Marius

Hoping to try and acquire another material at this point, the old man would cast his lure back into the water. Last time might have simply been a fluke or perhaps just a bit of bad luck. Surely he would be able to come out on top this time! "C'mon Marius, you just need to try and do what you did back in the real world. Y'know, become one with the fish. I am one with the fish, the fish are with me. I must feel the heart of the rod. Become one with it and convince these fish to come a bitin'!" None of this would actually help Marius of course. If anything, all it had done was serve as a distract

Feeling a tad overconfident in his fishing abilities now, Marius would rather quickly cast the hook back out into the pond. "This should be easy.. Much like back before the game, huh? Hahaha." Several moments would go by and nothing would happen as far as Marius had been aware. The lure would simply bob back and forth atop of the water as he had been waiting. It was... almost an entirely abysmal experience to watch compared to his last attempt. "This... doesn't seem right. Was I simply to eager beforehand? Must have been a lucky attempt..." Whether it had been a lucky attempt or not had been s

Now that Marius had decided on fishing for not only his secondary profession in the future but his current gathering method, he would begin to traverse a bit farther into the territory of the Plains in search of a pond of sorts. He had heard of various ponds being spread out throughout the plains from several other players in the past and as such, it felt as though it wouldn't be too hard to come across one. Thankfully, he had been correct in this assumption! Not even fifteen minutes in and the old man had successfully managed to come upon a rather stunning pond that had spread throughout a ra

Seeing as there was no need for Marius to acquire a mount of some sort, he had simply decided to walk around the Plains themselves. This was the prime location for beginner characters to farm low level monsters and admittedly it was one of the things that Marius himself had wanted to do at this very moment. Unfortunately he was going to need to focus rather solely on this quest for now. It was too dangerous for him to try and farm various monsters on his own, even with his MITIGATION being factored in, so he was going to need to instead try and obtain the materials in another way. "Let's see..

Pushing past the tiredness that had previously been lying within, Marius would eagerly begin to nod his head in agreement. This was the beginning of something new for him and that had been enough to prepare him the the arduous journey that lie ahead. "Right, of course!" He would quickly press the accept button for the quest acceptance display that had appeared before him while continuing on. "Retrieve some materials for 'ya. I can most certainly do that." It was with that that Marius would turn about and begin to head on out of the shop. He was going to need to try and obtain some materials bu

Although it may not have been long that Marius had been within this virtual world, the elderly gentleman had come to quite a realization... He was going to need to try and find a means of survival for himself and his grandson! The duo, like so many others, had found themselves in a situation in which they were going to need to try and get by until the floors had been completed but how on earth were they going to do that? Adventuring and clearing the floors sounded like it would certainly be of use to everyone but this old man just wasn't confident enough to try and do such a thing at this time

In preparation for a future quest, Marius had begun to wander about the first floor's Town of Beginnings. They had recently decided that they had wanted to take up the art of crafting but that was likely going to require assistance from another. People themselves were far too unreliable and as such, this old man had figured that he might as well go and gain a familiar as an assistant. The main issue with that was that he had heard tales of how hard it is to tame and train a familiar! That being said, he really didn't want to stress himself out with such a thing. The best way to bypass that sit

After having traversed through the Town of Beginnings several times over, Marius would eventually come across a small store that had gone by the name of 'The Evening Star.' He had heard the rumors of this place quite awhile ago but had never managed to take the time to come down here. Now that he was here though... he wasn't quite sure how to feel. The setting of the store had been rather shady overall but that was likely for a reason, right? Right? Regardless of whatever the truth behind that situation had been, Marius had been here on business. He had to try and ensure that he would le

With his grandson having prompted the acceptance of the quest, Marius would nod as confirmation to the NPC. At this, Dorian would nod in response and go on to speak a bit further. "Excellent, I knew I could count on you! You might start with Zackariah, the alchemist. He's often doing projects for the town, so it may have been him that borrowed the money." It would seem as though things were finally getting underway. Or at least they would be once he had managed to figure out where this Zakariah's abode had been located. "I'm not quite sure that that will be necessary, Fly-... Erebus. ALSO, I a

As unfortunate as it was for Cathal, it would appear as though the time had come for him to step up and begin to work towards becoming a true protector for his grandson. Or.. should he call himself by his username now? Marius did have a certain ring about itself so... It shouldn't be that hard to remember. With that matter taken care of, Marius would turn his attention towards his grandson and offer him a curt nod. "Right... I suppose that it is time for us to get started on things now, Fly-... er, Erebus. So what exactly do you think that we should do to get started?" While it might have just

Profile Username: Marius Real name: - Cathal Ó Branagáin Age: 74 Gender: Male Height: 6'2" About: History/personality Cathal O' Branagáin is a 74 year old man that has lived quite an eventful life prior to his time in Sword Art Online. Born in Galway, Ireland, Cathal had been born to two loving parents that had gone on to do many things for him as he had been growing up. This was largely in part to him being an only child, but the funds that his family had acquired over time also had a hand in this particular matter. Having grown up in a time where electronics wer
