Aaron Colvard (Game Start - Level 1)

Strength: E (Below Acceptable)
Defense: E (Below Acceptable)
Agility: A (Above Average)
Magic: D (Acceptable)
Luck: E (Below Acceptable)

----

When the game starts, Aaron notices immediately that something is amiss. Unlike his friends, he notes that his body isn't getting more fit and he seems relatively unchanged. However, he notes that his reflexes, normally only apparent with video games, have obtained a sharp increase, which allows him to augment his lack of defense and strength into apparent speed and momentum. As time goes on, he starts leveling up against the imps and slowly increases his stats over time. He becomes TERROR-STRICKEN when a news report talks on a Meteor crashing in Evan's hometown, signaling his entering the medium. While he is virtually unaware of what this could mean, he decides to warn players to enter their medium's as quickly as possible. He is the third to enter the medium after Evan and Ryo.

----

Aaron Colvard (Enter the Medium LOAAC - Level 6)

Strength: D (Acceptable)
Defense: E+ (Slightly below acceptable.)
Agility: A (Above Average)
Magic: C (Above Acceptable)
Luck: E+ (Slightly below Acceptable.)

Elizabeth!Sprite (Enter the Medium LOAAC - Level 3)
Strength: D (Above Acceptable)
Defense: E (Acceptable)
Agility: C+ (Slightly above average)
Magic: D (Above Acceptable)
Luck: E (Acceptable)

----

After crafting his kernel sprite by accidentally prototyping it with one of his graphic novels (Specifically a copy of 'Anya's Ghost' by Vera Brosgol) and going through the needed trials, Aaron and his house arrive in the medium and are immediately beset upon by imps and ogres, multi-tasking between fighting, leveling up, watching after his misplaced family, and building up the needed materials for Beth's house. In the midst of it, Aaron is slowly starting to grow a liking to the intensity of his situation, starting to see it as a game as he had initially wanted. The others, though concerned, decide to let him be since this is his way of coping and, in the long term, it may actually help them out (They remember Aaron's extensive experience in other RPG games and let him stay in his element). In spite of his gusto however, a reasonably traumatized Elizabeth!Sprite (Reeling over the meaning of her own existance) refuses to help Aaron in figuring out the game. As Kitty, Aaron's sister, and the family dog Cassie start helping in fighting back, Aaron gets a message from Evan and falls asleep. As apparently his Dreamself is just as heavy a reader as he is, Aaron's Dreamself finds a 'manga' detailing the history of Derse, Prospit, Skaia and the 'Dreamers'. Even discovering the ability to fly during it, and coming to find out that there may be powerful enemies that want their heads... Which prompts him to thoroughly barricade his tower's door out to the stairway, and attempt to seek a new place to hide since his tower is LESS then conspicuous. And that's not even MENTIONING the odd guy he saw outside looking up at his window....

[DanteMGalileo]

Dante Arti (Game Start - Level 1)

Strength: D (Acceptable)
Defense: D (Acceptable)
Agility: B (Average)
Magic: D (Acceptable)
Luck: C (Slightly above acceptable)

----

When the game starts, Arti takes note that this isn't a normal game; for starters, most games aren't THIS immersive. Regardless, he proves to be one of the stronger beginning players, chalking it up on being Boston. That being said, as Arti was the fourth player in, he has to deal with enemies stronger than what Aaron, Evan, and Ryan had to deal with, somewhat cancelling out his base lead.

----

Dante Arti (Enter the Medium LOWAS - Level 6)

Strength: D+ (Acceptable)
Defense: D (Acceptable)
Agility: B+ (Average)
Magic: D+ (Acceptable)
Luck: B (Average)

Dracosprite (Enter the Medium LOWAS - Level 3)
Strength: C (Acceptable)
Defense: C (Acceptable)
Agility: A (Above Average)
Magic: D+ (Acceptable)
Luck: B (Average)

----

After prototyping his kernelsprite with a Jolteon plushie and breaking his cruxite item, Arti is teleported to the Medium, where he, his uncle, and his sprite are put under siege by an array of underlings. Noticing one cat is dead (Draco) and two (Bill and Gus) are in danger, Arti immediately prototypes Draco into his sprite and captchalogues the two living cats to ensure their safety. With the cover of his server player (and a few batches of pasta as a barrier), Arti quickly cracks the alchemitor and produces some low-cost, but efficient weaponry and sets out to aid his uncle and Dracosprite in clearing his house and turning the siege on its head. Arti tends to ignore most of the other players outside of his server in this stage, instead focusing on getting his house clear. Dracosprite, while clearly devoted to defending the house, can't help but annoy Arti. After realizing that A) The underlings don't seem to want to go near his pasta and B) That said pasta somehow costs negative grist to make, he alchemizes a TON of pasta with the intent of distributing it as a deterrent to his friends... but ends up falling asleep due to exhaustion... only to wake up on a mysterious, purple world...

[ParamountKeymaster]

Evan Anders (Game Start - Level 1)

Strength: A (Slightly above Average)
Defense: C (Slightly above Acceptable)
Agility: C (Slightly above Acceptable)
Magic: E (Below Acceptable)
Luck: E (Below Acceptable)

----------

Before starting the game, Evan is contacted by someone referring to himself as the Angel of Time, who sendificates a strange key to Evan which can lock or unlock literally anything, with the apparent downside of it being forcibly allocated to his strife specibus. This is enough to convince him that something is amiss, but he nonetheless proceeds to play the game, acting as the client with Ryan as his server. Confusion aside, he goes along with the bizarrely immersive game up until he notices the meteor. At Ryan's insistence, Evan holds off on contacting his family and girlfriend (his father was at work; his mother was in the hospital; Jen was visiting her; Swift was in her own home) until they complete the initial requirements. He does so quickly and is the first to enter the Medium.

