| Okay - Spoiler:
Name: Basil Zaahir Gender: Male Age: 29 Appearance: - Spoiler:
History: - Spoiler:
Basil’s father was a noble and his mother was Dolofonos; his mother was a slave, who was bought by one of the nobles that considered well respected. However, that respected noble’s name didn’t last long as the man really fall for his mother, Shula. Was it the beauty that attracted him? Was it her strength that attracted him? No one knows, but he was crazy enough to give up everything to live with Shula and Shula was also crazy to accept that noble to be her husband; the noble family did not take it well when Basil’s father decided to marry the slave, and as they did not approve of his love for Shula, he ran away with Shula before his family harm Shula. And Shula turned her back against her family as her family did not welcome the noble. In the end, they isolated themselves from the world and lived deep inside the mountain. It took them a year to make their life stable; Basil’s father worked hard as a mage for hire to get the money they needed for shopping (however, he didn’t take risky tasks) and Shula made it sure warm food was there for the family. As their life became more stable, Shula gave a birth to Basil. And being afraid that their child could be the victim of the society, Shula and her love decided to train him and teach him. Just like his mother, Basil quickly learned well how to hunt, and how to fight to protect his own life. Even though, training from his mother was life-threatening, he quickly adapted to his training. Soon, he was able to fight back against his mother with weapons skill; he started outclassing his mother. Soon, it was obvious that he should be tested with the nature (Fighting bears, lions, and etc). However, Basil’s training with magic, which was thought by his father wasn’t getting anywhere. To make it worse, he also showed zero talents in blood magic. When they about to give up hopes for Basil’s talents in magic, they met a stranger in the mountain. The family found the unconscious female and in their house they treated her. When the stranger woke up, she smiled and revealed it to them that she was a mage just like Basil’s father. The stranger told Basil parents that Basil’s magic talents were not in the ordinary magic, but it is in the form of Athevna Magic. An Athevna magic none like any others; psychokinesis, the stranger named it. The magic had no words to initiate, no words to learn, but a magic that works with his will. “It is a scary talent”, she commented, “but I can teach him to control it.”
How long he had been thought by the stranger? As he had his training in the mountain, it was not clear. However, he soon became a force to be reckoned; according to his teacher, he was able to use 40% of his real power, a sign that he could become stronger. The stranger left his family after telling Basil that there was nothing else to teach.
All this happened when he was a teenager. As each year pass by, his magic became stronger, and he was able to understand it and apply to different situation. He was able to move things around with his thoughts, and made himself float... His magic showed him that it had lots of application.
After 4 years later, when Basil reached his 18, the strange mage visited them again; however, she did not visit them with intention of good will. She came to Basil’s house with her friends, threatening him to come with them. As his father was no longer strong mage, and as his mother cannot fight all the wizards, he had to go with them.
It was this day that he had encountered the ‘La Nihaya’, a weapon that strangers were looking for and the weapon that decided to choose him as owner. ‘La Nihaya’ was a weapon with a thought, and furthermore, it was able to fight back. It could float itself to fight the foes, and as it had no definite physical form, it transformed into many shapes and sizes to fight its foe. The strange cult had hard time capturing it, and with their magic it was definitely impossible. However, this time they had Basil.
Basil was forced by them to face the weapon, and it was one on one. The weapon struck first and with instinct, Basil stopped its movement. “Interesting…A mortal with the power to stop me before I strike…” said the weapon. “Mortal, what is your wish?” And Basil wished for one thing. “I want to have power to protect my family!” And with the blinding light, the strangers were all dead.
“I have chosen you as my master, mortal. Tell me your name to finalize this contract.” And Basil said it without any hesitation. “My name is Basil Zaahir! Son of Tabassum Zaahir and Shula Zaahir! I accept your contract.”
“You have accepted your contract, thus, my powers are only yours and no others are able to use me. I will curse others if they touch me, remember that mortal.”
Basil didn’t know how serious this contract was and this weapon led to his parent’s death. He joined the mercenary after that incident; he couldn’t dispose the weapon nor did weapon leave his side. He regretted making the contract. To make it worse, the next generation of his family was bound by that contract.
After the incident with his family, he decided to become a mercenary to help people, who could not pay the proper price for the help.
Personality: Basil is very friendly towards the others. He doesn’t let others touch his weapon as it would curse others. He is very strong in his opinion, and he likes to read and traveling. He prefers to use his powers and talents for the poor and help others. Occupation: Mercenary Magic: Athevna Magic, Psychokinesis: The power to use his will to move objects around and it also let it levitate the objects. He could also make himself float, allowing him to grant him power to fly for decent distance. He could also stop the incoming objects and is also able to create a barrier around himself and others if it is necessary. However, making barrier and continue to hold the barrier, dangerously tires him out. Depending on the size of the barrier he had created, his barriers last long as days to an hour. The bigger the barrier, he gets tired very quickly. Abilities: - Spoiler:
Half-Blood: Has the blood of the Dolofonos running through his veins. Possess the advantages of Dolofonos Blood, but on a lower scale.
Equipment: Standard Armor Standard Clothing Weapon, La Nihaya: Weapon that has no definite shape or size. The weapon has its own thought and it had decided to choose Basil as its master and made a contract with him. The weapon could become weapons of what its master wants. A weapon that has strong loyalty to his master and curse others those who wish to use it. The curse makes the person weak, to the point that he/she cannot withstand the weight of this weapon. Stats: Mental: 3 Physical: 2 Speech: 1 Perception: 3

