THE STORY
Daemon Games has come out with a new gaming system, one that will literally put you into a different world - a virtual reality. The game is called "Dead Life."
In the game, you can accept quests, kill monsters, and even start businesses and get married. The game was a huge success, but unfortunatley, someone hacked the game and infected it with a virus.
The virus made it impossible for gamers to log out, meaning they will remain asleep and in the game. Fortunately, someone from Phoenix Games caught the virus and destroyed it before everyone could be effected by it, but there are still some trapped in the game without being able to wake from it.
Worst, the NPC's are getting even more violent and are starting to attack the towns, which they had never done before. This is bad for those who have little to no battle experience (which is most everyone due to the fact that the game is new, so everyone is pretty much a noobie).
You are one that is "lucky" enough to be caught in the game.
The only thing you can do is fight to survive. If you die (lose all HP), you go back to the rebirth point and lose a level of experience.
If you reach 0 of experience, you will automatically log out and wake up...except, because of the virus, you will not wake up. You will remain in limbo, so to speak. You are stuck at a white page until the virus can be solved.

Setting
There are four different countries: north, east, south, and west.
Each country has a large central city surrounded by walls. Monsters are outside the cities, and small villages are run by NPC's for healing purposes.
North
Cold, icy, land, but there's a large city in the center of the country. It is surrounded by huge walls, and on the other side of those walls is a cold, barren ice land with huge mountains.
East
Similar surroundings to ancient Japan and China. Outside the walls are some mountains and a lot of forests. There is also a large river running through it.
South
Tropical city. Surrounding area is the ocean (watch out for sharks - they jump out at you from time to time) and a jungle.
West
Modern western city. There's a lot of skyscrapers and is the busiest, most crowded city. Outside the walls are the slums in which monsters teem and attack anyone who trespasses.

Fighting
There are various different weapons in the game. More expensive ones generally have special abilities or can hold up to three augments, while cheap ones cannot. The cheaper the weapon, the weaker the attack. Also, cheap weapons have a tendency to break far more easily than expensive ones. However, even if you have the money for expensive weapons, you have to be a certain level to wield it. If you're too low, the weapon will be too heavy to lift - no exceptions. You can still keep the weapon in your inventory, but you must level up to be able to use it.
Augments/Special Abilities
Usually augments and abilities are elemental, though there are some rare abilities and augments that are not. Abilities that come with the sword cannot be changed, and generally if the sword already has a special ability it can only hold one augment, if that. Augments are hard to get off a weapon once they're put on (if they can come off at all). Generally taking off augments weakens the weapon, making it more susceptible to being shattered in battle.
Rage
Rage slowly builds up from being attacked and attacking in turn. It is activated by a voice command (a war cry) if the bar is completely full.
Advantages: greatly increases the amount of damage against a foe and, depending on the weapon or any augment on the weapon, will activate the weapon's special power (cheaper weapons do not have special powers)
Disadvantages: very slow to fill, generally can only be used once against one enemy, wears out the player more quickly and takes away a bit of HP from the player
