A warm spring day with birds humming amid the gentle rustle of leaves. Brisshal can be a very beautiful place this time of year. Unfortunately with the events that had just transpired, it is easy to forget the beauty within Terrasphere.
You had met up with several others, some you may know, others you may not. You all saw the random messages looking for asskickers and decided for one reason or another to check it out. Heading for the marked area in West Brisshal.
"YOOOOOO!"
Sarina was sitting by the stream with a small pile of fish in a basket next to her. She waved with one hand as her fishing line was being tugged on. Quickly grabbing it with both hands she pulled hard and the fish flew back into the forested path ahead.
Getting up without sliding into the stream. Sarina winds up her rod and set it on her shoulder. The fish sadly didn't make it back from the woods to her hand.
"So you guys are the ones ready for some fun...? Oh... hi green guy. I mean captain! I-I mean green guy I don't know very well. I didn't expect you to come here to just grind experience... Heheh."
The tomboy put her rod away and replaced it with her staff weapon. It was still the same as the day she spent training at the Hall of Heroes. Wiping one slimey fishy glove on her shorts, she held it out for anyone who'd like a knightly handshake... That's a thing, right?
"Pleased to meetcha, I'm Sarina and I am not affiliated with the Lion's Pride in any way whatsoever! I just want to beat the shit out of some gobbos! So I'm assuming you're into that too to be here? GREAT! "
Picking up the fish basket she fooled with her UI some as she continued.
"Don't be scared, it's just Starcalled things haha! I can't be dragging this along while we fight now, can I? What I'd do for something like this back home! So the idea is that there are a lot of gobbos all over West Brsisshal. With fewer people wandering the area they have their own little skirmishes with orcs and whatever when they aren't raiding Honeyhome."
Finished putting away her fish. Sarina smirked and spun her weapon.
"I saw a big group go through recently. Ripe for hunting! I heard stories of gobbos being OP as fuck years ago so now I'm pumped to punt them into the stratosphere! This is post Szofrit baby, and I'm feeling lucky! Let's have a high-stakes competition! I challenge all of you to a killing contest! Every gobbo is a point and whoever scores the most wins! Sound good? GOOD! LET'S GO ASSKICKERS!"
With that Sarina gave a wide-toothed nervous smile to Hanno that said "Please don't rat me out for unnecessary goblin war crimes!" and rushed into the woods.

Some Friendly Competition
Rendezvous by the stream...
- Playsheet: Use and link a playsheet. All selections are final once you make your first post.
- Word Count: 700 words excluding code.
- Post Speed: Roughly once per 48 hours. I will match your pace to a degree
- Fluid Time: Each character gets 1 post per cycle. There is no set posting order. Retroactive healing and protection are allowed, not retro buffing.
- Post Template: Please do not alter the [action*][/action*] and enemy/objective tracking portion of your post. These elements must be displayed as is at all times. NOTE: I am more lenient on this than any other narrator out there and I am the only one managing this event. So I'm okay with some spicing up... but do keep it clear.
- Comms: Limit of 3 posts per character, per cycle. Any communication can be done either by making a private comms thread or posting in the event's official comms thread.
- Rolls: All rolls must be done in the #event-rolls channel. If you roll and don't post before the damage phase, It doesn't count. One-liners are not an issue here so use them when you must.
- Thread Code: 1921
Code:[metercolor=0.0]blue[/metercolor][metertext=blue][inlinespoiler=Oversoul][0000/1000][/inlinespoiler][/metertext][metercolor=1.0]orange[/metercolor][metertext=orange][inlinespoiler=Food][100/100][/inlinespoiler][/metertext] [hp=100]100[/hp] (If you do not want to track Oversoul or Food you don't have to. It will be adjusted in the Party Section after every Damage Phase. If you choose not to track. Don't add these bars to your post. You may alter the code for these bars however you'd like including just using numbers. Be sure to keep the results clear.) [status] (This goes directly beneath the HP/Food/Oversoul bars.) [/status] (RP Post goes here) [action] (Rolls and actions go here. Feel free to change the roll box code as long as I can clearly see your results.) [/action] Build Sheet (you may optionally post your sheet in your header. Be sure it's clear)
-
- Introduction: This is a story-centric introduction cycle. No mechanics are in play. This is not a prep cycle so no actions may be taken to impact Cycle 1. You may view your character data and consider your build sheet now. Builds are locked on your first post of Cycle 1.
- Tips: Unless someone ooc asks for help. Focus on your own character's skill set and become proficient with it before expanding to how others may impact it. You can usually ignore the more complex abilities simply by not activating the free action that applies them. The food meter may or may not prove important going forward. It does not drain atm for any character besides Hanno due to his passive.
Objectives: Divergence is at hand. How well these Objectives are accomplished will impact the story development of the remaining cycles and ultimately this event's conclusion. You have enough energy and supplies to finish this by the end of Cycle 3!
- Objective: Defeat as many Goblin-type enemies as quickly as possible!
- Objective: A Player Character scores more enemy kills than Sarina!
- Objective: Sarina doesn't die once!

Starcalled Level 2When the time to face a Fated Moment comes to pass. Often the soul shines far brighter when it is ready to go further beyond. For those times in battle, there is Oversoul.
All of your points together are recorded at the end of every cycle. On your turn, you may use special Oversoul Free Actions, consuming the points you have personally stored.
Now that the Starcalled have reached level 2, individual Unique Oversoul Abilities have been unlocked! You can use these as soon as you have built up the required OP needed. Abilities listed as [SEALED] are unavailable until a later point in the story. These abilities do not consume OP. These abilities are based on the build, tags, title, racial traits, and DAs you register into an LFG. Once acquired these will be formatted similarly to Generic Unique ability cards (yellow) in the builder. They will reflect the version of your character when they registered only. Always be sure you have your build information up to date for the most appropriate abilities to be allotted to you.
Act as a team and use Oversoul to swing victory from the jaws of defeat Starcalled!
Methods of building Oversoul:
- Every point of HP/SP damage dealt, HP Healed, or Buff Applied to any amount of enemies or allies= 1 OP
- Half of the total damage received during the damage phase = 1 OP
- Every ally tagged (max 5) = 10 OP
- Enemy defeated = 25 OP to kill taker, 10 OP to the rest of the party.
- Important: All Oversoul is accumulated at the end of the damage phase after enemy attacks are dealt out. So you do not actually have the points you gain until they are given out by the DM/Narrator at that time.
System Details | Gobal 0 OP Cost Actions | Oversoul Global Free Actions

- NPC armor type only affects their armor ability (Surge, Twice, Immortal), not their HP.
- NPC actions are limited. This limit is set for the entire thread unless a player sheet revision and armor ability reset occurs. NPC should be considered still active in story but mechanically only assist with these actions. By using the comms thread, you may make a request for an NPC (@Pandora*) to take action or to conserve their action for a later cycle.
- NPCs take their turn at the end of every cycle unless a unique passive or ability is in play.
- Morale affects how NPCs approach many things including how fast their health drops.
- NPC are not obligated to remain in an event until the end and may exit a thread due to morale or plot reasons.
