==> Schoolfeeding: Commence

-- CURRENT blackoutEtude [BE] RIGHT NOW opened memo INFODUMP --

since I can't believe that most of you
still don't even know who your teammates are
(except for maybe the humans but come on that's easy)
I think it's pretty safe to assume most of you also haven't been doing much to figure out how this game works
and why some of you suck so bad at it
although really
there's no helping it in some cases
fair warning, this is long as shit because I've ~actually~ been looking shit up about this game
so buckle in kiddos
time to kick this steam-powered information locomotive into proverbial gear




alright, let's start off easy
most of your consorts call you something, or say something about you that's supposed to give you a hint as to who you are
it's all over Derse and Prospit too
if you look at their headlines close enough
so, titles have two parts-


TITLE PART 1: CLASSES

the first part of most 'titles', a class dictates how you use your powers
far as I've been able to pick up
there are twelve basic classes and two master classes, as follows
though I wasn't able to get anything but names for some of them

rogue- usually a female class, 'steals' whatever their aspect is for the use of teammates
thief- also usually female, 'steals' their aspect from anyone and everyone for their own use
heir- ???
maid- ???
page- ???
knight- hardcore fucks who use their aspects to suck less, generally
seer- use their aspect to 'see' outcomes and possibilities, depending on their aspect
mage- ???
sylph- ???
witch- generally a female class, also hardcore fucks who manipulate their surroundings via their aspect
bard (mine)- usually a male class (the fuck♫) literally all I got was that this class does what the fuck it wants when the fuck it wants and how the fuck it wants, no lie
prince- invites destruction via their aspect (which was weirdly specific), also pretty hardcore I guess

master classes are muse (generally female only) and lord (generally male only), but the dudes were pretty quiet on that front
movin' on♪


TITLE PART 2: ASPECTS

second part of your title, there's only twelve of these
so I guess they just combo these up with classes at random to try and avoid doubles
whatever the case, the twelve aspects are-

time- one of two necessary for a successful session, pretty much what it says on the tin
time players manipulate time, either to help themselves or help their team
space- second aspect necessary for a successful session, space players also do pretty much what's obvious, and also have the joy of breeding duties
so yeah, whoever our spacey jerk is
better be taking care of those frogs on your planet
breath- WINDY THINGS it's actually pretty cool some of the stuff that breath players can do with the whole 'be the wind' thing or whatever
light- luck
like, that's literally it
~luck~
void- ??? seriously I got nothing no one seems to know how the fuck it actually works
heart- something about souls and shit, so there's any heart players
try not to go all Fatal Konflict on us, okay troll Shang Tsung♫
life- again, pretty much what it says on the tin- do the lifey thing, fuckfaces
blood- ??? I don't even know but it just SOUNDS cool
mind- thoughts and decisions, although how it works depends on class, I guess
rage- berserkers or stopping people from being batshit off the handle, depends on class
doom- ??? again, literally no clue
hope (mine)- idk hope lasers or some shit I seriously got the worst fucking combo in existence


of course, all aspects and classes are related
paired up, kinda I guess
but the only ones I know for sure are the classes

rogue-thief
bard-prince
seer-sylph
witch-mage
page-knight
maid-heir
muse-lord

far as I can figure aspect-wise, it's probably something like
space-time
mind-rage
life-blood
void-light
hope-doom
and I guess breath-heart even though that makes no sense
but whatever
moving on to more important things-


FRAYMOTIFS

big fucking attacks based on your aspect, pretty much
also combo attacks with other aspects, if you're lucky
they're sold in village shops according to my consorts
but they're all expensive as fuck
and the combinations seem pretty specific depending who you are
both players gotta own the fraymotif before they can use it though
so don't waste your boondollars on anything that isn't gonna be useful



ECHELADDER

essentially♫
all your fucking levels
there's about 30 total and that's before you even hit something else
pretty much decides how hard you hit, how many hits you can take and how hard a hit you can take
pretty sure there's an exponential pattern to it
don't really care though, I'm near the top of mine, I'm pretty sure



PLANET QUESTS

all that stupid shit your consorts are making you do♫
yeah, that's kind of important, some way or another, when it comes to fixing your planet
not all planet quests can be finished completely just by fetch quests and crap though
which brings us to


==> PLANET SUBQUEST: DENIZENS

boss monsters, sometimes optional, sometimes not
all depends on your planet and your quest and whether or not you take the choice instead of killin' 'em outright
generally, if you can't finish your planet quests by doing the stuff your consorts ask you to
then your denizen's got something to do with it
and they're probably not gonna make it easy on ya
not recommended for the weak, faint of heart, or otherwise useless until...

