Prologue
In a world ruled by the Major Arcana from the Tarots, people lost their faith in the ruling spirits, causing a weakening in their influence and disrupting the world balance. The fortune-teller, Charlotte, saw the hideous future to come, thus, she chose to intervene and design a saving hero. Mighty heroes came from across the farthest lands, but Charlotte choice fell on Taro, her sweeper man.
Moved by compassion and his kind-heart, Taro will set out through a tedious adventure across the various biomas in order to revert people faith in them and prevent the Fool's plan.
Main characters
TARO Unlike the typical protagonist, who faces challenges with courage and willpower, Taro drags himself along reluctantly and his success will often be the result of luck or his laziness, which makes him the best at finding the quickest and least demanding solutions. His character is visually expressed by a puny body, dark circles under his eyes, a blank expression and slow animations. | |
CHARLOTTE Since her ill-advised choice has put her in trouble, the fortune teller Charlotte will use Taro as she can restore his credibility. Charlotte just wants to prove to everyone that she's right, and the trust she shows in the protagonist is just a veil that hides the belief that she is right. | |
THE HERMIT The spirit of the hermit tarot. It's a wandering and solitary character that Taro will often meet during his journey; he tends to give him advice and support throughout all the adventure. His attitude a bit weird sometimes... |
