[QUOTE="trimeulose, post: 184144, member: 1527"] DnD is so encompassing, it would be hard. I'ld probably try to stay away from munchkin tactics. There would have to be some kind of lead up for the movie. Ie a decent non-munchkin DnD cartoon or miniseries or something. The series would have the characters probably in either Greyhawk or Raven-Loft. Tough call there. Start the characters out at level one and show there abilities off. Show how they train, and how they would gain levels. Using SoT series as an example. Richard goes to the palace of prophets and they train him, but he finds out that his magic is more in impulsive than coachable so he gets a level of Sor. He has a level of ranger at the start, probably the monte cooks ranger. The series would have a main evil guy. During the series the characters would be doing odd jobs to "foil" the plans of the main guy. They would be working with some rebel force. At the end of the season the characters would be caught, except one who would seem to be dead (preferrably the cowardly lover of sorcerer(ess) wizard(ress)). During the movie, the evil guy would have them executed... no stereotypical speech. The coward would come back and rescue the group to make up for his/her un-honorable ways. The group then captures the evil guy to execute/ransom him. He explains that they have actually been helping him doing his odd jobs. After they take him to their leader of rebels, he laughs. He casts a gate spell, and troops march quickly through. The rebels fight hard, and to their credit, kill a lot of baddies; but they are fighting a losing battle. The rebel leader, mortally wounded, tells the group leader (probably a fighter/future weapon master) that he must leave and travel to the head place to recruit some "friends" on the inside. The group turns and hears screaming amongst a whoosh, a cackle, a hiss, and several bits of roaring. The group leader lets out a simple command, "Run, for all things dear run." "What is it?" exclaims the roguish character. "Dragons!" The group travels to the castle of the bad guy where upon their arrival they meet a lepercaun (which has been mischeivous up until this point in the series). They find out that the lepercauns have been masacred and that he is only one of few left, and now he has come to help the group. He joins and shows them the secret way into the castle (which just happens to be a dungeon). The group travels through the dungeon, and finally meets up with a beautiful woman. (The woman has been introduced before and is a common in flashbacks). The group leader falls on his knees and begins whispering prayers with his head down and his hands on his sword in reverence. He then explains to the group that this was his love, but she hasn't changed in 5 years and even still he thought she had been dead for all these years. She explains that she has been working as a spy, and that she is their contact to the "friends" on the inside. She takes them through tunnels, and the group begins hearing animal sounds. They go through some underground stables, and are traveling through animal pens, when finally they come to a large decorated cavern with a large hole in the center with the crystal clearest water you've ever seen. The cavern is filled with magic items, gems, precious metals, fine art, ect. One of the larger piles of gold moves. Its actually a Gold Dragon. Other metallic dragons emerge, and gem dragons start emerging. The Group screams at their contact. They are worried for her (expecially the leader) amongst the dangerous creatures. She explains that these Dragons are tired of serving an evil master and that they wish to help in the fight against him. The leader asks how she can trust them when Dragons just slayed the people that faught against the bad guy. She then asks him to not judge all dragon based on what a few do. The group tries to convince him to join the dragons, he says he can't see how. Then his love changes to a dragon. He is overcome with himself. Cheesy love scenes........ And I'm spent, I'll probably add more later. [/QUOTE]
