Blade Fiction is a non-commercial game. It is a story about the end of the Ancient world, told through the eyes a special class of warriors: The Amazons.
Please note this game is for mature players. It contains profanity and adult themes (but no nudity.)
With this game I wanted to focus on the story and world building, and avoid bloating the game with unnecessary features (i.e. I don't know how to code.) I worked on the game for several years and am very excited to show others now that it's completed!
Story
(Very) loosely based on Ancient history during the Archimedean period, this game involves conflict between the Greek City-states, the Scythian nomads, and the fledgling Persian Empire. Myth and history blend to create alternate history, leading up to the epic Persian invasion of Greece. Discover what role the Amazons played in this mythic conflict!
This game takes inspiration from games like Saga Frontier and Final Fantasy 7, and anime such as Claymore.
Players can choose between three main characters and play a 2-part scenario for each: (1)Ainia, newly reincarnated as an Amazon with no memory of her past life; (2)Basileus, a top-ranking Amazon who lives as a man in Greece; (3)Helena, a rogue Amazon secretly behind the rise of powerful ruler: Darius the Great. Amazons do not age, and so each story segment can happen hundreds of years apart.
Play through each campaign and witness how these forgotten warriors played a part in end of the ancient world...
Characters
Ainia
Apparent Age: 25
Class: Mercenary
Moon Spirit: Dione
Amazon Rank: 164 (The lowest rank)
A young woman recently reincarnated as an Amazon. She remembers almost nothing about her previous life, except for one thing: she killed herself. Naïve, timid, and shy, everyone can see she's not cut out to be an Amazon warrior. Will she prove them all wrong, and find a place for herself in this world? And will she rediscover the person she's been running from: herself?
Basileus
Apparent Age: 36
Class: Archer
Moon Spirit: Miranda
Amazon Rank: 9
The Number 9 Amazon cares nothing for the Amazon Covenant. Desiring to be free and live his truth as a man, Basileus returns to Greece to work as mercenary for hire. During the Greek city-state wars, he meets a beautiful woman in the woods and falls in love. The pair are separated and Basileus vows to find her again. Will he ever find the mysterious woman in the woods? Can he save her from a past she refuses to reveal?
Helena
Apparent Age: 29
Class: Mage
Moon Spirit: Dysnomia
Rank: 7
A powerful Amazon long thought dead, Helena has returned from the shadows. She rescues fellow Amazon Derinoe from an Arab prison with one purpose: to build an elite army. One strong enough to crown a man king. Derinoe watches Helena orchestrate the rise of Darius the Great, testing their friendship. How far will Helena go to create an empire? And where do her loyalties truly lie?
