TAKE DOWN: INFINITY SHIFT ~FORUM RPG~

Sorry this is so dead. I've been working a lot. Haven't been spending much time online.

Post-Pause Button!

It appears the pause button did not freeze the game. Instead, events played out while you all were away... (read: while I was being a lazy dork)
During the Seymour Battle, Cagnazzo was defeated. The summon beast swiftly returned to the heavens, and Seymour cowing before your might, opened a strange portal made of dark energy. He quickly jumped inside, followed swiftly by Elements and EvilEagles. However, Zeuzio and MrChearlie were too late to jump in also, as the portal closed.

In the Don's office, the group found nothing, as someone had already stolen everything of value. There was no visible sign of Locke either! Where could he be?

Where indeed? Locke in this dark cavern has found no way out yet. While he has escaped three large cavernous chambers by now, he is evidently no closer to finding an escape route.
It is now so dark, that he can see nothing, and only feel his way.
The lamp has gone out, and has no use here anymore. It was discarded long ago.

Back in the Prison house, the small party selectively presses their hands on four sides of the Crystal left by Allen Hunter's Sacrefice.
The Party gains the Black Mage job class!
Archeia gains - 1 Silk Robe, 1 Hi-Potion, 1 Ether, 232 gil! Also, Ability: Fire!
Storm gains - 1 Green Beret, 3 Tents, 1 Ether, 232 gil! Also, Ability: Ice!
RabitZ gains - 1 Rubber Boots, 1 Rope, 1 Ether, 232 gil! Also, Ability: Thunder!
Xavion gains - 1 Scorpion Tail, 1 Remedy, 1 Ether, 232 gil! Also, Ability: Bare Hand!

Khos and Arthur trade blows for a while, but ultimately, Arthur slumps over and says, "Y'know? You... You're alright. -hick!-"
The two share drinks and war stories. Apparently, Arthur is from the future, and has very little holding him to this prison, except the knowledge that he failed to save his world, when the timelines all got mixed up.
According to Arthur, the space/time continuum is not so straight-forward than one would imagine. There is a singularity point in the 1st Dimension that defines the universe. Everything else is just a catastrophic outcome of various circumstances. That every world roots from the same point, and turned out differently through a variety of evolution or ideas that changed the face of the planet.
In his future, people can eat monster parts to change into creatures.
Khos, at this note, deduces that Arthur should meet Xavion someday.
And so, Arthur Joins the Party! (NPC)


Let's Re-cap!
Locke - in a dark dungeon. You may request additional information or attempt anything. Currently, you are resting against a rocky wall.

Ceal, Ques, Selphie, Indrah - You are in the Don's room, but there is nothing here for you to do. You cannot find the button for the trap door, as no one in the party is perceptive enough. All you can do is return to the Prison.

Archeia, Storm, RabitZ, Xavion - You are in the centre of the Prison town. You may wait here and twiddle your thumbs or have Xavion teleport you all into a Desert Survivor mini-game.

Zeuzio, MrChearlie - You are in the Sandworm birthing pit, alone. There is nothing for you here, unless you want to waste time killing Sandworm larvae.

Elements, EvilEagles - You are no longer in the game, but may return at a later point (you will be notified.)

Khos, Arthur - You are in the junkyard outside the Prison town.

The Four-Person Party rule is still in effect, however, it is unlikely you will be entering combat anytime soon.

So my current 7 skill slots would be split 4/3 for each class? but what I meant was that if I say later changed Black Mage for Knight would all my Black Mage skills be swapped for Knight skills?
and one other question Does bare hand still work while transformed?

I specifically gave Bare Hand to you for that reason.
As for how skills work... I know this is an ever-changing system. Bare with me. I'm trying to balance everything as new things are added.
So far we haven't had to deal with Job Classes changes, but yes. The idea would be... You change jobs, you lose previous job-class specific skills and replace the same number of skills from the new job class pool.
Are you certain you want Black Magic?
