§ is a modified Text-Based-RPG, in which you role-play out your actions in the world of Terra. You have stats in which you can increase, wield a vast assortment of weapons, and battle vicious monsters. Your actions will influence the way other non-playable-characters react to your presence, and whether or not they will choose to ally with you.
By making a diary, you will enter Terra at the capital city, Suryan. From there, you can then go to Soul Shadow and enter various locations. At those locations, you can choose from an action list at the begining, as well as role-play other events.
For all information on how the game is run, please read the OS by clicking here. Everything (or at least as much as we've thought-up) that you need to know is in that topic. Read it. If you don't understand something, please go to the RPG - Prelude board and ask for further elaboration. ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS, SUGGESTIONS, COMMENTS, ETC MUST GO ON THE RPG - PRELUDE BOARD!
[glow=red,2,300]FAQ's[/glow]
Q: How do i join?
A: Aside from having to be a member of the site, you must write a book in the Library, filling out the profilic data outlined in the OS. Once that is done, you are free to go to the § board and walk around towns and such.
Q: How do i get new weapons and armor?
A: That varies. Beginners will have to buy better equipment from shops around Suryan. When you're strong enough, you can find magic weapons in dungeons, or as rewards for quests.
Q: How do I equip my new weapons and armor?
A: In your profile, you have a section marked "Equipment". You then move the name of the sword, armor, shield, rune, etc. that you want to equip. Once it's equipped, the stats for the item are then configured for battle.
Q: When I went to make an account, there wasn't a category for max MP. Why is that?
A: There is no MP. Rather, we're using a system of points. Each magic spell or skill has a limit to how many times per battle it may be used (this is listed in the description). When in battle, you will only be allowed to use it x amount of times.
Q: I made my character specialize in Archery, but i want him to use melee weapons. How can i learn melee?
A: At trainers around Suryan, and other cities of Terra, you can find trainers who will train you in the art of all battle styles. Until you learn melee, your character cannot equip a sword.
Q: What do I use to buy things?
A: The currency is experience. When you defeat a monster or complete a quest, you gain experience. This experience is stored in your Overlord-post profile. When you buy something, Overlords will subtract EXP from your total.
Q: How can i tell what my overall level is?
A: You can't. Rather, you'll just have to use your judgement to know if you'll be able to take out another enemy.
Q: I have a bow/crossbow, but no arrows/bolts. How do i get some?
A: You don't. It's assumed that an archer will spend most of their battling using the ranged weapons, so you get an infinite supply.
