FinalFantasyStuck

Greetings! Welcome to FFstuck. We're a Homestuck Roleplay with a Final-Fantasy-esque setting, incorporating aspects from multiple games. The country of Skaia is ruled by two rival cities, in a near-constant state of warfare: Prospit and Derse. However, even during this period, and there are a great many young heroes setting out to make names for themselves. Whether you be a lone fighter, a lerned spellcaster, a cunning thief, or even a notorious sky pirate, there are plenty of opportunities for adventure!

Congratulations, Gamzee, you have been accepted!

Name: Gamzee Makara

Age: 19 Job: Bard Biography: From the time Gamzee was small he doesn't remember a home. He travelled a lot with his small troupe that he considered family, his father being the leader of them although he wasn't much of a father to Gamzee and he'd never known his mother, all around Skaia, performing with them in their acts they used to fund themselves from the smaller towns scattered across the land. One of the elder boys Gamzee considered his older brother tried to teach him the ways of Mime but Gamzee would passively refuse to participate. Well he would, but no where near as enthusiastically as he would for other things. Eventually his brother figured out that Mime just wasn't for Gamzee. He had more fun singing his terrible songs, that had no music to them and were more akin to poetry than music as the term was understood in the land. His songs would fluctuate on a daily basis, on some days they would bring unity and hope and even a small boost in the healing power of some of their salves, on other days they would bring nothing but disaster to all who heard him. Gamzee had been cast out, too capricious of a bard to keep around if he couldn't control his own song/spell work. In the loneliness and the confusion that inevitably follows a massive upheaval of one's life that followed Gamzee found a substance, an herb, that would bury those feelings of loneliness and sorrow beneath a blanket of warmth. Soon it became a crutch, and Gamzee would go nowhere without some of that herb on his person than go without it to face those feelings once more. Thanks to the soothing power of that substance his songs became more helpful towards those he sang to, and people were convinced he was really a white mage, seeing as he never performed even an amusing offensive spell to have fun with the kids, instead of a bard. Gamzee didn't mind at all. Since then Gamzee followed much of the same route as he had before, singing where he could and hoping it would be a good song so he would get some money to spend the night somewhere aside from the road. Time to time he would meet up with his old troupe who had welcomed him back to which Gamzee declined their offer, saying that during his time alone he'd gotten used to the way things were and while he wouldn't mind performing with them he'd rather go his own way at the end. To this day he carries that substance with him, planting the seeds that form from it in more portable containers so he could have that warm feeling all the time. Personality: When Gamzee was small he was enthusiastic about things, practical and hard-working he looked up to the elder boy that had taken him under his wing when his father tried and failed to do. As he grew older he still tried to be hardworking, though he wasn't much respected due to his penchant of failing to do the things he was tasked to do preferring to spend time doing other things such as singing or simply getting distracted from the task leaving it unattended for hours until someone yells at him for not doing his job. Getting ejected from the troupe caused his personality to take a dramatic turn. He was desperate for friendship and that carried over even after he started taking that substance. He would talk of miracles this substance could produce and as it became a crutch for him he would speak of Gods his substance had shown him. He was still hard working, doing his best when he could but running when he felt scared or that he couldn't do what was being asked of him. Gamzee is a runner by nature, never one to face conflict he would ignore problems even as they stared him in the face and carry on his merry way as though they don't exist simply to keep the peace. Consequently he gets used quite often for his spell work, people would play with his emotions and heal their sick for free or cast helpful spells such as speed on the horses. He does it all with a smile, aware that they're using him but doesn't want to cause ripples by pointing it out and just being glad they're finding a use for him. For fun Gamzee enjoys singing to no one in particular, he's not much of a fighter but if push comes to shove he can shove with some oomph. He greatly dislikes confrontations, preferring the calm of ignoring ones problems even if others are shouting at him to face them. Definitely of the mindset that if you ignore it long enough it will go away.

[ffstuckrp]

Yes, I'd appreciate that a lot. The reservation is only for a week, correct?

That is correct.

