Storyline: The Pleiades is the most powerful star cluster in the Milky Way. After many decades of aimless searching, a fugitive, banished after shattering the Pleiadian centerpiece, has finally been found on planet Earth. Vrillon, head master of the Pleiades, sends Zero, the first in a new line of "super androids" -- machines created using both human and demon DNA -- to capture the fugitive and bring him justice. However, Zero quickly learns that he is not the only one in search of this fugitive, who is slowly raising an army of his own to rage war against the Pleiades. Zero must find him and put a stop to his madness before he succeeds in building enough power to destroy the nation that banished him. However...things are not what they appear to be, and Zero finds himself caught in a web of deceit, death, and destruction. Is Seth the true threat, or simply a mere in pawn in a much grander scheme, and should the Pleiades be trusted? If Zero is not careful, he could become the very thing he was ordered to kill...
Setting: Earth in the year 2550. In 2530, an object from outer space made impact, forever contaminating Earth's air. In only a few years, over half of Earth's population succumbed to a "virus" which turns its victims into flesh-eating monsters. Those who have survived, sought refugee in "globes" scattered throughout the planet, massive cities protected by glass barriers to shield its citizens from the deadly virus. These cities manufacture their own, pure oxygen using 'Green Houses' that reside at the center of each globe. The globes themselves are divided into several 'districts', and citizens can travel from district-to-district using Subways. Because of the glass barriers, transportation runs on electricity, and not gas.
Main Characters:
NAME: Zero
AGE: ???
BRIEF BIO: Zero is sent to Earth from The Pleiades in order to find a massive-murdering demon expelled from the clusters. He is a slick man. Charming and mysterious, calm but dangerous, he’s as threatening to a woman’s lover as he is in the battlefield. However, underneath this façade of macho-ism, what is he really like?
As the game’s lead character, Zero is extremely useful in battle, good in all attributes. In addition to learning [SHOT] abilities, his [DARK] magic spells will prove to be useful on several occasions. He uses guns as his primary weapons.
NAME: Eve Reynolds
AGE: 21
BRIEF BIO: Eve is a receptionist at Sunset Hotel. She’s been engaged to her fiancé James, her high school sweetheart, for the past year, with a wedding date still in the air. Eve has a sharp tongue and a hot-headed personality, quick to say whatever’s on her mind. Despite this, she’s a good person who wants to help out.
Eve is one of the only characters who use healing abilities, making her a rare character. With Shield learned later in the game, Eve can protect herself against any attack from her enemies, making up for her low attributes. Poles are her primary weapons.
NAME: Cidney Ferrell
AGE: 29
BRIEF BIO: Cid runs the Light Years Disco, a nightclub in the downtown district. He’s known for being flamboyant, but charming and generally nice, but lately he’s tapped into the dark powers, transforming him into a power-hungry, status-seeking tyrant. Is the good Cid still inside, and can he be saved?
Cid learns some of the more unique spells in the game, particularly his “Need My Love” ability, which will save you a great deal of cash in the future. He uses the Lyre as his primary weapon.
NAME: Mia Wallace
AGE: 22
BRIEF BIO: Mia is one of Wayne Newton’s personal assistants. She was struck with the virus, but unlike most victims, her body quickly adapted to the organism, and she was able to control her new-found powers in no time. Mia is a seemingly cheerful, sweet woman, if a little eccentric at times…but does she have a secret?
Mia is one of the best spell casters in the game, learning extremely useful and versatile spells, including a healing spell of her own. Her primary weapon is the Dagger.
NAME: Jonah
AGE: ???
BRIEF BIO: Jonah as from The Pleiades, the same star Zero is from. The two met fairly early in Zero’s life, and have been friends and partners since. Jonah is cool, laid back and aloof, but when it’s time for duty, he quickly emerges as a responsible leader. Jonah often questions the true purpose behind his creation.
Jonah, being one of the few characters to learn [EARTH] abilities, is extremely valuable. His [THRUST] abilities will make short work of foes weak against physical abilities. His primary weapon is the Saber.
NAME: Wayne Newton
AGE: 27
BRIEF BIO: Wayne had a difficult time as a youth, with abusive parents and a hard life at school. One evening, he ventured inside a cursed cave and it changed his life forever. With his new powers, he took the world head on, eventually building an empire with Mia and Anita as his employees. However, is this enough to cure his rage?
Wayne learns some of the most dangerous abilities in the game. His abilities largely consist of [ELECTRIC] attacks, making him lethal against enemies weak against that element. His weapon of choice is the Grenade Launcher.
NAME: Anita Bowler
AGE: 40
BRIEF BIO: By day, Anita runs a small diner at the State Center district, but by night, she’s head of the weapons department at Newton Corp. She likes to talk trash the guys, but is also a mother-figure to the young female employees. She has a teen son, Jimmy, and although she loves him dearly, does she want something more?
Anita is physically the strongest female on the team, and almost half of her abilities involve the usage of her fists. The rest of her abilities consist of high-powered [FLAME] spells, including the deadly Sunspot. Her primary weapons are Gloves.
NAME: Fiji
AGE: 60?
BRIEF BIO: Fiji is a man of many secrets. He frequently “pops in” to assist Zero and the crew, but he doesn’t get into much detail about his motives or his personal life. Who does Fiji work for, and what is with the pendent he wears around his neck? What does he want with Zero? Just who is this man?
Fiji is a master spell caster, learning a plethora of high-powered assault magic. His abilities involving his [STAFF] pack quite a punch too. His primary weapon is, you guessed it, the Staff.
