I am up to any suggestions.
Also, I will not be using face images for this game because I can't draw, I haven't found someone willing to draw 8 faces per character and all face generators I've found suck.
To Come: More Classes & Races, Area Names + More.
_______
Progression: Very little
Story:
In "Rune," you follow the story between a mysterious man known as a Rune Blader and Ashe, a young girl who finds the Rune Blader in the forest one day...
(Pretty much, I can't word the story right. It's all explained at the beginning of the game, so no worries.)
Race & Class System:
Races: (All classes are based off “Humans”)
Human - Humans are the general races of the game. Human’s hold average on all abilities and gain the special ability “Human’s Intervention” at level 16. Human Intervention is an ability all humans learn which is a powerful strike that absorbs a key item that begins to drop off monsters during the end middle of Chapter 1.
Elf - Elves are a very quick and agile race. They hold approximately 2% more Agility then humans, but lack that in -1% Strength & Defense. Elves are generally Hunters, Rangers, Nature Magic Users and on very rare occasions a melee class (Warrior). Elves learn “Wisdom of the Natural” at level 14, which absorbs the same key items that use all other race abilities. Wisdom of the Natural increases the magic abilities by the entire party (Spirit) by 50.
Dongbai - Dongbai are a unique class passed down through generations through the beliefs their all-mighty god was a wolf. Dongbai’s hold much more strength then humans (aprox. 7% more), as well as hold an addition 1% Agility to Humans, but lack 1-2% in all other stats. Dongbai’s learn “Howl” at level 16, which increases Attack of the Dongbai by 250.
Ancients - A very rare race that hardly exist anymore. Ancients are technically humans, but they study through a lot of different resources in their life time and they believe they are not humans. Ancients have higher health and defense (both equal to aprox. 1% higher). Ancients learn a special attack as well known as “Destruction.” It’s a quick swipe of the blade that ignores the defense of the opponent, as well as is a guarantee hit.
Winged People - Winged People are a very secluded race. Living on a remote mountain located on the equator, they stay to themselves, only leaving when need be. Winged People on practice the arts of Sword + Shields and Bows, but are not Warriors nor Rangers. Instead, they are one class known as Sol or Lun and use both as they please. As a race, their stats in both strength and spell power is relatively high, but as Sol their magical ability raises and Lun their physical strength. Winged People learn no race-specific spells.
Classes:
~Special Classes:
Rune Blader - The main class of this game. Your main character isn’t a Runer, but the main actual character of this story is. This class is a secret, you guys can figure it out once the game releases.
Akh’chin - Akh’chin are a strange tribal folk in the southern part of the world. This game is primarily in the northern part of the world, Toketsu Tundra, but you will meet a young girl who is an Akh’chin. Akh’chin’s, also just known as Ahks, are humans who worship a spirit of a bird. They share all special abilities from the for races above, as well as two special abilities. As a consequence, though, they only learn the basic healing spell.
Ashe - Not really a class, just your main character’s class since she’s the only real important member of the game.
