==[The Seer of Ironhaven]== Monstrous sea creatures do exist, and that appear to be lead by a ghost that wears sunglasses and speaks like a surfer dude. Honestly, it's not the weirdest thing that's happened to you on a job. The ghost is likely being summoned and controlled by a sorcerer somewhere in Aekran, and stopping them would more than likely dispel the spirit and destroy the sea monsters. In order to track down this malevolent sorcerer, the emperor has informed you of a seer in Ironhaven who should be able to help you. To get to Ironhaven, however, you'll need to obtain a boat.
You arrived in Ironhaven without incident. Your next priority would be to visit the seer.
The seer informed you that the sunglasses wearing spirit was summoned by a heretical mage known as Gregory. The only way to seal the spirit away is to stop Gregory, but to do so, you'll need to track him down. The seer pointed you in the direction of several creatures Gregory has summoned. Apparently, eliminating them and collecting whatever they leave behind will allow you to pinpoint his location. You set off, prepared for combat.
You fought and defeated Krab, Cracker of Shells, and obtained its soul. Three foes remained before you could track Gregory down.
It was a long fight, but you destroyed Mechacrab, the Cyborg Crustacean. Its core belonged to you now. Only two targets left.
In a rather decisive battle, you slayed Crabbell, Ringer of the Tides and obtained a magical image of its bell. One target remains.
You have vanquished all four of Gregory's champions. The seer should be able to help you locate him using the relics you obtained from them.
You returned the remnants of Gregory's champions to the seer. After you assisted her in dealing with a group of assassins, she began to focus her magical power to locate the heretical mage, Gregory. It will take some time for her to finish, so you have been left with some free time.

==[Gangbusters]== On the way to Acrus, you were attacked by a group of brigands intending to rob you. One of them managed to escape, but he dropped what appears to be an identification badge depicting a hawk impaled with two swords. Judging by the fact that they have matching badges, they may be an organized faction. There may be value in learning more about them.
Apparently, these bandits are been lurking around Acrus for some time. One of the city guards mentioned one of them being detained. You might be able to use your reputation to question the bandit and learn more.
You cleared out the hideout in Acrus, with the brigand cell leader in tow. In a strange turn of events, some mysterious humanoid bear creature got loose in the building and laid waste to everyone inside. Additionally, it seems to have expressed interest in hunting you down at some point in the future.
You cleared out the hideout along the country road. You learned that this particular band of brigands is a major Crimson dealer in this part of Aekran, and that they hired a hitman to deal with some of their major enemies. All you know about this hitman is that he goes by the name of Ghost.

==[Magical Artifacts]== You happened upon a mysterious fellow in the sewers of Acrus, carrying an unusual relic. He mentioned that there are two other relics somewhere in Aekran that, when brought together, would lead their holder to an ancient ruin filled with unimaginable treasures. You decided to keep that in mind, just in case.
Turns out that mysterious fellow was a power hungry megalomaniac known as Geralt of Nivea, and the story he told was only partially true. Whoever holds all of the relics will apparently gain an incredible power, enough to make taking over the Aekranian empire a very real possibility. You prevented Geralt from obtaining more of the relics, and even relieved him of one of them. One relic remains unaccounted for.

==[Haunting Visions]== You were presented with a strange vision one night before you fell asleep.

You decided to get some help from someone more with more knowledge on this subject. Ironhaven was your next stop.
According to the Seer, you are being hunted by an eldritch horror named Kar-nthal the Formless. Apparently, it's trying to drive you insane so it can easily "assimilate" you. The seer is willing to help you track it down, but she needs some supplies. She's given you a list of what you'll need.
You brought the seer the herbs and elixirs she needs, as well as resupplying her with sparkling water. She still requires the heart of an eldritch creature. Any enemy classified as eldritch should do.

==[An Imperial Contract]==
The emperor of Aekran has contacted you directly. He has requested your presence in Acrus, the capital city of Aekran. You're unsure of what the emperor is asking of you, but completing a contract for him would not only pay well, but would also vastly improve your reputation. On your way to Acrus, however, you were ambushed by unknown assailants. You'll have to get through them before you can get to Acrus.
Your meeting with the emperor was interesting. He informed you of an unusual rumor of monstrous sea creatures attacking people and dragging them into the sea, never to be seen again. He has asked you to investigate this matter and, if the rumors are true, put a stop to it.
You engaged a bizarre sea creature in combat and have slain it. Whatever it is, it doesn't seem like a naturally occurring creature. This thing was created by someone, somehow. Not only that, but you encountered a ghost wearing sunglasses that wants you dead. You have decided to tell the emperor what happened on the shore.
The emperor directed you toward the town of Ironhaven. A seer lives there, and she should be able to help you deal with the sunglasses-wearing ghost.
Your attributes determine your stats. You can increase your attributes by leveling up, equipping powerful gear, and by utilizing training halls in towns.

=====[Magic stats]=====
==[Magic]==
Your basic knowledge of magic. It primarily affects basic magic spells, but has a slight influence on all other types of magic.
==[Hydromancy]==
Your knowledge of water magic. Water-based spells are highly versatile and can be used in offensive and defensive roles.
==[Pyromancy]==
Your knowledge of fire magic. Fire-based spells are primarily offensive, dealing high damage and immolating targets.
==[Geomancy]==
Your knowledge of earth magic. Earth-based spells have strong defensive capabilities, while also being useful attacks.
==[Aeromancy]==
Your knowledge of wind magic. Wind-based spells can be used in several ways, from enhancing mobility to breaking the enemy's formation.
==[Cryomancy]==
Your knowledge of ice magic. Ice-based spells can take the form of powerful attacks or inexorable
defensive wards.
==[Electromancy]==
Your knowledge of lightning magic. Lightning-based spells have excellent attack power, and synergize well with water magic.
==[Necromancy]==
Your knowledge of necromancy. Necromancers are able to reanimate the dead, as well as create deadly
poisons and toxins.
==[Polymancy]==
Your knowledge of shapeshifting magic. Polymorphs are highly respected in combat for their adaptability and quick thinking.
==[Light magic]==
Your knowledge of light magic. Light-based spells are primarily used to ward off demonic creatures and heal wounds.
==[Dark magic]==
Your knowledge of dark magic. Darkness-based spells are a seldom used type of magic, as their use is forbidden in several parts of the world.
Your stats are an indication of how powerful you are. You want them to be as high as possible. Your stats primarily increase as you level up your attributes, though there are other means of enhancing your stats.
Here is a list of all stats.
==[HP]==
Your hit points. These decrease as you take damage. If you run out of HP, you get KO'd.
==[Damage resistances]==
Damage resistances indicate a percentage reduction to the damage you take. Most resistances are divided into the various damage types. One point of damage resistance reduces incoming damage by 1%.
==[Defenses]==
Defenses indicate a static reduction to the damage you take. Most defenses are divided into the various damage types. One point of defense reduces incoming damage by one point.
==[Status resistances]==
Status resistances indicate your ability to resist status effects applied to you. Status resistances are divided into vitality status resistance and endurance status resistance. Higher status resistance reduces the chance of you being afflicted with a status effect, as well as the potency of the status effect if you do get afflicted.
==[Equip load]==
Your equip load measures how heavy your equipped gear can be. As you get closer to the maximum, your evasion rolls will be lowered, and if you go over your maximum equip load, you won't be able to evade attacks at all.
==[Speed]==
Speed determines when in each turn you'll be able to take your action. Raising your speed will allow you take your actions sooner in the turn.
==[Mana]==
Mana is used to cast spells and use active abilities. You regenerate some of your mana every turn.
==[Inventory capacity]==
Your carrying capacity determines how many items you can carry on your person. Heavier items take up more space. This is a separate stat from equip load, so having a full inventory won't affect your ability to dodge.
==[Persuasion score]==
Persuasion score is your ability to talk your way into getting what you want. There are several factors that influence persuasion score, most notably your charisma attribute. Higher persuasion score makes it easier to win people over with words alone.
Weapon proficiencies indicate a higher level of skill in utilizing certain weapon types. If you use a weapon type you're proficient with, the weapon's stats will be enhanced in various ways. There are two ways to obtain weapon proficiencies: class selection, and undergoing weapon training. Every class has their own set of weapon proficiencies, but you can become proficient with other weapon types by finding weapon masters willing to teach you, at which point you'll begin a personal side quest to become proficient in a new weapon type.
Every turn in combat, each player gets to take a major action and a minor action. Major actions are things like attacking enemies, healing allies, and using items. Minor actions are things like searching containers, talking to people, and looking around. If you choose to take a minor action, your major action will be slightly weakened, so there's value in only taking a major action. You can also take two minor actions at once, if you so choose.
The order in which units take their turn is determined by their speed and the results of a dice roll. Your turn priority is your speed + (1 x D6). Units with the highest turn priority go first, and units with the lowest go last. Turn order will be listed on every update. If a player doesn't take their action in an update, their action that turn will be skipped.
When a player's HP reaches zero, they get knocked out. KO'd players can only perform minor actions, and therefor can't heal allies or attack enemies. Players cannot be KO'd outside of combat.
KO'd players will automatically be revived with 10% of their max HP at the end of combat. There are other means of reviving players in the middle of battle, though they require abilities, items, or particularly effective healing attempts.
The damage players inflict is dependent on the strength of their weapon, the result of their attack dice rolls, and the creativity of their attack. Your weapon's attack stat is the minimum amount of damage the weapon can deal, assuming you get an average dice roll and perform a basic attack. Putting more effort and creativity into your attacks increases the damage of your attack, up to double your weapon's attack stat. High dice rolls can further enhance your damage.
Blocking can be performed as a minor action. Doing so will grant you an amount of block that depends on your weapons' defensive value and the outcome of a dice roll. Block functions as damage absorption; you'll lose block before you lose HP.
Whenever you perform something significant, you gain XP. When you gain enough XP, you level up. Leveling up allows you to enhance your attributes and, occasionally, learn a new ability. You can learn a new ability every 5 levels. There is no level cap.
Every 5 levels grants you the ability to learn a new ability. When this happens, you can create your own ability to obtain. Do note that the ability's strength must be reasonable for your current level, and if your ability is too strong, it may have to be nerfed. It's also recommended that your abilities thematically fit with your class, as this will make them stronger.
There are also preset abilities that can be learned throughout the game, at various sources. You can mix these in with your custom abilities to create a build that works perfectly for you.
There are several types of damage, all of which have their strengths and weaknesses. Each damage type also has an associated status effect that will occasionally be inflicted when damage of that type is dealt.
Here is a list of all damage types.
Impact: inflicted by bludgeoning weapons. Can occasionally stagger an enemy, hindering their accuracy and evasion.
Slash: inflicted by blades. Can occasionally cause enemies to bleed.
Puncture: inflicted by thrusting weapons and projectiles. Can occasionally weaken an enemy, reducing their damage output.
Water: inflicted by hydromancy and water-infused weapons. Can occasionally douse the target in water, making them vulnerable to electricity.
Fire: inflicted by pyromancy and fire-infused weapons. Can occasionally light the target on fire.
Earth: inflicted by geomancy and earth-infused weapons. Can occasionally shatter an enemy's defenses, leaving them vulnerable.
Wind: inflicted by aeromancy and wind-infused weapons. Can occasionally disarm the target, weakening them or forcing them to grab their weapon.
Ice: inflicted by cryomancy and ice-infused weapons. Can occasionally freeze the target.
Electric: inflicted by electromancy and lightning-infused weapons. Can occasionally electrify the target, which also shocks nearby enemies.
Toxic: inflicted by poisons. Can occasionally poison the target.
Magic: inflicted by magic. Can occasionally hex the target, making them more vulnerable to status effects.
Light: inflicted by light magic. Can occasionally blind the target, or severely damage eldritch creatures.
Dark: inflicted by dark magic. Can occasionally corrupt the target, which can frequently lead to an early demise.
You can look around at any time. Doing so can allow you to find items, notice interesting people, and get your bearings. Looking around counts as a minor action in combat.
Heavier equipment can increase your level of encumbrance, which can impact your evasion.
If you are below 30% of your max equip load, you'll gain +1 to your evasion dice rolls.
If you're between 30% and 60%, your evasion won't be impacted at all.
If you're over 60%, you'll gain -1 to your evasion rolls.
If you're over 100%, you won't be able to dodge attacks at all.
You slowly heal over time when out of combat. You can accelerate the process with items or abilities. Using items or abilities will also allow you to heal in the middle of combat.
Sometimes, you'll get to choose what to say to people. You can say whatever you want, but be ready to deal with the consequences of your words.
Enemies can be classified as human, beast, or eldritch. Some perks and abilities may affect different classes differently, but that's about it.
You gain skill points whenever you level up. You can use them to increase your attributes and magic skills, or to upgrade your abilities.
If you run out of HP, you are KO'd for the rest of combat, or until someone revives you. While KO'd, you can only perform minor actions. KO'd players will automatically be revived after combat.
KO'd players can be revived in combat with certain items and abilities, or a high roll on a healing action. If a healing action isn't particularly powerful, it'll have no effect on a KO'd player. Players are typically revived with 25% of their HP.

"Do we want to be the mediocre brimstone boy, or do we want to be the more-than-enough brimstone man?" - Northernlion
"Firstly... who is this 'Ghost' figure?" I pull out the letter I got to them. "I found this while rummaging around one of your bases."
You show him the letter and question him.
"Oh, that guy... Some creepy assassin the boss hired to deal with people he didn't like. I've never even seen him before, but apparently, he's not someone you want to mess with. I heard he killed a king in some far off land."
"Any idea what this is or where it comes from?" (To be honest, if this was answered pages back, I've forgotten.)
"Really, you've never heard of Crimson before? It's a kind of drug. Makes you feel invincible. Of course, it doesn't actually make you invincible, but the feeling's nice. We're a band of Crimson dealers. It's not technically legal in Aekran, but, you know..."
He makes a gesture with his hand that says, "money, dear boy".

You decided to get some help from someone more with more knowledge on this subject. Ironhaven was your next stop.
According to the Seer, you are being hunted by an eldritch horror named Kar-nthal the Formless. Apparently, it's trying to drive you insane so it can easily "assimilate" you. The seer is willing to help you track it down, but she needs some supplies. She's given you a list of what you'll need.
You brought the seer the herbs and elixirs she needs, as well as resupplying her with sparkling water. She still requires the heart of an eldritch creature. Any enemy classified as eldritch should do.
[√] Visit the seer at Ironhaven
[√] Obtain the herbs and elixirs
[√] Obtain a case of sparkling water
[ ] Obtain the heart of an eldritch beast
==[An Imperial Contract]==
The emperor of Aekran has contacted you directly. He has requested your presence in Acrus, the capital city of Aekran. You're unsure of what the emperor is asking of you, but completing a contract for him would not only pay well, but would also vastly improve your reputation. On your way to Acrus, however, you were ambushed by unknown assailants. You'll have to get through them before you can get to Acrus.
Your meeting with the emperor was interesting. He informed you of an unusual rumor of monstrous sea creatures attacking people and dragging them into the sea, never to be seen again. He has asked you to investigate this matter and, if the rumors are true, put a stop to it.
You engaged a bizarre sea creature in combat and have slain it. Whatever it is, it doesn't seem like a naturally occurring creature. This thing was created by someone, somehow. Not only that, but you encountered a ghost wearing sunglasses that wants you dead. You have decided to tell the emperor what happened on the shore.
The emperor directed you toward the town of Ironhaven. A seer lives there, and she should be able to help you deal with the sunglasses-wearing ghost.

