EPHIAM'S PROFILE

^ 8/10. Oooo. Freaky.

Ha ha. I guess I'll have to follow the trend that you people have started! I also like Dragon Quest V the most out of the ones I have played (Which are 1-6, and 8 ). But I also like DQ 2 and 4, too.

I'll be gettin' both Dragon Quest IV, V, and VI when they are released for the DS.

Well, summer has come and I've decided to go ahead and make a little something to pass the time. I enjoy wirintg to a fair bit, so I decided to go with this and see how things work out. It helps me to discuss things with one of my friends (who is also making a story; we give each other ideas) and also get my mind off some other matters. It is not going to be the most original or heart-stopping thing ever, because I'm not going to try to rack my brain over this. It is only for fun, and I intend for it to stay that way.

This is only a small sample of the "script" I am writing. I am just wondering if I need to clarify or describe some things better. Like...can you picture the scenes clearly? Etc.





The Devil Keeper: Script Format

The First Act: For the sake of an answer.
PAGE ONE (four panels)

Panel 1. This panel is all black, depicting night. There may be a few stars, but having it all black would symbolize total darkness.

1 CAP: THEY SAY HE ONLY APPEARS AT NIGHT...


Panel 2. This shot depicts a front-on view into a rather old looking town. The town is twisted, forming a slight arc from the right half of the panel to the left in a "U" shape. There is a bright and large full moon in the center of the panel within the U-shaped town. It rests high above head , and the buildings seem to be moving out of the way to allow it to be seen. The sky is black , and on the moon's surface is a shadowy figure expressing a grin of pure malice. It is only a head, and it takes up nearly a full half of the moon. It has two large, round white eyes.

2 CAP: SOME REFER TO HIM AS THE MAN IN THE MOON--HE WHO COMES TO WATCH THE PLAY.


Panel 3. This is an inward shot into a child's room. It appears as though we are looking in through the window and can see a good portion of the room for our selves. There are numerous toys, teddy bears, and a bed that stretches off panel. We can see that the bed looks as if someone had been previously laying in it, as the sheets are moved all down to the side--like when someone wakes up (they are pushed down into the corner). The room is mainly dark, but the moonlight from outside shines through the window and illuminates some of the bed and a good section of the floor. If further clarification is needed, it may look like a room a small girl around the age of 6 or 7 would have. In the light the same dark face as the previous panel is stretched across the floor as well as the bed, but this time it is more elongated, as if the figure casting the shadow is just outside the window.

3 CAP: WHILE OTHERS SIMPLY CALL HIM THE BOOGEYMAN--A MONSTER WHO COMES TO STEAL THOSE WITH HARD FEELINGS AWAY.


Panel 4. This panel is once again an entirely black-filled panel.

4 CAP: YET ALL ARE OBLIVIOUS TO HIS TRUE MEANING...














PAGE TWO (One panel; the entire page.)

Panel 1. This panel (or page) shows the same shadow'd figure from Page 1, but now he is now residing on the top of the page, his eyes and smile arched down,as if his face were directed more to ground-level than the reader. Two hands, to the left and to the right, are also entirely covered in black, and are holding on to a group of five strings each; a string per finger. The entire top half of the page is black, yet it starts to gain clearity and light as it moves down to the bottom. To the left and right of the page are two curtains which appear to be torn and worn out, smudged with dirt and exhibiting the fact that they had been in use for a very long time but were forgotten. On the bottom of the page is a wooden stage actor's may perform on during a play. It is scratched up and has numerous holes and smudge marks covering it. Covering the left side of the stage are bloody hand prints and sprays of blood, some of it even appearing on the curtain to the same side. Dancing around on the stage are numerous wooden dolls dressed in rags designed to appear as cloths, and each is doing a small action (does not matter what; twisting, turning, waving, etc.). They are attatched to the strings extending from the shadow man's hands on the top of the page.

1 CAP: HE IS THE KEEPER, THE PUPPETEER OF MANKIND'S DEMISE.




The rest shall come later...!

An old man who collects everything he finds and does not trow away a single thing.
I don't know WHY, though. _

Welcome to the forum! I hope you have a great stay around here, and post more often as well!
