《Breakout: The Evolution of a High School Nerd》Characters Status Window Explanation
Advertisement
Hey guys! I’m going to consider this short little Section one of the 2 Chapters I was going to upload today for 2 reasons;
1) I believe that knowledge on the basic mechanics on this world are needed, and it would be simple to just post it all here so you can refer to it in the future.
2) I actually got into a small wreck today after I uploaded Chapter 2, and had to spend a really long time putting a new front bumper on my car (I bought a new bumper last week because I wanted a racing one for looks on my crappy car. And because the bumper I was using was held onto my car with duct tape) The wreck just made me change it faster, but thankfully I already had the bumper at this time.
ANYWAYS! Mechanics, here we go.
Let’s start off with a basic look at the Status Window. For this example, I will be using the first Status Window that Soul uses in Chapter 2…
Status WindowName:Soul AdicousAlignment:NeutralLevel:1Class:Hell-Forged HeroRace:Might Be HumanGender:Possibly Male?TitlesThe Ugly

Name - The name of the person using the Status Window. Keep in mind EVERYBODY can use the Status Window, not just the Chosen. It’s a World Trait.
Alignment - This is the basic “Are you Good/Bad?” Of course there will be more than just Good/Bad, there will be more interesting ones such as “Purely Sinister, Heavenly Pure, etc.

Level - Everybody upon entering the world Friht will start off with a level of 1. When a Character levels up, he/she receives +1 in every Stat the Character currently has, and 5 Bonus Points which can be added to BASIC STATS. For example, you could add Bonus Points to Charm, Strength, Vitality, Agility, etc; but you couldn’t to Leadership, Endurance, etc. Notice the MC doesn’t have these. Like in a video game, the MC must acquire these while in the world of Friht. While IRL he has endurance from being bullied by Adam, it doesn’t carry over to this world.
Class - Characters Class could be a multitude of things. While the MC has a Class called Hell-Forged Hero, a simple resident of Friht can have a Class like Farmer, King, Merchant, etc.
CLASSES CAN CHANGE WHENEVER IT BECOMES NECESSARY. IF A EVIL CHARACTER BECOMES TOO GOOD I COULD MAKE HIS/HER CLASS CHANGE, WHILE IF HE/SHE BECOMES TO EVIL I CAN DO VICE VERSA. Keep in mind this is an example.
Race and Gender don’t really need explanation. In the MC’s case, since he’s so ugly the system can’t really tell what he is ATM.
Titles - A description of something pertaining to the Character. Can be gained in any sort of way; while some can be possessed by everyone, some are special and can only be obtained by a certain individual. An example would be the King of Depoh would have the Title “King of Depoh. He will be the only one with this Title. TITLES CAN BE REMOVED. If the MC gets sexy then he can’t really be “The Goblin” anymore.
Fame - Gained when you do Good.
Infamy - Gained when you do Bad
I believe Health, Mana, and Stamina are self-explanatory, so I will not explain these.

STATS:
The MC has REALLY LOW STATS as you might have noticed. The reason for this is because when the Chosen entered Friht, they gained Stats equal to their capabilities on Earth. The MC had virtually NO capabilities, so I made his stats as such.
All Stats are also self-explanatory; Strength is a Character's Strength, Agility is Agility, etc… what you do need to know is how they correlate with the Status Window.
PLEASE NOTE I’M DOING IT A LITTLE DIFFERENTLY FROM OTHER PEOPLE.
Strength - Gives 10 points to Stamina per Point in Stat.
Agility - Gives a .05 increase in Stamina Regen per Point in Stat.
Vitality - Gives 10 points to Health per Point in Stat. Also gives a .05 increase in Health Regen per Point in Stat.
Intelligence - Gives 10 points in Mana per Point in Stat.
Wisdom - Gives a .05 points increase in Mana Regen per Point in Stat.
Luck is there for shits and giggles. It has no meaning in this Fiction, but I want it there anyways.
Charm is basically a Characters looks. I added this for fun too, but I will use it anyways.
The last thing is Elemental Resistance, and that’s a given too.
P.S. - If you ever notice a mistake, please feel free to point it out, and I will fix it in the future. Thanks!

Flap Merganser: Space Duck
This story began as joke to troll some dude on reddit, but I fell in love with the premise and kind of went crazy writing without any direction or planning. Luckily for me, I spent a couple months convinced I was dying and stepped away from the project. I'm not dying by the way, at least not any more than in the traditional sense. But during that period of inner turmoil, I was able to step back and realize I wasn't too thrilled with the direction this was going. So I have relaunched this project under the name Duck Around and Find Out. Some elements will be the same, and some early chapters may be pretty close to what was in the original draft, but I wanted to get into the action with a bit more haste. That being said, I'm going to leave this up here for now so that you can see how this whole project started. So read it if you want to. Or don't. I don't really care. I'm just happy I don't actually have a terminal cancer.

Upon Blazing Wings
A distant land. A declining empire. A society where the strong rule over the weak. Li Jie, a destitute boy whose only desire is to cure his ailing mother, desires strength over anything else to prevent himself and his mother from being crushed like insects in the face of the cruel men who inhabit his world.After witnessing his friend being struck a fatal blow by a ruthless cultivator for coming to his rescue, a dormant power lying within Li Jie awakens and offers the boy power in exchange for completing its only request: """"Burn the Heavens to the ground upon your blazing wings!"Witness this story of cultivators and magical beasts, of brutality and friendship, of earth-shaking talent and sky-shattering skill. Witness the legend of Li Jie!-----Upon Blazing Wings is a xianxia (Chinese for """"immortal hero"""") story, taking heavy inspiration from I Shall Seal the Heavens by Er Gen as well as other famous xianxia stories. For those well-versed in the genre, the story should seem familiar. However for those who are new, the culture and technical terms may be bit alien at first. I will possibly post a glossary explaining some of the details if necessary, but hopefully you will be able to explore and understand the world with me as I write about it.

Black Meridian
Here's a fact about humans: They are intelligent, versatile creatures with a tendency for murder and vice. Zeta, a swordsman from a villa at the summit of Greenwich Mountain, has heard many stories about the "Sigma World," the colloquial term for any and all things superpowered in the world. He's also heard of the many tragedies, as well as the many wonders humankind has created in its history, even if he has yet to see it in person. Following the philosophy of his teacher, Gin Kagan, Zeta intends to become a "Servant of Humanity," in an endeavor to protect mankind from its gravest threats, from power-hungry sigma-users, but most importantly, from itself. He's going to need a lot of allies to pull that off, even if he doesn't understand that just yet. This story is originally published at www.sigmacentral.wordpress.com. Verification that I am the author of this story can be found here. Please leave feedback in either the comments or a review. I'd like to improve as much as possible before I get too deep into this story.
