Vitcussions and Vittutorials

You know what I can also use this as a tutorial section to. That way it's also a one stop place for any tutorials that may show up.

"Hello Dandy,". "It seems like you have befriended a person in the world who is looking to aid you,". "Either by being nice enough to someone, performing a certain task, or by proving yourself in battle, etc.,". "You can befriend people of Vitquest,". "Now then let me describe the two different partnerships you can enter as of right now,".

"The first type is what is occurring right now,". "An acquaintance,". "When you and a NPC become acquainted, they will help you on your journey,". "They will accompany you on their own and even aid you in battle,". "But they will still take actions on their own,". "You can still give them advice or suggestions and depending on the person they may easily follow your direction or continue to do their own thing,".

"The second type of partnership is called a party member,". "This is when an NPC chooses to follow you completely,". "You in a sense gain control of the person and control their every action,".

"Oh one thing before I forget,". "It is very possible to have an acquaintance become a party member,". "Usually by building their trust, but it could be after certain events, or a certain item or quest has been complete, or through some other method,". "You know they have become a party member when they either tell you a personal secret, reveal their true identity or intentions, or give you an item of importance,".

"In summary the GM controls an NPC when they are acquaintances,". "When they are a party member you the player controls them,". "It's entirely possible for an acquaintance to become a party members,". "There may be other differences and other types of links you can form,". "But for now you have a trial to complete,"

Short answer yes.

Just like in the old Vitquest games your free to send the following type of members to help out in a quest.


Assist/Partner characters: assuming they are actual characters. Unfortunately, you can't send the voice inside your head to go assist them. That's really the only restriction it has to be a physical character.

NPC that are Party Members Link: Yes since when an NPC becomes a party member they are completely under the characters control.

NPCs that are Acquaintances: No you can't send them because while they will aid and follow you on your quest. They are still controlled by me the GM. Story explanation they still are getting use to you. They sorta of trust you but not enough to do a separate quest for you.


Orb Characters: Yes they are free to join someone else on their quest. Same thing as party members they are completely controlled by you. Plus If you have an orb character out and want to send one away but not the one your using. You can send a character from your orb to go aid another player.

Ex.)

Fuzz is about to go inside a dangerous dungeon. But I already sent Bowser (my NPC) to go aid Crow on a quest. I have College Pixy outside of her orb following me since I down an assist character. Now Fuzz could really use the back up. So I send Lucina from my orb to go assist her. Plus maybe give her a sword from my orb for some type of weapon.

Now then to avoid complete clutter here are some basic ideas. Yes they can be changed at any time as the situation demands. Or if enough people want it to change.

1.) You can only have up 2 Player characters assist one another.

Ex.) Ultra has his partner and Crow's assist character and Digi's Orb character.

2.) Their is no limit to the amount of players that can be in one party. Reason being because you the actual players will be their and you can have direct influence over what's going on.

Ex) Fuzz, Crow, Ultra, Blood all decide to go inside a foreboding temple.

3.) If the assist/ orb character survives towards the end then they will receive some type of great reward. First off it be unfair to lock a quest item for someone who's not the player.

ex.) Dan is sending Luigi to aid Crow. But Luigi gets defeated saying Crow from a mortal blow. It would be unfair for Dan to lose out on his shard of an orb because Luigi died.

Second the great reward can range to a lot of gold, a rare weapon, rare armor, a chance to recruit a special NPC as a party member, etc.

Third if they get KO'd before completion then the rewards varies on how far they got.

Ex.) Dan would not get a reward if Luigi died in the first room, floor of a dungeon. But if Luigi died fighting a boss then he would get a pretty good reward.

4.) Now if an assist or orb character dies. The rest of the party will have one turn to either use a revival item on them or defeat/ clear the current area.

If Mally's Battman is KO'd during a battle he will begin to flash and cracks will begin to form. Since he's with Digi (player character) and Blood (he sent an assist character) they both have one turn to revive him or defeat the boss in front of them. Obviously it doesn't have to be everyone just one person has to revive him. If you fail to do so then the orb or assist character is treated as if they were KOd when traveling with you and return to the players orb. Which then they would revive with item or going to home base.

5.) Now then if that happens the player can't send someone else as a replacement unless it was a party wipe or the dungeon it's self is complete.

This way while Death is never permanent it is costly.

Yeah this is going to be a really long post but it's necessary to explain how it all works.

Anything that needs clarification or anything you want to suggest or add feel free again this is meant to be as free flowing as possible between all of us.
