The Chronicles of Riddick: Journey to the Underverse [M-VL]

I recently saw the film Chronicles of Riddick and it got me thinking of ideas on an RPG based around the aftermath of the film. The idea would be that The elementals have assigned Riddick with the task of journeying to the underverse with a crew of men to destroy the ultimate evil.

At this point the two major characters would be Riddick(of course) and Margo(I think that's how you spell it. He was the first commander of the necromongers). apart from these ideas I don't have any others. Can people give me a hand with this?

[FONT=Palatino Linotype][COLOR=Navy]First, I think you should watch the movie 'Pitch Black'. It's the original movie starring Riddick, and gives you a lot of background. As for characters, you should deffinately include Jack (The girl originally from Pitch Black that wanted to be just like Riddick. She's also seen in TCoR I believe) and possibly one of the bounty hunters still out for Riddick's blood. Though most of them will probably give up since he's taken down the Necromonger leader... anyway, back on the subject.

It's an excellent idea, but you should give some more thought to the plot (ha, it rhymes.) First of all, obeying the elementals is not like Riddick at all. He would probably tell them to shove it where the sun don't shine. You need something that would persuade him to do it. And don't try threatening his life or anybody elses. He'll kill them beofore they can kill him, and he doesn't give a damn about anybody else.

So that leaves you a little stuck. But where there's a will there's a way, so keep thinkin'.

PS: Love Riddick. ^_~[/COLOR][/FONT]

I've seen Pitch Black. It would hard to include Jack/Keira after what happens to her in TCoR. I see your point on how Riddick wouldn't obey the elementals. He always seems to get dragged into things though. That's the way I'll probably do it in the RPG.

[SIZE=1]Interesting, most interesting.

I actually enjoyed [B]Chronicles of Riddick[/B] a heck of a lot more than [B]Pitch Black[/B], there was just something about Pitch Black that seemed very generic in terms of action and horror. If you get the chance, playing through [B]CoR: Escape from Butcher Bay[/B] would also give you some added background information. As for the story itself I'd say Lord Vakko [the Nercomonger Commander] would be the more likely one to journey to the Underverse as opposed to Riddick. In saying that it's your story so write it as you please.[/SIZE]
