[font=verdana]Villains... monsters... masterminds... the
beautiful land of Kenview needs Heroes. Noble warriors who band
together into the guild to battle evil. Thus begins the story of
The Hero's Guild.
The setting is fantasy medieval Europe- a land of knights,
heroes, dragons, princesses, rescues, etc.
Characters may freely use fantasy elements, but no guns. Please,
for the love of god, no guns.
Anyone caught using a gun will be kicked out. Seriously, no
guns.[/font]
The Quest System
The main element of this role play is the Quest system. Once
your character joins the guild, he/she can team up with other
characters, forming small 2-5 member teams and going on Quests
listed on the main page here. The story then continues from your
point of view on that quest until it is finished, at then which
you all return to the Guild, collect your rewards and either
disband the team and join new people, or stick together and keep
questing.
This Quest System was designed to avoid too many characters
crowding one scene, which causes some slow typists to lose the
opportunity to post. Optionally, you can make it rotation-style
turn based RP, so members of a team take turns posting. This
could help with the flow, but could also could pose a problem if
one of the group members becomes inactive. In that case, after
24 hours of inactivity the next person in rotation should post.
(Of course, these rules are optional and it's all up to the
leader of the group.) Quests take between 9 hours and 3 days in
RP time, but "Epic Quests" might take multiple days or even
weeks.
Basic Rules
-You may make a total of 3 main characters, and 4 side
characters.
-Side characters are store clerks, helpers, sidekicks, etc.
-If I deem a side character TOO major, I will move it up and a
Main character slot will be taken up by it.
-Quests are 1 main character per user per quest. You can't have
2 of your own characters in one quest.
-No God-Modding. Do not finish the quest too fast. The idea
isn't to finish the Quest quickly, but to enjoy the trip.
-If, for the sake of the plot, you wish to have your party FAIL
the quest, consult your fellow party members. Voting to make the
quest a failure MUST BE UNANIMOUS TO PASS.
-Consult your fellow party members after each quest if you wish
to disband, or stick together and go on another quest.
-If you want your character to enter a romantic relationship
with another user's character, ask them first.
Posting
-Post your currently active character's name at the top of each
post.
-When posting out of character, [Place brackets around your text
like this.]
-Each quest name will be corresponding to a color. When your
party accepts and transgresses on the quest, your character's
name should appear the same color as the quest's name.

Custom Quests
I will provide quests by default. If you want to create a custom
quest for others to play by, follow these rules:
-You cannot join a custom quest you've created.
-It cannot be too difficult
-It should not be tailored for a specific character.
-It should be theoretically passable by any party.
-Its rewards should not be too powerful.
-That being said, money is useless in this world. Provide some
minor reward that has some practical use.
[font=impact]THE QUEST LIST IS BELOW THIS POST.[/font]
[spoiler=Example]
I made a character called bob. Another user made a character
named lewis. We stage a scene at the guild where Lewis and bob
team up and form a party. We then look to the quest board and
see a quest that looks like this:
GENERIC QUEST NAME
Slay the slime in this place.
Reward: 20 monnies.
Then, until the quest is finished, my posts look like this
[spoiler=example of my post]
Bob
Bob saw the slime and killed it
[/spoiler]
Your color changes back to normal upon quest completion and
return to guild.
HAVE FUN!

Full Name: William Gagnier
Nickname: Will, William
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Personality: Bold, Extroverted (Will add more)
Appearance: 192cm tall, Brown hair, Hazel eyes (Will add more
later)
Romantic Availability: Single (Is open to romantic
relationships)
Class: Guardian Druid [In simple terms, a cleric tank]
Abilities: Guardians are essentially Knight's with more physical
and magical defensive prowess as well as higher Hit Points, but
with a substantially lower attacking power. Has access to many
taunts [enemy aggro]. Druids can specialize, generally, in
offensive elemental magics or support magics. Druids in terms of
support favor DoT healing techniques. In terms of straight up
heals, clerics and priests are better, however in the long run,
druids are more mana efficient when it comes to heals.
Skills:
Demoralizing Roar [Taunt skill, minor debuff of opponent], Smash
Howl [Taunt skill, boosts party morale], Willow Spirits [Basic
root/snare skill, works best on ground based opponents, lasts
0.5 to 10 seconds], Ferocious Vigor [Self DoT heal], Spirit's
Blessing [Group DoT Heal], Healing Aromatherapy [Group DoT
heal], Minor Heal [Single target instant heal], Healing Aura
[Single target DoT heal], [Insert two more single target DoT
heals], Shield Bash [Single target damage skill, minor
stun/knockback], Wide Slash [multi-target damage skill, 105%
physical attack] Fortify [Raise Defense], Fortify All [Raise
party defense], (Will add more)
Class Weaknesses: Basic weakness for all support/tank classes,
DPS is very low, DPS is very very low, cannot solo effectively
Personal Weaknesses: Does not like bitter things, dislikes
insects, is sensitive to noxious gasses, gets distracted easily
[Will add more]
Others: (Random other sections I feel like adding)
Equipment: (Will write it in tomorrow)

Full Name: Sylphaeda Haerelwen-Faineth Tegilbor
Nickname: Sylph
Age: 150 (Since she's an elf, and they're sort of immortal...)
Gender: F
Personality: Are we allowed to say TBRPed? Because they never go
as planned...
Appearance: Warrior: [IMG]

[Yeah.... I was
bored...]
Romantic Availability: I'm good with that stuff. (Single...
etc...)
Class: Elven-Warrior-Person
Abilities: Very light on her feet and adept at combat. (She can
totally walk on snow like Legolas, even in her armor since its
elven armor and elven armor is very light and flexible, though
very sturdy. XD)
Weaknesses: Her ears make her stand out, and in a lot of places
people don't like elves, so she sometimes has to hide them. She
has a hard time speaking the human tongue, so she doesn't
communicate well with other group members. She also cannot stand
being inside for too long and her health will visibly
deteriorate.
Others: She's not royalty, but she is the Elven equivalent of a
noble.
Sylph has changed her mind and wishes to join the deer hunt.

