Heroine's Quest Trailer

The lands of the North are shrouded in mystery. Isolated from much of the world, this is truly a unique land filled with magic & danger. Many strange northern creatures stalk the lands, ready to tear any wannabe heroes to pieces. Out Heroine, another recent graduate of a semi-well known correspondence school, has traveled to the North in order to prove herself a hero. She will find becoming a hero in such a inhospitable land will not be quite as easy as she envisioned.

Not to be confused with HQ: The Legend of Fair Spring, an earlier version of Heroines's Quest that was scrapped.

Story[]

Welcome to the inhospitable Northland, where trolls and wolves stalk the night, and where you are just one thin cloak away from turning into an icicle.

Rumor has it that Jotnar, the frost giants, are on the loose, and that Fenrir the Devourer stirs in his sleep. Gossip says that eldritch Svartalf magic runs wild, and that trade caravans disappear. People curse the incessant cold and eye each other warily, one hand on their trusty axe. And Northlanders are not known for their even temper.

What the land needs is a Heroine, and she had better arrive now. Are you up to the task, or will you die trying?
