==Light Bow Combat==
==The World==
Light Bow Combat covers the usage of light bows such as recurve bows, hunting bows and other cavalry bows. These weapons can be fired while on the move, and provide ample mobility, but leave a user very weak to close-range attacks. Each Technique ([[Abilities]]) must be bought with increasing Proficiency costs, 4 Proficiency per Technique. Techniques are purchased from top to bottom. All Abilities ignore armor worn by the target unless specified otherwise. Note, Mundane Abilities of this Category can only be used when the appropriate weapon is being wielded by the Character. It is not possible to duo-wield ranged weapons or a ranged and melee weapon.
MassiveCraft's lore is set in a universe called Aloria, a late medieval universe on the cusp of advancing. It is a world where knights in heavy armor, barbarian wildlings in thick fur, haughty Elven Mages, and caped French musketeers freely mingle. Aloria is a story of great Empires, the marks they have left on history, and the people they leave behind when they collapse. Most information about the world is held on Heritage pages, which explain how Characters from different parts of the world feel about culture, religion, Magic, and one another. All Heritages can be found on the [[Races]] page, but a neat summary of each is below. These summaries include physical form as well as lore information, and are grouped by shared story.
{| class="wikitable"
===Heritages===
|- style="font-weight:bold; text-align:center; background-color:#c0c0c0;"
Aloria's population is broken down into various Heritages, each with their own designs, histories, and themes. For organization, Heritages are broken down into the following lineages, which have common themes.
! Points Invested
! Name
! Type
! Range
! Description
|-
| 4 Points
| Light Shot
| Mundane Technique
| Emote Distance
| Light Shot is the default Arrow attack for a Light Bow Combat user. This simply involves shooting a Light Bow at a target that is not behind cover. Each shot has a 30 second cooldown and if hit, creates the equivalent of a slight cut like a dagger slash would, or a puncture wound in case the enemy is wearing armor. For each shot, the Archer must do a “/dice 0 20”, with any roll above 5 causing a hit to land.
|-
| 8 Points
| Evading Dash
| Mundane Technique
| Emote Distance
| The Archer uses a quick Evading Dash in any direction to reposition within Emote Distance, as long as they can see their intended location and get there in one linear direction without walking into obstacles (such as walls too tall to climb). If obstacles are reasonably climbable for the Archer, this climbing is also included in the dash. While dashing, the Archer is untargetable, and the dash is complete in a matter of seconds. This Technique has a 3 minute cooldown. This Technique cannot be used during a Stun/Disable/Root.
|-
| 12 Points
| Marking Shot
| Mundane Technique
| Emote Distance
| The Archer shoots a Seraphalo Marking Shot, an arrow with a particularly useful luminescent feather. This arrow always hits (unless there is an obstacle between the Archer and the target) and does no damage, but marks the target (not through invisibility) with very obvious luminescent dust for 5 minutes. After being hit, the next Ability or Ranged Weapon Mundane Technique used on the target ignores all hit chance dice rolls and becomes automatic hit, after which the Mark expires. This Technique has a 5 minute cooldown. This Technique is a guaranteed hit.
|-
| 16 Points
| Pinning Flurry
| Mundane Technique
| Emote Distance
| The Archer unleashes a flurry of light shots aimed to pin down the enemy from being able to move, regardless of what armor they are wearing, or whether they are hiding behind an obstacle (with the exception of Ability Shields). This Mundane Technique works like a Channel Ability, meaning it can be upheld for as long as the Archer is not attacked or knocked over, though can at most be performed for up to 5 minutes before they run out of arrows. This Technique never does any damage or cause any knockback, the target is able to do things in their pinned down position (including use Abilities), but simply cannot move from the very point that the Technique started being used from. The Archer can move around at a walking pace, but can only ever target one person, and cannot switch targets, and cannot use other Abilities or attacks during it. This Techniquehas a 30 second cooldown as long as the full 5 minutes was never reached, if it was, this Techniquegoes on a 2 hour cooldown. The moment the Ability channel is interrupted, the target can move. This Technique is a guaranteed hit once commenced.
|-
| 20 Points
| Power Shot
| Mundane Technique
| Emote Distance
| The Archer shoots 8 arrows in very rapid succession against a single target. Perform a dice roll for each shot, “/dice 0 20”. For each dice roll above 10, the arrow hits. If Marking Shot was active, the first shot is a guaranteed hit, but all successive shots still need to be dice rolled. For each shot that hits, the target deceives a deep gash somewhere on their body from which they bleed, but none of these shots can ever maim or cripple a person. This technique cannot be blocked or avoided by any Abilities bar Shielding.  Additionally, for each hit shot, the target is knocked back by 1 Block per amount of hits. This Technique has a 24 hour cooldown.
|}
==Heavy Bow Combat==
Heavy Bow Combat covers the usage of light bows such as Anglian Heavy Bows and other Longbows. These weapons have to be fired from a stationary position and provide very little mobility, though allow the user some close-range defense. Each Technique ([[Abilities]]) must be bought with increasing Proficiency costs, 4 Proficiency per Mundane Technique (all 5 costing 20 in total). Mundane Techniques are purchased from top to bottom. All Techniques ignore armor worn by the target unless specified otherwise. Note, Mundane Techniques of this Category can only be used when the appropriate weapon is being wielded by the Character. It is not possible to duo-wield ranged weapons or a ranged and melee weapon.

