@Junpei: The right artist for this would be Weebong.

The heroes can be possessed spiritually by good beings and will look like angels pero warriors. Then ila uniform depende kung unsa martial arts training natudlo sa heroes. Kung sa Europe, murag knight. Kung Japan murag samurai. Kung bodyguard sa papa, murag angel sa Bible.

@cmontoya, mind if I kicked around with your idea ball?

Okay, your idea impresses me to be as epic as the Macross Saga itself. Since it involves both science fiction, magic, and spiritual beings the idea is ocean deep with potential.

There are many ways to approach this but I am going to approach this by defining the idea through the formation of the main characters. As cmontoya summons the soul of Yoda so I shall invoke the ways of Tolkien. I see this idea as a an epic spanning several ages, three at least. Let me present it this way

THE BOOK OF PISCES
Eve is just a typical human schoolgirl, who is given to fantastic fancies. She believes in fairies and otherworldly paranormal things so much that she goes on spirit sweeps and mystic quests just to gain proof much to the chagrin of her older, sensible and scientific minded brother Adam. A mysterious enigmatic stranger named Eric comes to their school and mystically puts Eve's life in danger. She is saved by Adam and survives~ but with her recuperation comes an awakened talent and consciousness... Eve is able to see things that move around unseen and she can interact with these "beings" to cause changes in reality.

And soon through more adventures with the diabolically dangerous Eric, the truth is revealed~ two secret societies, two "families" endowed with secret knowledge and various arcana have engaged themselves in a bloodfeud as ancient as humanity's origins. Eve happens to be Eric's sister, taken from birth by Adam's family to stop Eve's family in acquiring a terrible power of which Eve is both key and heir. Through blood and betrayal, Eve will develop into a confused character questioning many things concerning about purpose, fate and destiny~ questions that most young people have a crisis with.

But one thing is for sure, her feelings for Adam will never change. From a big brother admiration, it grows to something beyond that. But it appears it's not meant to be~ as more family members are killed by both sides, Eve's heart and sanity is tested beyond human limits.

Adam gets killed in his love and loyalty for Eve and the last thread to Eve's humanity perishes with him. Eve in her hate opens the gate and darkness ascends from the bowels of the earth to conquest.

THE BOOK OF AQUARIUS
Half a millenium has passed since the events of the 1st book, the Darkness has been deified as Azathoth the Ancient. Humanity has been enslaved to serve Azathoth's whims and worship. Earth has become hell as Azathoth's minions use humanity as a nourishment source, feeding on people's emotions of pain, fears, despair and death.

For his service in the Age of Pisces, Eric has been granted immortality as the Azathoth's Pope and is no longer truly human. Yet he has a human daughter who he named Eve. Eve is a priestess of Azathoth and also a blood sorceress, a conduit of Azathoth's chaotic dark magic. Both father and daughter rule as King and Queen of Azathoth's zealous cult: The Children of Cain.

A young man has been heard to have healing powers and Eve is sent to investigate if he could be a threat to Azethoth's dominion or the Potentiate as promised by another elusive figure called The Seer King. Eve finds the slave named Adam and something triggers in her deep memory. A paramilitary religious rebel faction who call themselves the Sons of Seth saves Adam and takes Eve as hostage.

Further adventure continues as Eric sends out his Furies to hunt down the Sons of Seth which is composed of the last disciples of every major religion of the last Age. The Sons of Seth is guided by the Seer King who tells them that the Potentiate will lead them to Paradise.

Adam being the Potentiate is a Key of Human destiny. After centuries of Azathoth's rule, humanity has evolved to unlock powers and abilities that can be considered as superhuman. And Adam's gift can trigger these powers and abilities into other humans by mere exposure to his presence.

Eve also realizes her humanity through Adam and has her foundations in faith shaken.

With an army of superhumans, Adam leads a human exodus to discover a space facility long forgotten. Within this facility is a multitude of spacefaring ships now deemed as ARKS. With these, the free humans plan to escape Earth to the Moon.

Eric learns of this and sends a vast horde of the Horrible to slaughter each and everyone of the humans, even Eve who is now branded as a traitor. Adam and Eve faced the Horde to give the others time for salvation. As the Arks rise into the atmosphere, Adam dies destroying nearly all of the Horde. Eve perishes by her father's own hand but left the Immortal a scar he will never forget.

The New Arks and its passengers are guided by the new Seer King to a secret life facility and habitat on the Moon called Eden.

Broken and beaten, Eric returns to his God fearing his destruction but Azathoth rewards him with greater power and a new body for everything is working to Azathoth's dark desires.

THE BOOK OF TERMINUS

Every Beginning comes from an Ending.