=====[Magic stats]=====
==[Magic]==
Your basic knowledge of magic. It primarily affects basic magic spells, but has a slight influence on all other types of magic.
==[Hydromancy]==
Your knowledge of water magic. Water-based spells are highly versatile and can be used in offensive and defensive roles.
==[Pyromancy]==
Your knowledge of fire magic. Fire-based spells are primarily offensive, dealing high damage and immolating targets.
==[Geomancy]==
Your knowledge of earth magic. Earth-based spells have strong defensive capabilities, while also being useful attacks.
==[Aeromancy]==
Your knowledge of wind magic. Wind-based spells can be used in several ways, from enhancing mobility to breaking the enemy's formation.
==[Cryomancy]==
Your knowledge of ice magic. Ice-based spells can take the form of powerful attacks or inexorable
defensive wards.
==[Electromancy]==
Your knowledge of lightning magic. Lightning-based spells have excellent attack power, and synergize well with water magic.
==[Necromancy]==
Your knowledge of necromancy. Necromancers are able to reanimate the dead, as well as create deadly
poisons and toxins.
==[Polymancy]==
Your knowledge of shapeshifting magic. Polymorphs are highly respected in combat for their adaptability and quick thinking.
==[Light magic]==
Your knowledge of light magic. Light-based spells are primarily used to ward off demonic creatures and heal wounds.
==[Dark magic]==
Your knowledge of dark magic. Darkness-based spells are a seldom used type of magic, as their use is forbidden in several parts of the world.
Your stats are an indication of how powerful you are. You want them to be as high as possible. Your stats primarily increase as you level up your attributes, though there are other means of enhancing your stats.
Here is a list of all stats.
==[HP]==
Your hit points. These decrease as you take damage. If you run out of HP, you get KO'd.
==[Damage resistances]==
Damage resistances indicate a percentage reduction to the damage you take. Most resistances are divided into the various damage types. One point of damage resistance reduces incoming damage by 1%.
==[Defenses]==
Defenses indicate a static reduction to the damage you take. Most defenses are divided into the various damage types. One point of defense reduces incoming damage by one point.
==[Status resistances]==
Status resistances indicate your ability to resist status effects applied to you. Status resistances are divided into vitality status resistance and endurance status resistance. Higher status resistance reduces the chance of you being afflicted with a status effect, as well as the potency of the status effect if you do get afflicted.
==[Equip load]==
Your equip load measures how heavy your equipped gear can be. As you get closer to the maximum, your evasion rolls will be lowered, and if you go over your maximum equip load, you won't be able to evade attacks at all.
==[Speed]==
Speed determines when in each turn you'll be able to take your action. Raising your speed will allow you take your actions sooner in the turn.
==[Mana]==
Mana is used to cast spells and use active abilities. You regenerate some of your mana every turn.
==[Inventory capacity]==
Your carrying capacity determines how many items you can carry on your person. Heavier items take up more space. This is a separate stat from equip load, so having a full inventory won't affect your ability to dodge.
==[Persuasion score]==
Persuasion score is your ability to talk your way into getting what you want. There are several factors that influence persuasion score, most notably your charisma attribute. Higher persuasion score makes it easier to win people over with words alone.
Weapon proficiencies indicate a higher level of skill in utilizing certain weapon types. If you use a weapon type you're proficient with, the weapon's stats will be enhanced in various ways. There are two ways to obtain weapon proficiencies: class selection, and undergoing weapon training. Every class has their own set of weapon proficiencies, but you can become proficient with other weapon types by finding weapon masters willing to teach you, at which point you'll begin a personal side quest to become proficient in a new weapon type.
Every turn in combat, each player gets to take a major action and a minor action. Major actions are things like attacking enemies, healing allies, and using items. Minor actions are things like searching containers, talking to people, and looking around. If you choose to take a minor action, your major action will be slightly weakened, so there's value in only taking a major action. You can also take two minor actions at once, if you so choose.
The order in which units take their turn is determined by their speed and the results of a dice roll. Your turn priority is your speed + (1 x D6). Units with the highest turn priority go first, and units with the lowest go last. Turn order will be listed on every update. If a player doesn't take their action in an update, their action that turn will be skipped.
When a player's HP reaches zero, they get knocked out. KO'd players can only perform minor actions, and therefor can't heal allies or attack enemies. Players cannot be KO'd outside of combat.
KO'd players will automatically be revived with 10% of their max HP at the end of combat. There are other means of reviving players in the middle of battle, though they require abilities, items, or particularly effective healing attempts.
The damage players inflict is dependent on the strength of their weapon, the result of their attack dice rolls, and the creativity of their attack. Your weapon's attack stat is the minimum amount of damage the weapon can deal, assuming you get an average dice roll and perform a basic attack. Putting more effort and creativity into your attacks increases the damage of your attack, up to double your weapon's attack stat. High dice rolls can further enhance your damage.
Blocking can be performed as a minor action. Doing so will grant you an amount of block that depends on your weapons' defensive value and the outcome of a dice roll. Block functions as damage absorption; you'll lose block before you lose HP.
Whenever you perform something significant, you gain XP. When you gain enough XP, you level up. Leveling up allows you to enhance your attributes and, occasionally, learn a new ability. You can learn a new ability every 5 levels. There is no level cap.
Every 5 levels grants you the ability to learn a new ability. When this happens, you can create your own ability to obtain. Do note that the ability's strength must be reasonable for your current level, and if your ability is too strong, it may have to be nerfed. It's also recommended that your abilities thematically fit with your class, as this will make them stronger.
There are also preset abilities that can be learned throughout the game, at various sources. You can mix these in with your custom abilities to create a build that works perfectly for you.
There are several types of damage, all of which have their strengths and weaknesses. Each damage type also has an associated status effect that will occasionally be inflicted when damage of that type is dealt.
Here is a list of all damage types.
Impact: inflicted by bludgeoning weapons. Can occasionally stagger an enemy, hindering their accuracy and evasion.
Slash: inflicted by blades. Can occasionally cause enemies to bleed.
Puncture: inflicted by thrusting weapons and projectiles. Can occasionally weaken an enemy, reducing their damage output.
Water: inflicted by hydromancy and water-infused weapons. Can occasionally douse the target in water, making them vulnerable to electricity.
Fire: inflicted by pyromancy and fire-infused weapons. Can occasionally light the target on fire.
Earth: inflicted by geomancy and earth-infused weapons. Can occasionally shatter an enemy's defenses, leaving them vulnerable.
Wind: inflicted by aeromancy and wind-infused weapons. Can occasionally disarm the target, weakening them or forcing them to grab their weapon.
Ice: inflicted by cryomancy and ice-infused weapons. Can occasionally freeze the target.
Electric: inflicted by electromancy and lightning-infused weapons. Can occasionally electrify the target, which also shocks nearby enemies.
Toxic: inflicted by poisons. Can occasionally poison the target.
Magic: inflicted by magic. Can occasionally hex the target, making them more vulnerable to status effects.
Light: inflicted by light magic. Can occasionally blind the target, or severely damage eldritch creatures.
Dark: inflicted by dark magic. Can occasionally corrupt the target, which can frequently lead to an early demise.
You can look around at any time. Doing so can allow you to find items, notice interesting people, and get your bearings. Looking around counts as a minor action in combat.
Heavier equipment can increase your level of encumbrance, which can impact your evasion.
If you are below 30% of your max equip load, you'll gain +1 to your evasion dice rolls.
If you're between 30% and 60%, your evasion won't be impacted at all.
If you're over 60%, you'll gain -1 to your evasion rolls.
If you're over 100%, you won't be able to dodge attacks at all.
You slowly heal over time when out of combat. You can accelerate the process with items or abilities. Using items or abilities will also allow you to heal in the middle of combat.
Sometimes, you'll get to choose what to say to people. You can say whatever you want, but be ready to deal with the consequences of your words.
Enemies can be classified as human, beast, or eldritch. Some perks and abilities may affect different classes differently, but that's about it.
You gain skill points whenever you level up. You can use them to increase your attributes and magic skills, or to upgrade your abilities.
If you run out of HP, you are KO'd for the rest of combat, or until someone revives you. While KO'd, you can only perform minor actions. KO'd players will automatically be revived after combat.
KO'd players can be revived in combat with certain items and abilities, or a high roll on a healing action. If a healing action isn't particularly powerful, it'll have no effect on a KO'd player. Players are typically revived with 25% of their HP.

"Do we want to be the mediocre brimstone boy, or do we want to be the more-than-enough brimstone man?" - Northernlion
"I guess I haven't. Back where I come from, all the drugs are either plants or powders..."
He's too shaken to be asked about the monster for now, so if we can talk to him later, that'd be optimal. I investigate more of the scene.
You look around some more. The clearing is modestly sized, and doesn't have much of interest aside from the hut. Aside from a few roaming animals, the only living things in the area are your party and the brigand. You notice a trial of dried blood leading from the door, but it disappears pretty quickly once it reaches the treeline. There are some scorch marks on the outside walls.
"Can I... can I go?" the brigand asks.
Points of interest:
City of Acrus (the capital city of the empire)
Brigand hideout (an underground cave infested with brigands)
Old hut (definitely a brigand hideout) [Everyone is here]

Bardic Tunes III (passive)
Gain access to a Tune Gauge, which fuels musical auras. You can switch auras as a minor action, and start with 1 TP (Tune Point). Each Aura has a different TP cost, so choose wisely. The TP does not get consumed, so the effects are typically weaker than just using a skill. Also allows you to fuel into an aura to enhance its effects.
Regeneratos Ballad: 1 TP
Each party member recovers (1 x D4 + Zephil's persuasion score divided by 10) HP each combat turn.
Hercules' Sonnet: 1 TP
Each party member gets a +2 to their attack rolls. NOTE: Does not have any effect if they critical fail or succeed.
Anthem of Blood: 1 TP

Limerick of the Guard: 1 TP
Each party member gets a +2 to their evasion rolls. NOTE: Does not have any effect if they critical fail or succeed.

Wind Waltz (active: costs X mana)
By channeling wind magic throughout the body, temporarily gain +3 to evasion rolls. Duration is 1 turn for every 7 mana spent. Also passively grants +1 to evasion rolls against enemies targeted by Have At You!. Also improves dancing skill, for reasons unknown.

Instantly create a barrier of ice, granting you 20 block.

When surviving an enemy attack, immediately hit back with a regular attack. Counter attacks cannot critically hit.
Arcane Missiles (active: costs 6x1.25 mana)

==[The Seer of Ironhaven]== Monstrous sea creatures do exist, and that appear to be lead by a ghost that wears sunglasses and speaks like a surfer dude. Honestly, it's not the weirdest thing that's happened to you on a job. The ghost is likely being summoned and controlled by a sorcerer somewhere in Aekran, and stopping them would more than likely dispel the spirit and destroy the sea monsters. In order to track down this malevolent sorcerer, the emperor has informed you of a seer in Ironhaven who should be able to help you. To get to Ironhaven, however, you'll need to obtain a boat.
You arrived in Ironhaven without incident. Your next priority would be to visit the seer.
The seer informed you that the sunglasses wearing spirit was summoned by a heretical mage known as Gregory. The only way to seal the spirit away is to stop Gregory, but to do so, you'll need to track him down. The seer pointed you in the direction of several creatures Gregory has summoned. Apparently, eliminating them and collecting whatever they leave behind will allow you to pinpoint his location. You set off, prepared for combat.
You fought and defeated Krab, Cracker of Shells, and obtained its soul. Three foes remained before you could track Gregory down.
It was a long fight, but you destroyed Mechacrab, the Cyborg Crustacean. Its core belonged to you now. Only two targets left.
In a rather decisive battle, you slayed Crabbell, Ringer of the Tides and obtained a magical image of its bell. One target remains.
You have vanquished all four of Gregory's champions. The seer should be able to help you locate him using the relics you obtained from them.
You returned the remnants of Gregory's champions to the seer. After you assisted her in dealing with a group of assassins, she began to focus her magical power to locate the heretical mage, Gregory. It will take some time for her to finish, so you have been left with some free time.

==[Gangbusters]== On the way to Acrus, you were attacked by a group of brigands intending to rob you. One of them managed to escape, but he dropped what appears to be an identification badge depicting a hawk impaled with two swords. Judging by the fact that they have matching badges, they may be an organized faction. There may be value in learning more about them.
Apparently, these bandits are been lurking around Acrus for some time. One of the city guards mentioned one of them being detained. You might be able to use your reputation to question the bandit and learn more.
You cleared out the hideout in Acrus, with the brigand cell leader in tow. In a strange turn of events, some mysterious humanoid bear creature got loose in the building and laid waste to everyone inside. Additionally, it seems to have expressed interest in hunting you down at some point in the future.
You cleared out the hideout along the country road. You learned that this particular band of brigands is a major Crimson dealer in this part of Aekran, and that they hired a hitman to deal with some of their major enemies. All you know about this hitman is that he goes by the name of Ghost.

==[Magical Artifacts]== You happened upon a mysterious fellow in the sewers of Acrus, carrying an unusual relic. He mentioned that there are two other relics somewhere in Aekran that, when brought together, would lead their holder to an ancient ruin filled with unimaginable treasures. You decided to keep that in mind, just in case.
Turns out that mysterious fellow was a power hungry megalomaniac known as Geralt of Nivea, and the story he told was only partially true. Whoever holds all of the relics will apparently gain an incredible power, enough to make taking over the Aekranian empire a very real possibility. You prevented Geralt from obtaining more of the relics, and even relieved him of one of them. One relic remains unaccounted for.

