Introduction
This is yet another one of my attempts at an LP. Originally I was thinking of doing a Pokemon Yellow or Moemon or *insert some other GBA/GBC Pokemon game here* LP. However, because there are so many amazing series out there that aren't well known due to the fact that they aren't advertised everywhere and are only available as imports or can only be found at gaming stores, I decided to do an LP of one of those instead.So I chose the Summon Night series. Long story short, your character has a summon creature assist them in battle and throughout the story. You only have one summon creature though, so it isn't like Final Fantasy where you can summon a bajillion different creatures. Swordcraft Story is also shorter storyline-wise compared to Swordcraft Story 2, and Twin Age is for the DS so I didn't feel like doing that.
Prologue
So much dialogue in so little time.
Spoiler:
Just like Pokemon, you can choose which gender to play as!
So, I'll play as a boy!
...Not.
We start off with an unknown voice. Is it a ghost?
What voice I'm trying to sleep.
That voice better not have been calling me an A-cup :(
Nonono, not "make up", but "may cup". I guess it's a cup you only use in May or something.
NO NOW LET ME SLEEP DAMMIT.
YOU HAVE NO AUTHORITY OVER ME UNKNOWN VOICE.
...OK maybe you do have authority over me. But I still won't wear makeup :(
Didn't I already tell you I was?
Sleep > ceremony. Now leave me alone.
Apparently ceremonies aren't as important where she comes from.
Raise your hand if you're like this. *raises hand*
Geez you have good hearing woman.
I don't know. I can't see it from my bed.
Whatever it is, it better shut her up.
From lying in bed to standing up in one second. Amazing.
This item is much more important than my mother's well-being, so I picked it up first.
How can she see her mom from that position? /good old GBA graphics
HI :D
You screamed. How can you not remember :|
It must've been Amariss's evil twin, then.
Geez, you had be worried there. Knock next time.
In which my character tries to one-up mom's attempt at scaring the other.
Hey, so she failed the landing. Cut her some slack.
It looks fine to me.
It's just a scratch, really.
Sure. Just give me a year or so.
First she forgets about a ceremony, now she forgets where the stairs are. Talk about your amnesiac protagonist.
Mama Obvious here to save the day!
"...I can't help it if I'm an amnesiac!"
I'm tired. And forgetful. Combine the two and you have a recipe for disaster.
Hey, you made ME worry about YOU.
No matter what you say I'm still calling you an amnesiac.
FINALLY I get to name my character!
Does she look like she's kidding to you?
What happened to telling her where they are?
Man, she's one to give up easily.
Default name for the girl. Where the hell do these people come up with these names?
My name for her. Uncreative but somewhat fitting considering the title of the game.
A confirmation screen. Something the older Pokemon games lacked.
Hey, not all amnesiacs forget their own name, you know.
Uh-oh, this one may be a bit trickier.
Ah, the overused overprotective parent type.
This job to be explained shortly.
This is not the explanation.
You and at least five others. I think.
NOW for the explanation.
Simple and sweet. Just how I like it.
No; now tell me the significance of 42!
Hint: Look right below her portrait. Easy as that!
What kind of a name is Amariss anyways? At least it's better than "Pratty".
OH SHI--
Overprotective AND mean. Bad parent much?
Good. Now let me go to this ceremony already.
Helloooooo, what about the ceremony?
...Did she just call me fat?
You're not too fit yourself, mother.
No. What?
Hey, you're supposed to stick to the line under the last pic!
Her memory returns when she's under stress.
Despite the name, she'll be wielding weapons OTHER than swords in combat.
Spoiler: It is a dream.
Dream big kid.
Sure you will. Everyone else is late too.
Reminds me of Jackie Chan's grandpa in the animated series. "ONE MORE THING!"
Sorry, but can you give it to me later? I kind of have to go now...
It belonged to her great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandma.
Correction: It belonged to his great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandpa.
Corrected Correction: It belonged to him.
That doesn't explain why it looks so old.
And here we have the typical "one or both parents are dead" spiel.
She can't believe how many RPGs have the trait mentioned above.
Are you trying to say he committed suicide?
Call me daddy, not mother.
That's what I like to hear!
And yet it never seems to work later on.
Translation: I'll throw it out as soon as I leave this building.
What's "it"? Clarify, woman.
I'm afraid to count on an amnesiac, though D:
Miss Obvious. This thing isn't even needed until later, unless you wanna go see all the houses in town first.
Yup, there are aside speeches every now and then.
Which means you haven't been to the second floor of the town? That's a shame.
...You mean you haven't even PASSED it when traveling to the other side? Geez you've led an isolated life.
This here's the Silver Guild, where the character works. Got it memorized?
Don't be afraid! It's just a tall, ominous-looking tower!
Another unknown voice! Maybe this tower is haunted?
...Oh, it's just her master, whose name was not mentioned until now.
Time to choose the dialogue! Of course, I continued with the amnesiac gimmick.
That's my little amnesiac <3
With a dialect and appearance like that, he's right.
Stress triggers memory. Interesting concept.
So THAT'S what that pink thing at the bottom of the steps was!
Hey, mom wouldn't stop talking her head off. And apparently you won't, either.
Or DOES she? *cue ominous music*
Dad's cooler.
And he's her role model, too!
Hey, buddy. You won't win a girl's heart my insulting her.
You tell him, Rydia!
That's the worst punishment he could receive!
Because you're sexist :|
Burrrrrrrrrrrrn.
From tough guy to crybaby. What a master.
Amnesiac AND blunt. I like this chick.
There, there. There are other fish in the sea.
From tough guy to crybaby to upbeat. He has some interesting mood swings.
Don't worry, she'll forget.
Why is everyone so mean to her? ;;
You'll always be first-class to me!
You sure about that?
Spoiler: ...OK I won't spoil it for you just yet. Except I probably already did.
Before we enter the tower, this is what the shop looks like in the game. Sells recovery items, strength/defense/agility-enhancing equipment (you can only equip one of those), and sometimes materials to make weapons out of!
Forgot to screenshot it this time, but you can only save at these blue save sword thingies. You can also Suspend your game too, but I'm not doing that. Anyways, the files here were ones I started a while ago.
Overwriting the second file because I fail in it.
And now I'm done with the Prologue! So, without further ado...
WHO SHOULD BE MY SUMMON CREATURE?
There are four summon creatures to choose from. Each specializes in one of the four elements in-game (there later becomes five, but for now there's four). They are as follows:
Zantek, a mecha who specializes in thunder spells. It speaks in nothing but random characters but your character can still understand it anyways.
Rasho, an oni ("ogre", "demon", you decide the translation) who specializes in fire spells. He's a bit of a punk but is kinder towards your mother.
Sugarette/Sugar, a fairy-like creature who specializes in water spells. She wants to marry the character despite your character's gender.
Kutty, a beast type creature who specializes in wind spells. He's like a Pokemon in a way that he only says his name.
A little while later, I'll be asked some questions that'll ultimately decide who my summon creature will be. I already know how to answer each question to get all four, and rather than answer honestly, I'll be answering based on which summon creature was most popular. If no one makes any suggestions, though, then I probably will end up answering honestly ><; Anyways, I hope y'all like what I have so far and will follow me to see what happens next!
