	Due to the popularity of the previous game (from what I could tell), I am going to try to get this started again. I wish VGFreak877 the best of luck on creating more games. The Story The legends of the Chest of Locks have sprinkled down to the people in the town of Goldenrod. The Chest has been sitting in the Mayor's house, seemingly forever, with no one having been able to open it. Now, a mysterious tower appears out of nowhere. Could this tower be a key to the Chest of Locks? Will it even be opened? *corny story, I know* The Object On each floor is a number of squares (or rectangles, depending on your perspective). Find the square with the key to gain a bonus. Get the most keys at the end and see if you have enough to open the Chest of Locks...if you do, you will gain whatever is inside. The Rules Before you actually make your move, you may do the following: Use an item. Equip an item. Chat with a fellow player. Clarify something via OOC (Out of Character) speak. Just act goofy. When you are ready to take your turn, you may only do one of the five. Pick a square to uncover what is there. Remove obstacles from a square (up to three obstacles can be removed at once). Attack a monster that is out and about. Hide and avoid all attacks. Some other crazy thing you want to try out (if this fails, then you waste your turn and the monsters can attack you). Should you pick a square, one of the following can happen, plus more not listed: You gain EXP. (get enough EXP to level up) You gain Munny. (this is the currency of the game) You gain items. (items can be used before your turn; they help) You gain some health. (useful if you are near death) You gain a key that could open the Chest of Locks. (a big bonus is awarded for every key found) You gain...nothing. (just like it says) You gain some pain from a monster attack! (it could be a physical, magical, or status-ical *yeah, right* attack) You gain a Token of Speed! (use this to uncover two squares at once) You gain--no--LOSE a turn or two due to some devious means. You...will have to wait and see if other things come up. Battles/Engagments All damages are determined by the attackers ATK or SPA (Special Attack; used in magic), subtracted by the defenders DEF or SPD (Special Defense; used to protect against magic). Example: If a wizard casts a fire spell with SPA 14 and you get attacked and have SPD 9, you lose 5 HP. DEF can't be used to defend against SPA and vice~versa. Should ATK - DEF or SPA - SPD result in a negative number, the damage done is treated as zero. Be careful, because some monsters can attack more than once per round; get those items ready. Obstacles Some squares will have obstacles on them. Some can be removed through using your HP, while others require different methods. Some examples are as follows: Log *L*: It's just a log. Chop it up. (5 HP per log) Boulder *B* Tougher than a log, but it can still be broken. (10 HP per log) Crates *C* Weaker than logs, but many often pile on a square. (2 HP per crate) Key Gate *GK* These require a little key to unlock; every floor that has a Key Gate has a little Key somewhere. The little keys CAN be carried to new floors. Monster Gate *GM* To uncover the squares guarded by these, all available monsters must be vanquished. The gates CAN house other monsters, so be careful. The Maps An example map is shown below. 1 2 *2 Ls* 3 *1 C* 4 5 *GK* Starting Stats and Definitions LVL: The Level you are. EXP: The amount of EXP you have. MUN: The amount of Munny you have. HP: Your HP in the form of current/max. ATK/DEF/SPA/SPD: Your stats in Attack, Defense, Special Attack, and Special Defense. STA: Your stamina. After every turn in which you act, your HP recovers by the amount of STA you have. ITM: Your items. These range from potions to weapons. All equipped items will be highlighted. You may equip one weapon, one armor, one spell, and two accessories at once. Items do not have to be equipped to be used. Starting Stats Class HP ATK DEF SPA SPD STA Warrior 20 4 5 1 2 3 Mage 15 2 2 5 4 1 Valkyrie 20 3 3 3 3 3 Giant 30 6 5 1 1 1 Level Upgrades: Unless *starred*, each upgrade happens at every level. Level Upgrades Class HP ATK DEF SPA SPD STA Warrior +4 +2 +2 +1 *2* +1 *2* +1 *4* Mage +2 +1 +1 +2 +2 +1 *2* Valkyrie +2 +2 +2 +2 +2 +1 *3* Giant +6 +3 +2 +1 *4* +1 *3* +1 *4* The Rest When you post, do EVERYTHING on one post. After you post, do NOT post again IC wise unless you made a mistake such as choosing a square someone else has claimed. OOC posts are allowed, but limit them please. You play until you are either dead and no one uses a reviving item on you, you are stoned/petrified and no one uses a soft on you, or you chicken out and leave the tower for good. If you choose to leave, you will not be able to return. Should you want to play, say so here or PM me. State the class you want. Up to 12 people may play this game, but only three people per class please. When the real key (and not those little ones for the Key Gates) is found, everyone goes to the next level. Again, I emphasize that the key finder will receive a bonus. That bonus will be an automatic level up, at least 20 Munny, and perhaps more depending on how many squares are left. Should more than one person want a square, the older poster gets priority. Any time there is a shop, attraction, or other such thing, you may use a part of your turn to visit the establishment before completing the turn. Visiting such places and then hiding is perfectly acceptable. If you do not post saying that you are doing anything (even if it's just to sit and do nothing), your health will NOT recover. You must be active to reap the benefits. There are probably a few more things that I'm forgetting, or things that will come eventually. Just enjoy the game already! Alright...with that out of the way......sign ups are now starting!

