[QUOTE="aco175, post: 9639071, member: 27385"] The initial read seems like you want to have the PCs be the secondary characters in the story and the big NPCs be the world changers. This might be ok at lower levels, but at some point, the PCs start to be seen as people to be allies with or to take out somehow. An idea might be around the Star Wars movies where young Anakin (at least the 2 movies with the Clone Wars) represents the PCs and the politics around him being drawn to the Jedi and to the Emperor as he advances in the political world surrounding the robot wars. This could be levels 1-5 or something. Everyone is distracted with the robots and do not see the bigger threat growing in their midst. Levels 6-11 might be needing the clone army to deal with the robots and suddenly they turn on you and the Emperor gains the throne. The PCs realize they have been duped all along. Levels 12-? the Pcs figure out a way to overthrow the Emperor and his minions trying to get the upperhand in the new regime. [/QUOTE]
