He loses his temper during a payment dispute and guards arrest him. In jail, he meets Francis de la Fleur, a bard who sings terribly.

After meeting a mysterious spirit named Gaea, both find themselves the focus of a divine contest affecting the entire old world. Together with allies, they battle fiends that distort reality itself.

Setting and World Setting The game takes place in an alternate-history low-fantasy Earth in the time 1315 AD. This date is analogous to the same date in history, albeit with spirits and magic which form the backbone of fantasy elements in the game. The world includes two abstract realms; the Physical Realm, and the Spiritual Realm, which coincide with and interact with one another. This interaction results in both the spirits and magic in the game world. The barrier between these two realms is “The Veil.”

In general, spiritual phenomena are strongest in places where The Veil is thin. These sites can take the form of Holy Places, Cursed Places, or even as areas with an overabundance of plant and animal life.

Physical Realm The Physical Realm is the world as non-spirits know it. Most of the game and the entirety of human history take place in the Physical Realm, and the Spiritual Realm influences the Physical Realm. Put simply, the Spiritual Realm is like an invisible overlay on top of the Physical Realm, split into many different areas. While not tangible, humans and other non-spirits feel a presence, aura, or emotional gravitas when in the presence of strong spirits. Spirits may choose to speak with humans telepathically, through dreams or visions, or through an avatar.

Acts in the Physical Realm may also influence the Spirit Realm. For example, battlefields and areas of mass executions draw large numbers of deathly spirits. These spirits come both from the newly deceased, who remain bound to the area by regrets, and from spirits traveling to areas similar in affiliation to themselves. Humans worship spirits they believe intervene in human events. Humans erect temples, statues, and other buildings and in doing so, these spirits grow in power.

Spirit Realm All spirits dwell in the Spirit Realm. Particularly powerful spirits called Greater Spirits shape areas of the Spirit Realm in the shape of their own affiliations. To give an example, the world of the dead would be a location inside the Spirit Realm shaped by Death, and Heaven an area in the Spirit Realm shaped by the Monotheistic God. Shifts in power and conflict reshape the Spirit Realm as drastically as they do the Physical Realm. Souls and spirits without bodies in the Spirit Realm must be careful; without a body to protect them, harm in the Spirit Realm damages the soul/spirit directly.

For spirits of the Spirit Realm, both the Spirit Realm and Physical Realm are tangible realities. Spirits can freely cross to the Physical Realm and back. Since spirits require mana to survive, and creatures in the Physical Realm provide mana through worship and supplement to Spirits, it is in spirits best interests to remain engaged with the Physical Realm.

Magic and Technology Magic Mana In theory, mana is the intangible energy of a non-spirit to assign value to a spirit. All creatures have mana, and this mana regenerates when resting. When a non-spirit runs out of mana, it feels mentally exhausted and sluggish; drinking restorative draughts or eating food restores mana. As creatures (especially humans) become more powerful, and so more influential in their community, their mana increases.

In practice, mana is the energy used by non-spirits to request magic from spirits. To give examples, praying to a spirit and performing for a spirit both consume mana.

For spirits, mana is a source of energy and the belief beings have in that spirit. Naturally, the more mana a spirit has, the more powerful it becomes.

Spirits Spirits are non-corporeal beings similar in substance to a soul. They live in the Spirit Realm and may cross freely between the Physical Realm and Spirit Realm. To spirits, however, the Spirit Realm is physical and reality. In the Spirit Realm spirits perceive and interact with their surroundings directly – without the need of a physical body. Should a spirit exhaust its mana supply, the spirit itself dwindles away. The more mana a spirit has, the more powerful magic it can cast, and the more powerful the spirit itself becomes. Any spirit that gains enough mana becomes a Greater Spirit.

Souls Humans and other physical creatures have a spirit in the form of the soul. Souls are analogous to lesser, lesser spirits (spirits that cannot travel freely between realms, cannot use avatars, and can only conjure limited changes in self). The soul reacts to Songs of Power and other magic, and the soul is how non- spirits detect spiritual presence. Souls hold the personality, memory, and “self” of a physical creature. Once in the Spirit Realm, souls perceive and interact with their surroundings like spirits do. All souls in the Spirit Realm appear as small balls of blue fire called “Soul Fire.”

When physical creatures die, their soul journeys from the body across The Veil to the Spirit Realm, where it arrives in Golgotha (the land of the dead). From Golgotha, souls are sent to a domain under the rule of the Greater Spirit those creatures served most in life. This process is slow, and many souls end up crafting makeshift residences in Golgotha while awaiting judgement.

The name Chosen One refers to souls under the protection of a Greater Spirit. Without the protection of a Greater Spirit, souls must manage mana to avoid dwindling. Dwindled souls reduce to a ball of barely sentient Soul Fire called Shades.

Greater Spirits Greater Spirits are particularly powerful spirits. They shape areas of the Spirit Realm in the shape of their own affiliations and may war to gain influence in the Spirit Realm. The power of a Greater Spirit is

Copyright © Michael Morris-O’Connor, 2017 – 2021 Portfolio Samples Vale of Myth Narrative Bible (Full) Page 9 of 185 equivalent to the size of its domain. The domains of Greater Spirits attract lesser spirits with the same element or affiliation. Lesser spirits in the territory of a Greater Spirit respond to the Greater Spirit as a sort of ruler or king. Any Greater Spirit that loses enough Mana dwindles to a (lesser) spirit.

All deities across world faiths are depicted here as Spirits, and those most prominent among world faiths are treated as Greater Spirits (including the Monotheistic God, and the Pagan spirit Gaea). Areas of afterlife in world faith appear here as areas of the Spirit Realm (including Heaven and Hell).

Nephilim Nephilim were unique in that they were physical humans with spirits infused into their very souls in an imbuement process. This allowed them to conjure magic without petitioning an external spirit. All Nephilim died during the biblical great flood.

Siegfried, one of the game antagonists, becomes the first Nephilim in thousands of years. To combat him effectively, the player characters also become Nephilim while stranded in Golgotha.

Avatars All but the most powerful spirits cannot physically interact with the Physical Realm unless they have an avatar in said realm. Avatars range from animals to human hosts to demons to abstract physical constructs. Killing an avatar (Dispersing) makes the spirit using that avatar unable to physically engage with the Physical Realm until it gets a new avatar.

Focus Orbs Focus Orbs are notorious magic stone stakes as tall as a man is high. They pin together a small area of the Physical Realm and the Spirit Realm and impale against the ground any spirits in the area. These orbs are the work of the most forbidden and intricate dark magic, and trap spirits in a state of eternal agony to draw in other spirits attracted to the magical energy. This artificially magnifies the strength of spirits in the area. Naturally, these Focus Orbs - while potent – have limitations in power; Focus Orbs cannot trap Greater Spirits. These orbs are rare, and exceedingly difficult and time-consuming to make. Monster Hunter Guild law states they must destroy any such orbs they come across on sight, to prove the guild does not use such orbs to artificially increase business. Since these orbs can threaten entire regions, not destroying a Focus Orb can result in the offending Monster Hunter Guild being barred from operation by the regional authorities.

Casting Magic Casting magic is a process in which a spirit consumes an intangible magical energy called mana to physically manifest a form of magical energy. Generally, the more powerful the manifested energy will be, the more mana it requires to cast.

By non-spirits spending mana in song, dance, prayer, or other supplication, they give the expended mana to the spirit they entreat. The entreated spirit conjures the magic asked of it, which the non-spirits

Copyright © Michael Morris-O’Connor, 2017 – 2021 Portfolio Samples Vale of Myth Narrative Bible (Full) Page 10 of 185 channel into physical reality. By completing this exchange, the spirit’s mana grows as non-spirits believe more strongly in it. Likewise, spirits may refuse requests to conjure magic but lose mana.

Schools of Magic All magic in Res Judicata breaks down into two schools of magic: conjuring magic and channeling magic. The first, conjuring, is the more powerful of the schools, but is not usable by non-spirits.

Conjuring Conjuring is a self-sufficient magic that consumes magical energy called mana to physically manifest a form of magical energy. Even though all beings have mana, only spirits may conjure. Please see Casting Magic for details on how this conversion of energy takes place.

