— Most importantly, have fun!
1/ Welcome to the world of Crystallis! You have seen reality shatter and collapse around you, in the depths of the void you found a Crystal and now you are in the city of Aqures Ixen, surrounded by Moogles and people as lost and confused as you are. On the bright side, everyone thinks you're a hero! On the downside, they expect you to save the world. Maybe their expectations are a bit too much. Thankfully, you're not abandoned to your fate as a Moogle explains to you everything you need to know. Maybe it's time to get to know your companions in misfortune. 2/ Do you like your new life? No? Well, either way, you better get used to it, to your new powers, to your new house, to the ball of fur that follows your every steps—Who knows, maybe you'll even make some friends here. Besides, even if everyone expects you to save the world, fighting isn't the only way to do so. Maybe you could open a shop to help and properly equip your friends who are actually eager to fight. Maybe you could try and gather people who think diplomacy can stop war, you could even start your own researches on the Crystals— Or you could make sure your house is the prettiest in all of Aqures Ixen. Anything is possible. 3/ Ukulele de Chocobo Upon arrival, your Moogle gave you a map of Crystallis. This world may be a bit big for you to explore, so why not go to the Chocobo Farm and ask for a Chocobo? These big birds can't fly, but they're much more efficient than horses when it comes to travelling. Maybe it's your first time riding a Chocobo; it might be a good idea to have someone with you in case something goes wrong. Or maybe the old man at the farm didn't have any Chocobos left and gave you some Chocobo-Bait© so you can go and capture your own. 4/ A thing called Mognet Hopefully you weren't used to Internet and cellphones back home. Otherwise, you might be a tiny bit confused when your Moogle returns to you with a stack of letters. Or maybe someone else's Moogle is coming to you with a voice message it learnt by heart and is now going to recite to you with a lot of Kupo. That's how the "network" works here. 5/ I believe I can fly~ You are on an Airship! Airships regularly depart from Aqures Ixen and stop by most major cities in the world, so they're the perfect means of transportation for you to go and explore this world. You can go anywhere in a matter of hours — One can only hope you don’t have motion sickness. 6/ Exploration Enough expository banter. Now is the time to explore. Maybe rather than spending most of your time in Aqures Ixen, you'd rather spend it living in Balicea, or betting on Chocobo Races in Trano Golsaucia. Or maybe you'd rather go and explore some ancient ruins that may hold some precious information. With Airships and Chocobos at your disposal, you can go nearly anywhere that isn't under imperial control; unless you have a death wish of course. 7/ Random Encounter You were minding your own business walking around, and suddenly monsters attacked you! Time to put to use the skills you've learned with your Jobs! Alternatively, maybe this encounter isn't random at all, and you have been sent on a mission to kick some imperial asses in the war confronting the Heran Empire and the Republic of Esdham. Good luck! 8/ Getting Jobs is hard It all started when you asked Jessie to give you a new Job. What could and should have been a formality, quickly turned into a trial. All you wanted was a Job, and here you are in the wild, hunting for a Malboro Vine. Or maybe you are in some ancient and decrepit ruins looking for an artifact. Or yet again, maybe she simply asked you to assist her in her researches on the Crystals. Getting new Jobs is not easy. Consider yourself happy though, at least you don't have to do that alone. 9/ The world is subject to unrelenting pain and suffering… This is why you should play a game. After all, there are things a lot more important than saving the world: Blitzball is one of them. Triple Triad is another. Why don't you take a break and do something different for once; anyone wanting to play Blitzball is given a special potion allowing them to breath underwater, whereas someone who wants to play Triple Triad should have no difficulties finding veterans more than happy to get rid of their low level cards. 10/ Wild Card Don't like the options offered here? Go crazy and choose what you want to do in this world! |

Why can't she use earth?
Why can't she use earth!?
Ugh, it's so weird to only be able to use three of the four elements. At least her favorite one was still there. But this magic was...weird. Different. More limited than what she was used to. Well. She'd have to improvise.
"Hey you!" she called out. "Yes, you with the pointy thing. How about moving so I can finish that monster off before it rips your stomach open?"
Already, the three foot tall newly job assigned black mage is charging a Thunder spell in her hands.
Re: 7
"Thanks"
He looked over at his companion curiously. Another warrior of light perhaps?
Re: 7
Congratulations, human, you can follow instructions better than half of the krewes she's worked with.
The Thunder spell is released and the monster falls over in a heap of twitching limbs. Zojja examined its body then spoke as if Tiz wasn't even there.
"This magic is effective, albeit simple. Kupu, take a note. Primitive, yet powerful."
"Kupo." A moogle sitting a few feet away in the grass took out a parchment and a quill to do just that. It was only then that Zojja seemed to remember the presence of Tiz.
"Human boy, are you from around here or are you yet another confused, displaced sucker who got thrown around the space-time continuum?"
Re: 7
"I'm not from around here."
He picks up his sword, clipping it behind his back. "You're a scientist?"
Re: 7
"Correct. I am an asura. We are a race of scientists. Though I'm loathe to say a lot of us are terrible at it." She extended out a clawed hand to Tiz. "My name is Zojja, genius."
Re: 7
From what Tiz could gather she seems to be competent. "What were you testing?"
Re: 7
"The magic of this place, basically. Naturally, in a different world, it operates under different rules. I need to find out what those rules are, then I can find out how to manipulate them."
All the while, the moogle in the grass continued to scribble.
"Until then, I'll play along with this...Hero of Light thing."
Re: 7
What she said about the magic made sense. It is a smart way to look at it.
Re: 7
Re: 7
"Do you think there is a way back without becoming these hero's?"
Re: 7
Zojja paused for a moment to examine her moogle's notes. After deeming them 'acceptable,' she shoved it back into Kupu's tiny paws.
"Not only that, we have no guarantees that becoming heroes will allow us to go back home. If this world is so desperate for champions it has to pull from other worlds to get them, do you think it would let us go that easily?"
Re: 7
Tiz always had a heart for others and he can't leave those in need behind. However his obligation to Anges comes first.
