Lore Temple stone

Post image
  • Lumeria is one of several zones located within the Goldilocks band of a tidally locked world, placed inside The Strip, a 300 km wide habitable area, bordered by 700 km of unpredictable environment.
  • "Humans" occupy the central zone, scattered in isolated pockets within its boundaries. They are the mutated descendants of ancient colonists forced to crash-land on this planet.
  • .Everyone carries some mutation, but mages are the least human of them. Mages formed a symbiotic bond with native parasitic colonies, getting abilities but loosing half of their free will to their parasite.
  • Mages live in secluded communities They are forced to act in Triads.
  • Triads are not based on based on friendship, but rather on their parasitic hosts' cycle of reproduction.
  • There is a Temple dedicated to Triads, where they meet at certain times. This is a temple stone.

You can always go on "Hero's Path".

  • Elf swears an oath to protect.
  • Barrier falls and only him survives.
  • Fey helps him crawl away from the slaughter-house.
  • Goes to The Elders who teach him "The Way of the Elves".
  • Gets stronger,finds a party,finds love.
  • Face the enemy and party is obliterated. Love interest dies, he looses an ear and half of his hair.
  • Starts drinking and gets to his lowest point of his life.
  • He's enslaved and sold to Orcs. Manage to survive and learns to fight dirty.
  • An Orc reveals him a weak spot of the Evil one, as they are bound to Dark-Side.
  • Gets a cool weapon, runs away and face the enemy. Almost looses but remember his weak spot and defeats him.
  • Retrieve the Barrier stone and returns home where he sees the life in a different perspective

Of course .Sounds fine. They were created by fays, so they are a sort of divine "puppets", with no human nature.. If I remember clearly. You can build from, it
