Taking Dragon Slaying to all sorts of FUCK YOU! - Let's Play Dragon Slayer I
trancehime:
Let's just say I got really, really freaking bored yesterday.
Alright, I just decided to put this as a placeholder and for some preparatory things.
Basically, I'm going to play through Dragon Slayer I, for the GameBoy, of NIHON FALCOM fame. This game has been lauded by a few people for being massive amounts of suck, but seriously, there are worse games than this. Plus it is beatable. Just... very tedious to do.
Here's the lowdown on the game itself:
The game has a grand total of TWO LEVELS. Otherwise known as phases. In each phase, you have to collect four crowns, guarded by a dragon boss dude. Said dragon boss dudes are insanely strong and the maps themselves are... "huge," you could say. Actually, no. The maps just loop. The enemies themselves start out hideously strong... That is, until you find the sword. Without it, you are pretty much puny and die in a few hits. Your HP comes from Coins, which give 1000 HP each that you deposit to your home, a little house in the middle of freaking nowhere. Your ATK power can be boosted by red rhombus gems, which give... I think 1500 ATK per gem.
Sound easy? It's not. But I'm going to prove to you that this is beatable >_>
Anyway!
Before any formal update is done, I'd like to ask you about some stuffs.
Who should our little intrepid dragon slayer be? You guys can decide or something.
He'll (or maybe a she) need a name, and perhaps maybe a picture so I can make a portrait out of it. If we don't know who this person is maybe even some background info.
Secondly and lastly, on the agenda, are restrictions.
I will allow you to set two of these restrictions on me as I play:
1. Restriction of FLY, FLASH and JUMP spells.
--> FLY turns you into a bird and you can fly over all obstacles, FLASH paralyzes every single enemy on the entire map, and JUMP... teleports you to the last spot the thief ghost was.
2. Do not move diagonally
--> More important than it sounds. So important you need to gain 30000 EXP before you can even do it.
3. Do not open chests
--> The key can be used infinitely to open chests which can be integral in boosting your power or giving you potions to use spells.
The two which get most popular votes are those I will use, by the by
Get to it guys. Or something

Read that tag, it is male.
Toriroughrynther Yaoiy of Essdikraykale the Slayer of Garden Snakes (and other small reptiles)
(All out of a random name generator, even Yaoiy, I promise)
From a long line of dragon slayers, he is the heir of thousand heroes that breed for the specific purpose of producing an even better hero. He's the less than expected result of a many, many generations of work. Regardless, his ego is larger than life and is a pampered rich boy. Until he got disowned for being defeated handily by a fatal wounded wyvern that was clinging onto the last of its life. He now lives in a small hut in the middle of no where he (secretly) cries himself to sleep at night. After three failed suicide attempts, he slapped some sense into himself and went on quest to slay dragons and regain his non-existent honor that was never there to begin with.
Also, if possible, can you include videos of battles against the dragons?
trancehime:
That's a mouthful. I'll need some sort of nickname for him. I'll decide in the meanwhile.

Tor should work~
And yeah, I'll most likely get a single video of boss. It will take long time maybe?
Hey guys submit more characters so I can have more fun with this.