Channeling Channeling magic requires an attunement to a spirit affiliation (most often an element). Creatures may only have attunement to a single affiliation. The channeling act itself includes two logistically separate events. The first event is the request for magic or supplication and can take many different forms including singing, dancing, praying, or even writing runes. The second event is the response, where the non-spirit acts as a conduit through which conjured energy from the Spiritual Realm channels into the Physical Realm. The more powerful the magic channeled, the more dangerous acting as a conduit for it is.

As a final note, spirits will not grant any magical request that goes against the spirit’s values or affiliation.

Methods of Channeling Songs of Power Songs of Power are songs that motivate or otherwise influence non-spirits. These songs rely on the power of voice and melody to beseech the soul of the listener. The listener acts as channeler, and the listener’s soul acts as conjurer. Such songs are therefore not about flinging fireballs, but about bringing forth a magical change in the listener (for example, filling them with fighting spirit or healing wounds).

Runes Runes function as the authoritative name of a spirit. Rune crafters carve Weapons, armor, items, or even buildings with runes to bring about desired effects. Rune crafters petition Spirits with a request for an item to bear its name before the runes are carved, and spirits can refuse to bless an item. If the spirit agrees, it then acts to ensure that desired effect comes about, to improve its own reputation. Rune usage is basic and does not require much from spirits. As a result, the effects tend to be simple. Runes of water spirits on armor protect the bearer from water damage, and fire runes on a weapon cause the edge of the weapon to be aflame when unsheathed.

Dance Rain dances and the like are requests for good fortune broadcast to nearby spirits of the same affiliation as the dance. The spirit receives mana and pleasure from the dance, and if pleased, brings about the desired effect through the weather or fields. Dance magic is community-focused, and most such magic is not harmful to others. Adventuring parties rarely request magic in this way.

Prayer Prayer is an intimate dialogue with a spirit, through which the channeler directly asks for the magic they need. While praying still sends mana to the spirit, the amount of mana sent is directly correlated to the quality of relationship between channeler and spirit. Successful prayer requires building a relationship with a spirit over time; channelers with a close relationship to the spirit can channel incredible magic. Developing such a relationship requires regular and earnest communication, adherence to a spirit’s values, and may include performing favors for the spirit. Prayer has the potential to yield the most powerful of channeled magic, but it takes significant investment.

While intimate, those who have never contacted a spirit before may still channel successfully if the spirit is making a gesture of good will or desire to start a relationship. A particularly emotional request may also move a spirit to grant it. Such cases are particularly poignant, as the spirit grants the request at a loss of mana. Spirits refuse all requests that go against their values and/or affinity.

Imbuement Imbuement is a dangerous method of channeling and conjuring wherein a spirit infuses a fragment of its spirit into a creature’s soul. Imbuing a soul too many times causes permanent damage to the soul, and results in a complete identity loss. Those who lose their identity in this way inevitably go mad.

Imbuement is valuable because it elevates non-spirits to spirits, allowing the caster to cast magic of the affiliation of the imbued spirit in a much more controlled fashion than channeling allows. In such cases, the caster becomes both channeler and conjurer. Imbuements become more powerful over time, as the caster becomes more experienced and as the caster develops relationship with the imbued spirit. There exists no means of forcing imbuement from a spirit, nor can a soul remove an imbued spirit.

Imbuement raises moral dilemmas over the humanity of the imbued and the fate of their souls because it allows for tampering with the soul itself. Technology Going with the low-fantasy setting, technology is largely unchanged from 1315 AD, except for added healing items, armor, and weapons made possible by spirits and mythological creatures. Horse and ships are still the dominant modes of transportation.

Restoratives Healing agents work by both accelerating and magnifying the body's self-repair systems to unprecedented degrees - healing in seconds injuries that would take months or years to heal naturally. Due to their potency, despite the incredible pain they put patients in, healing agents are highly addictive.

Healing agents have several components that stabilize and block pain. Despite this, accelerated healing still puts a great strain on the patient. The strains of accelerated healing are very painful; some describe it as an unbearable itching sensation covering the entire body. According to in world documented records, restoratives do not re-grow lost limbs and/or organs. This makes sense as the body cannot recover limbs or organs naturally.

Healing agents are also risky for treating the elderly. Using restoratives on them often results in organ failure, causing death. The reason for this is due to bodies that are no longer able to sustain the demands such healing places upon them. Because of these deaths, there is a growing in-world concern that repeated use of such restoratives degrades the body, effectively reducing the patient's lifespan.

Common Restoratives Most game restoratives take the form of bandages, healing compounds such as poultices, food, and drinks to reinvigorate body and mind. Potions are rare.

Branwen Soup During events prior to the game (1242AD), a group of adventurers defeat Branwen the Witch. Branwen had a black cauldron full of a strange brew, and she used that brew to an army of undead. After killing Branwen, the adventurers take some of the cauldron brew back with them and exchange it with the London branch of the Guild of Pepperers (an Apothecary Guild) in return for coin.

After years of study, the Guild of Pepperers becomes the largest player in the field in 1288AD. They achieve a breakthrough; using Branwen’s Soup on a dying person will restore them to life, using it on a dead person results in a zombie. Using it on the living results in temporary blindness, nausea, cramping, and vomiting. Over two dozen staff die because of the experiments. They then reverse-engineer the brew to get a recipe for producing more and guard the recipe zealously. To get hold of the rare ingredients needed, the Guild of Pepperers set up guild relationships with the Monster Hunters Guild and offer lucrative contracts for obtaining items. The Guild of Pepperers delivers a part of Branwen Soup to the Monster Hunter Guilds in exchange for services. It has been rumored - but never proven - that the Guild of Pepperers assassinate anyone who tries to reveal the recipe.

Due to manufacturing costs, Branwen’s Soup is prohibitively expensive. Yet, adventurers, Monster Hunters, and the social elite most certainly buy it. World-Altering Events The Great Flood In the Bible, people who lived before The Great Flood are called Nephilim – though they did not share any of the powers that Nephilim in the game world had. At God’s command, Noah builds an ark to safeguard a fraction of all life on Earth from the flood. Biblically speaking, the impetus for The Great Flood is the full and open corruption of the people of Sodom.

In the game world, the Nephilim imbued themselves with many spirits, and in doing so, becoming powerful enough to challenge the Spirit Realm. In their hubris, they try to reach Heaven, incurring the wrath of God, and the resulting Great Flood wipes out all Nephilim. Thanks to Noah’s Ark (unchanged from the biblical depiction), humanity and life survives. The flood destroys all documented knowledge of Nephilim and Imbuement.

The First Trial Unchanged from the Biblical story of Joab: Lucifer brings about the First Trial by suggesting God’s favored person, Joab, only loves God because God has showered Joab with good fortune. Lucifer can bring bad fortune to Joab to evaluate this hypothesis, but Lucifer cannot kill Joab directly or indirectly. Things get very unpleasant for Joab, but ultimately, God is correct, and God casts Lucifer down from Heaven. Lucifer then takes on the name Satan.

The Second Trial Unchanged from the Biblical story of Jesus Christ; the Second Trial is the biblical events of the life and resurrection of Jesus Christ. In short, Jesus Christ is born to Mary and Joseph, and lives a life preaching the Gospel, fulfilling the Jewish prophecies, and performing miracles. Satan tempts Jesus in the desert, but Satan loses again. Jesus ultimately sacrifices Himself by death on the cross, and through this, breaks the power of Death to claim all souls through sin.

Expanding on this in-game, these events severely weaken Satan. So much so that it only gains enough strength to propose a challenge to God once every thousand years. Death also loses out, as it can no longer claim souls eternally, and Death must now follow a covenant set up between God and other Greater Spirits. As a result, every soul coming into Golgotha is judged and sent to Heaven, Hell, or the domain of whatever Greater Spirit that soul served most in life (including Death). Death is no longer able to permanently destroy souls dispersed in Golgotha, and so The Great Necropolis is built, along with the Well of Souls. A teleporter sends Chosen Souls directly to The Great Necropolis. Those considered unworthy may find haven in The Great Necropolis if they can reach it. To do so, they must travel the lands of Golgotha, which remain unchanged.

The Templar Purge Pope Clement the Fifth orders The Templar Purge in 1307AD. The Templar Order was disbanded across Europe, and Templar leaders were burnt as traitors. The action was largely political, as many kings and rulers owed the Templars debts, they were unable (and unwilling) to pay. Instead, they manufactured claims of heresy and idol worship in the Templar Order.

In the game world, the souls of Templars executed have flocked to aid Siegfried, who views this event as an unimaginable injustice. To Siegfried, who begged his parents to join, and who rose from the lowest ranks to become a prestigious Master of the Order, the Templar Purge is an attack on his family, his home, and his very way of life. He then warns the Templar Fleet and with it, goes into hiding.

Siegfried Warns the Fleet From popular conspiracy theory: After hearing of the Templar Purge, Siegfried warns the Templar Fleet of eighteen ships docked at La Rochelle, France just before October 1307AD. The fleet leaves in heavy fog and appoints Siegfried - the highest ranked officer aboard - as leader. As leader, he becomes captain of the Amé Morte.

Siegfried’s Petition In 1314AD, Siegfried confronts Pope Clement the Fifth directly and asks him to end the Templar Purge and allow the Templars to reform. Despite being very against the idea, Pope Clement the Fifth finds himself swayed by Siegfried’s enthusiastic petition. Even so, the Templar Purge was not about punishing heretics, but about money. All the allies Pope Clement the Fifth earned himself through the purge had no interest in having their debts reinstated. So, Pope Clement issues an impossible request. If Siegfried can raise enough support to rebuild the Templar Order - from the same nobles who profit from its dissolution – within three years time, then he will reinstate the Templar Order. Even then, he would reinstate the Templar Order with little authority and resources. Siegfried, not realizing the odds against him, happily agrees.

The Battle of Bannockburn A battle in which a Scottish force, led by Robert the Bruce, defeat an English force three times their size. Daron Underwood loses his right eye during the battle. Afterwards, he wears an eyepatch to hide the milky, white eye.

The Third Trial The Third Trial is the final trial between God, man, and Satan, and takes place over the events of Res Judicata. The player characters are God’s chosen for the trial, and Gaea’s role is to bring them all together. The phenomena around the world; including the Cursed Places, Increased Monster Activity, and Sudden Animal Hostility, are all due to Satan’s increasing influence over the Earth. The Food Shortages are partly due to these phenomena, and due to The Great Famine (1315AD – 1317AD), which becomes more prominent over the course of Res Judicata.

Satan, aware that things aren’t going to go well for it, then hatches a plan to skew the trial in its favor. It reaches out to Siegfried, luring him with the power of the Nephilim, which Satan claims is necessary to rebuild the Templar Order after the Templar Purge. It tells Siegfried of God’s chosen but portrays them as false heroes who will bring about a great calamity. Siegfried reluctantly accepts but plans to kill Satan the moment he gets what he needs. Unbeknownst to Siegfried however, Satan is feeding him these murderous thoughts. Satan, surmising it will suffer Eternal Death if it loses this third trial, imbues itself into Siegfried, granting Siegfried the power of the Nephilim. By coercing Siegfried to kill Satan, it can then absorb its power into Siegfried, and take over Siegfried. In doing all this, Satan circumvents destruction – as Siegfried destroys its original form – and the limitations of The Second Trial, becoming more powerful in the process.

These actions completely derail the Third Trial, and things become so desperate that Gaea intervenes by tearing a portal open to their Spirit Realm, destroying Siegfried’s galleon, the Amé Morte. The heroes then battle their way out of Golgotha, and realize in the process they can access Golgotha through Spirit Gates around the world. In the second chapter, they use this network of gates to overcome their past failings, rally spirits to support them, and gather an army with which to take Siegfried down.

Major Landmarks / Locations Physical Realm Holy Circles Glowing Holy Circles mark the site of holy events. They make travel much easier, as camping in a Holy Circle prevents monsters and demons from entering the camp. People build towns near Holy Circles for the same reason. Trailblazers take advantage of any nearby Holy Places. Holy Circles also double as Save Points.

Holy Circles output a holy energy (appearing as mild white light) in a centered sphere, ten paces in radius, and evil creatures disperse on contact with this radius. This light does not dim or weaken over time. Wild animals and other humans are not inherently evil however, so it is still necessary to keep watch at night.

Spain Crossroads The crossroads connect Toledo with Western Spain, house the Royal Miners Guild, and are the site where the Cuélebre attacks caravans for food.

Toledo Toledo is a moderately sized well-fortified mining town, built on a hill and bounded by river. Workers refine ore from the mines into Toledan Steel, within the town outskirts. This alloy is first employed by Hannibal and his armies, and their success led to recognition of the city as an important strategic location. The town is ruled by mayor, and Captain Marduk (a retired Templar) leads the City Guard. The Royal Miners Guild also holds strong influence over city politics due to the importance of mining in the city. The dominant faith in Toledo is Catholic. Islam is not openly practiced here, as the largely Catholic Castile region and the Islamic Moors are at war (see: Cultures: Physical Realm: Spain).

Toledo suffers many problems when the player first arrives. The Cuélebre terrorizes trade routes, preventing food supplies from reaching the city occupants. As a result, residents are starving. The City Guard is unable to fight The Cuélebre and has petitioned the Monster Hunters Guild for help, but the guild has not responded. The Mines are under attack by monsters, and bandits pillage caravans leaving Toledo.

Toledo Mines The Toledo Mines stretch across the mountains just north of Toledo. They are in active use and support the economy of the city almost single-handedly. The mines split into west and east halves, but the east half is not in use.

The mines are full of danger as well; the week prior to Garbhan’s arrival, miners broke through to an old tomb containing the Jack O’ Lantern, unleashing a horde of monsters within the mines. Captain Marduk orders miners to continue working, and dispatches some of the local guard to protect active parts of the mines. The guards, to hold the monster swarm at bay, collapse veins of the Level 2 Mines. This is partially

Copyright © Michael Morris-O’Connor, 2017 – 2021 Portfolio Samples Vale of Myth Narrative Bible (Full) Page 17 of 185 successful, but miners assigned to the lower levels have gone on strike rather than chance a meeting with monsters.

Toledo Prison The local prison is at the city end of the heavily fortified west bridge leading into Toledo. The bridge, prison, watch tower, southern gate, and mayor’s manor are all part of the fort structure serving as the bulk of the city’s defenses. As a result, the prison is well-made and sturdy. So much so, in fact, that the City Guard, led by Captain Marduk, has barracks within the prison itself (one floor above the prison’s right wing). Captain Marduk keeps an office within the barracks. Most prisoners are held in the left wing, important prisoners in the right wing (as they are closer to the barracks), and the north wing of the prison has been converted into a kennel for researching hostile animal phenomena. Gallows are just outside the prison proper.

Spanish Cliffs The Spanish Cliffs are shoreline cliffs along the South of Spain, connecting Spain and France, along with runs an old trade route. The trade route receives regular traffic but is in bad condition and dangerous. At the French end of the cliffs nestles The Old Monastery, which supplies haven for travellers and merchants.

Reports of monster sightings have increased dramatically within the past decade along the cliffs. Within the month prior to the start of the game, The Garguiem has moved to the Spanish Cliffs, in the process destroying the bridge leading east out of Toledo.

A group of bandits (Bosque's Bunch) robs caravans in the area despite repeated attempts by Toledo’s City Guard to route the brigandines.

Old Fort (Bandit Camp) Numerous abandoned forts and castles litter Spain. This old stone fort is atop the Singing Cliffs, and originally served to protect from French invasion. Spanish soldiers unintentionally build the fort atop the nest of Níðhöggr in 1100AD. When it awoke after a centuries slumber (1290 AD,) it went on a rampage, slaughtering the entire garrison. Due to the size of the creature, it caused significant structural damage to the fort, and the entrance collapsed in the chaos. After the carnage, the Níðhöggr returns to its den with plenty to eat and resumes its slumber. Since the fort was mostly self-sufficient, running on a skeleton crew, and isolated, the fate of the fort is undiscovered.

