Hello, and welcome to...Final Fantasy: Trinitial Odysseus! A story of love, conquest, hardships, tales of other lands beyond...all told beyond a single screen. Well, maybe more than one screen. Three? You're probably reading this from the fourth....
Now, like any good CYOAer should know is what sorts of actions to put in...which can be, well, anything! Really! OCs are allowed, too, as is the norm for a Xeno CYOA, though due to concrete narrative, some minor Power Play may occur. If you feel at any point your character is being mis-represented, feel free to let us know!
Regarding updating schedules, this story should have updates probably once every week, maybe less. I won't promise you this means the story will be good, but I CAN promise effort will go into making it as such!
Something a little special to keep in mind- this CYOA has a bit of a difference when it comes to participants. Namely, this story will be told upon 3 Forums at once! Each side will get the same story updates (with minor BB Code edits if need be), and anonymity of poster actions will be kept by default. I know going out on a quest can be scary at times, but just know you'll always have friends in high places!
Now, I've blathered on about the story enough- I have places to be, after all! So, have fun!Well, today's the day. Today's finally that day where you try out that new Final Fantasy MMORPG everyone seems to be talking about!...okay, so it's not really that new. The blasted thing has been out for EONS by this point, but your friend Ian has been constantly begging you to check it out. He said he was skeptical about it at first, himself, but he took a word of recommendation from some other dude he knows on the weebz. Vince? You're pretty sure it was Vince. According to what you've heard (and looked up), the game hasn't exactly changed much since its online release a while ago, but there was a rather hefty update recently. You haven't looked into what the update added, nor the plot of the story. If one of your party members die in the future, you're gonna want to be as taken aback with shock as humanely possible, gosh-darnit. After installing the necessary plug-ins, linking to the server, and sifting through the title screen, the "all-important" option most MMORPGs provides these days pops up: Avatar, or Diginsert. The choice isn't hard for you- Avatar. You're not super-rich or anything, so you can't exactly afford a digitizer, and you're pretty sure that does weird stuff to your complexion, anyways. Er, you think it would. Hey, if it was on the 6 o'clock news, it has to be true, right? In no time flat, you had reached the all-important (and not in a sarcastic sense this time) class select screen. Of course , there were only 6 classes to choose from, but of the little you had read of the game, more would become available to you over time, and there was the distinct possibility even more were added after the game's recent update. There also seems to be a text-box prompt, possibly for the naming of your character. You scroll the circular menu around for a bit, not sure who to choose. You eventually end up just holding down "left", and watch as the potential heroes rotate on that circular...circle. Man, even if you're not stuck with what you choose, it could be HOURS before you can choose your job class again. And then, there's the matter of names...decisions, decisions. What shall be your character's name? And what shall be his class?

Your character's name shall be Light Yagami and his class shall be Kira.
How about his name is Light Lawliet and his class is something that can kill from a distance?