(last, but certainly not least)



GOD TIER

this is it boys and girls
the big leagues
don't get much better than that
control of your aspect as dictated by your class
functional immortality
I mean you can still die, but you'll pop right back to life
unless your death was 'just' or 'heroic'
which of course means if you wanna stay alive, none of that martyr shit
unless you WANT to stay dead, in which case by all fucking means
only thing is that you can only get it by dying on your quest cocoon as far as I know
so for most of you♫
probably not happening unless it's by accident
it's supposed to be pretty fucking sweet though, so if some of you want to take the chance at ~not sucking~ for a change
then hey
here's your chance


that's pretty much all I got for now
knock yourselves out trying to add more
or figuring out your titles if you haven't yet
though I'm pretty sure I know most of Beta's


now, I've got a denizen to try and find, because mine sure as fuck isn't on my planet
so
responses to come at an as of yet undetermined time


and before some of you even start♫
just
fucking
DON'T

what
the fuck do you mean
ROGUES ARE USUALLY A FEMALE CLASS


Yeah you pretty much stopped reading right there.
artful_transgressor: (I'M NOT YELLING)

[personal profile] artful_transgressor 2013-05-09 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
okay lemme rephrase that
WHY THE FUCK AM I IN A CLASS USUALLY RESERVED FOR GIRLS

and dont eVen think about mocking me for this
cause i just read further and it sounds like youre in the same goddamn boat
artful_transgressor: (troll)

[personal profile] artful_transgressor 2013-05-09 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
ugh
are you seriously gonna get offended i assumed you might mock me about something im clearly not happy about
cause frankly that would be a goddamn safe assumption to make about MOST trolls
neVer mind trolls who clearly dont like me
are you seriously pissed that i figured youd react like most trolls would
artful_transgressor: (> Lyn: Be the sprite.)

[personal profile] artful_transgressor 2013-05-09 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)
granted
and i knew you knew that
but you might not haVe been bothered by it so you might not haVe cared

Oh, oh oh oh!
I need to figure... out wh4t doom is!
4nd um, then how... to ste4l it, yes!
Th4t shouldn't be too... h4rd to solve, no!

4nd um, Zur4he, I... think we should 4ll... try to god tier!
Th4t would be very... very very very good!
Especi4lly the not dying... p4rt of it, yes!
Or um, 4t le4st... less ch4nce of dying.

...4nd, wow, um, B4rd... of hope, wow, yes.
apiarycryptonaut: (Default)

[personal profile] apiarycryptonaut 2013-05-10 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, Thief, yes, Zur4he!
Thief of doom, yes!
4nd um, you re4lly... think so, m4ybe, yes?
I got 4 good... title, m4ybe, I did?

Oh, right, th4t p4rt.
Um, I wonder if... there's 4nother w4y, um.
Without dying, th4t is.
Even if the dying... isn't re4lly dying, no.
Dying 4lw4ys seems b4d...

i dunno
nothing iVe discoVered about the way this class works so far has been fucking useful to me in any significant way
like
iVe discoVered i can slow down enemies
which is useful i guess
but thats literally all iVe got going for me right now
i think im literally stealing time from them
but i cant actually do shit with the time iVe stolen
cause i cant use it on myself
and frankly im pretty fast naturally so slowing them down isnt exactly a necessity for me
so its like
just insultingly close to being totally pointless

i guess technically im able to giVe this time to other players
but fuck if i know how
i kinda think it may not be possible cause no ones eVen remotely nearby which is why i cant do it
but were all on completely different planets
and i haVent eVen heard from zirreh
and hes my client so hes the one whos either gonna show up on my planet or whose gate other players will haVe to come through to get here
so fuck knows when im actually gonna be in a position to help anyone

unle55 i do
artful_transgressor: (rogue of time)

[personal profile] artful_transgressor 2013-05-10 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
i dunno
maybe youre supposed to be
i dont eVen know
inspirational to other players?
which frankly doesnt seem at all suited to you
but that might mean im on the right track
my sprite told me something when i complained about my title
that sometimes theyre picked to challenge us
like making us do shit thats totally uncharacteristic for us
like for me
my title is all about stealing shit and then giVing it to other people
not exactly something iVe done a lot of
and im not good at working with other people in general

i guess
so are you talking about this denizen shit
or another kind of boss

speaking of
you didnt exactly elaborate on the choice when you were talking about em
and i might actually need to know cause uh
my consorts literally arent asking me to do anything for my planet quest at ALL
aside from just generally telling me i need to figure out how to bring night to a desert planet with an unsetting sun
they sure as hell haVent giVen me any suggestions as to how to do that

I, but, huh, Zur4he?
Bec4use rogues help others... I think, m4ybe, yes?
But um, I could... still help, I think!
Even 4s 4 thief!
If I c4n be... strong 4nd helpful, um!
Th4t me4ns I'm still... helping others, I think!

... ... ... ...
I don't know if... I like th4t, no.

what do you mean 6y tool
where did you even co11ect a11 thi5 info anyway
i didnt 5ee anything a6out lord5 or mu5e5 on the note5
artful_transgressor: (well fuck)

[personal profile] artful_transgressor 2013-05-12 02:38 am (UTC)(link)
heh
welcome to my life
nothing iVe learned about my title is much better
i mean i guess im doing stuff on a slightly more actiVe leVel than you
but none of it means anything anyway so that doesnt matter much

still
eVen if you hate the whole idea
and i dont blame you
'making these morons suck less' would actually be a key element to our surViVal
so if not you someones gotta do it if any of us want to surViVe

yeah
fuck knows at this rate
with all the glitches and weird shit happening
our end boss could be a massiVe tentacled monstrosity

oh
yeah guess there wasnt a whole lot you could specify then
how can you tell if your denizens on your planet or not
like i haVent seen mine
or any eVidence of one
but then again right now i cant fucking see shit anyway
