You were meant to rule the dark, I was meant to see the sun Posts: 7,797 Group: Member + Member #137 Joined: March 13, 2005	So, I'm sure at least some of you know what NaNoWriMo is. It's basically where you have to write a novel in a month (November). This year, I want to rewrite Bayacrux. But I need your help to do it! Things you can help on: Plot What do you want the plot to be like? Of course I'm going to tie up loose ends and fix up stuff, but basically you have 3 choices: PLOT 1: Original Bayacrux plot/concept. PLOT 2: Combination of rewrites 2 and 3. Focuses on God, cults, and Frecyo being the government leader/a demigod. Seika is evil. PLOT 3: Complete rewrite. Currently I'm leaning towards a combination of all 3 options. CHARACTERS: I want only around 8-10 main human characters in the book. Currently I know I want: GOOD GUYS: Shed Frecyo Shira BAD GUYS: Seika Cinna Nick Other characters: Greemo (Shed's 'familiar' (needs new name)) One thing I need character-wise: Who should be the main, coordinating (human) bad guy? Seth is somewhat overused, and he always ends up just being a pawn. ANY ideas are accepted, no matter how weird. They should reflect the history of PMF however, like we could do a flood for the ZB database accident thing... Please help!

Don't go in the Shed! Posts: 10,926 Group: Administrator Member #1 Joined: September 25, 2004	I don't think you should restrict yourself to the basic plots of your previous versions. I would go for the complete rewrite, stealing bits and pieces from the previous ones but not sticking only to that. As for the characters, I think 8-10 main characters is a little too much. Stick to maybe two or three protagonists, and make the others secondary. And then of course you can have a ton of supporting characters, if you wish.

I've decided that the good guys will be Shed, Shira, Frecyo, and someone else (help?), and that the bad guy will be Roykid/Daniel, with his minions being Seika, Nick, and Cinna. Sorry RK, but it fit what I have in mind for the story. D:
