Welcome back!

The Second development post for In The Realm

Enjoy

First order of business is recognizing the links from Tumblr and Reddit, which can be found here and here. Why? I don't know, I just thought I should.

Secondly, I want to clarify that as the game is still in development. Anything is up for complete redesign later. This game is a work in progress.

Onward!

As of right now, there are 8 Major Inhabitants to play as. Humans, Ta' Sin, Vixxen, Minks, AITHTIABs, Mystens, Yz, and Scraps! 

Each inhabitant is interesting in their own way and has special abilities. Here are some general summaries:

Humans - Duh Herf, they are Humans.

Ta' Sin - Large goat-esque creatures that live on a damningly hot planet and are master forgers. They craft the most awe-inspiring equipment out of the finest materials, and aren't ones to be crossed for their hot tempers.

Vixxen - Creatures that look similar to that of a rat and a wolf, the Vixxen are mass brawlers. Their primitive ideals lead them to be excellent, dim witted fighters. Though they don't conventionally use weapons, Vixxen find the occasional stick or club very good for their blood lust. 

Minks - Lanky, pale alien looking creatures that climb and sneak around large urban cities, Minks are considered the vermin of their planet, giving them exceptional abilities for sneaking and hiding. The realm has given them new meaning for their murderous and stealing skills!

Artificial Intelligence That Happens to Inhabit a Humanoid Being (AITHTIAB) - Small, parasitic microchips that live in a robot chassis or a living being. AITHTIABs exist to further their technological genius and advance their AI. Damn good with a firearm and smart enough to win 'Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader', they know their way around.

Mystens - Beings with heads of bronze and fragile cloaks, the Mysten is a mysterious creature. Their faces represent locks, sometimes with horns or other protrusions to compliment them. They harness a powerful sorcery that most call Bullshit, due to it's unfair advantage.s

Yz - A faceless humanoid that wanders the land and screws you out of your house and money. They are pacifists and master story-tellers, capable of swindling you out of your clothes. Their faces look blurred if not looked at directly, eye contact showing a face of trust, humbleness, and care.

Scraps - Literally universal garbage that has materialized over time, the Scraps are unwanted and rare. Due to looks and smell, Scraps are not very sociable, but they wield tremendous telekinetic power.

Each Major Inhabitant has several classifications that offer different abilities and help differentiate players when they pick the same Major Inhabitants.

And that's all for this post! If you have any questions, please ask below or email me at JernahnNerson@gmail.com. Next week we'll be talking about Powerin' Up! So, y'know, get ready for that ride.

Stay safe and pickle your cucumbers,
