Destrillians: Awakening - Discussion Thread

So, in this thread we discuss the thing that was done and get everyone on the same page for what the deal is here.

Considering we can't use any of the old elements from Channy's Awakening, a complete revamp of the story from everything from how they escaped to the format of the facility itself needs to be reworked.

So, the brainstorming will be happening up in here:

Did we actually figure out how they escaped? Besides, y'know, past the entire building collapsing? :monster:

How about brainstorming like the thread suggests instead of just asking? Destrillians as a whole is meant to be a collaborative thing. :monster:

Plus, we've just restarted Awakening. Might as well let the story flow a bit and let it develop so we can get a good idea of how they can possibly escape.

I asked because I distinctly remember people outlining in their S2 bios what exactly happened after they escaped. Some people even detailed what happened during the escape, or at least towards the end of the escape.

I know it's a complete overhaul, but it could at least coincide with what people have written for their current characters.

Kaden didn't feature in Awakening, but his escape was pretty much The Day The Wolves Came Out Of The Walls.

And when the wolves come out of the walls, it's all over (red rover). :monster:

Hmmm... Kram's asleep, Tao's trapped in some dimension, the brothers are off hunting, Ralph and Joe are off scheming. Unable to interact.


Have fun, folks! Can't wait to see the results!

This is why she is a failure.

I am having the most hilarious images pop into my head.

Like, wolves done in old school Disney animation like the Effalumps and Woozles bit from the original Winnie the Pooh movie.

It's actually a reference to a Neil Gaiman kids story, The Wolves in the Walls. :monster: Although in my previous post, I got the title mangled up with another of his kids' stories, The Day I Swapped My Dad for Two Goldfish.

So, the art style is

does coraline count as a kid's book
Also, The Graveyard Book. :awesome:
Tbh I would class stardust and neverwhere as kids books also.
Well, you could call Stardust a young adult's book, as it has swearing ("Fuck.") and sex scenes. Neverwhere, more of a stretch, but the original idea the BBC had for it was a children's drama (Neil went with "what if we make homelessness look too cool" (he would)).

If the northern lights books can be classed as a kids series then stardust falls under this also XD

Thats the Northern Lights mind. Not The Golden Compass.

And, adhering to common Destrillian thread etiquette, absolutely nothing relevant is talked about. (Ilu guys really. <3)

SO. What does everyone know about William?

Quick Fact Sheet:

-He's our new Destrillian #005 (Darkness)

-His powers overlap a little with Kram's, but more than physical darkness ie dark matter or whatnot, Will controls a more figurative, 'evil' type. Like he can make you suicidal. :awesome:

-He's a pretty psychopathic guy: completely charming on the outside but just EMPTY under the surface.

-He has a history of being able to enter a state of Derinium and come out pretty much unharmed, which is definitely something to boast about.

-The kickstart of the escape is that Viola is in the process of conducting an experiment to see if they can inject the Lyverius chemical compound into Will to permanently switch off headaches/elevate his powers to that of a Lyverius/see what will happen/etc. That does not go well.

-Will essentially goes on a killing spree-- he's also trying to destroy the building itself, bit by bit. The power will go out (hence "going dark") and it is for that reason that the Dessies will be able to get out.

-The Plot in a Nutshell: escape Viola and take down Will

Oh, and he

Hands up if you see a resemblance to a frog with those eyes. O:3 I know I do.

Kram's darkness is a baby's compared to Will's ultimate darkness. This is a frightening omen.

Genuine query, has there been a format or layout or length for the project that seems especiqlally good to anyone? Helpfully suggestive, I have a few ideas if anyone is interested.

MOAR:

In addition to waking up and finding that the facility that they know and love now looks like a Resident Evil laboratory gone the way of Bioshock. The Dessies have no idea as to what the cause of the bloody carnage and utter destruction actually is. So in addition to teaming up to escape, their primary motivation might be finding out what the fuck has actually happened. Some of our Dessies might not even be all that thrilled about leaving their home afterall.

The only thing I really want to happen is that when our guys finally make it up to the surface world, their final confrontations happen at sunrise. Because rule of cool. And it makes sense given that the whole events of the prologue will take place over one night.

As for length? I was operating under the assumption that there's enough plot to be roughly equal to the length of one act from Aftermath