Every turn in combat, each player gets to take a major action and a minor action. Major actions are things like attacking enemies, healing allies, and using items. Minor actions are things like searching containers, talking to people, and looking around. If you choose to take a minor action, your major action will be slightly weakened, so there's value in only taking a major action. You can also take two minor actions at once, if you so choose.
The order in which units take their turn is determined by their speed and the results of a dice roll. Your turn priority is your speed + (1 x D6). Units with the highest turn priority go first, and units with the lowest go last. Turn order will be listed on every update. If a player doesn't take their action in an update, their action that turn will be skipped.
When a player's HP reaches zero, they get knocked out. KO'd players can only perform minor actions, and therefor can't heal allies or attack enemies. Players cannot be KO'd outside of combat.
KO'd players will automatically be revived with 10% of their max HP at the end of combat. There are other means of reviving players in the middle of battle, though they require abilities, items, or particularly effective healing attempts.
The damage players inflict is dependent on the strength of their weapon, the result of their attack dice rolls, and the creativity of their attack. Your weapon's attack stat is the minimum amount of damage the weapon can deal, assuming you get an average dice roll and perform a basic attack. Putting more effort and creativity into your attacks increases the damage of your attack, up to double your weapon's attack stat. High dice rolls can further enhance your damage.
Blocking can be performed as a minor action. Doing so will grant you an amount of block that depends on your weapons' defensive value and the outcome of a dice roll. Block functions as damage absorption; you'll lose block before you lose HP.
Whenever you perform something significant, you gain XP. When you gain enough XP, you level up. Leveling up allows you to enhance your attributes and, occasionally, learn a new ability. You can learn a new ability every 5 levels. There is no level cap.
Every 5 levels grants you the ability to learn a new ability. When this happens, you can create your own ability to obtain. Do note that the ability's strength must be reasonable for your current level, and if your ability is too strong, it may have to be nerfed. It's also recommended that your abilities thematically fit with your class, as this will make them stronger.
There are also preset abilities that can be learned throughout the game, at various sources. You can mix these in with your custom abilities to create a build that works perfectly for you.
There are several types of damage, all of which have their strengths and weaknesses. Each damage type also has an associated status effect that will occasionally be inflicted when damage of that type is dealt.
Here is a list of all damage types.
Impact: inflicted by bludgeoning weapons. Can occasionally stagger an enemy, hindering their accuracy and evasion.
Slash: inflicted by blades. Can occasionally cause enemies to bleed.
Puncture: inflicted by thrusting weapons and projectiles. Can occasionally weaken an enemy, reducing their damage output.
Water: inflicted by hydromancy and water-infused weapons. Can occasionally douse the target in water, making them vulnerable to electricity.
Fire: inflicted by pyromancy and fire-infused weapons. Can occasionally light the target on fire.
Earth: inflicted by geomancy and earth-infused weapons. Can occasionally shatter an enemy's defenses, leaving them vulnerable.
Wind: inflicted by aeromancy and wind-infused weapons. Can occasionally disarm the target, weakening them or forcing them to grab their weapon.
Ice: inflicted by cryomancy and ice-infused weapons. Can occasionally freeze the target.
Electric: inflicted by electromancy and lightning-infused weapons. Can occasionally electrify the target, which also shocks nearby enemies.
Toxic: inflicted by poisons. Can occasionally poison the target.
Magic: inflicted by magic. Can occasionally hex the target, making them more vulnerable to status effects.
Light: inflicted by light magic. Can occasionally blind the target, or severely damage eldritch creatures.
Dark: inflicted by dark magic. Can occasionally corrupt the target, which can frequently lead to an early demise.
You can look around at any time. Doing so can allow you to find items, notice interesting people, and get your bearings. Looking around counts as a minor action in combat.
Heavier equipment can increase your level of encumbrance, which can impact your evasion.
If you are below 30% of your max equip load, you'll gain +1 to your evasion dice rolls.
If you're between 30% and 60%, your evasion won't be impacted at all.
If you're over 60%, you'll gain -1 to your evasion rolls.
If you're over 100%, you won't be able to dodge attacks at all.
You slowly heal over time when out of combat. You can accelerate the process with items or abilities. Using items or abilities will also allow you to heal in the middle of combat.
Sometimes, you'll get to choose what to say to people. You can say whatever you want, but be ready to deal with the consequences of your words.
Enemies can be classified as human, beast, or eldritch. Some perks and abilities may affect different classes differently, but that's about it.
You gain skill points whenever you level up. You can use them to increase your attributes and magic skills, or to upgrade your abilities.
If you run out of HP, you are KO'd for the rest of combat, or until someone revives you. While KO'd, you can only perform minor actions. KO'd players will automatically be revived after combat.
KO'd players can be revived in combat with certain items and abilities, or a high roll on a healing action. If a healing action isn't particularly powerful, it'll have no effect on a KO'd player. Players are typically revived with 25% of their HP.

==[The Seer of Ironhaven]== Monstrous sea creatures do exist, and that appear to be lead by a ghost that wears sunglasses and speaks like a surfer dude. Honestly, it's not the weirdest thing that's happened to you on a job. The ghost is likely being summoned and controlled by a sorcerer somewhere in Aekran, and stopping them would more than likely dispel the spirit and destroy the sea monsters. In order to track down this malevolent sorcerer, the emperor has informed you of a seer in Ironhaven who should be able to help you. To get to Ironhaven, however, you'll need to obtain a boat.
You arrived in Ironhaven without incident. Your next priority would be to visit the seer.
The seer informed you that the sunglasses wearing spirit was summoned by a heretical mage known as Gregory. The only way to seal the spirit away is to stop Gregory, but to do so, you'll need to track him down. The seer pointed you in the direction of several creatures Gregory has summoned. Apparently, eliminating them and collecting whatever they leave behind will allow you to pinpoint his location. You set off, prepared for combat.
You fought and defeated Krab, Cracker of Shells, and obtained its soul. Three foes remained before you could track Gregory down.
It was a long fight, but you destroyed Mechacrab, the Cyborg Crustacean. Its core belonged to you now. Only two targets left.
In a rather decisive battle, you slayed Crabbell, Ringer of the Tides and obtained a magical image of its bell. One target remains.
You have vanquished all four of Gregory's champions. The seer should be able to help you locate him using the relics you obtained from them.
You returned the remnants of Gregory's champions to the seer. After you assisted her in dealing with a group of assassins, she began to focus her magical power to locate the heretical mage, Gregory. It will take some time for her to finish, so you have been left with some free time.
[√] Obtain a boat from the docks
[√] Visit the seer
[√] Defeat Mechacrab, the Cyborg Crustacean
[√] Defeat Crabbell, Ringer of the Tides
[√] Defeat Scubaron, Shark Thrower of the Deep

==[Gangbusters]== On the way to Acrus, you were attacked by a group of brigands intending to rob you. One of them managed to escape, but he dropped what appears to be an identification badge depicting a hawk impaled with two swords. Judging by the fact that they have matching badges, they may be an organized faction. There may be value in learning more about them.
Apparently, these bandits are been lurking around Acrus for some time. One of the city guards mentioned one of them being detained. You might be able to use your reputation to question the bandit and learn more.
You cleared out the hideout in Acrus, with the brigand cell leader in tow. In a strange turn of events, some mysterious humanoid bear creature got loose in the building and laid waste to everyone inside. Additionally, it seems to have expressed interest in hunting you down at some point in the future.
You cleared out the hideout along the country road. You learned that this particular band of brigands is a major Crimson dealer in this part of Aekran, and that they hired a hitman to deal with some of their major enemies. All you know about this hitman is that he goes by the name of Ghost.
The last hideout was massacred by the strange bear creature. However, there was a survivor. He pointed you in the direction of the brigand leader's hideout. Apparently, it's along the outskirts of Ironhaven. You set off, hoping he hasn't relocated recently.

==[Magical Artifacts]== You happened upon a mysterious fellow in the sewers of Acrus, carrying an unusual relic. He mentioned that there are two other relics somewhere in Aekran that, when brought together, would lead their holder to an ancient ruin filled with unimaginable treasures. You decided to keep that in mind, just in case.
Turns out that mysterious fellow was a power hungry megalomaniac known as Geralt of Nivea, and the story he told was only partially true. Whoever holds all of the relics will apparently gain an incredible power, enough to make taking over the Aekranian empire a very real possibility. You prevented Geralt from obtaining more of the relics, and even relieved him of one of them. One relic remains unaccounted for.
[2/3] Obtain the three relics
==[Haunting Visions]== You were presented with a strange vision one night before you fell asleep. You don't know why, you don't know the meaning of the image, and y̭͙̹̱̥͉̕ͅo̝͈̥͉̦̜͝u̵̫̻̩͓̖ ̬̘̫̩͖ͅd̯͓̟͇̼̤o͍̜͇͕̦ṉ̬̰͓'̲̹̰͙̤̟t̫̰̞̥̟ ̗̱r̰̘̝̬̰͡ec̯̙̦o̡g͉͠n̪̹̼̮i̘̦̙͇͖̯z̳̻͈͇ͅe̹͟ ̼̤̥͔t̝̭͍̞̻͕͔h̸͍̜ę̖̩̭͚̻̞̝ ̴ḇ̡̙̩̼̹̪o̥͇̺̞͈d̜̪̠͕̻͔͝i͍͙͠e̳̳͓̞͉s̶̙͚ ͚̥ͅi̡͖̠̠ṉ͖̠ ̴͚̥̱ţ̩̘̯he̞͕̰ ҉wa̷̠̘͉͖̹̞̤t̝̠̬̯͓̩e̜̩̤̯̺͔̕r̗͖̖̳̩̺͠.̡̦̩. You decided to get some help from someone more with more knowledge on this subject. Ironhaven was your next stop.
According to the Seer, you are being hunted by an eldritch horror named Kar-nthal the Formless. Apparently, it's trying to drive you insane so it can easily "assimilate" you. The seer is willing to help you track it down, but she needs some supplies. She's given you a list of what you'll need.
You brought the seer the herbs and elixirs she needs, as well as resupplying her with sparkling water. She still requires the heart of an eldritch creature. Any enemy classified as eldritch should do.
[√] Visit the seer at Ironhaven
[√] Obtain the herbs and elixirs
[√] Obtain a case of sparkling water
[ ] Obtain the heart of an eldritch beast
==[An Imperial Contract]==
The emperor of Aekran has contacted you directly. He has requested your presence in Acrus, the capital city of Aekran. You're unsure of what the emperor is asking of you, but completing a contract for him would not only pay well, but would also vastly improve your reputation. On your way to Acrus, however, you were ambushed by unknown assailants. You'll have to get through them before you can get to Acrus.
Your meeting with the emperor was interesting. He informed you of an unusual rumor of monstrous sea creatures attacking people and dragging them into the sea, never to be seen again. He has asked you to investigate this matter and, if the rumors are true, put a stop to it.
You engaged a bizarre sea creature in combat and have slain it. Whatever it is, it doesn't seem like a naturally occurring creature. This thing was created by someone, somehow. Not only that, but you encountered a ghost wearing sunglasses that wants you dead. You have decided to tell the emperor what happened on the shore.
The emperor directed you toward the town of Ironhaven. A seer lives there, and she should be able to help you deal with the sunglasses-wearing ghost.
Your attributes determine your stats. You can increase your attributes by leveling up, equipping powerful gear, and by utilizing training halls in towns.

==[Pyromancy]==

defensive wards.

Here is a list of all stats.
==[HP]==
Your hit points. These decrease as you take damage. If you run out of HP, you get KO'd.

==[Mana]==
Mana is used to cast spells and use active abilities. You regenerate some of your mana every turn.

Your carrying capacity determines how many items you can carry on your person. Heavier items take up more space. This is a separate stat from equip load, so having a full inventory won't affect your ability to dodge.
==[Persuasion score]==
Persuasion score is your ability to talk your way into getting what you want. There are several factors that influence persuasion score, most notably your charisma attribute. Higher persuasion score makes it easier to win people over with words alone.
Weapon proficiencies indicate a higher level of skill in utilizing certain weapon types. If you use a weapon type you're proficient with, the weapon's stats will be enhanced in various ways. There are two ways to obtain weapon proficiencies: class selection, and undergoing weapon training. Every class has their own set of weapon proficiencies, but you can become proficient with other weapon types by finding weapon masters willing to teach you, at which point you'll begin a personal side quest to become proficient in a new weapon type.
Every turn in combat, each player gets to take a major action and a minor action. Major actions are things like attacking enemies, healing allies, and using items.

If you choose to take a minor action, your major action will be slightly weakened, so there's value in only taking a major action. You can also take two minor actions at once, if you so choose.

KO'd players will automatically be revived with 10% of their max HP at the end of combat. There are other means of reviving players in the middle of battle, though they require abilities, items, or particularly effective healing attempts.
The damage players inflict is dependent on the strength of their weapon, the result of their attack dice rolls, and the creativity of their attack. Your weapon's attack stat is the minimum amount of damage the weapon can deal, assuming you get an average dice roll and perform a basic attack. Putting more effort and creativity into your attacks increases the damage of your attack, up to double your weapon's attack stat. High dice rolls can further enhance your damage.
Blocking can be performed as a minor action. Doing so will grant you an amount of block that depends on your weapons' defensive value and the outcome of a dice roll. Block functions as damage absorption; you'll lose block before you lose HP.
Whenever you perform something significant, you gain XP. When you gain enough XP, you level up. Leveling up allows you to enhance your attributes and, occasionally, learn a new ability. You can learn a new ability every 5 levels. There is no level cap.

==[The Seer of Ironhaven]== Monstrous sea creatures do exist, and that appear to be lead by a ghost that wears sunglasses and speaks like a surfer dude. Honestly, it's not the weirdest thing that's happened to you on a job. The ghost is likely being summoned and controlled by a sorcerer somewhere in Aekran, and stopping them would more than likely dispel the spirit and destroy the sea monsters. In order to track down this malevolent sorcerer, the emperor has informed you of a seer in Ironhaven who should be able to help you. To get to Ironhaven, however, you'll need to obtain a boat.
You arrived in Ironhaven without incident. Your next priority would be to visit the seer.
The seer informed you that the sunglasses wearing spirit was summoned by a heretical mage known as Gregory. The only way to seal the spirit away is to stop Gregory, but to do so, you'll need to track him down. The seer pointed you in the direction of several creatures Gregory has summoned. Apparently, eliminating them and collecting whatever they leave behind will allow you to pinpoint his location. You set off, prepared for combat.
You fought and defeated Krab, Cracker of Shells, and obtained its soul. Three foes remained before you could track Gregory down.
It was a long fight, but you destroyed Mechacrab, the Cyborg Crustacean. Its core belonged to you now. Only two targets left.
In a rather decisive battle, you slayed Crabbell, Ringer of the Tides and obtained a magical image of its bell. One target remains.
You have vanquished all four of Gregory's champions. The seer should be able to help you locate him using the relics you obtained from them.
You returned the remnants of Gregory's champions to the seer. After you assisted her in dealing with a group of assassins, she began to focus her magical power to locate the heretical mage, Gregory. It will take some time for her to finish, so you have been left with some free time.

