Ok, I have some random plot/campaign ideas floating around in my head and I would like some ideas/help/inspiration for who to weave them together, improve upon them, or ditch them( if the suck considerably).
* A world in trouble, on the brink of destruction. A few groups are forming armies, other forming dark pacts to obtain power.
* This world is in dire need of heros, many common folk no longer beleive they exist.
* Most of the world is comprised of humans, with a very small portion of the other races, very few elves, fem dwarves, the gnomes and halfing may be more common.
* Most of the monsters are humans. Save the orcs, goblins, and some of the other creatures saved for stories their parents tell their children to keep them inline (even though they really exist, most people refusee to beleive, and their scarcity helps this thought process.)
* There is a war in the heavens. The celestials are fighting with each other. I am thinking those who would act to try and redeem this world, those who beleive we should try to help ourselves, and a third group, those who beleive we are beyond saving.
Heres is what I am currently thinking. The PC's are in the middle of their run of the mill battle, when suddenly, lightning arcs throught the sky, scorching a 45 foot crater into the ground. Within it are two celestials fighting. One celestial quickly overpowers the other, but just before the killing blow is struck, the defeated celestial flings a ball of misty energy at the PC's, at which point they wake-up. Upon waking they find themselves in a town they are not familiar with. Sleeping in beds they do not know, and in a town that has never seen them before. Or perhaps they should awaken in the woods, or an area similar to the one they were fighting in. Either way I think they should end up in that alternate Prime Material. OK, that is pretty much all I can think of right now. What do you think, what needs improvement, and so on, and so forth Thanks for reading.
