LZ: Information on new ZShell RPG to be released soon

	I'm getting far in my work on my very own Z-Shell compatable RPG.
 This will definately be the best RPG out, mostly because it will be the
only real RPG out (LoD sucked, sorry).  The RPG will most likely be about
10k for the first mission, with more to follow shortly.  It will include
a graphical combat system, graphical maps, secrets, and oh so much more. 
Attached is the introduction text, a early screen shot of the first
"map."

	The mapping system is completely done.  Character movement is
completely done.  Now that remains is combat and room interaction
(opening doors, moving to new rooms, picking up things, etc).

	Any questions or comments can be directed to me, I would be glad
to answer them.  If you would like to join the info-list, email me at
eviljim@geocities.com or visit my homepage at
http://pages.prodigy.net/eviljim/.  There are a couple of shots up there
and some more information if you want it.  (The page will be extensively
updated on the 1st, when I can re-connect with my ISP).

	If you're really lonely and bored, I can send you a "beta" which
consists of you walking around a room until you hit exit.  It's really
not that spectacular just yet, but to me, being my first real program,
I'm happy.

Special thanks from this project go to 

	Jingyang Xu (for NASR)
	Andreas Ess (for releasing his sources, which I have used to
learn)
	Erik Huizing (for drawing the sprites, and for info on mapping,
although I 	     figured my own way out before I re-checked my
email...)

We all come into the world the same way - naked, screaming, covered in
blood.  But if you live your life right, that kind of thing doesn't have
to end there.


                        It has been ten years since
                        the passing of the dark ages.
                        Life has returned to normal,
                        and the world has returned
                        to an old peacefulness.
                        A new government was formed,
                        and at the center was the
                        Circle of New Life, a elite
                        group that strived to keep
                        the peace...
                        But this peace has not come
                        without a price.
                        The Circle was never seen
                        nor spoken to; and an evil
                        slowly awoke itself. As the stories
                        of horror grew, the
                        Circle closed itself off more.
