[ooc] Welcome to the Velvet Room

RULES

• Anyone may participate.
• Ask that posts be made regularly. I can understand, however, if school and such gets in the way (as it may for me).
• All rules of KH-Vids.net apply (durr plums we kno dat you DUM)
• For the most part, your actions shall influence how the game pans out. However, in certain points I will take the story by the reins and ride it harder than a yaoi fic. For better or worse. o;
• Have fun and chill. While you can. ::::)

FAQ

~What is this even based on?
Based loosely upon the games Persona 3 and Persona 4.

~OMIGOSH DOES THIS MEAN FIGHTS AND SOCIAL LINKS AND AAAAA
Yep! Although all those come into play later. o;

~I hate Persona.
Well poopoo on you for joining. >:L

~No spoilers...?
Yep! This is going to be its own original plot, and based around KHV as well. o;

~Will there be music and art...?
Well, I am horrible at both, so I will be relying on the OSTs for the most part (and drawing really bad pictures kukuku). However, if someone wishes to compose artwork and/or an original score, PM me first and we can work this out.

If you have any further questions, please send a private message to Plums.


Also, just in case anyone misses it in the quote:
Quiz to determine your Arcana.

Plus with Weakness and Strength Chart for the entire team!

Spoiler: Contract

Code:

Username:
Age:
Arcana:
Weapon:
Persona:

"My name is ______ and in this contract, I hereby affirm that I chooseth this fate of mine own will."

Spoiler: How to Play

As Game Master, I'll be moving the RP forward through plot shenanigans. Since this is based on Persona 3/4, the plot will be advanced by the shifting of the days. There are three main periods of the day.

Morning: This is the time you all get to school. Usually a Mish/Kitty scene here. Sometimes it will be skipped, other times it won't.

Evening: This is the SUPER FREE TIME PERIOD. During this time, you can travel across the city and purchase items or just chill out.

Midnight: During this time, you can choose to either sleep peacefully, or choose to enter the main dungeon, Püramiid.

There are other periods of the day as well, but those will be examination/plot oriented.

As a player, it is your job to keep track of the game, and post when required (aka battles and boss fights). Other than that, posting is somewhat lax -- this is not intensive by any means, and I'm not looking for anyone to kill themselves trying to post essays. xD Have fun and talk to each other!

Overall, sadly there will be no Social Links, except for the World S. Link, that increases as the story moves forward.

Other than that, just sit back and enjoy the ride. c:

Spoiler: Battle Mechanics

As this is a roleplay based on Persona 3/4, it will be using that combat system primarily. This means that all weapons are the same (no super powers), and everyone will remain relatively equal in terms of strength and weaknesses.

Anyway, during battle with a Shadow/Boss, your team will be divided into four main combat zones (will probably increase since more people are joining lololol).

For my sake when doing calculatios and keeping track of all this, please use the following form when declaring an attack:

Code:

insert witty banter here

Skill Used:
Username: 
Current HP: 
Current SP:

For the duration of the game, battle order will look like this -- CHANGES TO BE MADE SOON

Furthermore, all of you possess a set of Strengths and Weaknesses, which determine your resistance to certain attack types. For example, Cookiie is strong against Ice (Bufu), but is crippled against Electricity (Zio).

Should an enemy hit your weakness, you will be knocked down, and the enemy will gain an additional attack.

However, should one of YOU knock the enemy down, you may attack again. And if all enemies are knocked down, you will gain the chance to use an All Out Attack, which combines your Strength and hit all enemies. Typically this OHKOs Shadows, but not bosses. ;D


Also, one last note. Should you run out of SP, you can't use your Persona skills until it is replenished. Which is why you all have weapons with you JUST IN CASE.

Spoiler: Areas of KHV City

From this point out, you shall be attending KH-Vids Academy, a prestigious Year 07 to Year 12 high school in the city of KH-Vids. You are all new students to this school, and live within the same dormitory in the Chamber of Waking sector of the city. There are various sectors in which you can visit during the days and/or nights, each offering their own unique experience:


Community Square: The center of the city, and host to a variety of small thrift stores to shop in. In the center of it all is an event bulletin board, offering a multitude of events to participate in, all of which may serve to grant certain beneficiary effects. There is also a Weapon Shop run by the local Silversmith Rissy, which can be used to acquire new weapons. But what do you even need these for? Why is she even dealing weapons to children? Just what IS her DEAL????


