It isn't much pressure, I just feel that the project needs to be started before we will be able to get much done.

we could combine my story and dragon lance's story...

Tides of Darkness:
A man there was, a master of killing, and a wild ranpaging destroyer.  In service to the Holy Curch of Dawn, he was the Pope's favorite weapon.  However, in his knowledge of their inner workings, his fate was sealed.  The three cardinals of  made a plan to have him killed.  A barage of air ships and wariors turned their blades and bombs upon him...and his forces were desicrated.
In a hidden labratory in the town of New Vara, the recovered body was just another experiment in cybornetics, little did they now who it was they had snatched.  In a stasis cell, body slowly healing, he was one of the few who survived the death outside...


After the day of black rains, a lot of the people died. We heard reports it was a vapor toxin...but nobody seems to know why we were hit. Well, the survivors pulled together and have been living in this small outpost ever since...we have a few air ships and weapons. Well, the good news is I managed a job with the north eastern mercinaries, they call themselves the Northen Storm. I'm not going to get much money starting out, but I should be able to get enough to pay for mom and sis to get better medical treatment in a mounth or two. Hell, I may be able to afford to get an eye replacement some day...you know, there was some kind of research plant back in the town.  They were getting pretty good at simple cybornetics...and dad used to work there before he fell ill.  I told mom I took the job because the money is better than anything around here, but I mostly am hoping I get the chance to avenge whoever attacked us.

A dual story line...well, one character's story intertwines with a completely diffrent character and the end up fighting together by the end of the game.  That'd be cool, as far as weapons...the normal final fantasy weapons (swords and magic canes and such) as well as some mechanical weapons (guns and cybernetics) would be neat.  What do you think?

As per tie, I used the following code to come to Science Fiction Role Play Game

-prgmA-
:randInt(0,1
:If Ans:Pause "FANTASY
:If not(Ans:Pause "SCIFI
:


there was a random chance either way...and I could not predict the outcome (IOW...random enough for me)

Any chance of space jump (double jump), spider ball (sticky wall clibing morph ball), and/or spider jump (jump horizontaly infinitely?)

also...could you beef the weapon up, it hitting only one space is anoying

well, we had to write a story to prompt in creative writing...then pass it off to the next person so they could work on it more. Well, I tend to write some greusome stuff...and on most of them I did...but on the last pass off, I got a story about a guy and a girl dating. I couldn't resist...I wrote this:

"Nathan had asked Rachale if they could go to study, when asked what for, he claimed anatamy class. While he may have wanted to learn, his mind was far from on class...though it was surely on anatomy. As the night progressed, he felt the urge to feel...to explore...to touch places he would never dare to touch. The candles burned down and they began to kiss, and the more he kissed the more he burned inside. His long dark tounge found its way down her throat, and he found his hands undressing her, and she him. Nathan took Rachale into his sinewy arms and held her in embrace, his muscles bulged and rippled as he held her to him. He wrapt him self around her, and then inside her...their sighs let way to moans of joy and pleasure, anouncing their love to the walls around them. They lay together on the cold floor, far from cold."

and I had to read the story...youd never believe the look on the teacher's face. Her comment was: "...um, lets move on."  It was awsome...the whole class was in fits of laughter...and the girl who started the story was a bright shade of red.

Well, would any one be upset if we just pushed the end of the vote to now?  I suggest we just take a pure sci-fi theme, and move on.  We should try and tackle this quickly so it doesn't fall apart.  We know it is going to be an rpg...so to get our project rolling lets finish fleshing this out.  If any one else wants to propose a story, go ahead:

*if sci-fi*
Story and title proposal:
title:Cold Tides
story: after the day of black rains, a lot of the people died.  We heard reports it was a mercury based toxin...but nobody seems to know how that could be.  Well, the survivors pulled together and have been living in this small outpost ever since...we have a few air ships but only a handful of steam suits.  Well, the good news is I managed a test job with the north eastern mercinaries, I'm not going to get much more than a stripped down unit, but I should be able to get enough to pay for mom and sis to get better medical treatment. Hell, I may be able to afford to get an eye replacement some day...

Story Synopsis: the empire attacks your outpost and kills everyone including your mother and sister, you pilot steam suit mecha, fight the empire in their main offensive then move to destroy the rest of them and learn they are just one of many military fronts for a giant group who were the ones responsible for the black rain and all of the murder and it would cliff hang there, Suits have steam as a power source, and their are advanced mechinical devices and derigibles.  Or not, post your own ideas too.

*if fantasy*
we could make a reing of legends (with kev's consent) illusiat (" ) a FF or something else obviously

Having subroutines for very specific purposes means like one to handle the walking enine, one for map loading, one for battles, one in which to store all speech routines.  I plan no more than 7 coded program (non-data) though it may need to go up a little depending on complexity

Also...put some 2 wide blocks in there as you can't look a direction without moving...
