I have a technique I use when writing scenarios that is a lot of fun.
I mix up characters, items, tropes, plot elements, and many other things from various sources and mix them all together, generating a new unique product.
I enjoy tweaking things until they all make sense.

We could do that in this thread, since I didn't find one that interested me tonight.

We need:
Characters
Protagonists
Antagonists
Setting Details
Story Details
Important Items
Important Places
Session Plothook:
Campaign Plothook:

Only limit is that it must be a reference that is known or you can explain in one line if we haven't read that manga.
Perhaps we could do a "posts ending in 9" "Dubs to override" thing? to confirm.

That sounds like literally all of fiction

Well, yeah, okay.
Every piece of fiction could be described that way.
But not every piece of fiction is generated by doing something like sticking the Gunslinger with the Samurai to fight the Dark Knight and crammed into Pulp Sci-Fi.

I just thought it would be fun to try it with a bunch of random sources instead of my own biased brain.
Seeing what sort of monstrosity we could cobble together like a fat guy's plate at a buffet and then making it smooth and synergistic seemed like a /tg/ kind of thing to do.

Just play GURPS or refluff PF.

I see three possibilities:
>1. You replied to the wrong thread.
It happens. No worries.

>2. You skimmed the OP with very, very poor reading comprehension.
Not sure how you managed it, but I guess it's possible.

>3. You have adopted "play GURPS" as a default response to the point of silliness.
When the memes begin to overtake you, it's time to stop posting.

Well I guess you could use Fate instead.

Setting

There is a walled off continent

Plot

The MC is just trying to get home

story details

There was some time travel shinanigans involved in all of this. Somehow.

More details

In fact the main character got pulled from when and where he was supposed to be intentionally by someone.

the antagonist

Is a classless thug.

Protagonist is

A living lie detector, who has a serious weakness for all things cute and cuddly.

There you go, now take that and make it make sense. I'm interested to see if you can.

So it *is* that you're being intentionally obtuse as to the purpose of this thread?

Alrighty then.
Thanks for contributing something, I guess.