Bosque's Bunch while mapping out the Singing Cliffs, come across the fort (1310 AD,). Ignorant as to the fort’s history, they make camp within the outer walls of the fort and begin excavating the fort to entrench their camp. From this well-hidden position, they make a fortune ambushing caravans travelling along the Spanish Cliffs over the next five years. With the sudden arrival of the Garguiem and The Cuélebre, however, trade along the Spanish Cliff halts.

Bosque's Bunch spends a month with no one to rob, and food becomes hard to find. This quickly turns to infighting, and Bosque settles on a desperate plan to attack the Old Monastery to replenish supplies. The only thing preventing him from doing so is the Garguiem.

France Old Monastery The Old Monastery is an old stone monastery long past its prime. Monks and scribes inside the monastery keep the building and grounds to the best of their ability, but they lack masonry training and materials. The monastery is a haven for travellers and merchants navigating the Spanish Cliffs, as it stands directly along the route. It is situated roughly halfway between Toledo and Paris, and while the route is important, it is by no means a primary trade artery.

Father Pierre has led the monks for decades, and his gentle but firm hand has won him friends in all occupations. In 1312AD, He takes Daron Underwood under his wing, after Daron appears outside the monastery late one night. Daron for his part is fleeing from a dishonorable past. After seeing the monk’s kindness, he decides to stay and protect the monks from bandit attacks.

When the Garguiem makes a lair in the Spanish Cliffs, the lack of caravans coming through put the monastery in a dangerous position. Food is not easy to come by near the monastery, and so merchants often exchange supplies in exchange for shelter within the monastery walls. By the time the game begins, monastery supplies are running low.

Cave of the Dead The Cave of the Dead is a cave cutting through mountains bounding western France. Strange happenings are common at the cave; The Veil is very thin at the caves. The Cave connects the Old Monastery to Whispering Falls and saves roughly a fortnight in travel time. After reports of Reaper sightings in the caves in 1300AD, Monks boarded the cave up to protect unaware travellers.

The cave has a long and dark past. A group of villagers from Whispering Falls split off into a cult worshipping the death spirit Legion(1100AD), and in its name, they lured travellers in and sacrificed them

Copyright © Michael Morris-O’Connor, 2017 – 2021 Portfolio Samples Vale of Myth Narrative Bible (Full) Page 19 of 185 to the spirit. The cultists then discarded the bodies of the sacrifices into a mass grave in the cave. A group of Templars and an angry mob from Whispering Falls put the evil cult to the sword within the caves in 1130AD. Templars imprison the surviving cultists and the cities public execute the cultists within the year.

Unfortunately, bodies within the mass grave did not receive burial rites, and as a result, deathly spirits gather in the caves to this day.

Whispering Falls Whispering Falls disappeared from maps in 1130AD, sadly, the year that a mob from Whispering Falls helped Templar kill off the cult in the Cave of the Dead. Without its followers, Legion bides its time in the mass grave, regaining strength until it could create an Avatar from the bodies. Realizing opportunity, three Kornikaned, with a lair close to the town of Whispering Falls, made their move.

The Kornikaned are master-class illusionists, able to create false reality that is indistinguishable from true reality. Able to possess people, the Kornikaned possess leaders of the town. Using the superstitious roots in the town that saw the Legion Cult rise to prominence, the Kornikaned create a new cult centered around themselves. To this end, they decree that in exchange for their continued “benevolence,” the town will choose one person to sacrifice to them each year in a ceremony they refer to as the Hacinas Festival. With reality itself in question, and unable to effectively combat the Kornikaned themselves, the villagers have little choice but to comply. The Kornikaned then isolate the town by taking all visitors as sacrifices.

The Kornikaned, through this new arrangement, gain power quickly. While the Kornikaned are tied to the area near the town, the most powerful of the three takes over the body of a bandit named Bosque in 1308AD. With his followers none-the-wiser, Bosque journeys west to the Spanish Cliffs, and begins raiding caravans. Even so, the most powerful Kornikaned cannot remain away from its powerbase for long. The bandits bring survivors to Whispering Falls to sacrifice in exchange for coin. With recent activities, sacrifices have become hard to find.

Whispering Falls Arena Hidden away in a large cave secretly connected to the Whispering Falls lumber mill, an old arena sits. This cave system runs the entire distance between the town and the Kornikaned Lair. The reasoning behind the construction of the arena is unknown. In this arena, the yearly Hacinas Festival takes place, in which during ceremony, a live sacrifice is tied to a stake for the Tarasque to devour. The whole village must attend; those who refuse to attend became sacrifices themselves.

Kornikaned Lair Deeper in the caves, where light struggles to reach, lies the Kornikaned Lair. At the center of the lair, where the dark spirits are at their strongest, stands a Focus Orb. This orb is undiscovered by the Monster Hunters Guild and has made the Kornikaned inhabiting the cave much more dangerous.

Valle dei Setti Morti The Valle dei Setti Morti (Valley of the Seven Dead) is a lush swamp stretching between France and Italy. Travelers avoid the swamps due to a high density of monsters and restless spirits. Of particular note are the Will O’ Wisps, some guide travellers to sure footing, others guide travellers to their death. The Setti Valle Brewery was operated here by swamp locals, and produced Alligator Mead. The mead proved remarkably successful, but the brewery fell silent three years later. The Setti Valle Brewery workers were killed by a mercenary group hunting alligators as the unfortunate result of a dispute involving the brewery alligators.

Things did not go well for the mercenaries either. The angry souls of the brewery workers found sympathy in the swamp spirits, and the brewers returned to life as Swamp Creatures. With their new forms, they took revenge on the mercenaries, wiping them out in their entirety. Due to a lack of witnesses, the fate of the brewery is still unknown.

Paris The well-fortified capital of France, Paris, is a large city. The city has lower and upper districts, the lower districts hold the inn, shops, and stables. The upper districts house the palace and the social elite. Francis de la Fleur grew up in the de la Fleur manor here. Guards in the lower district are looking into the tragic death of a stable hand killed by horse. Guards have also received many complaints about unsettling noises coming from The Catacombs. The upper district is not without trouble either; the King is arguing with other nobles, and The Chapelle’s have put out requests for an exorcism.

Notre Dame Cathedral is set to put on a public art show at the time of the players arrival.

The Catacombs The Catacombs underneath Paris stretch for miles. Originally used by Christians to bury their dead in secret, the Catacombs are overrun by monsters. Crypt builder hide tombs within the Catacombs, or set them with traps to deter grave robbers, and areas of the Catacombs are in danger of collapse.

Germany Devil’s Cemetery The Devil’s Cemetery is a long-abandoned graveyard in Germany. The graveyard has a long history of hauntings, being in an area where The Veil is thinnest. So much so that it is rumored to be a gateway to Hell itself. Grave robbers avoid the area as well – traps riddle the crypts and each crypt lays behind thick stone doors. An unexplored network of caves runs near the crypts, and in some places, crumbled crypt walls offer entrance to the caves.

Italy Venice Venice is a large trade city bridging one hundred and seventeen islands and is famous for its innumerable waterways in place of roads. Gondoliers offer a quick way to get around the city. The city is known for its ship building; building takes place inside a large ship docks called The Arsenal. Citizens paint buildings in bright colors. The Doge runs the city-state and Venice has strong Catholic ties.

Rumors abound about a Succubus killing people at night, local shops are being extorted, and the Guard is struggling to arrest a local smuggling ring. If that wasn’t enough to deal with, a Strix has taken up roost in The Clock Tower.

Amé Morte The Templar flagship captained by Siegfried Morgenstern. Though a flagship, it looks old and worn. When it docks at Venice, it really sticks out. Siegfried Morgenstern is given the Amé Morte after warning the Templar fleet that Pope Clement the Fifth had begun the Templar Purge. Despite its tattered appearance, the ship is ready for war. The Amé Morte has starboard, port, and aft cannon batteries, and a brig for securing unruly prisoners.

The spirit of the Amé Morte, attuned to a destructive desire for success, draws to it the souls of Templars unjustly executed. Souls who agree to serve it are bound to the ship until the completion of the captain’s mission, Siegfried Morgenstern’s quest to revive the Templar Order. After the quest ends, those serving the ship go to Golgotha.

This Soul Binding gives the Amé Morte unique powers. All Templar are immortal while on board the ship, though they can still take injury and become tired. The galleon travels at twice the speed it could otherwise reach and can disappear in thick fog to hide.

