General

Ideas for new content: The Lost Regime

I was thinking about an idea for the maple designer event, and had a neat content idea, but then i read the rules and almost killed myself. Anyways here's my idea.

The Lost Regime

A long time ago, before even the Black Mage walked the Maple World, there was a peaceful Maple World. A very brave and strategic general in the Maple Army sensed a danger looming in far-off lands, so he and his army left the known Maple World to defeat this evil. Many years passed and he was soon forgotten, but signs are beginning to appear in the Maple World, and they aren\'t friendly.

In present-day Maple World, the world is in chaos after what the Black Mage had done to the world. Right about now, the general of the Maple Army returns on a floating island, and he sees how corrupt the home he left was. He observes the world from afar to determine who would be the one behind the corruption. The Black Mage, sensing a powerful force, sends some spies to spy on the general. The spies are seen by some Cygnus Knghts who had gone to investigate this new area, and soon the rest of the heroes are getting involved in an all-out war to the end. Eventually the Explorers, Heroes, and Cygnus Knights defeat the general, and the general yells out something like \"Forgive me, for I have failed to protect the Maple World like I was supposed to.\" At this, everyone is confused, and even Grendel is intrigued by this message, so Grendel goes to research it, and sure enough, he finds an old volume talking about this legendary general. At this, everyone is sad, and angered at letting the Black Mage claim another victory. The battle was not in vain though. The old general left behind his armor and weapons so that the explorers may use them to do what the general had failed to do. Also, some of the general\'s subordinates realise what is going on, and agree to help the explorers as best as they can. They teach the explorers their skills, and the explorers brace themselves for the battle ahead, being more confident thanks to their new powers, and angered by the death of a legendary general.

For those too lazy to read it all: hero leaves to fight, comes back and goes berzerk. Black Mage tricks explorers to kill hero. Explorers mad at it and learn skills from hero\'s friends. End.

Please note that these skills are from very old times, so they would be primitive compared to the skills of now, but may actually be stronger. That or just make new classes to honor the general\'s army.

Second note: the area would probably be 150+ since these guys should be VERY tough, and the armor/weapons could be 130-140+ and tradeable. I think the skills should be for 70+, unless it could be a new class. Then we just drop the idea of skills.
