[General] - "Story"

[-Kobas-]

Shadows of the Past Single Player RPG created by -Kobas- After the Great Wars ended, a time of peace and prosperity reigned the land for two thousand years. The great heroes of old were forgotten, and ancient cities and forts were abandoned. However, it would seem that evil wasn't ready to be defeated just yet and so, Darkness is making its move once again! Fear and insanity produced by it has started taking a toll upon all living creatures of the land; animals went on a rampage, heartlands are in chaos, and with the Light faded away from people's hearts, will there be anyone to stand up to the Darkness once again...? ------- ----------------------------------------------------------- ------ Part I In the Beginning Hero arrives to camp and his life mission start there. First of all he talk to villagers and guards, he meet strange old man named "Anaxes" in town hall. Anaxes will be 1st big player in whole story, he will show you main story missions. 1st mission will be to test champion strength and skill, he need to kill shadow creature named, "Shadow Wolf" located somewhere in Dul Lorkhan Forest. After finished quest player will require few missions from Camp Captain (Skilled Guard named Smith). After exploring Misty Cave and killing some skeletons Anaxes will once again request hero presence. This time he start to explain situation in their world. He reveal ancient secrets and send hero to his life mission, mission to find and bring back to him 5 great ancient relics, each one posses huge power, together they can be ultimate weapon for force who use them. But there is risk as well. Last time when relics was used, last Elf Commander used it to defeat Shadow Lord, more than 70% of whole world was destroyed, ruined. Only strong and really powerful warriors can use relic power in right way! I mentioned Elves. Elves left "Wild Lands" and went to their homeland, after defeat in the greatest battle in ancient times from Shadow Lord. Only few elves left to fight on side with humans. Finally after this story and explanation about relics, hero start his journey. He will first search for earth relic below earth surface (Tearrain will be created in form of caves and dungeons, such as ruined towers or prisons)... Part II Rise of Shadow Lord Stories about new Shadow Lord are true, forces of darkness raised once again. This time maybe even more powerful than last time. There is no elves anymore, human kingdoms are gone, only ruins left. Hero left camp some time ago now, player is able to explore new areas, gain more and more quests, items and so on. Anaxes will reveal himself few more times and reveal story more and more each time. At the other side, we will meet first bad guy, first dark and really powerful warrior, "Vampire" it is. Unmatched speed, powerful attack and strong spells. Player will fight few min against this dude, only strong hero builds will survive Finally after some time Vampire is dead, but wait it was only illusion, it's magic more powerful than everything else in this word, power to control duplicate of yourself, damn that's must be awesome. Hero must grown a lot stronger before really facing this guy in person once again. But wait another agent of darkness come, this time magic related vampire, warrior of extraordinary abilities. Instead of illusions this one will manipulate with hero stats and fight against you Epic shit if you ask me He will be able to take your weapon for example, so you need to pick it once again, he will remove your spells and make you vulnerable, remove, steal buffs and so on. This 2nd Vampire will come from another clan than first one, still there will be stories that ultimate shadow lord can use both powers, powers to manipulate with human attributes and powers to multiple them, making him the most powerful creature ever Part III Ancient Relics I am working on it Part IV Darkness End I am working on it ------- ----------------------------------------------------------- ------ Shadows of the Past - Single Player RPG created by -Kobas-

Biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiig spoiler
Well guys that's a story in few lines of text.
I will add cinematics and more text, more shit to map to make it good.

Please comment, give suggestions.
Be free to fix fail English
Oh if you find something unclear or just want to find that "thing" in info table let me know

 

[-katana-]

umm i found a few grammar mistakes :\

 

[Tleno]

Hmmm, Elves as ancient wise race that died out or just not seen by anyone for long time, vampires are evil... nothing unstandart... but looks intresting.

 

[-Kobas-]

Hehehehe everything will be explained

So basicly what a good fantasy game needs is.

*atleast 3 diffrent friendly races and you would probebly want one of them to be humans.
*Magical creatures like dragons(almost necesery), orcs, goblins, minotaurs, centaurs and so on.
*Diffrent religions for every race that are unics in their own ways.
*A powerfull race that strives for death and death only and also thats race exact opposit with other words a powerfull race that strives to protect life. (Humans, Dwarfs & Elves are not able to fill this place since they're mortals)
*Arguings betwen the diffrent races that the hero needs to set aside to gather all races and deafet evil.

All you suggested is pretty cliche. Esspecially dragons, which are a manifest of Overratedness in Fantasy universes.
Humans as only mortal civilized race works well. Same for othee suggestions.

 

[Razosh]

You want to know what race is the most overrated race ever? HUMANS. Anyway try to ask any WoW player if dragons are necesery. Those who just enjoys killing will say yes and those of us who are lorelovers will say YES,YES, YEEEEEEEEEEES. And seriusly what kind of imagination do you have if all you want in a RPG game is humans?

 

[-Kobas-]

lol don't worry I will use Dragons as well, after all the most powerful items will be some like:
Dragon Mail, Staff of Dragons etc etc...

 

[Tleno]

Still, you know, the overall style of SotP just wouldn't fit with such high amounts of different creatures and races as there are in WoW.
Plus, including the overall current lore, it would be quite intresting if elves or some other race would be said to be extinct aeons ago, and though you would only find some ancient elven ruins and artifacts, but at late game, you would meet them yourself, but their race wouldn't just have separate nation that's known to human nation or share a one nation with humans... you know, they would hide from humans, have some kind of hiden cities, and would come to aid your character only when they would realsie he's the only one who can stop the return of evil.

 

[-Kobas-]

They left this world 2000 years ago, only things that left are ruins and lost artifacts, few elves stay just to fight against darkness in ultimate battle where they defeated enemy. No one knows what happened to elves survivors after battle, some say that they returned home with last elf transport ship, some say that few of them still hunt darkness somewhere out there.

Maybe will our hero actually meet some of them, maybe will he learn some awesome abilities from them, maybe just find runes, artifacts and so on, I won't tell you much

 

[Razosh]

We can discuss this untill we die and the only thing we tell from this is that some people wants dragons and magic and some people dont. I see no reason to continue this argument so you can spam on whith this if you want but i'll not answer anymore
