Ok, so i was discussing fanfiction with a friend yes, i know and i remembered this shit i used to read some years ago.
http://ppc.wikia.com/wiki/Protectors_of_the_Plot_Continuum
Basically, ultra-dimensional forces that travel through various fanfics to try and uphold each universe cannon.
And now i really want to GM a game like this. There is a lot of potential for episodic adventures and the players can be wathever retarded OC they want to be and fit in the plot. The battle encounters should be hard, since the players would have to fight ridiculously over powered mary sues.
Is this a good idea? Should i bring this up? What system would you use? We just finished an 3 year campaing and we are now gameless and in need of lighthearted fun.
Help me, /tg/, this got me pumped up and i'm already reading a lot of badfics and OC's in deviamt art for plot ideas.

I have no fucking idea, but i'm the only one thinking it would be an awesome fight? An insanely over powered wish fullfilment character with everyone and everything in it's favor, and it's the players mission to put an end to this madness.
Your enemy is pre-teen cringeness given form.

It would be more interesting to see that from the other side, where your group of heroes are just minding their own heroic business when a bunch of people come along and declare that you're an abomination who has to be destroyed because you're causing the universe's "plot" to deviate from the way things "should" go, or you're so unique that your existence shouldn't be tolerated, or because you've been breaking the laws of physics with your powers or something.

It would be a good chance to play up the hypocrisy of the organization.

Stan was the hero, because without the touchest of friends she didn't have total control over all the elements.

Despite the humorous premise, one of the selling points should be the difficulty, having to deal with overpowered mary sues. While I agree that some leniency in the rules should be there in order to make the action advance faster there is a need for some solid stats and tied to them the rules for checks in order to determinate success or failure

...Except thats not how missions work. They are exactly as hard as the plot requires them to be. Depending on how the Forces Of Narrative Continuity were feeling that day, a literal goddess could be steamrolled by interdepartmental cooperation, a depraved sexfic (C*l*br**n) could drive an agent dead from a failed SAN role, a particularly OP harry potter sue (Rose Potter) could kill agents, or a greek novel character recruit (Agent Suicide) could Smite Evil and banish another Goddess!Sue. Agents could be exorcising wraiths (Bad Slash), killing sues (DMS), Fixing geography/ commiting localised exterminatuus / purge with fire (DBG), or ficing timelines.

Meanwhile, on the other end of the scale a couple of agents could easily kill a trio of twilight-verse vampire sues. In the entire original series Jay and Acacia were never in serious danger, while agent Foxglove was almost killed by canonical vermin hordes (redwall carnivores)

legolas by laura was a masterpiece.
>The orcs were striping her naked
I remember the ppc mission had the ironic overpower interpret this as orcs painting her striped.
Said orcs also wiped her, and rapped a song about her. Sauron was so moved he injeted her with posion, and in the finally she married aragorn, leggolas and a baboon. Laura was 7 years old due to bad timelining, and the milkwood forest where she was found wapped in cloth took a full half an hour to walk through. Also, legolas adopted her. :(

>The line between literature and reality becomes increasingly thin, allowing characters in the books and those in 'real life' to jump in and out of novels. This leads Thursday to change the ending of Jane Eyre, the joke being that the plot we know in our reality is the far superior change caused by Thursday. This also happens to other classic novels: Uriah Heep becomes the obsequious, and generally insincere character we know, due to an accident inside the book world, and Thursday's uncle Mycroft becomes Sherlock Holmes's brother.
>Thursday also finds that the characters in novels are self-aware, knowing they are in a book. They make comments stating they are not needed until page 'such and such,' rather like actors in a play, and thus have time to help Thursday.
>The world of fiction has its own police force - Jurisfiction - to ensure that plots in books continue to run smoothly with each reading. Thursday ends up hiding in a book, and working for Jurisfiction.

How has no one brought up the SUE Files (and their infamous Marty Sue) yet?

You can look up "irolledazero" and you'll find a blog about it. It's the most incredible shit.
tl;dr (forgive my fuzzy memory) Batshit GM has a homebrew where stories exist in their own dimensions (including our world, but also existing settings). Special snowflake authors get to make their fiction a reality and are basically godlike in their own universe.
Players work for an organization aiming to literally preserve canon. Meanwhile the DMPC (who's a special brand of special snowflake author) goes around fixing things the DM doesn't like in his favorite stories and amasses an army and a load of superpowers through sheer GM fiat.

Anyway, a few years after the game was over, Tristan (the blog guy) tried to salvage Marty Sue GM's ideas and came up with a pretty cool setting that's very reminiscent of this, and might appeal to >>50177382 a lot.
Basically, every world in the setting exists in someone's dreams. In fact, inhabitants of dreamed-up worlds also have their own dream-worlds (leading into a nested universes sort of thing).
It's possible to travel through dream-scapes and to modify them. Some people try to do so in order to fit their own ideals and fulfill their power fantasies, becoming Mary Sues.
When Mary Sues break the rules of the dream-worlds (otherwise they wouldn't be Mary Sues), the dimension starts to break apart, with eldritch abominations eating at it until nothing's left.
So you've got dream-fixers trying to travel into warped dream landscapes to set things right and defeat the Mary Sue invaders, while not stretching the world's rules too much (otherwise things start to go awry).
Could make for a pretty fun setting, IMO.
