As far as story line goes, the whole basic plot of the game is this. There is a planet called "Naiogana" here exist goddesses and monsters. However humans weren't aware of their existence. One day an alien race came to "Naiogana" to destroy the human race and occupy it. Plane after planet. They are called "Apostles" they come down to the planet for that purpose only but to secretly take them out bunch by bunch without getting caught. These "Apostles" each have their own powers and origin and how they were developed. They are sort of artificial. Not made by man but a higher being. Not god, just another alien race that posses greater power.
Why you might ask? Why don't they just attack if they have powers? [Response]They all get sent from their own planet to various others. Some make it there and some don't, for those who don't they head towards a different direction. Sometimes they get there earlier or later than others. Besides they're not immortal, just powerful.
So 9 of them come down to the planet (actually 50 make it there)
The Apostles claim to bring the divine word of god and they will lead them to their heaven and salvation. The people cry and praise the Apostles and follow them. Thus they gain the religious people's power. They build an empire for them and aid them in order for them to accomplish this
glory. Aside the protagonists not having power and are humans find out about this or were already involved and soon to find out. It's not up to them to save the world, anyone can do it. They were just chosen for this particular game because they happen to be the main characters. This is pretty much the basics of the plot. Main characters fight off the Apostles to claim their planet back.

Ok well let's see since this is new about the game I will fukin tell you about....CALEVODIUM!!!!!
Calevodium is one of the first nine apostles to reach planet Naiogana. He has the eye of no limits. Basically it enables him to travel at blinding speeds and his job is to quickly and quietly destroy any villages that are trying to spread any unnecessary information of the apostles true plans. He is basically the assassin of the apostles. Quick to kill. And more often than not he is unseen. He shows undying devotion to his leader. If he needs to he can move so fast that he will quite literally vanish from eyesight and with that immense speed cut through flesh and bone without the use of a blade. His partner so to speak is lazellia. She has the eye of Chameleon. But you will learn more about her later on. Anyways that is all for now until I post about Souichiro. If you have any further questions about Calevodium then just ask me and I will be glad to tell you what you wish to know.

Alright now that I have a bit more time I can tell a bit about Souichiro. He is one of the few characters that get an apostles eye. He is 16 years of age and he is a noble. But his parents dislike him. In fact they hate him. They didnt want him to be born but were forced to due to the fact that they were of nobility. So becuase of this fact he hates his parents. But his older brother was always very protective over Souichiro. And for that Souichiro looked up to and loved him (in a non-homosexual brotherly way so I dont wanna hear any gay comments you bastards). Well after Souichro turned 13 his older brother dissapeared. All he left was a note and his katana. the note said "Souichiro there is a disturbance in our world and I am going forth to find out what it is. Dont go looking for me. Stay at home you will be safe. Keep my katana with you always. It will protect you from anything....evil. I love you little brother and I will see you as soon as I can." And he trained with that sword and once he gained his eye he had a reason to go looking for his older brother. Anything else you wanna know then just ask me.

Update!
Opening:
The project's opening has yet to reach completion! I'm having a few problems with the opening, nothing that I can't handle though.
Battle System:
The battle system will be a problem in the future, if this cannot be resolved then continuing the game will not be possible. Problems with the battle is: Team boss battles, Field battles, Ally system.
This is what I have so far that will cause problems in the future.
Quests and gameplay:
Problem with this is, the game is more of a movie than a game.
Example: You control your character for the shortest time and all of a sudden there is an event or cutscene, no action or adventure during gameplay. I have figured a way for this to be resolved but not entirely sure that this might work.
Solution:
Since each character has their own purpose or priority in the game, they go through obstacles to reach their goal or fate in the game.
Doing so they can do things such as walk around looking for clues, explore areas and ask around or do quests for people in order to get an answer from them. Whatever it takes to make the game an adventure yet exciting game to play. So I added a new system of HP, SP, EP. Health points goes down constantly in the game no matter what you do, slowly it goes down due to hunger. This would also make gold and silver in the game actually significant. Same goes for "Stamina points" it as well goes down just like your HP but not as slow. The more you run around the faster it goes down. Solution is to buy drinks or anything that is liquid to regain your stamina. Eye power, this differs from the others by the lowering of health and stamina. EP does not lower but rather increases. If used the EP goes down and will have to wait a period of time to regain back. Those who do not own an eye are replaced by nothing or MP Magic points. Those who can do any type of witch craft or sorcery has this bar. Same function from the EP, it also increases.
I will add more updates later, if you know have an idea or a solution to these problems, please speak your mind.

I see, so most of the game would be a movie? Well as of now that's how it seems, but that's what I'm trying to change. I want it to be more of a game than a movie. That's one of the problems we'll probably have in the game D: but because of the new health system it will be more of a game than a movie got any questions on anything up there? |

Since the Apostles are, in a sense, immortal, wouldn't the HP of those who have taken an eye go down slower?
(Unless this makes things too difficult programming wise. It's just a thought that crossed my mind.)

Mmm meh, they're not really immortal but age wise yes. They can live up to a couple thousands of years until their powers deplete. I like the idea for the official game though, it would be kinda hard to implement that onto rpg maker D: well actually it's possible. So we might have a chance. Any other ideas or questions concerning the game or from what I mentioned up there?

I don't want to make things difficult. >.< It was just an idea. Hmm... nope. I don't have any other ideas/questions floating around in my head at the moment. I'll let you know when I do though.

The more questions and ideas the better, this way we can take a step closer to a much more fun and better game play. As of now we're progressing slow this is why we need a bit of help with ideas and such.

Update!:
Opening:
The opening now is near completion, though the length is almost finished, the pictures and frames are still not all placed in yet. Or rather we don't know what TO place in there. What we're stuck in is the credits list, there aren't enough credits or slides to go on. Ideas of credits and things to put in as game play slides would be appreciated.
ABS System:
Action Battle System, having this is crucial to the entertainment of the game play. Without, there is no game play. If anyone can figure this out. Then half of the burden will be dropped from our shoulders.
Dash System:
Running is always fun and makes things easier to get by. We need someone to research on that. Other wise the Sp Stamina points will be of no use.
We need to rise and stand! We can't sit down and hesitate to help by researching. "Sorry I don't know how to do this, I can't" This kind of sorry excuses that will get us no where. Get up research do something instead of nothing. If this goes on then I shall take a break until everyone decides to come out and contribute.
that is all, any questions please ask.
