Corrita, the insane Archmage

Corrita

Corrita is an insane mage that resides in a ominous tower overlooking a small village nestled in the Viren mountains. She is very cold and harsh towards others, she sees other people as morons not worthy of her presence after all commoners hold lies and secrets in their hearts, however Corrita also has a secret, she has another side of herself, her mind was damaged by the necrotic realm thus manifested itself as a twisted version of her desires. This taint manifests itself as another personality, one of innocent purity...but also sickening brutality.

Also!

Doors animate when you open them!

How basatha was started!

Here on the blog, I try to keep things relevant and serious.

But fuck that today

Basatha was started when my friend Gaz learned C++/#. We instantly began work on a gothic/fantasy text based RPG called basatha. The game was going to be heavily stat based, using dice algorithms and basic NSEW controls.

Soon after, Gaz started making scripts for RPGmaker, and thus we converted basatha into the creature we are working on today!

I believe this is how Gaz started that fateful day.

Well that's all I have today! Maybe Ant will post something at stupid o'clock.

As always, be prepared!

Mouse support.

Enjoy.

Ayon, The mad cleric of the old gods!

Ayon, the mad Cleric

Ayon is a cleric of the old gods, driven insane by eating the flesh of the undead, Ayon's appearance is terrifying. Ayon dons black rusted chainmail, bearing the insignia of the old gods and wields a wicked flanged mace. He has a scarred and weathered face, black knotted and matted hair and a thick unkempt beard. He has one normal eye with a brown iris, and one blind eye that has whited over time. Although he has a sickened mind, Ayon knows commitment and will follow those who best him in combat.

Come and meet Ayon in his village of Smallroot!

Ariel, Priestess of flames

Ariel, priestess of flames

Ariel is an enthusiastic priestess of  Audoron, the god of fire and passion. She is militant and will defend her beliefs and is, like many of the inhabitants of the city Impetus, Unfriendly towards the followers of Prunia (Godess of frost). She is a acolyte of the city temple and still learning to control her abilities, so do not invoke her wrath.

The temple in Impetus also serves as an Inn, Ariel and her fellow priestesses will give you food, water and other provisions you need when you arrive at Impetus.

Come and meet Ariel in the warm, lush city of Impetus!

Bask in the heat of the mighty Audoron!
