— 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. Besides, it seems this has occurred past month already-- Maybe some people who have been here for longer than you may help.

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/ Neighborhood woes
The government of Aqures Ixen is very sorry, but it seems there are too many of you Heroes of Light. Hence why there is no free houses left in district dedicated to housing you. This may also be why you're not alone in the house that was given to you. Hopefully you're not living with a mad villain plotting to take over the world late at night, and hopefully your neighbor isn't a singer who doesn't know how to sing. On the bright side, you may have someone very cool living with you and an artist next door! It's just not likely.

4/ Crystallis 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 Lure© so you can go and capture your own. You can find details on Chocobo Capture here.

5/ 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.

6/ A thing called Strike
In spite of how old-fashioned it is, Mognet is very useful and odds are that you may have become dependent on it. Hopefully not, because one local tradition seems to be Mognet Strikes. Nobody knows any more whether the Moogles have legitimate reasons to go on strike or if they are just lazy. But today, Mognet is down, and to get information you have no choice but going to the public board in the third district or in taverns.

7/ 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.

8/ 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.

9/ 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!

10/ 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.

11/ 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.

12/ Wild Card
Don't like the options offered here? Go crazy and choose what you want to do in this world!

thegreatninja: (Weeee)

Its always about food >.<

Yuffie grinned and nodded. "Alright then!" She ran forward and jumped back up into the tree quickly. It took a minute for her to collect her things and then find her tan cloak. Once everything was messily stuffed into the bad she gave Baralai a smile and waved him over to join her.

"Mission start! Find lunch!" Mooshoo quietly followed, knowing exactly what her plan was. He was clearly not happy with it. "We hunt!"
promiseofnewyevon: (I don't think it's supposed to look like)

I know, right? XD Yuffie, where do you keep all of it? My guess is in her boobs.

[personal profile] promiseofnewyevon 2014-08-27 05:44 pm (UTC)(link)
"Wait, that's what we're doing?" How dangerous was that, he thought to himself. Granted that he was a bit famished himself but that was a strange mission to begin with. He was reminded of Gippal on his playful days.

Then she mentioned hunting. "I'm...confused. Are we hunting a beast or hunting for a place that serves meals?"
thegreatninja: (attention)

HAHAHA... Yes

[personal profile] thegreatninja 2014-08-27 08:27 pm (UTC)(link)
"Hunting for food!" Yuffie had no money and as she saw it, in order to get food, you needed money. So they were going to hunt, hopefully find a monster of some kind and then eat it.

She waved one arm in the air like a cheer and smiled happily as she walked down the road. After a few strides she stepped off the path and into the woods.
promiseofnewyevon: (Oh great.)

Wow, where was my brain yesterday?

[personal profile] promiseofnewyevon 2014-08-28 10:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Baralai's shoulders sank visibly then. He remembered his time at the Bikanel Outpost that they had to hunt since rations were given a lower priority to water. It was either carry canteens of water in their packs or food. They made the choice to bring water instead between the four of them and it was Baralai that was left to carry them. It was a hazing for the young priest because he was the youngest and Paine needed to have her hands free for the spherecamera.

He shuddered inwardly at the thought but they were good memories. "Right, I was afraid you were going to say that." He said flatly.
thegreatninja: (annyed)

In your head!

[personal profile] thegreatninja 2014-08-29 08:51 pm (UTC)(link)
"Come on it won't be so bad." She took another few strides forward before stopping and dropping out of sight. Yuffie preferred to jump into trees but in this case it was easier to hide in the brush. She pulled Baralai down annoyed at his slowness and gestured in the distance towards a monster.

"There" Her voice was hushed as she pointed.
promiseofnewyevon: (I'm not impressed.)

Of course it was. It's why I can never find it. :P

[personal profile] promiseofnewyevon 2014-08-29 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Baralai knew better than to grunt that could potentially scare their, or rather her, chosen prey away. What he saw seemed much too large for even the two of them. It almost seemed a waste.

His face contorted into an expression of shock and horror. "Are you serious?" He mouthed without using his voice.
thegreatninja: (attack)

IM SO TIRED lol

[personal profile] thegreatninja 2014-08-31 06:25 pm (UTC)(link)
She just nodded at him with a smile. Her grip on her blade tightening as she jumped up from the bush. The blade left her hand and went spinning towards the beast. Luckily he didn't see it coming but the hit only slowed him down.

The beast turned and roared at Yuffie as her blade circled back and returned to her hand.
promiseofnewyevon: (fighting stance)

[personal profile] promiseofnewyevon 2014-08-31 09:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Baralai covered his face with his hand. He couldn't stand to watch if she fumbled. She was much too active for his own good and her energy was tiring. He parted his index finger to peek through to see if the beast was charging forward, and he was right.

His hand left his face and grabbed for his staff on his back. "Great, you just angered it instead." He stood up and readied himself for battle. The staff was tucked behind his back with his free arm bent in a ready position with two fingers extended upward that touched his forehead. He could already tell that this wasn't going to be an easy fight and watched the stampeding beast as it crushed the brush under its weight and forceful movements.

As it was about to lunge forwards, Baralai spun out the the way and swept the staff in a spin to land the weighted end on the back of its head. He continued the spin and turned the staff to create a shield around him through the momentum in case it doubled back.
