Well, I actually haven't thought about it very hard. I'm still trying to find time to finish my story. I have the main points of the story, but I need to work out story specifics.

So far the only legit enemies I have are Tenju himself, and his second in command, which is going to be a giant wolf-bat like creature. Tenju is a powerful shadow spirit, and leader of a mazzive shadow army if that tips you off to what the enemies will look. Because this is a bird themed game, naturally, a majority of the enemies will be some variant of flying creature. Tenju's army so far will consist of scavenger-esk birds ( blackirds, ravens, condors, vultures, buzzards, etc.) I might make other enemies that a both natural enemies and prey of birds. Snakes and insects respectively. The enemies will range from being humanoid to behaving like regular animals and there fighting style will reflect. The size will also reflect their strength and weakenesses. Enemies will also range in intelligence from the retarded standard minions to intelligent pain-in-the-ass minions that are higher in tenju's ranks. The enemies wont be too much of a pain because that takes the fun away from the game, but they will be challenging. The types of enemies will also vary from region to region with the reoccurrance of certain enemies depending on the region.

Fighting strategy variants:
Melee enemies (Offensive and Defensive)
Projectile enemies ( light to heavy artillary)
Turret enemies (light to heavy artillary)
Enemies riding enemies
Enemies that organize groups of other enemies
Enemies that strength other enemies attributes ( strength, speed, defense, health, etc.)

Designs will come over time. I would like to finish the story before i work on other things like designs for minor characters, minions, etc.

Understood.

Hello all,
It's been a long time coming, but my story is finally finished minus the nit-picky details. What you are about to see is an ellaboration on the 10 pt. plot that you saw earlier on this topic. This is about as far as I will go with details on the story. I'm not going to take the time to try and ellaborate on dialogue and cinematography. The game developers that take this idea con worry about that stuff. I'm sure that most of you can imagine where cutscenes, in-game dialogue, and game play will be accordingly. If not, I will consider ellaborating. Once again though, game developer's problem mostly...with my consent.

Here we go; enjoy:
