Updated with descriptions of the items. Hopefully this will allow for easier spriting when that time comes. Also slightly changed the design of the first outfit.
I'll be working on Chrono City's history next.
Also added Demon of Insamel to history.
History of Chrono City
Underneath Chrono City lies a town buried in time. In the days of old, Chrono Town began as a small trading establishment founded by humans. Located in the center of Liimina, it quickly became a prosperous community. All of the races came together, building upon the town, expanding it by sectioning the town into districts designed for trade, tourism and lodging, or recreation. Business thrived but not all was well. With the rise of the economy, there was also a rise in crime and an increasing interest in black market goods. Thieves prowled the streets after dark mugging travelers and breaking into stores, selling the stolen goods back for a profit.
The settlers became concerned and decided upon a system of law enforcement. A large prison was constructed underground alongside an aqueduct, and guards patrolled each district in shifts, an effort intended to keep the townsfolk safe from crime. The criminals who were captured were taken to the prison which proved harsh but effective. Weeks confined in a dark cell with nothing other than the blare of waves crashing against the walls of the prison proved to be punishment enough to drive men mad. There was never an instance where an individual was incarcerated multiple times.
Time went on for several decades and Chrono Town became somewhat of a peaceful town, until the Elfin Plague epidemic. During this time many elves were imprisoned and tortured under false charges. As their race was the only one to not be afflicted by the disease while others suffered and died, many humans sought to believe they were the cause of it. This torture and animosity against elves went on for decades while a war was waged and hundreds of elves were tortured to death in the Chrono Town Penitentiary throughout the century.
Less than 50 years after the last case of the Elfin Plague, an elven emissary descended from the sky city of Cloudvale and proposed a peace treaty. This treaty was accepted and the humans decided that they would start Chrono Town anew, and thus began the construction of Chrono City. The new city was to be built atop the old town and it would be even larger to support more settlers. The prison and aqueducts were abandoned in place of a community jail house and building walls around the town. The main entrances to the town would be raised drawbridges by night leaving only one guarded entrance and exit to allow travelers. The seasons came and went and Chrono City quickly flourished with the help of all the races coming together once more. Generations passed and eventually everything anyone knew of the Old Town and its dark past has been long forgotten.
Added a story section which is really just a big update to the plot. Added controls section, which I need help with as I've never played computer games. Added Energy Meters section, and energy costs to the abilities, items, and spells sections.
As of 4/23
So, tonight I'm feeling in a writing mood as I think I've been slacking. So I'm gonna spend the next few hours working on the History of Yamoah.
History of Yamoah
Long ago before the land of Liimina was named, there was no safe haven from monsters for humankind. A band of settlers led by a group of warriors known as the Wolves of Dawn had journeyed in search of a new land to inhabit. After traveling across the sea, they eventually came to find that the land was rife with monsters and savage wildlife. Seeking an area away from monsters with a suitable climate for everyday life, the Wolves of Dawn continued to traverse the land.
Many lives were lost searching for a new home as the seasons came and went, and many miles were traveled. Eventually they came across a canyon with a large cave opening into the opposite side of a waterfall. For hunters this would be the perfect area to settle in. A constantly streaming water source, a cave for shelter, and walls guarding all sides but the entrance to the valley; they had all they needed to survive aside of food which the wildlife could offer them. Though the seasons changed the climate of the valley remained nearly constant throughout the year. This weather was perfect for building as it was never too warm or too cool to sleep outside and the construction went on undisturbed by monsters for many years.
They fashioned buildings from sturdy stone with wooden doors and ceilings, with windows being small gaps in the walls. Due to their hunting lifestyle, each building was made with an easy access latched roof from the inside. After nearly a decade, the leaders of the Wolves of Dawn Yamoah and Rikai settled down as rulers of the town which was named after them.
Rikai, after decades of protecting Yamoah from evil creatures noticed that his sword began to change in hue. He was unsure why, but thought it may have been a curse caused by the blade's power to absorb the essence of those it slays. Afraid that the curse might someday overcome him. He had a shrine built deep inside the cave where he would lay his
sword to rest.
Centuries later, as the town had advanced far enough, a bridge was built to the other side of the valley and a castle was built to watch over the town's entirety. The Rikai bloodline eventually became royalty and lost their hardened survivalist nature as the town became inaccessible to all monsters that didn't possess flight. This was made possible by a famous inventor who created a bridge that could retract by winding a lever. From that time on, Yamoah has been largely untouched by monsters and hasn't seen much change.
