Blackhawk
Blackhawk (Pianki Nu-Shina), rightful heir to the throne of
Shirka, is pitted against Dalgraaf, leader of the
bloodthirsty Amaghal hord. The time frame is thousands of
years after an apocalyptic war destroyed much of technology.
Civilization has returned to seemingly Middle Age level.
However, a secret brotherhood of men from all races has
begun to investigate remnants of ancient technology.
Blackhawk is the leader of the Brotherhood. They have a
strong belief in one God and the supremacy of good, but are
engaged in an arms race with the Amaghal. Dalgraaf of
Lindburg has also discovered some of the old technology, and
is intent on using it to aide in his lust for conquest and
power.
Sub-plot 1: Blackhawk saves the mulato daughter of the
ruler of a city-state in the predominantly white realm of
Mularka. They become involved and he becomes a rival with
her suitor.
Sub-plot 2: Although Blackhawk is rightful heir to the
throne of Shirka, his cousin sits on the throne. He usurped
the throne, and has unwittingly become Dalgraaf's pawn.
Sub-plot 3: The Brotherhood, with their belief in the One
good God is reticent to use some of the technology they have
found for fear of another holocaust. Their beliefs are
diametrically opposed to the rightualistic and bloodthirsty
Cult of Mar.
Sub-plot 4: There is an uncanny connection of sorts
between Blackhawk and his adversary.

Similarity to successful movies: We have developed a rich
history of this world (Like Tolkien's LOTR world of Middle
Earth) including politics, religion, and geography. This
lends itself to internal consistency. There are epic
battles, and will be opportunity for special effects.

You "kind of" have an idea where youre going, but it
needs to be more specific.
