ooc: hello uwu thank you all for your positive response! i hope i can put up the site as soon as possible (i actually have put it cause i'm so excited too sksnshsks but i'm having a hard time fixing it because i'm only able to work with phone right now plus there's a lot of things that need particular attention) anw, here are some of the updates on the concept i'm recently working on.

MODERN TECHNOLOGY

technological advancement includes weapons and other techs. characters won't have to depend on swords or staff anymore as they have guns and hand cannons already (although players may choose so if it aligns with their character's aesthetic).

CLASS-BASED SYSTEM

adopting the basic rpg tropes, there will be four basic classes characters can choose from: warrior (soldier), rogue (assassin), magician (esper), and scholar (researcher). each class is distinguished by their battle style, choice of weapons, battle perks, and magoi abilities.

warriors rely on physical strength while magicians depend on magic. rogues and scholars can be physically/magically-dependent, but the former banks on their stealth while the other relies on their intelligence.

completing dungeon/dragon threads grants access to premium classes: dungeon capturer and summoner. they allow djinn equip and summoning, respectively. (summoning is an original rebirth feature to provide boons similar to djinn equip for magic-wielding characters l; they can summon the rukh of their slayed dragon into the field.) other premium classes include household vessel from dungeon capturer and acolyte from summoner (tbd).

exclusive classes are only available through event cycles. they function as subclasses for the original subclasses to broaden one's option for magoi abilities (e.g. mechanic subclass for scholar).

DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS

dungeons and dragons can be found in conquest threads. they function similar to raids and vary from being objective or combat-based. conquest threads are taken collectively (max. 4) while event conquest threads can accomodate broader numbers.

there may be criteria set for characters who fulfill ic requirements to earn the djinn/dragon from a particular conquest. these events are also death-enabled but will reward greatly.

AL THAMEN VS CHURCH

rebirth's story will revolve around three major narrative plots: each one is represented by the objectives to be fulfilled by al thamen executive (canon role). these narrative plots are crucial in fulfilling al thamen's goals and are also relevant in fulfilling the church's (or there may be narrative plots that are centered on church instead).

each narrative arc is packed with a lot of event cycles, each one builds up the story as it goes while providing a break to its otherwise dark genre.

REIM CONTINENT

there is still some considerations being made but there is an inclination to limit the central hub to the reim continent to avoid unnecessary complications in roleplaying in a worldwide setting, e.g. transportation, visa, etc.

if you guys are in i can make a discord grp to discuss these concepts so just lmk if you do! uwu @yumyums bc @java von

oh! what i meant with making reim the central hub is, making it a major place for the site plot but still allowing other countries to exist in the rp setting (eg heliohapt, kou, artemyra). but yes get what you guys mean! and i actually appreciate that input about nation politics conflict. maybe we actually work it out ^^

re: classes, i also understand how scholar and rogue are somehow sub archetypes of the warrior and magician classes xD but the reason i have for distinguishing them is because of their magoi abilities. each class activates/use magoi abilities depending on their quirks. eg

FOR MAGICIANS, they can use magoi that commands magic and affects the surroundings.
FOR SCHOLARS, magoi that alters magoi of the user or other characters

but yes, having this kind of system needs a lot of polishing too so nothing's final xD

sorry for late responses! will get my laptop ready this weekend so then i can start a gc. thanks for your inputs! uwu
