[QUOTE="MeepoTheMighty, post: 1072439, member: 3216"] [i]Camera pans across a majestic cityscape dominated by an enormous Romanesque palace compound. Cut to wide shot of thousands of troops in formation. Cue "Movie Trailer Guy"[/i] In a world where the law of God is enforced with an iron fist... [i]Cut to map of the continent with dark red clearly indicating the extent of the empire's control. Cut to close up of a woman's feet. A small flame appears beneath her, and the camera pans out to show her tied to a stake as the flames begin to lick at her toes. [/i] Where the dogma is strict....and the penalty for heresy even stricter... [i]Cut to a semicircle of blue-robed mages blasting a child with eldritch energy as he tries to run away. Cut to the interior view of a door, which is thrown open to reveal two legionairres flanking a red-robed man, who calls fire from the sky to smite a group of peasants cowering in prayer. [/i] Where the last followers of false gods and vile demons have been wiped out like a plague.... [i]Cut to a man in black armor, mounted on a jet black steed. As he waves a flaming sword in the air, the music takes on a more somber tone. He swears an oath in an unknown language and charges, and the camera pans out to show the horde of orcs charging behind him. [/i] Where men and nations hang their destinies on the strength of a warrior's blade.... [i] Cut to an obviously frightened hero nervously holding a rope and looking down at the window of a nearby building. He closes his eyes and jumps. [/i] a few brave souls are going to learn true strength comes... from faith. [i]"Oh please oh please oh please oh please" is heard as the man swings down towards the building, and he crashes through the window as the announcer says "faith." Music becomes more heroic. Cut to battle scene as a pair of dwarven warrirors lock blades with rampaging orcs. Cut to the deck of a ship, the music continuing its intense tone as we are treated to a display of swordplay. Cut to the flames on the stake rising higher, the woman writhing in pain as they begin to burn her flesh. Cut to a grand ballroom, courtiers in their finery dancing in full pageantry. Cut to an elven fencer matching steel with the red-robed man from earlier. Cut to cannons firing off the side of a ship, their charges glowing with scintillating runes. Cut to the earlier scene of the map, but parts of it are on fire. Cut to a man leaping onto his horse, turning only to fire a blast of lightning from his fingertips as he speeds away Cut to a wide shot as the orcish horde clashes with the imperial troops. Cut to a woman bursting free of her bonds on the stake, hovering in the air, and hurling frightened soldiers in all directions with the force of her mind. Cut to a man running at supernatural speeds down a passage as the floor rapidly collapses beneath him. He jumps from wall to wall and almost seems to dart from shadow to shadow, narrowly avoiding death. Cut to a line of hobgoblin archers releasing a hail of arrows which fly towards the advancing orc hordes. Cut to a woman pulling our nervous hero into a passionate kiss. End music. Fade to black. Cut to a very dark room, where the sounds of frightened praying are heard. As lightning illuminates the room, we see a figure drop from the ceiling and plunge his blade into a priest's chest. The room fades to black again, and then we see his orange-tinted eyes open wide. He whispers hoarsely, "I believe." [/i] [/QUOTE]
