Not a story idea, just a fun thought for a scene. Luke Skywalker, while rummaging through Kenobi's hut for Lightsaber parts comes across an acient Holocron detailing the adventures of Commander Shepard. More importantly it explains ancient force techniques like Stasis, Biotic charge and Nova.

Fastforward to the death star 2. The emperor arrogantly believes that he's safe as he frees Luke from his bindings. Luke Immediatly hits him with a stasis bubble before using a Nova to knock away Vader and the Crimson guard. Since he's unarmed, his recharge rate is fast enough that he immediatly Biotic charges the Emperor causing an explosion, then finishes the Bastard off with a Nova centered on his head.

Now, where to go from there....?

Just a random idea.

What if, upon having the party heap the blame on him for that certain event in Tales of the Abyss, Luke realized that they COULD have prevented it all if only they had just taken the time to goddamn TALK to him, and decided to say "Fuck you all, this is your fault as much as mine, if not more; I'm going my own way, you can jump off a cliff"?

Because really... I can understand Jade not even trying to talk about it, because Jade is a troll... but the rest of the party HAD KNOWLEDGE THAT COULD HAVE PREVENTED THAT MESS. But no, they kept quiet... and then promptly blame Luke for, understandably, trusting the closest man to a father he's ever had. What the flying fuck, party?!
You're not supposed to notice that, Luke is wrong and deserves the punishment he gets which leads to the character development, so say the writers.
If it is dumb, I call it dumb. >_>

Meanwhile my post where I actually play around with the idea and how things could go from there gets ignored :(

I feel ya. Everything I type here is just thrust deep into the anals of TFF, giving us the shaft and failing to keep us abreast. Cunt you understand that by now?

TL;DR: We're screwed.

Sorry about that, I have some serious problems with my intestine, and am a little distracted.

I read it now, and it's a good one. One thing, though - Anise most likely knew at least SOMETHING, given how close to Ion she tended to be most of the time.

Wasn't the emperor trying to goad him into killing him anyways? even if he died, it would just mean that Luke became a sith lord, with Vader replacing Palpitane.

ya have to understand two things.

One) by turning Luke he would have truly ended the Jedi for all time.

Two) He'd learned to transfer his consciousness on death to another clone body, so even death wouldn't have stopped him.

Also, Palpatine helped to make the Skywalker bloodline through Sith Sorceries with his master so for HIM its like watching your grandchild take up the family business when before said grandchild was trying to be a hippy.

Maybe, with regards to Anise.

And maybe it's just from reading a couple of TotA fanfics but I totally would try to shoehorn in a Luke x Arietta pairing, somehow, someway.

Arietta got kicked pretty badly too, didn't she?

Had her 'mommy' offed at the start of the game
Distraught over not being Fon Master Guardian anymore
Died without knowing what actually happened to Ion

Maybe a character piece?

Time has flowed differently, the SA never appears on the galactic stage. Citadel Space opened Relay 314 in Citadel year 2733(2153 in canon) and soon expanded into that systems relays.

One Relay tho was not like the others, it's partner was apparently jammed and had been for several tens of thousand years. Not jammed as in locked down, but jammed as in it had been and in fact was still currently trying to, transit a mass several hundred orders of magnitude greater then its capacity for greater then 50,000 years.

The implications of this news were manifold, the Council in a surprise move jumped to action, taking the bearing of the known partner of the jammed relay the powers that be trained their telescopes along that line of sight. They found another mystery awaiting them. At a point sometime in the last 100,000 years or so a yellow dwarf gen 3 star appeared(light lag and multiple ftl accessible points of observation) to ceased to exist. No Nova, no remnant cloud, just gone dark.

Now with a destination the galaxy at large races to see what even the protheans may never have seen.

correct me if I'm wrong here but are proposing that this idea has a whole solar system sent through a mass relay?

So, what about a story set in another state of the USA in the Fallout world, to expand the world map and get some real creative juices writing? Like I said in another topic, we've just seen Washington DC, California and a bit of Nevada. There's a whole USA to explore, and many other Lone Wanderers and Vault Dwellers and Couriers to rise.

What country would you use? Personally, I'd like to see what happened to New Orleans or Lousiana.

I'm sure most people who live in the states would like to see a Fallout game set in their own state! Another thing that would be interesting, did the Vault pogram happen overseas? I'd like to see a Fallout game in another country!

Exactly what I was thinking. Nuclear damage happened all over the world. China and sud-east were covered in ice because of the nuclear winter, western europe took some heavy blasts (in the same shape of the USA).

Regarding the Vault program, some Canadian Vaults are mentioned but Canada was annexed by USA before the Great War happened. Now, suppose that Vault Tech was a global company only originating from the USA, I see them building Vaults in other countries as well, behind payment. I do wonder, though, at this time...

