Description: "I grew during a chaotic age, the age of the Hellgates. It was at this time we learned that we were not alone, sadly we learned this the hard way. Because from nowhere gates to countless other planes of existance had opened all around the world, there seemed to be no logic or reason behind this sudden event, and if there was a reason it was a very well kept secret....
At first nothing happened, there was just these huge portals of some odd rock standing in the middle of nowhere. Exept one day, all contact with one of the eastern provinces of the empire, Kastel, was lost. One of the Hellgates had opened in the middle of the country and creatures from all over the planes poured out, these were unintelligent animals but they were dangerous and caught the province by surprise, wiping out any civilisation there within days. Soon these creatures spread, and reproduced, however, many were carnivorous and life for the smaller unwalled villages became a constant battle.
Refuges started flooding to the larger cities like Gendalia and Ondarin, but soon these cities could take no more refuges and had to close their gates shut, leaving the remaining refuges to the wildlife outside...
Soon however Gendalia was about to have worse thing than outraged refuges thrown at them as suddenly an organised army stepped trough one of the Hellgates and the General, a man by the name of Arden Wroon requested an audience with the emperor, Rodais Silverblood. He was given his audience were he boldly proclaimed himself as King Arden Wroon the third of Astonia, High General of the Royal horde of Astonia. He told emperor Rodais Silverblood that he had two choices, either throw down arms and accept Arden Wroon as the new ruler of Gendalia, letting Gendalia became a part of Arden's Horde, or risk open war. All I am going to say is that the Empire of Gendalia did not take kindly to being offered ultimatums like that...
The war has now been going on for 30 years, and I was born sometime in the middle of it. All my life I have been working as an errand runner for Lord Orik Silverblood, General of the Wyrmblood crusaders.
I lived at the Silverblood Estate grounds, wich was located at a small island a few days travel away from the mainland. For this I considered myself lucky, seeing as our little island had barely been touched by the Hellgate hordes (wich is what the "Roal horde of Astonia" were called in laymans terms) I was able to live an average, comfortable and quite boring life. This was all about to change however...
One day it was decided that the two most formidable Generals of Gendalia would lead an assault on one of the hellgates, all we were ever told was that there was a plan behind this foolish action, something that would cripple the hellgate hordes to the point of no return.
This was operation Valor without renown, and the Generals who were going to lead the massive operation was Malutrius Kvahn and Orik Silverblood. Sadly for us our little island was recruited into war, every man and woman above the age of 15 was to take up arms and fight for "the glorious cause of the empire" as soldiers of Gendalia.
Orik however offered me the position of captain in his army, the Wyrmblood crusaders, as he did not want me to become another sacrifice in the name of Gendalia, this left little room for refusal, afterall, the offer was one I could not refuse.
Everything seemed to be going fine at first, but then everything went wrong, I can not fully recall the events but it left me standing alone in an empty battlefield with some useless rod and the instructions "Take the rod to Northend, take the rod to Northend or die........"
(In case you didn't notice, the description is written in first-person, the writer being your character)
Prepare to embark on a journey were you will have to use everything from your wits to brute strength to simply survive, still, the question is not "can you survive?" the question is, can you survive and remain the same person you was?
There is still -alot- to be done and it would greatly speed up the process if a few people would step in and help us. So, if you are interested and we are looking for someone like you then step right up and send an e-mail stating your interest to this adress: slick_dragon_ent@yahoo.co m
We are looking for:
An extra exterior area designer - To help in making the exterior areas, obviusly.
An extra scripter - We don't need you to be the all mighty god of scripting, but some experience would not hurt.
Painter - To draw some concept art, the kind that would appear in trailers
Voice overs - Right, this is one of the things that would greatly add to the immersion, so if you are interested in doing the voice-overs for one of the companions or one of the plot specific characters then we would be more than happy to have you. We would discuss wich character you would do the voice-overs for in private, because I can't really list all the characters here without making the list too tiresome to read or giving out some spoilers.
Permanent Beta tester - You would test every new change, then when the final product is done you would beta test that.
Composer - Another thing we could really use is some themes for the main title and for some of the plot specific characters.
So, if you are interested in doing any of these send an e-mail to slick_dragon_ent@yahoo.co m
Thank you
