STORY
In feudal Miona, (no, there is no war you have to stop in this game... just a name for the country this takes place in) within a town named Khelin, resides a Dojo where two people, a young boy and girl, live. Seth, and Mina. These two train day after day, since they are orphans. With nowhere to go, they simply train, getting ready to head on out into the world. They receive an order from the master of the dojo to deliver a package to his friend in the village north-west of Khelin, Reale. Seth and Mina set off to Reale, deliver the package, and rest at the inn. They head home, unknowning of the ominous event that happened during the night...
Once they arrive back at Khelin, the town is deserted. Everyone is gone, along with all the tame animals. The town looks exactly like how they left it, but no one is there. Seth and Mina attempt to stay there in Khelin for the night, but monsters raid the village with no one else there. So Seth and Mina decide to live in Reale...
... only to find out that Reale is completely deserted too, except for a small child, and a nearly dying mother. "These strange people attacked... they shot everyone with these strange metal things... they called them "guns", but I don't know what they are... they took everyone, and left me for the dead... my little girl hid from them, though..." says the dying mother, in pain.
"They were dressed in this strange green leather." Says the small child. "They were scary..."
And that's when the game beings. Later, Seth and Mina meet two other people to aid Seth and Mina in their journey to find out what happened to the two villages. They meet up with who exactly is behind this, and what his ambitions are... his power even seems otherworldly, as if his power and technology were thousands of years advanced from everyone else's.
In the middle of the game, the game skips forward 3 years, and all that happened in the past is resolved.
SPOILERS
IN A COUPLE LINES...
A little after the snowfields near Khelin, there is a huge field of darkness, that spreads across the world. On the other side, the temperature is drastically different than the other side. Tundra on one side, desert wasteland on the other. This is due to a rip in the fabric of time, someone not from the time that Seth and Mina occupy has come, from the future. This man from the future, has brought advanced technology, such as automobiles, guns, electricity, and other things alien to those living in the present.
The man from the future wishes to use magic, which is a legend in his time, and fuse it with the technology of the future. He does this, and takes the animals of the present, and morphs them into twisted beings called "chimeras".
Seth and Mina ruin his plans in the man's Hidden Facility located within the Mist Mountains, and destroy it. The man from the future has been near mortally wounded from this, and is near death.
3 years pass.
The man from the future used his chimera research on himself to stay alive. This twists his mind, and makes a plan to grow stronger with his chimera research. With his army of chimera soldiers and beasts, he is ruler of the world, sitting atop his tower in Chromagia City. With oppresion about in the world, Seth, is fed up, and leaves his home to Chromagia City, to finish what he started.

CHARACTERS
Seth:
Age: 14
Weapon: Spear
Technique Type: White Magic
Seth is a frail boy, and doesn't talk much unless Seth knows them. He's a bit on the shy side, but he can be quite brave when someone is in trouble, or, rather if Seth himself is in trouble. He's no coward, but sometimes his personality can pass him off to be a bit cowardly. Seth has no family, and was found along with a mother and father, attacked by monsters. Seth is constantly thinking on how he is going to survive when he becomes an adult. Seth is oblivious to the fact that he is vital to possibly the survival of the very world he lives in. Seth is friends with Mina, and often calls her "Sis" because of the roles she takes in Seth's life.
Mina:
Age: 15
Weapon: Sword
Technique Type: Heavy Weaponry (think Edgar from Final Fantasy VI)
Mina comes from the word "protector". She is overprotective of her friend, Seth. Bold, brave, and outspoken, she is the strongest one in the village, even though guys at the Dojo believe that men are superior in all aspects. Mina proceeds to make them cower in fear every time they face Mina. Mina has no family, as her mother died when giving birth to Mina, and her father commited suicide because of the grief he went through. Mina now lives with the master of the dojo along with Seth, since they have nowhere else to go. Mina is often called "Sis" by Seth, because of her protective nature.
Lloyd:
Age: 18
Weapon: Staff
Technique Type: Black Magic
Lloyd is a traveler who wishes to see the world, and improve his cooking abilities (yes, he is a chef :smile. He a quiet person, with nothing much to say, he's more of a listener than a talker. Coming from an aristocrat family from a far away country, you won't find him wearing anything else that's not expensive, a suit, for instance.
Lilly:
Age: 14
Weapon: Knives
Technique Type: Artifacts (Like Mina's Weaponry, Lilly can use Artifacts.)
Lilly lives in a hidden village in a large forest west of Khelin. She is pure, and very smart, and quick to jump to conclusions. Seeking acceptance, she tries her hardest to fit in, and fails all the time. When Seth and Mina arrive in her village, Lilly is attacked by a monster. Saved by Seth, it's a "love at first site" and Lilly falls for Seth. Seth, completely oblivious to this, doesn't notice her saying "my man in shining armor saved me!" and just goes on normally.

If the screenshot thing isn't working, or if it's that I haven't switched to FF3 yet, here are the links.

That is NOT the text box I will be using. I'm experimenting.
And don't comment about my mapping skills, those aren't even finished. Woohoo.
I will add more screenshots later, as soon as I get some sleep.

FEATURES
Many secret dungeons, while not entirely secret, they hold tons of goodies, and have bosses that will own you if you're not prepared. They're the OMGWTFBBQ bosses. Heh.
I'm debating on whether or not to include an ATB system or the normal RPGXP system. I can't decide.
Maybe some custom stuff. Sprites, windowskins. Definately not music. I'm not experienced in that sort of thing yet...
