The above is a blank Monster Template. It will allow one to fill in any needed information about a monster you want. If you wish to suggest or make a monster please use this template and post it in the Suggestions forum. Below is an example of a Monster.

You may notice something different about the monsters. They don't have all the stats a PC would have. This is for simplicity and organization. Instead we figure out what their Dodge (Speed + Agility)/2 is and their Accuracy (Varies) is. Accuracy will apply for all aspects, regardless of what type of attack they are using.

Monsters will not have an Intelligence, Endurance or Spirit stat. Instead they will have many unique abilities and resistances PCs normally couldn't have.

As you noticed, it is good to put an image of the monster there as well as fill in the information as you please. You don't need to worry about totaling up their stats to their HP. Monsters work differently. So just have fun making it (and don't make it too hax. We do need strong monsters, just nothing like Emerald, Ruby or Omega Weapon).

Here is a chart of symbols you can use for your monsters.

  • The blue represents unique attacks the monster can do that cannot be learned by Enemy Skill.

  • The Green represents Magic Materia that the Monster can use attacks from (Without needing the Materia)

  • The Yellow represents Command Materia that the monster can use attacks from (Without needing the Materia)

  • The red represents unique attacks the monster can do that CAN be learned by enemy skill.
With this said, when a monster has a unique attack (Either red or blue) you must put a short description and Effect beneath the image.

EX:

Double Helix- A back flip set up so both front and hind legs hit the target. Attacks twice in one move (For humans it would be one leg hitting after the other).

If it is an Enemy Skill learnable technique, it will simply be added to roster of the Materia.

(Enemy Skill system is still under works. Be paitent)

Now, with that bit out of the way. There are a few things I need to cover:

  • You are not forced to fight monsters. It's an option.
  • If you are hunting out a specific monster (Enemy Skill, Job, Mission, etc.) It takes at LEAST 10 paragraphs to find it.
  • The monster will ONLY appear in the area it lists on it. Some may appear in more than one area.
  • Monsters are not fodder. If you beat a monster in your thread you normally couldn't, it will be treated as God-Modding.

"How do I know if I couldn't beat the monster?" Well, that's simple. If the monster had like, 1,000 HP and you only had 150... there's a 90% chance you will lose against that monster. Just compare the stats. It is NOT against the rules to beat monsters stronger than you. But they will be rp'd as that, stronger than you.

If this becomes a problem with any member, they will only be allowed to fight monsters (Outside of Sagas, Epics and other events) that have a lower HP total than they do.

If you have any questions feel free to ask in the Questions forum.
