Okay, IC Thread is launched. Remember to keep out-of-character stuff in the out-of-character thread  ;)

The Fool has supplied us with smaller-size profile portraits that you can use while chatting in the game.

Spoiler: the actual pictures (click to show/hide)

I'll use various colours of glow effects for the NPC chat, I'd suggest using the basic text-recolouring for the PC chats.


linky!


EDIT: the original profile images were rather... big, so we the Fool smalled them down for us.

So, I'm working on getting the characters' equipment and ability lists and stuff ready for battle. Boy, is there a lot of it to go through.

Everyone can wear clothes (i.e. light armors) and hats (distinct from helmets), and equip daggers, rods, or staves. This applies at all times; if you want to switch to Knight and bonk people with a magic stick, you go right ahead.
Everyone starts wearing a leather hat and clothes (both of which contribute a little bit to your HP; gear doesn't contribute to "Defense", really, just HP) and an appropriate weapon. You'll all have some sort of specific gear; everyone either gets a better-than-average weapon, a better-than-average armor, or a minor accessory.

Heath can use swords, greatswords, katanas, and axes. He starts with a battle axe.
Alexia can use swords, ninjato, and greatswords. She starts with a Longsword. (and also a broadsword that she does not have equipped)
Grace can use books and music instruments, and wear robes. She starts with a rod, hempen robes, and a Plant Bracelet (75% resistance to poison and blindness).
Kyle can use swords, greatswords, ninjato, crossbows, and guns. and wear heavy armor. He starts with a broadsword and leather clothes.
Elizalotte can use swords, ninjato, crossbows, and guns. She starts with a broadsword and a bowgun a Longsword. (the broadsword is equipped, but obviously you can switch before battle)
Gregory can use swords, axes, flails, and shields, and can wear helmets (think hard hat  :P). He starts with a broadsword and an escutcheon.

Tell me if I've done something terribly wrong with your equipment availability.

Olan will be providing you some equipment too; there will be 2 leather armor, 2 leather helmets, 2 broadswords, 2 daggers, 2 escutcheons, and a bowgun provided to you in case anyone wants to switch to the generic classes to start with. Note that leather armor counts as "heavy armor" and leather helmets are "helmets", not "hats".

If you were going for more of a "light fighter" archetype, I can change it.

I was going for rogue or caster since that's my type. But I can play a tank guy.

One rogue, coming right up.

Kyle can use ninjato, katanas, crossbows, and guns. He starts with a broadsword and leather clothes.
Grace is now wearing a hempen robe instead of clothes.
And Elizalotte is no longer being given a bowgun (since there's spares), she instead has a Longsword for her weapon.
(retcon ftw)

I'm just finishing statting up the equipments, once that's done I'm moving on to making the HTML tables for your Unique Jobs... and once those are done you guys can actually pick which job you'll start in and which abilities to buy first  :P

Also, I think I've alluded to this elsewhere... I'll make sure you're allowed to switch your job and equipment/ability setup and buy abilities before each fight, after you've at least seen how many enemies are on the battlefield. Once you've made your first move in a fight, though, you aren't allowed to switch until combat's over (unless you have the Equipment Change support ability equipped).

I'd prefer to replace the broadsword with a knife of some kind or a second light sword that can be wielded with 1 hand, preferably something shorter then a long sword and with cutting edges on both sides rather then a point.

It was common to combine a long bladed weapon with a shorter bladed one, long swords have a point so the shorter one would be more useful as a slashing blade.

Large weapons are not really Alexia's style, they take away from her speed.

I'm going to be making a mad lunge for the firearms asap. I originally planned to mention "Her jacket, coming from her father, had many secrets- hidden holsters being one of them" but scrapped it as I didn't know if FFT had guns for humans. Revenant Wings did, but FFT A2 had guns as a moogle-only class.

Mechanically, broadswords can be wielded one-handed in this game, but I see your point. I'll change it into a dagger.

Also, I got the tables for everyone's Unique Job Ability List done. I think it worked out okay.


I've re-uploaded the campaign file. (it's a different link because I haven't figured out how to just "update" an existing file on Google Drive...)
Download it and look around at the nouns and stuff. Daravon (he's replaced Alazlam) now knows your unique job skill lists, there's a Character map that has your stats on it, and an Equipment map with all the equipment you have equipped and the stats on all the gear you know about.

Btw what is a escutcheon?
A kind of shield.
Right, and they make sucky shields because they're decorative. Or rather, they're less-than-perfectly efficient shields. It's not like they're unusable or anything.



Shoruke will nudge the game forward if not all players have posted in:
~24 hours. (from this edit)
