Write my story

[Marked 197]

Hi all,

 

Times are changing in the RPG Maker scene, and I've been idle for a wee bit too long now. Something just doesn't fit with developing a website for an engine I have barely spent 10 minutes in.

 

SO, I want YOU to write a story for me, for my RPG Maker VX game. This way I will be forced to learn the engine, where I may otherwise not be motivated to do so.

 

What I need you guys to do is post themes, character files, plots, etc. No matter how small or long. Just excrete those creative juices, in post form. Try to make them consistent with the posts above yours, and watch as I bring your ideas to life.

 

I hope this breaks the recent seemingly contagious outbreak of writers block on RMXPUnlimited. :)

Bumping Marked's topic.

[Tomo2000 60]

... Stupid Writer's Block. I would definately post an idea for a story if I could think of one.

[Marked 197]

Your writers block musts be pretty bad huh? Have you got at least a character name in you? :rolleyes:

[Leon 55]

How about a group of four generic characters that go on a series of quests; almost like episodes of a show?

 

Make it so cliche, so generic, that it would be hilarious.

Off Topic

 

2 people posted so far......sometimes the members here remind me of members at Creation Asylum....Just hanging out.... <_<

[Marked 197]

Yes Hebi perhaps you are correct, but that discussion is for another topic.

 

I like your idea Leon, it's a good starting point for the topic. Can anyone build on that?

Okay, let's see what we can come up with here...

 

A middle aged knight who participated in the invasion of a country 15 years ago and has since settled down with an alloted piece of land as a Landed Baron (like the Normans in the aftermath of the 1066 invasion of England) has his daughter kidnapped by a group of rebels. The rebels are former native noblemen of the country, united under the banner of the prince who is the surviving heir of the dead defeated King, who was slain by the protagonist 15 years ago.

 

After an arduous quest to track them down and find his daughter, aided by his trusty comic foil sidekick, a wisecracking travelling bard (and theif), the Knight is horrified to discover from news on his travels that his daughter actually eloped by choice, and has since married the prince!

 

The prince and the Knight's daughter march on the Capital with an army of rebel soldiers, mercenaries, displaced nobles and angry peasants. Their aim; to kill the usurper King! The Knight's master and friend. He rushes to the capital to bring the news to the King, but on reaching the palace and giving the bad news, is thrown in prison because he is father to the rebel prince's wife. He is beaten and humiliated and told that his daughter will be hung, drawn and quartered when the King's army reaches the rebels. He has an ace up his sleeve; mages who can cast destructive battle magic, while the natives only have access to simple healing spells and stuff.

 

In the gaol, he meets a notorious murderess, a sorceress accused of crimes aparently caused by the King himself to stir up unrest and cause a battle so that he can beat down the unruly peasants and finalyl destroy the royal line of that country. She has sworn revenge. The bard springs them out of prison and they go to find the King, sneaking into the back of his camp. The King makes a run for it, and the team must fight through a bunch of guards and mages. Finally, they confront the King and, with help from the young prince, defeat him!

 

um...well, it's not terrible for something I made up as I went along. Hahaha. Feel free to apply some artistic liscence and play with the setting details, add in stuff to happen along the way during the journey, etc.

O_o

 

 

At first I was like okay...but then married... I like it could make something of it.

[ShinkuAura 15]

Well i have a story.

 

In a War Between Evil and Good there lived a family a Wife and a Husband, the man was a Solider from the old times he could use his spear to hunt a turkey or any other animal.

 

One day a Private letter comes to the husband and starts reading it the letter was telling him to go to the Actual War if he didn't his benefits of a civilian would be in danger and he would start being tortured. so the man tells his wife about the incedent and the wife started to beg him not to leave millons and millons died. he had no choice torture would hurt his loving wife and left with his friend.

 

After the Husband left the wife started crying for hours and hours until then a woman started to knock on her door and open it was her friend and the wife let her come in. the woman started to see why was she crying. the wife told her his husband left and she was left pregnet the boy would never know his father because the wife fears that the husband would die.

after 7 months an old man walks on a rainy day and suddenly hears a baby crying and crying. the man thought that his mom left him in the broken down house the old man knocked and knocked the old man was getting impacient and looked thourgh a window the baby hasen't stop crying and then the old man slammed the door hears the baby cry again! he goes upstairs and finds a crib and with a baby in it the old man couldn't leave the baby out in the cold so the old man took him.