[√] Visit the seer
[√] Defeat Mechacrab, the Cyborg Crustacean

==[Gangbusters]== On the way to Acrus, you were attacked by a group of brigands intending to rob you. One of them managed to escape, but he dropped what appears to be an identification badge depicting a hawk impaled with two swords. Judging by the fact that they have matching badges, they may be an organized faction. There may be value in learning more about them.
Apparently, these bandits are been lurking around Acrus for some time. One of the city guards mentioned one of them being detained. You might be able to use your reputation to question the bandit and learn more.
You cleared out the hideout in Acrus, with the brigand cell leader in tow. In a strange turn of events, some mysterious humanoid bear creature got loose in the building and laid waste to everyone inside. Additionally, it seems to have expressed interest in hunting you down at some point in the future.
You cleared out the hideout along the country road. You learned that this particular band of brigands is a major Crimson dealer in this part of Aekran, and that they hired a hitman to deal with some of their major enemies. All you know about this hitman is that he goes by the name of Ghost.
The last hideout was massacred by the strange bear creature. However, there was a survivor. He pointed you in the direction of the brigand leader's hideout. Apparently, it's along the outskirts of Ironhaven. You set off, hoping he hasn't relocated recently.

==[Magical Artifacts]== You happened upon a mysterious fellow in the sewers of Acrus, carrying an unusual relic. He mentioned that there are two other relics somewhere in Aekran that, when brought together, would lead their holder to an ancient ruin filled with unimaginable treasures. You decided to keep that in mind, just in case.
Turns out that mysterious fellow was a power hungry megalomaniac known as Geralt of Nivea, and the story he told was only partially true. Whoever holds all of the relics will apparently gain an incredible power, enough to make taking over the Aekranian empire a very real possibility. You prevented Geralt from obtaining more of the relics, and even relieved him of one of them. One relic remains unaccounted for.
[2/3] Obtain the three relics
==[Haunting Visions]== You were presented with a strange vision one night before you fell asleep. You don't know why, you don't know the meaning of the image, and y̭͙̹̱̥͉̕ͅo̝͈̥͉̦̜͝u̵̫̻̩͓̖ ̬̘̫̩͖ͅd̯͓̟͇̼̤o͍̜͇͕̦ṉ̬̰͓'̲̹̰͙̤̟t̫̰̞̥̟ ̗̱r̰̘̝̬̰͡ec̯̙̦o̡g͉͠n̪̹̼̮i̘̦̙͇͖̯z̳̻͈͇ͅe̹͟ ̼̤̥͔t̝̭͍̞̻͕͔h̸͍̜ę̖̩̭͚̻̞̝ ̴ḇ̡̙̩̼̹̪o̥͇̺̞͈d̜̪̠͕̻͔͝i͍͙͠e̳̳͓̞͉s̶̙͚ ͚̥ͅi̡͖̠̠ṉ͖̠ ̴͚̥̱ţ̩̘̯he̞͕̰ ҉wa̷̠̘͉͖̹̞̤t̝̠̬̯͓̩e̜̩̤̯̺͔̕r̗͖̖̳̩̺͠.̡̦̩. You decided to get some help from someone more with more knowledge on this subject. Ironhaven was your next stop.
According to the Seer, you are being hunted by an eldritch horror named Kar-nthal the Formless. Apparently, it's trying to drive you insane so it can easily "assimilate" you. The seer is willing to help you track it down, but she needs some supplies. She's given you a list of what you'll need.
You brought the seer the herbs and elixirs she needs, as well as resupplying her with sparkling water. She still requires the heart of an eldritch creature. Any enemy classified as eldritch should do.
[√] Visit the seer at Ironhaven
[√] Obtain the herbs and elixirs
[√] Obtain a case of sparkling water
[ ] Obtain the heart of an eldritch beast
==[An Imperial Contract]==
The emperor of Aekran has contacted you directly. He has requested your presence in Acrus, the capital city of Aekran. You're unsure of what the emperor is asking of you, but completing a contract for him would not only pay well, but would also vastly improve your reputation. On your way to Acrus, however, you were ambushed by unknown assailants. You'll have to get through them before you can get to Acrus.
Your meeting with the emperor was interesting. He informed you of an unusual rumor of monstrous sea creatures attacking people and dragging them into the sea, never to be seen again. He has asked you to investigate this matter and, if the rumors are true, put a stop to it.
You engaged a bizarre sea creature in combat and have slain it. Whatever it is, it doesn't seem like a naturally occurring creature. This thing was created by someone, somehow. Not only that, but you encountered a ghost wearing sunglasses that wants you dead. You have decided to tell the emperor what happened on the shore.
The emperor directed you toward the town of Ironhaven. A seer lives there, and she should be able to help you deal with the sunglasses-wearing ghost.
Your attributes determine your stats. You can increase your attributes by leveling up, equipping powerful gear, and by utilizing training halls in towns. Your basic attributes determine your basic stats, while your magic attributes affect your ability to wield different types of magic.

=====[Magic stats]=====
==[Magic]==
Your basic knowledge of magic. It primarily affects basic magic spells, but has a slight influence on all other types of magic.
==[Hydromancy]==
Your knowledge of water magic. Water-based spells are highly versatile and can be used in offensive and defensive roles.
==[Pyromancy]==
Your knowledge of fire magic. Fire-based spells are primarily offensive, dealing high damage and immolating targets.
==[Geomancy]==
Your knowledge of earth magic. Earth-based spells have strong defensive capabilities, while also being useful attacks.
==[Aeromancy]==
Your knowledge of wind magic. Wind-based spells can be used in several ways, from enhancing mobility to breaking the enemy's formation.
==[Cryomancy]==
Your knowledge of ice magic. Ice-based spells can take the form of powerful attacks or inexorable
defensive wards.
==[Electromancy]==
Your knowledge of lightning magic. Lightning-based spells have excellent attack power, and synergize well with water magic.
==[Necromancy]==
Your knowledge of necromancy. Necromancers are able to reanimate the dead, as well as create deadly
poisons and toxins.
==[Polymancy]==
Your knowledge of shapeshifting magic. Polymorphs are highly respected in combat for their adaptability and quick thinking.
==[Light magic]==
Your knowledge of light magic. Light-based spells are primarily used to ward off demonic creatures and heal wounds.
==[Dark magic]==
Your knowledge of dark magic. Darkness-based spells are a seldom used type of magic, as their use is forbidden in several parts of the world.
Your stats are an indication of how powerful you are. You want them to be as high as possible. Your stats primarily increase as you level up your attributes, though there are other means of enhancing your stats.
Here is a list of all stats.
==[HP]==
Your hit points. These decrease as you take damage. If you run out of HP, you get KO'd.
==[Damage resistances]==
Damage resistances indicate a percentage reduction to the damage you take. Most resistances are divided into the various damage types. One point of damage resistance reduces incoming damage by 1%.
==[Defenses]==
Defenses indicate a static reduction to the damage you take. Most defenses are divided into the various damage types. One point of defense reduces incoming damage by one point.
==[Status resistances]==
Status resistances indicate your ability to resist status effects applied to you. Status resistances are divided into vitality status resistance and endurance status resistance. Higher status resistance reduces the chance of you being afflicted with a status effect, as well as the potency of the status effect if you do get afflicted.
==[Equip load]==
Your equip load measures how heavy your equipped gear can be. As you get closer to the maximum, your evasion rolls will be lowered, and if you go over your maximum equip load, you won't be able to evade attacks at all.
==[Speed]==
Speed determines when in each turn you'll be able to take your action. Raising your speed will allow you take your actions sooner in the turn.
==[Mana]==
Mana is used to cast spells and use active abilities. You regenerate some of your mana every turn.
==[Inventory capacity]==
Your carrying capacity determines how many items you can carry on your person. Heavier items take up more space. This is a separate stat from equip load, so having a full inventory won't affect your ability to dodge.
==[Persuasion score]==
Persuasion score is your ability to talk your way into getting what you want. There are several factors that influence persuasion score, most notably your charisma attribute. Higher persuasion score makes it easier to win people over with words alone.
Weapon proficiencies indicate a higher level of skill in utilizing certain weapon types. If you use a weapon type you're proficient with, the weapon's stats will be enhanced in various ways. There are two ways to obtain weapon proficiencies: class selection, and undergoing weapon training. Every class has their own set of weapon proficiencies, but you can become proficient with other weapon types by finding weapon masters willing to teach you, at which point you'll begin a personal side quest to become proficient in a new weapon type.
Every turn in combat, each player gets to take a major action and a minor action. Major actions are things like attacking enemies, healing allies, and using items. Minor actions are things like searching containers, talking to people, and looking around. If you choose to take a minor action, your major action will be slightly weakened, so there's value in only taking a major action. You can also take two minor actions at once, if you so choose.
The order in which units take their turn is determined by their speed and the results of a dice roll. Your turn priority is your speed + (1 x D6). Units with the highest turn priority go first, and units with the lowest go last. Turn order will be listed on every update. If a player doesn't take their action in an update, their action that turn will be skipped.
When a player's HP reaches zero, they get knocked out. KO'd players can only perform minor actions, and therefor can't heal allies or attack enemies. Players cannot be KO'd outside of combat.
KO'd players will automatically be revived with 10% of their max HP at the end of combat. There are other means of reviving players in the middle of battle, though they require abilities, items, or particularly effective healing attempts.
The damage players inflict is dependent on the strength of their weapon, the result of their attack dice rolls, and the creativity of their attack. Your weapon's attack stat is the minimum amount of damage the weapon can deal, assuming you get an average dice roll and perform a basic attack. Putting more effort and creativity into your attacks increases the damage of your attack, up to double your weapon's attack stat. High dice rolls can further enhance your damage.
Blocking can be performed as a minor action. Doing so will grant you an amount of block that depends on your weapons' defensive value and the outcome of a dice roll. Block functions as damage absorption; you'll lose block before you lose HP.
Whenever you perform something significant, you gain XP. When you gain enough XP, you level up. Leveling up allows you to enhance your attributes and, occasionally, learn a new ability. You can learn a new ability every 5 levels. There is no level cap.
Every 5 levels grants you the ability to learn a new ability. When this happens, you can create your own ability to obtain. Do note that the ability's strength must be reasonable for your current level, and if your ability is too strong, it may have to be nerfed. It's also recommended that your abilities thematically fit with your class, as this will make them stronger.
There are also preset abilities that can be learned throughout the game, at various sources. You can mix these in with your custom abilities to create a build that works perfectly for you.
There are several types of damage, all of which have their strengths and weaknesses. Each damage type also has an associated status effect that will occasionally be inflicted when damage of that type is dealt.
Here is a list of all damage types.
Impact: inflicted by bludgeoning weapons. Can occasionally stagger an enemy, hindering their accuracy and evasion.
Slash: inflicted by blades. Can occasionally cause enemies to bleed.
Puncture: inflicted by thrusting weapons and projectiles. Can occasionally weaken an enemy, reducing their damage output.
Water: inflicted by hydromancy and water-infused weapons. Can occasionally douse the target in water, making them vulnerable to electricity.
Fire: inflicted by pyromancy and fire-infused weapons. Can occasionally light the target on fire.
Earth: inflicted by geomancy and earth-infused weapons. Can occasionally shatter an enemy's defenses, leaving them vulnerable.
Wind: inflicted by aeromancy and wind-infused weapons. Can occasionally disarm the target, weakening them or forcing them to grab their weapon.
Ice: inflicted by cryomancy and ice-infused weapons. Can occasionally freeze the target.
Electric: inflicted by electromancy and lightning-infused weapons. Can occasionally electrify the target, which also shocks nearby enemies.
Toxic: inflicted by poisons. Can occasionally poison the target.
Magic: inflicted by magic. Can occasionally hex the target, making them more vulnerable to status effects.
Light: inflicted by light magic. Can occasionally blind the target, or severely damage eldritch creatures.
Dark: inflicted by dark magic. Can occasionally corrupt the target, which can frequently lead to an early demise.
You can look around at any time. Doing so can allow you to find items, notice interesting people, and get your bearings. Looking around counts as a minor action in combat.
Heavier equipment can increase your level of encumbrance, which can impact your evasion.
If you are below 30% of your max equip load, you'll gain +1 to your evasion dice rolls.
If you're between 30% and 60%, your evasion won't be impacted at all.
If you're over 60%, you'll gain -1 to your evasion rolls.
If you're over 100%, you won't be able to dodge attacks at all.
You slowly heal over time when out of combat. You can accelerate the process with items or abilities. Using items or abilities will also allow you to heal in the middle of combat.
Sometimes, you'll get to choose what to say to people. You can say whatever you want, but be ready to deal with the consequences of your words.
Enemies can be classified as human, beast, or eldritch. Some perks and abilities may affect different classes differently, but that's about it.
You gain skill points whenever you level up. You can use them to increase your attributes and magic skills, or to upgrade your abilities.
If you run out of HP, you are KO'd for the rest of combat, or until someone revives you. While KO'd, you can only perform minor actions. KO'd players will automatically be revived after combat.
KO'd players can be revived in combat with certain items and abilities, or a high roll on a healing action. If a healing action isn't particularly powerful, it'll have no effect on a KO'd player. Players are typically revived with 25% of their HP.

"Do we want to be the mediocre brimstone boy, or do we want to be the more-than-enough brimstone man?" - Northernlion
I quickly scan the area for any more threats.
"Who on earth would...no, more like what...Oh no."
Suddenly I remember the yellow monster from the old hideout. Crapbaskets.
If you've met TehEpicNinja9001, you've met me. Somehow lost the account's password and email. Maybe I'll try and get it back one day. Or maybe not.
Apparently, if you put these in your signature, people will click them. Help me grow my Pokemon dudes!
You allocate another TP to Regeneratos Ballad and enter the hut, approaching the man.
"I don't... I don't think I'm okay..." he mutters.
You keep your weapon ready, just in case.
"It was horrible... I barely even had time to register what was happening." He shudders in horror. "It just kicked the door down and wiped everyone out... I've never seen that much blood in my life."
"You've seen it, too? You've... you've got to help me! Please, don't let that thing find me!"
Morgan takes a closer look at some of the bodies. He notes the badges on their chests: a hawk impaled by two swords.
"Aren't these the guys you were hunting?" he asks.
"I believe so," Seymour replies.
"You're trying to take us out?" the remaining brigand says. "P-please, don't hurt me! I'll tell you anything you want to know about them!"
The man is unarmed. He seems fully willing to cooperate so long as you don't throw him to the monster.

Gain access to a Tune Gauge, which fuels musical auras. You can switch auras as a minor action, and start with 1 TP (Tune Point). Each Aura has a different TP cost, so choose wisely.

