prelude

All elements are in balance, light nor darkness reigns
Humans thrive, and their population grows rapid
But their high numbers supress other species
So the Gods sent evil down to the Planet
Humankind got greedy, and fought each other for posessions
Great wars erupted, forests were chopped down to build war machines
The plan of the Gods worked, human population subsided
But there was something the Gods had not foreseen
The Evil didn't let go of humankind, since they were a perfect host
The Gods succeeded in in reducing the evil by binding it
For centuries the world was in peace again
But seals can be broken
The Dark mage Nefouaa was one of the most skilled mages ever
But his mind couldn't handle the extreme power of his spells
The force of his most powerfull spell broke the bindings in his mind
Releasing the Evil kept there
He cursed anyone he saw, turning them into his henchmen
They built him a stronghold, and there he gathered an army
Monsters, dead, spirits and exiles united
Forming the largest and most powerfull army on the Planet
City by City fell for it's extreme force
Evil spreads over the world
On the fateful day the capitol of Corzaii is attacked
A Prophecy rises, which could change the tide of the world..

RSS and more Layout Changes -20091002-
The RSS feed has been extended, now all the previous News topics are also in it.
The dates in the News section now have a -yyyymmdd- format, the layout has changed and each item now has a topic!
Changing to frameless has been on a hold for some time, but it has now been continued.

Chainstory Frameless -20081231-
Once again, no story updates.. The writers've been really busy, so there's little time to continue.
In the meanwhile, I'm doing some maintenance on the site.
Thing is, for all this time it's been based on frames. And frames actually suck pretty badly, so I've started removing them from the site.
I won't make the change untill all's ready, or you could end up without navigation, but the progress can be followed here

-Zarlin-


RSS Feed Started -20081014-
Finally another update, however, it adds no content to the story.
I'm setting up an RSS feed for the site, so you can be notified of any changes to the site or story.
so here it is: RSS icon
Also, all the dates in this News section have been changed to the -yymmdd- format.

Celebration^^ -20080513-
I have an announcement to make, as of last weekend:

CHAINSTORY EXISTS FOR THREE YEARS!

We don't really have a way to celebrate though (no worries, we, the writers have partied quite well)
But, we'll try to write a bit more for the story, which has been going slowly lately.

Graphics, New Content -20080508-
Created a new navbar with some HTML coding i found out about. I'll be making more of these graphical buttons in the future.

EDIT: Yeah, I'm busy today, so here's a new update: I've put the chapter links in the main navbar, so i could remove the storybar, where the chapter links used to be. with this, I have also removed all links to the Dutch version of the story. If you'd still like to read it, contact me on the forum or by mail.
I also changed the chapter name graphs, the 'News', 'Prelude' and 'Proceed' headers/links.
I changed the site logo, seen above here. I'd like some opinions on what you think of this new logo.

Finally put some descriptions in the "World" section. We now have two Races listed, two Natural Phenomena, and I added part of Planet Tsurno's own description.
Also finally renewed zarlin's character pages, the other characters will follow later

Massive Update! -20080308-
Yes, the difference in date between this news topic and the previous is almost two years, that's due to an error I had to re-program the frontpage, and this was all the data I could retrieve.
I'll try to make this one covering everything that's lost.
Chapter Three is well underway, and after quite a while we've resumed writing. We will no longer be sticking to the writing order (Z-M-S-I) we had before, any of us will write whenever we feel like it. Hopefully this way we'll be able to give updates more frequently.
There will be no more updates for the dutch version of the story, as it's barely being read. We stopped working on the RPG, since it had become too complex to still be a tabletop, and it actually wasn't fun to play anymore. Instead, we started building and describing the world Chainstory takes place in. Any suggestions and ideas are welcome, they can be posted in the forum, or mailed to me.
I've added some graphics on the Story page, for the chapter names and numbers. The title image above is now a link to the first chapter.
And, as you may have seen, when you hover your mouse cursor over certain links or texts, an information box will appear. I will try to make more of these, as a sort of help function on the site. Try it with this sentence;)
In the english version of the story, every Story Piece now has a number, used to refer to a certain piece. The number shows when hovering your mouse over the text.

Sidestories, Combo System -20060735-
been a while since I updated this news part, I was quite busy.
the third chapter has started, but the translations are a bit behind. The English translations will hopefully come soon.
The site intro, above this news part, has changed into a hopefully more exciting text, iso the sucky we had before. Post your opinion on the Forum please.
Some stories aside the main Chainstory have started, these 'Sidestories' can be read soon on this site.
The Combo system is still under development, but is definetely getting better.
The Story chapters have names now, iso just numbers.
The calculator program for CSRPG will be available as soon as I find a good PHP supporting server.

Forum, Layout Changes, 3rd Chapter Started -20060427-
Okay, I haven't updated this in a while, so it'll become quite a list.
I've made a Forum for Chainstory, anyone who wants can register.
The layout has been changed as well, and I added a navigation bar.
The Story has almost completely been translated to English.
Soon the third chapter will be started with, and maybe there will be other stories as well, but we're not sure.. more can be read about this on the Forum.

1st Chapter finished, Welcome Sylvaron! -20060222-
The first chapter of chainstory is finished, and a new member will start the new one.
We welcome SYLVARON to the story, Sylvaron was already in the RPG, but has not been in the story before.
I have also made some 'mail' links here and there, if you have comments or you don't get something, don't hestitate to ask.
The site should now be visible to Mozilla and Fire Fox users, I found out that my HTML-codings were sucky.

-Zarlin-


Site Translation -20060212-
I have started the long process of translating the whole site into two different languages....

-Zarlin-


Links, Combosys and Translations -20060211-
I put all the links together under: "Links" check it, because I also added some links to it. The new combo system will be a radical change in the battle system, so we will first try to make it perfect before I put it on the site.
I am also thinking about making this site in English and Dutch.

-Zarlin-


Link and Message Bar -20060120-
I added a link and made a message bar.

-Zarlin-
