=========Children Of The Sin=========
Characters.
Lance
Age: 16
Gender: Male.
Weapon: His Father's sword.
Bio: When he was but a young boy a terrible fate was bestowed upon him. It was his birthday, the happiest time for him: it was a time when his family was finally all together. They were finally able to spend time with one and other. Seeing as how his father was usually always away from home and his mother was busy with other things...they did not spend much time together, at all.
It was going to be a suprise: the sword in which Lance was fascinated with. Sure, swords were a bit dated...but Lance seemed to always prefer them. It was his fathers: a sword in which held many stories and secrets, buffed up and completely redone to suit yet many years more. Lance had been sent to town. His home was away from the rather small town, near a lake which held crystal-clear water and was the perfect place for boating, trouting, and many more activities. It was more peaceful there.
However...when he arrived home he was indeed granted a great suprise. A suprise which surpassed all other gifts in his life. One in which he would never forget. The grotesque sight of his parents mangled corpse lay before him. The room was stained with their blood: red rivers of death ran along the floor from their decapitated bodies to form larger pools of the substance. On the floor, under the severed limbs was a banner marked with the words "Happy birthday" on it. There had also been a cake on the table, which was by now, blood-covered and ruined. He had been shocked. He could not move, breath, think, anything. Everything had left him. However, he managed to pull himself together enough to run screaming back to town for aid. But of course..it was already to late for his parents.
He got help. But he later thought it useless. He was given the word he was meant to get as a suprise. One of the villagers offered to clean it fr him..it was the least they could do. They offered to help him more, but were rejected. Lance was now forever stricken with that image engraved into his head. Burnt there, staying to forever torture and torment him whenever he dared to dream.
Later, when the war started, Lance was forced to join. And thus begins his story.
=================
Aika
Age: 15
Gender: Female.
Weapon: Gun.
Bio: Aika is but a young girl who was taken from her family. When the war began the soldiers from the GEN society tore through her city, killing everyone who was of no use to them and taking those who were strong enough to fight with them. It just so happened that Lance had been there. Lance stopped the soldiers from killing her and brought her back to the base himself. However...he could not do the same for her family, seeing as they were dead quite a while before he arrived. She often wonders what his reason was. Whenever she tries to ask him he ignores her. She usually gets fed-up with Lance, but still sticks by him. She is currently in custody of the GEN society. (GEN being short for Generation).
=================
Anite
Age: 23
Gender: Female.
Weapon: Creta and swords. She refuses to use new-generation technology.
Bio: Anite is a member of TESTAMENT. This group thinks of the world as a living, breathing organism and refer to it as "Mother Gaia." They believe that if humans interfere to much with it, then it will defend it's self and wipe everything out. So, because of this, they are strongly against the GEN Society and their beliefs.
Anite was sent into the HQ of GEN in order to retrieve and send back information from GEN to TESTAMENT. She is a sneaky, powerful and strong-minded young woman who will do anything in her power to please her superiors and bring down GEN.
=================
Ren
Age: 7-8 in appearance. In reality he is around 2-3 years of age.
Gender: Male.
Weapon:
Bio: The youngest member of the GEN Society. He is one of Einte's creations: a homunculus or sorts. He, unlike the others, refuses to fight . This is usually suspected to be because of his defection. He was flawed when he was created and needs a special creta in order to regulate everything in his body. This stone is embedded into his chest, and is one of his great weaknesses. He is usually seen gallivanting about the HQ with Aika, trying to keep her company. To Aika, he is the only one worth talking to at the HQ.
=====================================
Villains
Einte Terrin
Age: 38
Gender: Female.
Weapon: Strong physical and mental abilities.
Bio: (Only a short bio can be given here without giving away to much.) Einte, while she was younger, studied alchemy with her best friend Blain. Blain, of course, was considered to be her boyfriend.
However...one glorious evening they had both finally managed to crack the secret: the secret to creating the philosophers stone. Once this news got into the hands of of TESTAMENT, however, they quickly took matters into their own hands. Fearing for the future of their mother, they were quickly ordered by their leader, Wilheim, to hunt down and exterminate the two alchemists before they put their theory's into action.
Einte managed to escape Wilheims grasp...but by the sacrifice of Blain. She was stricken with sorrow and guilt, feeling that it was her fault that everything happened. She regretted everything. But then it finally hit here...if she was to truly create the stone then she could bring him back. She tried to do so. She even created a homunculus just in-case it didn't work out right...which it did not. Her experiments with the stone failed and she was badly wounded. However, she was able to transfer her soul to that of the Homunculus and obtained an image that sort of resembled her former one. Doing this, however, drove her to the brink of insanity: If she could do this continuously...then she would forever try the experiment until she managed to bring Blain back.
However, like most people given the taste of power and eternal life, Einte soon forgot about this goal and went on to test her experiments further. This led to the creation of GEN.
Wilheim
Age: late 30's.
Gender: Male
Weapon: Strong mental abilities.
Bio: Leader of TESTAMENT, Wilheim seeks to bring the secret of the philosophers stone into his grasp so that he can maintain the balance and protect mother gaia from harm. He is overwhelmingly strong, but usually does not show it unless it is a dire situation. He sent Anite into the GEN society in order to gather information for his use.
Wilheim is not considered 'evil' by anyone in particular. However, he is placed in the villains category of the story.
========================================================================================
Story
Lance, a young boy, lost his parents at a young age. This nightmare forever pesters him, gnawing at him, hoping that he will eventually cave in and submit to the pain. While growing up he shunned everyone who ever tried to help him. He was traumatized by what he saw that day and every time he dared to dream it came back to haunt him. He had been afraid...afraid that something terrible might happen again if he was ever to get close to anyone else...so he just kept to himself.
However, when the war comes about, Lance is forcefully made to join the GEN Society (GEN being short for Generation.) A society that wished to advance the world and forcefully shove it into the future. The boy was made kill and to show no mercy to those opposed GEN, so he eventually was attuned to the sins in which he was made commit: they were part of his daily life now.
However...while out on one certain mission he happened to come across a young girl: Aika. When he saw her something snapped inside of him, it fixed it's self and for one instant showed him something which led him to save her. Aika was just as confused as he was, but was never able to pry the answer from him. Lance was able to convince their leader to not kill Aika, so she took custody inside of the HQ, making friends with one of the children there. The child was no normal one though, he was a walking weapon, one of the leader's tools. She saw something in him though...something that no one else had. He made her feel comfortable and sometimes helped her get to Lance on some occasions. Even to this day though, Aika still has not been granted her answer.
TESTAMENT, an anti-GEN society that was formed ages before GEN sent one of their best into the innards of the GEN HQ in order to retrieve information and send it back to their leader: Wilheim. TESTAMENT was a group that thought the world was a living, breathing being and that if GEN continued to do what they did then the earth would punish all humans and purge it's self of it's sickness.
Now, both the past and future will collide to unfold an even greater story. The story of a boy and a girl who are the keys to mankind's survival and the story of a love that was torn apart by hope.
And so it begins....
(Well...comments are appreciated. =D. Thanks! :))
Well, it all finally ready. (Sorry for the double post..=( )
I know someone called Lance (he's an idiot). Anyway back to the game, having to lose both parents at a young age always turns the main character cool, calm and ani-social. Wonder if he is gonna be like that. I'm not bother the read all of the story (read about half, my eyes are tired) but it sounds alright so far, hope to be seeing screens and character images.

