I got better. I think. ;P
Jul. 27th, 2003 04:29 amCreator's block finally beginning to disappate. At long last. Which is good, because I've got a rather ambitious pic planned out, which I intend to finish in a few days. Emotional confusion still around and evil, but what the hell.
I had a sudden flash of inspiration (sorta) And I came up with a new-ish saga which sounds rather anime-ish. I still have a lot more to Iron out, but hey, it's getting there. Coming soon to a swamp near you!
Phase 2
Format
Anime? Manga? Story? Anything? Sounds the most anime, though.
Setting
A dark, Digimon-Tamers-esque real-world like setting. The gradual return of the dragons, whom have went into a phase of dormancy (and hid in the form of humans. Humans with the potential to transform have something to do with the constellations (What it is is unknown yet.)
The villain is obsessed with acquiring a certain Ark whom he believes is the key for a certain power (the ark proves to be more than that. It appears that the ark is sentient, and it has its own agenda... And it eventually possesses the villain in order to do so, Indeed giving him a certain power, but at the cost of his own self. Was it worth it? I'm not sure. But It's an unavoidable RPG Clich×™.) The Ark has been dormant for as long as the dragons, and it has something to do with the dragons.
When the Ark's sentiency begins to be awakened (near the beginning of the saga), the dragons reborn begin to be rewakened as well.
The Dragons and the Sentient Ark originated in the same place, but they seem to be opposed forces. How they came to earth is unknown.
Dragons
Phase2 dragons are much different... They share attributes of many Breath of Fire dragons, in fact, mainly the Aura Dragon.
The typical Phase2 dragons have sleek-design heads attached to a longish (but not too long) neck that's usually in a curved stature (straightened when dragon is roaring, for instance). The body is somewhat humanoid (Aura-Dragon-esque). Arms are longish and three-taloned. often having blades at the 'elbows. Legs are more muscled-looking, and often have are five-taloned, sort of like the human leg (but not quite similar in shape). Wings are often VERY stylized. Tails are most often long and thin. The body is usually scaly, the underside in a different color than the rest of the body. larger scales form pseudo-armor around the chest area and on the shoulders and knees. Often these larger scales are the same color as the underside scales.
Coloration - Often combination of Dark hues (main body) and Light hues (markings, armors and underbelly scales). Eyes often glow. Obviously, the natural variance in form and markings derives from the type of elemental attached to the Dragons.
The Dragons posess certain gems in the middle of their chest armor. This is the source of their power. The only way to truly kill a dragon is to destroy these gems, though it takes something much more powerful than even the dragons to shatter the gems.
Dragon Elementals:
- FLAME: Fire Based (Non-Elemental Attack Capability).
- MIST: Water Based (Ice Attack Capability).
- STORM: Wind Based (Electric Attack Capability).
- DRYAD: Grass Based (Poison Attack Capability).
- SAND: Earth Based (Metal Attack Capability).
- AURA: Light Based
- CHASM: Darkness Based
(Aura and Chasm lack an "Attack Capability" because their power used in conjection forms this effect.)
More to come...
