The Beginning for him. (Open to all)

[Akira]

A dominantly subtle yet slightly husked British voice broke free from the lips of a male with black hair as he stood amongst the various players and NPC's that comprised within 'The Town Of Beginnings'. 

"I Can't stay like this... It's not right... Others are out there trying.. they're trying really hard.. I can't let them do this alone.. i need to get my levels up and get the hell out of this game.. I've been sitting around for too long.. If i don't at least try, Then i may as well die in this here.." 

Akira stood at the height of 6'8, Wearing a black T-shirt with a navy blue collared trench coat that snugly gripped to his slender frame. It draped down his torso and fell to the floor, But was no where near tripping him as the bottom of it stropped just before it back the of his wet sand colored combat boots. His trousers were black and were loose fitting in the leg as they sat bunched up at the hem on top of his boots. His gaze was slightly of sorrow, But he had been spending the last few day's in fear of taking a quest due to his level. 

"I just need a place to start, I'll get the levels.. You watch me, I will make it out of this game."

He spoke to himself with a slightly hushed voice as his hazel eyes peered over his current surroundings, although they were not knew to him.. He had felt like this was the first time he had really seen them. His light shaded skin held a slight shade of pink as he moved through the town, Making his way towards the quest board without any sign of letting up, No, Today.. Hesitation was not something he was going to endure anymore. 

[Elpharae]

Elpharae paused between people, murmuring apologies when he bumped into others. He caught sight of a tall figure, but dismissed it easily. There were always a handful of people who seemed out of place in Sword Art Online, so it wasn't that unusual, himself far from the norm.

He approached the quest board, looking over some with an interested glance before noticing that they were already pursued. He bumped into someone lightly, and turned to apologize. The brunette's eyes widened in recognition. It was that player from earlier-he seemed a foot or so taller than Elpharae, making the boy feel even shorter than normal, which was a feat to be proud of. Tucking a strand of hair behind his ear, he mumbled an apology, still unsure. "I'm sorry for bumping into you..."

His eyes returned to the quest board after those words, and he internally winced. His shyness seemed to only be an impediment in situations like these, but it didn't really matter, did it? His fingers ran over some pieces of paper reporting quests that needed to be filled before he settled on one that seemed particularly interesting, before noticing it would probably require a partner or group.

[Takita]

While walking to the Quest board, Takita noticed how many people there already were, even though the game was announced to be the death-game she feared. She easily shrugged it off while her eyes searched for a quest that would suit her and her abilities well.

In the corner of her hazel coloured eyes she noticed how another player caught interest for the same quest as herself, she swore under her breath before exhaling a deep breath. She carefully knocked the man's shoulder, trying not to frighten him.
'' Excuse me.. That quest you're holding.. It require a group, yes? '' Her voice was hoarse from the lack of communication with others.

It wasn't often she interacted with the people around her, in fear of getting important friends to later lose them in battle, a pain she would rather avoid at any price.
