Alright, but since there is no heaven, that bit is a little odd. But I'll keep quiet. Now what about my post before that?

Ah, I have some ideas of my own, but I haven't sure yet. Probably I'll keep it for surprise later!



Ra wrote:What I meant was that Darth Kreshna is waylaid by the Soong-Oths, and obviously awakened. Sdenna wants him awake when he disintegrates him.

But Darth Kreshna escapes by himself, going off in a stolen ship to Borg space. There the Borg allow him to seek refuge aboard the Death Star.

And Galadriel wouldn't wake the Phoenix-incarnate up. That would be... stupid? Unwise? Something...
Ra, please keep the plot flexible enough for others to play the game, okay? I mean, Dark Silver did not storm Coruscant for nothing. Perhaps Darth Kreshna will stay unconscious? And the Guardians will be succesful in kidnapping him? Or maybe Lord Walper would be tempted to snatch the Phoenix under the Guardian's nose?

It doesn't mean that the scene of Guardian ships surrounding the Death Star will not happen. Just because the Guardian can kidnap Darth Kreshna it doesn't mean you cannot snatch him back. Who knows, the virus can prove useful? Who knows, it may open more surprising possibilities?

I'm not saying Darth Kreshna should be kidnapped either. My point is: whether the Guardians would be successful in kidnapping him or not, the plot should be flexible enough to adapt to both situations. Again, the scene where Guardian vessels are surrounding the Death Star can still happen even though the Guardian kidnaps Darth Kreshna. You can always snatch him back, or perhaps 'helping' the Phoenix to escape on his own.


And what are the roles of the Nexus? Frankly, I still have no idea yet, but actually the unknown factor serve as future plot possibilities. That's why I keep the Nexus unexplained. Perhaps Allen has some ideas as well?


Ra wrote:
Probably planet Earth would be the 'Babylon Five'; the home of the Goa'ulds, the Borg, the A'millans, the Trollish Imperium, and Darth Kreshna's faction?
Hmm, I would prefer to keep the different sides in their own territories, personally.
In that case, the Earth can be a 'neutral' meeting place. Temporary residence, if you will.

Agree. Mind you, I like your plot. I'm just reminding of some possibilities. The plot is excellent, but it should also be flexible enough to accomodate the 'freedom' of the gameplay. In fact, the plot is flexible, as long as we don't set too may details.

Do you still remember our talks in SDN? In C&G forum? You know, about the computer game design? Yes, good RPG like Fallout has excellent storyline, but also flexible to accomodate the gameplay. 'Semi-dynamic' plot and such.

It is not necessarily 'heaven' in literal mean. I don't know whether the Maiars actually have heaven of some sort, but it could be a 'telepathic realm', virtual world, or such. A shared dream-state, probably.

I guess Allen should play the chasing Shog-Oth. It is his force, after all! :wink:

LEt Ra handle the Shog-Oth, he knows it a bit better than i am

and to be honest, I'm focusing my attentions on the Coruscant battle more than anything....

I'm trying to lure Nitram now....I figured by throwing out insane amounts of Magickal energy, it's lure him out of hiding....

Of course I'll let things be flexible, I've just been suggesting a general direction.

Yeah, in the end I guess it's up to Allen to figure out what the Nexuses are, but I think it may be that the Guardians just don't normally take corporeal form or something. In essence, a Nexus is their home. But it would have to be more than that. Something mysterious and magical, no doubt.
In that case, the Earth can be a 'neutral' meeting place. Temporary residence, if you will.
True. Perhaps some orbital station or building on Earth that acts as a... to borrow a term from my stories... Interstellar Accord? An intergalactic body that acts as a meeting place for all powers (Goa'uld, Asgard, Imperial, A'millian, etc.).
Agree. Mind you, I like your plot. I'm just reminding of some possibilities. The plot is excellent, but it should also be flexible enough to accomodate the 'freedom' of the gameplay. In fact, the plot is flexible, as long as we don't set too may details.
Agreed. After all, I wouldn't have posted if I didn't want some feedback. :grin:

True. I'll keep that in mind. I wasn't trying to sound inflexible, I was just floating around ideas and trying to get a consensus on the plot. Kinda like what happened when we agreed to make this an *S*TGOD in the first place.

