    Four ex-convicts are permanently turned into magical girls* by a wizard, they must work together to kill all the wizards in the world until they find the one that turned them into magical girls*.

    *by magical girl i mean giving them silly little wands and cute outfits, not literally being turned into a little girl with powers, that'd be creepy.

    The main character has a medical condition where he continually thrusts his pelvis back and forth ALL DAY EVERY DAY. How would he cope in normal life?

    One day you wake up and find your agenda replaced with someone else's, and even worse is he's late for a meeting! Will you go in his stead?

    You are the best damn chef in the entire city. However, you have grown bored, and have decided to quest for the seven legendary ingredients, and use them to make the glorious SEPTUPLE DECKER GODWICH, the taste of which is said to be complex enough to grant a complete understanding of the workings of the universe. But you are not the only one on this quest, and there are those who would rather not see the GODWICH made. All your culinary skills will be pushed to their limit as you solve puzzles, have cooking duels, and vanquish enemies.

    Idea!
    -You are a Generic Slime Monster. You live an a undiscovered cavern in a RPG Cliche in the beginning. Your allies consist of none, and you are destined to become the destroyer of the universe from both your Pale yellow color, and Mitosis abilities!

    Or...

    -You are the Trainman. Your life is a depressing mess... Or Train-wreck, you suppose. Despite being loved by all, even the most heartless and cruel, you have two problems. One is that you cannot remember anything for over a span of 5 minutes, except for one thing, which is always the fact that you are a failure, and you must find a way to redeem yourself.
    ...Oh yeah. And your stuck on the top of a mountain. Seriously, how did you get up there? ...Geez.
    In this Spoiler is my dark collection of black magic, Opening it releases the forces of light and dar- ...You misclicked on it didn't you.

    Cities are actually living things but nobody knows this. How are they born? How do they mate?

    Probably because it would be awfully hard to measure up to Pratchett's writing. (Although the same is certainly true with Hussie's, come to think of it.)

    Re: Adventure Plots Up For Grabs

    This isn't strictly my idea, but a battle set in the second round of Grand Battle G1 S3 would be pretty cool.
    Not necessarily including any of the stuff we tacked on but just the general fun involved with an adventure about a soldier with a forced revolving door alignment. Possibly about the MOST LOYAL SOLDIER ever or something.

    Re: Adventure Plots Up For Grabs

    Well somebody did try an adventure based on Good Omens a while back, and captured the a 50-50 split in tone between it and Homestuck pretty darn well. Didn't get far I don't think.
    My adventures and writing here:
    Current: Today is your day (Aisleventure)
    Completed: Aisleventure: Make a contract with me and become a magical girl!
    Abandonned: Cursed, Trust me, Trust Me: Reboot, Troll Ender's Game: Shadow of the CULLSAT parts 1 and 2, Leave Me Alone!.

    1. Zoids: ORIGINS - A fanventure for an old show that should have become huge.
    You are a young, aspiring ZOID PILOT. To be precise, you are 22. You do not have your own Zoid yet and would like to get one, unfortunately your savings are just shy of the limit needed to get one.

    2. DJ Pantheris - The Harmony Forumventure
    You are a panther anthro robot who likes making beats drop like waterfalls. You are not expecting an alien invasion to threaten your very existance as well as the fate of the entire universe anyway. You are currently trapped within The Land Of Sound and Robotica. (Sburb-like adventure.)

    My handle is djPantheris and I am subject to random bouts of grooving the hell out.
    And this is his ADVENTURE!

    Re: Adventure Plots Up For Grabs

    The cast of Candle Cove play a wacky and hilarious game of SBURB / have an adventure that has nothing to do with SBURB?




    Pictured: The Banana King, Pirate Percy, Horace, and the Laughingstock.

    (Yes, I am using adapted versions of these sprites in my 'venture, but I still think a vanilla Candle Cove FA could go really far!)

    Re: Adventure Plots Up For Grabs

    An addendum on the above adventure: All the panels are gifs of static, with minimal but evocative descriptions. Those "in the know" play along with the fiction that there are actually panels, and indeed the descriptions are used of commands as a sort (not overtly, of course).

    e: I suppose this ruins the point of having pre-prepared sprites...but it seemed like an interesting enough conceit to mention.

    Have another!

    Regard Kingdom.



    Leyklun, the Twilight Kingdom, is the third of the kingdoms in the Insipisphere. It is a place of uneasy peace, vampires, and shopping catalogues. Lurking in the Furthest Ring that encircles Skaia, it only becomes an important part of SBURB if players make it so - by seeking its obscure help. However, this assistance is a double-edged sword, coming at a grave price.

    e: I'm not sure if this is easy to execute when using sprites, though?
    Psst, look at the Laughingstock for ten seconds.

    Re: Adventure Plots Up For Grabs

    Derp here's an idea.

    Three worlds exist in tandem, each world connected to the other via works of fiction, each world leading to another in a triangle fashion (1 > 2 > 3 >1). The worlds are unaware that the others exist...until a malevolent force seeks to cause destruction of the cataclysmic variety (as if there were any other.) It is up to random people from these three worlds to work together, and save the very nature of Reality itself.

    Re: Adventure Plots Up For Grabs

    I fear this may be too late for the current U4G contest, but here goes...

    Two days ago, I got bored and decided to read through some webcomics I had bookmarked for later archive binging. This led me to read this comic, which reminded me of an old (season 1 old) idea I've been sitting on in the most awesome way possible.

    GameBusters
    Basically, this would work in a manner very similar to a combination of the above comic's concept (but applied to all games, and can cover oddities as well) and a format similar to AskQuest (though do get permission from Bluddo first, I haven't had a chance to ask him yet). Each "act" would represent a "live-streamed" episode, which the "viewers" respond to and suggest stuff using the "streaming site"s commenting system.
    For art, I know I can't ask much when I myself can't draw to save my life, but it would ideally have art that captures the feel of each video game the GameBusters visit.
    For the GameBusters themselves, I would appreciate if they were as close as possible to their real-life counterparts in personality and looks, and the general format of each act would be either like the general format of how an individual myth is covered, or an entire show. Oh, and build team is entirely optional.
    The Many Worlds Experiment is over. Sorry everyone.

    Dentists, as we all know, give people crowns if they're needed.

    Somehow, one guy goes into his dentist's office as an ordinary middle-class man... and walks out a king.

    You are a person living inside a giant clockwork mechanism that seems to go on forever. You have never met another sentient being, although you have been cared for by the clockwork itself to serve its purposes. One day, nothing special happens. You do not meet another human. You do not find out your destiny. Just eat, learn, train, sleep. And you are FUCKING SICK OF IT! You are no machine, you do not have the patience of one, and you WILL find the answers you desire, even if you have to tear apart the entire machine to do it!

    Re: Adventure Plots Up For Grabs

    If you don't mind, I think I'd like to start the Candle Cove adventure as a Round Robin in the Collab/Roleplay board. I love the idea, but if there's one thing I've learned about Calvinball-style idea it's that it's way more fun when everybody can play on equal footing.
    My adventures and writing here:
    Current: Today is your day (Aisleventure)
    Completed: Aisleventure: Make a contract with me and become a magical girl!

    Sure thing. Are you going with the static-updates or the imagified updates? Or a combination of both?

    Also, could you point me out to the thread when you make it?
