Princess Nights

This is my big project, and there is a lot I'm keeping secret for now.

Princess Nights by StrawberryBomb

The new generation of Plundonna Legends
  • Story Synopsis:
    The land of Plundonna. A peaceful land. The fair ruler King Lyon watches over the land from the castle just south of Massaro Town, where the farm girl Cydret runs the farm, with assistance from the son of Massaro's mayor. However, when the symbol of Massaro, a tree known as Old Maple, is heartlessly demolished, Cydret and Michael team up with water elemental Sydyn to bring the perpetrators to justice. But it ends up becoming something...something more.​
  • Characters:
    • Protagonnists:

      • Cydret: A 19-year-old farmer from Massaro, Cydret can grow crops and has limited communication with animals. She also has charming qualities. What will these qualities bring Cydret in the future?
      • Michael: The 27-year-old son of Massaro's mayor, Michael is already an accomplished battler. His mother does not like to let him go, but knows she has little control over her son's destiny. Michael, although tough, has a sensitive side that is almost as powerful as his tough side.
      • Sydyn: The 16-year-old water elemental, Sydyn lost her parents long ago. She visits her mother's grave daily, but still seems like she has never quite gotten over her mother's death. Her father died when she was a baby, so she barely knew him, although he is still close to her heart.
    • Antagonists:
    • Kalvora/Lerad: These two members of a group known as the Black Skull Cult seem to have an obsession with capturing the water elemental Sydyn. But what will happen once Cydret enters the picture?
    • Sub characters:
    • Miss Lollie: The mayor of Massaro Town and the mother of Michael, Miss Lollie lost her husband long ago, so Michael is all she has left, and as a result, it is tough for her to let him go. However, she knows that she cannot control destiny.
    • Bellina: This resident of Massaro is seemingly quite taken by Cydret. However, she is also shy, and therefore it is hard to know her true feelings, since she never voices her opinions.
  • Features:
    • Custom Menu and Battle systems
    • The Berry Shop run by Cassedy and Chase adds a new element to gameplay. There are some items that cannot be acquired without their help. You will have to figure out how to do this yourself.
    • Two hidden easter eggs. But I am not revealing anything else.
  • Screenshots:
    Coming soon :(
  • Script and Credits/Team:

    Used scripts:
    -LegACy's CMS
    -ccoa's UMS
    ...etc
    Graphics credit:
    -too many to list! Wait for the game to find out the entire list.
 
Hmm... is there any particular reason why the bad guys' names are exactly the same as Saturos and Menardi from Golden Sun, but with the last syllables swapped?

Just seems a little strange when all the other names are original (at least, I don't recognize them from anywhere else) but then there's two names that seem ripped directly from another game.

I can't put anything past you, can I? :D

But seriously, I put that in as a little tribute to one of my favorite games. Of course, now that I think about it, there are other, less obvious things that I could do instead. Thanks.

Do the names Kalvora and Lerad sound better, they were a couple of names I was going to use for other characters that have since been renamed.

Those sound pretty good actually. They fit together the same way that Saturos and Menardi's names do. You read either of those pairings and there is an instant connection.

The story sounds pretty cool. It doesn't strike me as the most exciting story I've ever heard, but that's just the outset of things. Where you take it from there will be the interesting part.
