Hi all, welcome back to another release - this time a level 9 oneshot with a 'build-your-own-boss' mechanic and one that took OVER 30-40 HOURS TOTAL! In all seriousness, I had great fun making it!
Now before we get into it - I wanted to highlight my key collaborator in this work - Megan Gillett, an AMAZING British composer that CUSTOM made the EPIC soundtracks for this oneshot! While she specialises in classical Celtic-influenced pieces, I am trying to drag her into making fantasy pieces and I need YOU to help me with that!
Check out her work here, give her a follow, and tell her to get on the dark side: https://linktr.ee/megangillett
And now for the oneshot itself!
In the heart of Totera, the University of Kitoro stands. It is primarily a mage academy focused on the supernatural, with obscure magical practices and absurd ideologies - a squishy spellcaster in melee, whoever heard of these radical ideas?!
However, the the origins of the University lay outside the city's walls, with the first professors banished for what they claimed to be 'progressive ideas', which included fighting to the death, using undead rather than than bound sorcerous servants to clean the halls, and employ non-magical professors into magically-inclined positions.
In fact, these original 'ruins' still stand 300 years later, laying perfectly abandoned after all students and staff were forced to evacuate after one of the professors, a half-elf by the name Azkareth, supposedly went crazy, sacrificing his lover, also a colleague, to a powerful demon and letting it loose on the grounds of the University's old church, Da'Sabar. Weirdly, Da'Sabar remains intact and perfectly preserved, as if nothing had ever happened, while other buildings have turned to ruin.
That is, until recently. The bells of Da'Sabar ring once again - calling out, perhaps welcoming Azkareth's return.
Let me know if you like it and any feedback you're willing to provide is greatly appreciated!
Thanks so much!~Snowy
