[WIP]Return Of Shadows - Chapter II

Post » Tue May 03, 2011 11:35 am

"The cherubic, holy and righteous children of Tamriel have taken from me much of value. This will be the last welt my pride will suffer. My animosity has reached it's peak and all will know the fear of it. There will be no clemency or end to the pain I will inflict upon this plane. My devout followers, it is now I order you to strike, to tear and to destory the leadership of Tamriel. Burn, sting, and rip all who shine brightly upon our night. Discharge the wanton cruelty of your storm to this land. In shadows you will come forth, and before shadows all light will fall. Through you my knight, we will wrought much melancholy, sorrow and anguish until all flee or bow beneath us."


I am looking for Recruits for the RoS Chapter II Team!.

RoS - Chapter I, focused on creating the atmosphere for Return Of Shadows. You were introduced to the plot, the guilds and the rivals amidst such guilds. You were shown may different types of heartlessness. Gifted with many of the powers Namira has to bestow upon you and drawn into the story of Namira and her Shadowknights. You were also left hurt and wanting revenge, so was Namira...

RoS Chapter II will focus on Namira's wraith sweeping the lands of Tamriel. No longer will she limit her powers or abilities. It is in this chapter that the player must hunt down and destroy all those who pose power on the land of Tamriel through convoluted assassinations, spasmodic battles, furious duels and flagrant acts of cruelty.

I have become a general modder, though my talent seems to lie in storyline creation, plot, characters, quest and scripting.

I am looking for all who are willing to dedicate themselves to the RoS project for what may be awhile with the goal of creating one of the best Guild/Quest mods ever and bringing Oblivion the much needed evil quest it needs.

All experience levels are welcome and all talents are desirable.

If you wish to join the team and believe you can contribute much to this project, this Mod. Please post here along with the skills you have and the parts of the mod you believe your talents would be best focused into.

RoS Chapter I took awhile due to the fact that the originating modders were all new to CS and life interrupted us many times. That and focus on story and characters was a much longer process than simply making the quest. I believe that with a driven and dedicated team, RoS Chapter II will take much less time as it's focus is much more upon Assassinations and Battles than the aforementioned.

(RoS is a mod that adds just about every aspect you can to the game, so please feel free to post even if you don't think your skills will suit this mod, you may be surprised.

HELP NEEDED!!!!

The way I see it, if we get a great team working together, the mod will be so much more bad ass as its the result of the work of many dedicated modders and the opinions and desire of many players. Which is why I've had questionnaires sent out to those who played ROS I.

I want chapter two to include:


More spells, potions, orbs and scrolls. (so we can use modders who are good at creating spells/effects)

Many stealth missions/assassinations (so modders who have done traps, special devices, patrol patterns, etc)

A focus on the good side of the mod (and killing them) so those who have done characters/companions/Ai scripting.

Boss Battles (so really complicated scripted fights :P )

The Dark Sisterhood (female thieves guild that WILL kill and does work in teams)

Dungeons and Caves.

And a few mini-quest!

I have some self-projects experience with using the CS for morrowind, I'm a huge fan of that and oblivion, I'm enjoying Return of Shadows and I'm pretty into creative writing. Oh, and a grammar nazi. :)
Could I be of any help? Even if it's just beta-ing scripts, I've always wanted to make a mod and I'm pretty good at learning.

Yes Space Boy, we will warmly welcome you to our team :) . Again I stress that when Me, Cenkai and Gamerdude begun, we were all Newbs to the CS (who were told we would never be able to release such a mod). So we will not rate you by your skill level, as it doesn't show your ability to learn or your dedication and determination to create.

Id be willing to help.

I was always pretty good at editing mods when they had issues and problems, or if they bored me.
Im not a scripter, but I have experience in CS with making Exteriors and Interiors, and massive edits like I said.

Hello, I was wondering if you would like a voice actor for your team. I have 3 years of theater experience and I'm currently doing a acting job for a fan-made Kingdom Hearts series. Here is an example of this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47aSSDM9Fms

I also have a bit of experience with the way Oblivion works as a whole along with Construction Kit experience.

