Midori: "Okay, now this is a dream. How do I wake up?"You'll wake up when you answer these questions that another writer is going to ask you! "You! ... Why are you here too? Who's asking me what?"Just answer the questions so I can write more posts for you. "... Fine." "I'm Midori, a Sorcerer turned Heretic. My writer likes putting me in bizarre situations."It helps your character development. "I could do without the commentary sometimes.""Well, I was a 1st year college student before I got stuck in this game. Heretic as I mentioned. I'm not an evil Heretic though."They all say that. "I'd be more surprised if there was an evil Cleric around. Evil Heretics are too obvious. Anyway, my crafting subclass is Alchemist. It's pretty hard when I have nothing to compare it to in real life. I'm one of the rare Battle Puppeteers on the server as it doesn't seem to be a popular subclass at all.""Find out for yourself. I don't need to explain why.""I was born in Sheffield in the United Kingdom and lived there for most of my life. I had visited London plenty of times and was going to move down to London for school. I guess I was forced to move there when this all happened. Nowadays I live in Buckingham Palace as it's Apocrypha's guild base. I feel like royalty."It took me about an hour to think of the city she should have lived in. "I guess it was just a lot of curiosity. I spent the first day trying out my skills and seeing what the game had to offer. I mean, this world is very unfamiliar so it took me a long time to learn how it all worked. But really, now I didn't have to worry about social responsibilities. Yes, I miss my family at times, but I like to consider this an experience in learning to live away from home.""Just a word of advice to those who have someone they love. Tell them how you feel, just don't regret never telling them. Otherwise you'll feel a little jaded for quite some time."She speaks the truth. Do it. "Find out just what that underground stock market was and take advantage of it."You'll be rich and disappointed that no matter how much money you have, you still can't buy that Log Out Button though. "Definitely, or at least within the past few months.""Peppermint ice cream cake. Why? Why not. Do you really question a girl's taste in desserts?"She also likes strawberry and vanilla ice cream cakes. "Realistically? I'd turn on my computer and check the Internet."Much like any wise person would. "Mostly a mix of researching and practicing dark magic without being branded as a criminal to humanity. My writer likes making me meet new people. I guess it's nice because they're nice people too."I took down an RP with- "My question! And stop bragging about that! Um. I guess I was one of the top players on a popular MMO. Greatest achievement afterward? I guess it's being a guild leader and making new friends I've been closer to than in real life.""My puppet Allul-0, it's basically my partner everywhere I go."Spoiler: she's going to get a penguin plushie soon enough too. "Marked characteristic? You mean my Half-Alv tongue symbol? I guess that's it."Personality, it probably means. "Oh. I think it's on you then. My most marked characteristic is how weird my RP posts get when my writer gets bored.""It's not Mabinogi. I'd be set for life if I were stuck in Mabi.""I'd say so but I think I already said it before in a post somewhere. I don't like to repeat it.""Greetings from the Unfounded Kingdom. You're not missing much, I can't cook in this world either.""Presuming you have some? I guess how close some of them have been. I didn't really have close friends in real life.""Take the experience you learn here and use it to better yourself.""Take more healer classes. Really. We have like 50 Assassins already in the RP, you'll need to get really strong if you want to stand out.""RP more like a normal person!"No. "You say physics is altered for this question but this is what I have to deal with every day."

Post by Hirosame on Feb 19, 2015 10:00:31 GMT
Oh, uhh... Ask me questions? Well, I just thought it was me making my own moves. I have a narrator? That's... Unexpected. But, sure, go ahead and ask me questions.
...20 question? Ho geez. Welp, might as well get started.
1. Introduce myself? Well, I'm Hirosame, otherwise known as Hiro, and I'm presently the highest leveled monk and one of the two leaders of Apocrypha. The branch I lead is Solstice. I think that just about sums it up, right?
2. ...Oh, well. As I already said, I'm a monk, I'm 18 years old, and my subclasses are Mechanic and Idol. I didn't think I'd need to explain further, since I was already pushing it with the Apocrypha thing.
3. I actually don't think I'm very apart from the general people. I mean, I guess you could consider the fact that I'm high leveled is something that puts me apart from others, but that's not really the case. I don't think I'm different from most people, to be honest.
