Agent Flint's Generic RPG

859 replies [Last post]

This land is called the Redundancy. It is a standard continent with grass, water, a castle, mountains, and trees. The grand kingdom of Everfell has established its rule in this continuent and promises peace and prosperity for years to come!
Until now, big surprise.
The king of Everfell has received dire news. The ruler of the north continent: Sarfram has sent a letter; a warning that the days to come will be dark as they come to conquer them. The king has reached a decision.

He will send one person to go stop this threat. Maybe two. There’s a slight chance for even three. You are in control of these heroes. Will you be able to stop the impending darkness quickly, or will you grind for hours before you do?

Welcome to my new ‘experimental’ forum game: Agent Flint’s Generic RPG. It’s different from traditional RPGs in the sense that it’s well… different. You’ll see. Here is the basic content of this game.
-The game starts with two characters. Up to six more join the party as the game progresses. You can control one of these characters at a time and switch to different characters during checkpoints.
-Oh, and you have no control over what these characters say or think.
-There’s no mana. Mana is replaced with a new system called Charge.
-Don’t expect a 9/10 for story. It is probably rather ridiculous.
-Everyone has some terrible names. Once you see them you’ll know.

After you read the rules, come have a look at these Game Modifiers. Pick two of them which will probably affect the game permanently. Or maybe just the chapter.
Vote… without a poll.
Faster Fights: Make battles go faster! ALL damage is doubled.
Faster Grinding: Make grinding easier! Experience is increased by 50%.
Disable Grinding: Experience gain is disabled. Characters will never level up, but neither will enemies.
Better Names: All of the characters get better names.
Codex: Become smarter. Damage formulas for skills and the defense stat are revealed.

Also, pick a character to play as.
♂️1 - Standard melee class with a good old fashioned sword. Appears in Chapter 1-1.
♀️2 - Balanced magic class with a variety of spells. Appears in Chapter 1-1.
♂️3 - Fast melee class with speed and stealth. Appears in Chapter 1-3.

Speedrunner walks left 3 times. He didn't find squat.

Unique Sidequest

Speedrunner walks northeast. There's... an bush with oranges on it. This can't be what the clues meant.
Do anything with the orange bush?

#658

Pick as many oranges from it as Raleigh can.

#659
Unique Sidequest

Rolled a 4. As Raleigh goes to pick an orange from the bush, a screech makes him freeze in place. It sounded like it came from behind the bush. "What was that?" His question was answered as a strange, orange monster leaps through the bush, knocking Raleigh down and raking him. "Ow! What the?"
The strange creature looks angry, it's about to attack!

Raleigh - 150/175 - 3/5

Vitacie - 240/240 - 1/5

Critical Success(20): A supremely powerful attack that is more than just double damage.
High Roll(16-19): Your attack is more effective, and does more damage.
Average Roll(6-15): You did what you meant to do.
Low Roll(2-5): You mess up, and miss on regular attacks, or deal less damage.
Critical Failure(1): Absolutely disastrous. Not only is this a failure, but there are consequences.

#662
uh oh

Raleigh Cloaks and then Attacks

#663
Unique Sidequest

Raleigh cloaks himself in shadows. It's not very good because he's not completely invisible.
Vitacie rakes Raleigh. It missed the target that was still pretty easy to see. Combo broken!
Raleigh pokes Vitacie. It was a powerful poke. -35.
Vitacie uses Rainbeam on Raleigh. It looks very pretty, but it doesn't do much else.

#667
Unique Sidequest

Raleigh stabs Vitacie as much as he possibly can in one turn! -26, -26, -31, -26, -26.
The orange creature collapses on the ground, having spent all the energy it could to defend the bush. It is now weakly groaning, crying for help. What will you do?

#668

Before doing anything with the creature, check what was inside that orange bush.

#669
Unique Sidequest

The bush has oranges on it. You have no idea why Vitacie was guarding it.

#670

Try uprooting the entire bush from the ground.

#671
Remember, don't shoot food.

Look at the orange creature and feel a little bad.

#672
Unique Sidequest

Speedrunner starts uprooting the bush, but when he sees the orange creature start writhing in pain, he feels bad.
Just like last time, another orange creature leaps out from the bush, but it's bigger than Vitacie! Are you gonna fight it?

Vitami Cei - 190/190 - 2/5

#673
Remember, don't shoot food.

No.