SpamZone Plaza: One of the most active sectors of the city. Hosts a variety of public shows and offers karaoke, quiz games, and a movie center. There is also a Pheromone Coffee Shop owned by Beanologist Llave de Espada, which offers coffee that may increase other's green eyed envy upon you and an Item Shop owned by Mademoiselle Kites, which offers various accessories and armors to equip. But what do you need armor for??? The accessories sound pretty cute, though.


Cascades River: A local river that runs through the city. You heard there is quite an abundance of fish here, and if you catch a certain amount, a certain girl, Pearlhunter Maka, will appear before you one day and request to trade with you. If you fish during an examination week, you may catch a rare fish and be offered an even rarer item!


City Hall: Run by the staff members of KH-Vids. Every so often, whenever there is a major announcement, all civilians will be brought here to here from the staff. No one is usually allowed in, but there are rumors it gets quite empty around nighttime...


KH-Vids Academy: A prestigious school with a rigorous academics schedule. You attend school every Monday-Saturday, with a few vacations spread out amongst the year. There is one month of summer vacation in August. There are various after school clubs held throughout the year, including a Movie Club, a Writer's Club, an Art Club, a Singing Club, a Video Editing Club, sports teams (Basketball, Soccer and Rugby), and a Student Council. There is a library in which you can study and prepare for the midterm/final examinations, held tri-monthly. You've heard that if you get to the top of the class in scores, a teacher may offer you a surprise gift...


Dormitory: Where you will be staying throughout your stay at KH-Vids. There are many people moving in along with you, and more to come soon! Your dorm adviser is the ever elusive Plums, a member of the Staffing team. As he is somewhat lenient, you are allowed to go to the Mall and/or Plaza at night, but must return by midnight sharp. Girls rooms are on the third floor, boys on the second, and a lobby on the first floor.

I hope this is useful ^^ I'll be keeping it updated when we learn new skills.

 

This should help everybody with that.
http://megamitensei.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Persona_3_Skills

 

I know you can look up the Megami Tensei wiki if you need an instant answer, this is more of a list of all the skills we have access too for quick referance. For example, we have no access to light skills, yet four of us have access to the Zio skill. Stuff like that could be useful to know.

 

This will be very useful. Thanks for doing this.~ c: you spelt miscellaneous wrong​

 

Thanks Claw! That really helps.
Now I know what my skills actually are...

 

I had a questions for ya plums for when you can answer. I know you said that the only social link that your gonna do is the world (dormitory squad). If we players wanted to, could we keep track and do our on social links with each other. It would give if something extra to do during the evening free time.

 

Oh yeah it is very useful, thank you very much! =)

This can be also useful for the search, thanks! :D

And study...? :O

Other than that, thank you for the game. c:

"My name is Key and in this contract, I hereby affirm that I chooseth this fate of mine own will."

 

Hey Plums, just wanted to know if it is possible to battle other players. Ya know, for training.

 

Arright, nice to see there aren't too many questions on game mechanics yet (which makes me think everyone understood and I am coherent yay 8'D )

I will be opening the thread in about ten minutes. Since KS hasn't made his move yet, I'll be making it for him.

Anyway...

Hmmm, I think I will say yes, however, there probably won't be any stat/Persona boosts you'll get from it.

Possibly earning extra experience, but I'll see about that.

That's because the plot getting ahead required it. :c

After you guys beat or lose kekekeke to boss!Plums, you'll be able to go out at night.

Yep, forgot to add that. xD

No for PvP. You guys will be allowed to go off to Puramiid whenever during Midnight and train, though. Will have more on this later.

Acceptamundo~​

 

That's cool. I wasn't really expecting there to be buffs from doing it, it was just to add some as emerald would say BAM! flavor to it.

 

It's been ten minutes. Actually, it's been over an hour. I am eager to do some boss!Plums destroying.

 

Posted. Haseo's move.

Also, master of keyblades, I will be starting you after we end this boss fight (along with Chie Satonaka and Wingly). I'll try to speed things up a bit until then. o;

 

Now hopefully some players who haven't posted in a while will show up during the weekend, so we can really get the ball movin'.

 

Hey Plums, from who is that eye flash of the boss? :o

"My name is Wingly and in this contract, I hereby affirm that I chooseth this fate of mine own will."

Edit: Yeah, I did edit the weapon, but for once I want to give my character a weapon that is used in Legend of Dragoon. Not that it matters what weapon I use, it's just me being me

 

Oh, that's me. xD

I made ones for a couple of people for another thing I am working on. :v

 

YOU MADE? :O
HOW SO???

Also, Haseo isn't here since the 29th, and the limit of 24 hours has already been reach. =/

 

Alright, making Haseo's move now.

And I made them through this nifty game on DeviantArt
