d0ttmAniac

As Dot listened in on this players words, hearing what he had to say about the quest and seeing how it should be completed, he could nod and sigh lightly under his metal helm as he hated quests like this, he was more or less a combat man. But if a quest like this could get him the ability to make items he would be better off doing this, but what struck him was what profession he should go with, seeing how he would only need armor and weapons when he needed them. Once getting them he would have no use to do so, and visa versa if he was to consider other players, so a blacksmith and armorer were out of the question, as well as a trinket maker, his final thought was consumables. "Alright, so.. let's see here." "Perhaps... an Apothecarian, or Potion Maker." He retorted out to the figure before him, but as quickly as he stated this, the individual threw him for a loop about the cursor above his head, and quickly as he stated it Dot pointed above his own head. "No, I mean a emerald like diamond above your head, right about here." "I guess that signifies you're a player... or good, not sure." Dot mentioned before letting his arm fall limp, suddenly realizing the entire time that he and this figure were talking, he hadn't given out his name, or rather his handle. "By the way, I'm d0ttmAniac, but call me Dot, please, Dots shorter and easier to remember." He stated with ah short chuckle, his voice sound older due to the helm muffling his voice slightly and making it sound like he was talking into a Pringles can.

All Dot could do was nod at the mans request, and from many of his questions that the young lad seemed to had, and with that he wandered out of Zakariah shop and began trotting towards the gate exit, stopping only momentarily to go into his inventory and equip any items he forgot. When he went to look he saw a tab of four items, each with a name of "Set" on them, and his index finger hovering over each description, the one that caught his eye was the <<Set C Tank Package>>. He took a liking to what it had, and with I'm picking it, his inventory changed, his weapon was a lance and his second item was a armor which was Rare, upon equipping it he was surprised by what he had, it was a full suit of silver like armor. "Cool." He stated as then he began looking at the other items, happy with what he got and no proceeding towards the location that he was described to go to, the fields outside of the beginning town. The luscious green grass was the first thing that caught his gaze through the "V" shaped slits in his helm and made him stand there for a few moments at the beauty of it all. But as soon as he entered the gorgeous plain was as quickly his mental state snapped back to the task at hand, with him gripping his lance with a firm grip, Dot quickly began trotting along the crisp blades of emerald beneath his greaves to search out his materials.

When the glimmering sunlight crept over him, making the light shine off his armor, the glint of it caused him to raise a hand to block it, annoyed by the blinding light he stood up only to hear a voice coming towards him, which was rather strange. "Is he a NPC, or a Player?" "Could he be with my quest?" "I'll have to ask him." Dot retorted quietly to himself in his mind as the figure asked him if he needed any help, which caused him to speak out towards the rather helpful being. "Um yeah, I'm kind of at a loss with this mission called Earning a Living." " Without a traditional HUD element like a compass I can't seem to find how to further it." He stated, being rather uneasy with talking as he avoided with eye contact, the seventy-two inch fellow, looking at the fellow before him as he looked closer at the being before him noticing a green rotating diamond above their head. "What in Tartarus's name is that above your head?" "I've noticed a few others with it, but it still is unusual." Stating out while being uneasy with talking, his stance showed that of a nervous individual as he wasn't standing confident at all, but showed he was doing it in a subtle manner that most wouldn't realize instantly.

The town of beginnings, a simple place, quaint and full of adventure, even if most of the adventure was outside of the walls or within the already cleared dungeon, a scorn of people already in the higher floor while those who wish to live a humble and peaceful life on the starting floor. However, despite this sensation of being alone and trapped made many docile and rather dull, not all wished to be a trapped bird inside a cage. The glimmering eyes of one such player gleamed through the "V" shaped slits in their helm, the glimmering silver armor of the individual was only shunned down by the rather bland lance they had resting upon their shoulders, one arm wrapped around the half of it while creaking of their steel shell filled the air. The quiet tone they held as the faint echo of their breathe dwelled out from the metal prison, the shimmer of blue glinting from the inside of the metallic helm as the individual looked upon yonder at anyone that would assist him. He had accepted a quest from the bulletin board for a quest known as <<Earning a Living>>, but he had little information to go by as he held the flyer in his hand, a simple piece of parchment with the words printed on it; "Only you can make your future great!"; the being at question had no clue what that meant. All he knew was, it entailed some kind of objective, but without a traditional HUD like in most games he made, no compass and having to open up a map to find your way, he was out of his element here.

