That's it for now. Check back for updates- I have a lot planned. This is just the bare bones of what you can expect.
Four years ago, a group of exiles took over Scarabia. Archer Cross, Amelia Cheres, and all their exiled friends took advantage of our generous laws and put themselves in a position of power. Soon enough the rebellion spread, and next thing you know, hundreds of years of tradition had been forgotten- like they were nothing.
They weren't fond of our government. They didn't like the way we ran things. But that shouldn't have mattered. They were exiles- criminals- and they had no say in it, or shouldn't have had any.
So where are we now? Hiding, waiting for our chance to strike back and take what is our birthright. Proper order will be restored.
Characters
Gunplay, Pit Fights, and the Battle System
As I mentioned, Serren likes to use his guns, and throuhout the course of Sandfall, he will have a wide variety of them. There are different types of guns, determined by the type of ammunition that the guns use. For example, there are revolvers that use plain bullets, usually six at a time, or there are pistols that use cartridges that can hold up to thirty. Different guns will have different stats as well, such as how long it takes to load or aim the gun. Serren will have to balance many factors along with his ammunition.
Serren will also find himself fighting in close-combat in the form of Pit Fights (see: short game Prize), which use a unique action-based battle system. He'll have a hard time keeping up with some of these enemies, especially since many Pits disallow the use of firearms.

Serren Kraye
I don't know much about him, other than his reputation. He's a skilled gunfighter, and he's very cocky. They say that his lover was executed a year before the rebellion and that Serren's a bit of a lost soul now, searching for a long-lost city to fill some sort of hole in his heart. I don't understand it- his lover was just an exile.Serren Kraye

Barzhad Judhan
Everybody knows all about this ugly brute- and how he was one of Archer Cross's generals in their rebellion. They say that he spends most of his time now doing whatever he wants, including entering the pit fights, the animal from the southlands that he is. He has a fierce loyalty to Archer and this "new world" government. They say that he will play a role in times ahead.Barzhad Judhan

The Dune Knight
This guy is the most talented and feared bounty hunter in Scarabia. He worked for the noble families during the "true world"- what they now call the "old world". He's famous as an exile hunter, and it was he who brought Serren's lover to the nobles for execution five years ago. Times have gone by and he is no longer in the position that he once held, struggling to work as a mercenary in this new world. Maybe I can help him out...The Dune Knight

Ice
I am called Ice, a nickname I earned not only for the light color of my hair but for the cold stare in my eyes, and I am proud to have noble blood running through my veins. My family was just about destroyed during the rebellion, and I have since taken to leading a group known as "Cold Blood", devoted to restoring the proper order of things. I have heard that the legendary Crystal City will be able to give me more power than I can imagine, and I can certainly imagine a lot. I will stop at nothing to restore Scarabia to the way it was.Ice

The game's battle system is currently being scripted by Mr. Mo, one of the more prominent and skilled scripter's on the forums I'm confident that he'll do a great job with what I've given him to work with, and as soon as he's finished and I work with the system in action, I'll share information here.
