So we held our first official BTD OOC chat on AIM this evening at 9PM EST. We came up with some good ideas during the chat, so I'm thinking about possibly making this into a weekly or biweekly thing based on people's schedules. I'll try to hold it at earlier times, like 6PM EST or 7PM EST if that fits people's schedules better. The more people involved = the better input we have to work with. When would be good times for everyone? What timezone are you in?
During this session, we came up the following thoughts and ideas that we would appreciate everyone's input on!
Jasper Goes Double Agent
-- The general idea is this: "Maybe Alice could have a vision about them (the Volturi) plotting to do something to the wolves, but since it involves the wolves she can't see what it is. So they need to figure it out from the inside." - Cori
-- The reason the Volturi might be so interested in the werewolves is because they want to experiment with what happens when you cross a werewolf with a shapeshifter. Or a vampire. Actual torture/medical scenes may happen if people are up for it. This is what might prompt Alice to have a vision and get Jasper to go rogue.
-- "The Volturi probably know that Jasper's the weakest link in the Cullen chain and could be interested in his powers, and then they have an interest in Alice too, so he could be a target. He could kinda stage himself to go to the Volturi's side, but as a spy kind of thing so he could keep the Cullens informed on what they were up to. But I think that at the same time, it might get a little hard for him to keep his control and not slip to their side." - Cori.
-- We're working on the idea that only Carlisle and Alice will know that Jasper isn't really working for the Volturi. Edward too possibly, if they can't keep it from him. The reactions from the other Cullens about Jasper going rogue will be more genuine and will give more credence to the idea that he's really bad now, because they really will think he has gone rogue.
-- Since the Volturi are interested in adding Bella, Alice, and Edward to their ranks, they will allow him to visit the Cullens time to time. This will give them ample opportunity to chew him out for betraying their lifestyle.
-- Jasper will eventually slip up and actually drink from a human though. It will earn more trust with the Volturi, but less with the Cullens including Carlisle, Alice, Edward, and even Jasper himself.
-- The shapeshifters won't get involved unless it becomes absolutely necessary to stop him from killing the whole town or something. They have a tentative peace with the Cullens killing Jasper will probably break that trust and mess up all of their lives.
Timeline: Sooner rather than later. We're already forming the structure for it in the Felix/Jasper scene. But we would love input from everyone! Especially those that play Edward, Bella, the Volturi, and the werewolves!
The Input: Edward will probably catch onto something being up if they hide it from him. So it's probably better if they don't and let him in on it from the start. The werewolves won't be too happy with Jasper or the Cullens.
Rosalie/Emmett/Nessie vs. NPC Volturi Guard
-- The general idea is this: The Volturi haven't forgotten Nessie and have noticed the trio missing from Alaska and Forks. They have a NPC Volturi Guard play master of disguise and possibly attempt to kidnap Nessie or make vague threats.
-- A fight may happen.
-- This prompts the trio to go to Forks, because it looks like that they'll be safer with the family, if the Volturi are going to be everywhere.
Timeline: Sooner rather than later. We would love input from Nessie and Emmett! And we'd also like to know if you'd rather play the NPC Volturi Guard on your own or if you'd like me (Chaku) to NPC him for you?
The Input: Nessie's down for the plot and doesn't care who NPCs the Guard. Same for Emmett and Rosalie. Feel free to start it whenever and if none of you bring in the NPC, I can later. :)
Supernatural Beings
-- The general idea is this: Vampires, werewolves, and shapeshifters exist. But what else is out there?
-- We might, eventually but not right this second, want to look at the possibility of expanding the supernatural universe that S. Meyer has created for us. But what kind of creatures do you think would mesh better with our characters and story? What kind would you like to see? What ideas do you have for them?
Timeline: Later rather than sooner. We already have a lot to work with. So let's focus on the now rather than the later, but we'd still like input here!
The Input: Witches possibly? Those that have ties to a family or a group. Not generic. Other shifters (killer rabbits?), possibly from other tribes and countries.