Mind you, it could be Darth Kreshna's Death Star. With bars, clubs, casinos, artificial beaches, and golf courses! :P Do the Borg play golf?




I have two things in mind, by the way:

(1) The Legends of the Ancient Guardians.

In STGOD continuity, the Guardians were originally Maiar. They fought a Maiar who became crazy because he was incarnated by the Phoenix, and eventually defeated him, but not before taking great great casualties in the Middle Earth. So they mutated themselves into non-corporeal, space-faring, dimensional-faring Ancient Guardians. The Guardians were benevolent until recently (after Clone Wars) when Palpatine corrupted them (discovered by Lady Adam during her exploration in an abandoned Guardian outpost)

Allen just added an element to the Guardian's Legend: a White Wolf Archmagus (a VERY powerful, reality-altering magic user) is behind the Guardians; acting as their master and suppressor.

Mind you, it doesn't have to contradict the present continuity. In fact, it could add some more legends to the Guardians.


See, the Maiars changed themselves into the Ancient Guardians because their traumatic experience with the Phoenix. So they mutated into those space-faring beings to watch over the Phoenix. But how did they mutated themselves on the first place? That part is still unexplained until now.

Now here's my idea: how about they did it by 'making pact with the devil'? And here's the 'devil' is actually the White Wolf Archmagus played by Allen. See, it was the Archmagus who helped the Maiars mutated themselves into the Guardians. Note that the Guardians were still benevolent at that point: they simply had no choice because they need to keep the universe (multiverses?) safe from the Phoenix.

And then Palpatine's corruption. What made the Guardians so gullible? So susceptible to Palpatine's Dark Side manipulation? Probably the Guardians were VERY desperate at that point?


See, the Guardians wanted to see the Jedi real bad; they had patiently waited for the Outbound Flight (after their UFO crashed on Tatooine and investigated by Yoda and the Smoking Man), but the Flight never reached its destination. So eventually the Guardians visited the Star Wars Galaxy, and according to Lady Adam's discovery, they were greeted by 'the Benevolent Jedi Master Palpatine'. Yup, the Guardians were looking for a solution to safely contain the Phoenix in a peaceful host, maybe?

But then again, probably Palpatine also knew about the White Wolf Archmagus that the Guardians were making pact with.... Probably Palpatine also offer a solution? Luring the Guardians into his Dark Side corruption?


Then the Guardians went mad, but Palpatine was more than ready: preparing a massive Imperial War Machines consist of Star Destroyers, Star Cruisers, Executors, Eclipses, Death Stars, World Devastators, Sun Crushers, and Galaxy Guns (at least that was the way it planned. So no, it wasn't the Vong that drove Palpatine to build such unecessary large fleet. :razz: ).

But then again, why Palpatine bothered to corrupt the Guardians? Moreoever, why Palpatine took Kreshna, a Force Blind, as his apprentice? Did Palpatine know that Kreshna is a Phoenix Avatar?


As a mere Sith, Palpatine is less powerful than omnipotents like a White Wolf Archmagus or Q, or the Beyonder, or the Living Tribunal, but Palpatine's true power lies in his deviousness. It is the human's ingenuity that can actually beat the gods.


So again, why Palpatine corrupted the Guardians while taking the Phoenix as his apprentice? This is supposed to be the Great Mystery of this STGOD.... And no, I ain't going to spill any spoilers. But in fact, I still haven't anything set in concrete. So any suggestions are welcome. Please use PM to prevent us to ruin each other's surprise by spoilers!

Also, The Organization has emphasized many times that they need the Phoenix to conquer (and economically exploit) the Guardians. What did they got in mind, actually? How will they use the Phoenix for their purpose? How will they react by Lord Walper's act of rescuing Darth Kreshna? Will they be panicked? Or will they rub their palms and snicker, "excellent! Just as we expected!" Again, suggestions are welcome.




(2) The Soundtrack of the Final Scene.

Ra said the final climatic battle will be opened by Guardian ships looming above the Death Star with booming voice, "RELEASE THE PHOENIX TO US!!"

