Basic Story Outline: You are sent into a pyramid to rescue an army commando that failed to return from an exploration mission. You hunt though the pyramid and find his dead body, and a bunch of masked gunmen nearby. They open fire on you, but you manage to shoot through them and escape the pyramid. Drones sent out by your commanding AI discover that there is a whole infrastructure of these gunmen, who are calling themselves the FLAK organization. You infiltrate their research lab, take out the commander, and discover that he had been trying to figure out how to use a jewel that emitted energy signals not familiar to this world, that he wanted to find a powerful treasure that would allow him to take over Russia, and that he thought this was the treasure. You steal the treasure and discover that it allows you to talk to the dead. You talk to the spirits of several of the corpses you have encountered in your journey, and try to get some information as to why this has happened to you. Finally, you believe the answer lies at the tomb in the center of the pyramid, and you stage a risky assault into the center of the pyramid. Along the way, you find the legendary explorer, Sergeant Henson, and discover the massive, legendary snakes called the Anacondas. You are forced to fight one off as you make your way into the throne room. After a desperate fight to the central tomb, you find a massive tablet inscribed in glowing energy. It describes a number of incredible, powerful treasures (like a time machine and a shrink ray) just waiting to be discovered in the pyramid, your jewel being one of the bunch. These jewels were dropped off on Earth nearly a millennium ago, from an alien race that wanted to wipe out humanity by making them go to war over these incredible treasures (which to them were normal pieces of technology). Realizing what is at stake, you set a remote controlled nuke in the center of the pyramid, make your escape, and blow the entire pyramid to pieces from the outside. FLAK, the treasures, the Anacondas- all are vaporized in this massive explosion. You are left sitting in a chopper, taking a last glance at the charred rubble of the great pyramid, wondering what you could have done if you managed to find those other treasures…
Max stats: 1000 for HP and MP, 100 for the rest.

Stat increases: 10 for HP and MP, 1 for the rest.
Max level: 100
Attribute points per level: 7
Skill Points per level: 0
All skills are at 0 and only Arcane should increase.
NO potion limits.
All players start with 100 Gil and get 5 for each post and 10 for each thread. Gil should be hard to come by!
All items are going to be divided into three "stat levels". Level 1 items are for users at level 1, level 2 items are for users at level 20 (think: 250 HP and MP, 25 for the rest), and level 3 items are for users at level 55 (think: about 500 HP and MP and 50 for the rest). The rule is that the TOTAL, MAXIMUM damage for any weapon should never go above his level's STR. The rule for MAG is that no amount of spell damage should ever go above the user's HP, but anything that high should be very hard to use.

Major NPCs:
Commander NPC: This military AI is your rather secretive and blunt commanding officer, who gives you basic orders on a regular basis. He also keeps you supplied from Base Camp and gives you intelligence about areas in the Pyramid. However, you are not completely sure of it’s intentions.
Commander Cory: The leader of one of the first military expeditions into the pyramid who never returned. He is found dead near the exit to the Entrance Hall. It is believed he was killed by FLAK mercenaries. His spirit is angry and disappointed that he barely scratched the surface of the pyramid, but he accepts the necessity of his actions. He also gives you some helpful advice.
FLAK Commander: The leader of an extremist group of Russian terrorists, the mysterious leader of FLAK keeps himself hidden far inside his research lab. He believes a powerful treasure awaits him at the bottom of the pyramid, one that could allow him to overthrow the Russian democracy and become a dictator of a reborn world superpower. Unfortunately, he may be right.
Sergeant Henson: A famous sergeant and explorer who vanished well over a century ago, he managed to get as far as the Snake Pit before being killed by Anacondas. Ironically, the dead bodies of several Elite Guard FLAK troops lay nearby, clearly more victims of the brutal snakes. Some of his skeletal remains have managed to survive all this time. Though the curse of death has driven his spirit quite insane, he seems to have now passed into a state of nirvana and patiently awaits his last mortal tethers to turn into dust.

Major NPCs:
Commander NPC: This military AI is your rather secretive and blunt commanding officer, who gives you basic orders on a regular basis. He also keeps you supplied from Base Camp and gives you intelligence about areas in the Pyramid. However, you are not completely sure of it’s intentions.
Commander Cory: The leader of one of the first military expeditions into the pyramid who never returned. He is found dead near the exit to the Entrance Hall. It is believed he was killed by FLAK mercenaries. His spirit is angry and disappointed that he barely scratched the surface of the pyramid, but he accepts the necessity of his actions. He also gives you some helpful advice.
FLAK Commander: The leader of an extremist group of Russian terrorists, the mysterious leader of FLAK keeps himself hidden far inside his research lab. He believes a powerful treasure awaits him at the bottom of the pyramid, one that could allow him to overthrow the Russian democracy and become a dictator of a reborn world superpower. Unfortunately, he may be right.
Sergeant Henson: A famous sergeant and explorer who vanished well over a century ago, he managed to get as far as the Snake Pit before being killed by Anacondas. Ironically, the dead bodies of several Elite Guard FLAK troops lay nearby, clearly more victims of the brutal snakes. Some of his skeletal remains have managed to survive all this time. Though the curse of death has driven his spirit quite insane, he seems to have now passed into a state of nirvana and patiently awaits his last mortal tethers to turn into dust.
