RPG News/Drabbles88
Aug. 10th, 2006 10:11 pmFinally got around to spreading the love on the
bttf community. Maybe some more 1955 roles can be filled now.
-M: I gotta say, why would anyone WANT a 1955 role? It's the guys from 1985 who are having all the 'fun' with the conspiracy.-
Nothing says the 1955ers couldn't get involved with WADOTAT and NIFADOT. It's recently been confirmed in-game that WADOTAT wants to kill Doc (AND his "associates," so that means Marty and maybe Jennifer too) -- perhaps with a lack of 1985 Doc, they'll go after a 1955 version. Might be interesting.
-D: I must admit, I am eager to see what happens next.-
Me too. And before you say anything, I have been doing some editing.
-VD: I saw you typing on "V.D." a bit earlier. So long as you do SOMETHING each day.-
-VD2: Get around to writing the RPG-based drabbles88?-
Yup, I did! Though I borrowed from another fandom as well:
87. Introductions
“It is a world where conspiracy theorists rule the earth! NIFADOT roams the land by day! WADOTAT stalks the night! At twilight, all the good restaurants are full!
“In our last episode -- George McFly, the man who would be an utter wimp if he hadn’t been mysteriously taken over by his Lone Pine counterpart--”
“Just think of me as Clark Kent!”
“--and his wife, the lovely Lorraine, recently recovering from an alcoholic binge--”
“Not so loud, I’ve got a hangover.”
“--have recently left the Lone Pine Mall with an axe and rope, preparing for an attack on the mysterious doorway in the River Road Tunnel! Their previous companion, Jennifer Parker, has returned home for a rest.”
“Hey, I was nearly thrown off Clayton Ravine, and I just fought Biff Tannen. I deserve a rest.”
“Speaking of which, Biff Tannen, George’s previous antagonist, was just beat up by a teenage girl and forcibly ejected from the McFly house!”
“I -- er -- let her win?”
“He’s currently returning to his place of work with a villainous scheme to get his coworker fired.
“Back in 1955, the younger version of George, also a wimp that has been mysteriously taken over by his Lone Pine self, has decided to get his stories back from 1955 Biff, who is still a bully.”
“Hey, I’m just following the advice Goldie Wilson gave me.”
“Of course you are. I recommend you find a teenage girl. But of course no hyperbolic introduction would be complete without mention of our heroes, Marty McFly and Dr. Emmett L. Brown, the world’s first time travelers! They’ve come to 1955 in a time machine ‘Doc’ invented in order to --
“Wait. Dr. Brown invented a time machine?
“Excuse me, duty calls. Spark! I am OTHAR TRYGGVASSEN, and I shall destroy you this night!”
“No! Bad Othar! Bad!” Victoria grabbed Othar Tryggvassen tightly, preventing him from getting at the screen. “Sorry Aaron, looks like we’ll have to go with the Dudley Do-Right Announcer after all.”
It's VERY out of date by this point (five days and 57 pages!), but you get the general gist of it.
-TD: Borrowing OTHAR?-
He was bombastic enough for the announcer role in the radio plays -- or, at least, Cheyenne the colorist was, and he voices Othar in the audio stuff.
-J: I got to beat up Biff Tannen?!-
Yeah, you did. :p
-J2: Suddenly, I'm a hell of a lot more forgiving of Jennifer McFly/Princess Serenity getting my role.-
She's learning how to spell, slowly but surely. Maybe someday she'll learn capitialization as well.
-AJ: Great.-
-M: At least I got Shandy to play me. Though I have to ask, where the hell did he get his fashion sense?-
Shand's a comedy writer, Marty. He does what he thinks is funny. He's sobered up a bit with all the conspiracy talk, though.
-VuM: I do like his nickname for Strickland.-
-D: *snicker* I must admit, so do I.-
As for further going ons in the RPG:
-->Lorraine and George snuck into Hill Valley High and discovered the bunker Mr. Lee of 1955 wanted to stash Doc and Marty. There's a computer in there -- George fed in a disk he found on the other Mr. Lee/Hoggle's body, and got a message basically stating for Hoggle to kill Doc and his friends, steal his time machine, and go about recreating the Omega timeline. They also find a thumblocked door.
-->Lorraine becomes a machete-weilding maniac after they meet up with Luke, scouring the school. Luke should have never made a crack about her drinking habits. She slices off his thumb (they were looking for dead Hoggle), and she and George have escaped to the roof, where they appear to be rekindling their romance.
-->Doc and Marty travel around 2015, initially looking for clothing to blend in. However, Doc can't access his bank account, so instead they decide to try and break into the door they saw earlier in the River Road Tunnel (Luke used it after talking to Doc, Marty, and Jennifer). Doc can't get in via his handy screwdriver, but a mysterious stranger pops up and gives them an access card and some valuable info. Doc and Marty can't use the access card in 2015 (there's now a thumb plate), so they go back to 1955 to check things out.
-->After disabling the DeLorean, they get inside and are now currently checking out a hidden computer with video files on it. One file has information on Doc, the others on NIFADOT, WADOTAT, locations, plans, and the alpha and omega timelines. Things are getting juicy. :D
-OD: Wow.-
-VD2: Parents killed at 19 in this version? Depressing.-
-TD: Let's hope Arthur was nicer than Elias.-
-DW: More conspiracy plot bunnies. Figures.-
Hey, Aaron weaves a good yarn. And tomorrow I can play a bit more with Shandy. Stupid time zone differences.
-VD: *surprised* No Sims?-
Oh, no, I'll be playing the Baines. I just meant I'll be able to stay up later.
-VD: Ah, yes, true.-
Anyway, back to the game, and fan fic writing.
