Take What You Can Get RPG Story - Writers Forum

Ok I have a cool idea for another RPG story.

Here are the rules for the beginning:

1. First person makes up a character (not their own character.)
2. Second person now takes on the role of that character and elaborates (don't change, just go more in depth) on the characters personality, skills, etc. THEN, they describe how their character meets the next, and they describe the next character.
3. Third person (might be the first person) Takes on the role of that character, and so on, until there are about 8-10 characters.
4. Don't recycle characters from the other RPG.
5. If the person before you makes your character into say (for example) a big, warrior, guy, and you don't want that character, DON'T JOIN. You will have to keep the character within the limits that the person who CREATED the character set. It's more challenging in the writing aspect that way, and I think it will become fun, as well.

Mytz is a male gnome sorcerer. He specializes in illusion magic and fire elemental spells.

Mytz wanders alone. He doesn't trust people and generally he finds that they don't trust him. He is a hard-shelled character, often seeming rude and abrupt but has a good soul deep down. He can usually get out of trouble with his illusions and sharp tongue and more often than not, people fear him and let him pass without incident.

He met Danni when he found the boy unconcious in the street. Tempted to leave him there, he instead took the boy to his temporary accomodation and ensured he was ok.

Danni is a street urchin. He is an extremely skilled thief and actor. (as in, pretending he's innocent, not as in acting in plays or theatre)

Danni, like all the orphans of the city, became a street urchin. His parents home was siezed, and he was left to fend for himself. Quickly his rank, if you could call it that, began to wise within the hierarchy of the street urchin society. His tongue and feet are as fast as his wit, which he developed on the streets to avoid conflict.

Rammel is a hardened warrior. His greatsword and armour make him slow to move, but once he does, you'll know about it. His faces shows the markings of many battles.

Rammel catches Danni as he tries to steal from him. They both have a strong dislike of the other.
-Fantasy, Hope I did it write

Yep, so far, both of you did it right. I'm waiting for a character that's not a warrior, basically, so I'll join after the next person probably.

Rammel has always held the belief that anyone can make their way, even from the streets, and stay honest while doing so. He holds honor in the highest esteem. He has often been hired by jewel merchants and others with small, valuable cargo because of his well-known reputation for honesty and honor. However, he has fought in the wars lately, and has had to become more ruthless to survive. That he has survived as long as he has is a mute testament to his indomitable will, strength, and endurance.

Danni was an annoyance. The boy was impudent and had not a bit of honor from Rammel's point of view. However, he decided to let the boy go for now...at least until he can find a monk to straighten the boy out.

He travels away into the mountains, following an old legend of a near mythical temple and the powerful priests who live there. When he arrives, he is surprised to find that they were not the peaceful, quiet monks he had thought to find. Instead they practiced the ancient arts of hand to hand combat. Even he, in all his armour and experience, would have a great deal of trouble in fighting one of these monks.

Vaielom was the monk who agreed to travel with him to the outside world; a powerful, swift, young Adept who had surpassed even his teachers in the arts of the hand. Vaielom loved exploring and welcomed the chance to search out new knowledge.

Vaielom was a loyal friend to Rammel. He found Danni to be a mild annoyance, but he decided to help teach him to be respectful, at the very least.

Rammel and Vaielom had stopped at a tavern to eat, and there they met an Arcane Archer, who started to follow them around after they left. They asked the archer for her name.

"Phoenix," she replied.

Uh, I'd like to join in and have a go at this, but I don't know what an Arcane Archer is ... is it something I can make up? Or can someone explain it to me?

kagechaos · 09-08-2006, 11:54 AM

It's an archer (uses a bow) who uses moderate complexity magic. Usually, they enchant their arrows with accuracy spells or elemental spells.

If you want to change the gender, feel free. All the characters are male so far. Otherwise, you should probably make a girl for the next character.

Hehe, okay, I'll be a girl then. Thanks for the explanation, kage.

Phoenix had been nervous about following Vaielom and Rammel, but Rammel looked a great warrior and she had heard of the monks' unrivaled skill in hand to hand combat, and wished to speak with them.

Phoenix has been trained to use a bow since she was small, and is an incredible shot. It wasn't until she was around ten that her skill with magic came out. She can cast no great spells, and will never be a powerful mage, but she can give her arrows extra speed and strength, and occasionally embued them elemental properties, which makes them more dangerous.

Phoenix demonstrates her abilities to Vaielon and Rammel by shooting a target on a tree. Maia, an elven druidess, witnesses Phoenix's display.

Excellent. By the way, I edited my post and changed it so Phoenix is a girl now.

Cold Twilight · 09-21-2006, 03:29 PM

Hey, Kage, are there any rules against taking another char?

kagechaos · 09-21-2006, 03:40 PM

Nope. Feel free.

Cold Twilight · 09-21-2006, 03:52 PM

Phoenix demonstrates her abilities to Vaielon and Rammel by shooting a target on a tree. Maia, an elven druidess, witnesses Phoenix's display.

Maia is very young, both for an elf, and for a druidess, but is highly skilled and shows great talent. Her silver hair, green, slanting eyes, pale beauty, and pointed ears mark her as different among humans, as well as a possible danger. She is surprised at the strength of Pheonix's magic, and wishes to discover more about the young Arcane Archer.

Quinella is a young wood elf who came along with Maia, and is learning the skills of druidry and combat.

changing the name

Quint's eyes stare off as if he iss concentrating very hard on something in the distance. His black eyes and silence gives the others the creeps but he shows no sign of recognizing it or caring. He is a mute and casts his druid magic simply by thinking it.

All of a sudden something caught his eye and he turned to point at a newcomer. Hayan the professional ranger silently stepped towards the rest of the group.
