***UPDATE***

Postby Daichi » 18 years ago

***WEEKLY UPDATE***


I've recruited a writer who's agreed to help write the scripts.
He is very talented and I can already assure you, you won't be disappointed by his work.


I am currently developing a system that will enable the characters to use powerful techniques when they reach a limit, similar to FFVII's "Limit Break".
This concept was originally intended for Daichi to transform into Atlas, but by Hikari's suggestion it grew out to include all characters.

Additionally, I made some adjustments to Rag's background story and added the main characters' weapons.
More on that to come.

Well, there's still a while left to go before the scripts are finished and I haven't auditioned the characters yet. So maybe your card can be fixed by the time I'm ready? ^^

As for my limit system, it's still under development, so there's honestly not many details I can give you, only my grand plans for it. X3

Btw i was thinking of my fave RPG Game ( FinalFantasy IX ) some of the characters have `sharing atacks` such as Steiner using his sword while Vivi makes it a `magic fire/ice` sword,
wouldnt it be cool if Astro and Atlas make one big xxx cannon?

I love that technique: Magic Sword!
Hmm, yeah that's a great idea. And I know how to make it too so it all works out!
I'll get to designing that when I'm finished with this (oh...frustrating) "limit break" system.

Yes, that'd be very helpful.
I'm more for story and design than making techniques. In fact if you have ideas for any kind of technique, that'd be good too.

I still can't think of a single summon spell for Rag, for instance.


Edit: Now that I think about it, perhaps the limits could be more like FFIX's Trance? Hmm.

That wouldn't be a bad idea but making new designs for every character ( not only Atlas.

Rag is a tough one so i need a day or two to think about that or read his manga chapter again to get a good idea,
for Denkou she could become invinsble and apear behind the enmy drop a huge bomb then quikly go back to her party.
Nuka could have a huge healing power` named Active Tube` where everyone's Hp gets restored and characters that are dead are back to life with a Hp of 100/200.
Espion can use plants ( ? )
btw do you have a picture/info about Klaus? he is one character that i don't know.

Hmn, those are good!

Okay, I don't have a pic on hand, I have plenty of screencaps of him but I'm not on my computer right now. ;_;
Klaus is a oneshot character who appeared only in 2003. He is in the episode "Undercover", which is on disk 5 and is one of the last episodes in the series, placed in the English version right before the Robotonia war episodes.
He is a cop/secret agent with a very calm and elegant personality. His favourite thing is music, particularly the music of Leah Jade, an opera singer.
Klaus has a daughter named Michelle, whom he has taken care of since her parents, friends of Klaus's, disappeared in an accident years ago. He is very fatherly as a result and has the habit of being the 'father bird' to the younger, smaller half of the party (Astro, Rag, Denkou, and Nuka).
In the RPG he is a "black mage", similar to Vivi, and uses a pocket watch as a weapon. (Sounds strange, looks awesome. XD)