Current location:
Woods outside of Acrus
Current quests:
Monstrous sea creatures do exist, and that appear to be lead by a ghost that wears sunglasses and speaks like a surfer dude. Honestly, it's not the weirdest thing that's happened to you on a job. The ghost is likely being summoned and controlled by a sorcerer somewhere in Aekran, and stopping them would more than likely dispel the spirit and destroy the sea monsters. In order to track down this malevolent sorcerer, the emperor has informed you of a seer in Ironhaven who should be able to help you. To get to Ironhaven, however, you'll need to obtain a boat.
You arrived in Ironhaven without incident. Your next priority would be to visit the seer.
The seer informed you that the sunglasses wearing spirit was summoned by a heretical mage known as Gregory. The only way to seal the spirit away is to stop Gregory, but to do so, you'll need to track him down. The seer pointed you in the direction of several creatures Gregory has summoned. Apparently, eliminating them and collecting whatever they leave behind will allow you to pinpoint his location. You set off, prepared for combat.
You fought and defeated Krab, Cracker of Shells, and obtained its soul. Three foes remained before you could track Gregory down.
It was a long fight, but you destroyed Mechacrab, the Cyborg Crustacean. Its core belonged to you now. Only two targets left.
In a rather decisive battle, you slayed Crabbell, Ringer of the Tides and obtained a magical image of its bell. One target remains.
You have vanquished all four of Gregory's champions. The seer should be able to help you locate him using the relics you obtained from them.
You returned the remnants of Gregory's champions to the seer. After you assisted her in dealing with a group of assassins, she began to focus her magical power to locate the heretical mage, Gregory. It will take some time for her to finish, so you have been left with some free time.

On the way to Acrus, you were attacked by a group of brigands intending to rob you. One of them managed to escape, but he dropped what appears to be an identification badge depicting a hawk impaled with two swords. Judging by the fact that they have matching badges, they may be an organized faction. There may be value in learning more about them.
Apparently, these bandits are been lurking around Acrus for some time. One of the city guards mentioned one of them being detained. You might be able to use your reputation to question the bandit and learn more.
You cleared out the hideout in Acrus, with the brigand cell leader in tow. In a strange turn of events, some mysterious humanoid bear creature got loose in the building and laid waste to everyone inside. Additionally, it seems to have expressed interest in hunting you down at some point in the future.
You cleared out the hideout along the country road. You learned that this particular band of brigands is a major Crimson dealer in this part of Aekran, and that they hired a hitman to deal with some of their major enemies. All you know about this hitman is that he goes by the name of Ghost.

You happened upon a mysterious fellow in the sewers of Acrus, carrying an unusual relic. He mentioned that there are two other relics somewhere in Aekran that, when brought together, would lead their holder to an ancient ruin filled with unimaginable treasures. You decided to keep that in mind, just in case.
Turns out that mysterious fellow was a power hungry megalomaniac known as Geralt of Nivea, and the story he told was only partially true. Whoever holds all of the relics will apparently gain an incredible power, enough to make taking over the Aekranian empire a very real possibility. You prevented Geralt from obtaining more of the relics, and even relieved him of one of them. One relic remains unaccounted for.
[2/3] Obtain the three relics
==[Haunting Visions]==
You were presented with a strange vision one night before you fell asleep. You don't know why, you don't know the meaning of the image, and y̭͙̹̱̥͉̕ͅo̝͈̥͉̦̜͝u̵̫̻̩͓̖ ̬̘̫̩͖ͅd̯͓̟͇̼̤o͍̜͇͕̦ṉ̬̰͓'̲̹̰͙̤̟t̫̰̞̥̟ ̗̱r̰̘̝̬̰͡ec̯̙̦o̡g͉͠n̪̹̼̮i̘̦̙͇͖̯z̳̻͈͇ͅe̹͟ ̼̤̥͔t̝̭͍̞̻͕͔h̸͍̜ę̖̩̭͚̻̞̝ ̴ḇ̡̙̩̼̹̪o̥͇̺̞͈d̜̪̠͕̻͔͝i͍͙͠e̳̳͓̞͉s̶̙͚ ͚̥ͅi̡͖̠̠ṉ͖̠ ̴͚̥̱ţ̩̘̯he̞͕̰ ҉wa̷̠̘͉͖̹̞̤t̝̠̬̯͓̩e̜̩̤̯̺͔̕r̗͖̖̳̩̺͠.̡̦̩. You decided to get some help from someone more with more knowledge on this subject. Ironhaven was your next stop.
According to the Seer, you are being hunted by an eldritch horror named Kar-nthal the Formless. Apparently, it's trying to drive you insane so it can easily "assimilate" you. The seer is willing to help you track it down, but she needs some supplies. She's given you a list of what you'll need.
You brought the seer the herbs and elixirs she needs, as well as resupplying her with sparkling water. She still requires the heart of an eldritch creature. Any enemy classified as eldritch should do.

The emperor of Aekran has contacted you directly. He has requested your presence in Acrus, the capital city of Aekran. You're unsure of what the emperor is asking of you, but completing a contract for him would not only pay well, but would also vastly improve your reputation. On your way to Acrus, however, you were ambushed by unknown assailants. You'll have to get through them before you can get to Acrus.
Your meeting with the emperor was interesting. He informed you of an unusual rumor of monstrous sea creatures attacking people and dragging them into the sea, never to be seen again. He has asked you to investigate this matter and, if the rumors are true, put a stop to it.
You engaged a bizarre sea creature in combat and have slain it. Whatever it is, it doesn't seem like a naturally occurring creature. This thing was created by someone, somehow. Not only that, but you encountered a ghost wearing sunglasses that wants you dead. You have decided to tell the emperor what happened on the shore.
The emperor directed you toward the town of Ironhaven. A seer lives there, and she should be able to help you deal with the sunglasses-wearing ghost.

=====[Magic stats]=====
==[Magic]==
Your basic knowledge of magic. It primarily affects basic magic spells, but has a slight influence on all other types of magic.
==[Hydromancy]==
Your knowledge of water magic. Water-based spells are highly versatile and can be used in offensive and defensive roles.
==[Pyromancy]==
Your knowledge of fire magic. Fire-based spells are primarily offensive, dealing high damage and immolating targets.
==[Geomancy]==
Your knowledge of earth magic. Earth-based spells have strong defensive capabilities, while also being useful attacks.
==[Aeromancy]==
Your knowledge of wind magic. Wind-based spells can be used in several ways, from enhancing mobility to breaking the enemy's formation.
==[Cryomancy]==
Your knowledge of ice magic. Ice-based spells can take the form of powerful attacks or inexorable
defensive wards.
==[Electromancy]==
Your knowledge of lightning magic. Lightning-based spells have excellent attack power, and synergize well with water magic.
==[Necromancy]==
Your knowledge of necromancy. Necromancers are able to reanimate the dead, as well as create deadly
poisons and toxins.
==[Polymancy]==
Your knowledge of shapeshifting magic. Polymorphs are highly respected in combat for their adaptability and quick thinking.
==[Light magic]==
Your knowledge of light magic. Light-based spells are primarily used to ward off demonic creatures and heal wounds.
==[Dark magic]==
Your knowledge of dark magic. Darkness-based spells are a seldom used type of magic, as their use is forbidden in several parts of the world.
Here is a list of all stats.
==[HP]==
Your hit points. These decrease as you take damage. If you run out of HP, you get KO'd.
==[Damage resistances]==
Damage resistances indicate a percentage reduction to the damage you take. Most resistances are divided into the various damage types. One point of damage resistance reduces incoming damage by 1%.
==[Defenses]==
Defenses indicate a static reduction to the damage you take. Most defenses are divided into the various damage types. One point of defense reduces incoming damage by one point.
==[Status resistances]==
Status resistances indicate your ability to resist status effects applied to you. Status resistances are divided into vitality status resistance and endurance status resistance. Higher status resistance reduces the chance of you being afflicted with a status effect, as well as the potency of the status effect if you do get afflicted.
==[Equip load]==
Your equip load measures how heavy your equipped gear can be. As you get closer to the maximum, your evasion rolls will be lowered, and if you go over your maximum equip load, you won't be able to evade attacks at all.
==[Speed]==
Speed determines when in each turn you'll be able to take your action. Raising your speed will allow you take your actions sooner in the turn.
==[Mana]==
Mana is used to cast spells and use active abilities. You regenerate some of your mana every turn.
==[Inventory capacity]==
Your carrying capacity determines how many items you can carry on your person. Heavier items take up more space. This is a separate stat from equip load, so having a full inventory won't affect your ability to dodge.
==[Persuasion score]==
Persuasion score is your ability to talk your way into getting what you want. There are several factors that influence persuasion score, most notably your charisma attribute. Higher persuasion score makes it easier to win people over with words alone.
The order in which units take their turn is determined by their speed and the results of a dice roll. Your turn priority is your speed + (1 x D6). Units with the highest turn priority go first, and units with the lowest go last. Turn order will be listed on every update. If a player doesn't take their action in an update, their action that turn will be skipped.
KO'd players will automatically be revived with 10% of their max HP at the end of combat. There are other means of reviving players in the middle of battle, though they require abilities, items, or particularly effective healing attempts.
There are also preset abilities that can be learned throughout the game, at various sources. You can mix these in with your custom abilities to create a build that works perfectly for you.
Here is a list of all damage types.
Impact: inflicted by bludgeoning weapons. Can occasionally stagger an enemy, hindering their accuracy and evasion.
Slash: inflicted by blades. Can occasionally cause enemies to bleed.
Puncture: inflicted by thrusting weapons and projectiles. Can occasionally weaken an enemy, reducing their damage output.
Water: inflicted by hydromancy and water-infused weapons. Can occasionally douse the target in water, making them vulnerable to electricity.
Fire: inflicted by pyromancy and fire-infused weapons. Can occasionally light the target on fire.
Earth: inflicted by geomancy and earth-infused weapons. Can occasionally shatter an enemy's defenses, leaving them vulnerable.
Wind: inflicted by aeromancy and wind-infused weapons. Can occasionally disarm the target, weakening them or forcing them to grab their weapon.
Ice: inflicted by cryomancy and ice-infused weapons. Can occasionally freeze the target.
Electric: inflicted by electromancy and lightning-infused weapons. Can occasionally electrify the target, which also shocks nearby enemies.
Toxic: inflicted by poisons. Can occasionally poison the target.
Magic: inflicted by magic. Can occasionally hex the target, making them more vulnerable to status effects.
Light: inflicted by light magic. Can occasionally blind the target, or severely damage eldritch creatures.
Dark: inflicted by dark magic. Can occasionally corrupt the target, which can frequently lead to an early demise.
If you are below 30% of your max equip load, you'll gain +1 to your evasion dice rolls.
If you're between 30% and 60%, your evasion won't be impacted at all.
If you're over 60%, you'll gain -1 to your evasion rolls.
If you're over 100%, you won't be able to dodge attacks at all.
KO'd players can be revived in combat with certain items and abilities, or a high roll on a healing action. If a healing action isn't particularly powerful, it'll have no effect on a KO'd player. Players are typically revived with 25% of their HP.

Hi! This is me, hello!
I'm Vevos! HIS INNER DEMON.
Get out! I'm Alice!
Hey! I'm Draco!
Please help my Pokemon grow: http://pfq.me/GoldHero101
While Zephil interrogates the guy, I go on the lookout, just in case Ghost or the bear-man decides to show up.
I pull out one of my vials of the red substance.
"Any idea what this is or where it comes from?" (To be honest, if this was answered pages back, I've forgotten.)
If you've met TehEpicNinja9001, you've met me. Somehow lost the account's password and email. Maybe I'll try and get it back one day. Or maybe not.
Apparently, if you put these in your signature, people will click them. Help me grow my Pokemon dudes!
You show him the letter and question him.
"Oh, that guy... Some creepy assassin the boss hired to deal with people he didn't like. I've never even seen him before, but apparently, he's not someone you want to mess with. I heard he killed a king in some far off land."
You go on lookout, watching for any approaching dangers. You notice nothing unusual.
"Really, you've never heard of Crimson before? It's a kind of drug. Makes you feel invincible. Of course, it doesn't actually make you invincible, but the feeling's nice. We're a band of Crimson dealers. It's not technically legal in Aekran, but, you know..."
He makes a gesture with his hand that says, "money, dear boy".
The Crafter notices nothing dangerous on his watch. The remaining brigand still seems open to answering questions.

Gain access to a Tune Gauge, which fuels musical auras. You can switch auras as a minor action, and start with 1 TP (Tune Point). Each Aura has a different TP cost, so choose wisely. The TP does not get consumed, so the effects are typically weaker than just using a skill. Also allows you to fuel into an aura to enhance its effects.
Regeneratos Ballad: 1 TP
Each party member recovers (1 x D4 + Zephil's persuasion score divided by 10) HP each combat turn.
Hercules' Sonnet: 1 TP
Each party member gets a +2 to their attack rolls. NOTE: Does not have any effect if they critical fail or succeed.
Anthem of Blood: 1 TP
All attacks from the party (including Zephil's) have an additional 10% chance to inflict bleeding.

Current location:
Woods outside of Acrus
Current quests:
Monstrous sea creatures do exist, and that appear to be lead by a ghost that wears sunglasses and speaks like a surfer dude. Honestly, it's not the weirdest thing that's happened to you on a job. The ghost is likely being summoned and controlled by a sorcerer somewhere in Aekran, and stopping them would more than likely dispel the spirit and destroy the sea monsters. In order to track down this malevolent sorcerer, the emperor has informed you of a seer in Ironhaven who should be able to help you. To get to Ironhaven, however, you'll need to obtain a boat.
You arrived in Ironhaven without incident. Your next priority would be to visit the seer.
The seer informed you that the sunglasses wearing spirit was summoned by a heretical mage known as Gregory. The only way to seal the spirit away is to stop Gregory, but to do so, you'll need to track him down. The seer pointed you in the direction of several creatures Gregory has summoned. Apparently, eliminating them and collecting whatever they leave behind will allow you to pinpoint his location. You set off, prepared for combat.
You fought and defeated Krab, Cracker of Shells, and obtained its soul. Three foes remained before you could track Gregory down.
It was a long fight, but you destroyed Mechacrab, the Cyborg Crustacean. Its core belonged to you now. Only two targets left.
In a rather decisive battle, you slayed Crabbell, Ringer of the Tides and obtained a magical image of its bell. One target remains.
You have vanquished all four of Gregory's champions. The seer should be able to help you locate him using the relics you obtained from them.
You returned the remnants of Gregory's champions to the seer. After you assisted her in dealing with a group of assassins, she began to focus her magical power to locate the heretical mage, Gregory. It will take some time for her to finish, so you have been left with some free time.

On the way to Acrus, you were attacked by a group of brigands intending to rob you. One of them managed to escape, but he dropped what appears to be an identification badge depicting a hawk impaled with two swords. Judging by the fact that they have matching badges, they may be an organized faction. There may be value in learning more about them.
Apparently, these bandits are been lurking around Acrus for some time. One of the city guards mentioned one of them being detained. You might be able to use your reputation to question the bandit and learn more.
You cleared out the hideout in Acrus, with the brigand cell leader in tow. In a strange turn of events, some mysterious humanoid bear creature got loose in the building and laid waste to everyone inside. Additionally, it seems to have expressed interest in hunting you down at some point in the future.
You cleared out the hideout along the country road. You learned that this particular band of brigands is a major Crimson dealer in this part of Aekran, and that they hired a hitman to deal with some of their major enemies. All you know about this hitman is that he goes by the name of Ghost.

