•Story
A mal-intentioned shaman is going from town to town selling his service of resurrection that will bring people back the dead. There has always been rumors that this has been possible, but what is not well-known is that if the resurrection is performed incorrectly, the spirit returns insane with rage and turns the body into a demon. And no one knows why the spirit returns in this way, but a pair of agents from the Ministry of Souls has been dispatched to the countryside to put an end to shaman's misdeeds...
•Gameplay Concepts
-Challenging RTC that requires the active use of each character's abilites.
-Customizable Character Stats: At each level you decide if you want to increase mana, hit points, or combat mastery.
-Unique Armor System: Wearable armor is represented by shield points (on Protoss units). There are also armors which buff your mana, hit point stats and there may be armors that give the wearer unique abilities.
-Meaningful Side Quests: There will be optional sidequests that will reward your characters by unlocking abilities on the ability tree, or directly upgrading your character's unit, e.g. Zergling speed, or additional minerals to spend at the forge.
-More to be added here...
•Screenshots
-Jirit morphing into a Druthwood Imp.
•Comments
1/17 - I had originally started a different thread about this under a different game name, but then real life interrupted me working on the map. I will post screenshots when I can figure out why I can't open .pcx files.
1/17 - I have quickly thrown up a screenshot, thanks to Tdnfthe1!
I will post a demo in a week or two.

Sounds pretty interesting... I have a two questions:
1. How many players will there be?
2. How many characters/classes will there be?
I think I'll be watching this one, I'm always looking for a good new RPG to play.

That looks neat. I have a question though, will you be the shaman or the people hunting the shaman? I couldn't quite tell, although I am guessing you are hunting the shaman.

There will be 3 players and they will be set characters, and pretty much all 3 will be necessary to beat the game. I think there will be some character specific puzzles, like Jirit having to use his Imp form to complete some task in a time limit, or going through some small area the other chars can't reach.
Yes, you start out looking for the shaman, but like any good story there are twists
