//------------------------------// // Commercial Break // Story: EQG: Sword Art Online - Aincrad // by Mindrop //------------------------------// If you are wondering where what the hell a commercial break and why don't I have floor and date info, well this isn't being released on a Tuesday for a reason. The regularly scheduled Tuesday releases are not being interrupted. I'm sorry if you got all excited and are now mad because you saw an unscheduled chapter had been released. I posted a warning at the end of the last chapter for a reason, as well as a Blog. So what is going on? What is a Commercial break? It’s an information log for you to get to know more in depth details. I can only give you so much Character Stats info at the end of the chapter. Along with deeper details into each character like equipment, XP, Health, or Skill completion, some other things will be covered like characters, guilds, and other SAO information. It's a big, big world in Aincrad. It is highly recommended you read it, but it is optional. If you don't, wait till next Tuesday when "Episode 19 - To the Kennel" is released on schedule. If you are still wondering why separate it in a new “chapter”, well I looked at putting this detailed information further below in a chapter, but that was a nightmare for me to read! You already get a good amount of information through the story or at the end of the chapter, but this has even more detail! So it's a reference guide for you to look back on to see the progress of the Girls, Wondercolts, and Aincrad in general. I have to keep up somehow though, so I adapted my charts to fit so I could release it on FimFiction. If you read this, you might catch some details you didn’t catch elsewhere, or I accidentally skipped with the time jumps. Guilds: Each Guild registers their name and a 2-4 shorthand to display. Wondercolts: WCS Holy/Divine Dragon Alliance: DDA – Formerly the Dragon Knights Brigade. Aincrad Liberation Squad: merged with another guild to become “The Army,” technically known as the Aincrad Liberation Force (ALF) They run the first few floors and “protect” the average player. They also run the prison to lock up orange players. Legend Braves: Disbanded after scamming players in the first few months. Fuurinkazan: WWFM – Reference to Sun Tzu’s battle ideology of Wind, Forest, Fire, Mountain. They are led by Klein and with his friends in real life. The six of them are key members of the Assault Team, clearing the game. Knights of the Blood Oath: KOB – The dominant guild since the fiasco and terrible fight on Floor 25. They have kept the Assault Team together and pushing on the front lines. They are led by Commander Heathcliff, with their second in command being Lightning Flash Asuna. Players: Agil: (Solo) Shop owner. Motto – Buy Low Sell Low. Behind the scenes, he makes sure the intermediate players get what they need so they can join the front lines or survive. Kirito: (Solo) Beater (Beta tester & Cheater) who wears all black. One of the top players. Claims many of the Last Attack Bonuses. He is also known as the Black Swordsman. Despite his often rude and aloof attitude, he releases dungeon and labyrinth maps for free and sells his gear to players like Agil who can use it to further the game. He is the only surviving member of, the now disbanded guild, the "Midnight Black Cats." Asuna: (KOB) AKA Lightning Flash. For a while she was solo, but now she is Second in Command of the KOB. She is the undisputed fastest player in the game with her rapier. Argo: (Solo) Information broker with painted whiskers on her face, earning her the nickname: Rat. Former Beta Tester. She sells guides for each floor covering resources, enemies, stats, strategies, and more. Other Information brokers exist, but the Wonderbolts have a rapport with her. Klein: The Leader of WWFM who is trying to look and be as much of a samurai as he can be. He can be goofy and is guilty of hitting on many of the female players. Misc: LAB – Last Attack Bonus - A special item dropped by the boss given to the player who got the last, killing blow in. It is not the only item dropped by a boss. OSS – Out of System Skill – A skill that combines or adjusts a skill that is used in a way the system didn’t plan. Such as using search to be able to predict an incoming attack. Flag Mob– A special, rare monster that is often a low level boss (for that floor). Sometimes they respawn, other times they do not. Aggro – Short for Aggression. It's meant to draw the attention of a boss or monster to yourself so it doesn’t focus on other players. Tanks usually draw the attention and soak up the attacks so the Forwards and Damage Dealers can survive. It also is done to help an injured player recuperate their health when they should have died by a follow up attack. Green Player: A normal Player’s cursor is green. Orange Player: A player who has broken the harassment code or attacked another player to steal their stuff earns an orange cursor as a warning to others. With time, it turns to green, if they have not broken the code more. An orange player can not enter any towns or settlements.
