[you]Chapter 3: Battles and Traveling[/you]
This chapter covers how to buy items and battle for the most part. It also covers one of the biggest topics, traveling on the map. Buying items is something you need to know and it is the easiest to explain, so let's start with that. The shop happens to be one of the boards in the forum. When you are in one of the places specified, you can shop in that shop. There may be a few shops so make sure to check it out.
Shopping is easy, just reply to the shop saying what you want to buy. Then once I send you a message saying your item has been bought, add it to your inventory. It is very easy. If you add an item without my permission, you will get banned, it's called cheating.
[you]Traveling[/you]
Traveling is easy, just go to places, it is an honor system so don't teleport or anything but, do move at fair rates. Do things in many places. Remember you choose the world you live in, don't make it a crappy one. Describe it nicely and travel through it all. You do have a basic template to follow though, there a six islands to the north, one continent in the
west and another in the east. One under the one to the west and that is the basics. The islands are big, the continent in the east is very, very large. The continent in the east on top is about half the size of the globe and so it the once below it.
[you]Battles[/you]
Battles are a little more complicated then what you have seen. Like everything else, you must buy attacks in the store, they all have ranks, and you get to start with one rank D attack. Your mission in battle is to attack the enemy, it is turn-based fighting. Let's start with getting into a battle, you can get into a battle randomly if you are sent a message while traveling, it will be sent by a mod, and it will contain the monster and it's phase. It will be sent to everyone in your team, and you all will battle, you will only be sent one when you are traveling. Label when the battle starts by writing in bold letters the words "Battle started" then you are ready to start. The starter of the role-play will go first and either attack or use magic, then the next player who joined gets to go next and so on. Now after all players have gone, the monster gets to move, the mod who sent you the personal message will control the monster and attack you guys. After the battle is over, after you have reduced the monster's health to 0 then the mod will report it to me and everyone's stats will be raised.
If you happen to die you can come back as another new character which means you have to squeeze your new character into the story, or you can just wait until your friends try to buy an item to bring you back. You can win gold and get experience and such, sometimes you will get items and other things too. Getting high experience can get you more chances at things, like buying higher rank items and attacks.
[you]How a turn should look[/you]
A turn should have a few things in it that make it easy to understand.
1. You must write any damage taken. For example; the monster attacks you and two turns later it is your turn. If you don't use any items that stop it, then you must write something like >took X damage from X monster
2. Write what your move is, this can be used in a variety of ways. Basically, write what your character does, besides using the attacks you can get into a more perspective point of view. Instead of just writing >I use fire ball!!! Write something like >I ran behind the enemy as fast as I oculd, and got behind it, I used a fireball!
3. This third option cannot be done until you get my permission, so post what you already have and go PM me, tell me to come look at your turn,