Spirit Realm Golgotha Golgotha, meaning “place of the skull,” is also known as the Land of the Dead. Located within Death’s domain within the Spirit Realm, it is best summarized as an enormous ossuary (amalgamated from the bones of all deceased life), meets Limbo, meets the Disney depiction of Hades. It is completely hostile to life; any living creature or external spirit that somehow reaches Golgotha slowly chokes to death on the Black Mist, a stagnant poisonous air. As such, the sand in Golgotha is ash, the ground is layers upon layers of bone, the water is lethal – full of tormented souls - the air is still, and the mountains Obsidian (no minerals can grow in Obsidian). The only respite is Holy Circles, around which life blooms and a small dome of protection wards off the Black Mist. Another item, called the Herald Marrow also protects against the mist. This item and Holy Circles are concessions to messenger spirits which need to survive the trek through Golgotha to fulfill their duty.

Golgotha itself includes several distinct regions. Souls first arrive on outside the massive bone Gates of the Dead. A long queue of souls waiting in line winds its way up to the gates. The gates are flanked on both sides by sheer Obsidian cliffs, which along with the Soulsea, isolate the entrance peninsula from the rest of Golgotha. North of the entrance lay the Dying Wastes, the Path of Ascension, The Great Necropolis, and the Hill of Despair.

The Judge sorts the souls at the front of the line. The Chosen Ones pass through the thick gates and take a leisurely stroll up to the teleporter, which sends them straight to The Great Necropolis (haven). This teleporter sends those not chosen to the Dying Wastes. Souls suffering this fate must make the hard and perilous journey up to The Great Necropolis, or wither into Shades.

The Dying Wastes are a vast expanse of bone and stone remnants of old temples. The Soulsea eats into the wastes, and ultimately will consume it entirely (hence the name). Souls braving the Dying Wastes must avoid Skulleaters (colossal sentient bone collections that devour hills, structures, souls, and spirits) and vengeful spirits, and then must climb to the very top of the Path of Ascension (an obsidian mountain range), at the pinnacle of which The Great Necropolis sits. Rarely, a Skulleater will try to climb up the Path of Ascension to feed on those cowering in The Great Necropolis, but vigilant souls (often warriors from a past life) defend the necropolis by hurtling boulders and throwing spears made from sharpened bone. These defenses easily unbalance Skulleaters (already heavy, clumsy, and misshapen) and the Skulleaters fall to their death.

The Great Necropolis The Great Necropolis is the safest place in all of Golgotha. The blessings of Greater Spirits, constant patrols, and services are provided by the Luminaires fortify the necropolis. The Luminaires are spirits tied to The Great Necropolis, and ultimately, when Golgotha perishes, The Luminaires will die an Eternal Death as well. In the center of the town stands an old spire, which all residents avoid. At the apex of the tower is an old soul called The Seer, who bears an Eternal Curse.

At the heart of The Great Necropolis lies the Well of Souls. This massive cistern is where all souls in the Soulsea return once every thousand years. Souls are under the authority of a Greater Spirit, and so no soul can die an Eternal Death before judgement by that spirit. Yet souls and spirits in Golgotha do disperse if they spend too long away from the necropolis or a Skulleater eats them. In such cases, these souls regenerate in the Soulsea, an agonizing process that lasts until they return to the Well of Souls and finish reforming into their soul or spirit form. Since non-chosen souls can enter The Great Necropolis (if they can survive the trip), crimes can happen. Any soul stupid enough to commit a crime in The Great Necropolis disperses – sending it back to the Soulsea. As one can well imagine, there are very few crimes that could possibly be worth a millennium of blinding pain. Luminaires banish souls that repeatedly commit crimes to The Hill of Despair, an isolated area from which it is impossible to return to The Great Necropolis.

Bio Born into a large MacCallum family in Scotland, Garbhan had a childhood full of troublemaking and fighting. Garbhan’s love of fighting continued into adulthood, where it was joined by a love for drinking. After a group of adventurers exploited the hospitality of Garbhan’s hometown, he embarked on a journey. He seeks to become a legend among legends and return to Scotland to shame those who abuse their titles for personal gain. While Garbhan cost many villagers their hair and money, the village misses him in his absence. Garbhan set sail from Scotland and landed in Spain, where he heard rumors of a town beset by trouble. Garbhan recognized their plight and set out for Toledo. After arriving in Toledo, Garbhan grabbed a drink at the bar, which is where and when the game begins.

Bio Story / Plot Involvement Protagonist player-character, involved in almost all missions Character Development Francis and Garbhan are close to opposites. From Francis, Garbhan learns to respect other forms of masculinity, and from Garbhan Francis learns courage. Near the end of the game, Francis has overcome his fear and learns to assert himself. Along with the countless hours of practice Francis pours into his craft, these realizations enable him to become a successful Bard.

Bio Born into the Nuevo Riche De La Fleur family in Paris, Francis had a hard but happy childhood. Openly looked down upon for his musical inability, Francis nonetheless dedicated himself admirably to his craft. He struggled during his studies when it came to musical instruments, and spent many late nights practicing and studying early into the morning. After finishing his studies, Francis left home to follow in his parent’s footsteps, to become a great performer abroad. Parisians do miss Francis and his gentle, cheery nature, but they don’t miss his music. From Paris, Francis headed west to Spain. After two years of touring his travels led him to Toledo. He enters the bar with aching feet just in time for Garbhan to confront the barkeep about payment. Talk about bad timing.

Francis is quick to perform and refuses to let his constant setbacks define his career as a Bard.

Intrigued by Isabella’s descriptions of her home country, he goes to France. He hears about the Old Monastery, an isolated but not too remote monk community, and he heads there, intending to seek reconciliation and the strength to overcome his womanizing ways.

Story / Plot Involvement Protagonist player-character, involved in most missions Character Development Daron Underwood, like Siegfried Morgenstern, struggles to find a family and home. To make matters worse, the ones Daron finds he loses. Where Siegfried Morgenstern fights against fate to bring his family and home back, Daron Underwood grimly accepts his change in circumstances. The two, in this way, serve as contrasts to one another, and learn from one another. Siegfried Morgenstern learns to accept some things won’t change, and Daron learns to stand up for his home and family.

Daron is orphaned early on and is raised by the local parish. In 1290AD, King Edward I is devastated by the death of his beloved wife, Eleanor of Castile, and, by chance, comes to Daron’s parish. He takes an instant liking to Daron and adopts him, raising him to become a Knight. Looking to bring closure to his disjointed childhood, Daron looks to become a Paladin, an exemplar that embodies the values of his Catholic beliefs and his military upbringing. This ideal proves exceedingly difficult for him.

Daron struggles with lust. Having skill at becoming close to others but having difficulty with long term relationships (due to his upbringing), Daron’s skillset sets him up for failure. He becomes notorious as a skirt chaser and his detractors use this weakness to strain Daron’s relationships in the court. More than these barbs, Daron’s strong catholic upbringing causes him internal pain as well. He is keenly aware that he cannot become a Paladin while so far from upholding the values of his faith, and yet his lack of female mentorship in his youth continues to attract him to women of all walks in life.

After a consensual affair with Queen Isabella of France, Daron is overcome by shame, feeling that he has taken advantage of the king’s trust in him. He leaves England in the dead of night, and heads to France. There he is taken in by Father Pierre, and dedicates himself to protecting the monastery, intent on mastering his struggles with sexual desire. Unfortunately, after three years arduous work, Daron still struggles with his lust. At his mentor’s dying request, Daron begins traveling with Garbhan and Francis.

During that travel, Sienna (a human Succubus hybrid), approaches Daron in Venice for what seems to be a casual sexual encounter. Daron comes to realize that like him, Sienna also struggles with desire, and she also comes from a religious background that causes her guilt. With these realizations and his painful past combined, Daron resists Sienna’s advances, showing his growth in self-control. More so, it provides a chance for dialogue Sienna herself needs. The player does not determine whether Daron is able to refuse Sienna, but they do determine the outcome of the encounter. If the player succeeds, Daron gains Sienna’s romantic interest. The two have a much deeper romantic encounter instead, leading to a long-term relationship between the two. If the player fails, this relationship does not happen.