|-
| 4 Points
| Heavy Shot
| Mundane Technique
| Emote Distance
| Heavy Shot is the default Arrow attack for a Heavy Bow Combat user. This simply involves shooting a Heavy Bow at a target that is not behind cover. Each shot has a 1 minute cooldown and if hit, creates the equivalent of a deep gash like a sword hit would, or a piercing wound in case the enemy is wearing armor. For each shot, the Archer must do a “/dice 0 20”, with any roll above 5 causing a hit to land.
|-
| 8 Points
| Knocking Shot
| Mundane Technique
| Emote Distance
| The Archer shoots a heavy pound arrow, an arrow with a lot of weight and force behind it, but more kinetic than piercing damage. This shot damages about as much as a stab of a dagger does, but forces the target to be knocked back by 6 blocks into the opposite direction of the Archer, or until they hit a solid object, which then causes blunt damage but does not Stun them. This Technique has a 3 minute cooldown. This Technique is a guaranteed hit.
|-
| 12 Points
| Marking Shot
| Mundane Technique
| Emote Distance
| The Archer shoots a Seraphalo Marking Shot, an arrow with a particularly useful luminescent feather. This arrow always hits (unless there is an obstacle between the Archer and the target) and does no damage, but marks the target (not through invisibility) with very obvious luminescent dust for 5 minutes. After being hit, the next Ability or Ranged Weapon Mundane Technique used on the target ignores all hit chance dice rolls and becomes automatic hit, after which the Mark expires. This Technique has a 5 minute cooldown. This Technique is a guaranteed hit.
|-
| 16 Points
| Bow Slam
| Mundane Technique
| 3 Blocks
| Bow Slam allows the Archer to slash their heavy bow in a semi circle in front of them (a 180 degree angle) followed by a ground slam. Anyone within 3 blocks of the Archer’s front is knocked back 5 blocks and falls over, but receives no damage. This Technique has a 5 minute cooldown, and can only be used if at least 1 person is within 3 Blocks Range.
|-
| 20 Points
| Power Shot
| Mundane Technique
| Announce Emote
| The Archer kneels, producing a heavy power shot. This Technique requires both calculating and concentration to pull and deliver on mark, thus requiring a full minute to remain stationary and charge. When the charge is complete, the Archer may release at the target, as long as the target is not behind cover. If they are, the Archer may hold this position however long until they leave cover, or until they get knocked over. If the Archer is interrupted, charge will have to re-commence. This arrow is guaranteed to hit, and cannot be blocked or avoided by any Abilities bar Shielding. The Archer must do a “/dice 1 5”, where 1 means the left arm, 2 means the right arm, 3 means the left leg, 4 means the right leg, and 5 means the face. Whatever part of the body this arrow hits, is paralyzed for 1 hour, and if the face is hit, the player must use “/trait add Blindness” for 1 hour that can only be removed by Mundane or Ability Healing. This Technique does not cause maims. This Technique has a 24 hour cooldown.

==Crossbow Combat==
[[File:Ailorrace.png|frameless|20px]] '''Cerkind Heritages''' are standard humanoids.
Crossbow Combat covers the usage of light bows such as light crossbows and heavy crossbows. These weapons have to be fired from a stationary position and provide little mobility, but have a lot of utility functions. Each Technique ([[Abilities]]) must be bought with increasing Proficiency costs, 4 Proficiency per Technique. Techniques are purchased from top to bottom. All Abilities ignore armor worn by the target unless specified otherwise. Note, Mundane Abilities of this Category can only be used when the appropriate weapon is being wielded by the Character. It is not possible to duo-wield ranged weapons or a ranged and melee weapon.
*Ailor are standard humans, and the average of all Heritages.

*Sihndar are frugal dark elves fighting against Demons.
| Brittle Shot is the default Arrow attack for a CrossBow Combat user. This simply involves shooting a Crossbow at a target that is not behind cover. Each shot has to specifically be aimed at a piece of armor, as Brittle Shots do not cause much damage, but instead disable pieces of armor on a target. For each shot, the Archer must do a “/dice 0 20”, with any roll above 5 causing a hit to land. For each landed hit, a piece of armor is disabled (which must always be either an entire left arm, right arm, left leg, right leg, chest, or head piece), while doing minimal brute damage and causing some bruises. This Technique has a 1 minute cooldown, and does not break Artifacts or Mythics. The effect applies the same to Ability Created Armor, unless the Ability armor has a per-hit breaking rule set, in which case it follows that instead.

