Ultionem Crystallis - Sign-Ups and OOC

[Cid]

Long, long ago, the entire world was at war with a powerful sorcerer called Apollyon. By gaining control over the four crystals of light, he channeled the void into his destructive magic and plunged the entire planet into utter ruin, bringing the entirety of mankind to it’s knees with his infernal army. All hope was lost as he laid claim to the world and sat upon his throne in the depths of his hellish kingdom. However, legends of old came to life out of the east. The Four Warriors of Light arose and together they roused an army and laid waste to Apollyon's forces. In the end they battled fiercely with Apollyon himself, but their courage and strength ultimately failed them. Defeated and on the verge of death a mysterious form presented itself to each of the Warriros, bringing with it a dark crystal. The Four Warriors, with no other options, took the Dark Crystals into themselves and were imbued with unimaginable power. Risen with renewed energy, they attacked the Sorcerer again and after many hours the Warriors of Light gained the upper hand, but still they lacked the strength to end his life. With all options expended and their strength quickly depleting they summoned the remainder of their strength and used their very souls to seal Apollyon and his army for good...

Though the threat was destroyed, all was not well in the world. The Warrior's souls were trapped forever halting the reincarnation process. No longer would the Warriors of Light rise to combat the darkness in the world. Decade after decade their legend was passed down to countless generations culminating every century on the centennial anniversary of their sacrifice, the entire world comes together and for one night celebrates and retells legends of old during the Crystal Requiem. They pray that the curse be broken and the reincarnation cycle renewed. They pray that they would never need the Warriors again.

~~~

Twenty-two hundred years have passed and the world has all but forgotten the terrible tragedies of the past. What once was a holy gathering to pray for the souls of humanity's saviors has been defiled and turned into a worldwide carouse. Alcohol and whores on every corner of every city. Little does the population of Ivalice suspect, a new horror rises and a new chapter of darkness is being written. Rumors are spread among the people that the nations surrounding Acerrae Vatriae have fallen and that their nation will be next. Governments of the world have said otherwise, and for most all is well in the world. But an ominous cloud hangs over Acerrae Vatriae, today is the Crystal Requiem and few have made the journey from their homelands to the venerable capitol city of the world, Puerto de Oro...

^ Job Classes! Unless special circumstances call for it... I would prefer only one character per class! But if you absolutely do not want a character other than a specific class and it's taken, I can probably make an exception. Just want a little diversity, is all. Unique abilities will usually be activated in battle, they're not to be confused with limit breaks, desperation attacks, or anything similar. These abilities can be activated at any point in any fight. Though do try not to use them constantly, because that'd be boring and unrealistic.

If the class is in RED that means someone else already has taken that Job.

Magic in Ultionem Crystallis can be used by only a chosen few. Spells are stored away in ancient scrolls and usually kept hidden in libraries, accessible only by scholars of the highest social standings. However, every now and again explorers come across them, hidden away in caves or ruins. These spells are cast by a user via an incantation. These chants are written in an extinct language, and thus tend to be difficult to decipher and pronounce. However, when done correctly the user's soul is linked to the very forces of nature and enable the user to cast powerful magic.

Below are a list of spells, a description of what the spell does, and the incantation required to cast it.

Black Magic
Black magic is the study of the dark arts. Spells from this class always focus on harming an enemy. From igniting the target in the fires of hell to inflicting deadly poisons, an enemy wielding black magic is not an enemy to take likely.

Fire (Fire Element)
Incantations and effect:
Low - "Aduro!" - Shoots a single fireball at the target.

Ice (Ice Element)
Incantations and effect:
Low - "Duratus!" - Pelts the enemy with dozens of small (think golf ball) hailstones.

Bolt (Lightning Element)
Incantations and effect:
Low - "Fulmen!" - A strong static discharge from the user paralyzes the target for a few seconds and inflicts severe burns to the area hit.

Water (Water Element)
Incantations and effect:
Low - "Immergo!" - A ball of water is launched at the enemy at a high speed, impacting hard then bursting and dowsing them in water.

Aero (Wind Element)
Incantations and effect:
Low - "Ventus!" - A strong gust of blows towards the target, capable of easily toppling any creature up to the size of a large bear. (Think EF0 wind speeds)

Poison(Status Inducing)
Incantations and effect:
Low - "Inficio!" - Propels a wispy cloud of gas at the target, inflicting a temporary neurotoxin. Movement is slowed as the toxin attacks the nerves, causing sharp pains in the limbs.

Darkness(Status Inducing)
Incantations and effect:
Low - "Caeco!" - A dark cloud shoots towards the target, covering them entirely. The particles in the cloud stick to the target's eyes until their own tears wash it away, while inflicted their eyes burn and their vision becomes extremely blurry.

