Archonon Bay - Reign of Maelstrom
500 years ago, Archonon Bay was one of the world's most flourishing trade locations. Merchants from all over the globe set sail to Archonon Bay hoping to strike its riches. Amongst the merchants, was a famous inventor named Kadeous Maelstrom. Soon after his arrival, he joined forces with a local warlock named Paavo. Together, they combined witchcraft with technology to create five spectacular gems. They named them the gems of Life, Wealth, Wisdom, Courage and Power. As Paavo proudly presented the five gems to the world, Maelstrom secretly began to harness their immense power.
As weeks passed, Maelstrom began to feel threatened by Paavo’s involvement. Shortly after, Paavo was slaughtered in his sleep by Maelstrom. Now with the law after him, Maelstrom gathered all five gems, and set sail into one of the most violent storms on record. Legends say Maelstrom’s boat sank somewhere on the outskirts of Archonon Bay.
There was silence for roughly a year. Everyone had forgotten of Maelstrom, Paavo, and their five gems. One cloudy morning however, while most villagers were still asleep, Maelstrom arose from the depths of Archonon Bay. He was enveloped in a black mist said to degenerate anyone who was engulfed by it.
With an army of thunderstorms, tidal waves, and meteors, Maelstrom destroyed islands and murdered hundreds of villagers. But what happened next was even more breathtaking. During the time of Maelstrom’s attack, there happened to be a small pirate crew sailing through the bay.The pirates couldn’t believe their eyes. They thought they were doomed.
Amongst them however, was a young boy named Jah. As the crew sailed into their almost certain death, Jah reached into his pocket to withdraw a flute. In the presence of chaos and havoc, Jah began to play a tune on his flute while keeping his eyes focused on Maelstrom. After a few seconds, a gigantic tornado began to form around Maelstrom. Suddenly, Maelstrom was lifted into the sky, and was never seen again. Jah was announced the great savior of Archonon Bay. That night, Jah fell asleep as a hero. The next morning, he failed to awaken. Some say Jah’s mind was infiltrated by Maelstrom. But no one will ever know for sure. Or will they...?
This is the plot in the works for the map which is so big i can almost say that it could be made into its own game.
The game is based around and rpg that has been worked on for over a summer not just an idea that was thought of. Which includes an ample amount of work that has been done.
However for the map to reach its full potential. These are some of the possibilities that are already thought of, and considered. Item stacks item forgers, spell books, boss fights, battle ships, over 200 side quests(already wrote down), unique weapons, custom weapons "Battleships" style sea combat with enemy ships, sea monsters, elemental amours and flying machines, and so so much more.
I, the messenger from the creator of the game, have come to ask if you. The person who read through a block of text and is still curious to see if you would like to help out in any way. You must fall under the category that i will explain.
a) a nice person in general
b) to be able to do one of these things or more ?
-An item maker, who is able to link experience with items. Also, needs to manage the several hundred item possibilities successfully.
-Trigger er - Needs to be able to make save/load codes. Needs to be able to stack potions. You also need to be able to make spell books, and an item inventory other than the standard 6-slot one.
-Boss designer - Able to make triggers that make it fun for the users. To sum it up, we cant have boss battles be 10 minutes of melee combat.
-Spell Creator - Needs to be able to trigger his own spells, and think of them. Each race needs very very unique spells. For all units and as you can see..there are none right now!!!!
If you fit those well...2 categories then please email [email protected] or [email protected] just in case for the entire information. Thank you for reading.
"If the map fails, or if the map becomes bigger than DotA.. Either way, anyone who had anything to do with this map will be credited accordingly."
