Story
You are suddenly awoken by a thorough chill that pulses through your body. Half-awake, you get out of bed and begin getting dressed. You finish, but then notice something strange: the sun isn't up, yet there is an eerie light filling your room.
You explore the rest of your house and find that you are alone. No family. You step outside. Shadowy mists are flowing everywhere, and disgruntling whispers can be heard from... somewhere. A pang of fear pierces your chest when you look around and see nothing. All that is visible in any direction more than 50 feet outside of your house is a roiling blackness.

Gameplay
Up to 7 players will be accepted. Players will engage it battles with enemies that I determine. Players will request their actions to me during a battle, and I will do appropriate calculations. Players start at level 1, and will receive experience (XP) to level up for doing damage to enemies, defeating an enemy, and winning a battle (though there may be more).
Outside of battle, I will provide some guidance, but overall the players will request what to do. There are innumerable actions players can choose. When one player suggests an action, I will either post it for players to agree with or shoot down, and if a player consensus has already been reached, I will tell what happens as a result of the players' actions. If the players wish to separate and explore separately, that is fine, they need only request it. However, the hordes of enemies players encounter will NOT be weakened for a solo player.
Any other information needed? Just ask!

You both desperately try to flee the enclosing shadows, but you find no success. The shadow-free area is now only about 30 square feet in size, and angry tufts and blobs of shadow seem to be aggressively rushing at you, as if they don't want you there...

You step outside to a horrifying scene. Debris from unknown sources is scattered everywhere, and shadows seem to be eating the pieces. Winds howl ominously, and disgruntling whispers fill your head from every direction. In the distance, you clearly discern a wall of shadow, and you also note that it is heading in your direction. What will you do?

[It's more like te-gale. The second part is supposed to be like the word, or something close to that, but the important difference is that the first part is like saying "terminate", not "tea".]
[I won't be joining a party. At least not for now.]
I try to move away from the wall, by slowly stepping backwards (almost moonwalking ).

[Okay. About your ability. What I'm going to say is that elemental will be your only form of attack. Your Offense will affect the damage the attacks do (by the way, the elements I'm allowing are Fire, Ice, Thunder, Poison, and Light), and when you level up your ability (every five levels), the chance of the elements's extra effects will go up.
Here's what I'm thinking -
Fire - May cause burn
Ice - May freeze
Thunder - Hits all enemies - May shock
Poison - May poison
Light - Heal an ally - May give ally bonus health each turn
Now, this would give you an advantage over other players, so what I'm going to do is limit your attack number to two, instead of the normal four.
Does this sound good to you, Blue Wings?]

Unimpressed, the wall continues its advance toward you. Hisses and whispers become more common and eerie, and you think you see figures flying around above you...

After a while, the figure comes back out.
"Explain to me exactly how you got here."
You do. After your story, the figure sighs and sits down. Slowly, he pulls his hood back, and to your surprise, he's human!
"Well, then I must welcome you."
