"Ooooh no you don't," the man says gripping your arm tightly. "You have to pay first!" You look at the price tag.
"1 MILLION CINII?" you gasp looking at all the zeros.
"Well, since you seem like a nice lad, I'll let you use the portal freely if you pay 1 gil," he thinks stroking his chin. Strangely you seem to have picked up some 'gil', a coin you found every time you did something.
"what will it be?" he says, finally letting go of your arm which is now in tremendous pain. He sits down on a chair next to the portal awaiting your response.

- Secrets of Earthia -
Introduction
The outside world awaits...
The hidden secrets of Earthia lie hidden within the mist...
Monstrous beings you never knew existed...
Incredible powers you never thought possible...
Are you ready to take the challenge?
Based on Final Fantasy Tactics and the Booth Game, this is the new booth game that will change the way you post in the forums forever. Since Asyluman has given me control over the booth game, I have undertaken the painstakingly long task of balancing the game. The way Asyluman made the game was far too easy. So, do you think you're ready for a more intense game?
Now that the reason this game was created is no longer needed, this game will take place in the colosseum.
Starting Off
- To start off, you MUST have a Darkstorm Character. For information on creating DarkStorm characters, simply use the links on the left hand side of the page if you are using the docked forums.
- After creating a DS character, RP your registration in this topic and proceed to create a character.
Statistics
Level (LVL) - This is the character's level, determining the power of the character.
Strength (STR) - This is your physical power, affecting physical attacks.
Intelligence (INT) - This is your magical power, affecting magical attacks.
Health Points (HP) - This is the vitality of the character. When this reaches 0, the character dies.
Magic Points (MP) - This is the spell capabilites of the character. MP is required to cast spells and when you don't have enough, you cannot cast them.
Experience Points (EXP) - This is the experience of the character. When the character does an action, he gains EXP. When you reach 100 EXP, you gain a level and coming from it, more power.
Creating a New Character
- You must choose which class tree you will go on, the Squire or the Chemist class tree. The Squire class tree will lead you to physical classes, while the Chemist class tree leads you to magical classes.
- You start at LVL 1 with 0 EXP.
- You have 6 stat points to distribute between STR and INT.
- You have 200 capacity points to distribute between HP and MP. HP costs 1 point while MP costs 2.
Fighting Monsters
- Monsters will wander around the forums and you can only attack by posting a relevant topic response. As a result, there will be monsters only in topics that will have a fair amount of non-spam discussion involved.
- The way you should go about this is to post your response and separate the RPing section below with a line.
- As for the way the battle should work, it will be similar to DS (turn-based). You can attack or use a skill on your turn.
- Normal physical attacks do (STR) damage.
- If you have a skill which has a casting time, indicated by '>'s before the skill name, you cannot do anything while charging. Each '>' means a turn of charging. You can decide to cancel casting your spell but MP required to cast the spell will be consumed.
- EXP is gained by completing an action in the game (so cancelling a charged skill will not give you EXP). The amount is determined by your class, although in most cases it will be the same. EXP gain is immediate, so once you complete an action you gain the EXP straight away.
- When you gain a level during battle, your HP and MP recovers the amount that was gained as a result of leveling, so if you gained 30 HP and 10 MP, you will recover 30 HP and MP.
- If you are victorious, normally you will gain items and/or gold.
- If you are defeated, you lose all your EXP (but not levels) and from both sides if applicable.
Leveling Up
- Once you get 100 EXP, you gain a level.
- You gain 6 stat points to distribute between STR and INT.
- You gain 50 capacity points to distribute between HP and MP. HP costs 1 point while MP costs 2.
Equipment
- Equipment can be bought at shops or found from monsters.
- You may only equip one item per equipment 'slot':
> Weapon
> Shield (cannot be used when using 2 handed weapons unless a skill allows you to do so)
> Helmet
> Body
> Legs
> Overall (takes up both body and legs slots)
> Robe
> Gloves
> Shoes
Choosing Another Class Tree
- Once you reach LVL 10, you may choose to go on another class tree. This gives you a separate level from your initial selection.
- By choosing to go on another class tree, you can freely change between the class trees when you are not in battle. You gain EXP towards the class tree that you are on when you are in battle.
- You start on the new class tree at LVL 0. You DO NOT gain any stat or capacity points.
- Choosing another class tree gives you access to certain classes otherwise not available if you stick to one.
Transferring Characters Over From the Old Booth Game
The new system can allow players from the old booth game to transfer their characters over the new one. However, modifications must be made.
- Your EXP must be changed. Every post for the old booth game is equal to 10 EXP.
- Your EXP must go towards one class tree only. That is, you cannot place EXP in both class tree, even if you reach LVL 10 as a result.
- When finished calculating your EXP, you can then edit the rest of your stats accordingly.
GameMasters(GMs)
GMs are people that have powers over SoE, so that running the game is easier. There are GM levels which determine the power of the GM.
Level 1 - GM
This GM can create normal monsters.
> N/A
Level 2 - Super GM
This GM can create all monsters and normal quests.
> N/A
Level 3 - Global GM
This GM can create all monsters, all quests and equipment.
> Asyluman
> Denirik
> Ferret Overlord
Level 4 - Supreme GM
This GM can create all monsters, all quests, all equipment and alter the game. You agree to sacrifice being a player if you take up this role.
> Reikin
Under no circumstance is any Global GM or under is allowed to use their powers to create anything for themselves or others without work. Any found doing so will have their GMship terminated and their character voided from the game.
---------------------
From here, this is information for GMs.
Rules for Creation
- Normal monsters will have similar attributes to players at the same level WITHOUT ITEMS. Use this to judge how strong your monster should be.
- Try not to create a normal monster that would cause a player to level too quickly (15 EXP is the maximum allowed per normal physical attack).
- Normal monsters should not drop two or more equips.
- Equips found from normal monsters cannot have any abilities whatsoever.
- The power of items should go in this order:
Normal Drop < Normal Item Forge < Boss Drop < Boss Item Forge
---------------------
The game is still under development and frequent changes may be made.

I don't care about altering the game, and you know me well enough to know that I don't powerplay 
And am I allowed to have both my characters? If so, sign both up, if not, disregard Drathonian
