Thread: In depth storytelling and plot developments

Plot ideas I know I was pretty broadbasic with plot lines in the initial post, so here is a couple of starting plot lines that may be interesting. Please note, the himher roles can easily be reversed. These are interesting, but become more interesting when a theme is tied into it, please see theme ideas above. Plot ideas group A Opposites Plot Idea 1 Wrong Side of the Tracks Him - faltering good guy sent on job by bosssuperioretc. Her - fallen good girl in a bad situation Scenario On his jobmissionetc., he comes across her, she is suspect because of her affiliations, they have a physical attraction but struggle because they are on 'opposite' sides, they must figure out how to work together to solve the scenario. Example role pairings Detective and Lounge ownersingerperformer hedge knight and cat purse trying to make a living inter dimensional tax agent and rogue business owner and so on Plot Idea 2 You got your peanut butter in my chocolate Him - represents one group affiliation Her - associated with group that is opposed to his group Scenario Both groups are opposed, but our main characters find each other and arebecome attracted to each other. That is, until they realize they are each from opposed groups. Their groups Example role pairings Two members of opposed royal families, two gang members, one is CIA the other is the FBI, one drives a Ford the other drives a Chevy and the intergalactic tractor pull championships are fast approaching. Plot Idea 3 You must work together! Him - state official Her - private contractor Scenario The true authorityrulerkingpresident has a special mission, both are assigned to work together, but they have conflicting opinions for how this must be accomplished, but than again, they each think the other is attractive. Example pairings Military Officer and Scientist, royal tax adviser and privateer captainship owner, family member of someone important to state and mercenary, one is a ballerina the other is into extreme sports. Plot ideas group B We're on the Same Side Plot Idea 1 We School Together HimHer Same organizationentity Scenario Having some past together, they are coupled on missions to save the organization, its a unison of strengths and weaknesses from each to try and overcome their problems. They must put their minds together to overcome a series of intriguing or action packed delimma, discovering along the way that not only are the similar by way of professionphilosophies, but they're also attracted to each other. Example pairings Both are special agents, both went to same school of magic, both are knights, both are rogues, both are zookeepers. Plot Idea 2 Same Side, Different Representation Him knowledge based profession Her physical based profession Scenario Both are associated under the same parent organization same government, same school, same king, etc. but work in different areas. They know of each other but don't spend much time together, until they are assigned to work together. They each think things should be done their way, but they must figure out how to make a new way, that involves both their strengths. Example roles Knight and Wizard, police officer and criminologist, scientist and mercenary, accountant and trash collector Plot Idea 3 Secret Allies Him works for public group Her works for secret unknown group but for the same cause as the public group Scenario A problem arises that couples the public group with its secret affiliated group. They never knew about each other and now must work together somehow. Example Pairings Scientist and Area 51 Scientist, Werewolf and Vampire both groups guardians of humankind against greater darkness, King's Guard and Queen's Handmaiden's which is really an intelligence agency for the kingqueen. Plot Summary Each above plot line represents a basic starting point, but I'm looking for long term RP. I imagine each story is some series of unfortunate events that can lead up to a big earth shattering concept. Such concepts could be things like aliens invade and are turned back, evil fae overlord is invading humanity and must be stopped, the evil tyrannical armies are taking over the world and must be stopped. I guess I'm basically saying that while the earth shattering concepts can be fun, I want the longevity of seeing how the characters interact over time, so should start with smaller scale 'bad' things.
