It's gonna be my first one and it's also gonna be an epic story spanning a whole lotta chapters, and just how to do it. I have plans for characters and such but i also need info on the pso time line. Oh yeah and what kinda programs do you use to write with.

Thanx in advance.

Do not use MSWord. Well, you can use it if you turn off all the autocorrect thingies, I think. But I do mean ALL of them.

So, You're going to write a fic starting at like, PS1? The original? Hmmm, That's going to be hard to link together. I'm sorry, but I haven't beaten my Phantasy Star Collections yet. Nor have I played PS4. I wish you luck in your hunt!

Wordperfect works for typing things up. MSWord/works does not.

I was always considering doing a PSo timeline as I interpret it, with approximate dates to events as seemed realistic or to fit in with my fan fics.

Roughly:

7 years ago - Pioneer 1 arrives at Ragol.

5 years ago - Ruins discovered. Flowen gets infected and fakes death. Gal De Val island facility constructed.

1 year ago (approx) - De Rol Le escapes into sewers.

Present day - Pioneer 2 arrives at Ragol.

1-2 hours later - Communication interrupted by explosion at central dome.

6+ hours later - Calus starts to send messages to Elly.

4 days later - Rico possessed by Dark Falz. Less than an hour later, message received from Flowen at unknown location several miles south of central dome.

5 days later - 'Gran Squall' sent to investigate.

6 days later - PLAYER starts.

3+ Months later - Falz defeated. Second message received from Flowen, traced to Gal De Val island.

5 Months later - PLAYER goes to Gal De Val island.

....
....

21 years later - Episode 3.

------

I my proposed treatment I would have gone into detail about plot points mention in the quests.

Hope this information is useful!

PS Most of dates/times are approximate. In your own story feel free to manipulate Time & Space to suit your needs.
