Hello. This is my first attempt at an RPG here, though I've had plenty of experience elsewhere.
Ancient Rings will be an FF world, inspired by other FF worlds (especially FFVII). In this world, there are many magical rings, which only a select few called the ring bearers can use. While some others have a natural talent in some forms of magic, ring bearers have the advantage choosing their powers and trading it with another, which gives them a wide range of possibilities. There are also some rings which do not grant magical powers, but change the physical status of the ring bearer (such as giving gills slits for underwater breathing, or transforming into another form altogether). The only limits of the ring bearer are that they can only use as many powers as they have fingers in a single battle. And if they want to use a higher power like fire 3, they have to have a ring for fire 1, fire 2, and fire 3 in order to use it.
Like most FF games, the towns vary in appearance from modern to past to futuristic. And one major kingdom called Wrek is spreading throughout the world, attempting to gain total dominance over the entire planet. The king himself is a ring bearer, and is very powerful.
Before I do anything else, I would like for all interested players to provide a profile of their character. Then we can work on a story to bring them all together.
As for the characters, this is what I am looking for:
1. I'm looking for diverse character personalities and talents. No two characters should be alike, so make sure you look at what has already been made before you start.
2. No more ring bearer characters. My character is a ring bearer, and so is the main villain, the king of Wrek. Black magicians, heavy swordsmen, whatever class you can come up with or take from another game, it's fine so far as no other character has that same exact class.
3. Like FFVII, or FFX, when a character recieves enough of a thrashing, they can have a special attack. Try to select an attack that is different from the other characters.
4. New races of humanoids, or even some beasts like Red XIII. Most characters can be human, but I'd like at least a few other kinds of life forms.
5. If your character is a magician or a psychic or a ninja, go into details on what powers they have. What spells/ninjutsu/whatever do they know currently or can learn later? Or if they can change shape, what shapes can they take on?
6. No past history is needed yet. If you have something, you may use it, but it's not neccessary yet. We need to find something to bring them together after we have the characters made.
If you need some ideas for a class for your character, either look at some characters in the FF series for ideas, or look at a list I've given here for your convenience.
White magician, black magician, summoner, mechanic, heavy swordsman, piercing swordsman (pointed sword rather than double blade), archer, thief, ninja, boxer, gunman, android, beast, javalin user, axe user, psychic, morpher (changes shape).
I have a couple of characters in mind, a boy ring bearer and a young mermaid, but sadly I do not have the time to make a profile tonight (edit: profiles posted below); it's getting late. But I'll get to it real soon. Go ahead and make your profiles, if you like. And I will be back to tell you what I think of them.