As <<d0ttmAniac stood there in the streets of Aincrad, the cobblestone streets clattering with many people, whether human or NPC alike swooned to his ears, making them slightly ach while the older fellow gave the young azure eyed male a smile before turning about, placing the bottle into a nap sack on his waist and waved to him, the door of his shop opening up and revealing some mysteries towards the curious player. "Well, time isn't making me younger, come right on in young man." And with that statement rising from the males lips he slowly approached the door, upon stepping into the building did Dots eyes meet many elixirs, the sight of many glittering bottles filled to the brim with liquids of various colors, shades and tones, it was almost like he was in a fantasy novel, a elderly man requesting the aid of a commoner, just before declaring him to be the mentors assistant. However Dot knew better as he looked about, seeing the old man sit behind his desk which was just behind the counter of the store, but before he could even remark about anything the gruff looking individual spoke out towards him, his kind and gentle voice rang out, having a sort of British accent to them while being also somewhat French. 

Then names Zakariah." "What may your name be lad?" Dot was rather unsure of where to go with this now, should he used his own name, his real one or go with his handle, either way this Zakariah wouldn't know the difference between his real name or the handle, so he decided to just give him something. "It's... Dot, just call me Dot." He stated with a somewhat confident tone as his darling sapphire orbs danced about while focusing on each of the glimmering bottles of liquids, the potions, salves, poisons and the crystals were distracting his mind, anything that was shiny caught his attention and if it had physics to it, even better. "Marveling at my collection are we now?" "Well, funny that you are soo intrigued by them Dot, I need someone to go out into the field of this town and fetch me some ingredients." "If you succeed, I will even let you help me make some potions." Zakariah stated with a hearty tone as Dot's eyes shot back towards the old man, he knew this man had an ace up his sleeve and since he could clearly state by his posture he was too old to do the task at hand, even if he was in his fifties, with a subtle shake of his head he nods to the old man, before seeing him speak out once more to him. "Alright, I need you to fetch me five materials, anything that is leafy or herb like will do." That was all the elderly male stated to Dot whom nodded once more.

The whole situation of the creator of Sword Art Online, Akihiko Kayaba had caused soo many players to fear death, fear the peril of this world and the time away from their loved ones, but for a young brunette male with eyes cold as steel but vivid as the sea and sky itself, he held a melancholy expression upon his demeanor, not much was visible of the somber figure, his spikey hair dancing in the breeze, how long had he been inside SAO? So much time had passed as he dwelled inside the Inn's, avoiding interaction with others whom he wished to not beacon to his own well being, but all that changed as he watched many of the NPC's about him chatter about, the constant voices they held began to wreck havoc on his ears and gave him a headache, constantly asked him if he wanted this, wanted that, but every time he declined their request and the next time they saw him they would disregard his requests as if they forgot his face. 

The irritation was more than he could take, and as he wondered about around the Town of Beginnings, he ventured to a section of the Town he neglected to explore, and upon reaching it he heard a male voice he had not recollected before today, a male with stark white hair, holding a few empty bottles. "You there, young man!" "Would you be willing to assist a old man in his time of need?" "I will give you the basics of this place and how to survive." The male was clearly talking towards the young player with a iron lance upon his back and the dinky looking iron breast plate, however the case this offer of information was intriguing and since it was a NPC it could be a quest and if <<d0ttmAniac>> knew anything about quests is that they held rewards and usually helpful items at that, so with a nod he looked towards the ivory locked gentleman. "Sure, I'll help you out."

About

Personality

Roberto is regarded as a somber and quiet individual, he has demonstrated several noetic characteristics resembling that of mild Autism, such as a reluctance to understand the quirks of mundane individuals such as convivial interactions, or verbalization to others. While this doesn't hamper his perspicacity as a coder, it does bring up flags of interaction with other organic individuals and even mechanical. Roberto inclines to be a recluse, keeping to themselves and evading verbalizing as much as possible, he doesn't understand certain things such as visually examining someone in the ocular perceivers when returning words, he withal inclines to stutter when being pressured. Most often he inclines to show little restraint when interacting with his body, such as playing with his hair, picking his nasal perceiver or even teeth, to even scratching his face perpetually, however, Roberto shows extreme perspicacity when it comes to the topic of Computer Programming and System Coding, despite his lack to learn convivial norms.

History

Born in London, England, Roberto was the son of a Spanish-American Journalist; Vicente Santiago-Matias Mendes. and a English Baker; Olivia Ava Eleanor, Olivia met her husband when he wrote an article on her bakery, after reading about how lovely everything she made was, she took a liking to him. After sometime of them spending together, getting to know each other, Olivia and Vicente soon became a couple, seeing how Vicente still had his job with his company, after many months of being with Olivia, Vicente asked her to be his wife. Of course, she said yes to him, thus, their marriage was commenced and began on the February 14th, Valentines day, many people showed up to the wedding, including Vicente's boss and co-workers along with his mother, father and Olivia's parents. Life moves on, and nine months later, Roberto was born, healthy and happy, Roberto grew up near Scotland Yard, he had friends as he grew older, went to school and as when he became of age, he took a fond liking to Video Games.

He was about eight or nine years old when his mother bought him a MMORPG for his ninth birthday, she told him not to let it get in the way of his school work, which it didn't at first, but as he played it more, and grew a love for it he quickly began to become addicted to playing games. It wasn't to the point of his health or grades becoming far too low, but it did make him avoid others, not become as active with society or other people, but it did allow him to get a nice little side job being a server admin for one of his favorite MMORPG's, this continued onward into High school where he entered Computer Programing and System Coding Mechanics classes. Roberto studied hard and shortly after entering it, he became somewhat of a Savant, not in the terms of intelligence wise, but social wise, his grades were the highest in the region, a college from Tokyo took interest in Roberto's high grades and excellent recommendation from many teachers who wrote about him.

They were willing to allow him to enroll into their campus, his mother and father were both thrilled to know that their son's obsession got him into college for free, only eighteen and already being able to go to college, he packed his things and bid his mother and father goodbye, but not farewell for good. When he arrived there, he had to take a language class due to his inability to speak Japanese, he took this while taking his normal classes, which were the Computer Programming, System Coding, Physics, Calculus and various other classes. Roberto quickly rose in them, like he did in High school, while working as at his school as a computer programmer, working on their firewalls, it was a way for him to gain first hand experience while in class. After his time in College, he graduated once more, being at the top of his class, he left his school with a Master's Degree, which he had to take specialized classes to get the ability to obtain the Degree, but with his knowledge he set out to get a job with a local gaming company, they placed him as a assistant System Inspector.

He did this for a year before becoming the lead System Advisor to the companies System Coding and Security Monitoring, but one day his boss came to him and asked him to investigate a new device that came onto the market, the NerveGear, produced by the company Argus, Roberto was given the task to purchase one and a random game. He was told to constantly monitor the system and how it operated so his company could manufacture replicas and gain some extra customers. Roberto was convinced by a raise which was forty-five percent higher than normal, which he agreed to, so he took what money he saved up over the last year, went to the store and bought a NerveGear and a MMORPG called SAO, and that day he went home. It wasn't until the next day which he purchased the game did he begin his inspection, he did an exterior analyzes of the rig before booting it up and doing everything it asked him as he loaded up SAO after creating an account. Afterwards he laid down on his bed in his fancy apartment, knowing his friend from work would come over to see how he was, with a smile on his face, he allowed the system to boot up completely before speaking out quickly; "Link, Start."

Virtues

1.) Gentle Heart: Roberto is a tender and kind spirit, he tends to be kind to mostly anyone he meets but often keeping his interactions short to just a few minutes, unless he is required to spend more of this personal time with another human being. Roberto tends to show this kindness to anyone, it doesn't matter whom he meets he is often met with a smile that seems almost child-like even if it isn't needed.

2.) Intelligent: Due to his love and passion for computers and system coding, Roberto has gained a stout IQ, able to process information much faster than others, thus allowing him to formulate plans and various other things much quicker. Due to this he is able to be an amazing tactician and leader since he can process everything and keep a collected mind about it all under stress and continuous information gathering.

3.) Knowledgeable: Due to his history of playing and developing RPG's, Roberto is quite fluent in simple Role Playing Games logic, such as creatures, how to identify them and their weaknesses without being too stuck up about it. He tends to do this subtlety, not really making things unfair or boring, but he has enough knowledge to keep himself safe if put up against a creature he has met in a past game he has developed or a creature similar to it.

Flaws

Reference: http://www.darkworldrpg.com/lore/flaws.html
1.) Easily Distracted: Despite his intellect with computers and coding and his memory, Roberto does suffer from being easily distracted, the littlest thing can cause him to observe whatever caught his attention, Even if it is something small like a butterfly or a bird chirping in the distance near him, which can be quite a nuisance when focusing is needed, it's just something he has learned to deal with.

2.) Somber: However you view this, Roberto is a person who tends to be very Somber and often secludes his emotions from most people, he does this as to him sometimes emotions get in the way of more important tasks. Roberto usually does this whenever he is focused on a important task or whenever he freely wishes as he sometimes wishes to not bother with expensing his energy with it.

3.) Loner: Due to being picked on as a kid due to his mental disability, Roberto has often learned to stay to himself as being around others usually results to his feelings being hurt or his quiet time being disrupted when he doesn't want it to. Often at times he will observe a person before allowing them to interact with him, or even allowing himself to interact with them, which ever comes first.

4.) Socially Awkward: Due to his mental disability, Rorberto is a person who tends to be somewhat awkward in public, he doesn't understand the norms of society very well and often will pick at his face of do things not normally accepted. This is all due to his Autism, however, he doesn't have a high level of it, he does know when he should and shouldn't do the things he does but will at times disregard this and do them anyways.