*Maraya are fae- and tiefling-like vault-dwellers from a technologically advanced past.
| The Archer shoots a Netbolt at a target, causing an exploding canister to throw a net out at the target, which if the target is not behind some form of cover, causes them to be Rooted. In order to determine hit, do a “/dice 1 20”, with any roll above 5 meaning the shot lands. The target is netted for 1 minute, during which they cannot move or use Abilities (unless that Ability gives immunity to Roots or allows them to free themselves from a Root), but can start freeing themselves. If the target is not attacked or knocked out, they can be freed by themselves after the 1 minute is over. If another person helps them, the netting only works for 20 seconds. If the target is attacked while being netted, the first attack instantly breaks the net, but is guaranteed to hit as the netted target cannot defend themselves. This Techniquehas a 24 hour cooldown.

| This Technique allows the Archer to knock down a Mundane Gate or Ability Wall (such as Magewall). The Archer is immobilized, taking 4 separate strategic shots (each separated by 30 seconds for a total of 2 minutes) after which they activate a specialized steamtek winch that pulls both a Purestone core as well as force on all anchor shots. After the emote pulling the winch into action, whatever metal/wooden gate or Ability wall/doorway it was aimed at is destroyed. This Technique can be used twice per day but has no cooldown. The Archer must also be standing within 10 Blocks of whatever they are shooting at, and within clear line of sight.
*Yanar are plan people with an affinity for nature.

*Orion are star-people from the skies curious about the world.
| 20 Points
*Mystech are a group of Spirits, Robots, and Homunculi
| Percussion Shot
 
| Mundane Technique
==Extra Reading==
| Announce Emote
===Magic===
| This Technique causes the Archer to shoot an explosive Percussion Shot After a quick loading, the shot is fired, is a guaranteed hit, and causes a fire-less explosion at the target person. This technique cannot be blocked or avoided by any Abilities bar Shielding. Any person within 10 blocks of this person is knocked to the ground with shrapnel cuts on any exposed skin. The target themselves are knocked to the ground with one limb of their choice broken as well as cuts and slices all over their body. After Percussion Shot is fired, the Crossbow of the Archer becomes defunct due to the heavy firing mechanism breaking during this shot. This prevents further use of Crossbow Mundane Techniques for 12 hours.  
Magic is strongly woven into the history of Aloria as both an uplifting and dangerous force that has started as many civilizations as it has ended them. Different Heritages, Cultures, and Religions have very strong opinions about Magic and its use that can often become polarizing. This section will not go into the nuances of Magic in detail. However, it's a generally good rule of thumb that people and civilizations who have had bad experiences with Magical enemies like Vampires and Demons are more likely to be suspicious of even normal Mages who aren't hurting anybody, while the more familiar a Culture is with Magic, the less likely it is they fear it. Certain Religions impose that only their type of Magic is valid, such as Draconism that only favors Magic from the Dragons. More information about this can be found on Heritage, Culture and Religion pages, as well as the [[Magic]] page.

===Affinities and Afflictions===
Besides Heritages, '''Affinities and Afflictions''' can be optional reading for designing a Character in the world of Aloria. These are unique conditions a Character can have that lock them into a certain design niche.
* The [[Arkenborn]] Affinity is for Characters born as the children of the Arken, some of the world's most powerful Demons, worshiped as Gods in some religions. Arkenborn are powerful but mentally unstable and caustic Mages.
* The [[Godborn]] Affinity is for Characters born as children of the Gods, entities venerated by millions of faithful. Godborn follow the story and archetype of their Godly parents, in search of their divine purpose.
* The [[Archon]] Affinity is for Characters who swear fealty to the Dragons, ancient architects of the world and the living, and pledge to join their war against the Demonic and otherworldly as foot soldiers, spies, or strategists.
* The [[Marken]] Affinity is the Alorian word for Werewolves who can lose control over themselves and change forms at strong emotions or the turning of the moon.
* The [[Vampire]] Affliction is as it says, a famed and feared curse that lurks in the corner of every realm, promising sweet gifts of immortality and power at the cost of one's soul.
* The [[Mortisphage]] Affliction is a lesser understood curse sowed by the Dead Gods that lends those struck with it the desire to feed on the memories of others for their fell masters.
* The [[Undead]] Affliction is a blanket term for those who died and came back to life, considered sacred warriors in some religions and accursed to be slain in others.
 