 

20 Years Later. the war for good and evil had finished when the baby boy was born tho the baby boy was now a young adult training the arts of combat the old man sensed his death and he would tell him that he is not his real father when he was getting raised.

the old man tells his son "Zack" that his Whole life has been a lie and in 2 months the old man dies leaving zack as a fully train warrior.

 

in a dark and hot place an evil minon walks to a shine and starts to say strange words and then resurected a evil dark energy the dark enemy thanks the minon for resurecting him and suddently kills him for energy the dark enemies walks to find a town

 

After that Zack was thinking something fast to get money for house supplies and goes of to a town to get a Job when he gets to a town

and finds a recruitment poster and gets the job, he guards the castle gates when the dark enemie sees a castle he attacks the guards and kills them for energy and leaves the castle.

 

after hours of guarding Zack sees a Dark Energy on a man an relise that he was going to attack. the dark enemie attacks a solider and kills him then he sees zack and trys to kill him but fails becuase zack knew he was going to get attacked the dark lord attacks again and hits zack critaly and faints. the dark lord says he is luckey to be alive. and overall kills most of the guards for energy, leaving zack alive.

 

zack wakes up in a cabin with a Young woman about his age. her name is Kate she is a healer and tells zack that he was in a 3 day coma.

kate says that a evil force was forming And he already destroyed 18 villages in 48 hours.

he goes to dungens (just like Zelda X3) and finds the jewel he confronts the dark enemy. but fails and the dark enemy tells he is a fool and leaves him there to die zack wakes up and thinks to relive the jewels and goes to 7 Places mountins,volcano,ocean,deserts,sky,underwater,forests. and relives the jewels with twice the power and confronts the dark enemy one last time and zacks recovers peace to the land.

The End (Note the Story is more longer just shorten it it's like 1/4 of the story.)

Marked hasn't come back with a yea or nay, so I think I'll throw mine out.

 

This is an ancient story that's been floating in my head forever, and as much as I'd like to see it made into a game I don't know that I have the wherewithal to do it - and anyway I've got enough stories on my plate at the moment.

 

In a fantasy world, you are the eeeeeevil general of the Big Bad's army. You are tall. You are dark. You are strong. You are feared throughout the lands.

 

Through recent adventures, you have come into possession of a sword. Not just any sword - the Legendary Sword, said to have the power to bring light to the world. (In fact, the first bit of the game could be the mission where you obtain the sword.) Prophecy has it that this sword is the only thing that can destroy the Big Bad, and will do so if it falls into the hands of a certain blue-haired boy from a tiny village in the middle of nowhere.

 

How it works: The sword works to channel a great power, which is currently sealed in a cave on top of a mystical mountain in a fortress built long ago by a holy order of knights. The power can be taken by anyone, and depending on who absorbs it, can be used for good or evil. It is your job to take the sword to the mountain, get it powered up, and return it to your boss. This will of course involve an epic journey across forests, swamps, hills, mountains, and anything else that seems interesting enough. Along the way, you will repeatedly encounter the hero, who attempts to attack you and take the sword. You must fend him off.

 

HOWEVER...

 

Something happens which neither your boss nor the hero anticipated. Something which the prophecies have not foretold. As you travel on your journey, the sword in your possession, you begin to feel things - to hear whispers, seemingly from this magical weapon. It speaks of evil things and urges you to fight them - to turn to the side of good and save the world from imminent destruction.

 

By the time you make it to the mountain, you may be lost altogether...

 

Your party members consist of three generic minions whom your boss has sent along for protection. The hero's party grows as the game proceeds, starting with just the hero and adding his girlfriend, a less-than-intelligent bruiser, a cute but underappreciated female nerd, and/or a mysterious and beautiful (male) stranger. When you finally confront the hero at the mountain, he makes an impassioned speech about goodness and love and friendship, at which point it is your job to skoosh him.

 

Of course, at this point it doesn't matter, because you have been corrupted by the goodness of the sword and are doomed to save the world anyway.

