kMSt ver. 1.2.392 – Mercedes Storyline!
When she wakes up from her sleep, Mercedes realizes that her town is still frozen. She wants to leave to get help but she thinks that she’s not strong enough to tackle the slimes that are outside Eurel so she trains on the puppets inside. Then, she decides to finally go to the nearest town to ask for information, which turns out to be Ellinia. She starts asking about elves and that leads her to do a bunch of favours for people.
But while doing them, she gets a message from Phyllius, and goes back to Eurel to see that the three elders have been thawed out! They tell her to talk to Betty, who tells Mercedes to meet Helena in Henesys.
Helena is overjoyed to see that Mercedes is alive (just like Aran)! They hug, and then Helena tells Mercedes that she should return to Eurel, as many bad people might be lurking.
When Mercedes tries leaving, the Black Wings member Francis the Puppeteer attacks! After defeating him, Helena tells Mercedes that they should go to Eurel immediately, since the Black Wings have already made their move.
Along the way, they are attacked by the Black Mage’s henchmen. In town, Helena tells Mercedes to go to Ereb and ask for cooperation from the Cygnus Knights to fight the Black Wings. Nineheart is reluctant but Cygnus wins him over.
Mercedes returns to Eurel and Astella says that something is wrong with the fountain of Eurel. She goes to check it out and more of the Black Mage’s henchmen attack.
After defeating them, Mercedes get a strange letter from an anonymous person saying they want to test the Elf King and one of the great 5 hero’s strength. It tells Mercedes to come to Sleepywood if she is not scared. Upon reaching Sleepywood, she sees another one of the Black Wings’ members, the nameless Shadow Warrior. After Mercedes defeats him, she goes back to Helena for advice.
A while later, Helena sends Mercedes a letter telling her that she should go to Ludibrium. There she meets a hooded guy named Reggie. Hmm… his beard seems familiar…
He tells her to meet him down in the clock tower, but when she gets there, it turns out to be a trap! The Black Wings member, Dargoth the Giant is waiting! She defeats him and wonders why Helena would send her here… she decides to go talk to her. She says that she didn’t send a letter and it was the work of the Black Wings…
Mercedes talks to one of the representatives of Ereb in Eurel. A child in Eurel has awoken! But apparently it was Mercedes who took him somewhere! She arrives in Eurel and explains that she was not the one with the child. Is this the work of the Black Wings again? She receives a ransom letter telling her to go to Leben Mine to find him…
Upon reaching there, the Black Wings member Le Tierre says that the child is in the mine next to her. Mercedes goes in but is ambushed by many of the Black Mage’s henchmen! When she defeats them all, she goes to save the child, but it is one of the kids from Edelstein, not the one from Eurel! After returning the kid to Edelstein, she returns to Le Tierre who says that another Black Wings member has the child…
Mercedes goes ahead to meet her, and the Black Wings member General Orca reveals herself! Orca is the one that led the Black Mage’s army in the past before he was sealed away. She has been waiting a long time to defeat Mercedes. She says that the time for the Black Mage to revive is near. After defeating her, Mercedes returns the child to Eurel and talks to Phyllius who says that Eurel should work on fortifying their boundaries. He tells Mercedes to go to Helena and tell her what happened.
Mercedes explains to Helena all that happened, and then she tells her that she is scared. She says that she doesn’t have the same power from long before and that she might not be successful in sealing away the Black Mage again. She thinks that she is pathetic for being scared of the Black Mage, being one of the five heroes who fought him so long ago. Helena comforts her and tells her to rely on others more, as they are not the same people who ran away in the past. She says that Mercedes needs to overcome her fears and understand what gives her power, and that Mercedes will be their bravest reinforcement.
P.S. When you make a Mercedes, you choose between male or female, after that your only choice is between 2 faces!
P.P.S. The music player in Eurel actually works, and it changes the BGM of the town for everyone in it!
P.P.P.S. This is the NPC that gives Mercedes her medals, the Great Spirit.
P.P.P.P.S. A new world is coming called Elf! Nexon is so creative with their names.
What ever happened with the evan dragon she meets up with?
