Description:
The world, born from the Titaness Vita’s bloated corpse is dying. The Cycle of Rebirth coming to a close and bringing with it, the end of the world. To the East an army led by the Lich Queen waits in the shadows of the Fell Mountains. In the Forests of Old, a new god will soon awaken- born of madness and hoping to defeat an ancient foe risen from the dead. And, to the West, strange mirages have started appearing upon the horizon. But how does this all affect you?
Well…
That's up to you to decide my forgotten friend.
The first of many heroes you are bound to a fate within the shadows of hell and doubt. For when you wake... you'll find yourself in a field- lost and alone. With not a memory of who you were or where you'd even come from. If you had friends or foes. A family? Nothing! All but the vaguest hum of déjà vu and the knowledge that you were once... something to keep you company. Everything of your past, who you once were, GONE! Locked away behind shadows and blurs. Sealed away by something...
Powerful.
Wrong...
And if that weren't all, it looks as if the world around you has fallen to misery. Death and despair around every corner, lying in wait to consume the innocent and the foul. It is a dangerous world for an amnesiac. But, maybe... maybe this is the perfect chance for one such as you. To go from something forgotten and small into something more.
Hope you survive at least.
Features:
1. A chance to choose your own appearance (race, skin, hair, etc) or go totally default!
2. Romance and/or befriend Villains or Heroes alike
3. Witness the End of the World- and maybe save it before it all goes to shit!
Demo Link: TBA
More Info:
+ Personality Stats
For the time being, the Forgotten One’s Personality has three CORE personality options based on their dialogue and internal monologue choices. That way it'll slowly start to stack over time with whichever core Personality that the player favors. And by the end of the Demo, whichever of the three Core personalities that the player chooses the most will become set for the remainder of the game! The effects of the player character’s personality will usually be seen in the case of flavor text, specialized dialogue, internal dialogue, and character commentary.
Note: That the player’s personality (both primary and secondary) will have nothing to do with how the player flirts or reacts to being flirted with by the Romance Options.
Primary Personalities.Charmed: This one can bluff, bargain, and bemuse their way through most social situations in life. But! Be careful not to come off as too cocky- else you’ll find yourself thrown.
Diplomatic: A person who is slow to offense and is quick to calm any situation when it comes to their words. Tactful, this one gains the ability to maneuver most situations with a calm head. But, don’t let others see you as too much of a pushover.
Fighter: You like to pull the first punch and shove yourself right into the thick of a fight, don’t you? Well, this is the core personality for you! Aggressive and more than willing to confront those around you. Just… be sure not to cause too much strife, yeah? Otherwise, you might find yourself all alone.
Dialogue for each of the Core Personalities will appear as follows:[Charmed] "Hello Sers, let’s put down the flaming swords now and use those poor- unused minds of yours, No?" A trick of the tongue and a beaming smile has them eating out of the palm of your hand.
[Diplomatic] "Let's just take a moment to calm down, yes?" hands raised, sweet, unassuming. Easy pickings if not for the overwhelming sense of magic. It's a miracle that the bandit takes a chance to listen.
[Fighter] You throw a punch, striking the poor fellow right in the gut. No questions asked.
Secondary Personalities.
While the main three personality options will take precedent, the MC's Personality can also be further affected by the following secondary personality traits:
Helpful: A person who would sooner help than hinder. Sympathetic, let us hope that no one puts the entire world on your shoulders.
Sarcastic: This one takes the piss out of everything and everyone. Jokes and smiles follow quick at hand. However, remember, there is always a time or place for everything. Even assholery.
Tearful: Some of us just want to play the crybaby. Overly empathetic and stressed. This one lets it ALL out. Just hope that you gain SOME backbone when the time comes.
Blunt: Straight to the point. They don’t have the time to mince words on bullshit like small talk. They’ve got places to be thank you very much.
Aloof: Emotions are not the easiest to come by for this one. Whether from trauma or disinterest they keep their heart well off their sleeve.
Dark: Morbid, ill thinker, it does not matter. This one has embraced the shadows from whence they came. Fatalist. But unfortunately, not everyone’s cup of tea.
Example:[Charmed][Dark] "Oh, how lovely. One guess what that stain might be..."
