Mini Bio

Perhaps you just went to sleep- or perhaps you only just closed your eyes. Perhaps you were daydreaming, or your attention otherwise lapsed; either way, there's a jolt in the back of your mind, your world briefly morphing in to s̶t̷a̵t̷i̶c̵. When it clears, you're in a strange, misty landscape - your only clue a subtle glow in your vision.

Focus on it, and start your journey through Daiqua. What is Daiqua, you ask? Why, it's nothing less than the world's most state-of-the-art MMO, where users enter a virtual reality and truly experience what it is to swing a sword or cast a spell. Unfortunately for you, while entering was relatively easy - if unintended - you're without any means of logging out, and find yourself trapped in this fantasy world.

While Daiqua prides itself on its realism, for you, this takes a whole new meaning; it may well be a real world, albeit with a few...quirks. Certainly, you can respawn after falling in battle, and can open up a UI on the fly - to say nothing of how items can mysteriously appear and reappear as you sort your inventory. And so, while the world seems relatively low-stakes, there could be worse places to be trapped within.

Nonetheless, for you and those trapped like you, the stakes are magnified. Should you speak with the native players - that is, those who are able to log in and off at will - you'll find that they laugh at the idea of being 'trapped' within the game. And what may be vaguely troublesome bugs for those players become true life-and-death for you - for how can respawn occur if your very existence has been corrupted?

With little recourse, one may find that the game itself is their only option to any sort of resolution. Or even, if nothing else, a pleasant diversion from what their previous world may have offered. After all, games are designed to be fun, and Daiqua is no different. It is a distraction, an escape, a chance to feel in control of your world and your life as evidenced by its very tagline:

Daiqua: Decide your Destiny.

Daiqua is a panfandom, MMO-based jamjar where characters find themselves trapped within the virtual reality of a false fantasy. With the native players convinced they're simply really in to the whole immersive roleplay thing, they find themselves with few options but to play the game, one way or another. Our TDM is currently open, and we plan to run a beta month in June with no apps required. (With permission from Vallaress's mods for the concept.)