This book details the beginning of Everything and it begins with an Ending. In the cosmos prior to the Creation, Light and Darkness have warred against each other to achieve Dominion. It took the Wisest of the Light to realize that each cannot exist without the other so a balance must be achieved, the Equilibrium.

To attain this, the Wisest took the Essence of Light combined it with the Essence of Darkness and thus in a reality of eternity, a point was born; a terminus. Thus the terrible Darkness was subdued as the Light fluxed and fused their essence with the chaos.

Order was formed in the matter of celestial bodies such as stars, planets and beings of matter (such as humans). Yet the darkness' power was allowed to flow out consistent and constant in the form of Change. Equilibrium was achieved. The dangerous darkness was detained and Life was born.

Yet there are those among the Light who remained pure in the thought that the Darkness must be completely destroyed and the Darkness is still continually forming and devising means to free itself from the Equilibrium.

And here is the classic story of creation. Among the 1st Termini created was Adam and Eve who the Wisest see as bearers of the Great Equilibrium. Through the machinations of the Brightest One (the Being of Light who wishes to completely obliterate the Darkness), Eve was tricked to free the Darkness from within her being~ damning her to mortality. Rather than living eternally in Equilibrium, Adam choose to share Eve's faith and the Wisest saw this ending as the beginning of the New War.

The War continues throughout human history and spirituality. It took many forms, weapons and battlefields, physical, metaphysical. And sometimes beings of the Darkness and the Light join these wars while the Wisest watches on, as how all beings act and react on the Laws of Equilibrium~ waiting for the time this war will end.

The BOOK OF AEQUALIS

The Age of Aquarius is reaching its ending, the Zodiac wheel has reached full circle. Through 26 centuries, humanity has colonized other worlds in the realm and evolved into many different lifeforms.

Azathoth's plans has come to full fruition, the Children of Cain has been spread throughout the cosmos born from sleeper seeds in the scattering of humanity. The plan is the Great Attack which involves the death of planets, freeing the titanic and terrible forces of darkness locked within and the extinction of the suns and stars, the avatars of the Light.

And in the middle of the galactic battle are the ELFs (Evolved Life Forms) Adam and Eve, both "Gods" of their own races. Guided by the Seer King, Adam has realized his past lives and longs to recover his true eternal love Eve who has become the Dark Lilith~ with Eric the Eternal, they will become the parents of the Avatar of Azathoth, the father of new race of completely Dark humans.

Adam will lead his armies of Angelus knights and other Allied ELF factions to retake the Lost Eden, the first strike against the Earth now known as Darkworld. As Eve prepares for the creation of Azathoth's avatar, inside her is also another war as her past selves both pure and tainted fight for supremacy, knowing that the last battle is coming.

Eric the Immortal and the Seer King are revealed to be the 1st soldiers and casualties of the New War, Cain and Abel. Azathoth is known to be the Darkness that will not be conquered, and the Sun of Earth to be the Brightest One who watches over humanity desiring the Darkness to be destroyed.

As the Ultimate War for Dominion reach its summit, only Adam and Eve is the hope to regain the Equilibrium as the Wisest of the Light waits and watches.

whoa. damn. impressive.[br]Posted on: December 04, 2006, 07:56:45 PM_________________________________________________n angita mog mga assistant artists? daghan mi diri sa fine arts dept. sa USC. nangita mi'g experience.

[Isteb]

@cmontoya it really reminds me of neverwinter nights and rahxephon.

@Junpei: I'm nothing compared to diem.

@diem: I'm saving your post hoping someday I can conceptualize the story's art (next year or the following). I leave the actual comic book creation to those who can but I'd love to design the characters, the worlds, the ships, The Old Ones, of this generation spanning epic. Marami pa ako bigas kakainin e before I can do your story justice.

[Isteb]

cmontoya, don't say you're nothing. especially when the story was really something. i think diem would agree. :mrgreen:

that aside, naa bay regular gathering ang mga writers diri sa cebu? it'd be great if i could pick up some of your thoughts. and you guys could pick on my brain.

[diem]

@cmontoya, you have a great seed of a story idea bro which I really appreciated and couldn't help expanding it to epic proportions in my head as we speak hehehheh A talent I guess I developed from being an avid re-reader of epics, both classical and contemporary.

@isteb, bro~ so far I've been trying to hold a gathering of aspiring writers who share a leaning to speculative fiction, a gathering similar to bro cmontoya's and the gang of iStoryan comic artists and enthusiasts but to no avail because of conflicting working schedules and the fact that I, the 'host' kunuhay, would really prefer to just read and write at home rather than talk about writing~! I guess it'll be more correct to say I would prefer to write about writing heheheh.

@diem: Why don't you and Isteb drop by on Sunday? It has been a while bro. 2pm Bigby's. I'll advertise the plot in the comic book drawing club thread