While usernames for this update will be going anonymous (bar one), I do wonder if it's something I should even bother with? If anyone has any objections to their usernames being un-mentioned, you can do so in the comments, and if enough people have no qualms with their username being shown across platform, then I'll just leave those in for now (as well as add them back into this post). For now, though, it'll be a secret... Forums will still be kept anonymous unless asked, though. Fighter: 1 Fighter: 2 Fighter: 2 Black Mage: 0.5 Red Mage: 0.5 Fighter: 2 Black Mage: 0.5 Red Mage: 1.5 Fighter: 2 Black Mage: 0.5 Red Mage: 1.5 Thief: 1 Fighter: 2 Black Mage: 1.5 Red Mage: 1.5 Thief: 1 Fighter: 3 Black Mage: 1.5 Red Mage: 2.5 PSYCHE! 1.5 Thief: 1 Fighter: 4 Black Mage: 1.5 Red Mage: 1.5 Thief: 1 Should proooooobably mention you can only make one action on one of the three forums at a time. There is, admittably, a little overlap, so of course this is something that'll end up coming to surface more than once, so it's best for me to be stating it here. I'll still allow actions of any length, but it'll be limited to one forum. ...Though do feel free to argue with yourself, I've been doing that pretty much all week. Pretty early for an OC, but I'll take it. I like the detail put into this, lots of thought, too. Should make writing for them fluent. Now, then, let's get this show on the road! ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Whilst hastening your mad scrolling, you seem to perceive thoughts in your mind. You can't exactly place them, though...they certainly aren't yours, because you are quite certain Biggs and Wedge were your favorite. Cid is easily your second-fave, though. I mean, the dude is quite variable. Like, that one time he was the villain, and that dude's father...and another time when he piloted a space ship...and you suppose there was the one from FFII. You don't recall anything specific about that one. Now, for classes, you realize the one you absolutely MUST have is Fighter. You find it odd that you didn't think to yourself aloud what the classes were, but whatever drug-induced hallucination you're under that's causing you to hear voices, these voices certainly have good taste, as well as a fine love of Final Fantasy. Well, most of them. There was that one that said something about not knowing the classes, after all, which is habberdash. That's, like, showing someone those starter Pokemon from Oak's Lab and not knowing what they're called! You know what they are, of course. You just...erm...forgot. You'll look it up later. Another reason you decided on Fighter is due to this one 8-bit webcomic you read once. That really gave you a new-found love for Fighter. And sword. You definitely liek swords. Now, for the name... You decide to simply slam your fingers onto the keyboard in the hopes that it would grant you a good name rational thought wouldn't otherwise. Hey, if it worked for TomSka with asdf, then it should work for you, right? You end up with the name "IBCGLYLDBSCBWCMEXI", which every voice in your head unanimously agrees on to be "Illion Bob Cid Gilgamesh Light 'Yagami' Lawliet Dave 'Black' Strider Callo Boko Wellington Colm Mage Evilwizardington the XIth", despite there being no meaning in any of that word, simply cherry-picked for the eyes of humans to see as "fitting". Well, you're a human, and like hell you're gonna put up with that name. Besides, there's a 15-character limit, and that name is over by 3 characters. So you'll just have to pick one of those chosen names. Lesse... Strider? Nah, internet has enough Homestuck. Besides, that one's already taken. Dave? Same reasoning as above. "Evilwizardington"? Too long. "Boko"? Also taken. Actually, the only ones not taken that could function as usernames that lack crazy amounts of numbers and punctuation marks is "Illion", "Lawliet", and "Callo". Hmm...the creative juices in your brain are flowing. You can practically feel your brain producing brain slime from your smartness, which is totally a thing. Your smartness, you mean. Yes...it's coming to you..."Cawlion"! You are quite proud of your naming genius! Now, to type in the name, and...dang. Someone already took that name. Eh, guess you'll go with CawlionXI. What's the difference? After a short wait, you arrive in okay, what the hell is this? I mean, really, what the hay? Sure, you weren't exactly expecting something fancy, but this is far from the graphical experience promised from by what Ian had told you about it. Or maybe it was somebody else that mentioned its graphical output. You were certain you saw at least something on TV advertising the game as being, like, this wildly-3D space. It could be just another limitation of opting for Avatar over Diginsert, since not being immersed in the experience means having a totally detached experience, or...something, but that still doesn't explain why the character-select screen looked so...HD in comparison. You bet this was probably another of Proarcheh Inc.'s lame marketing ploys. Well, joke's on them! You liked the 2D games more anyways! Ha!....ah...moving on. There is quite a bit going on in this town. You've read up a little on the game, and this is the town referred to as "Fahrey". It acts as a bit of a small town on the continent of wherever this game takes place, and it's said there lives in a castle nearby a great King who issues forth a quest to beginning players, to get them started on their journey, and to teach them the basics of the game...as if you really needed a reminder. Of course, high-level players come here sometimes, possibly to pick on lower-levelers, or maybe because of something regarding the King. You're not sure, you sorta kept your research to just that one thing. Taking a look around, you can spot several people minding their own business in the town. The first you notice is a Black Mage, and in the most literal sense of the word: he seems to be staring at the statue of what you can assume to be Bahamut (given they didn't give him yet ANOTHER ridiculous makeover in appearance), for reasons you cannot comprehend. Equally incomprehensible is the level of customization that went into his sprite...at least, you want to say "sprite", but it's far more likely that he's a Diginsert that had a lot of free time. You're probably lucky you're even able to comprehend his appearance beyond the normal color pallate...or maybe all Black Mages just look like that. Again, you blame potential re-designs. Of course, other figures within your short range catch your attention: stright in front of you, there's a furry. Yep. Not sure what else to add to that. A little ahead of you, and to your left, is a blue-haired boy managing a purple Chocobo. You remember Ian talking briefly about Chocobo spectrum, and you surmise purple must be in some ways better, but you don't know by how much. a little to the left of that is someone with a weird hairdo, who...might be surrounded on all sides by water. To your immediate left, a nobleman walks forwards, and a little lefter, a green-skinned dancer dances on an isolated patch of pavement. To your right, a Monk speaks with another nobleman, and a Mage cloaked in blue seems to peer down a Well. You turn behind you to find a boy in green, on a bridge, singing songs about camaderie, faith, and losing 500 at the slots. You don't pay enough attention to hear what it is 500 of. Another, younger boy seems to approach a pig-tailed girl around his age, and a White Mage happens to look longingly at a Dragoon. And just outside of your field of vision, but still something you catch with a small glimpse, is what appears to be a druid who has a cloak adorning his entire face and hands. Well, possibly most of his face, but you can't make out any specific details behind the shrubbery. You imagine that NONE OF THIS is relevant to you. Literally. You're looking at this from a 2D-screen, you CAN see that pink ninja from your monitor! Still, you do need somewhere to start here. Ian said he would be on to help you out at the start, though you haven't heard back from him in 5 hours, and you were getting kinda tired of waiting. This certainly leaves you with a lot of options for what to do, so you believe you'll take a short break to gather your thoughts, preferrably in the form of CYOA suggestions.[/div][/div]

