Ok, so, im terrible at makeing games. <-- Not a good way to start this out? Yeah, i know, but still, its the truth. Most credit for this game goes to "Thundar The Barbarian" show, for a basic idea, although the races they had were....weird. And the show was a little TO old and kid friendly. AANNNYYYWWWAAAYYYSS.
In the future year of 2748, a great comet(as most assume it was, but the reports on it have been lost) came to close to the earth, destroying parts of the atmosphere, causeing chaos all over. Floods arrised, volcanos errupted, and all earthly order was destroyed. Chunks of the moon were smashed from the comet into the earth, inside of which was a strange cyrstal called "Excrium"(for lack of a better name) which caused mutation and powers to be imbued into the human race, and drastic changes to the wild life and landscape. The world is now in shambles, and tis' time for your adventure.(Note, story differs somewhat, gameplay is as of an rpg, with a mix of high tech sci-fi and primitive medival items and weapons together). Basiclly, gameplay, is, like most rpg's, freeroaming, gathering items, equiping, fighting, searching, converseing, exploreing, ECT.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me if you dont understand something. Im not very good at this, and havent made many RPG's, so feed back is great!
Charecter sheet:
Name: (first and last, make it sound exotic or normal, i dont care) Gender: (male or female, however, mutants can be asexual if...your one of those kinds of people) Age: (20-65 Please, exceptions can be made if they are reasonable) Race: (see below) Inventory: Powers/Abillitys: Physical description: (such as, if your a mutant, haveing one giant arm, your skin color, your eye color, ECT. Just give an example of how you look like)
Note: There are no skill points and such as i see i can hardly implement it and take it into consideration.
Race:
-Pure human: Humans who survied the "incident" un-mutated. Very rare, but hey, your the "Pwotaginist"(protaginists)(Lawlz for those who get that joke) and rare is your middle name(not literally).
-Mutant: Humans affected by the Excrium who mutated in cool and unusual ways. Although you slowly deteriorat mentally, youll have a pretty good time while it lasts! Once their mentallity wears out, they become "feral" and become like the animal, easy to control to those who are skilled. Powers range from wings, to uber-buff muscles, to being nocturnal, to minor mental-magical powers(such as confuseing people and leaveing foot prints that are...cold?)
Sorcerer-Humans affected by the Excrium gaining "magical" or "mystic powers" Uselly augumented by helmets containing or made of Excrium, they are uselly at least half insane but exceptions have been made. Without a Excrium "altered" or infused item, they are still capable of basic mental tricks and magical attacks, but are greatly inforced by Excrium. When wielding a Excrium item, they have been seen to manipulate machines and even reanimate dead.
-Shape Shifter: People forciblly or willingly imbued with the blood of an animal and a silver of Excrium may CALL themselves this, but really, they just imitate it. A true shape shifter is born with strange abilltys to transform their appearence to their will. However, if exposed to Excrium they will revert to their appearence. They are able to assume a "main" form, be it animal or human or even of a dragon. They can assume this form (note: even if your shape shifted as a dragon, while you can use its claws and teeth, you cant breath fire) whenever, but they can also use other forms, but they only last for 5 hours at max.
There are also other races which arnt playable, but might be later if i decide.
This is all i have for now, i hope you find it good and playable. Please ask any questions. No player limit for now, if it IS popular, then i might enforce a limit. Enjoy.

(Crystal hi-jacking your powers and haveing you kill innocents is ALWAYS cool) You flap them, they move more or less so, and soon find your self flying away. The crystal weakens a bit and find your self much more exhausted and weakened, but still able to go on. You land on an arch over a mountian pass, which is over a small natural harbor with a pirate ship in. The ship is steadily floating with 1 gaurd armed with a cutlas on the top steering, and 2 with pistols patroling the deck.

Apprentice: Ah, yes. Master has sent me a new test subject, yes? I wanted to test a over chargeing spell. If it works, it will increase your powers by a ten fold while it lasts, and erm...if it doesnt work, well, you'll most likely explode. He shoots a blast of yellow light into you. Suddenly, you feel incredible. Your strong arm gets larger, super charged and you feel like you could crush a building with it. Your legs, charged, make you feel like you could run around the world in 5 secands flat. Suddenly, one of your eye stalks lunges out with the eye on it, moveing on command, allowing you to see around with it, remove it at will and still use it.
Apprentice: Hmm...guess it worked a little TO well. Well,-
*suddenly, the door bursts open, and two gaurds in silver full plate armor with silver greatsword grab you and the apprentice. Downstairs you spot men identical to them, killing the minions gaurding the area. You can see the Sorcerer decimate a group of them and teleport away with his artifacts*
*One without a helmet on, a pure human, holding a assualt rifle in pristine silver condition, enters, and the others salute him*
Captian: You two! Good subjects, you'll make good fighters for the arena. Come quitely.
*he motions to the other two as they and the others form up. One was able to capture a minotaur. They load you 3 up in a wagon attached to a car, which one drives. THey then have a horse in the back, another car infront of this one, and another horse. Your all bound to the seats.*
Good, but i added some extra stuff as your abillitys, this time, are a little...weak. Such as your tail working on all things, however, effects on non-human might be different. And your stronger.
You wake up in some kind of ruined lab, your on the ground, just wakeing up from whenever. You notice you have some leather armor, a smoke grenade, and a combat knife. Around you is a machine with a button marked "RELEASE" one marked "TERMINATE" one marked "EDIT" and one missing. Around you are Vats filled with green liquid, within are bubbly masses of mutants, all in a coma within the vats. There is a hole in the wall out, but no other visible exit. Outside is a small mountian pass that leads into a forest.