Curse(Status Inducing)
Incantations and effect:
Low - "Inprecor!" - A dark curse attacks the target for 30 seconds, affecting their physical abilities slightly, becoming weaker and more susceptible to damage.




White Magic
White magic is the study of the holy arts, an exact opposite to black magic. Spells from this class primarily focus on supporting allies through protection, status buffs, and healing spells. However, there are a few known spells that damage or otherwise negatively affect the target.

Cure(Regenerative)
Incantations and effect:
Low - "Recreo!" - The target feels slightly refreshed as they would after taking a short rest. Minor cuts and wounds are also magically closed.

Protect(Protective)
Incantations and effect:
Low - "Contego!" - A translucent wall appears before the target, capable of taking two or three hits before shattering. Mystical properties of the spell allows anything to pass through from the inside, allowing the target to continue attacking.

Haste(Status Inducing)
Incantations and effect:
Low - "Celero!" - The target becomes slightly faster for one minute, being able to move about 1.5 times the speed they normally do, they also experience time slower while under the effect, making their reactions much better.

Dia(Holy Element)
Incantations and effect:
Low - "Inputresco!" - A holy attack that only affects the undead, greatly speeds up the degeneration process of the target's body, causing it's body to weaken considerably.




Summoning
Summoning magic is the art of calling beasts from another dimension to fight by your side. Summoned creatures appear from portals and stay until the battle is finished. Though most are relatively weak, they tend to be fairly capable in one way or another. Some summons are offensive while others are defensive. Incantations, even for low level creatures, tend to be fairly complex, lacking any distinction for high and low level spells. Instead, the complexity of the incantation determines the strength of the summon.

Wyvern
Incantation: "Draco in adjutorium meum intende quaeso proelio!"
Effect: Calls forth a small dragon to fight for the caster. Usually being no more than two feet tall on all fours and four feet long from snout to tail. These guys still pack quite a punch, being able to breathe both ice and fire equivalent to low level black magic as well as possessing razor sharp teeth and claws.

Moogle
Incantation: "Ut mihi praeberetis auxilium Moogle invocabo in proelio!"
Effect: Summons a friendly Moogle to assist in battle. These creatures have no offensive abilities but are very capable of defensive ones. They're able to cast Protect and Cure spells in rapid succession.

Cactuar
Incantation: "Cactuar peto inferre terrorem corda inimicis meis!"
Effect: This spell summons a Cactuar to attack your enemies. These creatures move extremely fast, making them a tough enemy to even hit and when they are damaged, they tank it very well. Their plant like bodies soak up the damage, allowing them to take massive amounts of physical attacks before going down. Offensively, they're hellions, capable of launching hundreds of needles from their body at an enemy. Most of the time, not deadly, but extremely unpleasant.

Ultros
Incantation: "Knave silentium! Regium polypus coram te! Ignobilis populus amo vos nunquam vincere!"
Effect: Calls forth a writhing mass of purple tentacles with many fangs, a species tentatively called Ultros after their progenitor. They are quite large and somewhat intelligent, fully capable of human speech and making terrible jokes. They attack with their tentacles and by throwing ink, which can blind a target.

^ List of available magic so far, more will be unlocked and rewarded to characters as the RP progresses. Starting out, if your character uses magic, you can choose two spells that fit the class! (Summoners can only use Summons, Black Mages only black magic, White Mages only white magic, and Red Mages can use both black and white magics)

This is the world of Ivalice.

Acerrae Vatriae
The largest nation in the world, both by landmass and by population. Thanks to it's perfect geographic location, the climate across most of the continent is warm and hospitable with people living in towns and cities spread across the entire landmass. It is also host to the Wind Crystal, which Crystallists (devout worshipers of the Crystals) attribute to the country's good weather. Thanks to these things, Acerrae Vatriae is commonly called the Nation of Ivalice and it's King the benevolent leader of the World.

1. Puerto de Oro
The Port of Gold, Puerto de Oro is the capitol city of Acerrae Vatriae. The city is vast, covering an area of just under 250 square miles and having a population of just over 15000. Puerto de Oro is the host of the Crystal Requiem, the centennial gathering from which once every 100 years, tens of thousands of people from all over Ivalice gather in this city to celebrate and pray for the return of the Warriors of Light and to wish good tidings to their fellow man and the world.

Please be creative with your profile!!! Unless you're an artist and can draw your character, this will be the method by which other RPers describe your character.

->Open Spoiler Tag<-

• Stick to the basic rules of Take Five
  • Watch your language... Try not to go overboard with the cursing and foul language.
  • No Racism, even within an in character post.
