The Tales of Bandisar

The Tales of Bandisar is a going to be a new playerworld for Graal. It is in the phase of planning and tileset, but it being worked on as we state this.

Tales of Bandisar is being built by Jubei Saotome, MysticHaste, and others helping them.

It will be Real Time RPG (as if there would be many other options), featuring a SoM-esque system, and featuring a advancing storyline.

I'm not to offer psuedo-promises, but I'll tell you things that are plannerd and will be in Bandisar.

- Custom item menus, option to chose from more than one style.
- Custom chests that use ganis
- Custom tileset with images for effects like waves crashing on a beach and etc.
- Special uniforms for soldiers of high level, requires the levels to gain access to the costume.

There will, of course, be more. There seems to be a flood of servers trying to be a break, but I can tell you that this is something different ALREADY.

Looks very promising, the tileset is coming out really nicely. (Except the cliff tiles, look kinda 'moldy', may be just the quality of the screenshot.)

Best of luck to you, Jubei and company.

Interesting tiles, may wish to change the way you use them. That circle of raised land in the middle looks a bit too high and weird because of it, but its still nice.

That splash image is basically just a test level for the tileset to see what could be done with it. No actual levels have been made yet.

Haste has been working on those tiles for, like, EVER. It's all original, he shows me something on it every once in a great while and it's turned out really uber!

You better actually finish it, or I'll send a horde of fleshing eating sponges after you!

Heard of it before this topic, but is it true that it is a 'Doomsday revival project?' If so, I don't understand why Tifa would be involved if she was the one always telling people to "let it die."

No, Tales of Bandisar is not a Doomsday revival.

A DD revival was planned for a very short time, but it has fallen through.

Our planning is virtually over and we have this, and a few others.

Probable:
- Level/EXP System; This is yet to be discussed, but we will most probably have this. It will most likely have point distribution similar to Diablo.
- Custom character bodies; which can equip headgear, shoulder pads, boots, capes and etc!
- Weapons; up to 10 different weapon classes, such as - Swords, Bashing and Bows.
- Monsters; Your typical RPG fare here, although we're looking at having MVP style monsters with it's own BGM Midi to set the atmosphere!
- Item Menus; So far we're planning on having either a FF style multi windowed menu or a SoM ring menu, may end up having both.
- Animation; Something I personally want for Bandisar, various emotional and status/battle animations.
- Chests, Items & GP; GP is going to be our currency and we'll have various items for healing and status fixing. We also aim to have the "Slam the chest on the ground" style chest opening animation similar to SoM!
- Kingdoms/City-States; At first there would be no kingdoms as the community would be new, but as players form friendships and rivalries, kingdoms would be made and destroyed.
- Plot Chapters; The RP Team would create massive plots for the players at key points in the PW's life, a site would handle previous chapter summaries!

Ideas yet to be agreed on:
- Town guards; basically where an evil status player would walk into town and have justice served onto him. Also if a player attacks another player, the guards would attack the attacking party. This is all within town limits, of course!
- Ambient Soundtrack; Nice background music that doesn't sound annoying. And actually fit's the location's atmosphere.
- Ghosts and Reviving; when you die you become a ghost and need to seek out a healer NPC or player to revive you.
- Notoriety Status; Basically just like AP, but this would effect Town Guards and such.
- Fame/Reputation; After killing great monsters or disreputable players, your fame would go up and down if you had done the opposite! Would add a title to your name, like The Hero or The Evil.
- Races; This might not end up on Bandisar, but we've been discussing Dwarves, Kobolds, Fish people and Elves.
- Party System; Not fully discussed yet, but up to 5 people would be able to adventure in a party together, with a messaging system. Experience would be shared, of course.

Also, we are looking for character designers.
