I've written short stories in the past...had a few nearly reach novella length, and I've seen CoH/CoV as an endless source of potential material to work with....
But a very flighty attention span, coupled with constant indeciseivness has all but crippled any writing I could do...; so I turn to you, the fellow players out there for advice and suggestions!
I've currently got several story ideas in my head, but am not sure which I want to focus on writing 1st, so I thought I'd fly the basic idea for each by you all and see which captures your interest most...I'll post more details on both at a later date if need be....
The top 4 ideas I presently have all involve my MA/SR Scrapper, CapeMike, with him starring or co-starring in 3 of them and making a lesser appearance in the 4th:
The 1st story idea dates back to July of '05 and, at least in my head, is the 2nd most 'finished'; CapeMike has a run-in with Pinnacle's own Red Saviour II during a SuperGroup 'congress' of sorts; before anyone knows what's really happened, the 2 end up in the arena for a best of 3 duel...the 2nd match will be the main focus of the story, and it's all based on actual events!
Idea 2 is a pure slapstick comedy, featuring a series of short 'skits' in the vein of Saturday Night Live involving CapeMike and his longtime ally, Demon-Stalker, getting themselves into all kinds of wacky mis-adventures over the course of a few days in-game....
Idea 3 again stars CapeMike with another ally, Romathom;as the 2 are constantly striving to one-up each other's fighting skills, what happens when something goes terribly wrong, placing the better part of an entire zone in imminent danger?
Idea 4 stars one of my lesser used, but most beloved alts, MakoType-824, an Invuln/Energy Tanker; a creation of CapeMike and an ally from his home dimension, this 'Technorganic' being is neither human nor machine, yet also -both-; the 2005 Holiday events feature heavily in this story when Mako is called in to help rescue presents from Arachnos' grip...things won't quite go as expected for anyone!
And there you have it...advice and suggestions here, in private messages, and via ingame or real email are welcomed! I'll update things soon!
