About 10 years ago I was introduced to a game called Quest. It's an RPG PBM (that's Play-By-Mail), you would create this party of 6 characters and venture around this world doing the usual RPG stuff. To play the game you had to post orders on what you wanted your party to do. It involved using letters and numbers so it looked a bit confusing (ex. M 3334). After they received your orders and processed it, they would send you the results of what happened and then you would send in more orders.

It was fun, I enjoyed it. Made a few friends and at one time use to get 15 letters a day. I think I might have been geekier than Rosalind back then (don't worry she wont read this heh) This was before everyone had the internet and mobile phones were still brickish.

I eventually tired of the game and by that I mean I just couldnt afford it. £2.something per turn was just too much. They've moved onto the internet now so turns are processed by email and so everything is a lot quicker than it use to be.

Well anyway, my reason for starting this thread and telling you about all this is because they offer a free demo. That's 20 free turns to play with. So I thought "what the hell" and so I'm now setting up a party for you guys on Freeola :) I'll sort out all the orders and results etc, you guys just create the characters, help decide some orders and enjoy reading what happens :D

Okay first we need 6 characters, I'll take one, pb and Kawada you two are playing too :), so that leaves 3 characters left. I didn't want to force anyone else to play so if you would like to join please do. Little effort or time is needed so come on. :) if no one else joins I'll just pick some people and use their names anyway heh.

If you would like to play and Kawada and pb you'll have to do this too. Could you please do the following;

1. [B]Name your character[/B] (you could use your username)
2. Choose a race for your character
3. Choose a class for your character

Unfortunately we can only have 1 of each, so no 2 human fighters etc.

Suggestions : I can't remember everything but what I can recall was that it's best to only have 1 thief and halfbloods make the best ones. Dwarfs are good fighters, elves are good mages, you get the idea. Just be whoever or whatever you want really :)

I'll post a description about each race and class so you can decide.

[B][U]Party Name[/U][/B] : Ivalice Force

3. Robin Human Thief (Kawada)
4. Echo / Elf Priest (Vexxxed)
5. Ambaria Narseek / Elf Mage (snake11)
6. Dead Spiders / Human Priest (Mumbai Duck)

Looks like it's all going well.


So does Praying or Using Miracles bring you closer to a god?
Or is it a combination of the two?

If it's just praying, it looks like we might be able to have one good priest and one evil priest after all... *ahem*


If we want to give Call Monster a go, we could move it to a higher rank in the sequence, for one battle.

Also, it sounds like plenty of training and praying would be useful. But it looks like we're doing that now.



And finally, ewww, I don't want to be using my spells on disease boy :^P
(I will really. Even though the rat probably gave him fleas too...)
