Aremen's Prophecy - Community Game Sign up!

author=Marrend
I'm adding up Preston's stat distribution total as 11 where the OP says you distribute 20. Was that done on purpose?


I'm assuming that that's because he's a joke character. I'll accept it this time, though that means we now have two old men with awful stats as joke characters. But eh, I'll try to make it work.

Alright, I have most of the characters sorted out and I sent a PMs to the characters finished (Except for the last two posters, I'll do it tomorrow). If I forgot anybody please send me a PM and I'll send you your character. I also updated the chart again and I'm working on some spreadsheets to reveal to everyone what the final characters classes and base stats will be.

I initially thought of leaving the sign-ups open indefinitely, because I thought this wouldn't catch on, but boy I was wrong. I feel forced to put an end date so this doesn't grow out of hand. I decided to mark the closing date at Friday 18 giving more than a full week of time since the start of this thread. So if you're interested, join before it's too late!

This looks interesting. So, are we going to decide what our characters do, too? Like actual roleplaying and interacting with the rest of the cast? Or are we just picking which one of the pre-made characters, with their pre-made stories, we want, and the creator is doing the rest?

Like, do I write this character's back story, or is it already decided? What about what they do in the actual game? Never done this before so just wondering. Thanks


You can go as in-depth as you want: backstory, personality, motivations, etc. The more the better. Sadly, no roleplay because that requires a whole lot of work and organization and the focus right now is to make a game. The story of the game is already decided too, so any consultation would be mostly to decide where in the story they would fit better and how they would react to certain events (for cutscenes and dialogues). Keep in mind that this is a relatively simple game so don't sweat it too much if you're having a hard time to come up with a good character!

Please pick another portrait, that one is already taken. Check the chart in the first post to see which ones are free.

I'm currently in the process of sorting out everything and sending PMs with the finished characters to their owners. For now, I updated character chart so you can easily know which ones have been picked and which ones are still available.

As a reminder, if you don't like the result you got you can always reroll another character (but only once).

The world is held in balance thanks to the powers of the Makers Crystals. Powerful and mysterious artifacts from the past that exude energy to the whole world. But soon, that balance will be disturbed by the Grandmak empire and its hunger for power. A small band of rebels works hard to trump their plans; the Ace Squad will not stop until the empire is stopped. Will you join their fight?

What is this?

Aremen’s Prophecy is a game made to celebrate the RMN community. With a lot of references and in-jokes plus the implementation of multiple free resources made by the community itself, all mixed with gameplay that focuses on resource management and strategic decisions. But most importantly, is the people that make up this community the most crucial part of it. Without the many contributions of dedicated people, RMN wouldn’t be here today. And so, I offer anyone interested to participate by creating your own character to be added to the game!

How I can participate?

Simple, just fill out the template posted at the end of this post and you’re already in. Be aware that I may ask further questions through DMs as the development of the game goes on, mostly to develop more the characters' personality and reactions to events. If you’re not interested in that last part is fine, though the character may turn a little flat.

You can create any character you want, be either an entirely new character, an old character from any other project you may have, or even just a direct self-insert. Just keep it mind that their backstories are subject to changes to fit the story better. Non-humans characters are allowed.

Can you tell us more about the game?

- It will be made on RPG Maker VX Ace.
- Inspired by Fire Emblem, but trying to adapt some of its mechanics into turn-based battles. Specifically: A large cast of characters to recruit, permadeath, random stats at level up, resource and risk management, and a few surprises here and there.
- Medium-short length, divided into 15 chapters of 5-10 mins of duration each one.
- It’ll use mainly the RTP, so it’s easier to set up and to integrate community resources, such as:
- It’ll use the RMN Music Pack!
- It takes a semi-serious tone, the story is important but there’s space for comic relief.
- Estimated release date: Hopefully before the end of the year.
- Signs ups are closed. Sorry!

Template:

Name: (You can choose between using your username or even create a new one)

Portrait: (Pick the character you want from the grid at the end of the post. As a bonus, I’m up for changing colors around to give a little more flavor to the graphics. Stuff like changing the eye, hair and clothes color. There’s also the option of uploading your own custom portrait, just bear in mind that the art style must be somewhat similar to the VX/Ace style so it won’t feel too out of place.)

Personality: (Describe the personality of your character in 3 words.)

Team: (Pick between team the following teams, this determines where in the story you will roughly appear and affect certain events)

- Team 95
- Team 2K (2000 + 2003)
- Team XP
- Team VX (VX and VX Ace)
- Team MX (MV and MZ)

Class: (A battle draws near! What weapon will you use to defend yourself? This determines your base class)

- Sword
- Spear
- Axe
- Knives
- Bow
- Magic Tome
- Support Staff
- Nothing, I’ll use my mind
- Nothing, I’ll use my body

Stats: (Distribute 20 points between these stats, with a minimum of 0 and a maximum of 10. These determine your growths and bases)

- Strength: 5/10
- Intelligence: 5/10
- Vitality: 5/10
- Agility: 5/10

Rock, Papers, Scissors: (Lastly, pick one of the three, this will have a small effect in your final stats)

(Your final class, stats and growths will be revealed through pm, giving you a chance to reroll once in case you don’t like the final result.)

(Here’s a chart of all the RTP heroes in case you have trouble picking a Portrait.)

[MAFIA] Star Trek (Limited Reveal) Mafia - Day 1

Yeah, things were pretty unbalanced (though I'm not sure we would've won without the nolynch strategy) but it was still fun and I'm up for any future Mafia games.

[MAFIA] Star Trek (Limited Reveal) Mafia - Day 1

Oh wow, I had no idea I was the Death Miller, good game everyone! Maybe too easy but it all could've gone wrong if the scum killed the cop. The cop was very invaluable here.

[MAFIA] Star Trek (Limited Reveal) Mafia - Day 1

Things got a little confusing but one thing is for certain, Cave outed themselves as Scum and I think it's a pretty safe bet to lynch them.

#lynch Cave

Cave probably outed themselves because they wanted to divert the attention away from the Strongman, they're probably the scum Coroner. The next day will be the most important to determine who's the second scum, and while I have a hunch that they're Ozzy we can never be too sure in this game.

[MAFIA] Star Trek (Limited Reveal) Mafia - Day 1

I dunno, some of you are acting a bit suspicious and as much as I want to lynch you I can't jump to any conclusions yet. I'll stick to the plan and vote for:

#nolynch

[MAFIA] Star Trek (Limited Reveal) Mafia - Day 1

I agree with the no lynch plan. The cop and coroner are such a strong asset and I don't want to run the risk of accidentally killing them on the first day (plus the chance of dying on the first night). Let's play it safe for now, as soon as we get more information we can start pointing fingers.