4. Hoh, this one's a doozy. I was born in Japan, and my original parents abandoned me when I was only about 2. From then on, I've lived in England with my foster parents and foster sister, under the name Blackbourne. And, as a fun little fact, Hirosame is my actual name. Just... My last name isn't what it used to be. I know there's a lot of Tachibana's out there, but it still holds a tinge of distaste to me. Anyways, getting sidetracked. As for where I live now, I live in the Blackbourne estate, a couple miles outside of London.
5. First day. Well, I'm assuming that it's meant for the day the Catastrophe happened, so I'll just go with this: It wasn't all that bad. Family life hasn't been very good lately, and since I've been here, it's actually been a good experience. I've made a ton of friends, and I've had more adventures than I could ever have imagined. So, things have been pretty nice, lately.
6. No, but this jackass writing for me has.
7. Ha! Everything gets better, keep on fighting!
8. I can't really say I've changed much as a person. If anything, the incident with the original Amaterasu has effected me, but I honestly feel that she's here with me. Since she gave me the Hellfire Drive power, every time I use the skill, it's like she's there with me. But, changing as a person, I can't say I've done much of that.
9. Cookie Cake. It's the best cake out there. No question. Chocolate Chips and frosting go so well together.
10. Hmm, now that's a tough one. I dunno, personally. I kinda got used to life here, so if I went back to the other world, I think I might end up being kinda sad. Of course, I'd wanna try and talk to all the people I've been talking with, and see how they are in real life, but it just wouldn't be the same. Life would just be so... Bland, y'know?
11. My days are usually spent doing chores around the Palace, questing with friends, new people, guild mates, alliance mates, or on my own, as well as doing guild-slash-alliance related things. Stuff like paperwork, and every so often a party or two.
12. Greatest Achievement? Wow, there's too many to chose from... Well, I guess Stonehenge is the biggest thing I've partaken in so far. While that was a group thing, it still was a pretty big achievement for us all. So, I guess that counts? OH! NO, WAIT! Trains! Yeah, I made trains! Those have to be it. Ten outta ten, biggest thing I've done.
13. ...Well I very much can't just go ahead and say my own junk, now can I? Well, I suppose that my most prized possession is my friends list. I don't fight with anything aside from my fists, feet, and pretty much my whole body, and I don't hold special meaning to my clothing, so I guess that's the closest thing I have.
14. My name isn't Mark. Moving on... What, a real answer? Fine. I honestly think that I'm memorable for how gung-ho I am about fighting. Optimism doesn't hurt every now and again, and if people want some optimism, come to me. I have more than enough to go around.
15. That I can't come and go from it as I please. As I explained beforehand, I rather like it here. It's been nice living here, feeling and living absolutely everything that is here. So, if I could, and everything came to an end here, I'd like to come back.
16. Greatest fear is, by far, not being useful to someone who needs my help. If I can't help someone who needs me, for whatever reason, and they die or are caused great harm because of it, I will never let myself live it down. It's a weird fear, but it's... It's something that haunts me.
17. One thing: You haven't lived yet. There's no greater world to be apart of, other than this one.
18. I value my friends entirely. Without question. I don't want or expect or even need anything from them. I'm just glad I have friends who are willing to follow my lead.
19. What's most important about this world is that we stay true to ourselves. We can get lost in the lore, god knows I have, but it's always good to find your center, and remember that you're you. Not your character. But, that's just me.
20. Advice? Shit, I dunno. Just do what you want to do, but don't be overly reckless. I'm absolutely reckless, but only because I can escape from situations, or conquer them outright. I'm a moron in that regard. Don't be like me, I suppose.
21. Stop yelling all the neeping time! Geez! It's like whenever he plays games, he's always freakin' yelling! Either that, or he needs to post. It's been a few days since he last posted, and all he's done is play games. Like, seriously. This guy has enough time to be playing games, when he could be posting. What's with this guy? Really!

Post by Charuen on Feb 19, 2015 14:07:34 GMT
1 - Please Introduce yourself. Hello! It's a pleasure to meet you and thank you for interviewing me today. My name is Charuen, and I am a cleric from the guild Aeryn.
2 - Please tell us a little about yourself, your age, class, sub classes etc. Oh! Well I am nineteen years old, and my main class is cleric. My crafting subclass is chef, and my roleplaying class is pathfinder.