[For the record, this is supposed to be kind of a laid back RP.
For everyone else, you don't have to be RPG style. While I
appreciate the box's depth, you don't have to put complicated
stats or anything, as this is supposed to be less of a video
game and more like a story, or tv show style episodic format.
Basically, you don't have to put complicated stats like good ol
Boxy did. It's optional.]

[Romantic Availability is sort of a reference to Uncontrollable-
For instance, if you don't want your character to be involved
with a romantic sub-plot, put "Unavailable". If you're ok with
it, or at least are indifferent to such an idea, say so.]

Full Name: Rema Flazek
Nickname: Just call her Rema. It's pronounced jr-E-A-m-uh mushed
together, kinda. But that's only for formal occasions; otherwise
it's r-A-muh. You know what, just pronounce it however you want.
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Personality: Cold, but she smiles and opens up to her friends.
However, these people are few in number. She has no problem
talking and pretending like she's a psychopath to get what she
wants, whether information or a shiny new sword, but if she
actually killed someone she would probably die from the guilt.
Appearance: She has dark hair pulled into a messy knot on the
back of her head, along with matching dark eyes. She wears a
cloth mouth mask like most rogues do.
Romantic Availability: Single
Class: Rogue
Abilities: Extremely skilled in dual-wielding short blades. She
also has the skills of a normal rogue- sneaking, pickpocketing,
handling knives, lock-picking, lying, etc. As a rogue, she is
also very agile and good at climbing. Oh, and her poker skills
are commendable.
Weaknesses: Rema has arsonphobia (fear of fire), due to a nasty
memory of a dragon raiding her hometown. She can deal with
campfires if she's not too close, but anything larger will
paralyse her. She also doesn't use armor (like most rogues), as
she feels it slows her down too much. There is also a bounty on
her in some towns due to some *cough cough* misunderstandings.
Others: Rema has had bad experience with mages in the past and
generally distrusts them. And although she hates murder, Rema
has no problem crossing the line for other minor crimes.
Chibi: I made one, but there was an error when uploading. So,
here's the link if anyone cares:

(First one is normal appearance; second one is for formal
occasions/when she's in disguise.)

[font=corrier]Quest: Hunting Season[/font]
William Gagnier, Sylphaeda Haerelwen-Faineth Tegilbor, and Rema
Flazek have formed a party.
Would you like to proceed with quest with these 3 party members?
[Would prefer to wait for a fourth member but will accommodate
according to party's wishes]
[Also, Zen, how will we have these discussions pertaining to
group formations and such? It'll eventually spam the thread if
more people join it. Should we simply update our previous posts
with such details?]

Name: Gregory Gamophobe [anyone get the bad math pun? anyone?]
Nickname: Greg
Age: 26
Gender: M
Personality: Intelligent, fond of ridiculously convoluted plans,
overly formal
Romantically: Available
Appearance: Bright green eyes, dark shoulder-length hair,
stubble, muscular. Will put in chibi later.
Class: Summoner/beast-master/air elementalist [basically,
specializes in summoning/controlling animals and mythical beasts
of the air element eg. wolves, birds, gryphons, insects. The
wind element gives his creatures high speed and stealth, but
they are quite frail. He himself has terrible speed, adept
magical prowess, average physical prowess, and decent defenses.
His ranged attack (eg. bow) sucks.]
Abilities: Basic winged beast (summons large eagle, mid) Attack
winged beast (Summons dragon/wyvern, heavy to very heavy mana)
Swift winged beast (summons pegasus, heavy to very heavy mana)
Noble winged beast (Summons gryphon, heavy to very heavy mana)
Basic carnivore (summons hunting dog, low mana) Attack
carnivore (Summons bear, mid to heavy mana) Swift carnivore
(Summons wolf, mid to heavy mana)Noble carnivore (Summons lion,
mid to heavy mana) Basic swimmer (summons Tuna/codfish, low
mana) Attack swimmer (summons jellyfish, mid mana) Swift swimmer
(summons mako shark, high mana) Noble swimmer (summons orca,
high mana), ok... you get the idea. Also, good staff abilities
particularly wind attacks and decent sword work.
Weaknesses: He is completely outclassed by other characters once
he runs out of mana, because is physical/melee combat is
mediocre at best. This is also hindered by the fact that he runs
out of mana fairly quickly because many of his more powerful
spells require a ton of mana to use. Furthermore, personality
wise, he looks at the big picture and often misses obvious
details. He makes a point of being always honest and can be
blunt, making it sometimes difficult for people to get close to
him.
Equipment: Wears a teal-and-gray silken robe over his armor, for
channeling magic. Caries an ancient staff with a teal gemstone
at the end for his summoning and wind spells. Also carries a
wind sword under his robe where it is concealed but easily
accessible in case he runs out of mana or is forced into melee
combat. The sword has a gemstone in the hilt for channeling wind
magic. It itself is made of hard and dense compressed air that
can be released explosively.At his back are rolls of scrolls for
more difficult/specialized summons and he wears a number of
rings that enhance his magic.
Wants to do deer hunting quest with Will, Sylph, and Rema. If
rejected, no hard feelings, and he awaits a partner to do the
Trouble with Bandits quest.