[Diplomatic][Tearful] You can already feel the tears on the edge of your vision, blurring the world as the mage pauses to take it all in. ‘Ser, please…’
[Fighter][Helpful] ‘The victims of this atrocity will be avenged. You have my sword.’
“You mean your word?"
‘No.’
Note: As mentioned before, the Forgotten One’s Personality will eventually set once the demo has been complete. However, there will be chances to change... for better or worse.
+ Romance
Within the demo for Lich Gate the MC has a chance to meet all Seven of the possible romance options. The Following is a quick character sheet for the possible Romances. Spoilers ahead.
❅The Lady in armor❅
Name: Lamis Bashar
Alias: Lady B (By associates), The ALMOST Sultana (By Laz), Lami (intimate relations.)
Gender: Female (not customizable)
Pronouns: She/Her
Age Range: Mid to late thirties
Species: Human
Class: General (close combat)
Weapon: A crook’d spear.
Romance Option: Yes. However, Lamis is only romanceable towards those who are male or male presenting.
Romance Style: Hot and Cold
Appearance: Tall, almost impossibly so, lady B stands just shy of 7ft/213.36cm. With a swimmer’s build and a lancer’s training it is no surprise that the lady hides a muscular physique beneath her many layers of roughspun silk and armor. Drenched in fine jewels. She possesses calf-length caramel hair kept in a tight braid, dull yellow eyes, olive skin, and dramatic kohl lining her eyes and that of her lips.
Description: Wandering the kingdoms of Edalehan and Ibereli with her merry band of misfits, the lady spends much of her days foregoing her royal duties for the call of adventure. Believing that she may do more good for the people out there in the thick of it over that of a throne room. It is yet unknown whether or not she’s bitten off more than she can chew.
But, good luck telling her that.
The first romance option (technically the second) that the Player will meet during their journey. Lady B, born Lamis Bashar, is the great-granddaughter of the prior Sultana and an unknown consort - now the leader of a mercenary band. She finds the player lost upon the roads to ruin and takes pity, bringing them into her guild without so much as a second thought. She spends much of Lich Gate’s beginning aiding the MC in regaining their lost memories.
Notes:
Both Lady B and Bernie are distant cousins, hence the similar eye colors
Lady B owns a Pogona Lizard named Princess. Princess lives within her sleeve and will sometimes rest atop her shoulders; judging those around her.
☼The Noble knight☼
Name: Ser Bernadette Emili Regis Narcissus Ingle of Noble House Bulgari
Alias: Bernie, B.B. (by Laz), Berns (Laz)
Gender: Nonbinary, born AMAB.
Pronoun: They/Them
Age range: Mid-Twenties
Species: ‘Human’
Class: Cavalier
Weapon: Sword and Shield.
Personality: Honest | Kind | Romantic | Naive
Romance Option: Yes. Bernie is Romanceable to a player of any gender. However, they prefer good-nature MCs.
Romance Style: Flustered and drowning in courtly romance.
Appearance: Shoulder length dreads beaded with jewels, heavy brows, fine, lightly calloused umber skin, a broad nose, pale gold eyes, and a lithe build. Somewhat akin to that of a fencer. Standing at 5’8”/172.72cm, they make up for their rather average appearance with that of heavy armor that is more ceremonial rather than practical. And beneath their eyes is a thick line of kohl.
Description: The eldest twin of the noble house Bulgari, Bernadette is next in line to inherit the throne of the Bridge Isles. It’s just too bad that Bernie does not desire to take the crown until they’ve accomplished an impossible feat worthy of House Bulgari. No matter how much their family has claimed otherwise, Bernadette has set themself with the task of saving the day- just like their ancestors had before the rise of magic. Even if it kills them.
Bernie has spent the past year wandering the continent in search of a cause worthy enough for them to champion. With minimal success. It isn’t until they meet the mysterious stranger that they might have found a cause worthy enough for the title of Sovereign.
Notes:
Bernadette is a twin, both they and Josephine (their sibling) have equal right to the throne due to the circumstances of their birth. However, thanks to Josie’s insanely poor health, Bernie is expected to take over once they return from their little ‘adventure’.
Both Lady B and Bernie are distant cousins thanks to their great grandmothers both being married and having issue (children) with the same person: The Ghost of Bulgari.