You happened upon a mysterious fellow in the sewers of Acrus, carrying an unusual relic. He mentioned that there are two other relics somewhere in Aekran that, when brought together, would lead their holder to an ancient ruin filled with unimaginable treasures. You decided to keep that in mind, just in case.
Turns out that mysterious fellow was a power hungry megalomaniac known as Geralt of Nivea, and the story he told was only partially true. Whoever holds all of the relics will apparently gain an incredible power, enough to make taking over the Aekranian empire a very real possibility. You prevented Geralt from obtaining more of the relics, and even relieved him of one of them. One relic remains unaccounted for.

You decided to get some help from someone more with more knowledge on this subject. Ironhaven was your next stop.
According to the Seer, you are being hunted by an eldritch horror named Kar-nthal the Formless. Apparently, it's trying to drive you insane so it can easily "assimilate" you. The seer is willing to help you track it down, but she needs some supplies. She's given you a list of what you'll need.
You brought the seer the herbs and elixirs she needs, as well as resupplying her with sparkling water. She still requires the heart of an eldritch creature. Any enemy classified as eldritch should do.

The emperor of Aekran has contacted you directly. He has requested your presence in Acrus, the capital city of Aekran. You're unsure of what the emperor is asking of you, but completing a contract for him would not only pay well, but would also vastly improve your reputation. On your way to Acrus, however, you were ambushed by unknown assailants. You'll have to get through them before you can get to Acrus.
Your meeting with the emperor was interesting. He informed you of an unusual rumor of monstrous sea creatures attacking people and dragging them into the sea, never to be seen again. He has asked you to investigate this matter and, if the rumors are true, put a stop to it.
You engaged a bizarre sea creature in combat and have slain it. Whatever it is, it doesn't seem like a naturally occurring creature. This thing was created by someone, somehow. Not only that, but you encountered a ghost wearing sunglasses that wants you dead. You have decided to tell the emperor what happened on the shore.
The emperor directed you toward the town of Ironhaven. A seer lives there, and she should be able to help you deal with the sunglasses-wearing ghost.

Speed determines when in each turn you'll be able to take your action. Raising your speed will allow you take your actions sooner in the turn.
==[Mana]==
Mana is used to cast spells and use active abilities. You regenerate some of your mana every turn.
==[Inventory capacity]==
Your carrying capacity determines how many items you can carry on your person. Heavier items take up more space. This is a separate stat from equip load, so having a full inventory won't affect your ability to dodge.
==[Persuasion score]==
Persuasion score is your ability to talk your way into getting what you want. There are several factors that influence persuasion score, most notably your charisma attribute. Higher persuasion score makes it easier to win people over with words alone.
The order in which units take their turn is determined by their speed and the results of a dice roll. Your turn priority is your speed + (1 x D6). Units with the highest turn priority go first, and units with the lowest go last. Turn order will be listed on every update. If a player doesn't take their action in an update, their action that turn will be skipped.
KO'd players will automatically be revived with 10% of their max HP at the end of combat. There are other means of reviving players in the middle of battle, though they require abilities, items, or particularly effective healing attempts.
There are also preset abilities that can be learned throughout the game, at various sources. You can mix these in with your custom abilities to create a build that works perfectly for you.
Here is a list of all damage types.
Impact: inflicted by bludgeoning weapons. Can occasionally stagger an enemy, hindering their accuracy and evasion.
Slash: inflicted by blades. Can occasionally cause enemies to bleed.
Puncture: inflicted by thrusting weapons and projectiles. Can occasionally weaken an enemy, reducing their damage output.
Water: inflicted by hydromancy and water-infused weapons. Can occasionally douse the target in water, making them vulnerable to electricity.
Fire: inflicted by pyromancy and fire-infused weapons. Can occasionally light the target on fire.
Earth: inflicted by geomancy and earth-infused weapons. Can occasionally shatter an enemy's defenses, leaving them vulnerable.
Wind: inflicted by aeromancy and wind-infused weapons. Can occasionally disarm the target, weakening them or forcing them to grab their weapon.
Ice: inflicted by cryomancy and ice-infused weapons. Can occasionally freeze the target.
Electric: inflicted by electromancy and lightning-infused weapons. Can occasionally electrify the target, which also shocks nearby enemies.
Toxic: inflicted by poisons. Can occasionally poison the target.
Magic: inflicted by magic. Can occasionally hex the target, making them more vulnerable to status effects.
Light: inflicted by light magic. Can occasionally blind the target, or severely damage eldritch creatures.
Dark: inflicted by dark magic. Can occasionally corrupt the target, which can frequently lead to an early demise.
If you are below 30% of your max equip load, you'll gain +1 to your evasion dice rolls.
If you're between 30% and 60%, your evasion won't be impacted at all.
If you're over 60%, you'll gain -1 to your evasion rolls.
If you're over 100%, you won't be able to dodge attacks at all.
KO'd players can be revived in combat with certain items and abilities, or a high roll on a healing action. If a healing action isn't particularly powerful, it'll have no effect on a KO'd player. Players are typically revived with 25% of their HP.

Hi! This is me, hello!
I'm Vevos! HIS INNER DEMON.
Get out! I'm Alice!
Hey! I'm Draco!
Please help my Pokemon grow: http://pfq.me/GoldHero101
"I guess I haven't. Back where I come from, all the drugs are either plants or powders..."
He's too shaken to be asked about the monster for now, so if we can talk to him later, that'd be optimal. I investigate more of the scene.
If you've met TehEpicNinja9001, you've met me. Somehow lost the account's password and email. Maybe I'll try and get it back one day. Or maybe not.
Apparently, if you put these in your signature, people will click them. Help me grow my Pokemon dudes!
You show him the shipping manifest.
"Yeah, that's where we're sending it all. A couple people didn't pay up, and that's when the boss hired that Ghost guy."
You look around some more. The clearing is modestly sized, and doesn't have much of interest aside from the hut. Aside from a few roaming animals, the only living things in the area are your party and the brigand. You notice a trial of dried blood leading from the door, but it disappears pretty quickly once it reaches the treeline. There are some scorch marks on the outside walls.
"Can I... can I go?" the brigand asks.
Points of interest:
City of Acrus (the capital city of the empire)
Brigand hideout (an underground cave infested with brigands)
Old hut (definitely a brigand hideout) [Everyone is here]
Party (well rested for 14 turns):

Status effects: none
Gain access to a Tune Gauge, which fuels musical auras. You can switch auras as a minor action, and start with 1 TP (Tune Point). Each Aura has a different TP cost, so choose wisely. The TP does not get consumed, so the effects are typically weaker than just using a skill. Also allows you to fuel into an aura to enhance its effects.
Regeneratos Ballad: 1 TP
Each party member recovers (1 x D4 + Zephil's persuasion score divided by 10) HP each combat turn.
Hercules' Sonnet: 1 TP
Each party member gets a +2 to their attack rolls. NOTE: Does not have any effect if they critical fail or succeed.
Anthem of Blood: 1 TP
All attacks from the party (including Zephil's) have an additional 10% chance to inflict bleeding.
Limerick of the Guard: 1 TP
Each party member gets a +2 to their evasion rolls. NOTE: Does not have any effect if they critical fail or succeed.
Breaking Limits (passive)

Current quests:
Monstrous sea creatures do exist, and that appear to be lead by a ghost that wears sunglasses and speaks like a surfer dude. Honestly, it's not the weirdest thing that's happened to you on a job. The ghost is likely being summoned and controlled by a sorcerer somewhere in Aekran, and stopping them would more than likely dispel the spirit and destroy the sea monsters. In order to track down this malevolent sorcerer, the emperor has informed you of a seer in Ironhaven who should be able to help you. To get to Ironhaven, however, you'll need to obtain a boat.
You arrived in Ironhaven without incident. Your next priority would be to visit the seer.
The seer informed you that the sunglasses wearing spirit was summoned by a heretical mage known as Gregory. The only way to seal the spirit away is to stop Gregory, but to do so, you'll need to track him down. The seer pointed you in the direction of several creatures Gregory has summoned. Apparently, eliminating them and collecting whatever they leave behind will allow you to pinpoint his location. You set off, prepared for combat.
You fought and defeated Krab, Cracker of Shells, and obtained its soul. Three foes remained before you could track Gregory down.
It was a long fight, but you destroyed Mechacrab, the Cyborg Crustacean. Its core belonged to you now. Only two targets left.
In a rather decisive battle, you slayed Crabbell, Ringer of the Tides and obtained a magical image of its bell. One target remains.
You have vanquished all four of Gregory's champions. The seer should be able to help you locate him using the relics you obtained from them.
You returned the remnants of Gregory's champions to the seer. After you assisted her in dealing with a group of assassins, she began to focus her magical power to locate the heretical mage, Gregory. It will take some time for her to finish, so you have been left with some free time.

On the way to Acrus, you were attacked by a group of brigands intending to rob you. One of them managed to escape, but he dropped what appears to be an identification badge depicting a hawk impaled with two swords. Judging by the fact that they have matching badges, they may be an organized faction. There may be value in learning more about them.
Apparently, these bandits are been lurking around Acrus for some time. One of the city guards mentioned one of them being detained. You might be able to use your reputation to question the bandit and learn more.
You cleared out the hideout in Acrus, with the brigand cell leader in tow. In a strange turn of events, some mysterious humanoid bear creature got loose in the building and laid waste to everyone inside. Additionally, it seems to have expressed interest in hunting you down at some point in the future.
You cleared out the hideout along the country road. You learned that this particular band of brigands is a major Crimson dealer in this part of Aekran, and that they hired a hitman to deal with some of their major enemies. All you know about this hitman is that he goes by the name of Ghost.

Investigate the brigand hideout along the country road==[Magical Artifacts]==
You happened upon a mysterious fellow in the sewers of Acrus, carrying an unusual relic. He mentioned that there are two other relics somewhere in Aekran that, when brought together, would lead their holder to an ancient ruin filled with unimaginable treasures. You decided to keep that in mind, just in case.
Turns out that mysterious fellow was a power hungry megalomaniac known as Geralt of Nivea, and the story he told was only partially true. Whoever holds all of the relics will apparently gain an incredible power, enough to make taking over the Aekranian empire a very real possibility. You prevented Geralt from obtaining more of the relics, and even relieved him of one of them. One relic remains unaccounted for.

==[Haunting Visions]==
You were presented with a strange vision one night before you fell asleep. You don't know why, you don't know the meaning of the image, and y̭͙̹̱̥͉̕ͅo̝͈̥͉̦̜͝u̵̫̻̩͓̖ ̬̘̫̩͖ͅd̯͓̟͇̼̤o͍̜͇͕̦ṉ̬̰͓'̲̹̰͙̤̟t̫̰̞̥̟ ̗̱r̰̘̝̬̰͡ec̯̙̦o̡g͉͠n̪̹̼̮i̘̦̙͇͖̯z̳̻͈͇ͅe̹͟ ̼̤̥͔t̝̭͍̞̻͕͔h̸͍̜ę̖̩̭͚̻̞̝ ̴ḇ̡̙̩̼̹̪o̥͇̺̞͈d̜̪̠͕̻͔͝i͍͙͠e̳̳͓̞͉s̶̙͚ ͚̥ͅi̡͖̠̠ṉ͖̠ ̴͚̥̱ţ̩̘̯he̞͕̰ ҉wa̷̠̘͉͖̹̞̤t̝̠̬̯͓̩e̜̩̤̯̺͔̕r̗͖̖̳̩̺͠.̡̦̩. You decided to get some help from someone more with more knowledge on this subject. Ironhaven was your next stop.
According to the Seer, you are being hunted by an eldritch horror named Kar-nthal the Formless. Apparently, it's trying to drive you insane so it can easily "assimilate" you. The seer is willing to help you track it down, but she needs some supplies. She's given you a list of what you'll need.
You brought the seer the herbs and elixirs she needs, as well as resupplying her with sparkling water. She still requires the heart of an eldritch creature. Any enemy classified as eldritch should do.
[√]
Visit the seer at Ironhaven[√]
Obtain the herbs and elixirs[√]
Obtain a case of sparkling water[ ] Obtain the heart of an eldritch beast
The emperor of Aekran has contacted you directly. He has requested your presence in Acrus, the capital city of Aekran. You're unsure of what the emperor is asking of you, but completing a contract for him would not only pay well, but would also vastly improve your reputation. On your way to Acrus, however, you were ambushed by unknown assailants. You'll have to get through them before you can get to Acrus.
Your meeting with the emperor was interesting. He informed you of an unusual rumor of monstrous sea creatures attacking people and dragging them into the sea, never to be seen again. He has asked you to investigate this matter and, if the rumors are true, put a stop to it.
You engaged a bizarre sea creature in combat and have slain it. Whatever it is, it doesn't seem like a naturally occurring creature. This thing was created by someone, somehow. Not only that, but you encountered a ghost wearing sunglasses that wants you dead. You have decided to tell the emperor what happened on the shore.
The emperor directed you toward the town of Ironhaven. A seer lives there, and she should be able to help you deal with the sunglasses-wearing ghost.

