Before the War of the Lions, which had made the one Delita hero to bring an end to the war, there was another that raged between Ivalice and another kingdom to the east, Ordallia. The rulers of the respective kingdoms, King Denamda II of Ivalice, and King Devanne III of Ordallia watched and commanded their armies with an iron fist, with neither desiring to give in to the other. The armies of the Northern Sky, Sothern Sky and Eastern Sky would make their hold on the wars for the side of Ivalice, while Ordallia would rally its own, singular army with that of another continent close, with Romanda. Brilliant tacticians commanded factions in the order, most noteworthy of these are Barbaneth Beoulve, whom was a commander of the Northern Sky, Cidolfus Orlandeau was commander of the Southern Sky, and Goffard Gaffgarion commanded the Eastern Sky. Of all the groups, the Northern Sky was far more diverse in their numbers, with some more well-recognized warriors in their ranks, which include Wiegraf Folles and Gustav Margriff.

The dying years of the war had the numbers of the Orders dwindle down, and it seemed that the war may result in Ivalice coming to a loss. In order to prevent this, many knight apprentices were brought out of their training earlier than expected, and were to fight alongside those who were training them. Many of these squires were once humble farmers, artists, merchants, and many lower-end jobs, not so much as fighters, but even then, they were able to think outside the box. Their stories are lesser known, but have been discovered after a long time. One such squad, that consisted of these talented apprentices of all the Orders of Ivalice, banded together and fought as a team against the rivaling armies. As well as their role, and fate, that day when the treaty was presented to Ordallia...

---------------------------------------------------

So, that is the general story concept; this takes place before the events of Final Fantasy Tactics unfold, so Ramza is not our main protagonist. The squad can consist of upwards to 7 others, myself included, but a bare minimum to get it going is 4 to start. I am open to others joining mid-RP, but only up to the maximum amount, since in Tactics, characters joined as the story progressed, either through defection, or under attack from a bandit group or what have you.

---------------------------------------------------

Now, here is a list of rules to go by if you are to partake...

1. No Metagaming/Godmodding! Nobody likes people who hit and dodge 100% of the time, and I know there are skills that provide those boons, I won't permit them here. Play fair, be a good sport, and we can avoid drama.

2. Start simple! As I said in the story, the squad members are all apprentices; even though they are talented among their peers, they are still either a squire or chemist out of the gate. The squire can be modified, if only SLIGHTLY, to make your own class, but they must include the basic Fundamentals, anyways.

3. Follow the order! To keep a sense of order in this, I will set up a turn order, determined with pulling names out of hats.

4. Mostly story RP. This RP is meant to be mostly story, though considering the site that Blue Moon is, under certain circumstances, I might allow relationships between characters to develop. Try not to get out of hand; the super lovey-dovey scenes with a lot of kinks should be taken to IM/PMs, though vanilla scenes, or ones that have a purpose in story development may be allowed with my permission.

5. Have fun! Clearly, I shouldn't have to go into explanation with this one! XD

---------------------------------------------------

Before I make the actual RP and character sheet, I just want to see what kind of attention this gets. Remember, only 6 others may join, tops, but 3 is required to get this off the ground.
 
That's exactly what we're discussing, Alura. One fight for a level 1 job to become level 2, two additional fights for a level 2 job to become level 3 (making 3 fights total at this point), and so forth.
 
Should we continue to discuss mechanics here, or should we switch over to the ooc thread? And also, since we completed the battle, should we all go ahead and level up our characters and pick our new skill?
