◈ Some Ideas ◈

Here is where I leave random concepts and ideas I have. Some are original, some are inspired by/based on other stories I've seen in media. I update this whenever I think of something new.
If you see an idea you like, let me know and we can play around with it. I've left the ideas and characters open-ended so that those blanks can be filled in during RP-planning.

《────────────────────────────»◈«────────────────────────────》


Sentient AI
Sci-Fi ◈ High-tech ◈ Action ◈ Space travel

The RP revolves around a character who is human (or similar), and a sentient AI who controls a large facility or starship.

➤ Plot ideas
⬩ Character A is an AI who controls the security systems of a facility in which Character B is imprisoned. They both desire freedom and decide to assist each other in escaping.
⬩ Character B finds an abandoned military/research facility. Inside, they discover Character A, an AI within the facility that went rogue and killed all the previous occupants. Character B escapes with Character A before the facility's owners can retake it.
⬩ Character B finds themselves as the sole crew member of a massive starship. Luckily, the ship interface and systems are controlled by Character A, a rudimentary AI who seems invested in Character B's survival.


The Great Beast
Fantasy ◈ High or low-magic ◈ Investigation ◈ Occult

A terrifying creature that sounds straight out of a fable plagues a small town. As smart as it is deadly, it's going to take quite the hunt to track it down. But, one should be careful to not let themselves get distracted; there may be more to this village than meets the eye.

➤ Plot ideas
⬩ Character A is a renowned investigator summoned to a small town to open an inquiry into a series of strange deaths. Assuming some mythical creature to be behind the killings, Character A contracts Character B, an expert hunter, to assist them in taking the beast down.
⬩ Character A is summoned to a small town to open an inquiry into a series of strange deaths. During their investigation, they discover Character B, a villager who is insistent that the monster is just a distraction and that there's a greater plot at play.
⬩ Character A is investigating a series of strange deaths in a small town, when they discover Character B who knows (or, perhaps, is) the creature behind the attacks. Whether or not Character B intended for the attacks to occur, and whether or not Character A will assist them or continue to hunt them is to be seen...


The Soothsayer
Fantasy ◈ Low magic ◈ Gifted child

This concept revolves around a character gifted with the ability to premonish events, seeing them before they occur. This character potentially doesn't know why they have this ability or how to properly control it.

➤ Plot ideas
⬩ Character A uses their ability to divine the future to help out their hometown. When a plague begins to sweep across the land, the town demands Character A change fate to save the town. When Character A cannot, the town becomes hostile towards them, and Character B jumps in to save Character A from an angry mob. Both flee the town together.
⬩ Character B is a mercenary hired by a king to capture Character A, so that the king can force Character A to look into the future and tell him how to win wars.


Space Raiders
Sci-Fi ◈ Space travel ◈ Action ◈ Goodies vs baddies

Vigilantes, mercenaries, pirates. There's something supremely satisfying about gallivanting through space, dodging the law, and blowing things up. It's certainly not an original concept, but you don't always need to be original to be fun.

➤ Plot ideas
⬩ Characters A and B are crewmembers aboard a ship of notorious infamy. Perhaps a pirate ship robbing corporate vessels, or a rebel ship fighting governments. One character is probably the captain, the other a first mate. A very flexible plot idea.
⬩ Character A is a member of a law enforcement agency, or perhaps a paid mercenary, who succeeds in capturing Character B, a notorious criminal. It certainly would be a shame if something terrible happened to Character A's transport ship on the way home, forcing both characters to put aside their differences and work together...


Ancient Ruins
Fantasy ◈ High magic ◈ Action ◈ Mystery

In a fantasy world, the ruins of a mysterious, and powerful ancient civilisation have been uncovered. With rumours of fascinating knowledge, arcane power, and tantalizing wealth, myriad people journey to the ruins, all hunting their own prize.

➤ Plot ideas
⬩ Character A is a researcher who journeys to the ruins to study the civilisation. There, they encounter Character B, a tomb robber who previously triggered a trap, cursing themselves or releasing some powerful malevolence. Character B bribes/threatens Character A into helping them fix the problem.
⬩ Character A journeys to the ruins for their own reasons. There, they release Character B, an entity trapped within the ruins. Character A and B must escape enemies who want to harness Character B's power for their own gain.
