ooo — initial idea conception

[ferderga]

The conversation during which this roleplay idea was first conceived.

[4/21/2013 11:31:04 PM] — ORDERGASM: or we could just focus on a single country/kingdom/continent
[4/21/2013 11:31:14 PM] — ORDERGASM: with vague mentions to the other places
[4/21/2013 11:31:27 PM] — ORDERGASM: we could probably even jack gw2's premise for humans actually
[4/21/2013 11:31:50 PM] peedy: yeahhh don't wanna over complicate things
[4/21/2013 11:31:55 PM] — ORDERGASM: chyeahh
[4/21/2013 11:33:14 PM] peedy: what should be our main conflictttt
[4/21/2013 11:34:44 PM] peedy: like usually it's like some bid for power and control or like....political corruption right
[4/21/2013 11:36:55 PM] — ORDERGASM: in gw2 in the beginning it's mainly a bunch of corrupt politicians and ministers in positions of power trying to off the queen
[4/21/2013 11:37:17 PM] peedy: ohhhhhhh wow that sounds intense
[4/21/2013 11:41:24 PM] peedy: andandand maybe like aside from assassination attempts there are some pretty ugly rumors being spread too
[4/21/2013 11:41:35 PM] peedy: like if you can't kill her why don't you just make her resign
[4/21/2013 11:41:39 PM] peedy: or something
[4/21/2013 11:42:08 PM] — ORDERGASM: i was actually thinking that maybe we could have a plot where they /do/ off the queen
[4/21/2013 11:42:17 PM] peedy: ohhhhh
[4/21/2013 11:42:23 PM] — ORDERGASM: so then it's just WIDESPREAD PANDEMONIUM as they try to establish who the fuck gets the throne LMAO
[4/21/2013 11:42:42 PM] — ORDERGASM: because tbh i don't wanna have to rp a queen--- /HIT
[4/21/2013 11:42:51 PM] — ORDERGASM: BUT I DON'T MIND THE IDEA OF RPING SOMEONE MAKING A BID FOR THE THRONE LMAO
[4/21/2013 11:42:55 PM] — ORDERGASM: or someone supporting someone doing so
[4/21/2013 11:43:05 PM] — ORDERGASM: also sorry for my pauses ajskldjzfl doing an sm
[4/21/2013 11:44:05 PM] peedy: ohhhh yeah I LIKE THAT
[4/21/2013 11:44:09 PM] peedy: and that's aightttt
[4/21/2013 11:47:13 PM] — ORDERGASM: maybe we can each rp people with different claims to the throne
[4/21/2013 11:47:33 PM] — ORDERGASM: so at first they're against each other and know about each other but
[4/21/2013 11:48:10 PM] — ORDERGASM: maybe later on they reconcile their differences somehow after discovering some ugly truths about the kingdom hierarchy and decide to ~*~*BAND TOGETHER*~*~ to MAKE THE KINGDOM A BETTER PLACE
[4/21/2013 11:48:24 PM] — ORDERGASM: IT SOUNDS CORNY BUT A LOT OF FANTASY THINGS HAVE THAT KIND OF....HEROIC FEEL LMFAO AJSKDLA
[4/21/2013 11:48:30 PM] — ORDERGASM: LIKE
[4/21/2013 11:48:31 PM] — ORDERGASM: OH OH OH
[4/21/2013 11:48:56 PM] — ORDERGASM: we'll probably have to figure out a system for throne heirs that makes it possible for tons of different people to have a claim to the throne but in any case
[4/21/2013 11:49:00 PM] — ORDERGASM: maybe like
[4/21/2013 11:49:17 PM] — ORDERGASM: everyone kind of expected the queen to get offed because she had /terrible/ pr
[4/21/2013 11:49:21 PM] — ORDERGASM: so everyone hates her and stuff
[4/21/2013 11:49:52 PM] — ORDERGASM: and then she's finally killed and everyone rejoices but then there's this mad scramble for the throne and everyone's trying to fight their way to the top to get to the riches and splendor and everything
[4/21/2013 11:50:15 PM] — ORDERGASM: and then our main characters are two such competitors and initially maybe they have their own reasons for wanting the throne, whether for selfish reasons or honor or glory or whatever
[4/21/2013 11:51:19 PM] — ORDERGASM: but then later on maybe they find out that like....the queen was actually doing a lot of good and holding back some kind of HIGHER FORCE that could OBLITERATE THE KINGDOM IF IT WASN'T HELD BACK and everything said about her was a lie
[4/21/2013 11:52:10 PM | Edited 11:52:26 PM] — ORDERGASM: the court surrounding her and her ministers and such had their own agendas so they wanted her gone so they could take her power and use it for their own gain but they didn't realize that without someone who actually knows how to handle the power THEN THE HIGHER FORCE WILL FUCK EVERYONE'S SHIT
[4/21/2013 11:52:44 PM] — ORDERGASM: so now the queen is dead, her name has been slandered, and everyone hates her, but our characters slowly find out the truth
[4/21/2013 11:53:04 PM] — ORDERGASM: and they set aside their differences and work together to try fighting their way to the top so /they/ can take the power and use it to save the kingdom by holding back the higher force
[4/21/2013 11:53:11 PM] — ORDERGASM: EXCEPT THE PROBLEM IS THAT THEY MUST BRAVE THE TREACHEROUS COURT
[4/21/2013 11:53:23 PM] — ORDERGASM: AND ALSO FIGURE OUT HOW TO WORK THE ARCANE MAGIC THAT IS THE QUEEN'S LEGACY
[4/21/2013 11:53:36 PM] — ORDERGASM: THE PROBLEM IS THAT NO ONE EXCEPT THE QUEEN TRULY KNOWS HOW TO USE IT
[4/21/2013 11:53:40 PM] — ORDERGASM: SO THEY HAVE TO GO ON A JOURNEY
[4/21/2013 11:53:44 PM] — ORDERGASM: AND INTERROGATE MAGES FROM ACROSS THE LAND
[4/21/2013 11:53:47 PM] — ORDERGASM: WITHOUT GETTING KILLED
[4/21/2013 11:53:52 PM] — ORDERGASM: WHILE GETTING GOOD PR FOR THEMSELVES
[4/21/2013 11:53:53 PM] peedy: OH I REALLY LIKE THIS THE WHOLE TRUTH SEEKING THING AND omg that's so cool
[4/21/2013 11:53:55 PM] — ORDERGASM: SO THAT THE COMMONFOLK LIKE THEM
[4/21/2013 11:54:03 PM] — ORDERGASM: AND THEY HAVE TO AVOID THE PLOTS OF THE MINISTERS
[4/21/2013 11:54:07 PM] — ORDERGASM: AND COURT MEMBERS
[4/21/2013 11:54:20 PM] — ORDERGASM: SOME OF WHOM AGREE WITH THEIR IDEA AND SUPPORT THEM AND RALLY BEHIND THEM
[4/21/2013 11:54:25 PM] — ORDERGASM: SOME OF WHOM DON'T GIVE A SHIT
[4/21/2013 11:54:40 PM] — ORDERGASM: SOME OF WHOM WANT THEM TO DESTROY THEM SO THEY CAN'T TAKE THE THRONE AND THE POWER
[4/21/2013 11:54:44 PM] — ORDERGASM: BAAAAAAAAAAAAM
