Write A Plot From The Title (Writing Game)

Go To

If you're familiar with Contextualize/Whamise This Line, then you may know how this will work. However, instead of a line, you must write a plot/synopsis based off a title from a work in a "Poster above you" format. For example...

Troper A: Soul Surfer

Troper B: Soul Surfer is a cyberpunk action film about a man who has the unique ability to go into the bodies of other people, and must do this to clear his name for a crime he hasn't committed.

Something like that. I'm just hoping I'm being concise enough. Alright, let's begin.

[up]In the not-to-distant future, a group of brilliant scientists, philosophers, and engineers; disillusioned with the wanton disorder and debauchery of humanity; sought to create their own perfect world of perfect order, where none suffered, and everyone new their place. They built a massive generational starship, aptly named Paradise, and leave Earth.

A little over two centuries later, their tiny society is flourishing, and the memories of a babaric, crowded, noisy Earth fade into myth. Until......

They encounter a caravan of nomads, the survivors from an alliance of a dozen worlds, all destroyed by an evil menace. And the evil force's next target.....Earth.

Not wanting to disturb their blissful happy little existence, the residents of the Paradise wish to continue on their way. But their basic humanity and long dormant loyalty to their home planet is too much. Leading a ragtag fleet of aliens searching for a home, they return to save theirs.

Infinite Stratos

#315: Jun 11th 2013 at 12:56:04 PM

A superhero comic book. Stratos, originally a Vandal Savage expy gets a major retool and his own series after a companywide continuity reboot.

The new Stratos is a criminal in very near future, who gets to have some new weapon technology tested on him in place of being executed. Instead of killing him, it sends him to the very beginning of the universe, which somehow makes him immortal (Jack Harkness style). Drifting in space for millenia he has a lot of time to rethink his life. When he finally ends up on earth (together with or as the meteor that wiped out the dinosaurs) he has become the atoner and, when humanity finally emerges, becomes a wandering antihero.

The series proper starts in present day, specifically, the day Stratos was born. Odd numbered issues deal with Stratos trying to decide if he wants to prevent his past mistakes and pondering the possible consequences of doing so (he has no idea haw time travel works in this universe), while simultaneously discovering strange new things about his past and an ancient conspiracy, while the even numbered ones are seemingly unrelated on-offs about his adventures through the history that actually provide a lot of hints about main story arch.
