Title: First game, outline
Post by: Andromeda on March 22, 2006, 11:51:25 PM
I've just started work on my first game, and I would like to know your thoughts about my outline.

Legend of Sol: The Blade         

Important Mentions:

High Court of Zaria- This is the ruling body of Zaria. While
maintaining a Republic standard for the past 800 years, the people of
Zaria are suspicious of the High Court and its recent methods of
action. The people are fearful of a slip into a dictatorial regime.  

Elite Guard of Zaria- The dominating and peacekeeping force with
numerous posts throughout Zaria (main chamber located in Eldrenicae).
Formed in the 4th Age by the High Court, the Elite Guard has been a
respected and honored force. However, the High Court's recent Search
and Seizure Act, which allows the Elite Guard to search and seize
property from the homes of citizens, has people fearing the Elite Guard.

Characters:

Cyrus-        Age: 25
                Occupation: Former Captain of the Zaria's Elite Guard
                Class: Striker
                Hometown: Dolbarry
                Favored weapon(s): Medium swords
                Background info: Born and raised in Dolbarry, at the age of 19 Cyrus set off for Eldrenicae to become one of Zaria's Elite Guard.
Surpassing all his fellow students in the academy, he quickly pushed
through the ranks and became 2nd in commmand (Captain) of Zaria's Elite
Guard. On his 3rd year of duty Cyrus was sent with a taskforce to
retreive a map that was "stolen property" of the High Court. The
individual leading the taskforce wanted to use force to retreive the
map, but Cyrus was apalled by the suggestion and wouldn't allow it. By
not following through with orders, Cyrus was arrested, essentially
framed, and was imprisoned for 2 years. Our story begins thus...   

Jorgan-    Age: 28
    Occupation: Sailor
    Class: Pirate
    Hometown: Gredgemont
    Favored weapon(s): Light swords
    Background info: (told throughout game)

Krixsta- Age: 22
    Occupation: Member of the Wisping Willow Guild
    Class: Mage
    Hometown: Unknown
    Favored weapon(s): Nothing material, but rather magic
    Background info: (told throughout game)

Varthos- Age: 45
    Occupation: Blacksmith
    Class: Gladiator
    Hometown: Eldrenicae
    Favored weapon(s): Axes/Hammers
    Background info: (told throughout game)

De'langri- Age: 376
      Occupation: None
      Class: Ranger
      Hometown: Unknown
      Favored weapon(s): Bows/Light swords
      Background info: (told throughout game)

         Major Cities

Dobi Village- Small village that is content with its place in the
world. None of the villagers have any care of Zaria and the troubles
outside their fenced homes.

Dolbarry- It is a crossroads town connecting Port Gredgemont and
Softwind. They say Dolbarry has been around for as long as 500 years.
Several weapon shops and a unique armor shop can be found here.

Port Gredgemont- 2nd largest city in all of Zaria, as well as being the
largest port in Zaria. Many shops and trade centers are sprawled along
the portside for incoming sailors.

Softwind- Guild town. Softwind has been around for centuries, perhaps
even a thousand years. This is every adventurers dream and main point
of interest; to be honored in the halls of their aspiring Guild.
Softwind is home to the Wisping Willow Guild, which has been around for
about 672 years, the Gladiator Guild, which is 802 years old (or so the
records state), and the Black Coat Club, which is a relatively new
group (dating back only about 134 years). The Black Coat Club, although
not officially a guild, is a group formed by independents that broke
off from both the Wisping Willow Guild and the Gladiator Guild.    

Crescent Temple- This temple's age is unknown, but scholars speculate
that it dates to the beginning of time. Speculation also aroused the
theory that this is where the altar of Sol resides. Unfortunately, no
soul has ever traversed inside because of the magical seal that binds
the temple locked. It is said that one would need the Blade of Sol
itself to get rid of the magical seal.

Eldrenicae- The capital city of Zaria, housing the High Court (ruling
body of Zaria) and Zaria's Elite Guard. This is the oldest city in the
land of Zaria. Home to many shops, trade centers, and specialty
vendors, this city has much to offer. Eldrenicae is also the only city
with actual written history dating back 3000 years.

Port Ironmouth- Respected port city and trade center. While not as big
as Gredgemont, it holds its own unique place within Zaria. In fact,
this port is the main shipping channel between Zaria and Borgin'el, the
Elven homeland.