Curses, my plot to inject Homestuck references into every fiber of this CYOA has been thwarted! Nice name anyway though.
Anyway, I suppose the first thing to do is to head to the weapons shop.
Also Warrior(the swordy dude) and Fighter(the kung-foo dude) are different classes, and according to that sprite up there we're Warrior, not Fighter.Okay, nevermind then.

Erm...the "Kung-Fu dude" is called Monk. The Warrior is (in FFi, anyways) the "promotion" of Fighter, which is what was chosen. I noticed someone called Monk "Fighter" earlier, but didn't say anything since Fighters can still dual-wield, too. And I vastly prefer Fighter, so there's also that.
I do realize it's primarily my fault for not having listed the classes in the first place, but class changing is something that'll spring up at one point or another, so if anyone feels dissatisfied, ot can be changed later. EDIT: D'OH! Fighter and Warrior are synnonymous. They're both two names for the same class, which promotes to "Knight". Neither of them are Monk, of course.

Okay, from this point on I'm just dropping the anonimity altogether. It was sorta pointless, relatively confusing, and all, so lets continue, shall we? Trust me when I say this, that one joke was the one deciding factor in dropping the anonimity. It just wouldn't work otherwise, even though I greatly implied the sameness of you and yourself in those posts. I was gonna answer that top bit on the single forum itself and omit the top part from other participating forums, but then that'd ruin the joke once again, which would be rather irresponible of me. Is it worth mentioning this one forum in specific doesn't show Usernames in quotes unless its quoted from an exact message from this board? Yeah. So...you guys on here will still be left in the dark on who's posting these messages. I can't help it if I'm too lazy to make that big of an edit, sorry. Anyways, you try changing your name (even though you think it's the best name ever) to (censored forumer), but you soon figure out that you can only change your screen name by PMing a mod about it first. Also, there's still that pesky charcter limit to worry about... And whilst it'd certainly be tempting to push that Blue Red Mage down that well (if only for his ridiculous contradiction in clothing and Job Class), you still haven't checked out the controls. Well, you try the arrow keys, so those definitely work. WASD also seem like plausible control options, though there's only one server you can immediately think of where using that with arrow keys available would be an option you're willing to go...but hey, you greatly prefer arrows anyday. From the looks of it, Delete acts as a "cancel" button, and "Enter" as, well, an enter button. P opens up the menu, whilst Q...you have no idea what Q does, but it does make you do a little jig on the map. Will that prove useful to know?...probably not. Also, since you finally figured out the controls, you walk over to where the Blue Red Mage is and push him down the well, him cursing you out as he falls in. He should be grateful: any seasoned explorer knows all too well that there's ALWAYS cool goodies at the bottom of wells. You wouldn't be surprised if he found a King Slime Crown down there. I'll be honest, I though you said "breeding", but it is sorta the same thing... Anyways, you head over to the blue-haired boy and, of course, ask about Chocobo breeding. You aren't entirely sure why you're bothering, you've tried desperately to avoid the situation whenever possible when Ian brings it up, but somehow the voices in your hear have convinced you otherwise. That was...more than you wanted to hear. You decide to go to the Weapons Shop to purchase a weapon, preferrably a sword. You'll need something to defend yourself, should you again get ambushed by rabid Chocobo nerds. As you walk into the building, you are immediately greeted by the sight of a Gallade store clerk. Pokemon have just as much of a right to manage a store as a human, of course, but you do find it odd any mon would take up such a mundane role. You do have to wonder how he manages items, though, what with a lack of opposable thumbs. And hands. Wait a minute...behind the counter...is that... ... IT IS.After that thankfully-short chatlogue casually short business exchange, you ponder your next course of action. I have no idea whom you're talking about here. "Black Mage" could be referring to the only Black Mage on-screen, but he isn't