Welcome to Gaia! ::

gaia_crown [ YOU ARE A MINIPET ]: Unfortunately for you, in addition to being in entirely unfamiliar yet oddly colourful lands, you are a freaking minipet. Like in the Fear and everything. While students and Horsemen might have suffered these consequences before (see the Alpaca incident), for Hunters, this is something of a new sensation: in fact, they cannot summon their weapons at all, any less than students or horsemen can use their Fear attacks. No, they are EXACTLY, other than a few physical quirks here and there distinguishing themselves from what they SORT OF looked like, a minipet. And there is only one way a minipet fights: by battling. With moves.
- You can choose ANY MINIPET existing on site to be your character as a minipet. You CANNOT choose SE's that do not belong to you, "joke" pets, OR rare elites. Your minipet will NOT evolve so choose a stage carefully. PLEASE DO NOT USE UNRELEASED PETS.

gaia_crown [ MINIPET BATTLING, CHOOSING AN ELEMENT ]: Minipets actually can talk in their own language! They probably sound REMOTELY like their former selves, REMOTELY, though its probably at this point really hard to tell friend from foe. And what does it even matter who is what if they cannot escape from being a minipet?
- To initiate any battle, simple QUOTE YOUR TARGET and roll 1d4. That is pretty much the damage you to your opponent. ALL CHARACTERS HAVE 30 HP. PS: You kind of suck because you're level 1.
- You must also choose an ELEMENTAL ALIGNMENT for your minipet character self. Each ELEMENTAL ALIGNMENT HAS A BONUS:
Light: - Once per battle you can roll 2d4 to heal yourself
Dark: - Once per battle you can use your special attack, rolling 1d6. This is the damage you to do your opponent, and the amount you heal yourself.
Water: - Once per battle you may roll 1d6. If you successfully roll a 1 or 6, you freeze your opponent for two turns and you get TWO extra turns.
Fire: - Once per battle you may roll 1d6. This the amount of EXTRA BURN DAMAGE you to do your opponent for TWO TURNS.
Grass: - Once per battle you may activate your SPECIAL EFFECT and CONFUSE your opponent. The next damage your opponent does hits THEMSELVES instead!
Normal: - Once per battle, you may roll 2d4 as a special attack you do to your opponent.

gaia_crown [ MINIPET BATTLING: Elemental Weaknesses ]: All minipets have an ELEMENTAL WEAKNESS (other than normal). Please note them and calculate the mechanics accordingly.
LIGHT MINIPETS ARE WEAK AGAINST LIGHT MINIPETS. They take 2x damage from light attacks. That means if you are a light and you attack another light minipet, you do x2 damage to your FINAL damage for that turn for each turn you attack them.
DARK MINIPETS get a +1 damage modifier for all damage they do
NORMAL MINIPETS have NO weaknesses
GRASS MINIPETS: ARE WEAK AGAINST FIRE MINIPETS. They take 2x damage from fire minipets
FIRE MINIPETS: ARE WEAK AGAINST WATER MINIPETS. They take 2x damage from water minipets
WATER MINIPETS: ARE WEAK AGAINST GRASS MINPETS. They take 2x damage from Grass minipets.

gaia_crown [ MINIPET BATTLING: How two Battle ]:
- To initiate a battle simply QUOTE YOUR TARGET. You can only attack one target at a time. You get THREE ATTACKS PER IC 24 HOURS TO USE AS YOU PLEASE. That means yes, you could attack target A, B and then C and piss them all off, and then have to wait until 12:00 am PST RESET TIME to attack again.
- A special attack move also counts as one turn and takes up your normal 1d4 melee battle phase
- After quoting your target, either use your special attack (see above)
or proceed to a melee attack. Please note that you can only use your special attack once per IC 24 hours until the 12:00 am PST RESET TIME.
- In the quote to your target please post the damage you to do them so they know!
- AT the bottom of your post also post: Your minipet's current HP, your minipet's ELEMENT (unchangeable once you choose one), number of turns your minipet has used


gaia_crown [ MINIPET BATTLING: BOSSES ]:
- Occasionally a BOSS minipet will appear and attack everyone in the zone! They need to be taken out before you take them out! Boss minipets also have different ELEMENTS so calculate the damage accordingly! Boss minipet mechanics override the general battle rules, so make sure to read those (ie: if you already pvped 3 times an attack turn, you can still attack the boss, with the boss rules)

gaia_crown [ General RP mechanics ]:
- If your minipet PASSES OUT, they return to the starting zone, wherever they arrived at first with full health. It's rather magical, really!
- Even if you are not battling, please quote people you are talking to
- Please post at the bottom of EVERY OF YOUR POSTS even if not battling your minipet's HP, THE NAME OF YOUR CHARACTER, which faction they are, WHAT KIND OF MINIPET THEY ARE (an image would be great), and what ELEMENT they are. Please also note at the TOP OF YOUR POST the place you are at (ie: Main HQ, Adventure Dome, etc etc), you can exit and enter places as you please.
- Of course, you can only interact with people who are in the same AREA of the starting zone as you are (see below), this includes for battling.
- Have fun and good luck! It'll be interesting getting out of this one.... if only you had a clue of what to do! (Psstttt hint: be wary of gm posts)

STARTING ZONE 2

- Luckily for you you are in the floating isle known as SCAREFARI. There are a few places to explore here.

gaia_crown [ THREE HOOVES TAVERN ]: A few rowdy looking minipets including a hearty pirate foxfire (2) and pirate lepus can be seen hanging around the tavern. They don't look very friendly and sneer at you, telling you you shouldn't you know wander too far off. What does that mean? It becomes pretty apparently the second you do step outside though... (This is a no PVP zone)

gaia_crown [ THE MISTY FIELDS ]: THERE ARE CORRIDIVUS FLYING EVERYWHERE AUGH THEY ARE IN YOUR EYES THEY ARE EVERYWHERE. Wild corrividus keep on dive-bombing you, you take -2 damage every time you are at the misty fields. To make matters worse are TRAPS set randomly in each direction of the misty fields, your minipet needs to avoid the traps, though most of them are pretty obvious that they are you know, traps.

gaia_crown [ THE DARK FOREST ]: It is very, very, very dark here, but at least there are no corrividus. You have to make at least one post in the Misty Fields before moving on to the Dark Forest. Shadows seem to loom around you, and most of all, you have to avoid the traps that are harder to see. Roll a 6-sided dice every post you post in the Dark Forest. If odd, you are caught! Hapl! You will need to do 4 damage (by rolling your sexy 1d4) to the trap to get free - this does not count as one of your pvp attack turns.


gaia_crown [ THE LANDDOWN BOG ]: You need to pass/make at least one post through the Dark Forest in order to get to the Landdown Bog. Strange eyes peer from you from underneath the murky, pea-coloured water, threatening to drag you down at any moment. The stench of the bog is overwhelming, it takes you one post to arrive at the bog, one post to cross the bridge, and one post to pass the large oversized swamp minipet in your way. Each turn you are in the bog you take - 5 damage.

gaia_crown [ THE HOWLING KARSTS ]: You need to pass/make at least three posts through the Landdown Bog in order to get to the Howling Karsts. At long last you make it there but at what cost? A large chasm awaits you, a void of nothingness... that is until you realize you have a pretty good view from up here. In fact you can pretty much see everything. Is that a city you see in the horizon? Maybe you should head there, but how?
