Subject: Summoners


I had an idea last night... I was surfing the web and
found Pokethulhu, a combination of Pokemon and Call of
Cthulhu. I personaly despise Pokemon, but I enjoy the
concept behind it... you find some critter, you
capture it, train it, and fight with it....

So my goal was to make a much more grown up game based
on that concept. My game idea is called Summoners. In
Summoners the main character type is, well, Summoners.
A Summoner is a person who holds power over spirits.
They will go to places like the forest or mountains
(or perhaps a city, depending on tastes) and enter the
astral plane. While in the astral plane the world is a
mirror of the real world, but a little warped and
exagerated, usually in a dark way. Once in the astral
plane the Summoner will encounter free spirits or
demons that may want to play with him or attack him,
or other such things. The Summoner can then fight the
spirit and try to bring it under his control. Once the
spirit is under the Summoner's control he can bind it
to a focus, like a crystal. Then the Summoner leaves
the real world and can summon the spirit from the
focus and make it manifest in physical form.... he
would the nfight other Summoners with the goal of
gathering ancient artifacts. These ancient artifacts
would be things like scrolls that would allow a
summoner to cast a spell that would help him when
fighting certain spirits, or enchanted items that do
other similar things.

Any ideas or comments?

I'm glad you said that, because I was going to ask why you hadn't submit it yet.
