Welcome to my Maple Story Journal. Here I will chronicle all of my adventures as my characters in MS. Please Feel free to comment and give suggestions too. This is my first time at a MMORPG.

I have been playing RPG's since 1985 (well, that's a little too soon...I was barely born then). I love RPG's and I find them the most rewarding gameplay. I am a bit of a newbie in MS, so I would apreciate a little assistance if I need it.

Thanks and enjoy your stay in my journal.

[x]Name: Betsu
[x]Class: Rouge (thief)
[x]Level: 14
[x]Goals: to be able to fight her way to Kerning city without purposefully dying to teleport there

This is my first MS character. She is quite the strong one (for a thief class that is). I have enjoyed playing with her and she is probably going to be my mose played with character on MS. I want to get her hair changed when the Change Shop is open because that hair is so cliche and boring.

This is where I will update my position when I leave MS on an almost daily basis, so you can track my journey across the island into uncharted areas. If you look closely, you can see a little figure tracking each character on the map

[x] Betsu's Current Position: Victoria Road - Thicked Beside the Beach II

If someone were to ever want to draw any of my characters, I will place them here. When people from MS draw my character, I will in turn draw theirs! Yay for Fan-Art!

Background


Since this is my first journal entry, I guess I should update thus far. Well, I started MS about 2-3 days ago when I was in the Art Freebie Forum. I saw Emi's request and I was like, "Hmmmm, looke like a cuter version of RO." I checked it out and downloaded it.

4 hours later (yeah, even on calbe connection it took that long) I finally installed it. I loaded it up and struggled to connect when the servers were being screwy. I created Betsu (my first character)

^--Betsu--^


From there I went on to play the game. I leveled up like a fiend. I wanted to be at least lvl 10 before I left Maple Island. Since I've been RPG-ing since the dawn of time, I kind of knew what to do...so it was easy to get into the "leveling-up-groove."

Then I met Mahumoud. He was my first "friend" on MS. We partied and began kicking arse all over the place. I had to leave the game because I had to go in to work early, but we vowed to train together again the next day.

The next day came, and I logged on. Mahumoud whispered to me that I should come to him to train. I agreed. He said he was in Perion. At that time I had no earthly idea where that was (heck, i didn't even know how to access my map yet). Naievely, I agreed and left Maple Island at lvl 11 toward Perion.

I made it to Lilith Harbor and was complete overwhelmed and lost. He came to Lilith and told me to follow him to Perion. I agreed again...naively. As I followed him, I noticed monsters that were taking 75+ damage to me. I was totally scared and unsure of what he was doing. We made it almost to Perion when he died.

He friggin died on me. He didn't stay and talk to me, he left. He didn't whisper to me to stay put and he was coming. He just logged off after he died. I waited for 30 minutes for him to come back.

I was alone surrounded by blue mushrooms and monkies. I desperately wanted a little green snail to slide by so I could at least have a chance to kill it.

But, I'm brave. I healed and jumped in headstrong. I could make it to Perion if it was the last thing I was gonna do. I was only equipped with my Beginner Axe and a Green Cotton Shirt and Leather Sandals. I was NOT prepared for what happened to me next.

Though I was only lvl 11, I didn't lose my edge. I would corner a monster by itself and whail on it with my axe. I got several green mushroom tops and a pig ribbon. But, I did the worst thing I could have thought of.

I was trying to get back to Lilith because moving forward was infinately harder...so I was climbing down a rope...when I saw it. It was a pit (literallly a pit) filled with Green Slimes, Green Mushrooms, and Ribbon Pigs. I was heading back up the rope to find anothe route when one of those damned pigs knocked me off the rope and into the pit. I was hit for 60-85 damange each time and I couldn't jump and grab the rope.

I died.

Then, I was teleported to Kerning City. It was very different from the happy towns on Maple Island and Lilith. I was kind of scared and excited. BUt mostly mad because I was left to fight alone. I then blocked Mahoumod from my list and explored the city. I found out that it was the thief city (the class I had picked before I started the game) and that I needed more DEX before I could become a Rogue.