3 - What sets you apart from everyone else? Haha, well I would have said my pink hair, but it seems many other adventurers have that trait. ^^ ...I'm not sure to be honest. I'm just another cleric I suppose.
4 - Where was you born? Where has you lived since then? And where do you reside now? I was born in London, England. I lived a while in Wales. I am currently residing in Westminster Abbey in Londinium.
5 - Tell us a little about your first day In the Unfounded Kingdom, first impressions, your thoughts. Hm... to be honest I don't remember very much. It was equally confusing, scary, and excting.
6 - Have you ever been in love you don't need to name names, if yes tell us a little bit about it and was it before or after the event? Wait... which event?
7 - What would you say to yourself if you could go back and speak to yourself that first day with the wisdom you have now? Hm... Don't make decisions with clouded judgement.
8 - Have you changed much the over the past year do you think? Urm, not changed. More like finding out things about myself.
9 - If you were offered a cake, what cake would you have and why? *whimpers* I love all cake...
10 - You wake up in the morning, and what a surprise! You are home, tell us the first thing you would do? *Taps chin* I'd... probably look out the window.
11 - How do you spend your days since waking up here? I get ready for the day, eat breakfast, and do some socializing and training throughout the day.
12 - What do you consider your greatest achievement before the Catastrophe and after it? Ah, nothing comes to mind. ^^;;
13 - What is your most treasured possession and why? The set of armor and weapon that Caerbannog made me!
14 - What is your most marked characteristic? My hair I suppose. *laughs lightly*
15 - What is it that you most dislike about this world? I miss my friends and family from the old world.
16 - What is your greatest fear? That people think badly of me.
17 - If you could say one thing to someone back home about your experience here, what would that be? *Tilts her head slightly* It was out of this world, to say the least. I don't think I can really describe it.
18 - What do you most value in your friends presuming you have some? *Bites her lip* Hmm... Friends who do not judge, yet can also tell me when I am acting in a selfish manner.
19 - What do you consider most important about Elder Tales and the world we find ourselves in. The people -- both the adventurers and the people of the land.
20 - What advice would you give to other adventurers? Enjoy, explore, experience.
21 - Looks like physics have been altered for this one. What advice would you give to your author? Stop being so lazy! *pokes*
22 - (Any Additional questions)

(I had too much fun with this. Sorry for possibly butchering everything. ^^;) "Eh? What's happening here?" said the guardian as he whipped his head around, trying to figure out what had just happened. "What's this place? Did someone fix a Fairy Ring or something? Scoria, is this your doing? Come on out here so I can thrash ya."
The metaphysical words floating in the air reminded the author of why he had dropped his guardian character in the first place, and with a fourth wall nudge, got Oxford back on track with this impromptu interview thingy.
"Ah, well...I'm Oxford. Sometimes 'Ox'. Never 'Ford'."
"If the bulky armor that I'm currently wearing didn't already reveal what my main class is, I'm a Guardian. And as for subclasses, I'm a--WHOA," exclaimed Ox. "LOOK AT THAT THING, IT'S GOT ALL MY STATS ON IT," he shouted as he pointed to the left side of this post where a nice table neatly summarized his stats. After getting over the initial shock that someone might have been playing him like a fiddle this whole time, he cleared his throat and resumed.
"Anyways, my crafting class is Alchemist, so I get to fiddle around with magic when I'm bored. Why I picked it? Well, it certainly wasn't for additional mana benefits for my main class. And the other class is Animal Trainer, where I have to look after some incorrigible ball of fluff."
"Distance, really. Oh wait, you're referring about one's inner self or some other uplifting thing like that, right? Uh...talent? No, that's a lie, I need a lot of that."
"I was born in the good ol' US of A, but I played on the London server due to some quarrels and misgivings that happened on the servers back home. But in-game, I'm just chilling in an old abandoned fortress just outside Londinium. Swing by the edge of Windsor sometime, and you can help me wash all my dirty dishes."
"Damn, it was scary...being a level 1 newb, surrounded by other newbs who didn't know what was going on either. I just knew I had to get out of there, and that's how I ended up getting chased by boars in the forest. Heh, 'fun' times..."
"Next question, please."
"Watch out for Maya-chan. She's a real bittie."
"Well, things are pretty nice. I wouldn't mind being stuck in here forever, honestly."
"All of them. Cake, cheesecake, cookie cake, ice cream cake, doesn't matter, I want it. Gimme gimme gimme."
