I was chatting with a friend the other day and we were talking about Virtual Reality and what we would do if it was real. We were at a party so I couldn't stop and just start typing it then. But it gave me an Idea. What if I did some Virtual Reality Threads where you as your real self had a interaction in the Threads.

Then I thought No that wouldn't work but If I had a person like your real life self interact with the thread before the beginning of the thread it might. I started looking into the Forum and Game Rps to see if anyone has ever done anything even remotely similar to this.

As far as I can determine nothing comes close to what I want to do. For the most part I don't think anyone would think this would work. But hey I am always up for a good challenge so maybe I can pull it off.

The first thing about the VRT (Virtual Reality Thread) is That I am going to link them all together. It won't be just one thread but multiple threads. All of them will have a few things in common.

ONE: All of the people who join the VRT will have a unique entrance that is determined by a few facts.
First: By your name. In all the threads that you are in you will keep the same name.
Second: your age. The only way your age will change is if you have your birthday.
Third: Your occupation. What your job is will determine how the computer of the VR will interact with you. Your occupation can change.

Also I want as real as we can get. If you don't want to give up personal info you don't have to make something up. I am going to be creating a database for the VRT and build profiles for everyone who joins one of the threads.

TWO: All the the Threads will start out will you entering VR and selecting the thread pretty much. This way it give you the feel of really being a part of the thread yourself, instead of just having your Character that you design play it.

THREE:Every time you play a part of one of the threads you will have the same name for your character, but the personality of the Character can change depending on how you feel like you want to play the Character. Once again this will give you a better feeling of your character being you then something that couldn't be possible.

A good example of the kind of thing I want to do is like .//hack, You play a character but you character can change how they go about their game play.

AND FOUR: All the VRT will be extremely interactive. Your environment in the game will affect you and so will other things. Like weather, the other players. And things like that.

The Second thing about VRT is I really would like it if everyone didn't start making these types of threads because

One: It will get really confusing to the people if you are doing a database like I plan to. And

Two: it is kind of rude to take a completely unique idea like this and start using it.

That doesn't mean that you can't do it I just would appreciate it if everyone and their brother didn't start doing it.

Well I think that just about covers everything that I have to Say on Virtual Reality Threads.

This is the Sign Up Sheet

Okay, In this Tournament the environment will play a part in your fights. There will be five different environments. Mountains, Ocean, Forest, Desert, and A Mystery Terrain. When you are fighting try to Image yourself actually there and doing that so you can get a better feel of the type of environment that your character will be fighting in. and take all of that into account when you fight.

In the Mountains it is just like the mountains. There will be natural happenings for example. If you cause an explosion It will result in a rock slide. If you are high enough in the mountains you could cause a avalanche. Also there will be wind and other conditions.

You will be fighting on a floating platform. The waves will be rocking the platform so take that into account. Also there could be storms so be careful.

The forest is thick and deep. There are animals in there so there will be noises and movement in there. Also there could be fires and storms in the forest.

The desert. It is really hot and moving on the sand is hard. (Please take this into account when you are fighting) Plus there can be sand storms.

This will be revealed later. It will be for the Championship match.

First Rule) Your environment will take a affect on what you can and can't do. So take that into account when you fight. IF you do not you will be breaking this rule.
Second Rule) NO GOD MODDING.
Third Rule) No more than 15 posts in between my posts. That way I can have the environment interact with your battle even if I am not on at the time.
Fourth Rule)PM all Character Sheets to me
Fifth Rule) IF you do NOT follow the rules you will lose your match.

You must PM them to me
Name) If you can't figure it out you need help.

Age) 15-40

Time Zone) What Time Zone is your Character from.

Gender) Male/Female. NO GENDER BENDING

Description) Weight, height, hair color, hair style/cut/length, eye color, skin tone, type of clothing, color of clothing, etc. (I want it as detailed as possible. How would some random person describe your Character to someone else if they looked at them. That would include all weapons that can be seen and where they are.)

Equipment) All weapons and Armor. (If you don't name the weapon and use it later you will lose your match automatically)

Powers) Any and all powers approved by me.(Once again if you use a power that you did not get approved by me, then you lose your match.) (Modern characters won't have powers)

This is where the Knights, Wizards/Witches/Sorcerer/etc, Samurai, etc are from. Characters from here will use weapons from that time Zone. (Includes Swords, bows, claymores, maces, axes, sledges, clubs, daggers, etc)

In this Time Zone Guns were just being made you have everything from the Medieval Era plus black powder guns and Revolvers.

All character will be Military. This is present time Zone Guns play a large part of the Weapons. Be careful with explosive weapons though they have a affect on all terrains. Not all modern weapons will be accepted.

You will be given a limited amount of ammo each round. If you go over the given ammo you lose the match.

Ok, so what do I need to do?

I have a couple. I'm new to rp (though I've played tabletop). How will we resolve combat or will you do that?
Secondly you mention dark ages weapons and wizards so is there magic?
Finally: is it all pvp? And if so how many people are you aiming for?
And to those posted above: Read. He talls you to pm him a character sheet and tells you what you need.
Edit: Forgot, would you be able to cross time periods or terrains prior to champs?

OK This is a Player Vs Player combat just like all other tournaments I am just adding Environmental elements into the Combat where the terrain and weather will effect the conditions in which battle will....
OK let me try that again THE Weather and terrain will be taken into account when you fight the other player. If it is windy and you are up high take into account that the Wind is going to make moving a little harder. If you are fighting on the FLoating Platform the waves are going to make it bob up and down making moving and keeping balance hard also the Platform is going to get wet making it slippery. and so on and so forth. All I am doing is adding a new element to the tournament and by having it as a Virtual Reality i can control it better and allow all times to fight each other. Does that help explain things?