http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k52/YashaKodachi/Einte.jpg
It wasnt drawn by me, but by someone else who agreed to do it for me =D.
Any more replies people?
I ned to know things like:
-How original are the character's?
-If so, which is the most original?
-What are the bad/good parts of the story?
etc.. I NEED to know everything before I start.
I love your ideas but could you please post some screen shots?
I shall.
But, for now, does anyone else have any comments?

thats a villain?
looks like they are about to cry and are in need of help...
Thats what my friend said =O Lol.
She is crazy. Mentaly insane. SO I thought that the look that was given to her suited her. =D
lol make her look more evil/dark and less like somebody you have to rescue
Meh. That would mean more touble for the person who drew it. Besides..I think that it'll do.
I still might need a sketch of Wilheim =\ but it's INSANELY hard to find someone who will draw a character for you. Even if you ask them the nicest way possble, some people think that your demanding it. =\
I love female villains... way to go!
Post some screenshots or risk this thread becomming locked.
Thanks =D
Well..uh..here is some kind of screeny. I'm thinking about using it..I don't really know yet =\

lol find somebody who takes a high grade art course and ask them to do a sketch for you
=( No one wants to. But I suppose it's not really an easy thing to do either..
Well, sometimes people are just uncomfortable taking requests, no matter how skilled as an artist they are... I can sympathize with that. I hardly have time to draw my own characters... and I would be uncomfortable if I saw someone else using my art.
Well..I don't really now how uncomfortable it would be....I'd love to see people using mine. AS LONG as I was given credit. I would definitly use my own if I was good enough. However...I'm not.
(sorry for the double post people.)
Well, here is a title screen. I think that it's pretty good.
