So Myself, Yensoo, and MFGGJ from Suikosource have started a Suikoden RMXP Project. I'm the writer and administrator, Yensoo is the character and graphics artist (he's still kicking out concept art right now), and MFGGJ is an Event Writer and currently our resource hunter. Since it's a suikoden game, we are guaranteed to all be Spriting for a very long time. We all have previous experience with RMXP and we are great at what we do but enough about us.
Like every Suikoden game before it, this is going to be a very big game. I'll go into the specifics of this project a little bit later, but because of the sheer size of the game, we are looking for anybody with RMXP experience to help us create this game. It does not matter what you are good at as long as you can provide a sample of your work, or if you can cook something up real fast, we can find something for you to do.
Specifically We are looking for:
-Mapper
-Scripter
-Ripper
-Spriters
What we really need right now is a mapper. If you are a mapper I will personally pay you in foot rubs. I don't even care about your hygiene, your feet can be green and I'd still be grateful enough to touch them. Truthfully, I believe most of the scripts we'll need are all ready written but in my experience you never tell a scripter that they cannot join, who can say no to a custom battle system. We probably don't need a ripper either, I have the interior tiles from Suikoden 1 and 2 but they are unfortunately in rm2k3 format so I need to convert them and I don't feel the need to rip a world map. Sprites on the other hand...

Story
Our game takes place between 446 - 448 SY (Solar Year). It takes place during the War of Succession where in the Scarlet Moon Empire. The crown prince Barbarossa's father Michelan has died and his Uncle Geil bribes several nobles to rename him the successor instead, throwing the entire region into a bloody civil war. This brutal civil war leaves the Empire vulnerable to invasion from surrounding countries...
Protagonists
Barbarossa Rugner
The crown prince of the Scarlet Moon Empire. Unlike most protagonists, Barbarossa's story is darker. We watch Barbarossa develop from an Ideal driven man of untold integrity and strength degenerate into a man of questionable moral values, willing to sacrifice the Empire he fought so hard for a vague glimpse at the life he lost during the very war that brought him into power.
Teo McDohl
Before Teo became the man of unwavering loyalty who would live or die by the word of his master he was very different. Teo became one of the Great Generals because of his combat prowess and ability to command during war. However, at the beginning of the story Teo is unable to trust anyone both above him or below he questions his superiors, he blithely disobeys orders, and puts himself at risk doing tasks that he should be trusting to underlings.
Odessa Silverburg
Odessa is the standard Suikoden hero's journey character, except she isn’t a silent protagonist. Odessa’s journey as a character is that of the reluctant hero who becomes more than she ever thought she could be.
