Basically, once I found out about RMVX, I stopped making the game for XP, and just went into planning and such. Finally, when VX was released, I began putting the story together and such. Yes, I do use RTP for my game because 1. I suck anything graphic, and 2. I'm working on this game by myself. I focus a lot more on story, which is fortified by a nice atmosphere provided by the game. So with much further a-do, here is Temperance!Story
"A father's dying wish becomes a son's burning destiny."
It was an anarchist group created by a man named Corias Venditti, bent on bringing down the Isthian aristocrasy. It was a war meant to forever change the face of Priteria by redefining new boundaries for countries across the planet... but it was not intended to last for twenty years. The Crystal War, as it was called, had brought the planet to its knees. Dragging on three countries; Isthia, Sifia, and Oeilvert, into a conflict that would claim hundreds of thousands of lives. The main players, Isthia and Sifia.
Brock Solias was a prominant member of the Kiltias, known across the entire Isthian Kingdom for his verocity and intelligent mental capabilities. Brock was recruited into the group by Corias, who was very persuasive... promising Brock many things that would all end in disappointment.
Protestors of the war, the Kiltias attacked Isthian naval bases and other such government buildings in an attempt to bring the conflict to a halt. This would not suffice, however, as the Kiltias were quickly out-numbered and over matched. Soon, Brock wanted out of the Kiltias. When news reached Corias, he reactted by assassinating Brock.
Brock had married during his time in the Kiltias. He wed the beautiful damsel Mariah Roanoke of Oeilvert. They had a son, whom they named Dante. When Corias attacked Brock and Mariah, Dante was sent to live with Lady Mary in Isledon.
Seventeen years after these events, we now fast-forward to contemporary Valendia. The war had just ended; Isthia and Sifia had finally come to terms, losing much more than they had hoped to gain. Peace seemed to last for eternity... until...
Oredae, a small village located east of the Cascade Mountains in Southern Valendia, had been attacked by a group of unknown bandits. One of the survivors, Sophia Cross, was quick to retreat and try to get help. She was too late however, and the damage had been done. It seems that the Ares Medallion, a treasure passed down by the Oredian Barons for centuries, had been stolen. The purpose? It is unknown. Sophia now travels to Isledon in search of answers... this is where our story begins.

Priteria is the name of the fantasy world that Temperance takes place in. It is divided into four major continents; Valendia, Vrene, Rinoan, and Erania. There are also three major countries which are involved in the story; Isthia, Sifia, and Oeilvert. Throughout the game, the protagonists travel across the globe during their adventures and explore a variety of places. Valendia, which is the continent the game beings on, is host of four towns; Isledon, Solace, Oredae, and Redeia. The game begins with Sophia arriving at Isledon, and it goes from there.

Corias Venditti
Age: 47
Backstory: Corias Venditti is the founder of the Kiltias. He used to be in the Isthian senate, but was framed for the murder of a diplomat and was relinquished from his duties as a senator. Corias grew poor and turned to thievery to support himself, landing him into a lot of trouble with a lot of the slums' nastiest villains. He began to organize a group of bandits and assassins, which started to grow exponentially. Soon, they ran the underground of Isthia, and soon threatened the government itself. As big in numbers as they were, they were no match for the power of Isthia's military. The Kiltias ran away, never to be seen in Isthia again.
This is where Corias met the profound Brock Solias. They became close friends and Corias appointed him second-in-command. The Kiltias grew strong, unchallenged by anything. Corias waged war on Isthia, attacking its villages along the coastline. He then began targetting members of its senate, slowly killing them off. The king felt it was time to take action against these anarchists. Once again, Corias proved no match for the fighting machine that was the Royal military. They retreated, never to be seen for quite some time.
Fast forward thirteen years later, Corias and Brock stood in front of each other as enemies. A decisive battle, Corias slain Brock, ending a fragile alliance within the Kiltias. The clan was divided, and began to fight within each other. It is here that people say the Kiltias was desolved. No one has heard of Corias since.