Bio Daron became an orphan in his early childhood, when both his parents died in battle during the Welsh Wars in 1287AD. The local parish took him in, and he became a devout Catholic. In 1290AD, King Edward I is devastated by the death of his beloved wife, Eleanor of Castile, to whom he was faithful for the duration of their marriage. In his grief, he traveled to the countryside and, by chance, came to Daron’s parish. He took an instant liking to Daron and quickly learnt that both Daron’s parents died serving him during the Welsh Wars. Feeling connected to Daron through sorrow, he took the boy with him and raised him to become a Knight. Since King Edward did not take another wife, Daron was raised without a mother and had no family model to base his future relationships on. Eager to make his adopted father proud, Daron threw himself into his studies, particularly into matters of battle, strategy, and Chivalry. He proved a natural at all these studies, displaying skill in manners of etiquette and courtship. While his elevated status made him no small number of enemies, Daron’s wit and charm kept his detractors at bay.

Daron grieved when King Edward I died in 1307AD, but his successor, King Edward II, saw potential in Daron Underwood and formally knighted him. Daron Underwood continued to rise through the ranks as he proved himself in battle against the Scots, and during the Battle of Bannockburn (here shifted to 1311AD), he stalled the Scots long enough for King Edward II to retreat from the battlefield. In the process, Daron lost his right eye and lost

Copyright © Michael Morris-O’Connor, 2017 – 2021 Portfolio Samples Vale of Myth Narrative Bible (Full) Page 32 of 185 consciousness. He was left for dead as the Scots routed the English and pursued King Edward II. He woke after the battle and returned to the king.

Aware of Daron’s role in saving his life, King Edward II welcomed Daron back with open arms. With the king now courting Hugh Despenser the Younger, Isabella of France approached Daron Underwood in secret. Herself feeling hurt, rejected, and angry, she and Daron Underwood began an affair. While feeling some guilt, Daron did not refuse the affair. After a year’s time, however, Daron’s guilt overcame him. Feeling he had failed both his family and himself, and unable to deal with his guilt, Daron left England entirely, going by boat to France. Eventually he came to live at the Old Monastery. Father Pierre took him in and taught him in the ways of the faith.

This shared value draws the two together, as Misako takes interest in a man who recognizes her strength and capability. He stands in sharp contrast to her suitors, who sought her only for her beauty, and who expected her to become a house-bound wife. This rejection of her warrior self fuels her dislike of Daron Underwood, who, in following the code of Chivalry, tries to protect her and keep her away from the field of battle.

Misako struggles to reconcile love and relationships as parts of her life. Misako thinks relationships are for the weak. She feels that entering a relationship means giving up her devotion to the sword. As she grows, she struggles to accept her more feminine aspects, which she rejects because of her mother. Her journey is learning that relationships and love do not make us weak, but rather, in exposing and trusting ourselves to another, make us stronger. Likewise, accepting her feminine side requires strength, not weakness. She also struggles to accept that a loving relationship could encourage and grow her career, rather than stifle it. Through these realizations, Misako grows closer to understanding her mother. Misako grows tremendously, and as their relationship deepens, Garbhan grows tremendously as well.

Bio Born into the most prestigious blacksmithing family in Japan, Misako Masamune spent her life around weapons. Even as a young child, Misako took keen interest in her father’s work and devoted herself to the sword. She practiced daily with whatever spare weapon she could find around the shop. Her father was happy to share his trade, and to support his daughter’s interests. He taught her how to forge and wield all manner of weapons effectively. Her mother, being much more conservative, couldn’t stand Misako training for a generally male profession, and tension between Misako’s studies with her mother and sword lessons with her father developed quickly. Sadly, this tension became her new norm, as Misako rejected the conservative role of women in feudal Japan and embraced the sword. By the age of twelve, Misako had years of practice under her belt and astounded one of her father’s clients, a Samurai named Kusunoki Masashige. Kusunoki offered to teach young Misako in the ways of the Samurai, in recognition of her talents, and as thanks for her father’s work. Okazaki Masamune accepted and Misako began regular tutelage under this Samurai. Her mother was livid. Her father had reasoning behind his decision; Misako’s devotion to the sword had only become stronger over the past eight years and her talents best prepared her for battle. As a warrior, Misako’s career prospects were poor. However, as a Samurai, Misako would have a chance to serve a lord, and live amidst the upper class.

By 20, Misako was a legend. While Misako clearly inherited her mother’s beauty, she is sought for her political value. Misako comes from a highly influential family, one favored by the Emperor. All manner of suitors looking to make political power plays flocked from miles around to see the blacksmith’s daughter. Misako though, simply wasn’t interested. Unfortunately, some suitors were not so accepting of a Samurai woman, and even less so when she rejected their advances. Misako made several dangerous enemies, one of whom is a Wokou (Japanese pirate) by the name of Neikan Kotarou. He returned with a dozen men to take his revenge on the Masamune family. Misako cut him down and killed his allies to protect her family. That night, her father gifted her with a sword of his own making to protect her as a samurai. Her mother gifted her with a hairpin, a small concession she insists Misako make for her feminine side. Despite her warring feelings about the role of her femininity, Misako accepted the hairpin. Keenly aware that Neikan’s death will not go unanswered, all agreed that Misako and her family will be safer if she left Japan.

With a heavy heart, Misako adopted the alias “Eve” and paid for passage aboard a local trading vessel to China. From there, she made her way west, finding work as a mercenary. By the age of 27, Eve arrives in Paris, and after several years of travel and battle, stays there a while to rest. Like Garbhan, she now bears many burns and scars from all the combat she has seen. While recuperating here, she meets Garbhan MacCallum and company. She also meets Hibiki, an assassin from her home country, who she assumes is after her.

Bio

Siegfried Morgenstern’s story is a tragic one. Siegfried is born into the Morgenstern noble family, and after witnessing Knights Templar marching through the streets became fascinated with them. After he became old enough to join their ranks, he discarded his noble privilege to join. He insisted that he not receive benefits due to his lineage and started at the lowest rank in the order. He developed into adulthood fighting for the Church wherever conflict arose, and his ferocity in battle earned him the nickname “The Lion.” Captain Marduk was impressed by Siegfried and approached him. The two became quick friends. Captain Marduk brought Siegfried forward to his superiors, and Siegfried rose quickly through the ranks, continually impressing his peers and superiors alike with his passion, skill, and ironclad sense of justice.

In the proudest moment of his life, Siegfried is appointed the youngest Master of the Order in Templar history. Shortly afterwards, he is blindsided by the Templar Purge. Captain Marduk left the order and took up the role of Captain of the Guard in Toledo. Unable to accept the injustice of this chain of events, Siegfried put himself at risk to broker a deal with the Pope. Pope Clement the Fifth, concealing his own agenda in the Templar Purge and looking to put himself in the best light, agreed to restore the Templar Knights on the condition that Siegfried gather enough allies to his cause. While Pope Clement the Fifth was aware that many of the allies Siegfried requires helped arrange the Templar Purge, Siegfried was not. Unaware that the task given to him was all but impossible, he happily accepted the deal, and spent two years travelling between kingdoms to gather allies to his cause.

At the end of these two years, Siegfried is traveling from Paris to Venice when he finds himself in a fierce storm. Forced to seek shelter, he and his allies escape the rain in a nearby church. Siegfried brooded over his lack of success in finding a single ally to his cause. His aides – significantly less distracted - quickly realized they are in a cursed place, the Devil’s Graveyard. Undeterred by such superstitions, Siegfried sent the protesting guards to secure the church and to set up camp. Siegfried ordered Templar Otto to stand first watch. Siegfried and Templar Nigel sleep.

