Project - One Niurn - Races and Colours

 Hello. C J here. I’ve just uploaded an updated version of Legend – Quantum to the free books page. Go check it out. It details the Legend – Quantum setting in vastly greater detail now and has some of the new mechanics for playing in this zero-death setting and era. Now I’m back to planning Project: One Niurn for now. Project: One Niurn has a ton of ideas I can use and reuse from the original game line. We have all of the items, weapons, enchanted weapons, armour and species to name a few.

I want this to be faithful to the original game so I’m not adding in any species to this region of the setting that aren’t based on the originals. The originals, if I’m remembering correctly, are divided into humans, the Imperials, Nords and Redguard, the elves, the Wood Elves, Dark Elves and High Elves, and the more animal like races, the cat like Kajit, reptilian Argonain and Orcs. I might be getting this list or the spellings a bit off but that’s what I remember from the games.

Each one has a home province and I need to detail all of them as a parody with better landscapes and more culture. I’m pairing these one each with species of draconains from my setting. Orcs are generic Green Dragons. Kajit are Cat Dragons. High Elves are Gold Dragons. Dark Elves are Grey Dragons. That’s the list so far. Also the original look of the game had horns on most of the armour so I’m going to do large horns on all of these species as an aesthetic. This will have mechanics as well in the RPG.

I’ve also pulled a colour palette out of the game. We’re working with pale golds, pale copper, greens and silver-white. This is the colours the original game and the entire original series were in including the armour and characters. This colour scheme will be the basis of the new draconian characters and I’m trying to keep everything including the skies in this colour range. It should look wintery and also unique.

Announcing Legend - Quantum

 Hello. C J here. I'm announcing today the official tabletop RPG companion to my upcoming video game line Quantum Dragon. The tabletop RPG companion is named Legend - Quantum. I finally get to write something in the Legend series again. I am very happy about this. The Legend series other than this one is done and will be out once its proofread, which may be a while from now. Reliably this series is the best work I've ever done on anything. I'm planning on writing setting and character sourcebooks for the whole game line as well but for now I'm working on the core book for the video game crossover. There's a free in-development copy in the Downloads page now. Have fun. C J Mcpherson

Minecraft Experiments - Steampunk Part One

 Hello. C J here. It's time for more Minecraft. This time we have some steampunk themed buildings. I'm doing these mostly as an experiment and they aren't in the part of the Astral I usually build, Ascala. Ascala needs more planning so I'm doing generic Astral themes instead of a specific nation this time. Remember that lighthouse form earlier? Well we're going in its direction this time. But first a long minecart ride from the underground station. And here we are in Port Stone. You'll notice the style of building is different. That's because it's a different part of the setting were building here. Here on the surface we have a boat waiting for us. We have a long voyage ahead of us. They've implemented some beautiful coral reefs in one of the previous updates. Believe it or not I've been playing Minecraft since before there were horses in it. Minecraft is still good. And here we are, at the new steampunk build site in the middle of an ocean. We h...

My New Favourite Video Game Part Two

 Hello. C J here. I’m just going to continue discussing the video games I’m playing for a while. I’m planning out another batch of Minecraft builds while I play Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Red Rescue Team. It’s kind of weird that these are job activities for me but they are. The Minecraft builds need to be done so I can learn some more things about level design. The Pokemon game is what I’m doing for fun. At least it was. Pokemon make great inspiration for the work I do and the stories I write. I’m now having to make more time for it. Most of the characters in my setting are inspired by the Pokemon games. Our main characters Ivy, Blue, William and Benjamin are all based on some of the Pokemon in the first three generations. Ivy is specifically a fictitious all black Pokemon. Blue is an all blue togepi, William is a persian and Benjamin is a tauros without the horns. I’m going to get back to drawing humanoid versions of the first three generations eventually. These to my knowledge count...
