Encounters (no ontology)

From Mazeworld

Revision as of 19:56, 30 March 2014 by SU Tempest (Talk | contribs)

Aside from finding a variety of items, the contestant's primary source of interaction and fights comes from encounters he/she makes.

An encounter is a broad word to define anything that can be met or fought that isn't an item, a mission, or a trap. It encompasses all monsters, enemies, shops, services, and so on of the game, but missions have their own section, being part of scripted events.

Creatures may be hostile, neutral, peaceful, or afraid. A hostile creature will immediately attack the contestant, a neutral one ignores it (becoming hostile only if attacked voluntarily), a peaceful one will not attack the contestant, or sometimes, help him/her, and afraid ones will try to run away from the contestant.

Creatures may be also given a strength perk: WEAK, None, STRONG and SUPER STRONG. WEAK monsters suffer from 2x received damage, while STRONG monsters benefit from 0.5x (half) received damage, and SUPER STRONG enjoy 0.25x (one quarter) received damage. No strength perk means 1x received damage.

Lastly, humans and certain youkai may have randomly generated physical appearance through the use of Physio codes.

Please refer to the individual articles of each creature to obtain more detailed information.

Perverted encounters put up a special kind of situation, where if they manage to score 12, the fight will end and your character will be raped. For certain of them, you may roleplay, but for others, your contestant will have to fight.
