The Ultimate Glitch: The Dragon Curse's Tale

The Storyline

In 2012 Nitendo launched it's best game in history, an online adventure game with virtual reality characteristics. Players of this game could create characters of all races and classes to conquest and go on adventures alone or with groups. The game system had the ability to connect to the internet so thousands of people over the world could launch themselves, together, on journeys they may never be able to explore in real life.

Unfortunatly for them, six months after they released the game to the public, tragedy struck. The computer systems responsible for the maintainment of the game was hacked and commandeered. The company lost all control of the game, causing a code red to strike through the corporation. But the terror didn't end there. . .

Within an hour of being taken, the game trapped the players inside, causing the gamers to slip into a coma while being forced to fight for their lives in the virtual world. Soon after a broadcast was reflected in the sky of the virtual world. Someone under the username 'Dragon Curse' announced the imprisonment of the gamers and warned them not to attempt to escape. One group volunteered to go after the hacker and reclaim the game for the sake of the Nitendo corporation as well as their own lives. Only one question remains. . .

Will YOU join this brave group?

Rules:

+ Follow the rules of Gaia as well as the guild rules
- No godmodding, every character has a flaw, even the Hacker
+ Title you character pm's as 'It's A Virtual World' so I know you've read the rules
- please do not kill people off unless you have their permission. Should you get someone's permission both of the participating parties must inform me of the agreement so I know both sides have agreed.
+ Please post frequently, at least twice a week, unless you notify me or extended absence, I will remove your character or give away the spot.
- NO ONE LINERS! I can understand writer's block but I refuse to accept one liners. If I see you post a one liner I will ask you to expand it, in the event that you do not fix the problem, I will delete your post. Repeated offenses will result in the user to be blacklisted and removed from the RP.
+please add 'augh! my eyes' smiley in your profile submission so I know you have read the rules
-I reserve the right to change or add rules
+be consistant with your characters. Don't have them be rude and obnoxious one moment and then super sweet the next. Unless they have an illness. . . then it's acceptable.
- Please be UNIQUE with your characters and don't try to exceed other player's characters.
+Do NOT skip the bio part of the character profile or write only a little bit in it. I want to have a decent background. Wimpy bios will result in declined characters. As a fair warning, I will inform you that I take bios as sort of an audition piece, like a writing sample. If you have a weak bio I will assume your posts will also be weak. I will probably make suggestions on how to improve both, so if I do please don't take it personally.
-I'm not mean, I promise, I just hate weak character lines
+Please do your best at spelling. I know I'm not excellent in that particular area, but I try to run my posts through spell check each time I reply or google the appropriate spelling if I'm not sure mine is correct. I do know that some e-mail services offer spell check, AOL and I believe yahoo, so if you need to just type your post into a blank e-mail and then copy and paste it to Gaia. ^+^
-Posting styles are lovely but not required. Just don't make pictures or words super huge where they stretch the screen or so tiny that you can't see/read them
+Keep cybering out of the forum. If you feel you must have that sort of scene, take it to the PMs or I WILL black list you
-Have FUN! biggrin

She has gone though much of the game, but because she only has weak weapons, or at least they're weak in her hands, she needs people to fight the monsters while she heals them.

She can sometimes be spacey and air-headed but when she's on a mission she is focused and strong willed.
Original purpose in game: To make it easier for the players to move from town to town. Her character's story line is that she ran a School for Adverturing Quester's. Once you went through her "schooling," a short tutorial on how to navigate around, you recieved a map. The next time you visited her school you recieved a compass. Each time you revisited the school for a "lesson" you recieved a new item or ability. After getting all the rewards from the school you learned about the "Uncharted" areas of the map. It's said that these areas are impossible to draw and later Alcide informs you that she's frequents these areas out of curiosity.

I am outside, and I've been waiting for the sun, with my wide eyes.
I've seen worlds that don't belong,
my mouth is dry with words I cannot verbalize,
tell me why we live like this?

Keep me safe inside,
your arms like towers;
tower over me.

Yeah, because we are broken.
What must we do to restore
our innocence and all the promise we adored?
Give us life again cause
we just wanna be whole.

~2 weeks before~

Antigone waited patiently in the center forum of Cailan, the main city of the virtual world. She had been wanting to head to Findabhair but the world's teleporter, Alcide, informed her promptly that for the safety of the gamers all teleporting gateways had been sealed. So, to pass time, she sat on the edge of a large waterfountain that marked the center of the city and watched people. She frowned, leaning back and looking up at the blue sky. What could be happening that could risk the safety of the gamers? Her question seemed to be answered as the blue of the sky darkened suddenly and the wind picked up. What the. . .

~Present day~

It had been almost three weeks and still nothing had been done to stop the dictator that had taken over the game. Antigone cursed her luck, as those who had been inside Cailan during the hacking were kept in the city's forum as more 'saftey' percautions. People, mostly paniced and upset, argued about what they should do and what actions should be taken. Many tried over and over again to log off or somehow disconnect from the game. Other simply denied everything was happenening. But the short-fused few that were yelling over each other and pushing others around to try to gain the attention of the authorities around them were the most dangerous. It was like a pack of wild animals that were suddenly informed they were going to die. All sense drained from them and the shoved and hit each other for dominance. The Natives of the city grew worried, and Antigone couldn't blame them.

It wasn't until one of the large males shoved into the frail Alcide that Antigone decided it was time for her to step in. Angrily, she pulled the man away from the Native and helped her up. "Look, just because you're too afraid you won't get home in time to see today's episode of Young and the Restless, does not mean you can go bulling around and knocking people over. It's pointless and gets us no where." It was a ballsy move, but anyone who knew Antigone would expect it. "What we need to do is calmy assemble a team that can go find this Dragon Curse and find a way to get control back." Just when she thought she was able to talk sense into the people, the crowd let out shouts of protest and began to throw out their ideas. Annoyed, Antigone stepped up on the edge of the foutain and took a deep breath so she could project louder. "Shut up!" She roared, silencing, much to her surprise, everyone. "I'm willing to be the first volunteer. Anybody else willing to joing me can meet me at the Inventory Shop. Everybody else should stay here in Cailan until we can confirm it's safe." She didn't wait for answers or contradictions, instead she hopped down from her spot and headed towards the Inventory Shop. "Dímheabhraigh*."

Lock the doors,
because I'd like to capture this voice,
that came to me tonight,
so everyone will have a choice
and under red lights,
I'll show myself it wasn't forged.
We're at war, we live like this.

Keep me safe inside,
your arms like towers;
tower over me.

Because we are broken,
what must we do to restore
our innocence and
all the promise we adored?
Give us life again
cause we just wanna be whole.

She had to admit it, the crowd had made her irritable, and so had being stuck in a game for three weeks. So, as she pushed through she couldn't help but think that just a month before she was able to easily fly past these cowards and defeat monsters they ran away from. "Excuse me, please." She said, remaining poliet despite her anger.

Once she reached the shop, she replenished her supplies and browsed around, waiting for others to join her. She turned when she heard footsteps and wings fluttering. "Magic user or healer." She said, taking a guess as to what this young woman was. "Are you here to join me?" No use in beating around the bush.