Most of the Vaults were built of filled with failures on purpose to gather data on human behaviour. It was a USA's initiative, if I remember correctly, but what if it was only beyond VT's 'suggestion'? That would up the chances of being more Vaults in other countries and to have them filled with things gone wrong for sidequests.

Edit: Nevermind, just checked. It was the work of the Enclave. Well, maybe they're an Illuminati like society, branching all over the world? I guess they broke off into nation-particular sects after the war.

IT didn't work. Sol's still there. The attempted, but failed mass transit of Sol (cause by proximity) was just something the designers didn't code for so, the relay's locked in cycle unable to move to the next step.

The Government was fucked anyway, no Shepard, the Reapers are still coming. In some ways the people of the galaxy have hope now.

Okay. Made the 'War never changes' speech for an hypothetical Fallout story, featuring a British guy with the territory being French Normandy. One of the locations on the pipboy would obviously be Sword Beach. I extrapolated the background from the videos I saw, some data about nuclear explosions and of course the Fallout Bible and Wiki.


War. War never changes.

Over the ages, from the days of tribes and stilted settlements to the ones of countries and sprawling metropolises, humankind has waged war for the most disparate reasons, from territory to freedom to dwindling resources. The European Commonwealth invaded the Middle East over these last ones, only for the last rigs to go dry in-conflict, bringing it to an abrupt halt. Those same countries let loose their full arsenal on each other just like China and America and every other one possessing nukes, a Great War that in just two hours scorched and burned the very earth their capitals stood on.

But it was not, as some thought, the end of all life. It was just the prologue to another bloody chapter in human history. For if some were blessed with avoiding the rain of fire and death, war never changes.

Britain mercifully avoided the devastation that littered continental Europe, but nuclear winter grasped it in ten years of terrible cold, and the explosions from France, Germany, Spain, still washed the insular kingdom with fallout. Crops died, disease killed thousands, but people survived. Their country was still there. They could have rebuilt. Instead, they descended into Civil War.

The malcontent from the days before the Great War, heightened by the Great Cold, sparked out a fratricide conflict which reshaped the country's sociopolitical asset into the New Anglosaxon Monarchy.

Two centuries after the birth of this new government, the year 2295, also marks the start of a massive operation to discover what has become of continental Europe: the Channel Initiative, named after the miraculously intact rail tunnel more than the still terribly irradiated body of water underneath which it pans.

No one has crossed the 50 miles of tunnel connecting Folkestone to Calais, no Englishman has set foot in another country member of the dissolved Commonwealth in more than two hundred years.

That is about to change.

I do have an idea for a Kid icarus uprising fanfiction: The Aurum never happened. After the defeat of Phosphora, The Chaos Kin takes full control of Palutena, to the point her soul was devoured. Pit's ring was never found, Hades managed to take control of Palutena's Army and kill the Chaos Kin, as well as cripple the forces of nature to the point that a regular human army could take them out. Speaking of humans, the ensuing Conflicts and 'Betrayal' of the Goddess of light has broken the metaphysical straw on humanity's back, and they rebel against the gods. It fails horribly. 3,000 years later, Pit's ring is found by a little girl in modern times.

Hmmm, still regarding this Fallout idea that doesn't want to leave my mind... Should I write it in a third or first person perspective? I want to recreate the feelings of the games, and a first person perspective would recreate the atmosphere, since it would take away from me the opportunity to do behind the scenes/cut to other characters, but if I write it in third person I could make it so that the character stays mostly anonymous, allowing for deeper immersion. Hmmm, decisions, decisions...

A bit late to note this, but there's a contradiction in your idea: the humans lost horribly against Hades, right? Then how the fuck would they reach modern times with Hades winning the war?

Not that I liked the idea in the first place anyway, but I wanted to point that out.

Now, crazy idea for Kid Icarus. As we know, Viridi didn't change her view of humanity after the game and would rather have them all gone. However, at this point, she know she doesn't stand a real chance of winning should she go for it again: the Reset bomb factory is gone and Palutena and Pit would also move to defend the humans.

As she saw, Palutena's army isn't a real problem for her forces. No, the real problem is Pit. As shown by Hades, direct confrontation will fail for sure should she try it. How to remove the guy from the equation if her forces can't do it then?

What about... seduction? Sure, he's an angel, he's thick in the head and completly devoted to Palutena right now, but he's still a guy and it's not like there's any other girl in Skyworld, right? He would probably never dare to make a move on his Goddess either. So why not outright get him instead of just trying to eliminate him. And it's not because it would be nice to have someone show her that much devotion either.

Maybe Phosphora could help if she fails. And once Palutena notice what Viridi is doing, what would she do to counter that plan, hmmm? ^_^

I got the idea from the original kid icarus manual, which mentions something about uprising and the nes version being in the past.