Well I guess the most appropriate soundtrack will be Original Sin by Taylor Dane. You know, the soundtrack of the movie The Shadow (not B5 Shadow but the comicbook character). It should be the 'bridge chorus' part, where the chorus is only accompanied by the heavy bass drum.

I've been looking for an original sin
One with a twist and a bit of a spin
And since I've done all of the old ones
Till they've all been done in
Now I'm just looking
Then I'm gone with the wind
Endlessly searching for an original sin

I saw that. Everything is proceeding as planned...

:lol: Well, good idea. The DS will need major rebuilding after the battle, but it could certainly work. I like the idea.

They fought a Maiar who became crazy because he was incarnated by the Phoenix, and eventually defeated him, but not before taking great great casualties in the Middle Earth.

Yes, I like the idea of the Archmagus. I've been working on some backstories for him, and gave him a name, Sdenna Asarr.

Only one item to correct; the Guardians had already left Middle-earth before meeting the Phoenix. But that's a minor detail, nothing serious.
See, the Maiars changed themselves into the Ancient Guardians because their traumatic experience with the Phoenix. So they mutated into those space-faring beings to watch over the Phoenix.

But how did they mutated themselves on the first place? That part is still unexplained until now.

Now here's my idea: how about they did it by 'making pact with the devil'? And here's the 'devil' is actually the White Wolf Archmagus played by Allen. See, it was the Archmagus who helped the Maiars mutated themselves into the Guardians. Note that the Guardians were still benevolent at that point: they simply had no choice because they need to keep the universe (multiverses?) safe from the Phoenix.
A good idea, indeed. While I had supposed the Maiar-Guardians had used their powers to shapeshift into their spacefaring forms (Maiar are naturally noncorporeal, but they can take form as whatever they want, including Elves and Men); it's still an interesting idea that the Archmagus (which I prefer to see as the lead Maiar in their group) had a role in that.
And then Palpatine's corruption. What made the Guardians so gullible? So susceptible to Palpatine's Dark Side manipulation? Probably the Guardians were VERY desperate at that point?
I think so. The Guardians had never been able to defeat the Phoenix entirely, even their Oracle of Datasse (which was lost, BTW) could only exorcise the Phoenix, not destroy it.
See, the Guardians wanted to see the Jedi real bad; they had patiently waited for the Outbound Flight (after their UFO crashed on Tatooine and investigated by Yoda and the Smoking Man), but the Flight never reached its destination. So eventually the Guardians visited the Star Wars Galaxy, and according to Lady Adam's discovery, they were greeted by 'the Benevolent Jedi Master Palpatine'. Yup, the Guardians were looking for a solution to safely contain the Phoenix in a peaceful host, maybe?
Precisely.
But then again, probably Palpatine also knew about the White Wolf Archmagus that the Guardians were making pact with.... Probably Palpatine also offer a solution? Luring the Guardians into his Dark Side corruption?
Indeed a possibility.
Then the Guardians went mad, but Palpatine was more than ready: preparing a massive Imperial War Machines consist of Star Destroyers, Star Cruisers, Executors, Eclipses, Death Stars, World Devastators, Sun Crushers, and Galaxy Guns (at least that was the way it planned. So no, it wasn't the Vong that drove Palpatine to build such unecessary large fleet. :razz: ).
Exactly. Palpatine planned for everything. The Vong were no concern of his, indeed in the one Vong book I read, they indicated that the Empire could have handled the Vong threat easily.
But then again, why Palpatine bothered to corrupt the Guardians? Moreoever, why Palpatine took Kreshna, a Force Blind, as his apprentice? Did Palpatine know that Kreshna is a Phoenix Avatar?
It's indeed possible that he knew Darth Kreshna was a Force-blind, but the ultimate reason Palpy corrupted the Guardians is probably to weaken them and cause them to self destruct or eventually be bent to his will, kinda like the Ringwraiths were bound to the will of the Dark Lord. Papatine wanted to be a real god, to dominate all life. Dominating both Guardian and Phoenix would have been right up his alley.
As a mere Sith, Palpatine is less powerful than omnipotents like a White Wolf Archmagus or Q, or the Beyonder, or the Living Tribunal, but Palpatine's true power lies in his deviousness. It is the human's ingenuity that can actually beat the gods.

