<h2>MAGIC AND TECHNOLOGY</h2>
|
||
<p>
|
||
In every Fabula Ultima world, science and magic represent two different ways
|
||
of studying and manipulating reality: one concerns itself with the tangible
|
||
nature of matter, the other with the souls that dwell within it — two sides of
|
||
the same coin. Miraculous machinery might be hidden beneath the ruins of an
|
||
ancient civilization, and even the most powerful wizards will often make use
|
||
of vehicles and airships. Many of these worlds also feature an unusual
|
||
discipline that combines magic and technology into magitech: metal soldiers
|
||
animated by the souls of the fallen, bombs that can unleash elemental mayhem,
|
||
and flying machines fueled by wind spirits are only a few examples of what can
|
||
be created by this hybrid craft.
|
||

|
||
<h2>HEROES OF MANY SIZES AND SHAPES</h2>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Fabula Ultima’s protagonists are full-fledged heroes, extraordinary
|
||
individuals that possess unique abilities and whose actions will shape the
|
||
fate of the world. While some may not be noble paladins or virtuous paragons
|
||
of justice, even the thieves and dark knights among them have a fundamentally
|
||
good nature and can be trusted to do the right thing when the situation gets
|
||
desperate. In line with the video game genre Fabula Ultima draws inspiration
|
||
from, our heroes do not follow any rule of realism: be they children with
|
||
incredible magical powers or elderly warriors able to single-handedly
|
||
challenge an entire army, all that matters is their strength of spirit.
|

||
<h2>IT'S ALL ABOUT THE HEROES</h2>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Any relevant event in a game of Fabula Ultima is tied to the heroes, either
|
||
directly or indirectly. Dramatic plot twists shall happen when the
|
||
protagonists are present on the scene, and the great powers (and evils) of the
|
||
world shall pay them special attention. Following the same logic, the heroes’
|
||
determination will allow them to achieve the impossible, such as defeating an
|
||
empire or sealing away a powerful deity.
|
||

|
||
<h2>MYSTERY, DISCOVERY, AND GROWTH</h2>
|
||
<p>
|
||
This game is built upon discovery: of ancient mysteries and forgotten powers,
|
||
yes, but most of all, of the heroes themselves, of their feelings, and of what
|
||
they are willing to do in order to fight against darkness. Fabula Ultima’s
|
||
protagonists are complex and sometimes tragic figures, and their journey will
|
||
change them forever.