=====[Magic stats]=====
==[Magic]==
Your basic knowledge of magic. It primarily affects basic magic spells, but has a slight influence on all other types of magic.
==[Hydromancy]==
Your knowledge of water magic. Water-based spells are highly versatile and can be used in offensive and defensive roles.
==[Pyromancy]==
Your knowledge of fire magic. Fire-based spells are primarily offensive, dealing high damage and immolating targets.
==[Geomancy]==
Your knowledge of earth magic. Earth-based spells have strong defensive capabilities, while also being useful attacks.
==[Aeromancy]==
Your knowledge of wind magic. Wind-based spells can be used in several ways, from enhancing mobility to breaking the enemy's formation.
==[Cryomancy]==
Your knowledge of ice magic. Ice-based spells can take the form of powerful attacks or inexorable
defensive wards.
==[Electromancy]==
Your knowledge of lightning magic. Lightning-based spells have excellent attack power, and synergize well with water magic.
==[Necromancy]==
Your knowledge of necromancy. Necromancers are able to reanimate the dead, as well as create deadly
poisons and toxins.
==[Polymancy]==
Your knowledge of shapeshifting magic. Polymorphs are highly respected in combat for their adaptability and quick thinking.
==[Light magic]==
Your knowledge of light magic. Light-based spells are primarily used to ward off demonic creatures and heal wounds.
==[Dark magic]==
Your knowledge of dark magic. Darkness-based spells are a seldom used type of magic, as their use is forbidden in several parts of the world.
Here is a list of all stats.
==[HP]==
Your hit points. These decrease as you take damage. If you run out of HP, you get KO'd.
==[Damage resistances]==
Damage resistances indicate a percentage reduction to the damage you take. Most resistances are divided into the various damage types. One point of damage resistance reduces incoming damage by 1%.
==[Defenses]==
Defenses indicate a static reduction to the damage you take. Most defenses are divided into the various damage types. One point of defense reduces incoming damage by one point.
==[Status resistances]==
Status resistances indicate your ability to resist status effects applied to you. Status resistances are divided into vitality status resistance and endurance status resistance. Higher status resistance reduces the chance of you being afflicted with a status effect, as well as the potency of the status effect if you do get afflicted.
==[Equip load]==
Your equip load measures how heavy your equipped gear can be. As you get closer to the maximum, your evasion rolls will be lowered, and if you go over your maximum equip load, you won't be able to evade attacks at all.
==[Speed]==
Speed determines when in each turn you'll be able to take your action. Raising your speed will allow you take your actions sooner in the turn.
==[Mana]==
Mana is used to cast spells and use active abilities. You regenerate some of your mana every turn.
==[Inventory capacity]==
Your carrying capacity determines how many items you can carry on your person. Heavier items take up more space. This is a separate stat from equip load, so having a full inventory won't affect your ability to dodge.
==[Persuasion score]==
Persuasion score is your ability to talk your way into getting what you want. There are several factors that influence persuasion score, most notably your charisma attribute. Higher persuasion score makes it easier to win people over with words alone.
The order in which units take their turn is determined by their speed and the results of a dice roll. Your turn priority is your speed + (1 x D6). Units with the highest turn priority go first, and units with the lowest go last. Turn order will be listed on every update. If a player doesn't take their action in an update, their action that turn will be skipped.
KO'd players will automatically be revived with 10% of their max HP at the end of combat. There are other means of reviving players in the middle of battle, though they require abilities, items, or particularly effective healing attempts.
There are also preset abilities that can be learned throughout the game, at various sources. You can mix these in with your custom abilities to create a build that works perfectly for you.
Here is a list of all damage types.
Impact: inflicted by bludgeoning weapons. Can occasionally stagger an enemy, hindering their accuracy and evasion.
Slash: inflicted by blades. Can occasionally cause enemies to bleed.
Puncture: inflicted by thrusting weapons and projectiles. Can occasionally weaken an enemy, reducing their damage output.
Water: inflicted by hydromancy and water-infused weapons. Can occasionally douse the target in water, making them vulnerable to electricity.
Fire: inflicted by pyromancy and fire-infused weapons. Can occasionally light the target on fire.
Earth: inflicted by geomancy and earth-infused weapons. Can occasionally shatter an enemy's defenses, leaving them vulnerable.
Wind: inflicted by aeromancy and wind-infused weapons. Can occasionally disarm the target, weakening them or forcing them to grab their weapon.
Ice: inflicted by cryomancy and ice-infused weapons. Can occasionally freeze the target.
Electric: inflicted by electromancy and lightning-infused weapons. Can occasionally electrify the target, which also shocks nearby enemies.
Toxic: inflicted by poisons. Can occasionally poison the target.
Magic: inflicted by magic. Can occasionally hex the target, making them more vulnerable to status effects.
Light: inflicted by light magic. Can occasionally blind the target, or severely damage eldritch creatures.
Dark: inflicted by dark magic. Can occasionally corrupt the target, which can frequently lead to an early demise.
If you are below 30% of your max equip load, you'll gain +1 to your evasion dice rolls.
If you're between 30% and 60%, your evasion won't be impacted at all.
If you're over 60%, you'll gain -1 to your evasion rolls.
If you're over 100%, you won't be able to dodge attacks at all.
KO'd players can be revived in combat with certain items and abilities, or a high roll on a healing action. If a healing action isn't particularly powerful, it'll have no effect on a KO'd player. Players are typically revived with 25% of their HP.

"Couple more things... So this list of names is the ones who are meant to be killed? And promise me this: don't tell anyone we had this conversation." I smile at him. "We'll deal with these problems. Don't worry."

My Characters
Hi! This is me, hello!
I'm Vevos! HIS INNER DEMON.
Get out! I'm Alice!
Hey! I'm Draco!
Please help my Pokemon grow: http://pfq.me/GoldHero101
I wait until everyone is done questioning him.
"You can go now...but in case you didn't realize yet, this kind of crap is what happens to gangs who stray too far out of the kiddie pool. You'd best drop your badge and stay as far away from this organization as possible, for your sake. Understand?"
If you've met TehEpicNinja9001, you've met me. Somehow lost the account's password and email. Maybe I'll try and get it back one day. Or maybe not.
Apparently, if you put these in your signature, people will click them. Help me grow my Pokemon dudes!
I stay on the lookout.
((OOC: I've got nothing to do here. I'm just writing this to avoid getting kicked for inactivity))
I hope that the brigand says “yes” (for their sake) and make sure that no-one has walked in on us.
"Well, some of them. The ones that are crossed out are the ones who paid up."
"Don't worry, I'm not telling anyone. Thanks a lot. I owe you my life."
"Oh, I'm done with these guys." He throws his badge onto the ground to punctuate his statement. "I'm getting out of here. Maybe I'll open a bakery..."
You stay on lookout.
You're in the clear.
"Oh, before I go," the ex-brigand says, "I can help you find the leader of this whole operation."
"Where is he?" Morgan asks.
The ex-brigand marks a location on your map. It's somewhere on the outskirts of Ironhaven.
"That's his latest hideout. I think he might still be there."
"Well, thanks," Zephil says.
The ex-brigand then leaves the area.

Gain access to a Tune Gauge, which fuels musical auras. You can switch auras as a minor action, and start with 1 TP (Tune Point). Each Aura has a different TP cost, so choose wisely.

Regeneratos Ballad: 1 TP
Each party member recovers (1 x D4 + Zephil's persuasion score divided by 10) HP each combat turn.
Hercules' Sonnet: 1 TP
Each party member gets a +2 to their attack rolls. NOTE: Does not have any effect if they critical fail or succeed.

Monstrous sea creatures do exist, and that appear to be lead by a ghost that wears sunglasses and speaks like a surfer dude. Honestly, it's not the weirdest thing that's happened to you on a job. The ghost is likely being summoned and controlled by a sorcerer somewhere in Aekran, and stopping them would more than likely dispel the spirit and destroy the sea monsters. In order to track down this malevolent sorcerer, the emperor has informed you of a seer in Ironhaven who should be able to help you. To get to Ironhaven, however, you'll need to obtain a boat.
You arrived in Ironhaven without incident. Your next priority would be to visit the seer.
The seer informed you that the sunglasses wearing spirit was summoned by a heretical mage known as Gregory. The only way to seal the spirit away is to stop Gregory, but to do so, you'll need to track him down. The seer pointed you in the direction of several creatures Gregory has summoned. Apparently, eliminating them and collecting whatever they leave behind will allow you to pinpoint his location. You set off, prepared for combat.
You fought and defeated Krab, Cracker of Shells, and obtained its soul. Three foes remained before you could track Gregory down.
It was a long fight, but you destroyed Mechacrab, the Cyborg Crustacean. Its core belonged to you now. Only two targets left.
In a rather decisive battle, you slayed Crabbell, Ringer of the Tides and obtained a magical image of its bell. One target remains.
You have vanquished all four of Gregory's champions. The seer should be able to help you locate him using the relics you obtained from them.
You returned the remnants of Gregory's champions to the seer. After you assisted her in dealing with a group of assassins, she began to focus her magical power to locate the heretical mage, Gregory. It will take some time for her to finish, so you have been left with some free time.

On the way to Acrus, you were attacked by a group of brigands intending to rob you. One of them managed to escape, but he dropped what appears to be an identification badge depicting a hawk impaled with two swords. Judging by the fact that they have matching badges, they may be an organized faction. There may be value in learning more about them.
Apparently, these bandits are been lurking around Acrus for some time. One of the city guards mentioned one of them being detained. You might be able to use your reputation to question the bandit and learn more.
You cleared out the hideout in Acrus, with the brigand cell leader in tow. In a strange turn of events, some mysterious humanoid bear creature got loose in the building and laid waste to everyone inside. Additionally, it seems to have expressed interest in hunting you down at some point in the future.
You cleared out the hideout along the country road. You learned that this particular band of brigands is a major Crimson dealer in this part of Aekran, and that they hired a hitman to deal with some of their major enemies. All you know about this hitman is that he goes by the name of Ghost.
The last hideout was massacred by the strange bear creature. However, there was a survivor. He pointed you in the direction of the brigand leader's hideout. Apparently, it's along the outskirts of Ironhaven. You set off, hoping he hasn't relocated recently.

==[Magical Artifacts]==
You happened upon a mysterious fellow in the sewers of Acrus, carrying an unusual relic. He mentioned that there are two other relics somewhere in Aekran that, when brought together, would lead their holder to an ancient ruin filled with unimaginable treasures. You decided to keep that in mind, just in case.
Turns out that mysterious fellow was a power hungry megalomaniac known as Geralt of Nivea, and the story he told was only partially true. Whoever holds all of the relics will apparently gain an incredible power, enough to make taking over the Aekranian empire a very real possibility. You prevented Geralt from obtaining more of the relics, and even relieved him of one of them. One relic remains unaccounted for.
[2/3] Obtain the three relics
==[Haunting Visions]==
You were presented with a strange vision one night before you fell asleep. You don't know why, you don't know the meaning of the image, and y̭͙̹̱̥͉̕ͅo̝͈̥͉̦̜͝u̵̫̻̩͓̖ ̬̘̫̩͖ͅd̯͓̟͇̼̤o͍̜͇͕̦ṉ̬̰͓'̲̹̰͙̤̟t̫̰̞̥̟ ̗̱r̰̘̝̬̰͡ec̯̙̦o̡g͉͠n̪̹̼̮i̘̦̙͇͖̯z̳̻͈͇ͅe̹͟ ̼̤̥͔t̝̭͍̞̻͕͔h̸͍̜ę̖̩̭͚̻̞̝ ̴ḇ̡̙̩̼̹̪o̥͇̺̞͈d̜̪̠͕̻͔͝i͍͙͠e̳̳͓̞͉s̶̙͚ ͚̥ͅi̡͖̠̠ṉ͖̠ ̴͚̥̱ţ̩̘̯he̞͕̰ ҉wa̷̠̘͉͖̹̞̤t̝̠̬̯͓̩e̜̩̤̯̺͔̕r̗͖̖̳̩̺͠.̡̦̩. You decided to get some help from someone more with more knowledge on this subject. Ironhaven was your next stop.
According to the Seer, you are being hunted by an eldritch horror named Kar-nthal the Formless. Apparently, it's trying to drive you insane so it can easily "assimilate" you. The seer is willing to help you track it down, but she needs some supplies. She's given you a list of what you'll need.
You brought the seer the herbs and elixirs she needs, as well as resupplying her with sparkling water. She still requires the heart of an eldritch creature. Any enemy classified as eldritch should do.

The emperor of Aekran has contacted you directly. He has requested your presence in Acrus, the capital city of Aekran. You're unsure of what the emperor is asking of you, but completing a contract for him would not only pay well, but would also vastly improve your reputation. On your way to Acrus, however, you were ambushed by unknown assailants. You'll have to get through them before you can get to Acrus.
Your meeting with the emperor was interesting. He informed you of an unusual rumor of monstrous sea creatures attacking people and dragging them into the sea, never to be seen again. He has asked you to investigate this matter and, if the rumors are true, put a stop to it.
You engaged a bizarre sea creature in combat and have slain it. Whatever it is, it doesn't seem like a naturally occurring creature. This thing was created by someone, somehow. Not only that, but you encountered a ghost wearing sunglasses that wants you dead. You have decided to tell the emperor what happened on the shore.
The emperor directed you toward the town of Ironhaven. A seer lives there, and she should be able to help you deal with the sunglasses-wearing ghost.

=====[Magic stats]=====
==[Magic]==
Your basic knowledge of magic. It primarily affects basic magic spells, but has a slight influence on all other types of magic.
==[Hydromancy]==
Your knowledge of water magic. Water-based spells are highly versatile and can be used in offensive and defensive roles.
==[Pyromancy]==
Your knowledge of fire magic. Fire-based spells are primarily offensive, dealing high damage and immolating targets.
==[Geomancy]==
Your knowledge of earth magic. Earth-based spells have strong defensive capabilities, while also being useful attacks.
==[Aeromancy]==
Your knowledge of wind magic. Wind-based spells can be used in several ways, from enhancing mobility to breaking the enemy's formation.
==[Cryomancy]==
Your knowledge of ice magic. Ice-based spells can take the form of powerful attacks or inexorable
defensive wards.
==[Electromancy]==
Your knowledge of lightning magic. Lightning-based spells have excellent attack power, and synergize well with water magic.
==[Necromancy]==
Your knowledge of necromancy. Necromancers are able to reanimate the dead, as well as create deadly
poisons and toxins.
==[Polymancy]==
Your knowledge of shapeshifting magic. Polymorphs are highly respected in combat for their adaptability and quick thinking.
==[Light magic]==
Your knowledge of light magic. Light-based spells are primarily used to ward off demonic creatures and heal wounds.
==[Dark magic]==
Your knowledge of dark magic. Darkness-based spells are a seldom used type of magic, as their use is forbidden in several parts of the world.
Here is a list of all stats.
==[HP]==
Your hit points. These decrease as you take damage. If you run out of HP, you get KO'd.
==[Damage resistances]==
Damage resistances indicate a percentage reduction to the damage you take. Most resistances are divided into the various damage types. One point of damage resistance reduces incoming damage by 1%.
==[Defenses]==
Defenses indicate a static reduction to the damage you take. Most defenses are divided into the various damage types. One point of defense reduces incoming damage by one point.
==[Status resistances]==
Status resistances indicate your ability to resist status effects applied to you. Status resistances are divided into vitality status resistance and endurance status resistance. Higher status resistance reduces the chance of you being afflicted with a status effect, as well as the potency of the status effect if you do get afflicted.
==[Equip load]==
Your equip load measures how heavy your equipped gear can be. As you get closer to the maximum, your evasion rolls will be lowered, and if you go over your maximum equip load, you won't be able to evade attacks at all.
==[Speed]==
Speed determines when in each turn you'll be able to take your action. Raising your speed will allow you take your actions sooner in the turn.
==[Mana]==
Mana is used to cast spells and use active abilities. You regenerate some of your mana every turn.
==[Inventory capacity]==
Your carrying capacity determines how many items you can carry on your person. Heavier items take up more space. This is a separate stat from equip load, so having a full inventory won't affect your ability to dodge.
==[Persuasion score]==
Persuasion score is your ability to talk your way into getting what you want. There are several factors that influence persuasion score, most notably your charisma attribute. Higher persuasion score makes it easier to win people over with words alone.
The order in which units take their turn is determined by their speed and the results of a dice roll. Your turn priority is your speed + (1 x D6). Units with the highest turn priority go first, and units with the lowest go last. Turn order will be listed on every update. If a player doesn't take their action in an update, their action that turn will be skipped.
KO'd players will automatically be revived with 10% of their max HP at the end of combat. There are other means of reviving players in the middle of battle, though they require abilities, items, or particularly effective healing attempts.
There are also preset abilities that can be learned throughout the game, at various sources. You can mix these in with your custom abilities to create a build that works perfectly for you.
Here is a list of all damage types.
Impact: inflicted by bludgeoning weapons. Can occasionally stagger an enemy, hindering their accuracy and evasion.
Slash: inflicted by blades. Can occasionally cause enemies to bleed.
Puncture: inflicted by thrusting weapons and projectiles. Can occasionally weaken an enemy, reducing their damage output.
Water: inflicted by hydromancy and water-infused weapons. Can occasionally douse the target in water, making them vulnerable to electricity.
Fire: inflicted by pyromancy and fire-infused weapons. Can occasionally light the target on fire.
Earth: inflicted by geomancy and earth-infused weapons. Can occasionally shatter an enemy's defenses, leaving them vulnerable.
Wind: inflicted by aeromancy and wind-infused weapons. Can occasionally disarm the target, weakening them or forcing them to grab their weapon.
Ice: inflicted by cryomancy and ice-infused weapons. Can occasionally freeze the target.
Electric: inflicted by electromancy and lightning-infused weapons. Can occasionally electrify the target, which also shocks nearby enemies.
Toxic: inflicted by poisons. Can occasionally poison the target.
Magic: inflicted by magic. Can occasionally hex the target, making them more vulnerable to status effects.
Light: inflicted by light magic. Can occasionally blind the target, or severely damage eldritch creatures.
Dark: inflicted by dark magic. Can occasionally corrupt the target, which can frequently lead to an early demise.
If you are below 30% of your max equip load, you'll gain +1 to your evasion dice rolls.
If you're between 30% and 60%, your evasion won't be impacted at all.
If you're over 60%, you'll gain -1 to your evasion rolls.
If you're over 100%, you won't be able to dodge attacks at all.
KO'd players can be revived in combat with certain items and abilities, or a high roll on a healing action. If a healing action isn't particularly powerful, it'll have no effect on a KO'd player. Players are typically revived with 25% of their HP.

