Now that we've settled on a setting, we need to figure out who the main character will be. I will summarize the setting below: Modern->Futuristic Fantasy Dream
The story begins in a modern setting and the player gets transported to a fantasy world. Things to include when suggesting the protagonist: -Name -General description (Reference pictures would be nice) -Personality -How he/she reacts to the fantasy world -Other details I'm having trouble thinking of a protagonist at the moment, but I'll post one later.

Name: Feranis age: 16 She is skinny and around 5"6. She wears her hair in one long braid and has big round glasses. Maybe I'll draw a picture later if I have time. Feranis is a day dreamer. She is a bit socialy akward but likes to make friends when she can. unforutnatly for her, people find her weird so she spends most of her time alone. She gets good grades but has been sliping up as of late. (reasons why can be thought of later, like weird dreams or a crush) um... thats all I have for now. I think a girl would be better for this type of story. personaly, when it comes to stories like this, I think girls play better leads than boys. (Im thinking the mangas "Magical Knight Ryearth compared to Mar or something like that) i need spell check.... crying Edit: Blam!  I've fallen in love with this character

Linis, I like your Idea for the main character.
Sounds like a pretty good character! Best of all, not some angsty spiky-haired emo... guy...
But I have an Idea too.
__________________________________________
Name: Sesh (S-ay-SH)
Age:16
A Young boy who has short black hair, tall, skinny, and always wear a silver chain around his neck that he got from his father. He has dark red eyes.
Although a friendly and rather carefree person, he doesn't hang around people too often, just with a few people he calls his friends. He knows he has a good life, but finds it all rather boring, wishing for something exciting to happen. He always seemed to have this feeling that he would accomplish something great in his life.
I will try and draw a little pic of him later...
___________________________________________
Depending on what we do with the story, I was thinking of having a twist that he was from this other world he visits.
Another one is that the main villian (Which we haven't created yet) could be his father/brother/mother/sister/SUPERSECRETALEEIINNZZZI mean, himself.
Yes Himself. Like say this world he visits, he finds doubles of many people from his world. His family, friends. And as a twist it could turn out the villian is His double.
Sound Interesting?

Jaranu Linis, I like your Idea for the main character. Sounds like a pretty good character! Best of all, not some angsty spiky-haired emo... guy... lol, sounds like the other character in my sig xp I like your Idea However, um do we really have a plot. Its hard to design character when a sure plot hasn't been confermed. The way I imagin things, this is a futuristic story were the main character is sent to a dream world. but what is this dream world like? A world were humans use mechs to fight off aliens or other humans colonized in space (I hope it is this one!) and also, I was thinking maybe there could be more than one main character. In Mega Man ZX Advent [NDS] there are two different characters ( a boy and a girl) and while there stories are slightly different, the plot of the game remains the same. we can even have a character select script like this onethe girl story would be more aimed towards girls and the boy character for boys. Using this system wouldnt be too hard also I assume. Only the intro and some diolog would be different. maybe there cold be 4 main characters. from the same world but there openinges and endings are different. If the game is under 2 hours or something like that, designing it shouldnt be too tedious and we can have mini teams working on character spesific things.

I find that a character can be very important to a story, which is why this is coming first. The character(s) actions will shape the storyline, and the storyline shapes the character(s), so it can work either way. We'll probably do the character in two parts - the basics and the details. This is the basic, and the details like where they're from, etc. will come with the details.
I do like the idea of having two characters, and it would fit into the two-game idea. For now, though, we'll assume there's one main character.

i have had this guys idea for a long time i drew him out ill need a scanner later alonge with his pic which i lost but remembered the drawing sweatdrop
-Name: renial brasche.
-General description: a 16 year old powerhousing barong practicioner, ((barong, giant swords shaped like cleavers used in fantasy style games but very uncommonly seen.)) he is seen with his hair straight shoulder length red hair wearing a green bandana covering pard of his hair a skintight red no-sleve shirt with a turtle neck style but made of fluff and tight blue jeans with skater shoes on, caution his weapon is his body length which is 5 ft 8 inch.
-Personality: calm but ambitious about everything, easily annoyed and very kindhearted but never really shown.
-How he/she reacts to the fantasy world : confused but yet calm at the same time also a bit shocked at the ammount of fighting is going on but remembers about his protection.
-Other details : is inlove with katrina a 15 year old girl who might end up being a party member but realizes after getting to the dream world he might never see her or get to ask her out until finally getting back to the real world when its in chaos finding out that the key to both worlds lie in thier bond.

No offence.... but he seems like a generic anime/rpg hero to me. and if he comes from the real world.... how is he already a barong practicioner? if a real human were to be sent into the future and there's war and chaos.... I think they wouldnt be so calm.

Ugh, there's so much color clash in his description. A green bandana with orange hair wouldn't look good. I'll start a poll for the character, and it will be the same deal as with the setting. It'll last 5 days, regardless of changes/additions. For now, we're voting on the first main character (if we choose to do more than one). What we'll do is finish one game and, if we choose to, start the next one afterwards so we're concentrated instead of splitting into two teams.
