Please read this main post BEFORE you create a character.

Basic rules:

1. I am the (Clockworks) Tunnel Master. Period. However, I can hand these duties to anyone of my choice.

2. Anyone can join the game, but if there is a dungeon in progress, they cannot join the party.

3. Most NPCs (such as enemies or shopkeepers) will be under MY control.

4. Anyone caught cheating or backstabbing their friends will be put in SOMO (like cryogenic sleep, but without the ice; your character just lies in sleep for thousands of years.... or until I decide to wake you up. Whichever comes first.)

5. Currently, You may choose to be either a knight, or a gremlin (actually a full list of what you can be is nailed at the bottom of this initial post). If you want to be something else, please provide an plausible back story to explain why a race of whatevers (say, devlites for example) would be backing up the knights. Additionally, your character must be a creature from Spiral Knights.

6. On top of that, you only start with the starting gear for your race. These details are given in the race list at the bottom.

7. Unless you are in a dungeon (not waiting for one), You may create a new character at anytime. Be aware, however, that doing so will result in you losing any cool stuff you have. If you attempt to change your race while in a dungeon, you will be put in SOMO.

I'm still kinda working on this, but please feel free to create a character and join.

A dungeon is currently open, and I'm taking suggestions for the theme!

    • Excellent bombers! Bombs that deal your elemental type do bonus damage.

    • Or you can throw parts of yourself.
    • Can self-destruct, or cause pieces of themselves to blow up (hmmm.... Maybe the rocket launcher part isn't that much of an exaggeration)
    • You don't die from self destruct, your body just gets shattered, and then you need to reform.
    • Can grow spikes out of their body! Rawr!
    • Can convert nearly anything they pick up into a material, and therefore have little use for crafting
  • Mewkats:
    • Can fly around and bite people! Like a ninja...
    • Higher evolved mewkats of any kind can shoot projectiles. BUAAAGGGHHH!!
  • Lumbers:
    • BIG, and sloooooowwwwwww......

    • Not as intelligent as Mecha-Knights...

cool

I am a wolver

I was kicked out by all the other wolvers, because I always asked why we even attack the knights, but they ignored me and got really annoyed of me. when I was kicked out, I wanted to get into haven and make friends with the knights there but every time I manage to get in, someone sees me, yells "monster" and trys to kill me. I was sad and lonely when one day, I saw this guy sitting just outside the walls of haven, sitting on a rock, questioning why they have to kill us. I went up to him and licked him to make friends with him. he laughed when I did. he gave me a monster bone and said we should be adventuring friends. I nodded in agreement.
everyday he snuggled me into haven and into the Clockworksto go adventering togeter, of course, he never joined a group and blocked his group from all other knights. we had a lot of fun
Then came the day, we were exploring the Clockworks in a devilite stage when a devilite threw a chair at him when he was near the edge, causeing him to fall off the cliff to who knows where. his teloportation divce that teloports him to haven was malfunctioning, I knew that because when he tried to teloport to haven, it didn't work
I never saw him agian. I swore to have revenge agianst the devilites and kill everyone of them. I came here for help to get enough power to destroy them all

That is my story

Is this a Roleplay? Because then it would belong in the Vault. But the Vault-goers recently made a pact to only have one RP at a time, so maybe keeping this in the GC would be wise...

Bread Trolling

Im a mecha knight.

I got broken and reprogrammed by gremlins to destroy haven.But i malfunctioned and got a Bread Throwing System or BTS.So the gremlins abandoned me and some knight found me and gave me power. Then they equipped me with Polaris and Biohazard. Still with my BTS, I became a guard roaming around haven. But i malfunctioned again and Bosco is trying to fix me.

that is my story

Wow, I honestly did not expect this much attention.

Anyway, everyone can be what ever they want really, (Pipipipipi and Mamonchter gave some good backstories and excuses for being wolvers and mecha knights), but you basically start with basic gear (and abilities).

Knights:
-All Proto Gear. Sword, armor, helm, shield, gun, even (throwable) bomb. :)

-Basically all-around skills.

Gremlins:
-Thwack Hammer

-(light) Wolver Coat

-Additionaly, gremlins are natural engineers!

Mecha-Knights:
-Bolted Blade

-Iron Buckler

-Lack of imagination, but very "intelligent"

-Also, quite durable.

Wolvers:
-Nothing but the fur on your back! Literally!

-Don't feel too bad, you can bite your enemies.

-Oh yeah, you also have a more highly developed sense of smell.

Like I said, I'm kinda working on this, kinda figuring this out. But thanks everyone for joining in (except Immortous, who didn't really join... yet.)

I do know one thing though.

[Zaps Thowardz's character so that he's only wearing proto gear.]

Sorry, but you can't just start with everything. You gotta EARN it.

Oh, one last thing, it would be nice if you could please indicate whether you are male, female, or genderless, otherwise I'll just guess based on your name, because it's more convenient than he/she/it.

ideas for future abilitys for wolvers (have to level up to get them though)

burrow (all attacks on wolver will miss, cannot attack until unburrowed, lasts for 2 turns)

The Cupcake-God does not aprove!!!

I am the Cupcake-God, and only I can have this species, others who want to be this species are cupcake angels

I was drained of most of my cupcake powers by the Cupcake-Devil, so I came here to regain my powers. The Cupcake-Devil captured cupcake heaven and turned it into cupcake hellven, he enslaved all my cupcake angels, forced them to do his evil cupcakey work for him. I must recapture cupcake hellven, free the cupcake angels, and change it back to cupcake heaven.

that is my story

also I am a boy

my only ability is to splat a cupcake in the enemys face, and heal me or my allies by giving them a cupcake, which has a 5 turn cooldown...
for now

Question answers and FIRST DUNGEON OPEN!

