Hey everyone,

I was just wondering if anybody would like to do a Thor RP, I do not have any particular plots in mind but I was thinking of doing something before the movie time lines but those who have knowledge of the comics can use it as well. OCs are most welcome as well as cannons, I am looking for a small group so about 3-4 people.

So if you are interested please post here and please share your ideas if you have some.

Well, I have an OC whose only power is to know what people need. Not want, not like, but /need/. This can vary from a super high-tech whatcha-ma-doohickey to a listening ear to a punch in the face. And everything has a time limit, which makes it harder, heh heh heh.

As for ideas, sometimes just throwing people together in a crazy situation and saying, "figure it out, bye!" is as good a plot as any. Things will develop from there.

Oh I have someone interested, sorry it took so long I've been busy. Well for a plot I was just thinking of the early years, before all the movies. Though with elements from the comics as well.

That's always a good idea, too. There is also the Big List of RPG Plots that you can use as a plot-generator: just roll the amount of plots (33-34) on a roll generator twice. The first one you get is the 'hook', the second one is the 'meat'. The plots are extremely generic so that they can fit any world or situation, and the writer offers some nice twists and curveball suggestions under each plot.

I Beg your Pardon works the best I feel.

I Beg Your Pardon makes an excellent hook and definitely gets things moving right off the bat. So then the question would be, who is being attacked? Will all the characters be attacked together by NPCs, or will they be set against each other from the start? What is the motivation? Most of the time things don't just happen for the evuls (though I suppose that also counts as a motivation, really). Maybe it's an insert-cool-name-here-thing-of-powerful-whatever that everyone wants (see Breaking and Entering, How Much for Just the Dingus, or Quest for the Sparkly Hoozits). Maybe they need control over a place (Capture the Flag, No One Has Soiled the Bridge). Maybe it's because they're about to get caught up in a Troublemakers plot. Just suggestions, please tell me if I'm being annoying, I just love to plot.

I was thinking the Frost Giants wanting their power source that Odin stole back, they invade Asgard and cause a bunch of trouble and what not.

Oooh, that sounds like fun. So the player characters could be guarding the power source... or maybe it's already stolen and they're giving chase. Maybe the players are captured and have to escape, hopefully with the power source in possession. Perhaps the turmoil around that power source is causing nasty things to the geography, making it even harder to do what they need to do. All sorts of sweet options. :P

Yeah exactly, the players will have to go and retrieve it. They can include cannon and of course originals.

Hmm, so trying to figure out how to shove my very much under-powered human OC in there. Her power of knowing what people need is a support power but very useful and potentially coveted... Perhaps a Jotun heard about it and kidnapped her from Midgard with the hopes of forcing her to use her powers for him, but accidentally dropped her between worlds so she wound up swept to Asgard by mistake. If that's possible with their new world-travel technique, I mean.

Alright, I was just wondering if it had to be approved first.