green. It could be the Bard, since he's green, but not particularly Mage-y. And there's the Green Dancer, who's certainly not a "he", but looks more like a Mage than the Bard. Either that, or you're talking about those nobles, OR using the term "green" to refer to the Black Mage as being new... Using this argument amongst the voices in your head as a window of opportunity, you escape the stress of adventuring to watch that smexy green dancer from a closer distance. SambaMegido has joined your party! Well, you figure you might as well undertake some sort of quest before you continue on your journey, right? Not like you have much of a journey to go on. So, of course the most side-questy looking dude here must be that guy wearing that hood! He probs has something significant to say. Now that you're much closer too him than before (or rather, now that you're squinting at the pixels on your screen), you can see that he might have a red beak jettisoning out of his hood...or he has a really weird face, you can't really tell with this odd resolution. Odds are that sidequest shouldn't take too long to complete. Well, you probably could take the more pro-active approach in getting in touch with him. You try sending him a message over the game's PM system, though he doesn't seem to be on at the moment. You try sending a message over #Pun, though he doesn't seem to be on there, either. He did recently send you a memo, though, which you proceed to read: Damnit all. Apparently my chocobo was recently deleted. Not even fainted, DELETED. Like, I'm pretty sure that shouldn't be a thing on any server I go on, and when I asked about it to a mod, he just...kicked me right off! I'm going back onto that server for answers, and I'll be damned if I leave without my Bobby Cornwell!...but first, dinner.Seems he left that about 10 or so minutes ago, so whatever happened, it was recent. You decide to leave him a message: Ouch. That sucks. Anyways, I'm on the Final Fantasy server now, if you happen to go on that later. I'm in Fahren at the moment, managed to convince a sorta-but-not-really feminist dancer to tag along. I'm not sure how much that's going to help...oh! But I also got these sweet Swordchucks. So it's been pretty good today. So, see ya soon, I guess.Well, why not? It's quite apparent to you that he's the best-dressed dude in town, so clearly he has some greater importance to the plot. He seems to be quite focused on that statue of Bahamut in the center of town, though he still turns towards you when you try to engage in conversation. The Black Mage silently but politely turns his attention back to the Bahamut Statue, still focusing on its energy. Is there perhaps something within that statue he sees, which nobody else in town can? ...You believe you may be starting to get what the mage may be onto, as an idea formulates within your thick thinkpan. Well, that was fun, but you're bored now. That weird voice in your head gave you a pretty interesting suggestion, though, and it might be fun to ride a Dragoon like a mechanical bull. You creepily sneak up on the Dragoon, as he has a tender moment with the White Mage staring lovingly into his eyes... Spurred on by your sudden advance, the Dragoon jumps high into the sky, with you tagging along for the ride. While you don't exactly get a good view of the ENTIRE WORLD, you do get a good look at the immediate vicinity of the world map. Seems there's Fahren, next to a crescent-shaped lake of some sort. On the northern end of the lake is a shrine of some sort, whilst the southern end has some sort of cave. There's a river between the cave and Fahren, and you can't tell how far the river goes, so unless you have access to a River, Red, Teal, Black, or Gold Chocobo, you might not be getting there anytime soon. As this mysterious voice speaks its peace, you crash down outside of the town, having been shaken off by that dragoon. Odds are, neither he nor his Ingot Digger will join your party anytime soon. But you do have two others waiting for you near the town entrance, ready to go questing: that black mage, Vodakae, and the dancer, SambaMegido. That name might be a bit much for you to remember, so...maybe you'll just call her Megido. Maybe she won't mind? Or she'll mind a lot, who knows. Sudenly, your party is ambushed by enemies!Goblin A: 10/10 Goblin B: 10/10 Flan: 15/15 Cawlion: 28/28 Megido: 18/18 Vodakae: 23/23 What shall your next course of action be, brave heroes?

