Ren had started grinding the goblin dogs in the field along other adventurers, she saw there was clearly betatester there who was alchemist who did not fight the dogs....but instead sold super cheap healing potions (and making no doubt dirty amounts profit in doing so).<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Ren's eyes only</div><div class="spoiler_body">You can buy potions also. They cure 1d8+1 HP and they cost 20gp each (the alchemist is quiet how he can afford sell 50gp potions with -60% discount). He had 20 of them on sale.<br/></div></div><br/>While the other party met with summoner and they made way to local temple where experienced priestess of Pelor (5th level NPC) offered her healing services on decent sum. A 10gp per caster needed for spell what they needed cast (and she offered up to 3th level spells). When told they needed diseases cured the asked payment up front, as the process is not guaranteed to work but she can redo it if needed.<br/><br/>So after paying her 30gp for spell cast she goth both Iona and Jones cured from their disease. Then while group explored and planned for next quest, suddenly there is sound of loud thunderstorm! Skies started darken and take dark crimson hued tone and it appeared as if there was huge gigantic skull shaped from dark stormy clouds themselves! Everything was in shaded crimson in color in this eery feeling light.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Open and click for sound effect</div><div class="spoiler_body">Lighting Strike and Thunder Sound Effect (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_39wbGIJ_I#)<br/></div></div><br/>Then creepy music starts to play and everyone can hear it......all betatesters know that normally there is no combat or audio music but when it does.....a major shit is going to happen.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Creepy music sound track, adviced to be played same time with thunderstorm sound</div><div class="spoiler_body">Creepy Video Game Music 23: Giygas Battle. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95J3f4hjMTA#)<br/></div></div><br/>Then all feel tingling sensation....and then all players become teleported into the massive market square of Goldhawk capital. Then there is glimmering in the air and a cloaked femine figure (http://images.khinsider.com/Kingdom%20Hearts%20Birth%20by%20Sleep/Renders/Main%20Characters/Character05%20-%20Mysterious%20Figure01.png) appears in above market square. The music slowly fades away and so does sound of the thunderstorm but the skies remained dark casted while the figure observed the crowd for moment.<br/><br/>Then she spoke;<strong>"Congratulations, you are the first generation of players who are now experiencing the NerveGear technology fully. Some betatesters among you knew what experience is alike but it was in controlled testing environment. But this is complete game experience and so I hope you are satisfied with it. I am GM Mysleena, or otherwise known as Janea Tholson, the head programmer of this game and also developer and head governor of Wizard of the Coast franchise."</strong><br/><br/>There was loud cheering from the crowd but the figure seemed not notice it at all and after short break she continued;<strong>"However, when you see this event I have already died. I was diagnosed a lethal case of brain tumor and was given two or three years to live. The tumor had already grown to point where surgery had likely chance kill me, or make me vegetable. It took two years of that remaining life to create and perfect this game with you betatesters, and I thank you all for sharing my final gaming experience with you. So if I was not dead during opening of this game, I preferred not die slowly rotting death in hospital so I have taken my life in this same day painless possible fashion."</strong><br/><br/>A silence sets over the crowd hearing the news and some pondered already what impact it would have in game or in wizard of the coast, then figure continued speak;<strong>"My final will is something what involves all of you. Betatesters got up to 10th or twelve level in the game, but beyond that is mystery for them. So they never saw the end game content, it was top secret project held only by testers of the company and only I designed the final encounter. To beat Dungeons and Dragons Online you need defeat a unidentified end game boss. He or She will be obvious once you encounter it. Now, I testament whole wizard of the coast company stock shares and ability function as head governor, to those gamers who face the final boss and defeat it. Including all my material wealth which I had not already testament for gaming or charities. Governing for four hundred million dollars in total worth at present time."</strong><br/><br/>A cheer is heard in the crowd but suddenly robed figure raised gloved hand up and said;<strong>"However there is catch to this....as since start of the game as some of you may have noticed that your unable to log out."</strong>Some players opened menu screens and yelled what she said is true and worry starts to set over the crowd. Figure continues speak;<strong>"The problem is not because of bug....it was because I purposefully created script code to delete the sequence from the game since servers were started. Also changing all passwords and removing GM rights from all expect central AI which functions as GM. So no one inside nor outside the game can edit or program the game."</strong><br/><br/>Folks started panic up and figure continued speak like figure of their coming doom;<strong>"In addition to this respawn points, all of them, had been removed. You can still die, but instead going respawn point you will be logged out from the game after one minute had passed since you reached past -9 HP condition."</strong><br/><br/><strong>But, catch is that every NerveGear helm has now received scripted new commands. If you <em>any</em> reason log out from the game or someone shuts down the servers or tries tamper with it until intrusion alarm goes off....all your living bodies brains get lethal electric circuit shock which will fry your brains. Other words, if you die in the game, you die for <em>real</em>. Only way for everyone get free from the game, is when someone beats the final boss and game then undergoes automatic reset."</strong><br/><br/>In the crowd several people started cry, shout at the figure and some even crumbled and knelt in the ground staring empty while others look shocked and stunned. The figure continues speak even if growingly starts to be harder to hear her but her voice is clear and booming until the end;<strong>"So your now in <em>real</em> adventure gamers. With real losses and gains to those who venture forth! This is my parting gift to you all! Hospitals and authorities had been informed of this change and everyone who bought the game and NerveGear have their addressed publishes so your bodies can be retrieved and maintained until someone beats the game....or you die. Have fun and good luck you all!"</strong>With that the figure faded but there was already chaos in the market, the players who were betatesters were chased down by angry mobs and cornered and beaten to seeking answers regarding this 'bull shit'. Thankfully in towns nobody can die but beatting can still hurt and soon NPC guards start to spawn and attempt return order to chaotic storm of emotionally distressed players who realize they are in death trap!<br/><br/>However few figures who were not surface obviously betatesters, or were smarter from most, slipped from market through alleys and proceed to the questing zones and start grind which will decide fate of 100,000 players.<br/><br/>Moshi and Tigara were targeted also, a halfling female grabs on Tigara's leg and with tears in her eyes she shouts; "Tell me this is not true! I have kids to feed! I am single mother! This is just a joke right? RIGHT?!" Moshi other hand got gripped by half-orc man who growled; "Spill it out! Tell me how beat this game! You must know; your betatester right? They got fancy gifts and I am damn sure I saw no fox woman as available race!"
