Anyone interested in...(Offical RPG topic)

EDIT: We are making a Final Fantasy RPG for the boards

SPOILERS IN CLASSES
For those wondering why , it names things that are considered spoilers to some games.

Online-style(no dice) with or without moving, hit for X amount of damage take X amount of damage ect. 

Are you going to pick a Final Fantasy game to follow; or are you attempting to create something new with the traditional trademark items from the franchise. I also have AOL and the roleplaying community on that ISP is big. Surprisingly no one hardly every RPs any other FF game on America Online accept for the seventh installment. There's two know FFRPing groups which are absolutely amazing. One is called Return to the Planet(based off of FFVII) and another is named ShinRa(it's been around for 8 or 7 years) which basically takes what you know about the company to a new meaning.

I roleplayed in ShinRa for about 4 years with my character Alwen Greco. He was an Aeronavy officer(Airship commander) in ShinRa's paramilitary. But the group I was roleplaying with was really stricted. Everyone who joined had to become a military policemen(like Cloud) but there were several divisions within the MP Directorate, from basic law enforcement to maritime patrol. As you went through the enlisted ranks your superiors watched you. If you performed well IC on missions, and enemy encounters you could be promoted to SOLDIER, Special Operations, Omega Mechanize Infantry(Mighty Grunts), Foxtrot(Sniper Warfare), and Aeronavy(Airships) - the elite divisions. But depending on what division you were in as a MP branches off into one of those 5 elite divisions. The thing is many people wanted SOLDIER and almost like all elite divisions the dedicated members received these status. I spent two years as a military police officer in this division called Echo Task Force(maritime patrol) before being promoted to Aeronavy and a commissioned officer(Ensign, c1)so image the process of SOLDIER. But I had fun; you can check out my character at http://www.freewebs.com/alwengreco.

Interesting.  Sound like the ones I am in.  A Fire emblem rp and a some what of a freeform.  I joined Gaia, but I am not in a roleplay yet there, but I did show up at a bussness roleplay a few times.

Here is the profile for the freeform.

The other profile is at the Fire emblem union.

I was thinking of a basic system so you could easily add classes, races and weapons from any FF game, so yes it will include things from all Final Fantasies starting with the numbered ones (I,II,III) since I have not played all of them I'll need some help for spells, races and classes. I'll start basic

• Classes
  Black Mage
• White Mage
• Red Mage (what kind though? Having both Black and White? Or other?)
• Theif
• Fighter/Soldier/Knight (I see no difference between them)
• Summoner (What summons?)

• Spells (Basic again)
• Fire
• Water
• Lighting
• Blizzard
• Aero
• Stop
• Haste
• Ultima
• Flare

I will be using a 4 Spell Level System

1st Level = Spell Name
2nd Level = -ra
3rd Level = -ga
4th Level = -ja

• Races
• Human
• Elf (?)
• Moogle
• Viera

Thats all I can think of right now (sorry about the half post I had to go to school)

Honestly I can't, I don't know alot of websites for ANYTHING. I didn't know it exsisted. Maybe someone could creatate a .gif  that you can "roll dice" with. I don't know

but an online game would be great, lets take the skeletens of another game and invent it in a new FF like world, with mogs and summons ect

we could be adventurers/traders each searching out for power or money or security

Easy enough, I've tried making a dozen RPGs already and I'm pretty good at it.

There could be like gates that link the worlds toghter before or after the story in that word take place.  Can original characters be in this role play? jdr_172000

Yes there will, I had the same idea, so somehow all places from the MAJOR FFs (VII, IX, X ect.) will be in there somehow.

Orginial characters, why not I don't see a problem with it, just that they start at LV 1 (duh.) Ifsomeone does let me know.

i think an original cast is in order, each main player can make parties with other charactersKnowledgeOrCred

Thats kinda hard using multiple worlds, but either way I don't care. FF chars are open you can claim them now.

places from the MAJOR FFs.

That would increase the different races.  What world/area would be the starting place?

I don't know anything about this so pardon me for not joinin gthe discussion.Fantasy_Gamer

i would have thought you'd be very interesting, this could be the thing that gets us out of the slumps for good, not in post count but post quality

I don't know anything about this so pardon me for not joining the discussion.Fantasy_Gamer

Ok, in short, we're (myself and whoever wants to help) are making a FF RPG for the boards. Above is the first listing of Classes, Weapons, and Items.

I don't know anything about this so pardon me for not joinin gthe discussion.Fantasy_Gamer

just get all the jobs from FFXI and thier stats while your at it. lilkamikaze

Care to help? I'm really tight on time here. I've got an essay due tomorrow along with a basketball game. A hockey scrimmage Friday night, practice Sat. and a game Sunday along with a party.

Ya, what will we start as?  In 1 we could chose from white, red, black, warrior, theif, and black belt.  3 we started out as Onion kids.  5 we started out as bare.  FF:T we started out as a Squire or Chemist.  In FF:TA there were alot of classes we started out as depinding on race.  Humans started out with Soldier, Thief, White, Black, archer.  The Bangaa started out with Warrior, and White monk.  Moogles have black, Animist, and Thief.  The Nu mou have Black, White, and BeastMaster.  Viera have Archer, Fencer, and White.

I forgot there will be job advancements, but I am not sure how some of the jobs will go.  Because 3 and 5 don't have advancements I think.

Ok, I'm gonna try a different approach. I'm gonna make this on the fly. You pick the Race/Class and if its not there I'll make stats for it. (So yes, KoC there will be a theif.) This way we don't have to wait for me to make stats for every Class/Race in the FF realm. There will be class advancements and multi-classing, but not until after LEVEL 10. I'll get into that when someone meets the requirements and wants to. So please start making characters or request me to make a race/class for your character.

I want to help, but I don't know what to do. You can give me a form like:
