To climb the ranks of this system adventurers will be sent out on various quests by staff.These quests will be rewarded based on difficulty and at the discretion of the staff member or veteran posting it.
Proof of the completion of quests will be determined by screenshots, staff accompanying you on said quest or retrieval of the special item on item retrieval quests.

Dueling
Dueling at the Crossroads is not only available, it's encouraged! Have someone doubting your prowess? Eager to show off a new skill or technique? Or do you wish you just bash your head against a friend to settle a debate?
All and more are welcome so long as you follow these rules:
1: Any and all fights must have the consent of both parties. If at anypoint during the duel it is revoked, any and all actions will cease immediately.
2: Be on the same page as one another before starting the fight. Set a tone for the fight be it serious, jovial or friendly. We do not want others to be mocked or put down solely due to anothers inabilty to read the room or 'show-off'.
3: Keep Power levels at the door. Just because you write an overpowered god who can merely snap another out of existence without a second thought, doesn't mean you should. Don't revel in your powerfantasy at the expense of others.
4: Respect your fellow patrons and staff. Listen to what each other has to say or feel.
With those rules and terms read and accepted, we here at The Crossroads do duels at the barest levels. To encourage those fresh to RP while also keeping veterans of the craft entertained!
How the flow of our duels work is as follows:We roll off a '3-hit point' or 'First to Three' system at The Crossroads, meaning the first to be dealt three points of damage will be declared the loser! Each attack is only allowed to deal one point of damage per success, so no multi-hits or specials are allowed here!
Both players will roll either a /random or a /random 20 (Whichever the parties decide on.) The higher of the two will gain advantage and be the ones to start off the duel! From here on, the winner of the initial roll will be referred to as 'The Attacker' and the loser of the roll will be referred to as 'The Defender'.
The Attacker will then write up their opening attack then roll a /random 20 for Attack, to which the Defender will a /random 20 for defense.
-On the success of The Attacker, The Defender will take one point of damage!
-On the success of The Defender, The Attackers roll will be nullified and no damage will be taken!Once the roll resolves, it will no be The Defenders turn to attack! They'll write their reaction to The Attackers result, success or failure, and then write their own attack followed by rolling a /random 20.
The results of which will be the same as before:
-On the success of The Defender, The Attacker will take one point of damage!
-On the success of The Attackers, The Defenders roll will be nullified and no damage will be taken!And you then repeat the process from the top until either one of you ends up on the floor!For the case of rolling the same number (Though it's rare it does happen!), we allow the parties to decide what they wish to do with the results. The two can either reroll, call the attack null or have both take a hit a damage! It's your creation, make of it what you will so long as it's agreed upon!Any questions or concerns, don't be afraid to voice them to either Minty Nishikawa or Ebi Nishikawa
