Okay, it's about time I post an update.
Bad news is, I can't find a good mapmaking software that doesn't cost money. And I'm not paying for any software that I'm only ever going to use once in my life. So this is probably going to end up being a pen-and-paper RP. Sorry. Don't think that means I won't take the strategy elements out of it though--I'll try my best to describe the maps in words as much as possible and I'll provide stats for the enemies you face. They'll likely be spoilertagged so as to not take up too much space on the page.
With that said, I think I'll officially open the RP this Friday afternoon, when Christmas vacation starts for me. There, you can choose your starting classes, create your stat growths, write your bios, and all that. RavenKingSage, I'd like to ask that you provide an overview that I can put at the OP for when I open the thread.

Should we wait for Mermaid Amy to come in? We do need more females after all, and I see from V3 (whenisitgonnagobackupkthx) that she's interested.
EDIT: So when you say "overview," do you mean a plot synopsis from beginning to end of part 1? Or just background information and how the story starts? I'm currently working on the progression of part 1.

Background info. Just something that people can go off of so they can make their bios.

So, that overview you wanted. Here you go!
Part 1 chronicles the war between the Ragna and Tenchi empires, eternal rivals on the continent of Micalis. Tenchi's emperor Jin, in a bid to fully conquer Ragna once and for all, invades. Emperor Kallian of Ragna responds by calling three main forces to action. One is led by Levias, Kallian's future successor. The second is led by Mage General Hans, the empire's most experienced military leader and strategist. The third is led by Levias's younger brother, (Lord). That's the team we'll be playing for here. They are ordered to defend Ragna with everything they've got.
I have an idea of how the plot progresses now, so I'll probably PM you later to let you know how that goes. Probably the most important things you need to know are who dies in part 1 and when certain characters come into play. Several of the characters here will play a larger role in part 2.
I'm still unsure if I'll have a participating unit, since I don't know how we'll do this. If my character is having dialogue with someone else's, do I just say something and wait for that person to be online?

Post by Malcolm Belmont on Dec 20, 2013 10:43:24 GMT -8
Okay..so i am allowed to post my bio on my charcter..sweet. Also you can criticize my concept in any way you see fit.. Name: Malcolm Age: 25 Date Born: 6th July Class: Thief Family: Kokone ( Sister) The Emperor of the Tenchi Empire ( Father) Bio: The Former Prince of the Tenchi Empire. At first he felt the war against Ragna was completely necessary, until more and more blood shead started to happen. Malcolm frequently argued with the Emperor over why there was any need to fight but the Emperor brushed him off. Deciding that this war was unnecessary, he leaves The Emperor and Kokone in order to become someone different and join the other side against the Tenchi Empire. He later meets up with the main charcter and asks to join him in order to take the Tenchi Empire. It is slowly revealed that he is the prince, he explains to the main charcter that he wanted to stop the war in his own way. Later on in the game he confronts Kokone about the Tenchi Empire. Appearance: After he begins his new life. He starts to wear a typical thief outfit.He wears a bandanna and a cloak that might have secret powers. He also has two small daggers which is uses for combat. He has a poach in his right leg which holds different gear he can use to steal. Like the Tenchi Empire they have manly Blue eyes and blond hair. Personality: Malcolm is very serious but knows when to have fun. Malcolm is always serious on the battle, completely focused on his goal but while he is chatting to other people he is much more open and friendly. He is also a bit of a trickster trying to pull off tricks. While he may be a Thief, he also has a heart of gold but has a quick temper if you press his wrong buttons. While he is not a Dragon Rider, he is assassinated by Dragons and used to read about them when he was younger. Stats: ( When you get him) HP: 25 Str: 7 Mag: 0 Skl: 14 Spd: 16 Lck: 5 Def: 4 Res: 3 Move:5 Stat Growth: HP: 80% STR:65% MAG:15% SKL:75% SPED: 65% LUK:40% DEF:35% RES:15% More Info: Skill: Locktouch Weapon: Sword - C Starting Weapon: Iron Sword

Levias is the older brother of the main character, not Hans. Hans is unrelated. Still thinking about my unit was gonna call Lord but Demented beat me to it I'm thinking either a healer, beast, or Wyvern Rider. As for my name, it will either be Lucas or Phoenix.

