In MapleStory DS, the story progresses from the anti-social and imaginative child character, Luddy, to an adult character, Drelle, to the more serious and business-like adult character, Precious, to the health-conscious and creative child character, Drelle2, to the magical, world-changing child character, MapleStory. With various characters and recipes, players journey through the game's various levels, trying to find and create their own stories. The player's success in story creation and distribution means with the help of the game's many characters and recipes, the developers can hope to save the world from the destructive power of the energy Drink.