Nightmares plagued Siegfried, and he woke with a start. Otto was gone. He woke the other Templar, Nigel, informed him of the situation, and ordered him to remain in the church until Siegfried returned with Otto. With no sign of Otto in the church, Siegfried headed out into the storm, where he heard faint cries for help. These cries led him to a large crypt, with large doors now ajar. Siegfried headed inside and followed Otto’s voice to a back passage in the crypt. Siegfried rushed to the prone Otto, and after examining him, came to the disturbing realization that Otto had been dead for hours. In examining Otto, Siegfried shifted Otto’s body off a pressure plate, and with a loud clang the iron door locked itself behind Siegfried. With no other options open to him, Siegfried headed deeper into the crypt intent on finding an exit. After walking through a mass grave of servants, Siegfried found what seemed to be another chamber of the crypt. While not shown to the player, Siegfried here encountered Satan, who called out to him as if a friend. Siegfried was naturally hostile to the encounter, but Satan offered him the help he needed most, leverage over the kingdoms he needed as allies. Unable to refuse the offer, Siegfried agreed. Satan gave Siegfried the power of the Nephilim, and the authority to pass that power to others. In exchange, Satan demanded Siegfried kill four people, who he warned will bring about a great calamity. If this calamity comes about, then the Templar Order will never reform. Satan then teleported Siegfried outside the crypt and sealed the crypt’s thick stone doors behind him. Siegfried returned to the church, consoled his remaining aide, and began making immediate plans to use this new power to his advantage. Realizing Satan will characteristically betray him, Siegfried plotted to use this new power as a bargaining tool and the means to kill Satan.

On the road once more, Siegfried ordered preparations for Otto’s funeral and paid for it, out of regret for his failure to protect Otto and to recover Otto’s body, or as he would put it a failure “to properly care for the men under his command.” Putting his plans in Venice on hold, Siegfried returned to England, where, with his new power, he convinced King Edward II to back the Templar Order in exchange for the power of the Nephilim. King Edward II, facing a crisis in public confidence, saw this new power as the means to decisively crush Robert the Bruce. Before leaving England, Siegfried hired the assassin Hibiki to kill the most vocal of his opposition Aristotle Sunseri.

Expanded Story Breakout The game begins with Garbhan drinking at a tavern in Toledo, Spain. After hearing about a bounty for killing the Cuélebre, which is destroying food caravans needed by the city, Garbhan loudly boasts that he will kill the monster. He leaves town, heads to the last sighting of the monster, lures it out of its den, and kills the Cuélebre. Garbhan returns to town, but the barkeep is unable to pay the reward and swindles Garbhan out of the prize money. Just as a fight is about to break out, Francis De La Fleur walks in. Sensing the mood, he tries to sing to bring a peaceful end to the altercation. His singing drives all the patrons from the tavern, and guards arrest Garbhan and Francis for disturbing the peace.

While the protagonists are in prison, Satan magically unlocks all cell doors – including those on the kennels – in a bid to kill Garbhan and Francis to prevent them taking part in the Third Trial (a divine contest). Wolves from the prison start killing guards and prisoners alike. Garbhan and Francis kill the wolves, rescue the prisoners, and the captain of the guard lets the protagonists free for their efforts. Francis, tired from his travels, asks Garbhan to escort him back to Paris in exchange for fame. Elsewhere, the Garguiem isolates Bosque’s Bunch (bandits) to the Spanish Cliffs by destroying the east bridge out of Toledo and by making a den near the Old Monastery. Since the east bridge is down, Garbhan and Francis fight their way through an alternate route in the Toledo Mines to reach the Spanish Cliffs. While traveling the cliffs, Garbhan and Francis fight and kill the Garguiem. Gaea then appears to them in human form and explains she is here to guide them. To avoid arousing suspicion, she travels on Francis’ shoulder in bird form. Tired from the long day, the party seeks refuge in the Old Monastery, guarded by Daron Underwood. Despite Daron’s reluctance, Father Pierre allows the two to spend the night inside the monastery. Bosque’s Bunch (bandits) no longer trapped by the Garguiem and desperate for food, attack the monastery early the next day. Garbhan, Francis, and Daron fight the bandits off, but Father Pierre (Daron’s father figure) dies during the attack. Honoring his last wish, Daron leaves the monastery to travel with Garbhan and Francis.

The party makes their way to Whispering Falls, which they are unaware is a cult town dedicated to the Kornikaned, master illusionist fairies that feed on human flesh. Garbhan and company stop at the tavern for a drink. The barkeep here drugs the drinks without the party noticing, and the protagonists wake up to find themselves part of a sacrificial offering. With some sly help from Old Man Benjamin, whose son was last sacrificed, the heroes kill the Kornikaned and free the town.

Garbhan and Daron safely escort Francis back to Paris. He invites them to meet his family, and the trio attend a local art event, where Francis’ parents will sing a song in the party’s honor. There they meet Eve, who rescues the party from an assassination attempt by Hibiki. Eve chases off after the assassin, and the trio follow suit. Hibiki ambushes Eve in the winding tunnels of the Catacombs and incapacitates her. Garbhan and company confront Hibiki in the Catacombs, but Hibiki escapes by causing a cave-in. In the process, Hibiki drops a note explaining that he must return to Venice. Wisely assuming Hibiki will head that way, the party trek across the Valle dei Setti Morti swamp and reach Venice.

Garbhan and co. meet at the pub and devise a plan to canvas the town for information on Hibiki and Eve. Despite it being late, time is of the essence, and Garbhan and Francis leave to begin their search. Once alone, a woman Sienna approaches Daron. If Daron woos her successfully, then after reaching her room, Sienna reveals that she is a

Copyright © Michael Morris-O’Connor, 2017 – 2021 Portfolio Samples Vale of Myth Narrative Bible (Full) Page 60 of 185 succubus, and that Daron has made her feel human again. She presents him with a gift out of genuine affection, and when asked about Hibiki, she tells him about a murder at the Clock Tower. With her human aspect reawakened, she says she’ll see Daron again and goes on a journey to find less violent ways to deal with her half-demon nature. If Daron does not woo her, then the above scene does not happen. Either way, Daron leaves the pub.

Garbhan and Francis notice a body hanging out of the clock tower window while waiting for Daron. One Daron rejoins the group, they knock out the guard protecting the clock tower and enter it. After fighting their way to the top, they investigate the body. Clues on the body lead the party to conclude that Hibiki was in some way involved, and a ticket dropped nearby clues them in to investigate the Amé Morte. After finding the Amé Morte in the docks, they board under the comical false pretense of being the new janitorial staff. Once the ship leaves port, they begin to search for Eve. They find her in the brig, where Hibiki and two guards are surprised to see Eve has escaped her bindings. Eve drops unnoticed from the rafters and strikes all three with lethal blows. Eve, Garbhan, Francis, and Daron all meet, and Eve joins the party. With all four party members together, the divine contest can finally begin, or at least it can begin after they escape from the Amé Morte. Hibiki taunts the party by claiming they will never escape the Amé Morte, as a “curse” on the ship prevents Templars aboard it from dying. He and the two guards then raise to their feet and battle the party.

Running through the ship to the deck, Garbhan and company find themselves surrounded by Templars. Siegfried walks forward from between the ranks and exclaims with delight his good fortune that all four of the people he claims will bring about calamity are here on his ship, and after a brief battle, the party loses. Gaea, in a desperate attempt to save the party uses her power to rip open a gate to the Spirit Realm, and the party dives through. The resulting magical storm shreds the Amé Morte, but Siegfried and many of the Templars survive.

Garbhan and company awake to find themselves in Golgotha (the land of the dead). Furious and disheartened at losing a battle so easily, it takes a reality check and Francis to get them out of their slump. After looking around, the party realizes things are looking even worse than before, and a weakened Gaea explains she didn’t have enough power to get the party to a haven. If the heroes can reach The Great Necropolis, they will be safe there. To do this, the party must journey across Golgotha, fighting their way through the Dying Wastes, climbing the Path of Ascension, through the obsidian mountains, and then, finally, reaching The Great Necropolis.

Once at The Great Necropolis, Gaea takes Garbhan and company to the Well of Souls. There she explains that her role is to bring Garbhan, Francis, Daron, and Eve together so that they could compete in a divine contest. Unfortunately, due to the actions of Siegfried and the devil, the contest is now impossible. Seeking wisdom, the party then visits The Seer, a spirit atop a spire in the middle of The Great Necropolis. The Seer explains who Siegfried is and mentions that Siegfried has become imbued. The Seer and Gaea then imbue a fragment of their essence into the soul of each party member, elevating each of them to Nephilim. This, they clarify, should even the odds enough that victory might be possible. The Seer explains how the party might escape Golgotha, and the party follows his advice. Death stops the party mere feet from escape. Francis challenges Death to a quiz show, and after the party passes the show, Death becomes furious. Death attacks the party, and thanks to the help of Gaea, Garbhan and company stun Death and escape. They reach a thin point in the Veil and return to the Physical Realm through it.

