Grand Opening!!!

By -


Introducing The New Races of Epimetheus page! As the needs of the blog have grown so too has our approach to getting the necessary content out there for others to see. In an attempt to make elements of this project more manageable we have expanded our blogs scope.

This Grand opening comes with the completion of new art content for the Centaur. This interesting race is renowned for their fearsome cavalry as well as their equine parts. While it is possible to mount a Centaur you had better have their permission or things could get ugly. So keep your manners as sharp as your reflexes and check the latest task completed: "Create artwork for Centaur".

And as always please feel free to send us your feedback or share with us any interest you might have in the project. Team Epimetheus is always looking to recruit aspiring: game developers, artists, and programmers. There are even mechanical elements that have no need for artistic or programming skill. You can find a list of contact information on the about us page and a variety of ways in which YOU can help make this game come alive by going to the Contribute page.

Gnomes

Mythologically speaking Gnomes are no more than 15 centimeters tall. That is less than 6 inches! For the purpose of this game, we are going to make these little guys and gals the size of your common ceramic, garden Gnomes: 2 feet. There is an amazing publication on the lore behind Gnomes written by Wil Nuygen. It contains hundreds of wonderful illustrations by an artist named Rien Poortvliet and has served as the fundamental source of our knowledge on Gnomes. Team Epimetheus tips their collective hats to the time and effort spent in collecting this data. For the purpose of this game, we decided to make Gnomes a mischievous race with an unmatched sense of smell. Not only do they have a natural connection with wildlife, but they are also the games natural choice for potion creation. Gnomes are versatile people and can be found throughout all of Epimetheus, but they hail from the nation of Linkkert . Share with us your take on Gnomes and what you would like to see done with them for...

Seraphim and Nephilim

In the World of Epimetheus, there are two biblical races: the Seraphim and the Nephilim. There is only a brief mention of them in the Bible, but it is believed that the Book of Giants, which was removed when the original canon was written, goes into greater detail about these two beings. But let us share with you what we have learned and what direction we went in. The Seraphim are fallen angels who were cast out of heaven for siding with Lucifer during a coup. As the lore goes, Lucifer, being the most magnificent of all of God's creations, sought to assume the throne of Heaven by overthrowing his creator. There is some debate about the motivation of this move. Some say that Lucifer refused to bow down to mankind as we were created to be higher than the angels themselves leading to division among the celestial heavens. Others claim that Lucifer argued on behalf of mankind's souls which were destined to wander aimlessly throughout time in the afterlife. As you can see one sid...

From Giant To...Well Not So Big

Big-Med-Small At long last, we can celebrate the completion of the remastering of every race on Aborlon! If you would like to see the full to-scale image you can find it in this lair. It is the background image of this lair's home page. On my PC I need zoom out to 67% to see the full image, try it on your PC and let us know what magnification you can see the whole image on. If you are using a phone...well that is just way too much imagination for your hand-held device. We have big races and small races, colorful and fuzzy races, flying and galloping races. I mean there is already such an abundance of choices that some people might just say we are getting a little carried away. But we have unleashed the hounds of creativity, and this is only the beginning! To get you up to speed with the accomplishments of this summer and a bit of size perspective we have included a to-scale image of our largest, mid-sized and compact-sized avatars. This should give you a rough idea of what...