===The Setting===
The actual Roleplay is set in the city of Regalia, the capital of the Regalian Empire. As the Imperial capital, it is host to all walks of society, and generally speaking any concept available works (though more extreme options, like being a Vampire or Undead, might draw hostility and limit Roleplay options unless the player is careful about disguising). Regalia is divided into four areas: the Town, Crookback, the Sewers, and Gloomrot. Most Roleplay happens in the Town proper, where businesses open and people gather. Crossing the bridge into Crookback takes the Character into a space that is more open to the Afflicted, heavily Mutated, and the obviously very Magical, while following the stairs down into the Sewers brings them into contact with the more utterly illegal, such anti-state agents and violent criminals, who need a place to hide. Gloomrot is the dark, shadowy forest in the countryside of Regalia dotted with a few little cottages and taverns, where mysterious creatures lurk and small parties of travelers can frequently be found.

Welcome to MassiveCraft! This is the New Roleplayers' Guide. Do not be afraid to ask questions in the Discord. Other players or staff members should be able to help clear up any confusion.

The World

MassiveCraft's lore is set in a universe called Aloria, a late medieval universe on the cusp of advancing. It is a world where knights in heavy armor, barbarian wildlings in thick fur, haughty Elven Mages, and caped French musketeers freely mingle. Aloria is a story of great Empires, the marks they have left on history, and the people they leave behind when they collapse. Most information about the world is held on Heritage pages, which explain how Characters from different parts of the world feel about culture, religion, Magic, and one another. All Heritages can be found on the Races page, but a neat summary of each is below. These summaries include physical form as well as lore information, and are grouped by shared story.

Heritages

Aloria's population is broken down into various Heritages, each with their own designs, histories, and themes. For organization, Heritages are broken down into the following lineages, which have common themes.

Cerkind Heritages are standard humanoids.

  • Ailor are standard humans, and the average of all Heritages.
  • Skyborn are technology people focused on innovation.

  • Mystech are a group of Spirits, Robots, and Homunculi

Extra Reading

Magic

Magic is strongly woven into the history of Aloria as both an uplifting and dangerous force that has started as many civilizations as it has ended them. Different Heritages, Cultures, and Religions have very strong opinions about Magic and its use that can often become polarizing. This section will not go into the nuances of Magic in detail. However, it's a generally good rule of thumb that people and civilizations who have had bad experiences with Magical enemies like Vampires and Demons are more likely to be suspicious of even normal Mages who aren't hurting anybody, while the more familiar a Culture is with Magic, the less likely it is they fear it. Certain Religions impose that only their type of Magic is valid, such as Draconism that only favors Magic from the Dragons. More information about this can be found on Heritage, Culture and Religion pages, as well as the Magic page.

Affinities and Afflictions

Besides Heritages, Affinities and Afflictions can be optional reading for designing a Character in the world of Aloria. These are unique conditions a Character can have that lock them into a certain design niche.

  • The Arkenborn Affinity is for Characters born as the children of the Arken, some of the world's most powerful Demons, worshiped as Gods in some religions. Arkenborn are powerful but mentally unstable and caustic Mages.
  • The Godborn Affinity is for Characters born as children of the Gods, entities venerated by millions of faithful. Godborn follow the story and archetype of their Godly parents, in search of their divine purpose.
  • The Archon Affinity is for Characters who swear fealty to the Dragons, ancient architects of the world and the living, and pledge to join their war against the Demonic and otherworldly as foot soldiers, spies, or strategists.
  • The Marken Affinity is the Alorian word for Werewolves who can lose control over themselves and change forms at strong emotions or the turning of the moon.
  • The Vampire Affliction is as it says, a famed and feared curse that lurks in the corner of every realm, promising sweet gifts of immortality and power at the cost of one's soul.
  • The Mortisphage Affliction is a lesser understood curse sowed by the Dead Gods that lends those struck with it the desire to feed on the memories of others for their fell masters.
  • The Undead Affliction is a blanket term for those who died and came back to life, considered sacred warriors in some religions and accursed to be slain in others.

The Setting

The actual Roleplay is set in the city of Regalia, the capital of the Regalian Empire. As the Imperial capital, it is host to all walks of society, and generally speaking any concept available works (though more extreme options, like being a Vampire or Undead, might draw hostility and limit Roleplay options unless the player is careful about disguising). Regalia is divided into four areas: the Town, Crookback, the Sewers, and Gloomrot. Most Roleplay happens in the Town proper, where businesses open and people gather. Crossing the bridge into Crookback takes the Character into a space that is more open to the Afflicted, heavily Mutated, and the obviously very Magical, while following the stairs down into the Sewers brings them into contact with the more utterly illegal, such anti-state agents and violent criminals, who need a place to hide. Gloomrot is the dark, shadowy forest in the countryside of Regalia dotted with a few little cottages and taverns, where mysterious creatures lurk and small parties of travelers can frequently be found.