"Off we go, then. Hopefully, that monster doesn't give us too much trouble..."
Before we go, I report the scene to the police, not mentioning that there was a survivor who ran away. Maybe a police investigation can shed some light on the specifics of this creature.
If you've met TehEpicNinja9001, you've met me. Somehow lost the account's password and email. Maybe I'll try and get it back one day. Or maybe not.
Apparently, if you put these in your signature, people will click them. Help me grow my Pokemon dudes!
"Well, my friends, that was a nice man. Hope we get to see his bakery one day. Let us get going to this hideout!" I walk onward to the hideout.

"Good luck to that redeemable fellow, then. For now, we should head to the leader's hideout, see if we can bring down the organization for good..."
“Well, let’s-a-go, then!”
You quickly locate a law enforcement officer, informing him of the scene. He begins to prepare for an investigation.
You all set off for Ironhaven. Throughout your boat ride, you can't help but feel like you're being watched by someone... or something.
You approach the hideout, noting the lack of guards outside the door. You attempt to open the door, only to find it locked.
A small hatch opens on the door, and a single eye peers out at you.
"Password?" a voice on the other side says.
What do you say?

Gain access to a Tune Gauge, which fuels musical auras. You can switch auras as a minor action, and start with 1 TP (Tune Point). Each Aura has a different TP cost, so choose wisely.

Hercules' Sonnet: 1 TP

Current location:
Ironhaven
Current quests:
Monstrous sea creatures do exist, and that appear to be lead by a ghost that wears sunglasses and speaks like a surfer dude. Honestly, it's not the weirdest thing that's happened to you on a job. The ghost is likely being summoned and controlled by a sorcerer somewhere in Aekran, and stopping them would more than likely dispel the spirit and destroy the sea monsters. In order to track down this malevolent sorcerer, the emperor has informed you of a seer in Ironhaven who should be able to help you. To get to Ironhaven, however, you'll need to obtain a boat.
You arrived in Ironhaven without incident. Your next priority would be to visit the seer.
The seer informed you that the sunglasses wearing spirit was summoned by a heretical mage known as Gregory. The only way to seal the spirit away is to stop Gregory, but to do so, you'll need to track him down. The seer pointed you in the direction of several creatures Gregory has summoned. Apparently, eliminating them and collecting whatever they leave behind will allow you to pinpoint his location. You set off, prepared for combat.
You fought and defeated Krab, Cracker of Shells, and obtained its soul. Three foes remained before you could track Gregory down.
It was a long fight, but you destroyed Mechacrab, the Cyborg Crustacean. Its core belonged to you now. Only two targets left.
In a rather decisive battle, you slayed Crabbell, Ringer of the Tides and obtained a magical image of its bell. One target remains.
You have vanquished all four of Gregory's champions. The seer should be able to help you locate him using the relics you obtained from them.
You returned the remnants of Gregory's champions to the seer. After you assisted her in dealing with a group of assassins, she began to focus her magical power to locate the heretical mage, Gregory. It will take some time for her to finish, so you have been left with some free time.

On the way to Acrus, you were attacked by a group of brigands intending to rob you. One of them managed to escape, but he dropped what appears to be an identification badge depicting a hawk impaled with two swords. Judging by the fact that they have matching badges, they may be an organized faction. There may be value in learning more about them.
Apparently, these bandits are been lurking around Acrus for some time. One of the city guards mentioned one of them being detained. You might be able to use your reputation to question the bandit and learn more.
You cleared out the hideout in Acrus, with the brigand cell leader in tow. In a strange turn of events, some mysterious humanoid bear creature got loose in the building and laid waste to everyone inside. Additionally, it seems to have expressed interest in hunting you down at some point in the future.
You cleared out the hideout along the country road. You learned that this particular band of brigands is a major Crimson dealer in this part of Aekran, and that they hired a hitman to deal with some of their major enemies. All you know about this hitman is that he goes by the name of Ghost.
The last hideout was massacred by the strange bear creature. However, there was a survivor. He pointed you in the direction of the brigand leader's hideout. Apparently, it's along the outskirts of Ironhaven. You set off, hoping he hasn't relocated recently.

==[Magical Artifacts]==
You happened upon a mysterious fellow in the sewers of Acrus, carrying an unusual relic. He mentioned that there are two other relics somewhere in Aekran that, when brought together, would lead their holder to an ancient ruin filled with unimaginable treasures. You decided to keep that in mind, just in case.
Turns out that mysterious fellow was a power hungry megalomaniac known as Geralt of Nivea, and the story he told was only partially true. Whoever holds all of the relics will apparently gain an incredible power, enough to make taking over the Aekranian empire a very real possibility. You prevented Geralt from obtaining more of the relics, and even relieved him of one of them. One relic remains unaccounted for.
[2/3] Obtain the three relics
==[Haunting Visions]==
You were presented with a strange vision one night before you fell asleep. You don't know why, you don't know the meaning of the image, and y̭͙̹̱̥͉̕ͅo̝͈̥͉̦̜͝u̵̫̻̩͓̖ ̬̘̫̩͖ͅd̯͓̟͇̼̤o͍̜͇͕̦ṉ̬̰͓'̲̹̰͙̤̟t̫̰̞̥̟ ̗̱r̰̘̝̬̰͡ec̯̙̦o̡g͉͠n̪̹̼̮i̘̦̙͇͖̯z̳̻͈͇ͅe̹͟ ̼̤̥͔t̝̭͍̞̻͕͔h̸͍̜ę̖̩̭͚̻̞̝ ̴ḇ̡̙̩̼̹̪o̥͇̺̞͈d̜̪̠͕̻͔͝i͍͙͠e̳̳͓̞͉s̶̙͚ ͚̥ͅi̡͖̠̠ṉ͖̠ ̴͚̥̱ţ̩̘̯he̞͕̰ ҉wa̷̠̘͉͖̹̞̤t̝̠̬̯͓̩e̜̩̤̯̺͔̕r̗͖̖̳̩̺͠.̡̦̩. You decided to get some help from someone more with more knowledge on this subject. Ironhaven was your next stop.
According to the Seer, you are being hunted by an eldritch horror named Kar-nthal the Formless. Apparently, it's trying to drive you insane so it can easily "assimilate" you. The seer is willing to help you track it down, but she needs some supplies. She's given you a list of what you'll need.
You brought the seer the herbs and elixirs she needs, as well as resupplying her with sparkling water. She still requires the heart of an eldritch creature. Any enemy classified as eldritch should do.

The emperor of Aekran has contacted you directly. He has requested your presence in Acrus, the capital city of Aekran. You're unsure of what the emperor is asking of you, but completing a contract for him would not only pay well, but would also vastly improve your reputation. On your way to Acrus, however, you were ambushed by unknown assailants. You'll have to get through them before you can get to Acrus.
Your meeting with the emperor was interesting. He informed you of an unusual rumor of monstrous sea creatures attacking people and dragging them into the sea, never to be seen again. He has asked you to investigate this matter and, if the rumors are true, put a stop to it.
You engaged a bizarre sea creature in combat and have slain it. Whatever it is, it doesn't seem like a naturally occurring creature. This thing was created by someone, somehow. Not only that, but you encountered a ghost wearing sunglasses that wants you dead. You have decided to tell the emperor what happened on the shore.
The emperor directed you toward the town of Ironhaven. A seer lives there, and she should be able to help you deal with the sunglasses-wearing ghost.

=====[Magic stats]=====
==[Magic]==
Your basic knowledge of magic. It primarily affects basic magic spells, but has a slight influence on all other types of magic.
==[Hydromancy]==
Your knowledge of water magic. Water-based spells are highly versatile and can be used in offensive and defensive roles.
==[Pyromancy]==
Your knowledge of fire magic. Fire-based spells are primarily offensive, dealing high damage and immolating targets.
==[Geomancy]==
Your knowledge of earth magic. Earth-based spells have strong defensive capabilities, while also being useful attacks.
==[Aeromancy]==
Your knowledge of wind magic. Wind-based spells can be used in several ways, from enhancing mobility to breaking the enemy's formation.
==[Cryomancy]==
Your knowledge of ice magic. Ice-based spells can take the form of powerful attacks or inexorable
defensive wards.
==[Electromancy]==
Your knowledge of lightning magic. Lightning-based spells have excellent attack power, and synergize well with water magic.
==[Necromancy]==
Your knowledge of necromancy. Necromancers are able to reanimate the dead, as well as create deadly
poisons and toxins.
==[Polymancy]==
Your knowledge of shapeshifting magic. Polymorphs are highly respected in combat for their adaptability and quick thinking.
==[Light magic]==
Your knowledge of light magic. Light-based spells are primarily used to ward off demonic creatures and heal wounds.
==[Dark magic]==
Your knowledge of dark magic. Darkness-based spells are a seldom used type of magic, as their use is forbidden in several parts of the world.
Here is a list of all stats.
==[HP]==
Your hit points. These decrease as you take damage. If you run out of HP, you get KO'd.
==[Damage resistances]==
Damage resistances indicate a percentage reduction to the damage you take. Most resistances are divided into the various damage types. One point of damage resistance reduces incoming damage by 1%.
==[Defenses]==
Defenses indicate a static reduction to the damage you take. Most defenses are divided into the various damage types. One point of defense reduces incoming damage by one point.
==[Status resistances]==
Status resistances indicate your ability to resist status effects applied to you. Status resistances are divided into vitality status resistance and endurance status resistance. Higher status resistance reduces the chance of you being afflicted with a status effect, as well as the potency of the status effect if you do get afflicted.
==[Equip load]==
Your equip load measures how heavy your equipped gear can be. As you get closer to the maximum, your evasion rolls will be lowered, and if you go over your maximum equip load, you won't be able to evade attacks at all.
==[Speed]==
Speed determines when in each turn you'll be able to take your action. Raising your speed will allow you take your actions sooner in the turn.
==[Mana]==
Mana is used to cast spells and use active abilities. You regenerate some of your mana every turn.
==[Inventory capacity]==
Your carrying capacity determines how many items you can carry on your person. Heavier items take up more space. This is a separate stat from equip load, so having a full inventory won't affect your ability to dodge.
==[Persuasion score]==
Persuasion score is your ability to talk your way into getting what you want. There are several factors that influence persuasion score, most notably your charisma attribute. Higher persuasion score makes it easier to win people over with words alone.
The order in which units take their turn is determined by their speed and the results of a dice roll. Your turn priority is your speed + (1 x D6). Units with the highest turn priority go first, and units with the lowest go last. Turn order will be listed on every update. If a player doesn't take their action in an update, their action that turn will be skipped.
KO'd players will automatically be revived with 10% of their max HP at the end of combat. There are other means of reviving players in the middle of battle, though they require abilities, items, or particularly effective healing attempts.
There are also preset abilities that can be learned throughout the game, at various sources. You can mix these in with your custom abilities to create a build that works perfectly for you.
Here is a list of all damage types.
Impact: inflicted by bludgeoning weapons. Can occasionally stagger an enemy, hindering their accuracy and evasion.
Slash: inflicted by blades. Can occasionally cause enemies to bleed.
Puncture: inflicted by thrusting weapons and projectiles. Can occasionally weaken an enemy, reducing their damage output.
Water: inflicted by hydromancy and water-infused weapons. Can occasionally douse the target in water, making them vulnerable to electricity.
Fire: inflicted by pyromancy and fire-infused weapons. Can occasionally light the target on fire.
Earth: inflicted by geomancy and earth-infused weapons. Can occasionally shatter an enemy's defenses, leaving them vulnerable.
Wind: inflicted by aeromancy and wind-infused weapons. Can occasionally disarm the target, weakening them or forcing them to grab their weapon.
Ice: inflicted by cryomancy and ice-infused weapons. Can occasionally freeze the target.
Electric: inflicted by electromancy and lightning-infused weapons. Can occasionally electrify the target, which also shocks nearby enemies.
Toxic: inflicted by poisons. Can occasionally poison the target.
Magic: inflicted by magic. Can occasionally hex the target, making them more vulnerable to status effects.
Light: inflicted by light magic. Can occasionally blind the target, or severely damage eldritch creatures.
Dark: inflicted by dark magic. Can occasionally corrupt the target, which can frequently lead to an early demise.
If you are below 30% of your max equip load, you'll gain +1 to your evasion dice rolls.
If you're between 30% and 60%, your evasion won't be impacted at all.
If you're over 60%, you'll gain -1 to your evasion rolls.
If you're over 100%, you won't be able to dodge attacks at all.
KO'd players can be revived in combat with certain items and abilities, or a high roll on a healing action. If a healing action isn't particularly powerful, it'll have no effect on a KO'd player. Players are typically revived with 25% of their HP.
