Relinquo: Path to Hel

[Neonlare]

An Idea I had, based on some myths of Norse Religeon...

The Story is that you are a group of Warriors Banished from Val'Halla, and are on the perilous path to Hel, a cold, desolate place which is like a prison.

On the way, one of your comrades, Spokelse, dirven by rage and madness, strays off the path, into the Abyss.

The Main heroes carry onwards, but when they reach Helheim, something evil is afoot...

Spokelse, has freed thoose of evil blood, enslaved thoose weakest, such as old men that have died in their beds, and wicked women.

You head towards where Odin, the Cheif God stands, he is talking to Hella, the Goddess of Death.

You aproach Odin, and strike a Deal with him.

You retrive Spokelse, and you go back to Val'Halla.

And as you progress through the story, you will find out more and more of the history of your characters, and how they ended up in Helheim.

It is in this game you can travel to the Nine Worlds.

Helheim, the Land of the Dead.

Sweartaelfham, where the Dark-Elves and Dwarfs reside. (Mork-Alfs in Norse)

Eotenham, the land of Giants, Trolls, Rimthurses and Jotuns, this is where Jötunar resides.

Nifleheim, the Land of Ice and Mist, there are many rivers there. They are Svól, [cool] Gunnthrá, [battle defiant] Fjörm, Fimhulthul, [loud bubbling] Slío, [fearsome] Hrío, [storming] Sylg, Ylg, Vío, [broad] Leipt [fast as lightning] and Gjöll, which is next to Helheim's Gate.


Midgard, (A.K.A Earth) Middle-Earth, the land which Humans reside.

Vanaheimr, the home of the Wena (Vanir) the second family of Gods of which Freya and Fréo are members. It is thought to be west of Midgarðr and like Ágarðr is said to have many mansions.

Muspell, the Land of Fire, the home land of the Fire Giants.

Aelfham, the realm of the Light Elfs, (Lyse-Alf in Norse) and the place where the Golden Gates to Esageard Reside.

Esageard, the Land of the Aesir, (Gods) resides atop Val'Halla, and keeps it's watchfull Eyes on thoose who live below them.

SECONDARY HEROES (Ones you see, but don't control)

Vanir

VILLANS

Spokelse (Meaning Ghost)

Fenrir

Jötunar

Loki

Leviathan

Grendel

I'm not sure whether to complete this or not, if so, i'm gonna need some Character Sets Made of the characters, I'll describe the Main Villen, Spokelse, later.

Oh, and Relinquo translates as To Forsake in Latin

[Bart_Fatima]

AWESOME story I bow   to your great Story and Characters/places
 Val Halla like the Viking God

[Neonlare]

Ahh, well, I think I'll leave the Idea of making it a game and write it as a story, also, Val'Halla is the After life, their version of Heaven, but for Warriors.

Thanks for the comments.

Oh, and don't mix Freya up with the one from FF9, She was infact a he, and he was one of the cheif leaders of the Valkyries.

And I'm gona change Dritz' name to Furie, which translates as Fury (Suprise Suprise)

[Bart_Fatima]

okay two things why are they going to Hel, and Beowulf and grendel, are they the same ones from the folk tale of Beowulf?

 I think you should explain more on the storyline, like in stead of just saying what they are doing

[Neonlare]

Ahh, If I told you, that would kill off the story.

Yes, Grendel and Beowulf are the same as in the stories, except Grendel has been freed from Helhuim (Sp) and your not the only heroes trying to capture Spokolese, Beowulf, Freya and other ones are trying to claim the reward for themselves, and Odin has struk the deal with them that they would become a God (Or stronger one) If they capture Spokolese, so the band of "heroes" got a rotten deal.

Spokolese is planing to overthrow Odin, with some assistance of Loki (Who plans to inturn slay Spokolese, but we'll deal with that later) and other Norse Legends, some of them, Loki's Offspring, such as Fenrir.

[Robotam]

It's a pretty original storyline I guess. *thumbs up*

[Neonlare]

[Snake Eater]

[Homunculus]

[Neonlare]

lol, thanks for the comments guys, as for it being an RPG Maker game, I'm not so sure. what's for certain is that I'm wrighting a book on it, with the same name, so it may end up for PS 3 (Here's Wishing!   )

[Joe_the_EchidnaFox]

pretty Good Story.
If you have a Sonic the Hedgehog Character,I'd let you join my RPG.
PM me if you accept.

[xJericho]

It sound's really cool...

I like really like the myth of the north (as german boy I'm not to far away of them *laughing*)

but you have to add the midgard-snake,... it's an heavy weighin' part in the north mythology...  

[Neonlare]

It's in.

Ok, thanks for the reviews, the more interest shown the better.

[Bart_Fatima]

Need anyhelp making more characters? I can help ya if you need anything

[Neonlare]

I think that'l be all, unless there are more monsters, then they will be some of the only characters in the game, some I havn't mentioned.

Ex.

Baldur: God of Beuty (Sp)

(And others)
