I posted this before,but I think it was lost in the downtime.Basically,it's a game to keep the 'shippers happy,while keeping the Linkstah on the adventuring trail.Link goes on a quest,but he's taking the girls with him as well.They may get interested and start a romance(Read:flirtatious dialogue.You get to choose Link's responses.)

The Plot:The villain,who I am calling 'Evil Incarnate' until I can think of something better,plots to supplant Nayru,Farore,and Din by reassembling the Triforce.He casts in evil spell,putting Hyrule Castle in his shadowy grip.Zelda barely manages to escape,but monsters are on her tail.Link comes to the rescue.From there they learn of Incarnate's evil plot,gather some friends and set out to reassemble the Triforce themselves,and find an ancient artifact that can defeat Incarnate.

The Characters
Link(duh)
Zelda:First to join you,can use magic,and turn into Sheik.
Ganondorf:Second to join your party,non-romanceable.The three Triforce bearers must work together in this adventure.When you reassemble the Triforce of Power,he can turn into Ganon.
Saria:A quest for the Deku tree will net you a protective stone that allows her to exit the forest without dying...though once outside she grows to Link's age.She uses nature magic,and Kokiri 'stuff.'
Malon:Malon would be happy to join you,but first you must take care of a problem :P oes are continually spoiling her milk.Capture the Ten Poe Brothers and she will come with you.She is mainly a fighter.She can sing to encourage the party,summon Epona and crush enemies with her 'rake o' doom.'
Ruto:The three Wisdom Temples reside in Zora's domain.Ruto will show you the path and join the party.She has the cool Zora abilities of Mikau,and water related spells.
Nabooru:The Courage temples eside in Gerudo Valley.Nabooru will join your party and show you the enterance.She wields to Gerudo swords,and can also steal things.(i.e.grab a shield from a store,getting it for free.There's a chance she'll be noticed though,so be careful.)

Temples:Each of the three pieces of the Triforce have been split into three more pieces,and put into three temples,each with it's own boss.The third temples are always the most difficult,ith the greatest of the bosses.The three Wisdom Temples in Zora's Domain are your first stop.They are filled with traps,and the final boss,Kurtlshar,uses strategy to make up for his small size.It will require all your wits to get through these.The three Power temples on Death Mountain are next.Unfortunately,the enterance is guarded by the Cyrohydra King.Find the Harp of Awakening to rouse him from his deep sleep,then defeat him to enter.The Power Temples are populated with powerful creatures,and the final boss,Thoqqua the Fire Titan,packs a wallop.
The three Courage Temples are in Gerudo Valley.They are filled with deadly creatures and traps that only the bravest would face.The final boss,Vladmir the Shadow Vampire,can inspire fear in party members.The Trforce thus assembled,you must travel to the evil realm to assemble the three pieces of an ancient artifact that can stop Incarnate.The final beast is guarded by Shadowborn,the Dark Dragon.Then you must return to Hyrule and face Incarnate in his castle of Darkness.

Any comments and/or suggestions?

Two points,Kuk:
First Point:She has no known battle skills.I don't want to extrapolate too much.
Second Point:You are the only Subshipper I know of.I'm trying to include shippers with a fair following.I'm quite sure I've seen some 'Fishshippers' around *shiver* but no Subshippers but you.Besides it's confined to Hyrule.How would Rosa get there?
==================================================
Okay,I've seen a couple other Subshippers,BUT Rosa will not be in the game.She has no battle skill.She couldn't do anything besides open doors,something Nabooru,as a thief,could probably do.Besides,the adventure takes place in Hyrule,Rosa is in Holodrum.Link could NOT meet up with her.I'm sorry,but Rosa will not appear.

Holudrum is in Hyrule. It's a continent.

Much as I hate to stray from the usual Zelda 'style,'I have realized it would be impossible to do this 'live-action.'With multiple party members,it would either need to be put on CD so it could use the BG interface,or I'd have to make it turn-based fighting like the Aidyn Chroniclesnor Golden Sun.

Preferences?

I'm still not sure how to run the gameplay,but I've made a few decisions about the final 3-part battle with Reaper.(My new name for the main bad guy.)

Form one: Awaiting you at the top of the Castle of Darkness(which used to be Hyrule Castle.)is Reaper as you meet him in the beginning of the game.He fights with deadly dark spells,and can absorb energy from your Triforce pieces to make himself invincible until you blast him with the 'Rod of the Heavens' which you assembled in the Evil Realm after defeating Shadowborn.(It's a Star Rod/Starbeam thing.)

Form two: Once 'Dark Mage' Reaper has had enough,he shifts his focus to fighting.His skull-tipped staff turns into a deadly scythe and he attacks Grim Reaper style.He can still absorb Triforce energies though,so keep that Rod of the Heavens handy.

Form three: After delivering enough blows to form two,Reaper will retreat up a rainbow staircase into the Evil Realm.Follow him up.At the end of the staircase,you will find yourself looking at ahuge skull surrounded by a dark barrier.Blast it with the Rod,and its mouth will open and suck you within for the final confontation.Reaper is deep in meditation upon a platform floating through the void.When you try to blast him with the Rod,he blocks the blast and morphs into his final form--atowering skeletal beast.In one hand he clutches his elongated staff,which fires dark blasts,while his other hand transforms into a deadly sickle. (Think Death's second form from Castlevania:Circle of the Moon standing on two legs.)

Thats a Really Good idea!!!

^Hey, do you know what else would be a good idea? Bringing back the option to delete posts.

I like the game idea a lot, dude.

Great idea, I think it would be better if you could go on little dates with the girls, it could be alot like the old playstation game Thousand Arms, where you could date girls and you would have to say the right things to excel in your relationships with them

Good.

Lol...rake 'o doom...hehe...

That sounds really cool!
**************************************************
hooray thats my 150th post (i'm new)

What would dating do?Make the couple stronger.
Anyway that game sounds off the chart!

All right, I've got the game interface.

Standard screen: Basically just like a regular Zelda game. However you can switch out with various members of the party to use their skills as the situation warrants.
(i.e.: Link uses Din's Fire to get rid of a spider's web blocking the way. Within, they find a locked door, which no key will open. You then switch to Nabooru, who picks the lock.)

Battle: If you've played the Aidyn Chronicles, or D&D, you know what battle will be like. Turn-based, positioning of characters becomes important, attributes like speed/evasion, defense, hit points, strength, and magic points become important. Characters on horseback double their speed score and add +2 to their attack. Malon's singing gives allies a +2 morale bonus to attack rolls and Will saving throws, and makes them resistant to fear effects.
