it flipped over a cow at its feet and tore into it with a clawed hand. It laughed to itself and did not see Markus, nor Tom approaching it. All would go well for Markus and Tom if they played their cards right and could sneak attack it.