Just as we expected!" Again, suggestions are welcome.
I can't say anything yet, but perhaps pursuing the modus operandi of the Organization could be the basis for the sequel?

I'm back.

Nitram's been reforming the blasted remains of Middle Earth into a Paradise-world. The Eldar of 40k would be drooling if they knew what it would be like once the plant and animal life return to the currently barren rock and empty oceans. And I've used that to work out what his position in all this is, as I'm here for more than just thumping Walper around. Though that's fun too!

Nitram's the survivor of the greatest human Empire. You can talk about the Galactic Empire's population, the Imperium's scope, et cetera. The Netherese, however, challenged the Gods and won. Only for a moment, but they won. And yet he knows the cost of this was their ruin, and his own entombment in an increasingly nasty set of places, until he was finally banished to Ravenloft, the Demiplane Of Dread.

Since he never embraced the corruption that would make him a Dread Lord, and because he wielded power enough to challenge Vecna and bash the Lich-God's head in, he stole the secret way out of the plane and escaped... Into this reality.

I stress. He's a survivor. He's seen what happens when humanity reaches too far. And he's not happy about that. So his actions are ultimately going to be about one thing; trying to preserve Humanity. Not any one government, not any one idea, none of that. Just humans.

It is interesting that the Guardians actually seek to destroy all sentient lifes (including humanity). The GE, on the other hand, represents the pinnacle of humanity; they're the only human nation that can stand toe-to-toe against the ancient gods (the Guardians). So what's the Archmagus' stance regarding the war between the humans and the gods?


By the way, another White Wolf Archmagus is behind the Guardians (played by Dark Silver). Probably it is something related to your Archmagus character? Something happened in the distant past? Ancient legends, ancient feud, different philosphy, and such things?

Quick note Kreshna: I think you mixed up your post somewhat...I put your character onboard the Death Star under it's own medical facilities, not a Borg sphere. Although I would see the likelyhood of some Borg technology being used trying to assist your condition.

:oops: I thought Darth Kreshna is still in the Borg Sphere, which is en route to the Death Star to put him there. Alright, I will retcon (edit) the post, then.


By the way................

A note to everyone:

Well, the reason why I urge everyone not to rush up to the ending because we're still have a lot of ongoing plot elements, not to mention the potential to play more great battles.

(1) I noticed in Dark Silver's post that the Archmagus (not Nitram, but the one behind the Guardians) is sending several Guardian ships to the A'millans; disguised as Goa'uld Ha'taks.

Remember that the in-universe Adam (Lord Adam) doesn't know they're not actually Goa'uld ships. Not to mention the Archmagus' manipulation should be convincing (heck, we're talking about reality-altering mages here). I guess that may cause political tension between the Goa'ulds and the A'millans.

Yes, they're the Army of Lights, and (eventually) they have to unite to save the universe from the Clash of the Titans (Guardians vs Empire), but like in Babylon Five, it would be an uneasy alliance. Yes, they're the good guys (Goa'ulds, A'millans, Trolls, Borg), but like in Babylon Five, they're also different nations with their own interests.

On the other hand, the Goa'ulds are now allying with the Rebel Alliance. Perhaps we'll see another Star Wars vs Star Trek space battles here....


(2) The Guardians should be really pissed off when the Shog-Oths fail to find Darth Kreshna in the hospital (later, after some epic ground battle on Coruscant). Perhaps, after their failure to capture the Phoenix, they will go rampage, attacking various nations in order to destroy every sentient lifes?

Yes, the Army of Light (Borg, Goa'ulds, A'millans, Trolls) will eventually unite to save the universe, but like in real world (and in good story, and in Babylon Five :razz: ), they're not going to do so just for the sake of being the good guys! No, they need more pragmatical motives; that is, the need of mutual survival. Probably it's time for the Guardians, played by Dark Silver, to give them the needed motives by destroying and rampaging accross their homeworld?

(and mind you, the Guardians is more than capable to do so. Toe-to-toe, their ships eat Star Destroyers for lunch. The reason why the Empire can hold the Guardians at bay is because its immense fleet strength and industrial capacity.)

