A Silly Story Prompt (#1?)

A mad Scientist/Super Villain who's plan for world domination is to decrease/move/get rid of a lot of the greenhouse gases, bringing the earth back closer to an ice age-like environment. They, having planned ahead, had already created a safe haven against cold temperatures and had already recruited those looking for that as henchmen.

Well... That WAS the plan.

They are thwarted by Global-warming.

(Bonus Points if they are praised a hero for the work they've done reversing the effects of global warming and providing homes for the homeless.)

If I see one more “I’m sick of all the references and appearances from old campaigns” NO THIS IS THE POINT OF IT. IT IS A GAME. THE PLAYERS ARE HAVING FUN. TRAVIS STARTED TEARING UP SEEING GROG. LIAM GOT TO DECORATE CALEB’S HOUSE. LAURA GOT TO PUT DICKS IN IT. THIS IS WHAT ITS ALL ABOUT. IT’S THE 8 (9) OF THEM PLAYING A GAME. AND WE GET TO ENJOY IT TOO. WE GET TO FREAK OUT WHEN THE HOT BOI IS ON SCREEN OR THE GIANT UNDEAD TITAN IS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CITY. How are people not enjoying this why do you watch a homebrewed world if you don’t love to see all of the effects that the players have had on this world that was made by and for them

You know, we really should be figuring out what Martyn's winner title thing is by seeing if any of the options fit non-winners better. Process of elimination and all that.

Day 3 of @teamranchersweek, platonic ranchers! Not much energy today so just a little comic instead.

For the record I think Tango would approve of Jimmy lying through his teeth to save his skin, but I also think it would be really funny if he was being 100% honest and no one believed him.

IV DONE IT

I know my science sides been kinda dead but I was getting so frustrated trying to differentiate all artistes 'avians'

...that's it, please use freely and don't feel the need to credit me, JUST USE.

It'll be fun to see arrests look at their avian OCS and going *That's you bud! See?*

Adding this because I forgor

Definately gonna do this for my characters to get inside their heads!!

So my problem with most ‘get to know your character’ questioneers is that they’re full of questions that just aren’t that important (what color eyes do they have) too hard to answer right away (what is their greatest fear) or are just impossible to answer (what is their favorite movie.)  Like no one has one single favorite movie. And even if they do the answer changes.

If I’m doing this exercise, I want 7-10 questions to get the character feeling real in my head. So I thought I’d share the ones that get me (and my students) good results: 

What is the character’s go-to drink order? (this one gets into how do they like to be publicly perceived, because there is always some level of theatricality to ordering drinks at a bar/resturant)

What is their grooming routine? (how do they treat themselves in private)

What was their most expensive purchase/where does their disposable income go? (Gets you thinking about socio-economic class, values, and how they spend their leisure time)

Do they have any scars or tattoos? (good way to get into literal backstory) 

What was the last time they cried, and under what circumstances? (Good way to get some *emotional* backstory in.) 

Are they an oldest, middle, youngest or only child? (This one might be a me thing, because I LOVE writing/reading about family dynamics, but knowing what kinds of things were ‘normal’ for them growing up is important.)

Describe the shoes they’re wearing. (This is a big catch all, gets into money, taste, practicality, level of wear, level of repair, literally what kind of shoes they require to live their life.)

Describe the place where they sleep. (ie what does their safe space look like. How much (or how little) care / decoration / personal touch goes into it.)

What is their favorite holiday? (How do they relate to their culture/outside world. Also fun is least favorite holiday.) 

What objects do they always carry around with them? (What do they need for their normal, day-to-day routine? What does ‘normal’ even look like for them.) 

I wanna write something, but like, lazily.

Something I can put on the internet without my brain going "You could have sold that and made money" you know?