So I did the only thing I could. I bought new weapons and set out to get leveled up so I could get some DEX. I remembered that those monsters out there were kicking my butt, so I opted for taking a taxi back to Lilith (cost me 1,000 mesos *tear*).

Once back in Lilith, logged off and went to sleep. I had enough defeat and dissapointment from MS for the night.

Friday ~ January 14, 2005


Well, after not playing MS for a day I was going through withdrawls. I loaded it up this morning at 5:00 am. I created a new character named Rieza (I'll upload her pic later) and she's gonna be my smexy archer girl.

I chose Betsu again to play with since I didn't wanna start a new character while I was kind of sleepy. I went to get some potions and whatnot from the shoppes and headed out (looking like a total n00b with my Maple Island gear still equipped).

Lucky for me, I have high luck! As I was fighting monsters around the Thicket around Lilith, I got a butt-load of items from them. I got lots of ore, some gem-stone pieces, lots of ornaments, Omok pieces, and best of all a Two-Handed Axe.

When I tell you that axe was the best thing that happened to me, I'm not lying. I bore down on those monsters with the fury of Hell. I leveled up to 12 and just knew I had enough DEX to be a thief. I did!

I edited my stats and took a taxi back to Kerning. I became Thief and I was very happy. I took a taxi back to Lilith because I didn't want to take a chance in dying and getting my EXP taken away.

I went to my favorite Thicket (number III) and I was pwning those stumps (my favorite monster currently) when I met Honey.

I met her earlier when I tried to sell her some arrows because I have over 800 of each kind. She declined and I left that area and went to the next. I had been fighting and was resting on a floating isle thing when she came to heal by me.

I told her that I'd give her the arrows for free since I couldn't sell them. She declined again. We stood there healing for about 2 minutes before anyone said anything. Then she asked if i was Peiony. I didn't even know what that was. She laughed and said it was another word for Phillipion. Then she asked if some other guy was Peiony. I didn't know him, but I had congratulated him on lvl-ing up (I like doing that...it makes people feel special). His response to me was "TY, po!".

Honey then told me tha "po" was a sign of respect in the Phillipino language. I was intreagued. I love learning languages. She then asked if she could teach me some words. I was thrilled!

Let me see if I can remember without looking at the paper. Ummm, I can't! Lol, I'll post it when I get home then! But she taught me how to say "How are you doing?" and "I love you". She also tole me that you referr to older by "ate" (pronouced 'ah-teh'). I think that's neato.

So we decided to party up and level together. She was a lvl 14 Archer (so cool!) and I was only 12 Rogue. We bagan fighting stumps and slimes together. It was cool and she was much friendlier than Mahuomud.

I leveled up and she told me "Congraulations!" and I responded "Thanks, po!" She kind of laughed that I used the respectful term like that random boy earlier.

We moved on toward Kerning because she had business there. Along the way, we met Asdf15 (one of her friends from Canada! How neato...I partied with a Filipino and a Canadian). Right after meeting him, she had to leave and told us to stay until she returned. Lol, kind of awkward for two strangers randomly parting together!

So we did what everyone in a party does....we fought together...then changed channels and fought more while waiting for Honey to return. She finally returned with like 2 HP. I dunno what she did, but she barely made it back.

We fought monsters together as a party until about 6:45 am or so. But they had to go to school...

I headed back to Lilith Harbor. But I died without my party *tear*. Since we were near Kerning I returned there. I looked at my items and was shocked! I had tacked up nearly 10,000 mesos fighting!

It was time for some new gear. I went and got some basic "thief gear"....a Black Cap, Dream Shir, Dream Pants, and Garnier (I can finally shoot those stars!)

I headed out to level up since I was at 90%. I reached level 13 and decided to call it a night since it was almost 7:30 am and my younger brother's alarm for school was going off.
