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.

He points to the sphereical object at the center of the island, clearing haveing holes in it. He rushs past you and the gaurds, and locks him self in the captians cabin. The village chief and two gaurd come out to greet you.
Chief: Welcome travels, pray tell, what brings you here?

You sniff out a rotting corpse, and the smell overwhelms your nose, paritally blinding your senses(as wolves rely on their noses alot). Up ahead you squint out a torch.

I carefully go towards the torch. I hope that the walking corpse will be of anything except another shape shifter.

You find it, and it is a human half turned into a jagur with bloddy red lines between the halves, the signs of a shape shifter dieing mid-shifting. A creepy dark laugh enters the cavarn. The entrance disappears. Now only a line of tourchs lead forward.

SUddenly, his voice changes from a island chief to a squeaky, alien creepy voice(For lack of bettr adjetives)
Chief: Kill them, NOW!
The gaurds weapons tips change from spear, to folding out with high tech equipment inside, makeing it a four pointed spear with one big point in the middle, spinning. Looks like somekind of high tech gun. They fire, burning one slave severly, the other grabs him and heaves him aboard. The one that saved the other yells to you: "Get aboard, we can fire the cannons at them!" As he says this, the ship begins to turn so the cannons have a shot. Better get on fast.

A trap and I walked right into it. I try to ease the pain of the dieing shape shifter before following the torches.

You just killed all excitment with that bland sentance. Oh well, your about to die, that sure kicks up the excitment. YOu leap up, and the injured slave is being tended to by the mage with healing spells as they both man cannons, the other two slaves also man the cannons. There are 4 cannons on each side, so they are both use up. They use their "spears" to blast several clumps of the ship into rubble, and soon enough it will sink. With the cannon balls they destroyed a few huts and killed 4-5 of the people trying to help the gaurds. The chief is commanding, the gaurds protecting/attack. The 2 remaining people draw spears and open fire aswell. One cannon is destroyed. The mage leaves his destroyed cannon to fully spend time healing the injured slave while he loads and fires.

He smiles at your kind face as he passes away. The torchs turn a sickly purple. They lead into a large chamber with large purple fires in 3 directions. (north east and west metal chain doors, with large purple fires infront of them.) As you step down, you see a large "well" in the middle, with purple shapes(they appear to be souls) floating up and down from it to something on the celling, a large purple gem. As soon as you back far enough away from the entrance, it drops a metal chain door over it and the fire comes over. You see what appears to be a purple crystilized hand, human size, like a statue "reaching" up from the well. It has a strange symbol on the palm, the crystal like an armor over and invisible hand, and a single silver ring with a orange gem on its ring finger.
A sickly and dark voice comes from it.
Voice: Once i was a powerful crystal lord...I, the lord of Xru(the purple crystals, as you suspect), had defeated the lord of Excrium, took his ring of power. Defeated the lord of Tuves, took her ring of power. Deafeted the lord of Ish-Ken, took it's ring of power. And took the ring of Loquen, the false lord, before banishing them(refering to Loquen) back to mortals. But now, the priests of the others rallied for years and found my shrine, slew my armys and priests, and reclaimed their rings. The priest of Tuves, the last one of the others, before she could retrieve the ring, i bound my Black ring with a purple crystal into my form. Destroying it, yes, and sealing me within this well of souls, but i was able to finally fend them off and save a ring. Now, i cannot pass on my ring of power to a disciple like we are required to do. As while i have the ring of Tuves, i cannot survive without my ring until i claim the others. That is what you must do for me. I will send you out into the world to hunt the other rings for me. Once i have them, you will be my high priest in my honor, my grand warrior, and my human advisor. You will be bestown MY ring, and become powerful. If you attempt to resist or reveal my plan in a way that might harm it, i will stop you from doing so. I bestow this crystal ring onto you so my contract stands. *a rough cyrstal circle appears around your index finger* Attempt to remove it and you will die. Do you accept this, mortal, to be my herald and retrieve this rings? Not that you have much choice...