[ffstuckrp]

hello, I'd like to ask about the application for a character? I'm interested in Gamzee and I was wondering if there was anything you wanted to see in order to accept me or not. (I have an ask blog that while it has been closed for several months it could still be used for references to my characterization along with casual posts I've made in character under a tag if you'd like to see those as well.)

We require a filled-out character sheet (the form can be found on the “submissions” page), but if you could provide us with examples of you roleplaying that is a definite bonus! You can link them in your application if you want.

Would you like me to reserve Gamzee for you?

Congratulations, John! You have been accepted!

Name: John Egbert

Age: 17 years

Job: Red Mage

Biography:

John Egbert was cared for by his father for most of his life in Esterholt. His father was a decent and not very well known red mage himself in a special league of red mages. John was fascinated with the concept of knowing and being able to do everything long (though being with a gang was cool too) before he realized they were never excelled in any certain category. Due to his fascination, his father taught him his trade over the years in his young childhood. John turned out to be a quick learner which was precisely what he needed to be before he stopped practicing. There had been some ill-rumours surrounding himself that his birth was the ultimate cause for his late grandmother’s death. Secluding himself in his home in Prospit to avoid causing further chaos and mayhem, he began to believe the rumour to be true. His belief became stronger as the years went on and on, causing him to be paranoid. With a push of his father, he was finally able to go outside on his own two legs and he began to embark on a journey to either wipe his slate clean or redeem himself.

Personality:

John is a bright and immature young lad.  He is rather rude and follows his own criteria for standards of communication. Overall he’s pretty laid-back and casual. He’s cheesy in his jokes and tastes, but he makes it up in his goofiness. He may be a little naive, but he’s no pure of heart chosen hero. He never seems to ever be simply lost and has some goal or direction to accomplish or go forth to. While he may be a nice guy, he typically doesn’t hesitate to say his mind. However, he does have an exception to this like all things should. When he feels particularly guilty or close to someone, he may have immense trouble spitting it out, but he gets the idea across awkwardly. He’s always up for a good adventure if offered and is normally upbeat and hard to bring down. He has incredible emotional endurance, but he cracks in the end. He will become irritable, cranky, and a big unintentional douche if the time warrants it or his mood demands it. He is extremely sentimental and seems to become a jarringly different person with his quiet demeanor when he is hit rather hard mentally. The kid is really into childish prankster gambits and typically sucks at them. A lot. John does not take the initiative or become a leader unless his buttons are pushed or he realizes it’s his time to do so. He’d rather take the backseat and chill, explore, and have, in general, fun. He just goes along with things as long as it doesn’t harm him like a leaf blowing in the wind. What right does he have to mess with the flow? He can be rather critical when aggravated and even violent in his words. He does not seem to have a way with language unfortunately. He tends to point out things he merely finds interesting if the time allows and there’s empty space to fill. Overall, he’s just a kid like he should be.

What is the maximum amount of characters each person can have?

To begin with, we are only allowing one character per person. Maybe after people have been active for a while we will allow them to apply for more, but right now would like to see a lot of different people joining!

[ffstuckrp]

And now we have a Latula as well!

Please make a blog and follow us on it ASAP :)

Name: Latula Pyrope Age: 18 Job: Warrior Biography: Latula grew up right outside of Deerport. With her lusus asleep for most of her childhood, Latula was forced to essentially raise herself. She used strangers for her own gain, using their pity as a way to find a bed to sleep in for the night. By the time Latula was 13, she stayed in the harsh, unforgiving land surrounding Deerport more often than she stayed in the town itself. A horde of monsters attacked her around this time, and only managed to survive thanks to a traveler who happened to be at the right place at the right time. This traveler, a Prospitian soldier who deserted from the army, agreed to teach Latula how to fight. After parting ways, Latula swore to become a warrior like the person who saved her life. Now, at the age of 18, Latula travels around Skaia, using her Warrior skills as she pleases. She works partly as a traveling entertainer, using her trusty hoverboard to perform tricks for bored crowds. She fights monsters for fun, though she is not above working as an exterminator for rich cowards who can't off a little monster or two by themselves.