Afrien gives Freed an Onyx Dragon egg that he hides away before he dies.
man maple stories are so great XD
They should make a PQ with all the 5 heroes (when they are all eligible to play) giving tons of exp and such o_o
Lol id just be like,TAKE THAT ADVENTURERS,you and your stupid ellin forest PQ.
OWWWWWW interresting cant w8 to see the last two legends and hear their story line.
Also it sucks freed and afrien died he’s ten times better then evan and mir
@Suprem true b/c Freed had his own powers unlike Evan who had to borrow power from the onyx dragon mir. Meh i wonder if the 4th hero which is the thief legend had a city and I wonder if the 5th hero is gonnna be related to Kyrin’s father…..GJ Max and good job Nexon for picking unique names for the heros. Aran, Evan, Mercedes, Boralis, Krytus meh so many namesssss…
They already named the Thief and Piratte heroes Boralis and Krytus? I hope one of them is a girl…Boralis sounds a little girlish.
Lol what? Where did you hear that?
What NovaNuvaMS said. I wasn’t completely sure about it though. In the fake update I made on my new blog (i made the Boralid and Krytus comment also), I named the thief Mylin and pirate Lerdita though (thief has dual claws and pirate has dual guns).
hmm no.. the theif hero will be the Phantom theif his name is Phantom….
How come the Black Wings use Bunnies as their henchmen. o.o
Maybe the black wing loves bunnies? xD
its called animal abuse.
its beacause they are underfunded………….
weird how she didnt lose her memory
is the spirit the Mercedes’ version of maha the polearm spirit? as all the heroes have sentiant wepons and all.
Not sure… the spirit says like… nothing. It’s just that only the Elf King (Mercedes) can see her.
If you buy the hair change coupon is it rendered useless? Or no.
Nope, you can still change them.
Hey max. Do you live in korea and are you korean?
LOL @ world name
anyways seems to be a cute storyline c:
I love (LOVE!) how you posted in-game images along with your story.
Great work Orange mushie~
Thanks for the post.
Yay I love the Heroes Storylines!
No mention of Seal Stones then for this Hero o.o
I hope to God when all 5 are released they progress the storyline for each hero x_X
Thanks as always!
oh harro spadow #2
That was a very enjoyable read! Now if only someone would do this for KoC, Aran, Evan, and Dual Blade now…I’ll be satisfied.
Interesting story. Still kind of generic and mediocre but that’s the best Nexon can do when they feel like trying and have to work on those revamps for the thieves and pirates that should have been out way earlier.
Is it just me or does General Orca look like she has the female Aran haircut?
And what’s with the Black Wings’ obsession with bunnies? If you look closely you’ll notice General Orca has a bunny hair clip and a bunny head-shaped pin on her uniform.
And wasn’t there something about Afrien and Freed or was that just in the flashback/prologue?
Anyway, good job as always Max d(o.o)b
Well that was in the tutorial so I didnt really cover it.
Thanks 🙂
2nd question.
Maybe that’s because Black Mage is a Big Bunny himself?
You’re probably joking but, the black mage has been confirmed to be human.
I can’t wait until mercedes comes out in gMS. I really wanna be one. Good posting as always max. Well Done!!
since there are three new jobs coming out, will nexon give us 3 slots if our character slots are full?
You get one with Cannon Shooter. You can get another through a future event.
Is it possible to play kMS without being in korea or do i have to wait till mercedes comes out in gMS
i have a question
can you get the mercedes clothes from cash shop?
i wanna know!!!
Oh god ..
I sense a bunch of storyline quests .
GJ Max. (:
Can’t wait for this to come out in kMS official server.
Hmm, choices of characters seem to be. . . Female. . . and Shemale? lolss Which one is the girl??
The one on the left is the male. In case you haven’t noticed, “Mercedes” is a female name, so it’s not unexpected how feminine both genders look. On the other hand, you can still change your hair with cash to look less…I don’t know what word to use here…ambiguous I guess.
남자 = Male
여자 = Female
But seriously if a male playing mecedes and he choose the female type … It gonna be awkward ..
