Guide to the Netherworld!

Almaz' Guide to the Netherworld!


Introduction

Welcome to the Netherworld! Netherworld Academy, not to be confused with Netherworld Academy Evil Institute though.

It is unfortunate you now have a huge debt, it's also unfair, but because this is the Netherworld there's not much you can do about it but try and pay it off, or complete the story but that might take a while. You can also try and level up and defeat the Overlord Dean, but that will probably be harder than it's worth since I'm sure he's over 100 even without stronger enemy bills passed.

What is this place?

This is a Netherworld. A Netherworld is a place where demons live. Though, these are probably not the sort of demons you know, if they are the sort of demons you do know you probably already know what's going on or the mechanics feel familiar enough to figure it out. For everyone else, the Netherworld is a place that is usually connected to a Human world. I think anyway. I only really know my world and my worlds Netherworld. But I do know there are multiple Netherworlds connected together!

oh yeah.

So what is the dimensional guide thing?

The dimensional guide is the person who can use the dimensional transport! It sends you to different parts of the Netherworld. I think it's also how they got us all here. It's hard to use so you can't go anywhere without someone to use it. Since it's an NPC thing always, don't count on learning how. But you can probably ask them to go to various local places, and maybe meet new people if you pass the right bills.

What is the point of "bills"?

Bills are passed by the Student Council, or senate or whatever they're called here.... You can get lots of stuff through them. Like you can get more expensive items from the store, or you can get more people to help you out in battles, you can get stronger enemies or access to different locations. Pretty much anything you might want.

They keep denying me! How can I get anything if they hate me so much?

Well... you can always try again, level up more, level up your items and see if they like you more later? Try getting more people to help you out too. Though you can force a bill... I wouldn't recommend it. It just seems like you're being a sore loser. Ah... but if it's really really important there is a way to do it....

What are you talking about get more levels?

Go fight enemies till your stats are increased and your level is higher.


They look like that!

You never did say much about demons themselves.

They're not that different from humans, actually they're a lot less complicated. They pride themselves on being "evil" but it's not really an evil evil, it's sort of like being bad but not horrible.... I guess it's like always being tundere?

So where do I go level anyway? And what about making my items stronger?

You could talk to the dimensional guide to go somewhere, but to make your items stronger you need to talk to the person who manages the Item World, choose the item to go inside and then... fight your way through.


It looks like this, oh and sometimes there's pirates. Though I guess that's not technically the right place... Oh well looks close enough.

Conclusion

Uh... well if there's any questions I'll try and answer them! I've never tried to make a guide before.

(OOC: If you think it needs a cut just tell me and I'll put it behind one! I wasn't sure if i should or not and decided to try it uncut first.)

It was more a horde of someones, but yes.

Well, Ifurita and myself caused some of the damage while we chased them off.
notjustinthemirror: (Fascinating)

I have a hunch we're not talking about the same thing.
mooned_hime: (lolwut)

[personal profile] mooned_hime 2012-10-19 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course not. Why would I do something like that?
mooned_hime: (Eating pocky in a dignified manner.)

If you must know the details, they did appear to be trying to enact something similar to the caveman ideal of romance.

Isn't it?

I find myself somewhat wishing that had been a viable tactic back in my world. It certainly would have been more discouraging to the suitors there, but I'm sure it would have caused other complications.

What happens if you go in a doujin? Do beating up the demons in there alter the story?

[Malga looks serious business. Albeit twinkling eye serious business.]
notjustinthemirror: (Hello Ethan)

Let's start over.

What are you talking about, and why are there pirates?
mooned_hime: (Eating pocky in a dignified manner.)

True enough. Still, it did get rather tiresome.

Is it +10 in shininess? Yuri content? Maybe I can make collector's editions that way!
notjustinthemirror: (Oh that's amusing)

[personal profile] notjustinthemirror 2012-10-19 10:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[The amount of confused he is knows no bounds.]

Alright. Let's start there.

So say I have an item. Like this crowbar here.

[The one he's now brandishing with the suspicious looking red stains all over it.]

I'm supposed to somehow go inside this and fight things. With the thing I'm inside of.

And this makes sense how?

[personal profile] mangohexen 2012-10-19 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I suppose it'll be worth something then!
