Plaine FR
(A side project, will start it after Plaine is finished.)
Yes, the game is called Plaine FR, it has nothing to do with a Plane though, I would call it Plain FR, but it doesn't sound as good.
Basically, since I just got RMXP again, my old computer is f***ed and I've lost all data on it, Plaine will be a game using everything that comes with the normal RTP, which means no scripts, no custom sprites or tilesets, the only custom thing will be the Title screen.
Idea:
I got this idea about 10 minutes ago when I wanted to make a game but had none of my old resources etc., so I
decided to make one based only on the RTP, this way, no one can complain about the graphics, as it is RTP Standard, hehe.
Story:
[You (\n[1]) choose which class you want, and male or female], and then basically, it's like a free roaming RPG, You can do sidequests for people, and just level up yourself outside of the towns, just imagine it like an MMORPG such as WoW or Runescape, or even MapleStory: Doesn't have a storyline, just a free roaming RPG with side quests.
Yes, this may sound boring, but hey, it's a change to the usual RPG's with the same ol' storylines, you wake up, go save a city or the world by going into a cave, blah blah the end your now king. I find them kind of boring, so a free roam could be good to some of you.
Features:
None really, except you get to join the Plaine Clan (Yes, Plaine is a Clan), and might put some evented features in.

Now compatible with Windows XP and Vista !
It can also be played by people without the RGSS Player !
Idea: The idea of this game came to me the same was as Plaine FR did, when I lost my data from my old computer, and wanted to make a new game, this is the game, it will use ONLY RTP stuff which means no scripts or custom items.
Story:
As you start the game, after inputting the name, gender, and class of your character, you are in a room with 5 Thieves, they are a cult that believe sacrificing you will make god welcome them to heaven, they aren't a main point of the game, just something to introduce your characters.
As they are about to kill you, a mysterious Lancer (With skills/spells too lol) jumps in and saves you.
After this cutscene, he tells you that he is from a clan, which is located in an area called Plaine, they are a secret group of people who each have their elemental powers and are in the middle of a war with the various cults etc. around the world of Etherdal (May change name).
You are able to join the Plaine clan, which is the main storyline, which you have to join anyway.
This man, (Hasnt got a name yet), tells you which direction to head, to get to their base/headquarters, and then he jumps away, From here, your journey is through a big forest that is filled with enemies, some are easy to fight, others are hard.
Once you get to the Base/HQ, you are assigned positions, and then given the choice to use an element, there are four to choose from and each party member can have one, but must not have the same.
From here on it is basically a free roam, which means I may cancel Plaine FR and just have it as one project as suggested.
Sidequests:
The sidequests can be small ones such as deliveries, or killing a certain amount of monsters, while some can be large ones with their own storyline, which will be quite unique.
Main quest:
The main storyline of the game is to go around stopping all these cults as they are kidnapping people and trying to sacrifice them, although, one of the cults actually manage a successful sacrifice, but say the wrong words, which opens up a portal to the underworld, and you and your team go to investigate.
While inside you are faced against by monsters and also puzzles that you must solve to find out how to close this portal (Oblivion I guess), there ARE still some villages in the underworld, although they aren't the most friendly as they are monsters.
The lord of the underworld, the Lich King, is the reason as to why this portal opened, he explains how he will be using these souls to harvest the elemental power, as to which he is weak against, and use it upon the world of Etherdal, because, although he doesn't want to show it, he is jelous that we can live together piecefully and use these elements everyday.
Lich Kings Background (Requested by second_crimson):
Centuries ago, the Lich King, formally known as King Ahrbon, came across the elemental ores of the planet, but found out that he could not contain it around his body, so he left it and returned back to his kingdom, he realised that he had been living around these elements but his weakness had only just triggered inside his body, so he decided that in order to live, he would have to move away from all of these elements, and stay somewhere they were never in use, so he hid inside a cave, he stayed here for many years, hunting without equipment and learning to survive, until one day, a crack in the rock had a red light shining through it, so he peered in, it was a fire element, the rock exploded and because his body had made contact with the element and the effects made him mutate into a skinny lightskinned creature, still able to maintain the human anatomy, he felt better this way, although he was still weak towards the elements, and he felt as if he would explode every second, the managed to maintain this state, and ran into the crack, where a portal to the core of the planet lay, he hid away down there, and noticed that the elementals had also mutated into monsters and orcs etc. and from this day on, they have been his army, the core is now his kingdom, his kingdom is the underworld.
When the elements are set off, you must get back to the surface and stop each one from destroying your home world, you are assigned a town or city to look after, and make sure that the elements don't do any harm to the people, the only way necessary, Fight them !
Battle System:
The battle system will be as standard, unless I have time to event a battle system, but because you each have elemental attacks, you need to be careful and choose the elements weakness, otherwise you'll be healing it and making it stronger, which isn't a good thing.
Another (Feature might not be the word) thing about the Battle system, is that when you enter the city or town, it comes up as a Battle Zone, which means you can attack Civilians, however these will end up giving bad consequences.
What is Plaine? (Requested by second_crimson):
Plaine is a location, which has a clan, in which the members are on constant quests and missions to rid the planet of the cults, They are good, not evil, they have a base/headquarters of which they host missions and quests (When you are the highest rank you can generate missions and choose three people to come with you !)
Screenshots:
At the moment, I'm only releasing two screenshots, although I will compile a small demo for you all to try out and give feedback,
These screenshots are from the VERY beginning where you create your character:

I will edit this with more info when I've started making it.