Name: Hugo Class: Beast Skill: Movement +1 Gender: Male Birthday: July, 19th Bio: Hugo resides in a very peaceful island in the middle of a large lake surrounded by Fog. This island contains a spring surround by shoots of bamboo and Cherry Blossoms, not to mention a little hut where he resides, along with his animal helpers, and it's said the spring can heal all wounds, and all illnesses. Hugo normally takes the shape of a Panda Bear, with the exception of when he is angry or in the midst of combat, the likes of which nobody has ever lived through to tell the tale of what it looked like, and those that did said that it was so terrifying they couldn't put it into words. At the end of each month, Hugo goes through the nearby city at night, and brings food and water and medicine to the poor and homeless. Out of all, he has taken a liking to a particular homeless one. Mina Oskavich, a girl no older than 7 when Hugo saw her, not only was she starving and cold, she was ill and weak, and Hugo could not let the poor girl suffer, so he took her back to his abode. Mina now lives on the island (Known by men as Fogged Peace Island)and helps Hugo with his heavenly deeds at the end of every month. Hugo can speak the tongue of men, but prefers the tongue of animals, to which he has taught Mina to speak. He very rarely cares for wars or other trifles of men, so he will take quite a deal of convincing to get him to join your party! Family: Mina refers to Hugo as her "Father" and it can be said that Hugo thinks of Mina as his daughter. Appearence: Looks like a Panda Bear when calm, but again, nobody can tell you what his angered state looks like. Personality: Hugo is normally calm and collected, and a very kind-hearted soul at that. He doesn't like being cryptic or coy, and you will normally get a straight answer out of him when you approach him with a question. While Hugo is nice to the poor, he very rarely takes visitors when they come to Foggy Peace Island. Weapon: (Are you going to make a weapon type for beasts?) Starting Weapon: Stats: (Level 6) HP: 28 STR: 9 MAG:7 SKL: 8 SPD: 7 LUK: 6 DEF: 9 RES: 6 (Adjust if you like) Stat Growths: HP:50% STR: 70% MAG:15% DEF: 70% LUK: 20% SPEED: 50% SKL: 15% RES: 10%

So, my unit. I was going to go for the position of Lord (an anima magic user who got staves and a horse upon promotion), but if I can't do that, then I can go with this:
Name: Phoenix
Class: Mercenary
Weapon: Sword - C
Skill: Armsthrift
Birthday: June 26
Bio: Phoenix is a fighter in the service of the Ragna empire, and living proof that the empire values strength and ability in its military, no matter where it comes from. He grew up poor and without parents, turning to a criminal life to keep himself fed. His crimes landed him in prison multiple times, but he would always escape. He eventually fell into a band of skilled assassins who abandoned him in a getaway (this band of assassins will have a role in the story btw). He faced execution, but emperor Kallian recognized his skill. "Criminal you may be, but someone of your ability could have use in our military. Fight for Ragna, and I will spare you execution. There will no longer be a need to steal." Ever since then, Phoenix has reformed and served Ragna faithfully.
Personality: Ever since he reformed, Phoenix has been a moral man who uses his ability not just to serve his emperor, but to stand up for the defenseless (he's named after Phoenix Wright after all). He is merciful and surprisingly soft underneath his hardened exterior. Though he still retains his blunt manner of speech, a temper, and a bit of an ego, he's charismatic and will get along with just about anybody.
Starting stats (Lv. 2):
HP - 22 Strength - 6 Magic - 0 Skill - 7 Speed - 7 Luck - 5 Defense - 4 Resistance - 1
(Adjust if you like.)
Growth rates:
HP - 70% Strength - 50% Magic - 0% Skill - 45% Speed - 55% Luck - 45% Defense - 20% Resistance - 15%
