Hey, everyone!
I happen to be writing a game about Ancient Rome, and have some assets on the Unity Store in mind for my project... Here is the current list of potential player characters I've come up with for my idea. I also own a bunch of books on Ancient Rome, speak a great deal of Latin, and will collaborate with anyone who needs inspiration for this jam.
Main Classes
Magnus/a/um (stylized as MAGNVS or MAGNVM) = Important (Tank Class)
Damnus/a/um (stylized as DAMNVS or DAMNVM) = Damage (Damage Class)
Auxilium (stylized as AVXILIVM) = Help / Healing (Support Class)
Special Classes (I currently only have one)
Nympha = Nymph (a female-only variant of the MAGNVS / MAGNA / MAGNVM class with near-divine powers)
HEROES BY ELEMENT
Air
Hermione (f - Demigod / Zeus, Graecia - Magna/Auxilia) - a direct decendant of Helen of Troy who can control lightning and turn into a swan.
Luguselwa (f - Human / Druid, Gallia - Auxilia/Magna) - a druid from Gaul who specializes in air and weather conditions.
Sappheire (f - Monster / Harpy, Graecia - Magna/Damna) - a harpy from Greece, who can fly with her wings and snatch things up with her talons.
Earth
Ariogaisos (m - Human / Druid, Gallia - Auxilium/Damnum) - another druid from Gaul who specializes in plant, animal and landscape magic.
Dianthe (f - Nymph / Dryad, Latin League - Nympha/Auxilia) - a tree nymph, or dryad, who can assume a nearly-human form.
Froðleika (f - Monster / Troll, Germania - Magna/Damna) - one of the few trolls who can survive being out in broad daylight without turning to stone.
Fire
Mania Aemilia Rediviva (f - Demigod / Vesta, Roma - Magna/Damna) - a Vestal Virgin who was buried alive for claiming to be Vesta's daughter.
Quarta Fabricia (f - Demigod / Vulcan, Latin League - Auxilia/Damna) - a blacksmith's daughter from somewhere rural, who's just moved to the big city.
Water
Actaea (f - Nymph / Nereid, Syracuse - Nympha/Damna) - a nereid, or sea-nymph, who likes the shoreline, and is curious about Rome.
Tritonius (m - Demigod / Triton, Asia Minor - Damnus/Auxilium) - the son of Triton, and grandson of Poseidon, who can make earthquakes and breathe underwater.
I was also considering a Shapeshifting element, but am unsure how that would work... What do you think?
