Fate-the universal principle or ultimate agency by which the order of things is presumably prescribed, it can't be changed it can and will happen right? But what if there are certain people who dare to challenge it? To change fate? Is that even possible?

in 1262 a young girl is laying a unfortunate merchant to rest...
in 1997 a young man is waging a revolution for his country....
in 2025 a young man is preparing for a simple contest.....
in 2065 a man has opened a portal through a computer and walked through it......
in 2260 a man has watched them all do this, then sickly laughs, throws a huge scythe over his shoulder and leaps into a portal...

1943: 15 years have passed since the Time Rift, which swallowed four full bustling cities on that faithful day, 60,000 people....gone, just like that, never to be seen or heard from again. The government assured the country that nothing like that will ever happen again, but the truth was....it could have happened at anytime, anyplace.......a scientest by the name of Rudolph Hinge the third, made a discovery that based on a crazy scientific experiment taken out by a scientest long ago, that Rifter, a being supposedly created by god, was doing this, and this was the days of atonement pulling. The shocking information stunned the government, and they felt the scientest was a lunatic, and ordered him killed......that night his lab was set on fire mysteriously, and burned to the ground.
in 2025 your story begins in a Virtual Reality battle dungeon contest formulated by Mr. Rex Cassel.....

Okay, this list is compiled from pretty much all the character descriptions. I'll try and get a similar time period from real life to match with the time the character is from, so bear with me. I've also included descriptions of the time periods the year most closely resembles.


1262 A.D. (Middle Ages)

The Middle Ages form the middle period in a traditional schematic division of European history into three "ages": the classical civilization of Antiquity, the Middle Ages and Modern Times.

The Middle Ages are commonly dated from the 5th century fall of the Western Roman Empire until the fall of the Eastern Roman Empire in the 15th century, or, alternately, the beginning of the Renaissance. These dates are approximate, and are based upon nuanced arguments; for other dating schemes and the reasoning behind them, see "Periodisation Issues", below.

A period of great change in culture, politics, science, society, agriculture and economics, the Middle Ages witnessed the first sustained urbanization of northern and western Europe. Modern European states owe their origins to events unfolding in the Middle Ages; European political boundaries as of 2007 are, in many regards, the result of the military and dynastic achievements in this tumultuous period.


1065 A.D (Viking Age)

The beginning of the Viking Age in the British Isles is commonly given as 793, when it is recorded in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle that the Northmen raided the important island monastery of Lindisfarne.

"AD. 793. This year came dreadful fore-warnings over the land of the Northumbrians, terrifying the people most woefully: these were immense sheets of light rushing through the air, and whirlwinds, and fiery dragons flying across the firmament. These tremendous tokens were soon followed by a great famine: and not long after, on the sixth day before the ides of January in the same year, the harrowing inroads of heathen men made lamentable havoc in the church of God in Holy-island (Lindisfarne), by rapine and slaughter." -Anglo Saxon Chronicle.

In 794, according to the Annals of Ulster, there was a serious attack on Lindisfarne's mother-house of Iona which was followed in 795 by raids upon the northern coast of Ireland. From bases there, they were able to attack Iona again in 802, cause great slaughter amongst the C?li D? Brethren, and burn the Abbey to the ground.

The end of the Viking Age is traditionally marked in England by the failed invasion attempted by Haraldr Har?r??i, who was defeated by the Saxon king Harold Godwinson in 1066; in Ireland, the capture of Dublin by Strongbow and his Hiberno-Norman forces in 1171; and 1263 in Scotland by the defeat of King H?kon H?konarson at the Battle of Largs by troops loyal to Alexander III. Godwinson himself was subsequently defeated within a month by another Viking descendant, William, Duke of Normandy (Normandy had itself been acquired by Vikings (Normans) in 911). Scotland took its present form when it regained territory from the Norse between the thirteenth and the fifteenth centuries.

The traditional definition is no longer accepted by most Scandinavian historians and archaeologists. Instead, the Viking age is thought to have ended with the establishment of royal authority in the Scandinavian countries and the establishment of Christianity as the dominant religion. The date is usually put somewhere in the early 11th century in all three Scandinavian countries, but for Denmark it can be argued to be much earlier, and for Sweden much later.

The end of the Viking-era in Norway is marked by the battle of Stiklestad, in the year 1030, They proclaimed Norway as a Christian nation and Norwegians could no longer be called vikings.

The clinker-built longships used by the Scandinavians were uniquely suited to both deep and shallow waters, and thus extended the reach of Norse raiders, traders and settlers not only along coastlines, but also along the major river valleys of north-western Europe. Rurik also expanded to the east, and in 859 founded the city of Novgorod (which means "new city") on Volkhov River. His successors (the Rurik Dynasty) moved further founding the first East Slavs state of Kievan Rus with the capital in Kiev, which persisted until 1240, the time of Mongol invasion. According to one author, the word "Rus" originally meant "Viking raider" [citation needed], as distinct from the native Slavic people. Other Norse people, particularly those from the area that is now modern-day Sweden and Norway, continued south on Slavic rivers to the Black Sea and then on to Constantinople. Whenever these Viking ships ran aground in shallow waters, the Vikings would reportedly turn them on their sides and drag them across the land into deeper waters.

The Kingdom of the Franks under Charlemagne was particularly hard-hit by these raiders, who could sail down the Seine River with near impunity. Near the end of Charlemagne's reign (and throughout the reigns of his sons and grandsons) a string of heavy raids began, culminating in a gradual Scandinavian conquest and settlement of the region now known as Normandy. The very name "Normandy" itself derives from the Norse settlers who had taken control of the region.

