The Story:
You play as you, and have no name but what you make for yourself. You start off in the introduction speaking with your fellows and King Ferdas, of the city of Releigh. He wants something, and he wants you to get it for him. From there, the story becomes.. rather tenebrous... hehe...

My story is going to be variable, depending on the actions you take in the game. That involves multiple endings and stuff.. sometimes I wonder what I'm going to be putting myself through trigger wise

You have also a young dragon hatchling, who knows where it came from, or why you have it?
Naturally, there are a great number of levels to be attained, items to buy and find and sell, things to do, places to see, et cetera.
The fighting is not quite turn based, nor real time, this is so I can effectively control the conditions and fights.
This map utilizes the dropship system for item use, and unit building for spell casting.
Eventually, my idea is that you will be able to do everything. Kill other players even. Kill towns, if you're strong enough. Of course, there are consequences for everything.
I think I'll keep a counter based on your actions to determine responses to things, ex. if you go around killing houses, the city guard is not going to like you...

Items:
-Health Restorative - obvious
-Mana Restorative - obvious
-Smoke Bomb - allows you to escape from battle
-Cloak - hides you from your enemies; they cannot see your hero in battle and out of battle will not engage you

Deaths:
-Very Diablo II-esque, if you die you spawn a corpse, which eventually will be able to be looted by other players, and they can steal all of your gold and items. If you bring your hero to it, you get everything back. If you never get your body back you'll never be able to hold any gold either though!

Play the demo! Please note: there are MANY things unfinished, but in the words of some old dead guy: I have not yet begun to fight!

Was fun and simple. My hatchling died a fair bit. Found it easyer to play solo and steal all the xp crystals and money! Battle system was alright, bit slow at times get into battle chasing down a zealot. Anyway keep up the good work.

Yea there's a bar. What medieval rpg could be complete without a bar? And good idea. I'll add something, in fact I have to add lots of somethings to lots of things.
