Animated Battlers for RPG Maker MV
Ghostly spirits that cannot pass due to unfulfilled desires and lingering grudges. Unable to move on, they continue to haunt the grounds in which they died, harassing all who dare enter the premises.
It is said that on rare occasion multiple spirits may be forever bound into one, an anomaly that can only occur as a result of close bonds in life and death.
At the deepest depths of the seas it is said that a race of human like beings exist, capable of bending the very waters in which they live to their whims. Whilst no official record of such beings has ever been made; from all across the world sailors and fishermen claim to have witnessed the figures of women with fish-like tails basking in the sun’s light.
Delusions, mirages, hoaxes, many such terms were used to describe these such tales. None were believed, many scorned, until that one fateful day…
Altansit, a grand city built atop a small island. Through the decades the city grew, expanding outward via the construction of great pillars that reached far into the sea’s depths. All around the world Altansit became known as the largest hub of oceanic commerce, a population surpassing the thousands and rapidly reaching towards a million.
As such, it was a great travesty the day that Altansit fell victim to the sea’s wrath. Nothing remained, the whole city now said to rest upon the ocean’s floor and yet… Not one life was lost.
In mass survivors were found washed ashore across the globe on islands and and beaches all over. Each and every one of them all claiming to have been saved by maidens of the sea, women part fish.
Whilst often mistaken for giant fish, mermaids are in fact real. However contrary to myths, they care not about dragging unsuspecting victims into the depths. These bubbly maidens have little care for the surface world.
As one with the waters in which they live wield their power to manipulate and control water only in defence of their homes from those who would defile them.
Amongst the warrior insects there’s none quite like the Waspengarde. With long pointed rapier that serves as both an arm and weapon they adopt an unusual means of combat that loosely resembles the art of fencing.
With quick near unpredictable movements aided by their perpetual state of hovering above ground, they out maneuverer the blows of their opponent. Through the use of their stings they deflect and parry their opponent’s blows before going in for the decisive strike.
Whatever you do do not mistake the graceful dancelike movements of these overgrown bugs as that of an honourable fighter who seeks only a fair dual. No, to these merciless beings the means to victory far out way the methods in which it is achieved.
And lastly we have a training dummy to help new recruits practice their sword swings.
Oversized wasps with a finesse for combat. With rapier like stingers they strike at any foe who dares to cross their paths. With quick tempers, it is advised to steer clear of these overgrown bugs for their blade like stinger will do more than just sting.
In addition we have a friendly dummy; he may be lacking as far as holding a conversation goes but makes up for it when it comes to holding up against repeated blows.
Deadly cats who’s claws are as sharp as knives, very few have survived their wrath.
As free spirited animals they come and go as they please and refuse to take no as an answer. Should one choose to move in to your home they will do so no matter what you say.
Oddly there are many who welcome these feisty felines into their homes, for they bring the benefit of dispatching away with rodents and pests.
Do note, these kitties will never dark upon homes that host canine companions. Take that as you may.
Ferocious kitties with a peculiar sense of balance, preferring to fight whilst balanced atop their tails. There are few that dare challenge these furballs to combat without fear for their sharp claws.
Oddly despite their sly personalities, there are those who seek them as pets and companions. At least there’ll be no worries of mice and rats.
Atop the greatest peak amidst the snow and rocks a great ram lies, said to have reached true enlightenment, capable of perceiving even the very fabrics of reality.
Many have attempted the perilous pilgrimage up the mountain’s great height in search of answers, yet few ever return. And those that do, never do they speak of that which they learnt; rather when asked, they start bleating like a deranged sheep. Forever these people are changed, often seen grazing on grass lost in deep thought.
It is for this reason the ancient knowledge contained by such sheepish creatures is considered nought but a fools folly. As only the most foolish would dare seek such unfathomable truths no man could possibly hope to understand.
Atop the most treacherous peaks a peculiar form of wild sheep can be found grazing under the stars, their horns encased in runic stone. Believed to be a form of awakened animal it is not unusual to find monks in training nearby.
It is even said that the monks will challenge the rams to a head-butting contest from time to time hoping even a slightest trace of mystical enlightenment will rub off upon them.
Whilst many believe the famously lovable pet known as the Batty to be a domesticated form of their wild counterparts, its actually the other way round.
Originally bred from a bat-like species with rough scratchy fur that was harvested to make low quality rags, their fur rapidly became soft and woolly as if adapting to a more lovable form by instinct.
This fur became so soft and lovable that not just was it used as stuffing for children’s toys but the Batty found its way into homes as beloved pets. But that was only the beginning.
As such highly adaptable creatures they would rapidly evolve to fit their current climate, changing the consistency and texture of their fluffy manes. In attempts to create new brands of batty fur they were introduced to new environments, spreading at a rate that far exceeded expectations. It wasn’t long before they even began to populate harsher lands like toxic marshes and volcanos.
Oddly enough their rapidly expanding presence did not upset the local ecosystems, instead wild Batties find nutrition in algae and moss that oddly grows upon their own fluffy manes.
