  • Fable, a game made by Lionhead Studios (RIP) that stars... hero.

  • He doesn't have a name, he's just the hero.

  • Hero spends his time in the peaceful village of Oakvale living a contented life of beating

  • up children and animals, up until shit gets real.

  • Bandits invade the town, killing the Hero's entire family and destroying the village.

  • He decides to pull a total Batman and turn him self into a super badass, and to do this,

  • he heads off to the Hero's Guild.

  • The Hero's Guild is basically just murder school, since all they teach is how to more

  • effectively destroy your enemies, which is fuckin' rad.

  • To be more precise, the guild teaches the ways of strength, skill, and will.

  • Strength covers melee, making you more powerful with swords and increasing health.

  • Skill makes you better with bows and faster.

  • Will, let's you do a whole mess of different acts god, such as slowing down time, summoning

  • the dead, and shooting lightning!

  • Also, a cool staple of the Fable series is that developing your hero's attributes also

  • affects the appearance of your hero.

  • Developing skill makes you taller, developing will gives these goofy ass bright markings

  • on your body, and enough development in strength makes you an honorary member of the SWOLE

  • PATROL.

  • Yeah!

  • Upon reaching adulthood, the guild master throws you out on your ass and basically says,

  • eh, just go do whatever.”

  • After doing said whatevers for a while, you eventually come face to face, er face to mask

  • anyway, with Jack of Blades, the man you find out is responsible for the destruction of

  • your village and you're all like, “Oh, it's on bro.”

  • After meeting your sister and mother who, surprise, turn out to be alive all of a fuckin

  • sudden, you are sent off to stop Jack from obtaining the sword of Aeons, which will allow

  • to him to take over the world, which I don't want because the world is MINE!

  • You give chase to Jack, and find him in a large chamber in the guild with your mother

  • held hostage.

  • Turns out he needs your family's blood to activate the sword, so he kills your mother,

  • like, for real this time.

  • And now, jack has the most powerful weapon know to man... fug.

  • It's ok, though, because I have the power of courage!

  • By which I mean, I have the power of “I shot the dude in the head like 20 times.”

  • After taking the sword off Jacks corpse, I'm given the choice of banishing the sword forever,

  • or killing my sister and keeping the sword for myself.

  • After realizing the thing's gaudy as hell, I'm likenopeand toss the thing into

  • the void.

  • And now peace has returned to Albion...

  • JK!

  • Turns out that before you even have a cahnce to sit down, Jack is back!

  • So, in order to kill his ass again, I travel to a far off island and find I need the souls

  • of three heroes in order to open the gate guarding him.

  • The first soul I go after belongs to the hero Thunder.

  • I choose him because he's been a total prick to me this whole time.

  • He's always on withUghhh, you killed my sister.

  • Wahhh.”

  • Whatever!

  • I got 10 grand for killing her!

  • I'm trying to save the world dude! I need money.

  • Anyway, Thunder comes down with a sudden case of multiple stab wounds, so his soul is mine

  • for the taking.

  • Next, I need the souls of a heroine.

  • I choose Briar Rose because, I don't know, I don't like her face, I guess?

  • Again, I kill her and take her soul.

  • Then I need the soul of the ancient hero, Nostro.

  • Don't know why I need his soul, I just know I want to get to Jack.

  • After killing his corpse, I guess, I can finally open the gate.

  • All right Jack, you clown wanna-be son of a bitch, it's time to take you down for goo-

  • oh fuck, Jack is a dragon now.

  • When did this happen?!

  • Eh, whatever.

  • Guess it's time to rock the dragon, so I do.

  • I employ the ancient martial artist tactic of, “shoot arrows a lotand bring Jack

  • down.

  • I'm then given the choice of throwing Jack's mask into magma, banishing him forever, or

  • dawning the mask myself and aborning it's power.

  • Power is nice, but considering this dude killed my family and that I've been trying to kill

  • him for most of the game, I feel like honoring the dude's death is kind of counter productive.

  • So in the fire it goes.

  • And with this, Jack is finally gone.

  • Like, for real this time.

  • And with the wrold at peace, the hero is free to spend his days doing the things he loves

  • most.

  • Those things being stealing things, kicking animals, beating civilians, and dancing in

  • public like a jack ass.

  • The End...

Fable, a game made by Lionhead Studios (RIP) that stars... hero.