#674
Unique Sidequest

Raleigh runs back to town in fear of getting rekt. Back in town, an officer sees that he's tired. "Hey, what's wrong, boy? Rebels after you or something?"

#675

"Need help... orange bush... rare species... in danger..."

#676
Unique Sidequest

Raleigh, gasping for breath, barely manages to say: "Need help... orange bush... rare species... in danger..."

The officer just stares, because she has no idea what she is listening to. "Riiiiight... i'm sorry, but if there's some endangered species, maybe you should ask someone else." She looks around, and sees the rest of your party, standing around. "How about one of those guys? What if they know something about animals?"

#677
Remember, don't shoot food.

...I screwed up the sidequest, didn't I?

Well, uh...

Talk to my party I suppose.

Maybe Candence knows something, I don't know.

#678
Unique Sidequest

"Hey Cadence, do you happen to know anything about endangered animals?" Raleigh asks.

Luckily, she's an ace on that topic. "I love animals! What does it look like?"

"Well... It looks like a dragon, but it's orange?"

"Orange Dragons don't exist." Sage interrupts.

Raleigh dismisses her claim, because, "But I saw it with my own eyes! You should come see it!"

Sage shakes her head. "No thanks. Ask Cadence to come with you."

"Aww, you're so negative, Sage. Okay Raleigh, I want to see this 'orange dragon'!"
(Crazee-Pi, you're Cadence now.)
As they walk back to the orange bush, the Vitami Cei is still there, defending it's damaged kin. It's still looking for a fight. "Is that it?"

"Yep." Raleigh answers.

"Rrrrrrr!" The Vitami Cei leaps forward aggressively!

"Wah!" Apprentice dodges as the dragon lands on it's face. "That was close, okay, let's try to defeat it without killing it."

"Can do."

Raleigh - 175/175 - 3/5
Cadence - 195/195 - 3/5

#680
Remember, don't shoot food.

Aqua Jet.

I assume Cadence doesn't have haste.

#681
Unique Sidequest

(Oh really? Well now you have Haste!)
Raleigh coats his weapon with poison. It worked, even though poison is less popular than bleed.
Cadence fires an intense jet of water at Vitami Cei! Missed, -36, but wait! Without Cadence noticing, the dragon sprouts a flower from it's tail and uses it to absorb all the water, healing itself and regenerating health. (Rolled a 1.)
Vitami Cei rakes Cadence. -41.
Vitami Cei regenerates 19 health.
Raleigh uses First Blood on Vitami Cei, but he slips a little just like last time. -78.

"Should we run after it?" Cadence asks.

#685

"Yeah... but ya think we can get this bush out before we lose sight of 'em?"

#686
Unique Sidequest

"It's just an orange bush, Raleigh. There are many like it in the lands, and it'll probably wither and die if you pull it out."

#687

"But why were they so keen on keeping me away from it... Ah whatever, I'm sure we'll figure out that later down the line. Let's get after them."

#688
Unique Sidequest

As they run after the orange whelplings, they end at a cave entrance. "How has no one discovered this yet?" Raleigh asks.

"I guess we should go in." Cadence suggests. "This may be big."

As you enter, you are met with a powerful presence. "So, mortals have finally trespassed on my domain?" You can't seem to find the owner of the voice. Want to respond?

<"Sarcastic" dialogue option>

"You were waiting? Oh sorry, we didn't mean to excite you so soon."

#690
Unique Sidequest

"You were waiting? Oh sorry, we didn't mean to excite you so soon." Raleigh said real sarcastically.

"If you have the will to face me, then come find me and fight with everything you have."

"Doesn't that voice sound kind of fake?" Cadence says.

#691

"It's hard for me to tell. My "pilot" lacks a certain type of "perception," you see."

"But completely disregard what I just said, we got some orange dragons to chase after!"

"...Though I feel like fighting this guy too."

Continue into the cave.

#692
Unique Sidequest

Raleigh and Cadence step towards a lit chamber to see a huge orange dragon. "So... You think you can face me, mortals?"

"I dunno, probably?" Cadence says.

#693

"I think this is a trick."

Raleigh then does something to check if the voice really is coming from the huge orange dragon.

#694
Unique Sidequest

"YOU THINK THIS IS A TRICK?!" The dragon isn't opening it's mouth, so it might be using telepathy. "It will not be a trick when I crush you two!"