In 911, the French king, Charles the Simple, was able to make an agreement with the Viking warleader Rollo, a chieftain of disputed Norwegian or Danish origins - the material suggesting a Norwegian origin identifies him with Hrolf Gangr, also known as Rolf the Walker. Charles gave Rollo the title of duke, and granted him and his followers possession of Normandy. In return, Rollo swore fealty to Charles, converted to Christianity, and undertook to defend the northern region of France against the incursions of other Viking groups. The results were, in a historical sense, rather ironic: several generations later, the Norman descendants of these Viking settlers not only thereafter identified themselves as French, but carried the French language, and their variant of the French culture into England in 1066, after the Norman Conquest, and became the ruling aristocracy of Anglo-Saxon England.

1992 A.D. (Post-Communist Period)

With the dissolution of the Soviet Union in December 1991, the Russian Federation became an independent country. Russia was the largest of the fifteen republics that made up the Soviet Union, accounting for over 60% of the GDP and over half of the Soviet population. Russians also dominated the Soviet military and the Communist Party. Thus, Russia was widely accepted as the Soviet Union's successor state in diplomatic affairs and it assumed the USSR's permanent membership and veto in the UN Security Council; see Russia's membership in the United Nations.

Despite this acceptance, post-Soviet Russia lacked the military and political power of the former USSR. Russia managed to make the other ex-Soviet republics voluntarily disarm themselves of nuclear weapons and concentrated them under the command of the still effective rocket and space forces, but for the most part the Russian army and fleet were in near disarray by 1992. Prior to the dissolution of the Soviet Union, Boris Yeltsin had been elected President of Russia in June 1991 in the first direct presidential election in Russian history. In October 1991, as Russia was on the verge of independence, Yeltsin announced that Russia would proceed with radical market-oriented reform along the lines of Poland's "big bang," also known as "shock therapy."

Russia today shares many continuities of political culture and social structure with its tsarist and Soviet past.


1785 A.D. (The Age of Enlightenment)

The Age of Enlightenment was an eighteenth century movement in European and American philosophy, or the longer period including the Age of Reason. The term can more narrowly refer to the intellectual movement of The Enlightenment, which advocated reason as the primary basis of authority. Developing in France, Britain and Germany, its sphere of influence also included Austria, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Russia, Scandinavia, Spain and, in fact, the whole of Europe. Many of the United States' Founding Fathers were also heavily influenced by Enlightenment-era ideas, particularly in the religious sphere (deism) and, in parallel with classical liberalism, in the political sphere (which had a major influence on its Bill of Rights, in parallel with the Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen).

The era is generally agreed to have ended around the year 1800 and the beginning of the Napoleonic Wars (1804?15).

Grammar Error :: A Grammar Error occurred at line...

Error Error :: Error [Grammar Error] failed due to "Excessive Grammatical Errors"

Okay, I think it needs a little work, a lot of Grammar Debugging, and some map help. I'll be back later to see updates. Peace!

Off-Topic: See I'm very tempted to kill you for stealing sections of my name :D

Layout is a big thing for attracting the naked eye, I recommend making the layout more readable and eye catching. I couldn't be bothered reading it because of this fact.
 
well me being new to this site I'm just learning the buttons and such so expect to see it looking flashier in about an hour
and lol it seems we did pick similar names didn't we?
 
New features added
:thumbsup02: means it's already been designed, :sweat02:means it's still in development.

:thumbsup02:Card Magic- no not magic the card game, magic cards, the elemental abilities have finally been reduced to a deck of cards, you can buy them from stores and they have many special features, It'll have a whole deck of fire cards, Ice, water, earth, and any other elements I didn't mention, I will also have like a "mystery"card deck where you get assorted skills(based on variables).

:sweat02:Warp Gate- Just a little script that will teleport you to warp gates you've unlocked across the country, no credits, it will be made by me and later posted on Org.

:sweat02: Lover boy- Thanks to variables and my scripting ability you can suck up to 3 of the girls in your party, a rescue scene is even based off of who you like the most!

:thumbsup02:The "Daze" System- Actually this plays a major part in the battle system, being knocked dizzy can immobilize you just enough for the enemy to pull of a good combo, if caught at just the right moment, or at the wrong time, KABLAM! You're dazed, but I plan to put in a button to recover.

:thumbsup02:Transportation Actually I got this Idea from KH whereas you ride a ship, you actually have to ride a ship, for like a while or so, it will contain battles and minigames and interesting people, but for my impatient people, there's a cabin downstairs where you can sleep until your destination is reached.


:sweat02:Pride Gauge-Well you can kiss that little Sp bar goodbye, with this bar, it's very similar to street fighter, whereas you did a move, you lost like half a bar or something like that well, thats what I'm pretty much going for here, I'm thinking your bar max can be around 9. seeing as your ultimate attack always takes 100% of the bar. but your other skills vary according to their power, so basically it's like this
ex: high skill power, high bar usage low skill power, low bar usage
it's pretty simple to grasp the concept off.


Whew welll there you have it, could have went in the 1st post, yea, but I wouldn't be G-man if I did put it there
 
Hiya mate..

~(first)~
You should not double post! :P

Ok I like the name. I like the basic idea.
I hate! the face maker faces. get a artist to make you some original ones or else alot of people will start saying what im saying. I think its better to get a concept artist so you can show ideas.

OS is writing for me soo keep your hands off!!!! (only joking)

lol.
good luck and i hope you get to finishing the game and if you need bits of help dont be afraid to ask!
 
lol I comepletely agree, I want my stuff to be original but I want our artist to get a feel for what the characters look like. Oi sorry for the double post
