Riardon

Riardon liked having all of his options on the table. He laid out the weapon he had picked up and prepped it for evaluation. Once again the menus proved a bit of an issue for him to navigate, but even after just a few times evaluating items, Riardon was getting the hang of it. The weapon shifted before his eyes becoming a slender rapier. It was crude and didn't look like it would do much, but it was still a weapon that might be useable by some one. He wasn't much of a swordsman, but he could very likely pick it up. "Well Drax," Riardon announced. "I've successfully identified all my items

Riardon wanted to start small. He selected the consumable he had picked up. Carefully he began navigating menus and trying his best to find the specific feature of the item to finalize its identity. Eventually he landed on mitigation as it seemed to fit the best. The item began to morph from a nondescript consumable item to a small pack of beef jerky. It was simple but it was his first solo identification. There were a few rough patches in the process, but that was mainly from him learning the system still. His quest log updated with the progress, so at least he knew it was done right, even if

The duo made their way back to Tolbana with haste, arriving at Drax's shop after only a handful of minutes. Riardon was the first to enter, taking the lead as this was his quest to complete. "Drax," Riardon announced. "I have returned with my unevaluated items." "Very good my friend," Drax said with excitement. "Let's see what you've found." Riardon placed the first item on the counter for inspection. He worked a long side Drax ensuring he took down notes on everything he needed to do for evaluating items. It seemed a simple process, much more so than his process in real life, b

"Sound's like an interesting proposition," Riardon replied as he prepared to head back to Tolbana. "I would love to have a fairly frequent customer once everything is up and running. I ran a small hobby and game store in the real world, hence the reasoning for taking up the appraiser profession. Now that I've got these items I can start getting everything set up, but first we just have to wrap up this little quest of ours." Riardon watched Wulfrin fish with delight. It looked so much like a cozy little gig that might be more his speed, but the kid did have a point. He couldn't just take f

"Well that's certainly a relief," Riardon sighed as he adjusted his fine clothes. His interest was peaked by Wulfrin's sudden announcement of a business idea. What could the young lad be planning? He'll peruse that momentarily. For now Riardon needed to find the last item he needed for his quest. It didn't take long to locate mind you. Despite Wulfrin's previous warning, the items seemed to be readily available. Though without entering combat, Riardon started to wonder how he would get the items to appraise. He supposed he could go fishing, but more likely he would have to pick up a blade. Thi

"Be careful lad," Riardon whispered trying to keep quite as he moved closer to the river bed. "I'm confident in your abilities, but I also know this game can be unforgiving." His bodyguard disappeared into the woods towards where Riardon had heard the hostile mobs approaching from. Wulfrin seemed like he had almost zero fear when it came to venturing into the dense forest around them. That likely game from experience in the game. Like most other games of this type, if you managed to get your numbers high enough, the monsters had a hard time posing a challenge. There was a flash of crimson

"I'll have to take you up on the tutorial another day," Riardon said as he continued his search. "Today it's about getting a business off the ground. I've spent the last two years observing the players around me fighting to escape our collective predicament, and now I want to try and give back." Riardon made a thorough search of the area, finding another burrow in the base of a nearby tree. Inside lay another item ripe for plundering. This time it appeared as a plain set of armor. One couldn't even discern the type of armor as it seemed to shift between multiple types in a fluid transitio

"No Wulfrin," Riardon replied with a sigh. "I'm afraid I will be no use to you if combat does break out. Violence isn't exactly my cup of tea." "You wont get very far in this world with that mentality I'm afraid," The young man said. "Especially if you're going to be an appraiser. Outside of fishing, looting mobs is the best way to get the unidentified items you need." "Sounds like fishing is the way for me to go." Riardon smiled as the two exited Tolbana. Wulfrin was of course in the lead, but was still shoulder to shoulder with himself. To keep up the conversation "Not recomme

Having spent plenty of time exploring the world that now served as his home, Riardon wanted the opportunity to aid the other players of Sword Art Online. He was non combative, at least if he could help it. Violence was not in his nature, as he saw it as a rather unproductive way to get what you want. Was it necessary in some situations? Of course it was, this was a fantasy video game after all. Riardon however, preferred to spend his time mostly in the cities of Aincrad. At one point he had stumbled onto the ability to identify and buy items off players as junk. This excited Riardon in an odd