 

There's not a lot of fleshing-out to it yet. If anybody wants to work with the story I'll be happy to add some more detail.

 

Edit: Here's a little more detail I thought of.

 

Firstly, since everything's all bizarro 'n' stuff, you don't go through any Mountains of Despair or anything. Your party gets to traverse the Perfectly Innocuous Swamp and A Rather Nice Forest. Monster encounters are more or less the same, but instead of fighting minions of the villain you fight would-be heroes.

 

The hero's party consists of the following characters:

 

(Hero): A blue-haired sword-wielding teenager from a tiny village (as mentioned above). You get to name him at the start of the game, just to throw the player off.

Liana: The hero's beautiful, spunky white-mage girlfriend.

Duk: A beefy guy who fights with his fits.

Mia: A cute, brilliant girl who fights using robots and mechanical equipment.

Django: A mysterious stranger who replaces Mia later. When you ask the hero what happened to his party, he'll tell you that he kicked Mia out because Django has better spells.

 

The hero is someone who comes across as a really arrogant and jerky guy. He's going to save the world, by golly, and no one's going to stand in his way - not even you. (It's quite possible that after you charge the sword and turn good, the hero attacks you anyway because he's convinced that it's HIS destiny to save the world.)

I'll send him a PM to look at this topic.

[Dark_maiden 0]

Hey if you want i can help with call writting tips and tricks to organize your game?

oh hees an idea zombie invasion * :rolleyes: fantsy style

[Marked 197]

Zombie invasion? You should contact Tomo2000 :yes:

 

This topic is just for generating ideas for the storyline. I was hoping for each member to build on the last members idea, and hopefully end up with something usable for a decent storyline.

 

I will be making the game in VX to properly learn the program. Thanks for everyones suggestions so far :)

[Kiriashi 117]

Oh snap I totally missed this. I have an idea for the start of a story; I'll work on it a bit and post it here. ;)

[madanchi 18]

jees, if I knew of this topic sooner, for some reason I just missed it XD I'm literally always coming up with ideas on story lines, scenes etc all day from all sorts of tiny bits that give me inspiration - I swear I have no limit

 

ok I'll make each one very brief, mainly because I'm thinking all this on the spot now - i never really plan story lines XD or i just build as i go

 

 

- Blood Lines-

Play your way through this horror and sadistic life line. You have the ability to see a flash of 5 seconds or so into the future allowing the player to have an advantage of escape/ attack plan. You don't have continues, only one HP abr, health can be healed throughout the game. The player is the only one who can see these monsters/ enemies. Yes the title is specific - think what blood line means in relation terms, like family etc

 

You can build around the fact of how the player is able to have this ability?, how has all the horror happened?, why are the enemies attarcted to the player more than others? etc. Me being me, I'd come up with something like - When the player was a baby, an enemy (key bossy character) mixed his demonic blood with the babies blood flow - why?)

 

- Droplets -

Collect droplets of loose spirit to form greater powers (skill, magic or powers like telekenesis, mind reading etc), intelligence (puzzle solving) and speed etc These droplets are common but humans (or some other race) aren't able to take a great deal or it can become deadly, but you don't have this restriction, your player has the ability to take as much as he/ she wants (this being the focal point)

[FranklinX 37]

You should make a community game with VX.

 

Here is the story!

 

Unlimited was a peaceful community with a group of good members. However one day Marked's account was hacked. Everyone in the community is pointing fingers! Everyone then noticed the guy named RATED-RKOFRANKLIN, the guy with the worst rep in all of the RM community. They blamed him and he was arrested. However did he hacked Marked account? Kiriashi decides to look at this case further. Things begin to get worse with evil members invading Unlimited with the power of Marked's account! RATED-RKOFRANKLIN gets more charges now! Will Kiriashi and the community be able to get to the bottom of this?

[Joko 1]

But kiriashi was to busy hiding in Joko's closet so it was up to joey and the rest of the community to save the day.

[madanchi 18]

tbh, I actually quite like my idea of the 5 second future sight, think I'll use it for something in my game

[Siverix 4]

I have an idea how about you are a mechanic who creates mechs and you can disaseble them and asemble new ones you go to fighting tournaments win rare parts and fight for title of master mechanic
