The Whisper of The Dark Campaign.

I'm currently making a campaign, which already has 5 Maps. It just needs dialogue and that's all.
But I do need some unique characters to go along the story. I hope you guys can help me.
1.A warrior Monk: He dress in a brown robe, optional: his face is hidden by the hood. His shield which he carries bear the head of a eagle. And his sword is a short sword or regular sword. Around his neck he carries a golden medallion.
2.The Eastern Merc: Tales says that he was once a honorable Knight, but greed soon turn him away from honor and loyalty to wealth and Glory. He rides on his mare of iron, he carries his Shield of his house which bear the animal of his house, the Antelope. He is a master at wielding a spear, able to attack from afar when on his horse or not.
3.The captain: A man of lowly birth, drafted into the army but grew through the ranks. He wears a cape of [player color]. his great shield is his main weapon but he carries a small sword with him.
I think that's all for now, well at least what I could think of. Can at least one you guys make these guys? Or is that too much to ask for.
Also do you guys want to see the maps? It probably won't be a great quality image.

Already finish some of the maps, if you want to see them I could show you but the quality won't be great.

The House of Norflay is the most powerful and oldest house in the province of Wayston. In fact, they were the ruling house before they were overthrown and place under the rule of S.W. 124 years ago.
The Banner that represent the house is a blue background with black acting as waves as the house animal; the Cutthroat trout is in the center.
The head of the house is Duke Randall, age 34. His wife Alyssa, has no history or previous known whereabouts where she came from. Together they have three children. The oldest being Randy. The second being Jasper. The youngest and only daughter is Celia.

I hoping this is better, because I don't know how to do the other one. What program or thing that you guys are using?

I'm using "JSON editor" android app,it has icon of yellow { },but it causes some problems too.

I use the app you recommend, did it work? If not just copy the code above.

plrease dont use any editor that is for jsons, that will ruin the readability.
these files looks fairly good

I hope so, because I do need them for the campaign. I will make the other two siblings and the mother.

As I said,it's simple text editor that is called json editor becouse you can edit and save only json files. You were saying that it changes some minor cosmetic thinks,but json still works.

Some change? If it's just cosmetic and it still works, then it's no problem then, I think.

you misunderstood. it is essential to keep the alignment for ease of later editing, if that app changes anything than that is not a "text editor", we need to find a real text editor that changes nothing if this is changing things that is not intentionally modified.

ok i downloaded a text editor and seems ok: "Total Commander - file manager"
this is FREE and ruins nothing in a json, browse a file and modify without changing anything else you have edited yourself
on pc i suggest "TextPad" that is free and cool.

Here, I use what you suggested Stratego. I edited the natural man and hopefully it's in the same alignment.

the format is cool
but here are problems i see in the content:
- no spaces in filenames
- please use the current naming conventions, eg:
unit_human_duke_randell_son.png
unit_human_duke_randell.png
- also for json
- unittypename: also you used non capital unit typename - that is different then all existing - also u used space in that too, please not. simplest and good choice to use the same as the filename but uppercased
- IS_TERRAIN_ENTITY", "IS_GAIA_AI_BEAR - these should be removed, it is not a bear, nor a terrain entity.
please fix them so i can put them in.

There it is, I think I done it.
quick answer: good!
here is the things i see at first:
- filename needs to be lowercase (i think u misunderstood the line i wrote about unit type name, i have fixed the sentence above)
- the trnspec actions: if there is none than should be null instead of [""], this will cause error
- you have not defined sound pack for it, so it will be mute.

This would be easier if I wasn't looking for units to use as a base, I wonder, don't you guys have images of all the units that have been made? It would be easier instead of looking through scraps and going through website.
