[QUOTE="Doc_Pippin, post: 7958884, member: 7022122"] Sorry for the long delay, switching to teaching online has been time consuming... I guess one of the first steps in expanding [I]The Dueling Dracula [/I]would be to decide which versions of Dracula are the most conducive to the overarching narrative of the setting. Once we have selected four to seven primary Dracula(s?) antagonists to lead their respective factions, we could more easily create the logical pairings of various lesser Draculas and vampire groups from other media to their most logical leader and balance the power struggle in such a way as to ensure the players could meaningfully impact the situation. Some of the ideas I had for Primary Dracula(s) 1. The original Dracula as detailed by Bram Stoker - While I think the original Dracula should 100% be in this story, I do worry about his power level compared to the later more action focused iterations. 2. Castlevania Dracula - The game series help to build him into a functional multifaceted boss and the anime series helps relate to the character from an RP perspective 3. Drac for Blade: Trinity - In addition to having a distinct nickname which would help in differentiating the various antagonists he had an interesting suite of abilities that made him different from other Dracula At the moment I have not figured out which other Draculas to pick. I have been floating some ideas but nothing has really jumped out at me, and I am likely forgetting many possible selections... A short list of Dracula I have been contemplating are - Mel Brooks' Comedic Dracula - The Dracula depicted in 2004's Van Helsing - Dracula from Dracula Untold - Batman Dracula ( Andy Warhol's Batman Dracula 1964) - Blacula (While a known cultural symbol I am a bit wary of this one) - Nocturna (While she is supposed to be the Grand daughter of Dracula I was really hoping for a female version of Dracula rather than a subordinate version like Brides of Dracula or Lucy Westenra) - Elizabeth Báthory (As above but more real world legend than cinema) I also thought that if included Alucard from the Hellsing Organization would likely not be an antagonist in this story due to his vampire hunting role in the show.