⚘The Serpent⚘
Name: Lazarus (male), Lazaria (female) Attor
Alias: Snake (Lady B), Laz (commonly)
Gender: Customizable (Male or Female)
Pronoun: He/They (male), She/They (female)
Age range: Early Thirties
Species: Naga
Class: Rogue
Weapon: Talons and poison
Romance Option: Yes. Laz is Romanceable to a player of any gender. They can also stay as a friend with benefits if the Player so chooses.
Romance Style: Hot and Heavy (Friends with Benefits), Devoted and Willing (Romance)
Appearance: Damn near twenty feet in length, Laz is the very example of their serpentine lineage. With bright green eyes, scales varying from the deepest of bronze to the brightest of emerald, three taloned fingers, fangs, and ochre flesh. They are almost a menace in comparison to the rest of the companions. A warrior’s physique despite their preference for cloak and dagger. The Serpent is distressingly quick despite their size.
Fem!Laz tends to wear a tightly wrapped emerald breast band and matching headscarf. While her male counterpart only wears an emerald cloak.
Description: A child of the sands, not much is known about Laz's past. If asked they will come up with an outlandish story on the spot. Never the same tale. They will never tell the truth- no matter how much booze they've been plied with. Besides, who wants to think of the past when the present is already here?
A spymaster for the Sultanate, Laz spends much of the day drunk. Plying the lonely with affection in exchange for the juiciest of gossip. It isn't until Lady B and her mysterious stranger walk into their tavern, that Laz is forced to give up their life of luxury for something more...
Daring...
Notes:
Laz’ work leaves them knowing far too much about their compatriots. Whether or not they’ll use this to their advantage is a given.
Laz has two separate romance routes.
ღThe Rangerღ
Name: Amyntas. Hunter of the Corvi
Alias: Amyn (Intimate), Amy pronounced Ah-me (Laz), Bird (Laz and ???)
Gender: Male
Pronoun: He/him
Age range: Late thirties-early forties
Species: Aveles
Class: Ranger
Weapon: Bow and Arrow
Romance Option: Yes. Amyntas is only Romanceable towards a female or femme representing nonbinary player.
Romance Style: Nervous Affection born from inexperience
Appearance: Squarely standing at 5’5”/165.1cm, the Aveles hunter is quite plain for a member of his species. With jet black hair feathers, silvery white skin, and a scrawny frame. He isn’t much of a threat at first glance. However, don’t let him fool you, Amyntas is a prolific hunter for his clan and WILL use that knowledge against you. A real David versus goliath type. He dresses in heavy woolen cloaks, lengthy scarves, and mix match leather armor of various origins. Much of which barely seems to fit the young harpy. Interestingly, Amyntas has made a habit of enchanting
Whatever he has lying around really. And all of which he enchants as he goes to keep himself whole while he stalks the Fell mountains.
Description: Born amongst the follies of war between that of the various tribes of the Aveles and that of the Fallen children of the mountains, Amyntas was raised in a precarious environment where any moment might be your last. Constantly forced on the verge of life and death, the hunter has taken it upon himself to do the unimaginable- abandon his clan in favor of ending the life of the Lich Queen and her generals.
Whether or not he'll survive is entirely up to you. Notes:
Amyntas technically knows ‘about’ the player character’s possible past before they lost their memories. However, they do not know just WHO the Player is once they meet.
Amyntas is easy to ‘flirt’ with, however they are hard to romance within a first playthrough as they tend to defer towards other possible romance options..
◍The plagued Warrior◍
Name: The Bishop
Alias: Bishie-boy (Laz), War Boy! (Laz), Bore (Laz), Bish (Laz and others)
Gender: Male, (technically The Bishop should be classified as Genderfluid since he can change his appearance at will. However, he prefers presenting as Male.) Pronouns: He/him
Age Range: Unknown, appears to be somewhere within his late twenties
Species: Godling
Class: Berserker
Weapon: A magically soul-bound ax twice his size.
Romance Option: Yes. The Bishop only has a sexual or romantic interest in Men or Male presenting individuals.
Romance Style: Transactional (In the beginning), Doting (Near the end).
Appearance: The Godling of War is one who is the very definition of a short king, standing just shy of 5'/152cms. He is probably the shortest Romance option to be had in the game. Save for a one night stand that the MC can take part in. A powerful man built like a tank, The Bishop possesses pale skin, waist length auburn hair, eight eyes, four arms, and two sets of horns. Honestly, he makes for quite the silhouette, especially with his habit of dressing in the finest of cheaply put together bandit leather armor beneath a priest's robe.
