Right heres the basic jist of my storyline idea... i think you'll like it,
however its only in the drawing board stage atm...

Right the basics are...

There is a World [we'll call this Elrynd for this explaination]
With three continents [a (west)/b(middle)/c(east)]

When you start you are given a basic explaination of what has happened, but
its only by playing that you learn more.

Just after the dawn of time a meteority landed in b. An ice age shortly
ensued. 40,000 years later the ice age ends and life begins to grow, but at
amazing speed and with many forms. Species grow with powers ranging from
strength, magic, etc.

Some of the species that grow [npc species] are completed uncontrollable
and ravenous whilst others are tame. Intelligent species [player species]
form the kingdom of Bob in b. They fight the ravenous species out to c.

The intelligent species live in relative harmony for years although tales
remain to this day that tell of extreme murder and savage acts committed by
human/elf/gnome/etc again each other. Until one day the King [has two sons
x and y] Princes grow up [x is very kind] [y is a b*stard]... y kills King.
Well... it all kicks off... y creates kingdom in east and x in the west
middle island is left as a kind of no mans land. Slowly x and y gather
their followers [good and evil].

Players can become good or evil by choices made in quests and by committing
acts of bravery or PKing low levels

THATS THE BASICS

The deeper story is that the meteor contained good and evil [thinking of
names for these] ... they were not gods or entities, but forces. and they
feed off those who follow them. This meteor was sent by some all powerful
one [thinking of reason].