@ Thowardz: I kinda guess Pipipipipi and Mamonchter start at "tier 1," since it makes sense. They will both probably level up through excessive amounts of heat.

@ Pipipipipi: Yes you could possibly say that you can smell out secrets and whatnot.

@ Cupcake-God: ...This is supposed to be a Spiral Knights version of D&D, not Imaginations & Nightmares. So I'm just going to assume that you're a knight wearing a cupcake hat (which is kinda okay since it doesn't really do anything other than make you look delicious.) I'll admit that I'm probably going to make stuff up, but it will still try to retain true to Spiral Knights. (For example, I might try and launch the Lichen Lord at you, but I won't send in Bloodwing (a boss from Borderlands 2, not recommended for little ones))

Now, to business. (This isn't a toast)

Application for the first dungeon (which might be the Aurora Isles) is now open. This will be a beginner level dungeon so that we can get a handle on things here. Because of this, I will go easy on punishments (unless you betray the party, don't expect anyone to go into SOMO this time.)

Party List:

  • This party has been reset.

Looks like a suitable Party Size.

We're just going to wait until tomorrow morning, by then I'll close the party and the elevator will go down to Aurora Isles.

If you want to join the party but don't have a character yet, don't worry; simply choose your race, indicate that you want in on this dungeon, and you're good to go. But you have until tomorrow morning (around 7:00 UTC Eastern Time (Canada & US)) to apply, after which, you can still create a character, but you won't be able to join the party.

And for those who are currently setting up camp on the elevator, I wish you all good luck.

EDIT:One last thing, if you could each create posts that show what stuff you have on you (like a character sheet), that would be great. Then I could link to it in the initial post, and we can keep track of what we've got without having to constantly grind through the thread (later on in life)

Okay, when do you think will be a good time for a dungeon? I'm not expecting the entire thing to take up only 1 day.

And FYI when I said "tomorrow", I meant "Sunday." (I posted that on Saturday)

Oh well, I kinda got distracted and spent the whole day playing Borderlands 2. Sorry. Maybe try again next Weekend? Applications open till Friday evening!

(New) Party List:

Backstories Time.So I just decided to create my backstories.

I was an siencetific.I was one of the Gremlin who have do test on wolver*.But one day i realized that the wolver was suffering because of us.So I tried to convince other Gremlin to stop this but they have ignored me and have countniue their test.So i decided to quit the lab and to go to Emberlight (I was at the limit of go to Emberlight).But the same day Spiral Knight arrived and demolished the lab and take us as prisonner.I tried to explain that i was going to Emberlight but they have ignored me and puted me in a cage.I was decided to get out of this cage whit everthing I can use. Fortunatly i had some corosive acid hided on me.I used some to make melt the cage I was in.After that I used a lot of skill to run away to the exit and to get out.Then i have go to emberlight and started a new life.A life of hating(and of suicidal tendances)

*see Lord-Of-Dragos backstories.

So I hate none-emberlight Gremlin and Spiral Knight.And I love wolver a lot thats why i stopped experience when i have understand that wolver was suffering.

Lord-Of-Dragos
Yo

Can I play?
I want to be a antagonist.
Controlled by myself.
Race: Wolver
Type: Rabid
Gender: Male (wolver)
Backstory: As a wolver, I was used as a "lab rat" by gremlins. I have a high dislike of gremlins and their mecha knights. Any team I come across with a gremlin/mechs knight I will automatically distrust them. (I wouldn't believe what they say if they try to do stuff or something.) If the party has a wolver, I will be more friendly and listen what you have to say. Anyway, the gremlins experimented on me with toxic chemicals and thus I became rabid. At first I hated it but soon I realized rabid means I can inflict more DMV on those I hate. After spiral knights captured the lab, they released me and some others. I am grateful to the knights. Still, the other wolvers wouldn't let me go with them because I was "infected." I now roam the clock works, and I don't trust that many people.
Most commonily found near poisonous areas.

@ Lord-Of-Dragos

1. You don't need to post so many times.

2. I'm not exactly all in on having a PC roaming the clockworks at random. You can most definitely join, though, but not as a sort of enemy.

By the way, "antagonist" means "main bad guy", which I'm pretty sure you're not.

Well I didn't exactly mean the main bad guy.......
If the squad is nice enough I'd help them and stuff.
I'd mainly appear in ares where wolvers are found or, if you we're being to nice to adventurers (to easy) I'd step in and confront them.
Also appears always in: "Wild Path: The forgotten wolvers."
I just don't really wanna be that much of a good guy.

Aaaaaannnnnnddd..... PARTY'S CLOSED! ELEVATOR DOWN!

The elevator descends into the abyss, and stops in the Aroura Isles, next to what appears to be a very large sky island. However, only a portion of the island is accessible.

There are 3 levels of elevation you can access, the first being a narrow trail that leads past some bushes and to the next level of elevation. (refrence map!)

What do you do first?

Hmmmmm

If there is a wolver in party once they reach the open area in the top they will find a hole. (The wolver sniffs it out.)
If there are no wolvers, the hole cannot be found no matter what.
Will they enter?
Well they can't.
There haven't gotten there yet.
