Sword of the Angels

[CoolPlayRPG]

Okay, here I will post the new Version of Sword of the Angels.
I'll beginn at the start...

 Story:

Today people can't imagine...

Old and young humans - generations over generations - nobody knows exactly, what happened these 2000 years ago.

People learned to live with their fate.

Maybe everything would have come totaly different, if the sword would have destroyed the black instead the white angels.

Only a book, that was made with letters and diary entries of the past, gives al little clue of what happened at this time.

This book is called the "Equivilya". Equivilya is a word of the past. It means paine, anger and faire together.

But only a bit more worse...


 Parts taken form the Equivilya:

Letter from a soldier to his wife:

"...I don't know exactly, when it started, but as it started, I could'nt be with you. And now we can't be together as well. This makes me very sad. Our baby should be born soon, will it? Please describe it to me in you next letter up to the smallest hair..."

With this letter, the man rought the wife the terrible news, that her husband had fallen. One week later her son was born.



Diary entry from a little girl named Sita, dated on the 07.03.

"Dear diary,
since the black and the white angels are fighting each other, my parents live in fear every day. A few days ago a man was here. He wanted to take my father with him. He would have to fight also, he said. But then he saw my father's broken leg, and he left immediatelly. My mother is happy with this.
Well, I have to go to bed. Mum will be angry if I don't."

Two days later a magic ball of the black angels was thrown on the house. The whole family died in the smoke of the flames.



Letter from a black angel to the "master", a few moments after the white angels disappeared.

"Dear master,
proudly I Have to tell you, that the white angels are defeated. Our leader, the black angel, Satumael, won in the fight against the leader of the white angels, Ismael. He summoned a strong sword, that killed all white angels all over the world in a few seconds."


 Believe of the humans:

The most believed story of how the white angels disappeared comes from the letters and diary entries in the Equivilya.

99% of the humanity does not believe, that the sword was summoned by the black angels. This was already acclined by the leader of the black angels. Where the sword came from is still a mystery.

But in every human lies the hope, that the black angels some day will disappear, too. Of course there are some humans who got loyal slaves of the black angels, but this is only a hand full.


 The life today:

Towns, Villages and other places haven't improved there technical knowledge muc since the war 2000 years ago, but still some things were found, that make life easier. Every human is able to cast spells, and so called "Lumia-Crystals" give the humans the ability to summon "Creata". The Creata are beasts, that can help in battle and in every-day-situations. The life tody isn't bad, if the humasn do what the black angels want.

The old race of the "Irana" has disappeared since a few years. The Irana were humans, who were able to use white magic. White magic is very dangerous for black angels, so the Irana were probably killed by the black angels.

There is an easy structure of life: The black angels stand over the humans and they are leaded by Satumael.
Such an easy way of living....

you won't believe it, but this isn't rmxp.

it's just rm2k3. of course the textboxes are selfmade, the rm2k3 would never use such textboxes, does he? and even if i would use rmxp, i would have to make these textboxes by my own. the rmxp also don't uses such textboxes.

The story is ok, and the screenshots are cool. The faceshots are cool also. I do speak Deutsch little bit, but I didn't understand a word about the dialogue. Please, make the game english. By the way, Sota is finish and means war.

[dragoninja]

Even cooler!

I'm looking forward to a demo...
Btw, how did you make the text boxes?

He probably did this:

Show picture = Text box
Show picture = Face
Msg style: transparent bg
Show Text:
\c[1]Name\c[0]
"Text"

[dragoninja]

 

Show picture = Text box
Show picture = Face
Msg style: transparent bg
Show Text:
\c[1]Name\c[0]
"Text"  

Riight... Easy as that...

[Vicener]

Well anyway that's the way I made mine.

[Sqoad]

Ummmm.....
Show picture = Text box
Show picture = Face
Msg style: transparent bg
Show Text:
\c[1]Name\c[0]
"Text" ..... Is it simple as that? And how are you supposed to type it? In a normal message or what?

[Vicener]

Well he probably left extra spaces like this:
Message box:
__________________________________
|    \c[1]Name\c[0]                                       |
|   "Text"                                                      |
|                                                                   |
|                                                                   |

Maybe you should change those RTP chipsets. They really stand out.
