IF YOU WANT TO FOLLOW THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE GAME, I AM MUCH MORE ACTIVE HERE: http://www.rpgmakervxace.net/topic/27893-ixias-stellar-complex-testers-wanted/
Ixias - Stellar Complex is an old-school RPG set in a futuristic dystopian city.
It has been over 60 years since the Great Augmentation Scandal that unleashed a worldwide epidemic of mutations caused by implants meant to enhance human abilities.
During these long years, the world has become mostly uninhabitable wasteland where massive cities have risen as the only shelters. The wasteland is crawling with Turinquas, the mutants, and not even the cities are completely safe.
You are Taiki Yukigan, an agent of the Black Tower corporation that specializes in Turinquas related problems, as well as simply trying to keep the Turinquas problem contained.
After discovering a grisly murder, that is tied to numerous corporations, as well as the Turinquas, you are thrown into the middle of a worldwide conspiracy. Your mission is to find the murderer, and tear down the veil of secrecy!
!!! WARNING !!!
While the game does NOT contain any R18 content, some of the language and themes in the game are extremely foul and may not be suitable for everyone. If you're very squeamish with things like murder, poverty, sexuality, prostitution, drugs, etc, you probably shouldn't play the game.
The city is a place for dozens of characters, but these are the playable ones and the characters in the middle of the story.
Taiki is the only child of the great Yukigan family, and the sole heir of the YukiCorp, a multi-billion ICR corporation. However, several years ago he decided to leave YukiCorp and join the Black Tower instead, to be able to help others, instead of sitting behind a desk.
Taiki's Ixias damages the fabric between reality and surreality.
Example skill:
Diadem of 12 Stars - Deals non-elemental Ixias damage to all enemies and lowers their Kaos and Aegis.
Kharoshi is an intelligent young man who comes from the slums of Windenfyr district. As his Ixias awakened years ago, he was taken in by the Black Tower, giving him shelter and training him to become the strong fighter he is today.
Kharoshi's Ixias changes the genetic code of his targets, resulting in severe abominations.
Example skill:
Culmination - Deals non-elemental Ixias damage to one enemy and stuns them.
Tsukimi is a strong individual. She handles herself well in any combat situation and is extremely calculating and efficient, but isn't at her strongest when it comes to situations dealing with emotions. She comes from a troubled family, filled with drug and debt problems. As she has built her own life in Black Tower, she has sworn to do everything in her power to keep people around her from falling down the dark path of drugs and organized crime.
Tsukimi's Ixias allows her to burn her victims with searing flames.
Example skill:
Road to Awe - Deals Scorch Ix damage to all enemies and drains the damage as HP.
Shayoko is a mysterious young girl from the sheltered Nature Dome district of the city. In this district, rich families and communities can live in a fake utopia, sheltered from the dystopian reality. As Shayoko is kidnapped and finds herself in the city, she begins to question her place in life. Should she return to the utopia and continue living a meaningless life, or stay in the dark city, but be able to make a difference with her unique Ixias?
Shayoko's Ixias allows her to see past events in places with strong emotional signatures, as well as heal her allies in combat.
Example skill:
Heart Strings - Recovers HP and removes Wound.
