Tales of Brave Ragnor Serial
Return of Johnny Raven
Miscellaneous Audience Participation Serial Ideas:
Time for Station Identification Dirk Freemount, et al...
- a 'Lost' concept, except in a western ghost town. I also think that whatever we do should be a mix of comedy and drama...not too serious, not too funny.
- Survivor: Las Vegas
- Round Robin story, where each of our writers contributes an episode to a serial. Again, we'd have to establish character and setting well enough that the individual episodes wouldn't be too disparate, but we'd still encourage each writer to put his/her individual voice into the piece.
- Yet another exercise: each writer is given the same characters (and possibly
setting) to work with, and perhaps a title, but has to write his/her own version of the story. It would need to be very short so that it wouldn't be too taxing (both for the writers and the audience), but it could clearly show our different styles.
- You are a professor of eldrich studies at Miskatonic U. You must find the one and only way to stop the upcoming end of the world by the advent of Chthulhu. There are many potential pathways that all end with the monsters eating the earth. There is only one successful ending -- involving the death of the protagonist.
And it should be funny.
- -Vigilanteens- A group of super-powered teens that start a supergroup and fight crime. Bad shit happens to them when they realize that they aren't bulletproff. Also teen angst realism and pregancies and the like.
- -Junior Pirates of Gullycove Bay- Kid's piece about a ship full of kid pirates that sail around looting candy. I've been meaning to write this for a while, but haven't gotten to it.
- -Groom of Entropy- Idea I came up this weekend about a man who marries a woman who is almost supernaturally accident proned. Has a powerful ending.
- -Flying Monkey Batallion- About a team of flying monkeys who's mission is to stop apocalypses around the world. Challenge: Getting the voice talent to not go "ook" and "wahahah" constantly.
- -Something Fantasy. Haven't tried fantasy yet.
- -Post apocalypse?
- -Dopplegangagogo- A man has a doppleganger for a rommate.
