<div class="IPBDescription">A mmorpg thats still in development</div>For those of you that didn't know (a.k.a almost all of you) i am a freelance game designer (the main reason that i'm freelance is because i'm 15 <!--emo&;)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'><!--endemo--> )

But anyway the reason i'm posting this is that i've decided to tell you all a bit about this game that i have being working on for the past two years, it's a MMORPG called bloodlines.(Still in Concept Phase)

because of my paranoia about someone stealing my idea, i won't go into too much detail.

<b>Dynamic mouse controlled battle</b> (like in Silver, but in 3d and more complex)
<b>9 playable races</b> (currently 4 NPC only races)
<b>Passive learning</b> (eg. hang around fire mages and you will eventually learn rudementry fire magic)
<b>Evolutionary mating</b> (human + dragon = gargolye)
<b>Only five levels</b> (like those russian dolls, you have your 5 'surface' levels then inside that you have 5 levels each for skills like combat and magic, then say insde combat you have 5 levels for hand to hand combat and 5 levels for swordsmanship. and so on and so on)

trust me, there are alot more features than that.

one last one for you to think about:
when you die you take control of one of your offspring, and the plan is that anything that your offspring learns is retained when you take over.

    Only 1. Human + Dragon = Gargoyle? Sooo, I'd have to be around a dragon long enough to be romantically involved? I hardly think I'll be there long enough to run away.

    spyder: dragons are not the only choice when it comes to choosing mates.
    /me shall now list all of the playable races

    Dragon
    Gargolye
    Nymph
    Giant
    Behemoth
    Dwarf
    Underling (little slave guys, incredably weak)
    Darkling  (what you get when an underling gets posessed by a shade(an evil little black mist). Darklings are definatly not weak)
    Human

    Interfector: i don't know yet, i'm pretty interested in the Auran JET engine. But considering my minimal knowledge of programing and that the team currently consists of me myself and i...