"Eat some of that cake."
"Mostly just doing guild business like mentoring and recruiting, but often you can find me bumbling around some location just looking for stuff to fight."
"Ahh...well, I've got one, but that's for me to know and for whoever else cares to maybe possibly find out."
"Hmm...my glasses, I guess. Even though I don't need them, I still wear them around anyways."
"Glasses again. Not a lot of people wear them, surprisingly."
"The lack of trains. We need more."
"Not being there for those who needed me to protect them."
"They really updated the graphics in this patch."
"Honesty, because those who aren't afraid to speak their mind aren't really scared of anything else. Don't get that confused with chatterboxes, though."
"Learn to go beyond the limitations you set, and you'll find yourself doing things you thought you never could."
"Wander around and explore. Good things come to those who wait, but that doesn't mean you can't talk a walk while you wait."
"FOCUS. GEEZ, MAN, LOOK AT THAT BACKLOG."
Where's the AP at?

Do I really have to do this?
Do you have a choice?
You never give me one.
Then shut up and answer the questions.
Do I get food for it?
You get life.
...You don't give me that either.
No, I make you fight for it.
You make me fight for everything though.
SHUT UP AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS!
How can I shut up and answer questions at the same time?
...Mofugga you gon' dai...
<3
"No." Suddenly, a loud smacking sound echoes. Saber lets out a groan.
"I'm Saber. The bane of many people's existence. My living makes some people uncomfortable and upset. Hell, I was rated the least realistic character, which made me laugh." Saber chuckled and pushed his nose against his scarf.
"Haters gonna hate."
"I'm nineteen years young, in the real world anyways. I play as a multi-role Assassin and fill up every gap in the party which isn't already filled. My subclasses currently comprise of Animal Tamer and Alchemist. I look after three beasts and what I do with my crafting class is none of your business. I also maintain another crafting class, but that isn't for you to know."
You know you can't hide it forever.
"No, but I can hide who I am."
"Besides the fact that I can solo pretty much everything in the game? My ideals, as well as my will. This game world is a land which I thrive in and it has turned me into a vicious being. It has allowed me to live the way my Father taught me and I have perfected the way of combat. My mind flourishes and I am able to live in this world anyway I wish. Nothing can stand in my way, and I refuse to let this world hinder me. That is what sets me apart; my refusal to become normal."
"I was born in the mountains of the Alaskan frontier and I lived there much of my life with my family. When I came of age, I sought knowledge and flew to the United Kingdom with my best friend. I've lived there with my Uncle ever since."
"My first day? It was quite as one would expect. I finished patching the game, found myself here, and sat down on top of the building I spawned on. I sat there for an hour or so, staring towards the sun as it rose over the horizon and let my brain take in what had just happened... It was strange and I thought it was a dream at first, but when I felt the heat of the sun; I knew it was real. When I looked down towards the distant ground, the vertigo in my stomach was real. The air on my skin was cold; it was real. So, I did what I was taught to do by my Father; survive. The world was new, it was different. I had to learn about it and I had to get comfortable, so I left London. I went out into the forest and started to fight because that's all I knew... and that's all I still know."
"Before the event, I was quite attached to a woman. She taught me a lot about computers and games, but I lost her when the Catastrophe happened. I haven't found her yet, but I know she's still playing... somewhere... As for now, well... Look at the Snowball Ball event. That'll answer your question."
"What would I tell myself...?" Saber's nose wiggled and the Assassin looked down at himself. After a few moments, he let out a huff and looked back up.
"Not a thing... I'd just look at myself and smile because whether I say something or not, my mind was set. On the day I started in this world, I had made my choice. I'd leave behind everything comfortable and become a warrior. Nothing would change my mind and nothing has. If I went back, I would only give myself a pat on the shoulder and then walk away."
"I most certainly have. I'm a level ninety now and I'm far more skilled than I was before. I still haven't achieved my goal and it's a long ways off, but now I'm in a position where I can see the top of the tower I'm climbing."
"Chocolate cake. Nothing more needs to be said."
"Find my best friend."
"Fighting. And when I'm not fighting, I'm creating things. Though recently I've found myself looking out for the lower levels more than I have before."
"Before the Catastrophe, my greatest achievement was when I struck a charging bear between the eyes with an arrow... In the game? I slayed a raid boss by myself."
