Notail Simulator Beta (4/4)

Fortuna rolls a 20 sided die. A 14 is rolled.

You decide to start training with your knife. You look for other notails who have knifes and find what you assumed was a knife club. You run over yelling, "I got a knife too!!!! Can I join you guys? =3"

It wasn't a knife club, but a group of S-classes. The S-classes snicker at you and they treat you like a cute pet monkey trying to imitate people, but this doesn't bother you. Because you've been hanging out with your best friend you admittedly become a bit of a [pushover]. Even though they're stuck up and act like they're much better than you, you do learn some valuable lessons about how just stabbing people isn't enough, you need to know where to stab for maximum damage. These lessons make you slightly stronger!

While traveling around with the S-classes you watch them bandage up kids who get hurt to the best of their child abilities. You ask if you can help too and they laugh and say you're just an E-class, you're no good at such complex tasks as wrapping bandages around people. You try to show them that they're wrong and......

You end up wrapping it around yourself instead. Woops. While you may have failed at learning first aid, at least you are on friendly terms with S-classes now, even if it's because they consider you a bit of a joke.

Being an E-class you find yourself exploring every nook and cranny in the whole town. One day you happen to stumble upon the entrance to the food storage. You start looting small packages of food, thus you get to eat more than the other kids without having to hunt for the extra food yourself. Not only are you stronger but you're a little taller than your fellow 4 and a half year olds, and by the time you hit 5 you'll be as tall as a 6 year old. If you keep this up you'll be a [tall] notail!

While being unable to sleep one day you wondered out of your room to find the midnight N-class gathering. A little known fact was that most N-classes had a strange monthly sleep cycle. While most notails slept at the same time and woke up at the same time every day, N-classes sleep cycles slowly shift over the course of a whole month until it completely cycles a whole 24 hours so their meetings and readings shift with it.

You join their meeting for tonight, the N-classes really don't care. As they recite stories from the book of the limbo by memory some of them have to stop, as they suddenly appear to be in pain. You learn that the N-class that lives in the church has given each N-class child shock bands. If they mess up reciting a passage it shocks them. This comes off as cruel to you.....

But the older N-classes seem to be really proud of their shockbands, saying things like pain only makes them stronger and less prone to the evils of the gods. They say that they're the only village in the whole world that's doing shock bands so that'll mean they'll be better and less blessed than any other group of notails from the other villages.

The younger ones in the group doesn't seem to believe it, but as the age goes up, they agree more and more. They've been living with it for so long that now it's a device of honor.

You're still not sure what you think, but you're not an N-class and if the lady of the church is ok with it....then.....it must be ok. Adults know what's best. Time to time you visit the N-classes and watch them recite their stories. You gain an understanding of the gods.

You soon hit 5 years old, your best friend is now 7 and you two are the best of friends now. You feel luckier with your friend around. He drags you around a lot but you've become very used to it. You end up traveling father from the village than a notail of your age should be due to the dragging. At first you're scared, but then you get used to it, becoming [adventurous] and willingly sneaking out past the limits to investigate things with your friend. Both of you are naturally [curious], he moreso than you. He dearly wants to know about the world outside of the village.

Over time you come to learn that he's an F-class, and is highly determined to be the best at his job. All the adults tell him that he's better off dead if he's not good at a job, and he doesn't want to be dead! He doesn't want you to die either so he's going to make sure you're the best as well.

Your caretakers have been noticing you've been doing amazingly for your age. You utterly stick out for your dedication and your exploration. Many kids in your class that are your age are still scare of traveling to another part of the village alone, much less outside of it, meanwhile your caretakers basically have to drag you back inside.

They are a little worried about your intelligence currently. Notails should be growing their intelligence and reasoning skills quite quickly, but instead you take much longer to understand concepts taught in the few required classes and you sometimes lose time on your quests because you have a hard time understanding the instructions, but your caretakers are sure that you're just a little slower on the uptake and will catch up at your own rate.

What they're really worried about is that you're a rather lone wolf of an E-class. From a young age E-classes gather in groups, and while you being a lone wolf has allowed you to highthen your skills, E-classes grouping together is extremely important. Hopefully you're not a Lone-E that wasn't labeled as such.

While E-classes aren't taken to start official swarming parties until they're 7, your caretaker drags you out of bed one day and takes out you to the edge of the village where the older kids are getting ready for today's swarm quest. Your caretaker even brings your friend along, hoping that him, being the more active and talkative one will drag you into situations where you form much needed bonds with other classes.


You look at the swarms before you. There are 3 major swarms and one smaller swarm. Notails circle the swarms to investigate which one they want to join like birds attempting to find just the right flock.

"I never swarmed before! This is going to be fun! You get to pick which swarm we join. You're the E-class so this should come naturally to you. =3" your friend says as he pushes you forward, forcing you to join the circling notails. Everyone is at least two years older than you.

The first swarm is lead by an H-class, and is made of about 25% E-classes, 50% H-classes, and 25% of other classes. Looks like it's a rather relaxed swarm, with the leader holding up a poster he made himself of edible plants and toxic ones. Looks like they're plant collecting today.

The 2nd swarm is mostly made of 8 and 9 year olds. Many of them have capture creatures but there are a few capture creature less 7 year olds in there. It's almost fully made of E-classes but there are a few other classes tossed in. From the looks of all the chanting it looks like they're hyping themselves up to go on a little trek to make spears, and then hunt a giant land bird they were told had appeared just outside of the village.

The 3rd large swarm was made of kids, about half of them E-classes, who appeared to be going out of the village for a little bit to learn how to make cages and attempt to catch a few things. A lot of them were hoping to catch a cool creature to toss into a creature pit to watch them duke it out for survival. Such activities were common notail hobbies.

The last and smallest swarm was just made of E-classes and it was hard to tell what they were up to. They were whispering to each other.

Which swarm will you be joining today?
