14. Create Your Own

Now, I can’t do everything myself, so I have created threads for active imaginations who have ideas for Missions, Items, Mission Items, Abilities, Jobs, Races even, better ways of going about the system and just cool stuff in general to add to our RolePlaying system. I am open to just about anything. There will be an individual thread for each. It you wish to create a new item (either for a Holiday Prize or just an item in general), post everything about it. An example would go like this:

There are no limits! Just try to keep the item from being over powered like my Fire Emblem. Since it is, it’s going to be very difficult to obtain. And my Lord class will need tweaking. So feel free to make up what ever you like. It is not guaranteed that your idea will be used. I (or a Judge) may ask you to make some changes, take away some abilities and so on. So please do not get upset with us if we ask you to change it, make it hard to get and/or reject it entirely. I assure you, I will try to use everyone’s ideas and incorporate them into our RolePlaying system! Also, if you propose an idea and it gets approved, you’ll get a prize! If your item gets approved, it will be added to your inventory by myself or a Judge. If you proposed a Mission Item, your Clan will receive the Mission Item with knowledge that it was you who created it (Maybe your Clan Leader will give you an extra something because of it). Myself or a Judge will add the item to the Clan Mission Item list and add a comment to the History section as such: “Received Mission Item “Fire Emblem” from member Marth-chan/Leslie’s creation”. Should you have created an Ability for a job that your race can take, you will have Mastered the ability, even if you aren’t in that Job at the moment. That Ability will be added to you “Mastered Abilities” section of your Character Profile by either myself or a judge. Jobs are tricky, however, if you created a rather over-powered class, you will not be able to take that class right away. It all depends on the requirements for that class. If (like my Lord Job), you need to fulfill a mission for it, that Mission will then become available only to you (and any team members you need) to fulfill at any time. If the job is not over-powered and you can take that class, you will be given that job as a job you may take whenever you please. As for races, this will be even harder. If you create a race and want to replace your current race with that one, you will be allowed, but all your mastered abilities will be erased. Your level will not be reset, but all current EXP will be lost. Your stats will change based on your new race and the job you started in. As in, your base stats will be calculated and you will receive the minimum stats gained from your level ups. This will be done by either myself or a judge, so you will need to wait for your race change. There after, your race (unless you specified other wise) will be available for new players.

The Judges and myself will be harsh with Jobs, Abilities and Races, we will do our best to be fair with our judging, but we have to be harsh to prevent un-fairness. Sp please do not be upset if we reject an idea or ask you to make drastic changes.

If existing players wish to change races, they are in for a rough time. I’m not going to make it easy for you to change races. After you change races, you will not be able to take any of those missions again for an amount of time.

Creating your own clans. I don’t want any one-man clans! You may only make your own clan if you have three or more other people interested in being in your clan. Further more, you must complete at least 50 Missions. You must be on level 15 and you must forfeit 2,000,000 gil to create your own Clan. When you do, you may proceed to create your own thread for your guild, and all interested clan members may request leave to join your guild. Your Clan may not be official until you have at least three members and there will be some missions you cannot go on until you have more members.

15. Role-Playing Pub Subforum

Here is where all outside Engagement/Missions happen. All Clans are entitled to a Sticky Thread here for recruitment and challenges. I believe only a Judge can make the thread a Sticky, so you will need to ask a Judge to Sticky it. Players are allowed to trade items for other items or gil. Every item has a price value and players may sell their items for a profit. There will be limits to this! An item may not be sold for more than double its price value, period! When you sell, trade or give an item to another player, you must make note of it in your “History” section of your Character Profile. The player receiving, buying or trading for the item must also make note of it in their “History”. Clan Leaders are allowed to sell, trade or give their Clan Loot and Mission Items to other Clans. They may NOT give/sell/trade Mission Items to players, Mission Items are for Clans only! Players interested in creating their own Clan may post in this sub-forum asking other players to join them. Players may also ask other players to join them in accepting Missions. Players may challenge each other to engagements here as well, but they must actually engage each other in the proper sub-forum. A note about Individual Missions: You may ask a member of another clan to join you on an Individual Mission. It is only Clan Missions where you may not have more than one clan on any given side.

Players may also ask for help here if they re unsure of something and this huge hulking document doesn’t answer it. Only PM a Judge or myself if no one answers or cannot answer your question.

