《A Fantasy in Time》Scenarios and help from Readers
Advertisement
I'm looking to make this as realistic as possible and would like some hints as to what others would do if they had the opportunity to be in a Virtual Reality MMORPG. I would ask that you write as if you are not familiar with the Type of VR that I have created but the usual other kind with levels, slightly less human acting NPCs (or not), fluffy rabbits all over the place at the town outskirts, and whatever else you can imagine.
I'm trying to integrate the MC actions with the actions of what real people would really do if given the chance to experience and play in a VR game. Some examples I can think of would be searching for their friends to go dungeon hunting with, checking the outskirts of the city, looking to join the mages guild, doing what Weed did and whacking away at scarecrows, etc. Please give as much detail as you would describing what your first few days of actions would be in a Virtual reality. Thanks!
The more people that respond then the richer and more detailed my writing will be. Also it will likely come out sooner as well.
(A/N) added 6/22. After reading what others have said, I have to admit that this is incredible Everyone! All this information will help immensely in fleshing out the world. Unless I am told otherwise I hope to use as much of your characters as possible in various parts of the story. Unfortunately unless they become close enough to the temperament I am looking for I won't use any for continuous companions of the MC but they will have brief interactions with him and his group, some, very important interactions. I would give you hints about the MC's future companions but I don't want to ruin the suspense.

If you wish to have a specific in game name applied to your character then please add it to the bottom of your comment. Also If you have a gender and character description preference then add that as well. If not then I'll try to find something that fits it. Thanks!
Also I plan to make some adaptations as they are required to fit my storyline. If you do not wish for that then please let me know at the bottom as well. For example Shadowwalker, I might need to have your character train partially in rouge/thief/infiltration skills in addition to Paladin and you'd at some point be needed for both.

MANTIS: On Hiatus
Two young adults who were childhood friends are killed amidst a pandemic worse than our own. After many years apart, Rihelah was on her way to see Michael, hoping to rekindle their friendship on the day they would both lose their lives. The pair are unwittingly selected to represent Earth in a test set forth by godlike beings who are intrigued that our world gave rise to complex life without having been intentionally seeded by their kind. Michael and Rihelah are reincarnated as predatory insects upon a distant planet called Edon. Elves, Dwarves, Dragons and their kin, Goblins, Ogres, Humans, Lizardfolk, Orcs, and sapient arthropods known as Enkelyn all inhabit this beautiful world touched by magic. The tiny mantids must survive terrified and very much alone upon arrival, while neither is aware that the other has also been reincarnated upon the same island. Naked in their new chitinous exoskeletons, they must now brave the terrors of an alien world's food chain. Each will benefit from their years of experience on Earth, but they must somehow find a balance between old lives and new. Moderate mindsets and peaceful values from a mostly safe and privileged life on Earth must now contend and somehow coexist with the strange physiology of a new and unfamiliar body as well as the violent aggressiveness of a predator's mind. To top things off, the pair are about to find themselves struggling with their inner turmoil while swept up by terrible conflicts they know nothing about. Both endure the hardships of their new lives while attempting to understand and make proper use of a mysterious and terse video-game-like System that pops status notifications into their vision from time to time, but initially has no useful interface. Some of the options they are presented with sound enticing, but as with everything else in life, each choice has benefits and drawbacks... Author's Note: This story makes many changes to the original version, and readers of Mantid will find that many things in Mantis are new and different; especially after the first few chapters. I've learned a ton from writing like a madman, and also from the RR community. I appreciate you guys! :)
8 209Bronze Sun: The Red Smith (LitRPG + Crafting)
Adrian had never started a fight in his life, but then his best friend stole his girlfriend. He knew it would be trouble when he tried to get her back, but he didn’t expect it would get him killed. He woke up in a bronze-age world full of magic, with a blacksmith’s hammer in one hand, and a pickaxe in the other. The higher-dimensional beings that sent him here have told him to break the world of Antium. It’s forbidden for anyone outside of the guilds to learn magic, so what better way to break everything than to use forbidden Red Magic to craft armor and weapons more powerful than Antium has ever seen? But before he can even craft his first piece of armor, he’ll have to fight his way out of the infested forest with nothing but a rusty sword and his smithing tools. He’s one of many that has been sent in to shake things up and breathe new life into a dying world. If the others are sent to shatter the world, then Adrian will be the one to build it back up to something glorious, even if he has to do it one bronze ingot at a time.UPDATE SCHEDULE:New Chapters are released every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
