Story
[5] In the beginning the world of Aura was a far cry from the world known today. An empty husk of a world on which only gods could tread. Thegods decided to bring life to the desolate planet, giving up their ownpower so as to create creatures to roam the planet as well. The gods created the humans, the elves and the dwarves, each with their ownstrengths and weaknesses so that no one race could over throw them. Allwas well and the creatures lived in harmony with each other and thegods, paying tribute to their creators and building the smallbeginnings of civilization. But this peace could not last for long, several of the gods, who hadnot played key roles in the development of the world of Aura now feltanger towards their fellow gods and the success of their creation.These dark gods wished to overthrow the original powers of the worldand rule over it as their own, creating creatures of their own…monstrosities, with which to wipe out the races the original gods hadforged, breaking their faith and causing them to swing to the side ofdarkness.The elves humans and dwarves however were not to stand forsuch a plan, banding together in one final stand for the world ofAura. At the top of the world, in a location all but lost in time, theforces of good and evil battled for the fate of the planet. Three heroes were to arise, bringing the Humans elves and dwarves to victory… but at the cost of their lives… and many of theircomrades.Those who survived the catastrophic first war became thecreatures of Aura today, weak monsters who managed to escape, adepleted population of elves and dwarves… and the humans. For some time, peace returned to the land of Aura, the three races working together to rebuild their shattered world, relying less on their gods who had forsaken them in a time of war and need, Instead building strong relations between their fellow races, forming massiveempires with large trade routes across the world. Many things wereinvented in this great age… the dwarves built massive cannons, poweredby steam and black powder… the humans, beginning research in the art ofkilling, their warriors becoming stealthy and lethal, assassins… whilethe elves, focused on magic, creating the greatest arch mages known tohistory. This was not to last, the age of peace once again dissolving into warand chaos as the races began to argue amongst themselves. No one isquite sure what started the war… The elves and their high and mightyattitude? The dwarves and their stubborn beliefs? Or the humans andtheir desperate quest for strength and power… Whatever the cause, a warbegan anew, plunging the world into some of the bloodiest battles everto grace the continents of Aura. The gods, finally deciding tointerfere in the workings of the world of Aura, used their power tocreate one last creature… the Zinne… the defenders of peace, blessedwith the ultimate power of the gods, brought a swift end to the war. But it was almost too little too late… the elves and the dwarves hadbeen forced into obscurity by the humans, being driven to the edges ofthe world, where they would remain. A new age arose, the Zinne fadinginto obscurity as the human race flourished once again, enforcing theirempires until finally, only two great nations were left, the Kingdom ofPromathia and the Republic of Erkek. These two cities grew in power,and ruled the land for many a year, enforcing law in the world. Once again, this alliance between nations would not last. With the twovery separate forms of governing, neither more right than the other,the two nations became divided once again. The Kingdom of Promathia,with its powerful king, assuring that the only true rule was amonarchy, a vision that the kingdom’s people were willing to fight tomaintain… While the Republic of Erkek believed in democracy, electing their officials and believing strongly in rights and freedoms, a beliefthey believed was worth fighting for… And so it was… that once again… a time of war was on the horizon. As acivilian in these times of tension, it is up to you. Will you fightfor the kingdom? Will you strive for freedom and democracy? In thistime of division… it’s all up to you!

Programming
Jake went on to become involved in C# with Aura and made lots of new and exicting features.
Many features were not done by C# the bank was one. The website was done with PHP and Pearl, the same languages were done with the forum and has made a great impact on Aura's community. Claris Pearl Specialist was a helper for Megaman during aura but never stayed long enough, Claris helped Jake build up the website and the forum, and made great success in designing in-Game armor.
In Learning
Jake learned his languages over various websites and books from the local library in Elswick, Jake Said..
Visual Basic
Some of the key programs we need to make Aura: The beginning is using Visual Basic 2008, its free to download from Microsoft's Visual Basic 2008 and the programming used or can be used is C#.
Other Work
Jake designed more then just Aura, Jake helped in flash and windowed games. Like Bobba Streets & Endless Online.
Bobba Streets
Jake was a Lead Designer in Bobba Streets(BS), Bobba Streets(BS)[7] was a social networking website owned and operated by Jake in his own front room. features were rendered by isometric projection [8] in the form of virtual hotel rooms. User pages on the website are linked to these rooms and allow users to share content and create groups with discussion forums. Each user, called a Bobba, has a customizable avatar to represent him or herself. Unfortunetly the site died due to inactivity of too many players and Jake was forced to close down, Jake isnt planning to re-open BS anytime soon, but if he said he has great success with Aura then he would consider it. When i knew it was actually illegal i closed everything down on the site.
Endless Online
Jake was offered a place at Endless Online as a Programmer & GM, Jake held the position well until a long holiday left endless online vulnerable. When the servers strangly went offline, Jake was not there to help when it was needed most and was fired for his inactivity.
Jake Now Smokes Crack Full-Time.

Revenue
Aura: The Beginning will gain revenue from credits bought with real-life currency. Credits are used to buy products such as virtual furniture for the virtual worlds. Both Aura and BS uses the same type of exchange, Credits for in-game currency. The money then goes off to new upgrades to the users of Aura: The Beginning.
Where does it all go
It goes for new features on Aura: The Beginning, paying for upgrades and keeping ourselves alive on the internet.
Donations
[9] Aura: The Beginning also offers a donation system for everyone, very bit helps to make Aura alot more active.
