Also, i close polls whenever I see there are more than half of the people (who joined, so 15) answered unless the poll is very close (like its 50-50 for example. If its like 70-30 or 100-0 I’ll close it).

My character!

Name: Horvath

Role: Miniboss 4

Image:
Screenshot 2023-05-11 at 9.27.27 AM
The character sprite is in the game link.

Lore (Background Information):
Horvath was a former successful mercenary who worked often with the King of [insert random kingdom]. But on one of his missions, he faced [the boss] and lost against him/her in a duel. He was captured by [the boss] and was tortured severely, mutilating his body and nearly killing him.

However, [the boss] used a spell that could “revive” Horvath’s broken body. The spell basically binds all of his broken body parts together into a “body”, hence his “broken” appearance. Not wanting to die then, Horvath complied with all of [the boss’s] orders, unable to escape. When Horvath realised that it was better to die, [the boss] never gave him the chance and made him suffer more.

During the battle against [the protagonist], Horvath would beg [the protagonist] to give him a warrior’s death and end his suffering. After the battle, Horvath’s soul finally rests in peace.

(Definitely went overboard with the lore lol)

In-game Statistics (below are placeholders):

  • Health: 200
  • Attacks (if any): Dash attack (4 hearts), Slam attack (6 hearts), Knife Throw (2 hearts), Ancient’s Sorrow (1 heart per projectile)
    • Dash Attack: Rushes forward and performs an X-slash with his dual daggers.
    • Slam attack: Jumps into the air and performs a slam attack on the ground that has an AOE damage radius.
    • Knife Throw: Throws a knife at the player.
    • Ancient’s Sorrow: Fires a flurry of projectiles (Similar to the first boss from Boss Rush) in a spray fashion for roughly 3 seconds. Only used after reaching 50% health.
  • Abilities: After reaching 50% health, he will create a shield around him that will need to be destroyed before inflicting more damage onto Horvath. The shield, after destruction, will regenerate again at 25% health.

By the way, the final boss has 300 health, so keep that in mind!

Regarding player health, the Player starts with 3 and can gain up to 10 hearts throughout his journey! I’ll make some gameplayer tweaks here and there as we get closer to actual development!

Once everyone’s lore and characters are finished, I want to compile them all into one post that is available to everyone so no one needs to scroll countless posts just to find one character’s backstory.

I hope everyone who answered in the poll “YES I’LL JOIN” knows that they will have to submit a character. I know some people are sick or maybe busy, so I’ll just make a new poll and adjust the roster.

Joining the Character Roster
  • I will join the roster
  • I will not join it

0 voters

Probably should have made this more clear. I will end it on May 14.

@SoftTalker @Nerdiest don’t have to answer the poll as they already sent their submissions in.

Anyone from the original 15 reading this please like or tell me you’ve read this as the thread as gone quite silent recently.

The post got approved late, so I’ll extend the deadline to May 17 to finalise the character roster.

Original character roster:
@randomuser @Blobbey @TheGreenArtist @Dreadmask197 @BoostedGames @Nerdiest @Brohann @labfox29 @danger_kitty @SoftTalker, SkillMapster430, Gideon_loves_cats, NobodyNomad, AD_0211

I am aware some are not as active as others and some may have stuff going on in their lives. However, if less than 7 people answer the poll saying they’ll join the roster I will abandon this project due to the lack of participation. Sorry, but if progress won’t be made on it, it’s not really worth working on in my opinion. I’m busy with a lot of stuff and having to keep asking people to answer stuff and submit stuff is really not worth it for me.

Couldn’t ping the rest because there can only be a maximum of 10 pings per post.

No worries! At least you read it now! Better late than never

Hey, I mean if you want to go for those roles, submit your ideas for a neutral character and a miniboss! You can submit a character for each role!

I changed the amount of submissions one can make: 3 for each category. Allowing someone to make 14 submissions might be too much.

I’ll drow a cult for a boss fight

I meant that you’d use the same one I submited but Instead have it be a mini boss (cause the dragon seems like a better fit for what your going for)
