BEGIN
You are a lone soul who landed up in a mist-filled place, unknown to all but you...and another wanderer. How did [he/she] end up here, you know not. One thing is clear - [he/she] wants to help you escape the place, to an era of your forefathers, to Normandy of 1415.
Here's the story of a Brume, whom you will guide in the city of Vaelnydd, finding friends and foes alike.
PLOT
You have travelled back in time to a fictional country set in Normandy of 1415, carrying with you baggage of the past. A [man/woman] follows you throughout the story, whose name can be [Ishmael/Ishtar/Custom]. This country is famous for three things - half-blood population, weird laws and a hastily covered-up past. Everyone's happy and prosperous here, until they aren't.
Now on to the main point - you have 3 things to consider.
Race
You can choose to be one of the four races - human, drakonne'er, ophid, vampyre - early in the game. Some races are powerful than the other. Half-blooded races [anything not human] will be affected by Vaelnydd's Enderbane and Sanctum laws and will have the following restrictions imposed on them [which you can and will break throughout the game] :
Half-blooded creatures may not gather in group of four or more. They may only promote peace and goodwill within their own race
They may sign up for army service during war-time. Refusal is a punishable offence by bonded-labour or execution.
Humans may not enter a marriage with any of the half-blood races listed in the law. Doing so will warrant an interrogation by the Silencers.
And many more...
Entry point
You can enter the country via 3 different places - each place will give you different story and you'll meet romantic interests and other important characters earlier or later depending on the place you chose.
Good
You are also given the option of choosing a good. Beware - this option is important and will play a role in determining the MC's past in the coming books. It'll also alter some options depending on the good.