Personality: As she grew up differently from most trolls and humans, Latula is not exactly the pinnacle of social grace. Brash, blunt, and enthusiastic about everything, she can easily be off-putting to those who don't know her too well. While she is actually very insecure, she tries not to let this show by putting up a persona that's larger than life. She tries to be what she considers 'cool,' but this facade is fairly easy to see through. She only drops it (and even then, not fully) for the few people who she trusts. She tries very hard to impress others. Usually, she does this through showing off her strength or her agility. She is highly skilled, though any boasting she does is just another part of her facade. Deep down, she thinks of herself as strange. Latula is highly affectionate with those she considers friends, though this affection usually comes out through high-fives given at full strength. She once broke someone's hand from high-fiving them too hard. She's considered odd by many who meet her, due to habits like this combined with her strange way of speaking.

Good job, Roxy, you have been accepted!

I know you already made a blog, so I'm just going to casually add it to the character page

Name: Roxy Lalonde Age: 18  Job: White Mage 

Biography: Roxy grew up on the edge of Cor Forest with her sister, Rose. Their mother was a powerful scholar capable of incredible magic, and Roxy was fascinated by magic from a young age. As she got older, she grew to specialize in white magic, and her talents in healing are phenomenal. When combined with her sister’s skill in black magic, they make a formidable team.

When they were old enough, Roxy and Rose set out to explore Skaia, and became travelling adventurers. They began with Derse, but have since traveled all over the continent. 

Personality: Although she is known as a healer, Roxy has a slight roguish quality to her too, and knows one or two thieves’ tricks. She loves travelling, as it gives her a chance to make new friends and see new places. Especially the friends thing. When you grow up on the outskirts of a forest, there aren’t that many people around to bond with, and it could get kind of lonely sometimes. Roxy has always dreamed of having some close friends she could rely on, and HOPEFULLY a boyfriend? (Sadly, Roxy’s many crushes are rarely requited.)

Roxy is likable, and pretty easy-going in her interactions with others, with an excellent (if crude) sense of humour. Yet from time to time she can be pushy, sometimes trying to get people to do things under the impression she’s helping them, or even making them uncomfortable with unwanted romantic overtures. She’s kind hearted and is willing to go out of her way to help others, often putting their needs before her own. This doesn't stop her from being a little bitter about it from time to time, though. Sometimes she wishes people would pay a little more attention to HER problems.

Speaking of problems, Roxy suffers from something of a drinking problem. Her dad leaves a whole bunch in the house so she figures hey, why not. Drinking is FUN. It makes you feel good, relax, and forget all your worries. What's not to like?? Not to mention the whole rebel teen drunk image is totally sweet. She says she could quit if she wanted but, well. Whether that's true has yet to be seen, since she's never actually attempted it.

Congratulations, Jane Crocker, you're accepted!

Name: Jane Crocker

Age: 17

Job: Red Mage

Biography:

Jane was born and raised in a merchant family in Deerport. They didn’t have much money, but got by with an inheritance from their predecessors. At age 7 Jane had shown a bit of aptitude with healing, finding a small rabbit outside her home that was injured and helping it heal faster than normal. After getting a scholar to test her on her magic, her father pulled from her inheritance and sent her to study in Prospit. She learned what she could, but she could never really master anything. At 15 she settled on being a Red Mage and left Prospit with what was left of her inheritance and began to wander the land.

Personality:

Jane is a somewhat reserved young woman with an affinity for rabbits. She has a bit of a stubborn streak on her, and a mean temper if allowed to boil over without any kind of outlet. Skeptical of any one whom is strange in appearance or mannerisms, she has a hard time trusting claims of people, even if the truth is shoved in her face with all the facts. She is still kind and a bit naïve when first meeting her, but she will help if you need it. She knows basic magic spells, her most powerful ones being water-based, but she also has some practice in somewhat more advanced healing spells. Not like anything the White Mages can do, but enough to make a small living out for providing these types of services. As of now, her quest has mostly been to practice her skills and try and get better at them, but she tends to take some side quests from time to time.