	In spite of the fact that I'll have no use for SPD or SPA for, like, ever, I'll try a Mage again.

	The three of you are right now waiting outside the mysterious tower...waiting for three more at least. More would be preferable, but six is the minimum limit.

	APH striker returns, hoping for the casino luck he had in the other RPG. He is still a Valkyrie

	The next two arrive, and wait...the gates have not yet opened. Suddenly, a creaking noise is heard...or so you guys think. Could the tower let just the five of you in to start? (Okay guys, vote on whether you just want the five of you to start or not)

	I'm up for new players, but if nobody else is willing to join, it can't be helped. I say leave it open for another day or so, and if nobody joins, then maybe we can start.

	I think that we should just start; the others have had their chance.

	I say give it about another day, and if no one else joins in, then let 'er rip.

	Six brave people have arrived at this mysterious and forbidding tower. (PS: Someone explain how to get rid of the blank space between this sentence and the table below.) Our Heroes Name Class HP ATK DEF SPA SPD STA N. S. Nick Warrior 20/20 4 5 1 2 3 The Empty Eye Mage 15/15 2 2 5 4 1 Sir Kirby A.T.W. Valkyrie 20/20 3 3 3 3 3 Prince Grey Warrior 20/20 4 5 1 2 3 A.P.H. Striker Valkyrie 20/20 3 3 3 3 3 Sir King of Lizard Giant 30/30 6 5 1 1 1 The gates start to rise, and what looks like some freaky looking butler greets you. I see you have arrived, brave ones. There will be many perils while you attempt to unlock the mystery of your fair town's Chest of Locks. I will explain to you your charge. On each floor you come across will be a field of shapes; mainly squares and rectangles. Take turns choosing and uncover what you want. It is as simple as that. But...do be careful. The last time a group came to conquer this tower, I think they suffered a case of insanity and they could never be healed. But I have faith that at least one of you will be able to figure this out. *he gets a good look at all of you* Now, good luck, and enjoy your journey. With that, the butler disappears right in front of you...strange. When you all enter, a magic spell is placed upon the gate, allowing others to join...but no one to leave. BWA HA HA HA *hack cough* (okay, okay already) Everyone take a look at the field below you: Level 1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 What we have here is a basic map, 2 rows by 4 columns (hence forth a 2 by 4), with no obstacles or barriers or anything of that sort. Remember to only take one turn, and wait for me to post before you guys get greedy again. Have at it! (edited by wolfman2000 on 07-09-04 06:22 PM)

	Kirby looks around the floor... nothing to see. He shrugs, and tosses an arrow at square #4, and heads over to see what he hit. (edited by Kirby ATW on 07-09-04 08:15 PM)

	*THE Emptyeye stops looking at damsel-in-distress pictures long enough to realize his quest has started* Hmm, I like the number 2 (Guys at The Rock 106.9 WCCC: TWOOO?!?!)... *He heads to Square Two and selects it.*

	APH meanders around the board to cross-examine the odd rectangles. He falls and lands on square 7, and decides that fate has led him to this square. He opens up it's secrets.

	NSNick trods over to Square 5, eager to see what he will uncover.

	Hmm, square 8 has an interesting shape. The giant then bounces over to square 8, hoping to find something of value.

	(OOC: Give me a few moments to calculate these results; no one else may post right now.) Turn 1 Over! Let's go through these in order now. Kirby ATW (4) : You heard the arrow scrape something. As you check it out...well, it's not the key, but 5 munny is not bad whatsoever. Emptyeye (2) : You go to the square, and you suddenly feel a boost of experience. You have just gained 2 EXP. APH Striker (7) : As you step on your square, you get tripped up and fall. When you get up, you see some ugly looking ogre with a club that he used to trip you. You lost 4 HP due to the monster's swing; this ogre has 7 ATK. However, you end up going back to a loss of 1 HP due to your stamina recovering. NS Nick (5) : You also gain some experience by visiting the square...unfortunately, it's only 1 EXP. Lizard King (8) : As you start to wonder what is at your square, a hallowed light comes and engulfs you in it. After everyone stares at you for some time, everyone starts looking at your hands...or rather, what's IN your hands. Congradulations! You have found the first key that can possibly go with the Chest of Locks! Level: 2! Munny: 45! (15 * 3 squares never opened) HP: 36/36! ATK: 9! DEF: 7! Suddenly, the ogre vanishes; apparently the sight of either the light or the key scares it. A stairway to the next level unfolds. Level 2 1 *1 L* 2 3 4 5 *GM* 6 7 8 9 *1 L* Obstacles are now introduced. The logs can be removed by any of you guys at the cost of 5 HP minus Stamina, while the monster gate in the center will only be removed once the monster...or monsters...are defeated. Of course, the key might not be there at all, but good luck anyway! Heroes' Stats Name Class LVL HP EXP MUN ATK DEF SPA SPD STA N. S. Nick Warrior 1 20/20 1/5 0 4 5 1 2 3 The Empty Eye Mage 1 15/15 2/5 0 2 2 5 4 1 Sir Kirby A.T.W. Valkyrie 1 20/20 0/5 5 3 3 3 3 3 Prince Grey Warrior 1 20/20 0/5 0 4 5 1 2 3 A.P.H.
