Gameplay

Explore the region and stuff on the overworld by posting suggestions. Battles are turn based, so every party member gets to pull one move off. Then, the enemies do their attacks. Some moves are free, but others will cost energy. Energy is what powers magical, technological, or other fancy moves. Characters start will 30*Magic/Tech energy, and recover 10 every turn. They also have 30*Melee health, which, you know, depletes on hit. Characters with higher Ranged have better luck. There are also status ailments, like burn, freeze, poison, regeneration, slowness, paralyzation, etc.

Beginning



???: Hey, Michael.
???: Oh, wonderful, he's sleeping.
???: Wake up.
???: HEY! WAKE UP!



Zeus: Finally. I'm speaking to you from inside a cage in the Underworld, and my name is Zeus. You may have heard of me in school, but half the myths they teach you are untrue. Anyway, I don't have much time, so here's the deal. You're a descendant of the god of time, Chronos, but because of all the breeding with mortals you don't really retain your powers. I'm going to give you Chronos's sword, which might return some of your powers. I and the other gods need you to go into the Museum of History and get the ancient Greek artifact. You'll know which one it is, you'll feel the power as a demigod. Come free us. Now, you best wake up, because it's 10:30, and back when we were still being worshipped, people got up at dawn. Best of luck.
Michael: What the hell? Who said that?



Michael: Huh, must have been a dreaaa... is that a sword?

Demigods are descendants of gods, and the restorative power things of the weapon in the OP only work because it's a relic of his ancestry. However, he's a good character, so accepted.
