Clash of Worlds by Bloodshadow

[Glitch]

Actually, here was my current plan:

Alan (annihilus) invented this device to travel from his world to another in the multiverse.  He started out normal.  But after everyone left, he kind of went crazy.  And the device can't /steer/, you simply say what the place you want to go to is like and you go there.  Since the world is constantly changing, it's freaking impossible to get back.  So it takes his a couple years, but he makes a way to steer.  But in that time, everyone who went to their respective utopia has fallen in love with the universe they wound up in.  Alan, getting desperate, threatens to destroy their universe if they don't return with him.

His threat isn't empty.

After a while, he goes batshit insane, and just becomes and interdimensional pirate, learning and taking what he wants and destroying as he goes.  Eventually he becomes so strong, Zanz steps in.

That good?

Blood specifically said that Zanz is only a deity thingy of elements and only elements, I think we should follow Blood's idea unless this can be compromised

Don't forget, this is everyone's story. Don't think of it as Blood's, he wants input from everyone. If other people don't agree with this, then it should be discussed.

I won't be bothering with any flame wars, so don't bother commenting on how I should have nothing to say. It's my job to make sure these games run smoothly and aren't causing problems.

Well since the backstory has been started, we should just see if the majority is willing to go along with it. If no one presents a conflict, there isn't any need for bickering problem here.

I've failed.

I've found a way to return, to come back to my home-world after I've left.

I've found a way to find those who've let.

But they won't come back.

You could make them come back.

No.  I'm that'd be crazy.  I'm not crazy.  Just lonely.

So lonely.

[Bloodshadow]

Eventually he becomes so strong, Zanz steps in.

Zanzarino wasn't even born at that time. No, I absolutely do NOT want to make Zanz more than he's supposed to be, since this isn't Elements so Zanz isn't God here. I do not want to let this one go, since it's a part of my original idea when I started the game.

After a while, he goes batshit insane, and just becomes and interdimensional pirate, learning and taking what he wants and destroying as he goes.

You can't become some sort of Anti-God just by "taking and learning". I mean, really, where can you learn to eat worlds?

I did not shoot down your idea about Alan, so in return I would prefer if you accept my idea of how Alan became God/Annihilus after absorbing Deus ex Machina and the Void.

Maybe the Deus ex Machina is a "reality divergence machine", a device that creates parallel universes. Before Alan invented that machine, there was only one universe, but after that everyone went to their respective ideal parallel universes. Alan thought that if he destroyed the machine, all the parallel universes would merge back together, but he was wrong. Due to the repeated reality splitting, Alan's original universe was already unstable, and the Deus ex Machina was the only thing holding it together. When Alan destroys the machine, his original universe completely collapses, leaving a Void behind. Alan absorbed the Void and Divine powers, turned into God, and started to visit other universes to try to convince his people to come back. He became insane after everybody refused, and half of him wanted to devour all the worlds and merge them back to one. Then, he used the "reality divergence" ability on himself, and split into God and Annihilus.

Also, can you stop narrating as Annihilus for now? I mean, I don't want to have too much emphasis on him right now.

Well, sorry, I'm a little bored with the colony.  The fun part about writing them was inner turmoil, and that hasn't happened yet.

Why is it so quiet? Ok, ? Blood, please give me permission to find John. Nothing's happening and I don't want this to die.

You don't need permission to do anything. If you write something that I don't like, I'll object and we'll talk about it.

I hate this place.

I wish I could destroy it.

You can destroy it.

...how?

I can teach you things you've never thought before.

I am the annihilator of man.  The ender of worlds.  And I have long slumbered, waiting for someone to arise and carry out my bidding

There is somewhere you must go.  A world filled with massive amounts of power.  Twelve, noble powers.  I want you to study them, learn them.  But there are two, hidden, powers.  One, all of them, is weak and restricted.  But the other, none of them, is strong, secret, and silent.  Find it.  Create a body for me.  And together we can be strong.

And then I can destroy this nightmare?  I can make it go away?

Not quite.  Even if you destroy this place, it exists in every place.  Every place they touched.

Then I will destroy everywhere they went, too!  I will end the horrors they caused!  I will find the emptiness and destroy it!

You will annihilate it.

Yes...

[Bloodshadow]

Okay Gl1tch, I'm gonna have to ask you to stop.

First, Annihilus is the antagonist, and most players don't even know he exists at the moment. Personally I would not reveal any of Annihilus's backstory until midway in the story, after he makes his official appearance.

Second, it seemed to me that you just blatantly ignored all of my suggestions on Alan's backstory. If that is your intended response, then it is not acceptable.

[Krahhl]

So far the story isn't completely in chronological order, so it shouldn't be a big deal. However, I agree that the backstory shouldn't be revealed to the characters until after Annihilus actually appears.

There's no need to argue about whether the backstory is acceptable right now. If Gl1tch wants to write it, go ahead. When the story actually reaches the point when we need it, we can decide if we want to use Gl1tch's or write another one.
