CYBERMAGIC
( NOT FINAL NAME )

My main inspiration comes from the amazing world of ShadowRun, where Cyberpunk cities and Fantasy elements live together.

I intend to turn this into an RPG turn-based game, in a High-bit style.

INTRODUCTION

The story takes place in a dystopian future, where humanity wins against nature: the world is covered by big, technological cities, and vegetation doesn't fit in anymore.

In order to keep the Earth a living place, a little group of humans searched and discovered the power of ancient magic, that existed way before they started building cities.

With its help, they managed to protect nature by turning it into different sources of magic. Then it's untrust to a very specific kind of people, who are specially trained to keep the sources safe and allow the Earth to survive.

Holding magic elements is a really hard thing but grants its keeper an incredible amount of power in return. That's why a lot of people try by all means to take possession of it, even trying to create their own to gain power.

However, if the magic only stays with the right people, humanity can still live. That's why when the current Magic keeper dies from strange causes, and its magic got scattered all over the world, things started to get complicated, and dangerous.

Only one human is sent to go and search for it, and she will not be stopped, by anyone or anything.

MAIN CHARACTERS

THE HOUND

The protagonist, and the one character that the player will embody.

He's the only survivor of a lethal attack on his family, who left him with paralyzed legs. So he must now use an exoskeleton to move around.

His only goal is to find the murderer of his family, known as The Fox, to avenge them. He spends years of training only for that.

But when he finally found The Fox, he discovers that she's on an important mission to save the world. Since he doesn't want to lose her again, he strikes a deal with her : He helps her achieveing her mission, and then he will strike her down.

He's agressive and hyperactive. He won't stay in place until his mission is over.

He has a great knowledge of the world, and he always get what he wants from other.

THE FOX

The Hound nemesis.

She's the one in charge of searching for the different Sources of Magic, after the death of the actual keeper.

She's also in charge of controlling the magic used, and make sure that no one besides the Archent family has access to it.

She doesn't have a blood relationship with the Archent family but grew up with them.

She was saved by Silver, the youngest son of the family, and respected him since that day, being capable of doing anything for him, including giving away her life.

She's considered as the henchman of the Archent family, doing their bidding.

So she received the honor of using a little bit of magic to help her on her mission.

She's strong and cold-hearted, except when it concerns Silver.

Since her only interaction with people is to control or kill them, she doesn't have any social skills, and have a hard time interacting with others.

That's why she strikes a deal with the Hound so he helps her with searching for the magic sources, in exchange of him killing her when the mission is done.

THE WOLF

The player's antagonist.

He's the oldest son of the actual magic keeper. He was supposed to be the one receiving the charge of keeping the magic, but since his body is too weak to endure the Magic, the role was given to his younger brother.

Seeing this as a betrayal, and an insult, he tried to steal the Magic from his father. It led him to be disowned by his family.

He now still tries to get the Sources of Magic, to show everyone that he's not weak, and that his family was wrong.

He managed to recruit people to help him achieve his goal, in exchange for better equipment.

He's unstable and changes his mood really quickly. Despite his saying, he needs a mask to help him breath and keep his body in good condition.
