Chocobo Farm and Racetrack

The Chocobo Farm
The Chocobo farm is a well-maintained area out in the countryside. It allows the chocobos to have a place to stay and eat, and a place for the public to come if they with to pet one, go for a ride, or purchase one.
People can have their chocobos stabled here as well, as there is plenty of space. Some of the chocobos owned by Bill himself sometimes 'accidentally' escape the farm and explore the town and beach, allowing the public a chance to see them and follow or ride them back to the farm, where more information can be gotten about them. Strangely enough, none of the privately owned chocobos ever seem to escape...

The Chocobo Races

Chocobo Racing takes place at the newly completed racetrack on Fantasy Island, near the Chocobo Farm. While most of these racers are from various worlds, some of them are from the Farm itself. Much money can be won not just from the betters but also from the racers themselves.

There are four races each day there is an event going on at the racetrack. Currently the racing authority allows races to have at least four, but no more then six, chocobos in the race.Races can be one track length or one and a half track lengths.



The Racers

Here are the chocobos that most often compete at the chocobo racetrack, along with their riders, and betting odds:


1. Garlin - Yellow Chocobo. Rider: Shevan. Odds: 10 - 1
2. Segil - Green Chocobo. Rider: Pretim. Odds: 7 - 2
3. Warlin - Blue Chocobo. Rider: Valmose. Odds: 6 - 1
4. Bad Luck Willy - Yellow Chocobo. Rider: Lucky. Odds: 20 - 1
5. Shiva - Blue Chocobo. Rider: Ansep. Odds: 5 - 1
6. Ifrit - Red Chocobo. Rider: Alina. Odds: 5 - 2
7. Zeke - Gold Chocobo. Rider: Faora. Odds: 3 - 2
8. Paltrina - Black Chocobo. Rider: Marrow. Odds: 4 - 1
9. Dalsom - Yellow Chocobo. Rider: Masin. Odds: 9- 1
10. Darsuke - Green Chocobo. Rider: Lisa. Odds: 9 - 2



The Race

To determine who will compete in this race, the GM will roll the number of competitors d10, so if there are four racers there will be a 4d10 roll. Duplicate numbers are re-rolled.


A chocobo to reach the finish line must roll at least x number of points in order to finish the race. A white roll gives 1 point, a green 2 points, a yellow 3 points, and a red 5 points. Here is what is rolled for each color chocobo:

Yellow: Typical
Green: Good
Blue: Excellent
Red: Remarkable
Black: Incredible
Gold: Amazing


This system allows for the rarer chocobos to have an advantage, without making it impossible for the 'weaker' colors to win. Do note more then one word can be rolled at a time, so to roll for a yellow, blue, yellow, gold race you would !roll typical excellent typical amazing .



Tie Breakers

If when the race is over, if there is a tie for placing, ties are decided by
1. Who has the most of the top color. ( If one chocobo has 1 red roll and the other has 2, the one with two wins. )
2. If they have equal numbers, the higher average wins. ( 89 and 87 would beat out 93 and 74, for example )
3. If the average is the same, this continues on to the next color down.



Competing Yourself

It is possible for a player to compete in the chocobo races if they so wish. However, to do such first they must earn a license.

While anyone can rent a chocobo at the farm, competing with one requires a license that states you are trained in the knowledge of how to ride a chocobo and race them safely. Licenses can be gotten through Chocobo Bill, who is authorized by the Association to give out licenses.

Rookie racers can rent out a yellow chocobo from the farm for competing in races or for practice. As they improve in skill they can compete with other colors, or even acquire a chocobo of their own, which can be stabled at the farm if they do not have their own facilities. In addition, those who race at least five times can earn the 'Chocobo Rider' skill, giving them a +1CS to rolls when they race. If they fail learning the skill they must participate in at least 1 more race before trying again.


Racer Ranks:
Grand Champion: 250 points
- Gold Chocobo Unlocked
Champion: 100 points
- Black Chocobo Unlocked
Elite: 50 points
- Red Chocobo Unlocked
Skilled: 25 points
- Blue Chocobo Unlocked
Beginner: 10 points
- Green Chocobo unlocked
Rookie: 0 points
- Yellow Chocobo Unlocked

The points you earn each race is 11 - rank. So if you finished 1st you'd get 11 - 1 = 10 points. If you finished last you'd get 11 - 10 = 1 point.

Chocobo Types:

Yellow: Standard Chocobo. Good at everything, great at nothing. They are the most common and tend to be the most popular with new owners and riders as they tend to have a very laid back and cheerful atmosphere.
Known Abilities: None


Green: In most cases a step up from the yellow. They are very sure-footed and keep their balance quite well on any terrain. They have a tendency to get spooked easily, requiring a very calming rider to keep them from running off and needing to be coaxed back, though in most cases are reasonable and reliable.
Known Abilities: Many green chocobo can heal minor injuries on itself and those around them.


Blue: The fastest chocobos around in most cases, these ones love to race. Physically the weakest they're not built or long distance hauling, but will do whatever it takes to prove themselves to their owner and impress them. They tend to be very trusting and protective of females, and many blues have been known to throw themselves into danger to protect a female human or a child.
Known Abilities: Almost all blue chocobo can run on shallow water, many can walk on deep water and very few can run on deep water.


Red: Physically the most powerful of the colors, they are as stubborn as they are powerful. They tend to be somewhat distrusting of a new owner or rider, and if they wish to go somewhere contrary to where the rider wants to go, it takes a lot of work to convince them. This being said, one s rider is trusted, woe to anyone who harms their owner in their presence..
Known Abilities: A few learn some basic fire abilities, mostly a small fireball.


Black: Rare to see, this color is great at just about everything. They don't run as fast as blue or as strong as a red in most cases, but they are great at everything. Due to this they tend to be highly prizes and very expensive.
Known Abilities: Black chocobos use to be able to fly. Some show an ability to for short distances, rarely over 100 yards.


Gold: The cream of the crop. These outshine all overs in nearly every category. Now and then one will find a blue that can run faster or a red that is stronger, but the combination of skills and abilities makes these worth a small fortune.
Known Abilities: All golds can walk on water. Most can heal, though not as well as greens. Only one has been known to fly short distances.
