Time Period:
An unspecified time before Gordon Freeman fights through Ravenhom's many horrors.
About:
The story takes place in the small, albeit densly populated town of Ravenholm. You play as Father <first name*> Grigori, the local priest. Ravenholm is a sanctuary for Resistance members, unspoiled by Combine or Xen infestation... As of now... Late one evening, the townspeople hear a disturbance coming from the old mine shafts. The priest goes and investigates along with the citizens, but brings along his trusty shotgun Annabelle, just in case. (He decided that he could never be too safe these days.) There, emerging from the mine shaft's entrance in a frenzy, is a bloodied, battered resistance member battling a Xen headcrab that is clamped onto his face. Cries from the fleeing crowd come from all around, as Father Grigori says a prayer for the man who has no chance of survival. He picks up his weapon, aims at the man's head[crab], closes his eyes, and fires.
Soon after, more and more Xen start to appear around the mines, and the graveyard. Curious citizens stray too close, and are taken away. The mines and graveyard are shut down, as the populus are disappearing faster and faster. After weeks, all that is left is the old priest, who many believed to have gone insane, locking himself in his rectory, and not talking to anyone.
Three weeks after the first Xen appeared in the last safe place in the area, Father Grigori came out and called his congregation.
'. . .People of Ravenhom,' he declared. 'Your judgement day is upon you . . . You will either fall a hero, and fight, or you will fall a coward, and hide. . . What will you choose? It is inevitable that you will die, why not make yourself a hero? . . .'
Gameplay:
Play as Father Grigori, defending Ravenholm and your people. When they are gone, survive as long as possible, to help any and all survivors who still need a safe way out of City 17.
Useable weapons include:
-Father Grigori's specilized shotgun, Annabelle
-A stake gun (pin the zombie invaders to the wall, anyone?)
-Flamethrower
-Dual Berreta Pistols
-Long Rifle
-Sawed-off .8 gauge shotgun
-Magnum revolver
-Chainsaw
-Frag Grenades
-and more
*Nowhere have I seen mention of Grigori's first name.
