Honour Among Thieves

[Bunnyburn]

Name: Honour Among Thieves
Game Type: Two player RPG/Campaign

The story begins in the town of Iiden, a small city in The Empire. Two of the cities most notorious thieves: Feinn, and Reiaxu, are plotting to ransack a noble's home, as they enter the home, they fail to notice the noble, wide awake in the next room, the noble quickly flees the home and alerts the town guard. Oblivious to the coming of the authorities, Feinn and Reiaxu happily rob the man of his jewels, coins, and dirty magazines. As they walk out the front door, pockets weighted down by illegally aquired riches, they are instantly netted, and captured by the town guard. Reiaxu, being a silver-tongued fellow, pursuades guard that he is the noble, and that he had captured Feinn, and was taking him to the Guard Barracks. Feinn, too shocked by Reiaxu's betrayal, cannot defend himself. In the jail, Feinn waits...
The next day, Feinn awakes to the sound of screams, and the smell of death. "Took you long enough to wake up"
Reiaxu is sitting on a stool, in Feinn's cell.
"Reiaxu, what are you doing here, I thought you had betrayed me for your own freedom, what made you change your mind."
"Ha, you actually think I'd betray you, if we were both detained, we'd be trapped here until, alas! we rotted away to nothing, but if only one of us was captured, then the other would go free, then the free bird could save the jailbird."
"Why did I have to be the one to be captured"
"Well, you lack the talent and grace it takes to break through more than a dozen highly trained soldiers"
"I guess your right, well, let's get out of here"
They both run out of Feinns cell, and into the hallway, after running through the corridors, they end up in a torture chamber, they run through the chamber quickly, due to the scent of rotting flesh. As they are nearing the exit, they are ambushed from behind by a group of about 10 soldiers, they turn and flee, but a woman appear in front of them.
"Capture the thieves!!!"
The woman pulls out 2 pistols and begins firing on Feinn and Reiaxu, they dodge her bullets, and take her down while she is reloading, they leave her unconcious, and flee the prison, then jump from rooftop to rooftop, back to their hidout.

sounds like an awesome idea, thats a long intro story. . . its not all gonna be on the loading screen is it?

anyways the name is awesome.

 

[hellmonja27]

is that Sephy??? that might cause some problems.

i like the story a lot. this would be really cool if it has a cinematic with the said scene taking place...

 

[Quauhtli]

the one on the left looks like a woman if u ask me...
but i like the story

 

[darkholy]

dont use the guy on the left
he's Sephiroth from Final Fantasy 7

 

[Bunnyburn]

i know perfectly well who he is, I wrote Char. Bios b4 i found models, seph just fit the hair, eye thing perfect, and im not gonna spend another 8 hours looking for another. And the intro, it wont be a cinematic, all of it will be played, once they are captured however, it is cinematic, unitl reiaxu saves feinn, reiaxu (player 2) will actually play the breaking into the prison.
At least he might, im not sure if Player 2 will always be reliable, still thinking.
Anyway, thanx, more of the story and more char bios later on. Thanks.

 

[Bunnyburn]

This is a new chracter, Crypts, my friend made, and he will be integrated into the story later, right now, his bio makes very little sense.
Read Crypts bio below in Cryptlords post.

Till this day he looks for them and finds a way out of his cursed life.

ever heard of Edit?

I thought of a real good idea for abilities and stuff.
Don't you all hate how in most big rpg's, they last sometimes several hours, and you have a hero with only 5 abilities, kinda boring, so I thought of something cool. After you upgrade all your abilities to max, you change classes, getting much stronger, and a new set of 5 abilities, all of your old abilities will be placed under one spellbook based ability, so even though you get 5 new abilities, you still have the 5 from your old class.
I'm thinking you'll change classes twice, once from your starting to a middle class, and then from that middle to a Master class, totaling up 15 abilities per hero, plus their innate abilities.

Please contribute, Thanks

 

[hellmonja27]

nice claws...

 

[PooEater]

Sounds like an awesome idea, I really like the ability thingy, and all the models are awesome too. How is the game going to be layed out?

 

[hellmonja27]

oh and one more thing: i kinda like how the characters in your story felt pretty human. i mean most WC3 map makers today are just interested in making the baddest heroes there is. a good way to make your story really interesting is to throw in some human issues like friends, grief, family, those kinda stuff. oh heck! i think i'm starting to babble. hope you get what i mean...

 

[Bunnyburn]

As you all may have seen, every character so far has a major problem in his past. Well, there are going to be three types of quests: Main quests, these advance the story, and are required to beat the game, Side Quests, these are for fun, cash, experience, etc. And then there are the character quests, these quests are not required, but reccomended. In these quests you usually end up resolving the characters past. There will be 1 Character quest for every character.

oh and one more thing: i kinda like how the characters in your story felt pretty human. i mean most WC3 map makers today are just interested in making the baddest heroes there is

Yeah, Im trying to makthe them seem realish, BUT, at same time, I want them to be badass.


If you PM me I may just give you a story spoiler.

Thanks for your support.

New Characters!:

Name: Janae
Age: 26
Height 5'11"
Weight: 115 lbs
Hair Color: Brown
Eye Color: Brown
Race: Human
Class: Gunner
Weapon: Dual Pistols
Element: Fire
Janae was an elite bounty hunter for the city of Iiden, but when she was defeated by Feinn and Reiaxu while they were escaping from the prison, she thought she was disgraced, so she went with them, and has been trying to become stronger, so she would be able to challenge them again. She is incredibly stubborn, never admiting defeat, and refusing to do anything she does't want to.




Name: Emily
Age: 15
Height: 5'3"
Weight: 85 lbs
Hair Color: Blonde
Eye Color: Blue
Race: Half-Elf
Class: Impaler
Weapon: Serrated Halberd
Element: Water
Emily was born into a poor family by her human father and elven mother, at the age of 5 she began to learn to fight, and at 7, she became a mercenary, fighting fully grown men, and countless monsters, all at that young of age. She was such a powerful mercenary, she soon made enough money to move her family into a very large house, with all the luxuries of nobles. She may look calm and relaxed all the time, but she is incredibly hyper and wild, fighting with and immense, unexplainable amount of energy, from an unknown source. Often considered one of the most powerful warriors on the planet, she is known far and wide.

The story sounds pretty cool so far. I can't wait to see a cinematic of it.

Good luck on the map!

 

[master maste]

ok i got to be quick, but dont make it so you change heros half way through etc to get new abilitys.

make it so that each hero has a spell book, add 5 spells and change the icon so it looks like a normal ability.

then when you think they need more just use a trigger to add another spell book (that you made before hand) so they have 2 spell books =10 spells or however many you want. search spell books if you dont understand.

and maybe make it so that they get the extra spellbook after they complete a quest.

 

[hellmonja27]

that would be a cool idea: i mean like in quests you have to retrieve spell books, like a spell book of fire where the spells are all fire or something. the more quests you solve the more spell books you have...

 

[Bunnyburn]

If I did what you said, then their abilities wouldnt get stronger, unless I triggered them all, which I don't want to do. My plan is almost exactly like that anyway, only after you upgrade all your abilities to the max level, they are put in a spellbook, and used as an ability, then you get five new ones, while keeping the old ones. Same as you said, only the abilities get stronger.

Hope you like my character models, spent a while looking for models that matched the bios I wrote (and yes, I got models depending on the bios I wrote, I didnt write bios on the models I found, except on the weapons part.)

 

[Bunnyburn]

Please help me, abilities, bosses, quests, etc.
