Unreal Legends
PrefaceCenturies ago, a great evil enveloped the land. A demonic creature of unimaginable power known as the Dark One was released from the depths of hell. His sole purpose was to prepare for an assault upon the heavens by destroying the troublesome mortal races. Using ancient demonic magic, the Dark One opened a portal in the ruins of the ancient city Ba'rok Nor through which he summoned vast legions of horrific undead creatures from the abyss. With his cursed armies he swept across the land like a plague; leaving destruction, famine, and misery in his wake. It was not until the Guardians, a coalition of the greatest warriors from across the land, stood united agaisnt the forsaken armies as the last true defense of the heavens, was the Dark One defeated and forced back into the stronghold of Ba'rok Nor. There he has slumbered, regaining his strength, rebuilding his armies, and waiting...waiting for his revenge.
Seven hundred years have past, and the peace and tranquility of the world are once again threatened. The Dark One has awoken, the shadows of his evil once again creep over the land, his armies prepare to march, and a war seven hundred years in the making will come to bear at last.
The only question is...which path will you choose?
SetupUnreal Legends is a pvp based node-match that is set up like an AoS. Two team-bases are connected by 3 paths which are lined with nodes. Teams are periodically granted points depending on what nodes they control and the winner will be whichever team reaches a pre-determined point limit first. The following is a rough sketch of the map outline (the number next to the node titles are however many points they will be granting periodically relative to the other nodes):
| Ideas |
| Custom character stats (including spellpower, spell crit, spell penetration, defense, magic defense, resilience, and melee critical strike) |
| Item recipe system |
| Item enchanting/socketing system (manually add bonuses to items) |
| Custom hero and mode selection screen |
| PvP-kill system that records damage done and grants kill recognitions to the appropriate player |
| A difficult and smart A.I. so gamers can play it solo |
| Automated or purchasable creep and node upgrades |
| Kill streaks w/ gold bonuses and sounds |
| Multiboard that tracks everything (including individual player stats, items being carried, ultimate CD, death timers, overall game stats, and more) |
| Balanced, brilliant, and visually spectacular abilities that do everything from causing you to sprout giant animated angelic wings to consuming entire landscapes in lush jungle or horrific infernoes, to slowing time itself |
| A beautiful and stunning terrain like no other in its genre |
