So I've been doing some slightly more in-depth development. And hopefully soon I will have interface functions mastered enough to create the one I am drawing(I've been sketching outlooks for it on paper, Just something for me to look to accomplish for it. Might upload the sketch soon to show, no idea though yet). Other then that I've been focusing on both the Crusnik, and Vampire living and battling aspects more so this last week.

Examples for the Crusnik:
-Living

• 
  
• Crusniks can thrive as their human form, as their nano-machine crusnik form. However depending on their location it may pose a slight problem. I won't give an example to that, you will have to see for yourself.
• 
  
• Crusniks can still activate their nano-machines by not draining the blood of a vampire, but, their power will be decreased from their being and will not be able to achieve their maximum power for that percentage of nano-machines.
• 
  
• Crusniks will now be able to input the percentage obviously from 1 - 100, but it varies to their current limit. They won't be able to activate anymore nano-machines then their player can handle at that time.
• 
  

-Combat

• 
  
• Crusniks will be able to form the "blood scythe" now from any form past 40 percent. Until then they have to use their nails, and basic vampire-like instincts.
• 
  
• During a party that a Crusnik is involved in, if there is humans in the party that are Not players(NPC based, used for quests) and they see you activate your nano-machines you shall lose their respect, and they will in-turn fear you. You will be able to activate it if something happens to block their vision, or they get knocked out, or killed(Don't worry, every quest like this has something to do these).
• 
  
• A quick(And un-avoidable feature) feature is when a vampire is dead and a Crusnik activates their nano-machine, the blood splatter will go to your Crusnik as such a "Nourishment" allowing you to atain pull potential of your power.
• 
  

Examples for the Vampire:
-Living

• 
  
• Vampires will be automatically born in the Empire(Or known as "The Empire Of The Greater Race")
• 
  
• Vampires will have a special function in the game to tell when the human cities and surroundings(Ex:Albion, Barcelona, and Rome) are under nightfall(You will see a special output on your text that will say "Time Of Day: Night" and it will also give off the outputs for Dawn, Morning, Evening, and Night)
• 
  
• I gave each vampire blood viles. The blood viles are used in the game for nourishment purposes and can be bought in the Empire at local merchants. You start off with ten, enjoy.
• 
  

-Combat

• 
  
• I gave each vampire the built in knife for combat(As seen in Episodes 1, 2, and I believe also 3)
• 
  
• Attacking someone in the human region is Not the brightest idea to occur, however, there will be some "Night owls" wandering the streets at night, feel free to do with them as you wish providing you are night being watched by another.
• 
  
• Vampires can now drain the blood from a fallen prey of theirs, however this takes time and makes you a wide open target so I suggest being wise about it.
• 
  
• Going back to the knives segment, similar to be seen in the episode with "Gyula Kadar"(*The Star Of Sorrow) you can increase the number of hidden blades for combat, as your level increases.
• 
  
• Vampires now have another percentage indicator for their status-bar, "Blood Lust". This is done for combat in a certain time span. Increases it to 100% can send your player on a killing frenzy.
• 
  
• I added even more skills that can be learned through the Rosenkreuz Orden. I won't go into specifics, so if this is a job title and group you ever want to join in the game, have fun.
• 
  
  
  
  

  Further beyond that I have also been working on more quests in every major place in the game, some can be repeated after such and such time, and some can be done constantly, and then some only once(I.E: Group quests). During this I have acquired an interesting method for these quests, to make them easier to manage and create more for in shorter time(No, it's not Cntrl+C, and Cntrl+V that gets to repeating and boring).

  
  
  

  Still un-decided on sound effects, even though I must say Audiophiles is an amazing resource, and I will be trying to figure out how to help it become more active if at all I can.

  
  
  

  I am also certain anyone who read the manga/novels for Trinity Blood and enjoyed it would be happy to know that thanks to Rob I was able to get a hold of the English translations quickly, and I will be incorporating characters, and ideas from it either in the initial release, or the next few that follow. Cheers!

  
  
  Here is the finalized list of computer NPCs, and basic base needs as of now! Click here I do intend to add more but for right now, and for this version that is all that is needed. Also looking for a decent pixel artist willing to devote some time into creating the towns of all Albion, Barcelona, and Rome as well as the Empire, and a village set I can use to create anything in-between. You can casually find me going into Chatters, you can page me if I am online, or you can add Father_A.Nightroad@hotmail.com. Please note I only one people to add me for this purpose, if I receive any adds from anime members just asking for GM or anything of the sort I log every chat, and I will make them public. I am getting sick of that, I really am.
  
  
  Thanks for reading, I will try and keep in touch with anything further that comes to mind, as well as soon some testing dates(Mostly private, but I will throw in a couple public ones)

Well as of next Wednesday I will officially be 20(I never thought I would live to ten personally, but 20? Damn am I exceeding expectations!)
In doing so nothing about me really is changing. Still working, still playing computer games and watching anime, and still doing the same old stuff I love. Yay for another boring year of my life?

Although lately I've found myself on BYOND more and more times each day, even so that it is puzzling me. Hell, I am even picking up the Dream Maker language again and trying new things(Mostly involving Interfacing).

As far as BYOND goes I've basically been avoiding "Chao Chatterz" more so lately(I know what kind of remarks talking about this will get, oh well). I've been helping the game moderator wise here and there for over two years, and I've paid far more attention to it then it's "Creator"(Throwing that around loosely).
Now it seems I am becoming bored, and therefore slowly returning more to Icon Ultima, as well as spending more time in Chatters in and out.

As far as development on my personal anime game goes, Trinity Blood: Online? It's still going, I just have a way of getting all hyped out about one feature then spending so much time thinking about how to make it so much more advanced to live up to the hype, then I do make the actual feature. So odds are until it's nearing complete you won't hear to much about it. Still in need of a pixel artist for this, I have one of my friends keeping an eye out for me, I will be posting in the pixel art society, as well as joining the website I believe called "Pixel Joint"?

Oh well, that's it for now. Just wanted to keep in touch. You guys seem to me like distant relatives that I tend to leave in the dark to much. Heh.

This is my way of letting you know I haven't hung up the rack with BYOND just yet, and that I am around somewhat. Heh.

I seemed to enjoy myself rather well spending time with family whom I have not seen since I was probably as old as these Naruto owners(For those who can't see the age joke, I was referring to young teenagers).

Spending time with my family seemed to be something I wouldn't be doing but I didn't see the impulse taking over.
Anyways besides that I have begun playing more Xbox 360 games but that is interfering with any productivity on Trinity Blood: Online.(Son Danny apparently needs more time on the mobs anyways, so all is well).

Thought the funniest thing about my family seeing me would be how different I look, but they wanted to get me something(Apparently regardless of me even showing up invited?). Since they didn't know my "style" they got me gift cards to places.

Anyways mostly this blog post is obviously life relating, but I do have an option related question.



What would you like in a storyline quest for a fangame?

Basically I had a few ideas about how I was going to do it, and I know this will probably be getting a few comments about fangames are crap to but that's predictable, and tolerable.
So this question is generally what kind of storyline quests would be good for a fangame. Such as revolving souly on the anime, something altered like future reference and same game basis, or otherwise.(If you've seen the show this will be a good help to give comments with an example to)

Also, just for the sake of being in a good mood. Here's a post New Years good cheer for you, odds are I won't be around to post it, or care to because of all the blog posts that will be made about it probably as well.
