Game 2
Final Fantasy – Legacies
NOTE - This is like the last FF game, except it takes place in the future, not the past. 😛
To those chosen by fate,
By the time you read this letter, I shall be no more. I have attained a great age, and I fear I have very little time left in this world. I leave behind this last word, so that you, who have felt destiny’s embrace, may be enlightened.
There is more to this world than meet the eye. On the surface, all appears calm and rational, but look beneath the veil, and you will see war. War that has been going for longer than mankind can remember. Every day, supernatural forces from the skies above and the pits below battle in secret for the dominion of this world. Using the bodies of mortals, they spread discord throughout the kingdoms, weakening alliances and awaking old feuds. The world remains ignorant, which only ensures the continuing madness.
Only the great crystal, whose brilliant light has protected our world for thousands of years, keeps the otherworldly forces at bay. Many have tried to destroy the crystal, or else attempted to harness its power, but all have failed. The crystal is too well protected, for it has the power to call forth its champions, the Crystal Guard – Heroes chosen by fate to defend the world from evil. Whenever the crystal senses danger, it cries out, summoning the guard to its chamber deep beneath the earth. The warriors, informed of their mission, set out to do the crystal’s will, unaware that destiny is pulling their strings.
As the new Crystal Guard, it is your duty to stop this otherworldly threat and bring peace to the world.
I leave this wisdom to you, knowing that my soul will now rest easy in the afterlife.
The Sage, Ashara.
It’s not much, but that’s the story.
You are the Crystal Guard, reincarnations of great warriors who have been called many times before by the great crystal to protect the world, and are called now to do so again.
You fight against the otherworldly races – Both the angel-like forces from Zion, and the demonic minions of hell. They inhabit the bodies of humans and monsters alike, and are very hard to kill.
You can be any FF class (black mage, white mage, dark knight, paladin, warrior, summoner, dragoon, mime, etc.) Keep in mind that by choosing a class, you inherit their weaknesses, as well as their strengths. You are also limited by equipment - For example, a black mage cannot wear heavy armor.
Rules
1. No godmodding. You cannot have an overly powerful character, and you cannot kill or control other people’s characters without their permission.
2. No metagaming. Your character cannot have knowledge that is not available to them in-game, even if you as a player have that knowledge.
3. Only 2 character per player MAX
4. Do not discuss characters and stuff in this thread. Wait until the game has been approved.
5. Make your posts nice and easy to read. It doesn’t matter how long your posts are, as long as the message gets across clearly. Minor spelling and grammar mistakes are allowed, but only if they are mistakes.
REGARDING ARMOR
Since this a futuristic FF game, equipment is a bit different from say, medieval. 😛
Character's can have whatever appearance you wish. For equipment, Guardians simply inherit the spirit of their ancient self, who did wear armor. The spirit will act as the armor. In other words, characters are still limited by 'equipment', but not by appearance. Make sense?
And if this game gets chosen I call dibs on a dragoon. 😉
