With a great struggle I spend days stumbling around trying to get a handle on the control of the three bodies with speaking and learning how to use the weapons as best as I can, I decided Hanma would be better with the longbow like a sniper since he's soon to be heightened senses from his Archetype; order of the Lycan making him perfect for stealth when needed and Draken is the close combat of the team because of his class so he gets the Great axe while Sanzu Archetype is gloom stalker making him also perfect for stealth but closer in contact unlike with bows like Hanma. If it wasn't for Kesor helping us by pointing out things we can eat until I can get a grip on things I wouldn't have survive and I use my down time to read through our character sheets thoroughly.
"I want a bed." Hanma complained from his branch in the tree we've used to sleep in for the night and layed in a while longer after waking up.
"Well, I want a warm bath so shut the fuck up." Sanzu sassed before giving the leg he could reach a kick.
"We all know that we have the same mind so why are we arguing!" Hanma replied to the kick which Draken rolled his eyes at before answering.
"Because we're bored plus we're practicing speaking so whenever we meet people they won't notice we basically have a hive mind." With that Draken hops down with the two following behind as Kesor appears from wherever she was.
"I believe you're finally ready to explore the island of Iris as you've been on its beach for the pass few days." She snapped the HUD into existence once again to show a unfinished map with the island name at the top and three small yellow dots flashing on the only beach of the entire island.
"Well, you wouldn't let us go farther then a mile out." Hanma complained to the floating child.
"You wouldn't survived a day out there without a good handle on your control, some beast or wildlife would have killed you for dinner!" She puffed up her cheeks while her arms are crossed over her chest right as a notification pops up in the middle of the HUD.
(Main quest)
Congratulations! You have completed the tutorial inorder to survive this brand new world! Here's your reward!
- Rage
- Hunter's Bane
- Favored Enemy
- Favored Terrain
Each of us expect Sanzu has one class feature unlocked which allows us to read them now, we glanced at each other before doing so.
Rage (Draken)
While raging, you gain the following benefits when not wearing heavy armor:
- Strength improves
- When using a melee weapon with the new improved strength you may or may not gain a bonus of extra damage
- You are harder to slash, price, and bludgeoning
- Raging last 1 minute unless you are knock unconscious and you can only rage one time a day as of now.
Hunter's Bane (Hanma)
You have survived the Hunter's Bane, a dangerous, long-guarded ritual that alters your life's blood, forever binding you to the darkness and honing your senses against it. Now you can track fey, the undead, and fiend's as while being able to recall information about them.
The Hunter's Bane also empowers your body to control and shape hemocraft magic, using your own blood and life essence to fuel your abilities. Be warned! A target may resist some features if they know how to.
(At midnight you'll go through the painful process of the Hunter's Bane to never be the same again)
Favored Enemy (Sanzu)
Your favored enemy is monstrosities!
You can track and recall information on them while being able to speak their language if they can speak!
Favored Terrain (Sanzu)
Your favored terrain is Forest!
When using a skill inside your favored terrain your proficiency improves while traveling an hour or more inside gives you the following benefits:
- Difficult terrain can't slow the group down
- Your group can't be lost unless magical means
- Even when you are engaged in another activity while traveling you remain alert to danger
- If your are traveling alone, you can move stealthily at a normal pace
- When you forge you're able to find more food then usual
- While tracking other creatures, you also learn their exact number, size, and how long it's been since they have passed through the area
"Welp, you're leading us through this forest as it's your specialty." Hanma gives Sanzu a shove.
"I can't wait to watch you weather in pain tonight!" Sanzu snarled back while giving a glare in return of the shove but only caused Hanma to laugh which Draken sighed at before leading the other two farther into the forest.
"Kesor, is there any towns on this island?" She nods, pointing in northeast and southeast directions.
"There's only two villages since this island doesn't get a lot of visitors which I'm only allowed to point you the direction they're in." She shrugged her shoulder before following behind us and so it quickly because night which we already choose a tree to sleep in, Hanma groans at the aches going through his body also causing it to sweat which we quickly decide to move to the base of the tree so Hanma can't fall from it and get injured. The higher the moon rises the more the aches become, Sanzu has Hanmas sweating head laying on his lap while Draken uses a piece of cloth to lay on his forehead try to cool him off as we already removed his clothing expect his pants. We stayed awake with him a night, at some point we had to force a thick stick between his teeth so can't break them.
