The Life and Suffering of Prince Jerian | A New Release About a Crown Prince in a Ruthless World!

101ХР :

Developer Schisma Games and 101XP Publishing are excited to announce The Life and Suffering of Prince Jerian — a narrative roleplaying game that positions the player as the heir to the Great Arknian Empire, who must carve out a destiny for his nation. The world is grim, and the gods are eager to punish anyone who breaks their commandments. People live preordained lives: their fates are sealed the moment they are born. It is up to the player to decide what kind of leader they will be: uphold the established order, or build a new kind of future.

Your word will determine your Empire's destiny. The Fires of the Inquisition are blazing across the Blessed Arknian Empire. The nobility lives in the lap of luxury, and the common rabble have but one fate: submit to the will of the powerful and struggle through. Such are the commandments of the harsh gods of all creation: everyone has their Lot in life, and should anyone stray from their Lot, they will suffer great punishment. You, on the other hand, have a different fate: you are chosen by the gods to serve as their instrument. Take the reigns and rule your nation.

You, Prince Jerian of House Tempest, must embark on a lifelong journey. It starts in your childhood, with blissful unawareness of your destiny, and continues into your maturity when you must become an emperor: a role you have been primed for since birth. As crown prince, you must not only understand your country and its culture, but also make difficult choices that affect the fragile balance of powers in the Empire, and within yourself. Will you uphold the age-old order, or create a new future? The choice is yours.

Game Features:

Affect the World Around You
As a future ruler, you must learn the current state of the Empire. The treasury is running dry as the estates rise one against another, fighting for their interests. The church withers and sows hatred among the people, noble houses aspire to keep the old traditions, and commoners demand equal rights with the nobility. Pay attention to these circumstances and decide the country’s path while chasing your own goals.

Make Difficult Choices
The time will come, and the Emperor’s scepter will lie in your hands, but you feel its weight even now. You have to act immediately: you are the only one able to change the course of history, to unite or shatter the country. Make difficult choices that affect the nation and you alike. Promises given to yourself might become your most unbearable burden. Every decision brings consequences, and your mistakes will be paid for by the entire Empire.

Carve Your Way
You were given power by birth, but the cost of such majesty is your own ambition. You are shackled not only by the outside world and its circumstances, but also by your soul. Thinking of who you are, who you want to be, and who the Empire wants to see in you, such is your lot. Making a choice of your own requires a sacrifice. Following the political situation and your family’s demands might drive you mad. Will you save yourself or allow your soul to shatter into pieces?

Navigate Political Intrigue
Be careful in choosing your allies: those who you keep close will shape your character and affect your decisions. Your family, your subjects, nobles and commoners alike, every single one wants your attention and patronage. Help one, and you will lose the support of another. Whether you succeed in maintaining the fragile balance of the Empire or let it all burn down in civil war will be decided by you.

Uncover Divine Truths
Not only are you the crown prince, but also the Primate, who connects the worlds of the living and the divine. You and your family of the Tempest are the keepers of the Pact, a “testament” between the Twins and those who live by their will. Can it be changed without dooming the world? You will find the answer yourself.

Write Your Own Tale
The power that you possess is not an end, but a means. You are destined to save the world entrusted to you by your ancestors and gods. What future awaits the New Empire, and who will benefit? Whose sufferings will end, and whose will begin? Only time will tell.

The game is currently in development, but is coming soon to Steam and the 101XP.com portal. Add the game to your Wishlist and join our Discord community to follow all updates!