  • No spamming, or in this case, no posting back to back with yourself
  • Sexual encounters don't occur in Final Fantasy and anything too extreme is against the lounge's rules, so keep it at the puppy love stage.
• No autoing of any kind. You're not to say what does and does not happen to another player's character.
• ABSOLUTELY NO GODMODDING! This creates an annoying and/or unpleasant environment for the other RPers involved.
• No Metagaming. Your character is not you and thusly does not have the same knowledge you have about current events and characters.
• No Powergaming. You control your character(s) only. Not others.
• No Powermodding. Use some realism here. If you're a normal human you're not dodging a bullet at point blank range.
• Try to keep as little OOC talk out of the main thread as possible. This makes it less confusing for everyone else.

Tips for creating your post


A lot of people have some trouble creating their posts, they can make several amateur mistakes which make their posts hard to read or even boring. So here are a few tips you can keep in mind.

• The length of your post is very important, a common misconception is that extremely long posts make for better role playing. This isn't entirely true, anything over two paragraphs can become tedious to read. So, keep your posts to a paragraph or two and you'll be fine. Please do have at least one paragraph per post. One or two sentences doesn't leave other posters much to work with in response to you.
• Working with the above fact are details in your posts. Yes, details are important, it helps other RPers visualize what is happening. The trick is knowing what details are important. Below is a short example;
  • Derek slowly moved toward the bright red wood bench, it was a dark and rainy day. Absolutely miserable by anyone's standards. The wind howled and whipped through his soft brown hair.
  In this example, there are a few details that could be left out. The color and material the bench is made of isn't important, you're focusing on Derek himself, not the surroundings and the fact his hair is soft and brown isn't too important either because you're not focusing on his appearance, but rather the mood. The latter part, however could be different, pending on whether or not this is the character's first time being mentioned.
• The wording in your post is also important, having a large vocabulary can certainly spice it up and show off your IQ, but using a lot of long and complicated words that others don't understand can have negative effects on your post.

Magic:The Hellfish does not use magic, but has showcased natural resistance to many forms of it. Hit him with an ice spell and you may be greeted with a shout of "OYE! THAT'S COLD!" before getting lifted, chucked, and slammed into a wall.

Weapons: The Hellfish carries a large anchor. He may swing if from its chain like a flail, or simply carry it as a bludgeoning club. He wears heavy metal gloves with bladed protrusions that allow him to punch and stab at the same time. He has guns, but they're more for show than anything else. He's a terrible shot, and prefers to get up close and dirty in a fight.
Additional Info: He commands The Flying Hellfish and its scoundrel crew, and is not on good terms with the law. But robbing a few merchants blind doesn't make him evil, right? Behind that gruff exterior and ugly mug is an ally of unwavering loyalty...if you can earn his respect...

(Earning his respect usually entails doing something very brave or very stupid.)

Basics:
Name: Ravaayth
Job Class: White Mage (Shaman)
Sex: Female
Age: 21
Height: 5’6”
Weight: 137 lbs

Appearance:
Hair Style and Color: Black and long, arranged simply in a waterfall braid.
Eye Color: Indigo
Distinguishing Marks: No evident characteristics, but her right eye sometimes appears crimson in dim lighting.
Miscellaneous: Fit and energetic, but is sometimes debilitated due to what she tells her friends and acquaintances is an incurable chronic illness.
Attire:

Head: A simple thick white hood of linen, lined underneath with cushioned light chain mail. She prefers to forego the hood and wear her hair long.
Upper: Flowing but appropriately-tailored upper robes. The robes are white and lined with red triangles; uniquely, though, the triangle flares each are "filled" with a forest green ouroboros. This garment serves as light armor and can deflect a few weaker projectiles (such as nonmagical arrows) or turn a sword once (if swung by someone no stronger than an adult man accustomed to a life of labor) in a given region before replacement or repair is necessary.
Lower: Lower robes of the same type, style, and cut; similarly armored.
Accessories: Lapis lazuli earrings, which are hidden in a pouch and rarely worn; a furnished bronze necklace of elegant design worn over her outer garments.

Equipment:
Weapons:

* Quarterstaff
* Small Mace (hidden within the folds of her robe)

Spells:

* Cure | Low Level | “Recreo!” | The target feels slightly refreshed as they would after taking a short rest. Minor cuts and wounds are also magically closed.
* Protect | Low Level | “Contego!” | A translucent wall appears before the target, capable of taking two or three hits before shattering. Mystical properties of the spell allows anything to pass through from the inside, allowing the target to continue attacking.
* Haste | Low Level | "Celero!" | The target becomes slightly faster for one minute, being able to move about 1.5 times the speed they normally do, they also experience time slower while under the effect, making their reactions much better.
* Dia | Low Level | "Inputresco!" | A holy attack that only affects the undead, greatly speeds up the degeneration process of the target's body, causing it's body to weaken considerably.

