main bad guy - A King who once used machines to fight off the wild life. Now he uses them to destroy cities and kill people.

Heros - There are two, a paladin, and a dark knight. They possess powers to teleport through either light or darkness. they got thier own set of spells unlike how paladin would take on the low level white mage spells.

Okay now the story is pretty much on how a manipulative King fools a world into possible defeat. Brave friends unite to bring the evil lord down. These people take on the jobs of a Paladin, White mage, Black mage, Warrior, magic swordsmen, blue mage (dragoon), gambler, Ninja, and a gunsmen. The second team known in the game is Dark nemisis of the actural heros. These take the jobs of Dark knight, Samuri, Bard, Red mage, summoner, dancer, monk, and thief. There are additonal characters you can gain late in the story. These are an Alchmist, Beastmaster, and Oracle. I'm sure I can add more jobs to the characters using my special system on secondary jobs.

Slow down on the characters before the plot is even halfway thought out. You need to figure if certain characters can be fit in and make sense.

Ummmm ... hasn't this already been done as FFIV?

Sounds like a little FFV is mixed in there too. Also sounds like it would be a VERY VERY long story! Keep it to less than 7 main characters!

Yeah I got my first draft done so the story is thought out. I agree that there are too many characters so I put two sides of the story. One is a paladin and the other is a dark knight. SO pretty much evening out the two sides in spells and skills is what I need to do.

You sound like you're talking about variables in an equation. You also sound like you're trying to make a game. It doesn't have to be symmetrical. You can have three good guys and nine bad guys. Its all how you develop the story that matters as long as it's interesting and makes sense

This is a very origional story.

Sounds a little corny. A dark Knight and Paladin. Some evil king who destroys the world.

Yeah it might not be the best but I think with time I'll be able to make it all an original. Well anyways I got a thread with a little bit of the story. Its The story of two planets