And also for the opposite .. Lol
Not necessarily. I know quite a few people who would rather make the female version than have…whatever that is on the left xD. Personally, I don’t see much wrong with that. Also, Mercedes is a female name. I honestly can’t imagine why anyone would choose the male version Mercedes, other than simply following the pattern of guys having all male characters. Unless of course, that person is willing to spend cash to make the character look less feminine.
So many P.X.S lol
Nice one here Max!
I read it whole,its a good story! Wish they’d interlink it to the other 2 heroes like Aran’s & Evan’s are intertwined.
” She says that the time for the Black Mage to revive is near. ”
Isn’t the black mage revived already and him using his powers caused Big Bang to happen ?
The black wings chick is kinda hot
Some one can give me 1 kms account, i really want to play kms but dont have kssn number
PLzzz
dude you need one to make a kms account and getting or even borrowing a kssn is against the law
I want to create a Mercedes so badly >.<
Have to wait like, 8 months ?
Keke thanks for the storyline max 😀 starting to like your blog more!
So you cant change the skin tone either!
Can you also change their faces with the coupons from the cash shop? This wasn’t answered, so I thought I’d ask.
Yup.
Thank you!
If you changed my skin tone or hair of Mercedes would you keep your pointy ears?
I think so lol
can you describe the job advancement process? for 2nd and 3rd job, don’t care about 4th job cause i will never get there anyway
I can’t because on Tespia I advanced through Goldstein D:
I actually don’t think they have done the advancements yet since Goldstein still advances you..
i found out how to do 2nd job advance, you just go to the great spirit and she will advance you, don’t need to do anything else
That general Orca… looks familar. I’m quite sure the artwork of her has appeared before. Remember the korean artist who drew the big bang comic series? His online name was Naver if i’m not wrong… Orca appeared in the clash between the trapped resistance members and the many roids. The rescued test subject Vita was there too in that chapter if I didn’t remember wrongly.
Hm… Do you have a link to this? I’m interested in seeing these comics. But navigating the Korean MS sites is a bit difficult. I just tried looking through the Naver blog, and… What..?
I have a funny feeling that the Black Mage might be a Bunny Skeleton under that black robe. Which would be cool and scary. And that must be some black magic for General Orca to still look so young from long ago.
General Orca looks suspiciously like the female Aran..
The video is beaitufil ❤ wow nexon has really pulled the strings yet again with ANOTHER animated commercial 😀
ok now the burning question is why the TV does not include Aran? Mecedes and Aran not on good terms?
let discuss….
They’re actually not if you read GMS’ MapleMas tale.
Basically, Aran fights with honor and when he was fighting the Ice Knight to stop the Black Mage’s army in a one-on-one battle, Mercedes cheated and used a tranquilizer. Aran found out and got mad at her, and Mercedes typically hates him due to his honor and chivalry. They made up, though, but I guess she still hates him to a point.
First off, I want to say that Orca has a bunny fling. She absolutely adores bunnies, which makes sense why her henchmen are bunnies. That being said, Orca the Black Sky wasn’t fighting seriously, and I’m pretty sure she escaped – whether she survived the Black Mage’s anger for being an inept failure is another story.
But I’m pretty sure we’ll be seeing little Orca again.
And for those saying her haircut = female Aran, did Aran have two ponytails? I recall Aran having one – Orca’s got two.
Actually, in the Resistance job quests, you get ambushed by Black Wings henchmen that are obviously bunnies, so this isn’t the first time Bunnies are used as henchmen (and maybe even more… you never know :P). Sometimes it’s nice to be a female general with a lot of henchMEN 😀
“The Great Spirit” is in noticeably, unusually higher resolution than most other in-game sprites.
Wait a second, how did nobody between both Perion and Ellinia notice an entire elven town just frozen in suspended animation? Ellinians I assume would go around their forest, and being magically-inclined could sense a sort of magical cloak around the town. Perion is in the mountains so shouldn’t somebody have noticed an entire town slowly degrading?
What?
good point mang >.<
it was sealed off
why is the demon slay part of the heros like the rest of the others who fought the black mage hundred years ago like Mercedes Aran Phantom and Evan
orca is hot
Im on lvl 30 but i cant defeat francis
Any tips? plz help me!
