Title: Catalyst - Chapter 1: Initiation (last update, 01/22/08)
Post by: tSwitch on January 03, 2008, 07:49:23 AM
Catalyst
Chapter 1: Initiation

---
The veil 'tween planes draws thin
as the coming of the true draws near
those with no shadows within
that shall be the dark priestess' fear
---
thus has it been written
passed down through the age
what the Catalyst begins
the true shall bring to end
---


Story
Many planes exist in this wide existance of ours.  Some stranded...disconnected, others, who's fates are intertwined, people destined to journey from one land to the next, traversing the stars and becoming legend...

The time has come...a legend to be forged and a battle to be faught...age old tales of might and justice...power and honor...shall be made real.
Terra shall remain strong as the true are awakened and take hold of their destiny...

So much for a normal day in the back alleys of a burnt out city eh?

Features
The character customization system is deep.  By control of character statistics (through a point level system) you are able to dictate what weapons and armor are available to the characters, and with skills on said equipment, what abilities they have.  You can customize your party to fit nearly any situation, as many skills are universally available through the equipment.
