The concept of Chronicles is similar to the TMW-Adventures concept in some ways (easily made world using existing TMW content) but uses smaller and contained maps with few to no open area maps. A linear storyline moves the character from town to a series of woodland and cave scenarios where the character will battle monsters and humanoids to get the weapons, armor and equipment needed to be able to challenge the next area. The end of the story may involve killing a boss or solving a complex mini-game to prevent the coming of a demi-god on the world, something like that. Once the "end" is completed, the Chronicle is over. For the demo, that is the end of the game. For versions beyond the demo, the character can leave the world and go to a pocket dimension that hosts an Order dedicated to combatting the forces of darkness as they travel throughout time and space. Each new story written for TMW: Chronicles would have a portal linked through this pocket dimension and would play as its own game. Content releases for TMW: Chronicles would be small and fully complete games that might need some bug fixes, but no expansions.

===Promotions: Peak 200 by 2015 Initiative===
Dock workers need simple help around the docks. Travelers tell tales of their travels to the characters, some of which might need assistance.
In addition to development projects, there is the promotions initiative I am attempting to both flesh out and participate in the execution of. Right now we are merely in the brainstorm phase of understanding what we want to do with promotions, my ideas have several points that ultimately hope to lead to: a larger number of content contributions, a larger more permanent development team and a larger player base.


My main goal is to move forward the "Peak 200 by 2015" initiative. This promotional attempt is to find whatever ways possible to drive the number of players on the official server to peak at over 200 real players. I feel to accomplish this task, we may need to:
==Nivalis Mayor Quest==


* Invite volunteers from The Mana World's larger community to participate in the growth of the promotions initiative.
Fight undead beneath Nivalis which threaten the citizens of the snowland village.


* More strongly define guilds and attempt to provide stronger assistance to the creation of guilds, including contributor participation in guilds and/or the guild as a content contribution team. In the past up to today, TMW guilds have a tendency to include developers and we should attempt to encourage this behavior within guilds and guild members.
* Requirements: Level 40, Completed Forest Bow, Forest Armor, Wooden Shield, Fur Boots and Winter Gloves Quests


* Make a database of all media about The Mana World on the wiki.
* Step One: Fight Snowland Lesser Undead, the fallen citizens of Nivalis and miners have become undead, created through the powerful earthquake. Collect drops relevant to the quest.


* Create a "Look Who's Talking About Us" wiki page with links to a large variety of reviews and youtube videos featuring The Mana World. Should include not just a link, but a description of what is included in the video to encourage viewing.
* Step Two: Open a gateway to the Tomb of the Fallen Sage.


* Shut down all old media The Mana World made from before this initiative and create, if possible, a new replacement description. Attempt to make any new descriptions, including user names and passwords, controlled by TMWC so updates can occur more easily. The promotions team would have access to these user names and passwords on an individual use basis.
* Step Three: Fight the Fallen Sage and his Ice Skull Minions. Reward: Key to the City of Nivalis.


* Find out how to incorporate The Mana World as a non-profit and create advertising banners to be placed at approved locations, paid for by donations collected by a TMWC approved Treasurer.
* Step Four: Mayor becomes a daily quest for bringing X number of the drops from the Nivalis Undead for gold and XP.


* Continue steady content updates and add updates about what is going on to the forums to encourage use on the forums. Keep regular wiki updates. Active forums and wiki reflect the activity in the game, though they aren't necessarily the same, they are a way to show the curious that we are both worth playing and contributing to.
==Trapper Quest==


* Attempt to create a promotional alliance with: Aethyra, Whispers of Avalon, Evol Online, Manaplus, Manasource, Invertika and Source of Tales. Find ways to combine promotional efforts to include these other games, to show that we exist in not just a community of players, nor just a community of developers, but also a community of games. We *are* free 2D MMORPGs. We all want help with development. We all want to be played and all share some link to The Mana World. By showing a community of games, I believe a higher overall potential to generate contributions will occur for all games.
