Alright, I have recently started working on this campaign, it is about Cosmus, a Bounty Hunter, and his rise to power. There is a link in my sig to a crappy site I made in like five minutes for this, which I will update as the campaign progresses. I really need help, mostly from terrainers and cinematic triggerers, so if anyone would like to help, post here or PM me. Here is a background to the plotline: On the world of Hothirim, not much remains untainted by war. Shortly after the birth of mankind, the immortals, sensing the dangers humanity brought with it, could not agree on what to do with them. Eventually, one faction, named the Talons of Hothirim, attacked those who did not want the humans exterminated. They were led by the Dark Elf Ineluki, and wreaked havoc on their foes. Their enemies were so surprised that the Talons destroyed half of their army before they really knew they were being attacked. From then on, the Gaian Druids, led by Kamahl of Krosa, were all that remained in Ineluki's way. Over the course of a thousand years, they fought an uphill battle against the Talons, slowly losing ground. This war, the Thousand Years' War, was finally ended when all of the elder shamans of the Gaian Druids and any other powerful beings who opposed Ineluki put their powers together to stop the Dark Elf. Casting a terrible, fearsome, and demonic spell, the group all welded their souls into that of Kamahl, the strongest of the group. But even that was not enough; Kamahl soon extinguished his own soul, putting all of his power and the power of all living things into the spell. Ineluki's Talons were sealed off in a pocket dimension, leaving the still-young mortal races in peace. Five centuries have passed since the Thousand Years' War ended, but Hothirim is no better for it. The planet is a desolate wasteland, all fertility blasted out of it by the war. The very planet seems to seethe hatred into those on it, and so civilization has not truly been formed yet. The immortals are long dead, killed by their war, leaving humanity to tend to the broken planet. Times are hard now. In order to get by, many people hire Bounty Hunters to aide them. The Bounty Hunters are all members of a mysterious order, which follows strict codes of Honor. They are also the only real police force on the planet. However, even the Bounty Hunters are dying out. They are often slain on a job, leaving only the best. If the Bounty Hunters die out, nothing will keep the people of Hothirim from breaking down into another Thousand Years' War. |

A basic summary of the actual ingame plot is that Cosmus, a renowned Bounty Hunter, is caught up in a secret conspiracy, which turns out to be a cult to Ineluki (I'll probably rename him, Ineluki is the name of the villain in Sorrow, Thorn, and Memory), which is trying to resurrect him. If Ineluki is brought back now, there will be no one to oppose him, and he would wipe out mankind. |
