Hey All:
Our writer is almost done with writing up a story for the campaign.
I'd like to ask your opinion before we move on to working on art part.
So if you have a spare few seconds here is a short intro to the story, please put a comment indicating if :
1. It is interesting and you would like to see in the game how this unfolds
2. It is boring as f*** and you would like us to work on different idea (some proposals are welcome)
3. It is not that bad, however some things need to be corrected (some hints would be welcome)
.
Thanks!
Long ago, in a universe far away, there once existed a galaxy of Space Vikings...
For one hundred years the house of Starfall had ruled over a small world in a remote section of the quadrant. Life had been good, for a time. Things had remained the same for as long as any elder could remember. Glorious battles. Easy hunting. Mugs filled with mead. Fate seemed set on remaining steadfast and constant for many years to come. And it continued as such until the day young Kronoss, youngest prince of Starfall was born.
On that day, Hemspher the eldest and wisest witch of hold spun King Starfall a tale of grave news. Far away, across the distant stars, a powerful armada lead by a powerful house had begun the gathering of a massive armada. A fleet of a one thousand ships were being constructed. Thousands of powerful warriors and vicious heroes were making ready to lead their fellow men to glory.
The King thought for a long time, until finally he asked: How long do we have to prepare?
"If the gods allow," said the old witch. "We may have twenty years before the grand armada arrives to conquer us all."
The hall burst into laughter. No one had seemed to take the threat seriously. No one except King Starfall himself. Twenty years seemed like such a long time and for so long, the armada felt far away. But for twenty years, the people could stare up at the sky and see that entire stars had vanished from the heavens.
The King trained his sons for those twenty years, including Kronoss. They were trained in sword and shield. They were trained in bow and fist. They were trained in firearms and how to wear the armor of their ancestors and how to fly ships of their own.
Twenty years past and the grand armada arrived. Watched the fleet, the people of Starfall felt so ready, but they were still no match for their awesome might. In one day, the house of Starfall crumbled and prince Kronoss found himself adrift in empty space for a long time. Alone in his ship, he almost went mad. That is, until his ship's sensors located a strange, yet inhabitable planet. Kronoss couldn't believe his good fortune. He checked the sensors again and again. The answer was the same. A place for him to land was close at hand. But his ship was damaged and low on fuel. It flew well in space, but could not handle the new gravity of the planet. As his ship entered the atmosphere, the alarms began to ring and prince Kronoss found himself on a deadly course to the ground below.
