[QUOTE="Herobizkit, post: 6095829, member: 36150"] I, for one, want to play this game. And as plot hooks, think on a personal level. * Neighbor Fred drove a Dire Rat out of his garbage and now he can't seem to lose his aggro. Dire Rats follow him everywhere - the supermarket, his office/garage, out to his parent's place... * The local "junior drug procurement officer" got really high on 'shrooms one night, found "magic sneakers" and jumped on what he thought was a Goomba. Turns out it was a Myconid that he stomped to death as it was tunneling out from under the yard. Now the 'shrooms are trying to do HIM. * The fat kid who never got attention in class is suddenly everyone's best friend and he's turned the school into his own personal fortress. The grown-ups want to go home. (see/read Lord of the Flies) * A pair of FBI agents is researching the growing infestation of 'alien' creatures and strange artifacts in order to catalog them. Anything the get their hands on becomes unobtainable by the PC's. (see X-Files, Warehouse 13) * Local bum/town drunk has found and is now using Town Portal to perform break-ins. * a gang of LARPers now have to deal with REAL Goblins and Trolls. Too bad no one can cast Fire. * A group of private school jocks has taken to using Summoning pets to gamble on "dog-fights". (Pokemon gone bad) Finding maces and wands and blowing up monsters is one thing, but how these events AFFECT people is the key to modern-setting storytelling. :) [/QUOTE]
