Ezekiel Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 [COLOR=SlateGray][CENTER][B]Bunny Cube A[/B][/CENTER] Okay, this idea has been bouncing around in my head for a while now and I?ve been working on it over the last few days. This is obviously a play on Dragon Ball Z, my friend Gary, who is a BIG DBZ fan, came up with this idea a while ago and we both decided to draw a mini manga for the school magazine based on the idea. Now I want to create a comedy role play based on this and this thread is to see what people think about it and if they are interested. This is the storyline I have so far, it?s still in the works so any crit. will be appreciated and taken on board. [CENTER]***[/CENTER] [I]Years have gone by since the last great battle when monsters were used to defeat opponents and great warriors came from around the world to support each other and fight against the common enemy. After many years of fighting, the evil that had encroached upon the world was defeated, but the warriors, afraid that the evil might return, summoned sorcerers to seal away their fallen enemy?s powers?.into the artefacts known to the modern world as?.The Bunny Cubes. Powerful light blue crystals that are heavy to carry and a bugger to fit in your pocket, that hold the secret to world domination inside. No one knows what will happen if the Cubes are reunited, will a wish granting Dragon appear like in the famous TV show, or will something much more sinister reveal itself? There are warriors who have been chosen by the Wise Old Men and, whether they like it or not, they will travel to find the Bunny Cubes as a means of protection against the evil geniuses and zombie wielding madmen of the universe. These people are not willing, they do not believe in the power of Bunnies and they can?t be bothered to get off their sofa! But they are the worlds last hope?.they are the Baka Fighters and they must watch endless re-runs of Dragon Ball Z if they hope to win.[/I] [CENTER]***[/CENTER] Right, like I say, it?s still in the works and if enough people are interested and I get this to the Inn, then the storyline will probably be much better, I hope @.@ with the help from all your comments, of course. So, comments, crit? I?ll be happy with anything ^_^[/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zidargh Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 The basic purpose of a comedy is to induce humor into the audience. Doing so in an RPG is a very difficult thing. Even if you manage to start off with some pretty funny stuff, it will be very hard to maintain. Especially with participants who may have very different sense of humor. Spoofs(Which this RPG appears to be) are also incredibly different. If a participant is not very active or poses little interest, though they take part, it will be easy for them to drift into the world of what the RPG is a parody of, thus causing confusion. If you manage to actually create an RPG while maintaining humor and it lives 'til the end, then hats off to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gelgoog Pilot Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 LOL! I love the idea and your thread starter. However I happen to agree with Zidargh. They have always been difficult to maintain in past comedy RPG's like I have seen but like the current one Apartment building C they can be VERY entertaining. I just love that one. Ok back on track here. my question for you to think about when or if you make this is: How closely do you want this spoof to relate to DBZ? also I suggest making is a requierment of all participants to be knowledgable of the series. As I guess some may be too daft to catch the spoof right away (But Im sure almost everyone has seen DBZ). Those are my thoughts...well some of them I had more but I seem to have forgotten them. Hmmm Well good luck with it. I will say it would be a very interesting one to join up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