If you accept or have any questions please contact me via PM. Thank you

Well I am in the business of pushing people to discover their limits when it comes to these projects. If you really wish to join the RoSII team, Know that even if you are given a small task ... and by terms of what we will call "small" it will be quiet challenging. RoS II is about the siege of Tamriel itself. To do so we will have to "rebuild" towns, yes, towns.... to "fix" castles.
An example of what I would assign you, based on what you have told me... is this: "The Haven hates the player. Mirage feels deeply betrayed and will no longer await the player's death. As is such You are ordered to join Ethin, the assholistic Shadowknight on a two men charge to storm Castle Bravil and slay the daughter of the duke." I want you to copy bravils castle, expand upon it till it really is a hall worthy of calling a castle, with guards and all. To start by creating a path in which the player can enter through the castle window, then once in a servants quarters, force the servant to help the knight, on threat of death of her child get into the main halls of the castle. Once in, kill servant, skillfully (keyword here) move throughout the castle past patrolling guards unseen, finally arriving at the court hall where the count's daughter is playing. From here Ethin would appear, having taken a different route, the player is to kill the girl, while Eithin is to lead the guards away.

Would you be willing to take such a task of creating an interior capable of all that?

I accept your offer. The main male character I believe would need the most VA work would be Aigeus.

Though I can't really use the cs as I am just experimenting with it, I could suggest that you could make everyone who u talk to not say "stay away from me you monster" and exit the dialogue. This is because in the first place, aren't the shadowknights supposed to be extremely stealthy? Since this is the case how would people know who are shadowknights in the first place.

Hey, I wununt no newbie! lol

Really, I exist, I haven't been AWOL for too long :D Anyway, I do it all. Quests, scripts (for quests), interior design (yes kids, doing a wee bit of work on the haven is on the list), and I was working on some cool little things like a training room and stuff like that. So uh, yeah, I'm here and I am one of the lead and original modders of ROS and will be second in command. If anyone wants to take my place you must fight me to the death in the arena!

'Tis all,

I may be new to modding, but i can create new weapons, and armor by combining them in nifSkope, idk how effective that is, but i'm in (kdusk270@gmail.com) if you accept, i will give my honest opinion, and anything in the way of enchantments, spells, some scripting, and, a little bit of creative thinking is yours for abuse in making this mod possible

Hey,
If you want voice acting then I am your man! I think voices would add a lot to this mod (not just size).
So let me know :)

Hi. I just finished the chapter one and wanna know if some help can always be useful.

Skills... Skills... In my first time I was a translator (... And begin by "Malevolent"... So I'm crazy too, it's a skill isn't it?).
After that I became able to do what I translated, so story driven mod with a lot of dialogs.
I tested some mods too (More than translated...) so I'm quite good for that, I can find a lot of things pretty easily (bugs and things like that...).
After all that I decided to be modder... So ... I begin to do some mods... (I've ... Hmm... 6 or maybe 8 projects... No one finished...)
I'm confident with the Construction Set... I didn't have many things to learn (maybe nothing to learn?). But there is a very bad point: I'm french, so my english is far to be perfect.

I'm pretty busy so generally I cannot do bigs things rapidly... So if you want I can bring some help (for everything, except 3D, I tried a little but... I'm not good for that), just ask for things and I normally can do it.
My specialties are scripting and story-driven quests/dialogs. I work on some tests and translations for now so, if you've time I'm all your for work.

I'm still working on just the first one, but something that really caught my attention was the spelling and grammar errors and the like. I mean, I know it's little things, but I'm an English major so things like typos kinda bugged me. XD I could potentially offer my services as a proofreader or something to help out the writers of the mod, if needed. I know sometimes even I miss mistakes in my own writing the first time through, and someone else helping to read over and such could be a useful tool. ...Although I also realize y'all might not be too fond on having perfect spelling and grammar in the mod. (And I understand I'm a nobody from these forums, but I saw the link to here when I got the first Return of Shadows mod that I'm still working on despite Oblivion being crash-happy. I love writing, and while I may not be able to actually help with the storyline of the mod since you've plenty enough people volunteering for that, I can at least proofread.).

'course, if you decline I'm cool with that. XD It just popped in my mind after playing into RoS chapter I.
