THE DIVINE CONFLICT BETWEEN HARMONY AND DISCORD RAGES ON,the fate of the world its promised prize. Fighting to secure it are brave souls summoned for that solitary purpose. Champions, cut from a cloth different from those which form the fabric of our world. Relying on what fragments of their shattered memories remain, they fight to end the conflict, and for a chance to return home to the worlds they each once knew. What the hell is this? This is a game. It's KHV's own version of the Playstation Portable game, Dissidia Final Fantasy, made by me with inspiration from the Death Note Game, all of its participants and creators (Special thanks to all members, specifically Pika, for handling it), and inspiration for a turn-based battle thread came from a former member named Slaughtermatic. Well, what's the story? Chaos, god of discord and Cosmos, goddess of harmony, are trapped in an endless cycle of war. Each fights the other, determined to tip the balance of discord and harmony in their favor. To that end, they summon several warriors to fight for their cause. The goal of each warrior is to defeat the other side and eventually finish off Chaos (for a warrior of Cosmos) or Cosmos (for a servant of Chaos). Only one can warrior can fight the discord god or the harmony goddess so at the end of each cycle, the surviving warriors must face each other. After Chaos or Cosmos is slain, the cycle begins anew. How does it work? You will pick a job (or class or theme). Each job has its own specific stats (Bravery, HP, and Speed) and commands.This is similar to a role-play, except you are the character (so no coming up with your own character). Each member will be dubbed by his/her class and username. If I was a Summoner, I'd refer to myself as Summoner Boy Wonder.After enough members join (by picking a job), I will personally assign each player to the side of Chaos or Cosmos (to keep it as balanced as possible).This will be a turn-based battle game. Who goes first depends on speed (and abilities).Each Cycle (round) will have as many mini-rounds until only one player is left. The player will be declared champion and take on Chaos or Cosmos in a little story post I'll type up myself (nobody will actually be playing or fighting these). What's the stages for each Cycle? 1. Warriors are summoned for each side (Members join and I randomly assign them to Chaos or Cosmos).2. Warriors face off against their counterpart (I'll assign opponents randomly).3. Victorious warriors from one side face victorious warriors from the other side until there's only one left (If it's an uneven number, certain warriors will 'betray' their team by switching to the other side. As in, I'll switch people to the other side. You can volunteer if you so wish).4. The remaining warrior will be declared Champion of Cosmos or Chaos and defeat the opposing deity (A little post about the remaining player taking on, fighting, and defeating the opposing deity will be typed up and that player will be declared the winner).5. New Cycle starts over with same and/or new warriors (You can join as the same job or a different job). What are the stats and commands? Spoiler Stats: Bravery (BRV) - The 'Attack' stat. This is how much damage each warrior will inflict on his/her opponent. Each job's Bravery is how much Bravery the warrior will start out the battle with. Bravery can be stolen from an opponent with a normal Attack or successful Block. HP - The 'hit points.' This is how much damage a warrior can take before falling. Only Finishers can affect this stat. Once enough damage and HP reaches 0, the warrior loses. Speed (SPD) - This stat decides which player's move is done first. For example, if Warrior 2 has 15 HP, 20 Bravery, and 10 Speed, and Warrior 1 has 10 HP, 20 Bravery, and 12 Speed, and both use their Finisher, Warrior 1 will attack first because he has the higher speed. Because he has more Bravery than Warrior 2 has HP, Warrior 2 will lose. If Warrior 2 attacked first, Warrior 1 would have lost. Commands: Attack - Steal Bravery from the opponent. This reduces the opponent's Bravery and increases yours. Each class has several Attack abilities, each taking different amount of Bravery. Finisher - Deal damage to the opponent's HP. Amount of damage done is the same as amount of Bravery. Once this is used, Bravery will fall to 0 and will slowly rise to the base Bravery by 33% of the base with each post (so it'd take 3 posts to get back to base Bravery). Bravery can rise faster with successful 'Attacks.' Each class has a regular Finisher and one with a special effect. Block - Block the opponent's attack (with lower Speed) or dodge the opponent's attack (with higher Speed). Blocking will steal 25% of the opponent's Bravery and reduces damage done to you by half. A dodge steals none but takes no damage whatsoever. How does a turn-based battle work? The point of each battle is to steal enough bravery from your opponent to raise yours with a normal Attack or successful Block. Each Finisher will do actual HP damage to your opponent. HP damage is exact same as your current Bravery. Bravery is reduced to 0 with each successful Finisher. Once HP goes reaches 0, the other player wins.The way you fight is by sending me a Private Message with your Command.You have a choice of Attack, Finish, or Block. For Attack and Finish, you must send the specific ability you wish to use.Each turn will be composed of a command from each warrior. Who goes first is determined by Speed (and possibly an ability). If both warriors have the same Speed, the first move will be decided by coin toss or at random unless that ends the match; in which case, an PMed event between the two warriors will decide the first move.If either warrior for any Match goes too long without sending in a command, said warrior forfeits the match, but it will still be typed out, with me (the judge) choosing the commands to deliberately lose. If both warriors neglect to send in a command, then both will be eliminated. So how does this start? First, you pick your job from the list below. Each job has its own stats and abilities.After being matched up for the first round and round officially starts, Private Message the judge (usually me) your first command.The judge will type a little story using both warriors' commands and do the math himself.The winner will move on to the second round.The final winner of the story will face the opposing god, Cosmos or Chaos, in a scripted battle typed by the judge.The Cycle's results will be posted in a Results/Hall of Fame tab and the next Cycle starts. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cycle Progress Jobs Past Cycle Stories Past Cycle Results Hall of Fame The Match-Ups and Progress for the current Cycle will be posted here.Cycle #1 not yet started!
