What is Arilen's Tale?
Arilen's Tale is my newest cinematic. It takes place in the kingdom Braviel. Braviel, during the time of the cinematic is in a civil war, between the Mages and Wizards who control Braviel with a group of Necromancers that worship a Demon.
Story
The Main Character in the cinematic is the leader of a group from a small village, called Arilen, that searchs ancient ruins for Gold and Jewls. When him and his group are searching a Ruin, they find a very powerful Orb. Thinking that it will be worth a lot of Gold, they take it. However what they do not relize, is that there is a secret Cult, who worship a demon who was banished long ago, needs the Orb to summon their master to the world again.

The Terrain has been done for the first few scenes of the Cinematic, and some of the Cameras have been done for the first few scenes as well. All that needs to be done is finish of the last few scenes and the triggers before I release the first part of the cinematic.

Characters
| Arilen Arilen is the leader of the group of adventuerers who happen to stumble upon the Orb, that the Necromancers need to open a portal for the Demon to come through. He is a skilled warrier and leader, and makes a living by going out with some other men from the village and hunt for Gold and Jewls that are in the Ancient Ruins scattered accross the coast. Arilan carries a Magical Sword, called Steelwind, which he found in one of the first ruins he ever went into to search for treasure. Arilen comes from a small village along the coast called Kimana Village. Him and his treasure hunters rest there when they are not out looking for treasure. He also protects the village whenever it is attacked by Bandits or creatures. |
| Amaroth Amaroth is the only Wizard in Kimana Village. He goes with Arilen on his treasure hunts incase they come accross any Magical Barriers, and incase one of them gets wounded. Amaroth's main job in the Village is healing, but he also knows some powerful spells, that are useful for fighting off invaders. Although Amaroth's does a lot of healing and destruction spells, the thing he has always been good at is destroying Magical Barriers, which is especialy useful when Arilen and his treasure hunters are raiding an old ruin, and part of it is protected by a magical barrier. |
| Galwich Galwich was once a powerful Wizard, but his mind has for long been effected by Nulonarak, and he has turned to Necromancy. Galwich is the leader of the Cult that worships Nulonarak, and wants to free him from his prision. Galwich is thought to be at the Cults secret shrine, but no one has any idea that shrine could be. He has become extremly powerful, mostly from the power given to him from Nulonarak, and is capable of summoning some of the most powerful Demonic Creatures. The Necromancer is currently at war with the Wizards who control Braviel, but has had no success attacking their capatil. |
| Orayil Orayil is the Archmage, and leader of the council that rules over Braviel. Orayil is espetialy famous for his Alchemy, and he has made a number of potions, some creating a shield around you, some making you invisible and some even extending your life. He is also known for some of the destructive spells he has made. Although he only teachs them to a few people, who he is friends with, they are extremly powerful spells. The Wizard has spent most of his life studying Magic, and because of that he has become an expert at it. He has become almost 100% commited through the past few years to hunting down Galwich. He believes that the kingdom will never really be safe unless Galwich is dead.
[r] Nulonarak is a Demon, that has great power. Thousands of years ago, when the Ancient Elves ruled the world they trapped him in a prision, so that he could no longer threaten the world.
Although the prision drains most of his power, he was able to effect the mind of a Wizard, making him believe there was nothing else more important then releasing Nulonarak from his prision. He then created a Cult, that worshiped the Demon, and would stop at nothing to release him. Nukonarak gave most of his power to the Cult, so that they can summon Denomic creatures, and that gives them more power then most normel wizards could ever dream off. Nukonarak now waits in his Prision, for the time that the Cult will release him and he will walk the earth again. |
Locations
| Kimana Village Kimana Village is the village that Arilen and Amaroth live in. The Village is built along the coast, so they can reach a number of the ruins around the village in no more then a couple of hours. The Village, because of its weak defenses and the Gold and Jewls that are brought back from the Ruins Kimana is a common target for Bandits and Thieves. However the Wizard who lives in the city, Amaroth has developed a spell, that while it can not protect the town from attacks, he can create a Magical Barrier protecting their Gold and Jewls from Bandits and Thieves. |
| Ithdomor Ruins The Ithdomor Ruins are were the Orb, that Arilen found is being kept hidden. The Ancient Elves built it as a Fortress to protect the Orb long ago, but now that its wall have worn away and its defenders passed travelers are free to come into the fortress and take whatever they find. The Ruin is also rumoured to be the Prision of Nulonarak, this is because wizards who have traveled there have said that they sense great power coming from deep beneath the earth, but this has never been proven, because the deeper parts of the fortress has been protected by an invincible magical barrier. The ruin has almost been completly cleared of treasure, but being one of the richest fortresses in its age, many adventuers still travel there hoping to find a porition of those richs. |
