I'm making a game with visual basic, called Celtic Crusader, when i thought,"maybe i could make an RPG of it on here," so I guess I am, lol. Celtic Crusader is simply about fighting monsters, leveling up, and quests. There are certain types of people that level up into other types, such as the Paladin class, it can either level up into Knight, or Royal Guard. This will also be the most complicated RPG I've ever made, lol. Below is character sheet:
Name: Bio: Age: Gender: Class: (choose below) Weapon: (depends on class) i put Armor: (depends on class) i put Shield: N/A (yet) Ring: N/A HP: 50/50 XP 0/100 Gold: 0 Level: 1 STR: * DEX: * INT: * STA: * CHA: * Attack: * Defense: * Location: *
*: Matters by what class you choose.
Classes
Warrior A brute lost in charisma and intelligence, but makes up for in attack and defense.
Leveling up: Viking - Jarl / Warrior -- Mercenary - Man of War \\ Buccaneer - Pirate Captain
Thief As in most RPGs, there is a gap between fighter and archer classes, well, in this RPG, the Thief class fills that gap. Although not as strong as most fighters, his/her up-coming is picking locks on doors and treasure chests (hence the name).
Thats all the classes, here is weapon and armor info:
Class Weapon
Warrior Axe Paladin Sword Thief Club Scout Bow Mage Staff
Class Armor
Warrior Leather Armor (+1 defense) Paladin Iron Chainmail (+2 defense) Thief Black Clothes (+1 Attack) Scout Green and Brown Clothes (+1 Attack) Mage Robes (+0)
As you level up, more weapons and armor will be avalible.
If the players decide if they want to be in a group, such as D & D, all players start in Dublin. (PST!!! D & D was actually made AFTER the Celtic Crusader Card game, and the maker of D & D used it as a guide to make D & D, lol) The original card game was played, by rolling a 20 sided dice for each attribute, then the attribute calculations were worked, and you got your, say, attack, defense, or magic, etc.
As i said earlier, this game is VERY complicated, and if you have played any of the D & D RPGs in this forum, you might have a slim knoledge of what happens. Also, I should mention, this game takes place 20 years after the happenning of 1066 (war over Britian, has to do with Vikings, Italians [i think], and the original British) in Ireland.

uh, actually, Connaught would be the starting location, but i fixed it for you.
You start out in the back-allies of Connaught, and you see a carrige walk by. What do you do?
1. I don't know what to add to "Bio", considering I know absolutely nothing about the background story (time, place and stuff like that). 2. Obviously, we're not going to have negative stats... is

the way we'll do it? On second thought, I just saw Jetcord with a negative STR stat... what would that mean for a player, say me, with -6? 3. Never played D & D, know virtually nothing about it, but I can understand the dice system.
The positive and negative stats are the calculations for the dice roll, and help you do things, example, you want to do a magic attack, i roll the dice for magic, and i get a 7, 7 + 9 = 16, then we times that by your attack, and you get your attack. But there are several other factors that come into play, that would be a bit to extensive to explain. Do you understand why i said "This is a very complicated game" now?

well, all the stats aregoing to be used in this game, some right away, others, not so much. Each stat number changes the outcome of what happens. sorry if i didn't give you enough info on this, casue i'm using a book that tells you how to progra this stuff into a video game, instead of making a forum game.
Do you understand why i said "This is a very complicated game" now?
That's not even close to my top ten most complicated things (a list which I have not made, but I can pretty much guess)!
"So, let me get this straight... you are reading a manuscript of the 'conversation' we are having right now - it's not really a conversation, it's me watching your video tape! - , which you got from the future?!" "Wibbly, wobbly, 'timey', 'whiny' stuff." (Doctor Who, lol, although the words are not the same)
So, let me get this straight... you are reading a manuscript of the 'conversation' we are having right now - it's not really a conversation, it's me watching your video tape!
What video tape?
for the bio, just put anything you want to that could be your characters past.

What video tape?
It's complicated . Anyway, the Doctor was trapped in 1969 and gave a piece of information to a man who had met the woman with whom the Doctor would be having the 'conversation' I mentioned. That piece of information was to be given to that woman so that she would watch the video tape her friend had (or did she have it? I unfortunately only watched half of that episode) and know how to avoid being killed by angels (who, here, were a.k.a. "silent assassins" or something, 'cause every time they were looked at, they would turn into statues of stone... while when all eyes were averted from them, they were free to slay whomever they wished) while trying to get to the Tardis and somehow get it back to the Doctor. Unless you know the series, this is all going to seem to make no sense to you.

You start out in a house. Outside, you hear a dog scraping at your door. What do you do?

You start out at the barracks, in the training room. You are standing next to a training bag (a heavy bag full of sheep wool and rocks). What do you do?