| ok, guys i had an idea but i need everyone's opinion on it.
so i thought of adding a health system, now i know it makes things slightly more tedious, but let me give you the pros and cons of having a health system.
Pros of having a health system:
- Provides a sense of mortality(no running head first and everything goes well) - Alows the use of certain reward systems like health potions, items that reduce damage, money to buy stuff like that. - Combat becomes more dynamic and sometimes more epic(imagine killing fooder while slowly dieing from poison). - Abilities can actually have a stronger impact on the overall story. - Alows the effective use of traps to punish reckless exploring before facing a boss.
Cons of having a health system:
- Things become more complicated(not to complicated, but enough to be differant). - Something new, might not work well(i'm confident on my experience from D&D though). |

| Well, I too resist the complications of stat systems. But if you want to give it a try, I'll go along with it. _________________ ~Vae Victis - The Black Lily Blooms~ | |

| Well, for one, it will make things too restricted... Yes, it will make people to be careful, but I have a feeling it will make people to be too careful...
Another thing is the potion system that comes with it.... and the damage system you have to work it out as well...

| hmmm ok. I was thinking of how to add a sense of danger with traps and how to make finding treasure feel rewarding since I wanted exploring to be a big thing. But if people are against it, i'll scrap it |

| Well I don't mind trying out if you have completed the system But, I am not entirely sure about health system in general unless its really purely for PvP Like Gedo's hurt and heal | |

| Well, we could try it for the first mission or two and see how it goes. If it's more trouble than it's worth, you can scrap it. _________________ ~Vae Victis - The Black Lily Blooms~ | |

| ok so everyone has 100% health
damage is done in acordance to the stat used x 10.
so physical damage uses the physical stat. So 1 physical equal to 10 damage, 2 physical equal to 20 damage, 3 physical equal to 30 damage.
Magic damage uses the mental stat and works the same logic as the previous.
Damage reduction use a similar logic, except with one differance. instead of being x 10, it's x 10 - 10
So physical damage taken would use the physical stat, if you have 1 physical that means 0 damage would be reduced, 2 means 10 would be reduced and 3 that 20 would be reduced. Same logic would apply with Magic.
these number could then change depending on weapons, armors, items and abilities and even how the attacks are(example attacking using the blunt side of the weapon would deal less damage but hitting someone's head with a axe would deal huge damage.)
since the goal of this system is simply for PvE, most of it would be intoative.
hmmm, perharps doing a test run would be good? like a rping a simple dungeon to see if the system is fine or just a nucense? |