Description: Left to walk the earth after his untimely death thanks to the rise of magic. The Bishop has made it his mission to take over the role of the god who fell so that he could rise. Such is the life of a young godling. But, unfortunately for the Spider blooded man, he was not the only such being born for his role. With seven other contenders for his throne, the bishop is forced to hunt and consume his kin, one-by-one so that he may achieve godhood. It has been a long and arduous road laid ahead of him, yet he must go on. And maybe, with just a little push from the MC he might reach his goal.
Notes:
The Bishop does not remember his original name before he became a godling, only that he was once a war-monk who served under the divine hand of the Flaming Sword.
Bishop does not enjoy flirting, finding it to be beneath him, however he WILL flirt with the MC if it means getting what he wants. (AND THEN FALLS IN LOVE LIKE A FOOOL)
♬The Muse of Saltus♬
Name: Indigo Montoya
Alias: Indie (Laz), The Siren of Saltus (professionally)
Gender: Genderfluid (Normally female presenting)
Pronouns: Fluid (She tends to present as she/her. But will accept being called by any pronoun.)
Age Range: Early twenties
Species: Mermaid
Class: Bard
Weapon: A dagger, her voice, and a golden rapier
Romance Option: Yes. Indigo is only available towards those who are female or female presenting.
Romance Style: Lighthearted and Fun
Appearance: The siren of the sea is the very example of her species. With vibrant purple-grey skin, deep black eyes, elegant tail ripped in two, a curvy frame, and an even more striking head of kelp braided indigo-dyed hair. The lass will always try her best to stand out. Being just over 8'/243cm in her true form (much of which is situated in her tail.) Indigo usually starts to underwhelm people when it comes to her land-dweller form, 5'3"/160cm. Montoya tends to wear the same thing: a pair of gloves to hide her talons and a loose white tunic. Only the gods will know if the wild child ever wears underwear.
Description: Sirens tend to have a harsh life, one destined for ridicule and shame. Yet, the Siren of Saltus has made it her mission to take over the world stage and to gain the begrudging respect of ALL who meet her. Whether or not she'll succeed is entirely up in the air at this point.
Notes:
Indigo does flirt with any MC (no matter their presentation) however she is only interested in romancing women (or female presenting individuals).
Oftentimes Indigo will play songs during time spent in camp. She can be asked to teach the MC how to play one of three instruments. That being: Tambura, Flute, or the Oud.
❥The Dream Lover❥
Name: Perierat
Alias: Peri (Laz), ancient one (epithet), Rat (Laz).
Gender: Agender
Pronouns: Ne/Nem
Age Range: Unknown, presents as early thirties.
Species: Titan
Class: Sorcerer.
Weapon: A dagger and magestone
Romance Option: Yes. Peri is a very... protective romance option. To the point that I STRONGLY suggest NOT romancing anyone else when romancing Peri. Or at least, do so at your own risk. (If you plan on romancing another option I strongly suggest Laz or Bishop as Peri brings out a different side of the two.)
Romance Style: Terrifying and bloody (when romancing another as well as them.), Devoted worshiper (when only romancing them)
Appearance: The titan born is fairly nondescript, forgettable almost. Standing at nearly 5'9/175cms, with chest length gingery-blonde hair, white eyes, dark tawny skin, and large molten antlers atop their head. With a penchant towards flowy, murder-husbandy robes. It's difficult to describe Perierat without revealing too much.
Description: Spoilers. Sorry.
Notes:
Peri is behind a great deal of the events that make up the story of Lich Gate. Giving any more details may spoil some rather LARGE parts of the story. Sorry, sorry, sorry!!!
Obsessed with the MC, Peri owns a giant Huntsman spider named after them. Their 'baby' tends to make webs within their antlers Which Peri finds to be QUITE stylish.
+Stats and Classes
Throughout the game, the player will, at times, face many different forms of Stat checks. Be they in quests, puzzles, or encounters. It will greatly affect how the ending of that scene will turn out. And while I will never penalize players for most of their actions and will always allow there to be several different ways to beat a certain obstacle. There will be areas that benefit from certain stats.
Soooo…. Good luck! And may the gods be ever in your favor!