Crystals seem awesome. Just so I'm right, I'm a crystal man with wings now, correct? I'll swoop down, grab the guard, and try to throw him overboard.
Name: Aleister Pike Gender: Male Age: 20 Race: Shape Shifter Inventory: Powers/Abillitys: Shapeshifting Physical description: 6'2" tall, pale skin, very thin, green eyes, short black hair
Yep.
You grab one gaurd with a pistol, but before you can throw him, the cyrstal covers him two, and your crystal grows brighter as his skin grows pale and weary. You feel restored. The crystal then completely covers him as a being like you, and a mental link with the sperate crystal appears, letting you control your creation.

Dude... I have him shoot the other gun guard, and I'll go grapple the cutlass guard.
Name: Aleister Pike Gender: Male Age: 20 Race: Shape Shifter Inventory: Powers/Abillitys: Shapeshifting Physical description: 6'2" tall, pale skin, very thin, green eyes, short black hair
The other gaurd dies, but you dont have the chance to "abosrb" him into your collection as he died without you. The cutlas gaurd (he's the captian) spots you, and screams in terror. He trys to stab the cutlas through you, but it bends and shatters when it hits you. At his scream, 4 slaves, 2 gaurds with pistols, one quarter master with an assult rifle, and a captive mage all climb up from the inside.
(note: The gaurd you "changed" doesnt have wings, and as soon as the gaurds spotted you, the ship was set in full swing sailing away. Your now about 2-3 miles away from the shoreline)

I'll have my servant attack, and go try to grapple the Mage.
Name: Aleister Pike Gender: Male Age: 20 Race: Shape Shifter Inventory: Powers/Abillitys: Shapeshifting Physical description: 6'2" tall, pale skin, very thin, green eyes, short black hair
The servent attacks the qaurter master and a slave and a gaurd. The other 3 slaves simply hide, they do not wish to serve the pirates. And the mage is a captive, he isnt fighting for them, and is bound on his wrists and legs. When you try to grapple with him, he casts a ward spell which backs your attack off as he "waddles" away.
Name: Aleister Pike Gender: Male Age: 20 Race: Shape Shifter Inventory: Powers/Abillitys: Shapeshifting Physical description: 6'2" tall, pale skin, very thin, green eyes, short black hair
I'll have my servant ignore the slaves, and I'll try to free the Mage.

You destroy the chains on his arms and legs, but there is a metal "choker" on his throat with a gem like your crystals in it, probley chargeing it with magic. The gaurd dies from your loyal servent, and injures the loyal slave. But the qaurter master bandages his wound and heads after you. THe slaves change out of their slave clothes and help them selves to the outfits of the dead pirates, and takeing their weapons. One now useing duel pistols, one a cutlas, and the other a knife and grenade. They stand back still though, unsure wether to attempt to flee or help you. The qaurter master fires some shoots into the mages legs, crippleing him. The loyal slave then stab his arm, but the mage then flings him off the boat.
Name: Aleister Pike Gender: Male Age: 20 Race: Shape Shifter Inventory: Powers/Abillitys: Shapeshifting Physical description: 6'2" tall, pale skin, very thin, green eyes, short black hair
I yell to the slaves, "Help me and you'll be treated like free men." I'll try to take the choker off the mage.
Name: Aleister Pike Gender: Male Age: 20 Race: Shape Shifter Inventory: Powers/Abillitys: Shapeshifting Physical description: 6'2" tall, pale skin, very thin, green eyes, short black hair
As soon as you touch it, feed back hits you and decimates your crystals, you feel your senses returning to normal and feel dazed, however, before the qaurter master can take advantage of this moment of weakness, the slaves ambush and kill him. You notice the mage's choker is destroyed now, and he thanks you, but points to his mouth to show his tounge has been cut, and attempts with crude sign laungage to explain, but to no avail, its to confuseing to understand.

I'll ask the slaves if they have anything to write with and write on.