"My life and my sanity. I will not cave to this world and I will not let it take me."
"My solitary personality. I do everything alone even when it means doing the impossible."
"The lack of expansion. I'd like to explore more of the world, but technology is moving at such a crawl that I can't."
"Losing my sanity... I almost did once before. It was frightening."
"...I would go to my Father and tell him everything with hopes that he would smile. I'd tell him every moment, every fight, and everything I learned in this world... and all I would hope is that it would make him proud."
"I have friends?"
Apparently.
"It is an extremely diverse world that is packed with knowledge. The fact that people are not actively seeking it out at a higher rate astounds me."
"...You don't want me to answer this question."
"HEY. HEY BUDDY. YOU EVER THINK OF LETTING ME JUST LIKE... YOU KNOW... ENJOY MYSELF?"
"Having some company would be nice, but it seems to be a rare thing these days. For me at least."
Probably because of who you are.
"Haters gonna hate."

Post by Rook on Feb 20, 2015 1:56:10 GMT
1 - Please Introduce yourself.
My name is Rook Saten, Adventurer.
2 - Please tell us a little about yourself, your age, class, sub classes etc.
In regards to age, I guess I’m in my middle years when such questions are impolite.
My class in this world is enchanter, it was not my first choice, but I believe it is the healthiest choice for me.
I chose my subclasses experimentally and use them infrequently.
3 - What sets you apart from everyone else?
I am especially uncomfortable in my own skin around people I don’t know well. This is a slight barrier to building social relationships.
4 - Where were you born? Where have you lived since then? And where do you reside now?
My last place of residence before the catastrophe was a company dorm in England. I had not yet completed my immigration. Now I live in the slum quarter of Londinium.
5 - Tell us a little about your first day In the Unfounded Kingdom, first impressions, your thoughts.
My current body is very different to my old body. I couldn't walk and did not understand how to use the interface. I spent a lot of time in despair and I was very hungry. Later was better, but the fear of becoming the victim of lawless acts by other players still weighed heavily on me.
6 - Have you ever been in love you don't need to name names, if yes tell us a little bit about it and was it before or after the event?
Love means many things to every different person you ask. I would say yes, but it was over before the cataclysm.
It was deeply fulfilling, but I was afraid of losing myself and my situation to the infatuation. That it is over is probably my own fault.
7 - What would you say to yourself if you could go back and speak to yourself that first day with the wisdom you have now?
Do not wait to be saved. Nobody will/can save you from this. Sink or swim under your own power.
8 - Have you changed much the over the past year do you think?
Yes, in many ways, for the worse and the better.
9 - If you were offered a cake, what cake would you have and why?
A home-made cake, cooked with care by a friend. It’s the feeling that counts.
10 - You wake up in the morning, and what a surprise! You are home, tell us the first thing you would do?
Investigate what happened at the beginning and the end and why.
11 - How do you spend your days since waking up here?
I’ve spent a lot of time grinding trash mobs, too much time.
I’ve spent a lot of time being resentful and desolate.
Now I’m trying something new.
12 - What do you consider your greatest achievement before the Catastrophe and after it?
I’ve never really been the achieving sort.
13 - What is your most treasured possession and why?
It was my coat, which helped me feel moderately normal. Now it is gone.
14 - What is your most marked characteristic?
I’d like to believe it is my mind.
15 - What is it that you most dislike about this world?
I do not dislike this world.
16 - What is your greatest fear?
Right now? I’m not protected by the same social structure that used to surround me. I’m afraid that there is nobody who would fight for me if I needed help.
17 - If you could say one thing to someone back home about your experience here, what would that be?
Do underestimate the value that you carry in your mind.Though ephemeral to others, what you learn becomes an important part of you. That is especially true here.
18 - What do you most value in your friends presuming you have some?
I don’t know. I suppose honesty since a loss of trust is the end of a close friendship.
19 - What do you consider most important about Elder Tales and the world we find ourselves in.
I have never considered the worth of it. I suppose then, ‘that I am here’.
20 - What advice would you give to other adventurers?
People change, little by little, inch by inch. Please consider how what your mind consumes changes you.
21 - Looks like physics have been altered for this one. What advice would you give to your author?
Tomorrow is a promise written on wind, enjoy today more.
22 - (Any Additional questions)
I will find the answers myself, thank you.