Nitram? He beleives Humanity should win, and will shield them when he can. Which means he will be extending his influence to Coruscant, even if he's too busy to come personally. It should be fairly obvious Nitram has mastered Avatar, but another casting would be very hard to enact.
By the way, another White Wolf Archmagus is behind the Guardians (played by Dark Silver). Probably it is something related to your Archmagus character? Something happened in the distant past? Ancient legends, ancient feud, different philosphy, and such things?
Technically, Nitram's not WW; He's from D&D's highest level magic, the Netherese, but they're likely about equal(I might give it slightly to Nitram, in both reignition to the STGOD tendency of quality vs. quantity, and of course, the fact he's used Avatar before). It's quite possible there's some ancient interaction between them; Nitram's been through alot of extradimensional prisons.

It might be as simple as a difference in philosophy. When beings this powerful disagree, it's the universe that suffers.

By the way, did you guys notice the oddity of my latest STGOD post?

Yup, Darth Kreshna still lays comatose aboard his Death Star, which is in Borg space; many lightyears away from Coruscant. Yet his raging Phoenix aura, which usually shroud his own physique, now is wreaking havoc on Corusant's orbit, inadvertedly incinerating the Guardian ships.

Who's actually responsible behind the unusual phenomenon? Is Darth Kreshna still in control of the Phoenix? Sure it is ignited by his Dark Side emotions, but it seems somebody else is using 'remote control' (magical? The Force?) to point the Phoenix aura at whim.

Who's actually reaping the most benefit by this whole Phoenix thing? :wink:

What Nitram's stance about the Phoenix? Will he think the Phoenix is too dangerous for humanity? Would he approve the Army of Light's plan to host the Phoenix in a Jedi, as explained by the theory formulated by the Guardians (when they were still benevolent), the Witches of Dathomir, and the Jedi Knight Allor Whind?

And what is his involvement will be? Will Nitram directly involve himself, or taking a subtle approach from the background like Ambassador Kosh?

Alright, don't tell anything right now. I guess we have enough spoilers already in this OOC thread. :razz: Keep 'em for surprises!

As the Guardians are going rampage, while the Phoenix is controlled by the most devious mind in the galaxy, I guess the universe will suffer indeed. :wink:

Now, Galadriel's having a run-in with Gerak and the Free Jaffa. Don't interfere!

Nice work! But what I really love is actually this part:
But from what Robert had gathered from Sauron's own insights and historical records, there was a strong possibility the Pheonix had at one time tried to feed upon Middle Earth long ago. The result had been the mutation of certain races that ended up lacking life energy, and apparently Orcs and Uruk_Hai were offshoots of this effect.
Yup, ancient legends, untold history, age-old mystery. That's what I love. That's why I love the likes of Babylon Five and Cthulhu Mythos (although Da Vinci Code sucks . :sad: )

By the way, now the duel is finished, I guess we can return the pace of this game (because we don't have to slow things down to keep the pace consistent with the duel). So when Dark Silver is going to start The Guardian's genocide?

Yup, that will *motivate* the players to search for solution to end the destructive war, and to co-operate with each other as well (mutual need of survive, remember?). Also, Dartzap is currently away from the game, perhaps destroying Trollish colonies can *motivate* him to get back into the game. :razz:

Oh, by the way you're still attacking Coruscant. Perhaps, after fail to find Darth Kreshna in the hospital, the Guardians will go postal?

Alright, I kinda ended the standoff early. I haven't really worked out what direction I was going with that.

On another note, Allen you're welcome to make a little strike at the Jaffa, but not immediately. Wait till about four or five posts down. Hell, all their tech is identical to the Goa'ulds, the in-universe Guardians wouldn't hardly tell the difference between Snakehead and Jaffa. :lol:

Ah, but why attacking the Jaffa, while you can make an assault on the Goa'ulds *immediately*?? Do it now, Allen! Exterminate all Goa'ulds while Galadriel is still busy with the Free Jaffa! Mwaha-mwahahaha!!! :twisted:



:razz: Nah, just kidding.