----------

Evan Anders (Enter the Medium LOLAG - Level 6)

Strength: A (Above Average)
Defense: B (Average)
Agility: C (Above Acceptable)
Magic: E (Below Acceptable)
Luck: D (Acceptable)

Brendonsprite (Enter the Medium LOLAG - Level 3)

Strength: B (Above Average)
Defense: B (Above Average)
Agility: A (Exceptional)
Magic: D (Above Acceptable)
Luck: B (Average)

----------

Already a pretty strong guy prior to the game, Evan proves to put up a decent fight when imps start pouring into his house, regardless of him finding it difficult to weaponize keys. His sprite, prototyped with a Panic! at the Disco poster, transforms into Brendonsprite, who takes on the role of a guide and an older brother figure to Evan. For reasons never explained, Brendonsprite openly refuses to be prototyped a second time. Despite the fact that they quickly prove to be an efficient team, Evan slips into a deep depression, distraught by the deaths of his family and girlfriend and plagued by the fact that he had been just about to propose to her. After slogging through the game for a bit and talking with his teammates and the Angel of Time again, Evan falls asleep and wakes up on a strange yellow world. The moment he flies out of his tower, he is attacked by a malevolent being in an oddly haunting scarf...

[ShadesofGrey18]

Pieter Majeske (Game Start - Level 1)

Strength: A+ (Exceptional)
Defense: C (Slightly above Acceptable)
Agility: B (Average)
Magic: C (Slightly above Acceptable)
Luck: E (Below Acceptable)

------

Owing to his taekwondo training and a history of physical activities such as intense musical performance and marching band, even before entering the Medium, Pieter had quite a bit of physical strength. Perhaps owing to his terrible luck, however, Pieter was the last one to enter the Medium. Due to Evan's emotional turmoil, Pieter barely was able to snap him out of it in time to enter, thanks to a word of advice about the game given to him by a 'fan' who talked in an odd manner (really a troll named Aquila). With a couple of his friends who were still in the dorm hall over the break taken with him into the game, Pieter began slowly but surely building up.

-------
Pieter Majeske (Enter the Medium; LOFAF - Level 6)

Strength: A+ (Exceptional)
Defense: B (Average)
Agility: B+ (Very slightly above Average)
Magic: A (Slightly above Average)
Luck: E (Below Acceptable)

Marispysprite (Enter the Medium; LOFAF - Level 3)

Strength: C (Average)
Defense: D (Above Acceptable)
Agility: A (Exceptional)
Magic: EX (Amazing)
Luck: A (Exceptional)

Upon entering, his talking Spy head he kept in his mini-fridge gets prototyped into a Spysprite that is less-than-helpful to him against the imps that have entered his dorm hall, cloaking and leaving him to fend off the Brass Imps pretty much on his own. Frustrated, Pieter chucks a Touhou Project poster in, giving the Sprite additional power in the form of might Love-Colored Magic. This helps him catch up with the others who have more or less heavily outleveled him at that point; this powerleveling coupled with intense meditation after learning from the mysterious source (again, Aquila) greatly improves many of Pieter's abilities.

Eventually, during one of his meditative trances, he slips off more and awakens in a purple room of his own...

[ryocker]

Ryan Jones (Game Start- Level 1)

Strength: E (Below Acceptable)
Defense: B (average) (can tank hits well and heal off a particularly nasty hit within seconds)
Agility: C/B (dependant- has taught himself to flash-step, so he can dodge attacks, but it's not perfect. Otherwise, he's hardly fast)
Magic: B
Luck: C (below average)

---

Waking up to about thirty calls forcing him out of bed, Ryo starts off groggy and non-compliant until Someone on the team starts hitting him with jokes and videos involving captioned actions. Afterwards, Ryo's mostly under the belief that this game sounds out of his league since he's far from fit enough to play anything really imersive, but he'd give it a try anyway, eagerly hoping he'd go in first. He doesn't. Fortunately, or maybe unfortunately, Ryan's dad was present in this up until it was Ryo's turn to get going and prepare to get shipped to the medium, meaning the man did not make it with his house. Ryan is second to enter the medium, after Evan and before Gantz.

---

Ryan Jones (Enter the Medium- LOGAG- Level 6)
Strength: D
Defense: A (above average)
Agility: C/B
Magic: B
Luck: C

KnucklexSprite (Enter the medium- LOGAG- Level 3)
Strength: EX
Defense: B
Agility: D
Magic: C
Luck: B

---

After breaking free his Kernal Sprite and powering it up with a Knuckles Plushy (tempting to use an Amiibo but F**K THAT NOISE), Ryo panics as he tries his best not to let his impatience and finicky actions cause failure to his mission. With a quick break of his artifact and a big flash of light, Ryo (with Gantz along for the ride) soon start making motions toward getting Ryo armed and ready to beat back the imps- which was hard enough if it wasn't for the fact he accidentally programmed his sketchbook as a weapon. Several whacks, his cat Alex jumping at Knucklesprite, and a ridiculous turn of events leading to the creation of Ryo's Sketchbook of Life later, the guy starts taking on a more battle-happy persona, eagerly attacking any imps (or ogres) dumb enough to mess with him.

In truth, however, it's soon revealed that Ryo feels genuinely happy here, taking out these mobs- but is also extremely upset that the last of his family was taken from him. Overcome with sadness and an intense desire to let out his frustrations, Ryo accidentally trips on his way to go out ane really explore his land, falling asleep in an instant. Of Course, the golden room he finds himself in isn't new...
