Wizardry 8, the Bay12 LP Thread
« on: April 17, 2014, 08:28:52 pm »

Wizardry 8 is a very old party-based RPG made by Sir Tech. (Now out of business, last I heard, this was the last game they made.)

SIGN UP FOR CHARACTERS:

Gender: This is pretty straightforward.
Race: Choose one of the following
-Human
-Elf
-Dwarf
-Hobbit
-Gnome
-Rawulf (Dog Person)
-Felpurr (Cat Person)
-Lizardman
-Drakon (Dragon Person)
-Fairy
-Mook (Monkey Person)

Class: With this, just tell me what you want, there's a bunch of classes, all with minute differences.
Magic is absurdly common, so if you want magic, you can have it. You can also get rifles (this is a weird in-game universe, there are even spaceships.) So go crazy.



ACTIVE CHARACTERS:

Yoink: Male Gnome Fighter [Kills: 3 crabs]
Descan: Female Fairy Viking Valkyrie [Kills: 2 crabs]
GUNINANRUNIN: Male Human Gadgeteer [Kills: 1 crab]
Mephansteras: Male Drakon Ninja [Kills: 2 crabs]
Elephant Parade: Male Human Bishop [Kills: 1 crab]
Tack: Male Hobbit Samurai [Kills: 3 crabs]

CHARACTERS:
MaximumZero: Male Dwarf Monk
Th4DwArfY1: Male Drakon Mage
Vector: Female Human Gadgeteer

Characters to be added later:

IronyOwl: Male Fairy Samurai
Evilsx: Female Drakon Lord
Darkening Kaos: Male Fairy Ninja
darkpaladin109: Male Mook Fighter
Knit Tie: Male Human Psionic

Might as well chalk it up to Pathos.
As this point we might as well invoke interpretive dance and call it a day.

Should I be a dwarf? I'm short, stumpy and broad, at any rate.

I'll take this as "Fighter", they are the best at hitting with large blunt objects.

Sure, I can change your character.
(Although due to the way the game works, dwarf monks are actually not so good, because they don't get stat increases for the first few levels, but it does stack the monk's damage resistance with the Dwarven Damage resistance, making them excellent tanks, so yeah, I'll change that for you.)

Gender: Male
Race: Drakon
Class: A violent wizard who hates blobs of slime. His brother was killed by one, don'tcha know.
Excellent.

This game has so many snipers and glass cannons you would not even believe it.
I think I'll make you a Gadgeteer, so you can have an actual sniper rifle.

Unfortunately, "Viking" is not an applicable class (the shame)
The closest things to that is "Valkyrie" which is restricted to female characters, or "Fighter", "Samurai", and "Lord"

Sure, why not, Female Fairy Valkyrie.

I would also accept berzerker, pirate, and Scotsman.

Wait, Lord?

Lords are fighters who can also cast spells. They were restricted to absurdly high-stat characters in V, which is the last one I played.