Character Synopsis / Additional Information:
Always ready with a gentle smile and healing touch, Ravaayth became a white mage for the purposes of aiding others -- following in the steps of her grandparents. Though she can more often than not hold her own in physical combat due to a period of martial arts training, she tends to avoid altercations where possible because of her beliefs and frail constitution; however, she would never hesitate to step in to help someone in need. Quiet but very perceptive, her youth symbolizes her dedication to her work as a healer.

Name: Charlie Decker
Age: 25
Sex: Male
Height: 6'4"
Weight: 77kg

Appearance: Tall, very well toned, lean build
Hair: Brown
Eye Color: An oddly tinged yellow
Distinguishing Marks: Covered in large, unsightly scarring
Miscellaneous:
Attire:

• Head: An odd, monkey like mask
• Upper: Tends to wear a jacket/coat and little else, baring a cheap backpack to store his various training manuals and claws
• Lower: Baggy, cheap pants
• Weapon: Decker occasionally makes use of two simple, highly durable gauntlets with claw like extensions at the finger tips if the situation calls for it, but generally just sticks to bare fist brawling.
• Accessories: An odd pendant that marks his allegiance to a Monastery, a small bag of coin

Miscellaneous:
Spells/techniques: Has a unique combat style (Set up by a slouched, monkey like stance) that fixates on having almost no guard, instead relying on his almost unnatural flexibility and dodging skills to avoid attacks, whilst delivering his own at the same time. If forced to assume a guard to defend against an attack it'll naturally be very weak or full of holes. Decker's high stamina and natural talents allows him to maintain this for a while.
Job Class: Brawler
Character Synopsis:
Uniquely for his class, Decker never actually received any formal training. His more refined techniques come from many hours of study and practise from teachings found in books he has either stolen or collected over a period of time; the failings of which are shown by the vast collection of unsightly scarring he has gathered across his form. He was, by his own admission, formally given the status of one recently, though the credibility of such a claim is debatable. He appears to be roaming the land in an attempt to be humbled, as he was (again, by his own admission) instructed, though his incredible arrogance and general joy of fighting tends to prove problematic to such attempts.

May I ask how faithful we have to be to the established lore as far as the story? I'd love accuracy and at least reasonable adherence, but it might be somewhat limiting -- and, admittedly, I've forgotten a lot and couldn't in good conscience participate if we're attempting for significant legitimacy here.

This RP is only loosely based upon the older Final Fantasy games. I assure you, all lore the RPers will need to know will be presented in-RP. I'm creating my own... everything... from scratch here.

Excellent -- I'd love to join, then. I look forward to seeing what you do with this~

...May I participate? Or am I precluded from such because of my shitposting (if you'd please excuse the language)?

[Omniwhatever]

Looks interesting, I might sign up. Minor question or two though.

Whats the overall tech level like? You mentioned muskets and stuff. Just curious as I'd like to know when describing the background of my guy and making descriptions of the local area.

Lastly, and I hate to get to power levels, whats our general ability range? From the line about not dodging bullets, I'm guessing we're not gonna be doing ridiculous stuff like FFVII top-tiers from the very start of the RP. Would Fire Emblem characters be a decent benchmark for Beginning of saga at least? I can provide some videos if you're not familiar with them.

Didn't see your post, Omni.

For tech level, think 1700s or so. But it's also Final Fantasy, so it's not really that restrictive. I mean, no computers, modern assault rifles, cell phones, or things like that, obviously. But you don't have to stick to period confines, it's fantasy, after all. We might have muskets, but the world will also have airships and, maybe something like steam powered cars for the extremely wealthy. *shrugs*

As for power level, think street level starting out. Obviously the more physical characters like The Paladin, Warrior, Brawler, and Berserker classes would start out more physically strong than any normal person. And, for the Berserker specifically, I wouldn't be upset if he could like, pick up and throw a fully grown horse or something right off the bat. Just use your imagination. Our characters >will< power up through the RP via story enhancements, though. (I mean, it's FF, it wouldn't be right otherwise)

[Omniwhatever]

Alright! Cool stuff, I'm interested. I'll probably look into putting a character profile up tomorrow then. I remember the brief stint that was the FFVII based RP on MvC, writing was good there, so I look forward to seeing what kind of stuff you come up with.

That is such a fantastic name

Forgot to mention... I'd prefer only one character per class, unless we get an abundance of sign-ups or something.

So try to get your profiles in as early as possible. I'll probably start striking through job classes as they're taken. My character is a ranger, but since I'm also the GM, if someone else wants to be a ranger that's ok, I can change my character to any other job class very easily. So first come first serve, more or less.