16. The Ivalice Role-Playing Sub-forum

It occurred to me recently that when the idea of Role-Playing was initially brought up, most of you probably didn’t mean actual role-playing for fighting. However, I am a stubborn nutcase and insisted on finishing what I started, but that made me feel bad for those of you who still want to Role-play but not fight. Therefore, this Sub-forum is strictly for non-violent Role-playing.
It will follow some guidelines from my work of art that I spent four years trying to create (Geez…has it really been four years?).

Participants may be any job and race they chose that exist in the regular system. Including those that were made up.
There will still be Clans. Any player is allowed to create a Clan.
No one may create a pub thread. There will be only one, unless that one gets too badly crowded.

If you wish to join in on the Role-Playing, please post in the “Non-Violent Bios” thread. You may change your character at any time, but please leave a reason. An example is as such:

Quote:

Name: Siita
Age: 19 (Character age, not your actual age. Also, unless specified otherwise, all races have the same lifespan as a regular Human in this world.)
Race: Hume
Job: Blue Mage/Seer (Job/Second Skill Set)
Clan: Crystal Force

Personality:

Physical Appearance:

Notes:

You may Role-play however you wish, but I do have some rules I must set down.

1. The TOS of Gaia. Read ‘em and weep. These have to be followed and there are NO exceptions.

2. I know you guys have heard this all a hundred times over, but I must say it. Do not insult/flame or use any other method of grammatical violence. If another player asks you to stop, stop!

3. Do not tell some one to leave for no reason, unless they are being rude and obnoxious, don’t try to force them out. If they are still being a bother, PM a Judge or myself for help.

4. Have some fun! Seriously, the point of this Sub-forum is for fun!

5. You may only have profanity or above PG-13 content so long as the title of your thread has a warning for them. Make sure to mention Profanity or PG-13 in your opening post if you plan to have them or it appears in your thread and you do not wish to have them deleted. Myself or moderators may delete or edit posts and threads if they encounter anything too inappropriate or the thread does not make mention of such things. I do not know offhand if regular members can delete posts in their own threads or not. If you are unable to delete a post. PM either myself or a Judge.

I will not limit you any more on fun. Enjoy yourselves.

17. New Players

If you’re new to this Role Playing System and have no idea what you’re doing, here is a summary for you!
First, read everything in this thread! Then, you may chose whether you want to try the battling system or if you would rather be non-violent. You can do both if you so wish, but be forewarned that the violent version can be demanding.

If you chose to try the Battles:

The first thing you need to do is create a “Character Profile”. There is a sample of a Character Profile above. Fill out your character name, race, basic job (ONLY), base stats based on your Job and basic equipment. Feel free to ask any Judge, myself or another player for help! Myself and my beloved Judges are here to help you! There is no such thing as a stupid question (Unless you ask to use the bathroom…) And I would like to think that all the people in this guild are all kind, helpful folks who won’t lecture you for asking for help. A Judge will need to check your Character Profile anyway for mistakes before you may begin Accepting Missions. So, after you create your profile, request that it be checked in a thread I have made called “Check My Profile”. A Judge, or myself will check the profile, fix any issues and add a comment to your “History”. If they need to, they may PM you and discuss your character. Do not get upset if you find a PM in your inbox labeled “FFTA Guild – Character” from some person you don’t know. They likely encountered a problem with your character and are not too sure how to proceed without accidentally messing something up, or they need to confirm something with you. So answer back as soon as you can.
After your profile has been made and a Judge has checked it, you need to find a Clan to join. There are two clans that will start our Role-Playing system off. These two clans are not allowed to reject members. If you want to join their clan, they may not turn you away. Other clans, however, may reject you for various reasons. Do not feel offended if they do.
After you have been accepted by a clan, now you can start playing. You may now accept Individual Missions and your Clan Leader may ask you to complete a Clan Mission on behalf of the clan with some other clan members.

You would do well to make friends with other players. This way, they’ll go on Individual Mission with you, or ask you to go on one with them. If you are having trouble making friends, try going to other sub- forums and talking to people there. If after all that, you still can’t make friends, try the other clans. Perhaps people in those Clans are nicer than the Clan you’re in now. But give it time. You are allowed to take Missions by yourself. You will then be paired with some one, or given another single opponent to face.

If you chose to be Non-violent. Post your character in the “Non-Violent Bios” thread. You need not worry about level, abilities, equipment or the like.
Chose a thread and start posting, but be sure to read the first post first! Some Threads may have above PG-13 or profanity in them.

I wish you all luck!