However, he forgot to pay the subscription fee couldn't pay the rent for his home and magic lessons and was sent back into the world with no purpose. His reputation was trash, so nobody wanted him to do sidequests or anything. Angry at this, Cat Mcsummonstuff casted the forbidden art... " "!!!

(Just a little note here: Vodakae and Cat Mcsummonstuff are going to be speaking, though I don't want to be derivative of their characters. So...they might not speak much? I guess? I dunno, it's been more than 3 weeks, let's get on with the show.) Have a flashback to the chocobo lecture, use the knowledge gained to win the fight. Yeah, sure, if anything goes wrong, we can try to lecture them to death. We'll keep that in mind for laterYeah, that's...a "good" plan, but we'll put it on the back-burner for now. I doubt these guys have enough of a grasp on English Language to be engaged-but-distant enough from conversation to be bored by it. Attack that slime Flan first. Vodakae can hit it with a spell, since I doubt physical attacks will do much to something like that. Awwww yeah we got an evil mysterious Black Mage on the team. My life is complete. Cawlion: Swordchucks. Flan. Make it happen.Megido, whose name is totally not another Homestuck reference: Atempt to...uh...... Maybe we should ask Megido and Vodakae what their abilities are first. You decide to jump up into the air, making your most fanciful of poses as you strike down the Flan with your- Your SwordChucks have become stuck in the Flan. Why did I read that entire wall about chocobos? It was probably a stupid idea but whatever. Grab Goblin A and stuff him down the Flan throat. I refuse to be governed by RPG laws. Ignore the other Planetbox. Stuff Goblin B into the Flan's mouth instead. (Also, I'm so glad you let us push the mage down the well.) I second our Planetbox. Who cares about the (Other forum's name) Planetbox, right? SambaMegido shwos off her strength (and her ability to not be tied down to either Planetbox) by suplexing BOTH Goblins into the Flan, just because she can. Vokadae, during this decisive action, alights Cawlion's SwordChucks with Fire Magic, allowing them to cut through the slime like butter. These actions cause all on-screen enemies to be brought down to 5 HP.

Suddenly, a mysterious figure approached from the vast field of green, a male of some sort. He seemed somewhat...strange...a man with what appeared to be pink hair. And were those...cat ears? Uttering his almost incantational rebuttal, the mysterious user (apparently named Cat Mcsummonstuff) summoned forth a Tank Carbuncle (also referred to as a Topaz Carbuncle by some), protecting the party from further damage for that turn. Which, truthfully, did not help much, as the entire enemy party was entirely immobilized, either from being stuffed into a Flan, or...well...being stuffed with two too many Goblins. Instead, Vodakae simply used Fire against the vulnerable smorgasborg, securing victory.Gained 4 Exp! Got 10 G! Before the group ended up getting into another battle, audible screams could be heard coming from the town square. Somebody had run out of town in a panic, ending up in front of the group of warriors. It just so happened that it was the same Dragoon Cawlion had rode on just before to get a good look at the immediate world map. Well, seems like the plot's finally kicking off! So, now, what shall you-....Uhm? I'm sorry, but what is this abou- *Live feed hacked
*Preparing to intercept signal
*Kalev Firewall Bypass successfully engaged
*Server 001 Logged onto successfully...Well now, who's this douchebag?...We're probably not gonna find out for a while. Whoever he is, he seems to be in a server...not related to the Final Fantasy one that the prior group was in. He doesn't speak to himself, so it seems you're more-or-less given nothing to go by in terms of backstory for him, or any of the pokemon in this quaint village. You might have to have him talk to someone to find out more. He does give a small nod, though, turning off his theme and letting the natural OST of the server sink in. ...Aside from that, yeah. Quite a bit of story material to work with here...

Mysterious guy: Name yourself Miles Edgeworth and sing Phoenix Wright's part of the Objection song for ironic reasons. Then realize that you don't think that prosecutor is an occupation on this server and check. If it is, continue being Miles Edgeworth. If it isn't, be Cawlion: Get fourthwallsmacked (with the Vibranium fourth wall, no less, before it's chucked far away so Edgeworth can't get it back long story) by Ryuzaki, who then leaves to prove that Light is Kira.
