Paradise Plot Ideas

Collected Character Devs
Johnny Frost
# His family go and hide in abandoned houses up the Garroch Glen.
# JF will go find them once the coast is clear
# The whole Joe / Tucker thing has to play out
# JF will get involved in that. During this time he is back at Uni
# Hears that Wasp and Ellie are in Bricktown
# Manages to get Ellie out, tries Wiz, but in the end is meh. Gets off with Ellie. Show Wasp's death, unwanted and unloved poor thing.
# Also grabs the two old lads out of Joes clutches and hides them in his flat
# Decides to go north
# Stiffy thinks there is something between him and Ellie, and breaks up with him
# Ellie robs the flat and leaves (we tried to stop her! say the old guys)
# He takes them north, finds his folks and sets up there
# He then befriends a French girl who is part of a bunch of DPs from the north or something. (want a W&P second wife vibe here)
# Finally finds love with Tina! haha, that's plenty!!
Samuel
# Sam does something cowardly. Des dumps him and moves in with Renzo and Cindy
# Later Cindy comes to Sam to say Renzo is dead and Des in the hands of that baddie O’Henry (whoever he is!)
# Sam goes to get her - think up so clever breaking bad style moment where he out thinks the baddies
# Sam and Des seek the shelter of the church somehow
# And its all fine for a while, but TT has his evil stuff going on
# Des falls into the hands of Acton
# … see how we are set by the time we get to here. Either Sam or Randy or both with bump off Acton
Thorman
This is a redemption arc. Key points
# TT goes slowly mad with the power of being a judge
# Tangles with Bacon / Muta - sees the madness there, the killing etc and wants to stop it.
# Acton does something to anger Randy
# Acton does something to anger TT (see notes below)
# TT has Randy (with Nathan's help) bump off Acton
# TT then has them bump off Erica
# Mathew returns!
# TT returns to sanity. Mathew mad at him
... that should get us quite far, see how we get on!
Nimite
Is separate from the "main plot" at the moment, but work it in somehow once he's done all his adventure.
Have it affect everyone in Evermarch
Lorric
#Keep Ray going for now, interlinked Helen stuff
#Later though, when TT starts killing people, Ray tries to stop it
#TT bribes him (Ray can help Helen etc)
#Ray has a word with God. God sorts him out
#Ray goes to warn TT
#TT has gone too far by now and decides to slay Ray (Ray can get wind he's a target - little realising its Randy and Nathan haha - dramatic tension!!!)
#Randy and Nathan won't do it though
#This starts TT turning back to good.
Helen
# By chapter 11, Helen is a sympathetic character to the reader, but her arc is for her to get darkner
# The farm plot is Owen coming back, shoot out with the army etc
# The thing with Melissa and 'that boy' ramps up. Daniel is it?
# Daniel is slain, Helen thinks it was Melissa
# After that though she gets 'saved' by Ray when the time comes and abandons Melissa and Tina
# She's not bothered by Melissa, but abandoning Tina eats away at her
# She does the whole 'I'm a horrible person!' thing with Ray and blames him and herself. Ray has bigger problems.
# OTHER STUFF! :D
# Ray gives her his talk about how she won't be free until she throws off the chains she has put on herself and all that etc
# She finds another man to latch onto. Some poor sucker! Make the reader be biting their knuckles as at first this bloke thinks she's really nice "She's been through so much etc She's so brave"
# Nah mate, she's nuts, say his mates
Jack
# Nathan all fine
# Randy gets him involved in the assassinations (the details of this ties in with Thorman.)
# Nathan not at all happy about it! But it is bad people they are offing and its TT / God's will.
# "Remember what dad said" moment
# Somewhere along the line his path crosses with Des so we can have that moment
# Fred Bacon???
# Their mum knows something is up, just not what it is. Tells them off in a motherly way - not to be home late etc
# They pack in the killing after going after Ray and realising things have gone too far.