Game Systems Titles Titles synchronize with Achievements. Titles are in-game titles and honorifics earned by adventurers by completing heroic deeds. Each accolade earned strengthens the heroes so that they might achieve even greater feats. If new heroes join the party after earning titles, those new heroes will automatically gain all the benefits of the titles already unlocked. In short, there is no benefit to delay earning titles until the hero party is full.

Titles, like achievements, carry over across playthroughs. Once earned, titles are permanent. As with preferences, titles are universal across all save files.

Enemy Encounters All battles have visible enemies on maps. Enemies will stay still or wander aimlessly until they see a hero and will then chase after the player. Most enemies appear on maps as dark silhouettes surrounded by black fog. While a little hard to see, these silhouettes show how strong an enemy is.

A. Servlings are weak monsters that cause minimal casualties. B. Banes are stronger monsters that can easily kill armed guards. C. Lords (Elites) are monsters can destroy small settlements. D. Arch-Lords (Bosses) are the strongest monsters. They can destroy entire cities. Only heroes, armies, or groups of Monster Hunters can put a stop to these nightmare creatures.

Four other monster types are worth noting:

• Bat (left, second row) indices flying monsters. Flying monsters are resilient to physical attacks. • Blob (middle, second row) means slime monsters. These are not common. • Eye (right, second row) is a monster that calls repeatedly for reinforcements. • Wolves, boars, and other large animals are wild animal enemies driven mad.

Small animals like Rabbits, squirrels, and frogs are wild but non-hostile. They will run when approached.

Combat Systems Battle in Vale of Myth plays out like traditional turn-based battle systems with some significant differences.

Turn Order Turns in Vale of Myth occur instantly. In other words, there is no ATB system or time system in place. This is a conscious choice to keep combat fast paced and engaging. A rubber-banding system is in place to prevent monsters and heroes from turn starvation due to high Speeds and turn-delay effects.

The Turn Order displays at the top-right of the screen. Combatants move from the right to the left. When they reach the left-most position, they have the current turn.

Rage Rage builds based on different events for hero characters (see each Hero section for more information) and rage builds for all monsters. Once a rage bar is full the hero - or monster - it belongs to can use a super-attack. In general, these rage attacks hurt. Each hero has different rage attacks, and monsters have different rages depending on their build and weapons.

Since most monsters build rage when hit and when attacking, it might seem like monster rage attacks are inevitable, however, Status Ailments come to the rescue here! Status Ailments can increase or decrease a target’s Rage. Managing the rage of both heroes and monsters is an important tactical element in Vale of Myth.

Curse Rage charges at half of normal rate

Fear Rage charges at quarter of normal rate

Confuse Rage drops by 10

Infatuate Rage drops by 20

Sleep Rage does not charge, rage reduced by 20

Status Ailment interaction is on the next page.

Status Ailments Status Ailments in Vale of Myth are powerful, able to affect heroes, monsters, and bosses alike. Domains segregate these ailments. In general, no two levels of Status Ailments in one domain can be active at once (except for Blessing and Curse domains). The higher the level an ailment has in a domain, the more debilitating it is. Higher-level Status Ailments remove lower-level Status Ailments. For example, if a target receives the Aflame status ailment while already suffering with the Bleed status ailment, then the Bleed status ends.

Likewise, Status Ailments that are logical opposites cancel each other out. If a target receives the Attack Up status ailment while suffering from the Attack Down status ailment, Attack Up and Attack Down ailments will cancel each other out, resulting in the removal of both ailments from the target.

Ailment Spread A few ailments, Aflame and Plague, both spread every round to the nearest party member without the Status Ailment. This makes Aflame and Plague much more dangerous, as they can bypass the front row and damage the whole party. This effect mimics the effect of disease and fire spreading and makes the highest levels of the Life Drain Domain nastier problems.

Elements Elements are either Primary or Secondary elements. Most elements have a corresponding weakness, and like most games, attacking an elemental weakness does more damage.

Great Auras There exist monsters so odious, so foul, that even being near them will cause Physical and Mental Ailments. Such things are “Great Auras.” A Great Aura inflicts Status Ailments at the start of every round of battle (once all combatants have taken their turn).

As such, trying to remove the Ailment is a futile endeavour. Status immunities can be ineffective against Great Auras. Take care to create strategies against foes with Great Auras that consider these ailments.

As a rule, if the enemy is a Lord or Arch-Lord, they are likely to have a Great Aura.

Reinforcements Enemies can call in reinforcements. Most such enemies call strong allies into play. It is important to dispatch these enemies as quickly as possible.

World Event System Vale of Myth makes use of a World Event system. This system tracks significant changes to the state of the game world – for example, whether the Cuélebre is alive or dead. These events can change a few things or many and can be small or large. These events can change NPC dialogue, music, area appearance, new stores, new quests, new shortcuts, and more! The World Event system adds a large degree of player involvement in the game world and recognition of player accomplishments. We hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed putting it together.

Character Classes Highlander Garbhan MacCallum, the main protagonist, serves as the party Highlander. Highlanders are damage powerhouses, focused on raw physical attack and attack increasing skills. They have the highest physical attack stat of all hero classes and the highest HP maximum, making them excellent damage sponges. They build rage most quickly by taking and dealing damage. On the downside, Highlanders lack ranged abilities. They also cannot wear heavy armor or use shields and as a result have a lower defensive potential than most other hero classes. Bard Francis de la Fleur is the party Bard. Despite low HP levels, Bard’s are perhaps the most important hero class. They are the only hero class to have a wide range of all-enemy and all-ally skills and they have the most comprehensive healing skills of any hero class. In sharp contrast to Highlanders, Bards build rage most effectively when teammates suffer damage and when Bards heal companions. Bards use light weapons and armor and suffer a low physical attack stat. They make up for this with a high magic attack stat, so if a Bard is singing, they can clean house. While primarily a healer, a couple Bard skills are invaluable damage dealers in the early game. Although it may seem like common sense, singing is ineffectual against monsters with dull senses or no ears. Knight Daron Underwood serves as the party Knight. Knights fight the most defensively of all hero classes. Given their training and time in war, they focus on resilient defense and favor spears. Knights builds rage most effectively protecting teammates, and when one of them suffers a mortal wound (Dying). They build rage from attacking enemies, but noticeably less than other hero classes. Knight’s naturally high defense, and their defense boosts and provoking abilities, allow them to funnel attacks away from weaker party members. In short, Knights are not likely to get a high kill count, but they can work miracles keeping the party on its feet. Ronin Eve (Misako Masamune) is the party Ronin. Ronin’s favor Katanas and multiple, fast strikes in battle. Like Highlanders, they build rage most effectively by taking and dealing damage. Ronin Basic Attack hit twice, and their attacks inflict status ailments. Ronin’s focus on Spirit energy or “Chi” to heal themselves of injuries and poisons. At higher levels, they can turn that energy into damaging blasts. Ronin Spirit abilities deal 20% less damage to all enemies than other elements, but they are equally effective across all element types. Templars, Knights, and Ronin are the only hero classes able to wear heavy armors. Templar Siegfried Morgenstern fights as the Templar hero class. They fight like a mix between Highlanders and Knights. Where Knights focus on defensive strategies, Templar are more aggressive. They gain rage in the same way as Knights – gaining rage when covering allies, or when allies suffer mortal wounds. Templar have one or two combos but focus on single-hard strikes. Two skills are worth mention: Manslayer is a strong blow with a chance of causing instant-death, and Haven in Faith restores double that of other hero classes! These incredible skills are the result of many years battling in the name of the church.

Light armor emphasizes flexibility and ease of use Armor Light Armor above protection. Light armors are often cloth, padded protection, and light chain and leather protections. Medium Medium armors are compromises, combining the Armor Armor protection of parts of stronger armors with a lower weight limit. Mediums armors often take the form of layered chain and leather armors, and armors with metal plates. Bracers are various wraps or metal protecting the Armor Bracer hand, wrist, and forearm.
