Epic Fantasy RPG
-------------------------------------
Background
Epic Fantasy RPG is about forming your hero from meager beginnings. Through trials and ordeals created by your "DM" (known as a Creator here), you will create a unique story through which you will guide your character to become what you wish. Want to make an Elven rogue/mage? A human blood mage/necromancer? A minotaur? Go for it! Just follow the rules and let your imagination take you on your journey of epicness.
Character Sheet
This is a template for you to use. Make sure to copy/paste an updated version in every post you make.
Note--You start of will 20 skill points, which you can put into Hit Points...Agility. One skill point allotted to Hit Points or Energy gives +5. You must put at least 1 point in every attribute.
Edit: Strength is the flat damage you deal. Weapons have multipliers that affect your damage (weapons may also have special effects).
Defense is the flat amount of reduction in damage you take. Armor has multipliers that affect your damage reduction (and may also have special effects).
Agility is your ability to hit the target and avoid being hit; it also may affect circumstances you come across (such as jumping across a pit or running away). In the event of a battle, every point of agility that you have more/less than the opponent is equivalent to a 5% chance to be hit/hit. Example (ignoring defense):
You: 20HP, 1 STR, 20 agility
Enemy: 20HP, 1 STR, 5 agility
You have 100% to hit the enemy, while enemy has 25% chance to hit you.
Result: You kill the enemy and take 5 damage.

Pets: n/a
---------------------------------------------
An example of a character sheet. Your character doesn't need a biography. And in fact it would be better to keep it a secret, and you can hint toward it in many ways throughout the course of the RPG.

Story Start
Grasping your stick, you look around. Apparently, you have fallen into a hole and have been out for some time. Of your past, you remember little. You feel a rough sensation on your head. Above you, the moon gives you a little bit of light, but it is too dark to see around you. What will you do?

Example:
Hello. I'm sure you're all wondering why you're reading this. Likely because you thought this would be something interesting. I am going to tell you right now that you might have made the correct decision if not for the fact that trusting strangers is something your parents told you not to do when you were a kid. You should always, always listen to your parents on every single issue ever. Therefore I regret to inform you that reading this was a complete waste of your time.
