I'm aware I've suggested something along these lines, but...well...RotMG was a lot more fun when it was a much smaller number of close friends fighting against a superior foe. The scapheap days.

Nowadays, there's dozens of characters, and we can take down gods pretty easily. It's just not...you know...exciting. Challenging. Interesting. Fun.

You can post it here. Whoever runs it is probably going to be making changes anyways.

That was really because I had no idea of the balance of this game, I had never really been in a fight before and didn't know what stats would make him tough. That said if we wanted to do that we could put a one character per person limit on fights, that would make the fights a lot smaller and not so easy to just overwhelm the boss.

Well the person who suggests the plot usually runs it themselves but if you suggest it to someone else they might run with it

Well, how about and i know this is Cliche but..

"Ultra-Nationalist from south Korea begin a series of biological experiments to create monsters to infiltrate it's communist brother in the north. The Project is known as as "Phantom Fury" created shapeshifters with fluency in all human languages and an almost uncanny ability to learn. but things go bad when the Director of the program is assassinated by one of the original monsters Phantom fury created. The original member was the first infiltrator to go in to north Korea and even complete a reconnaissance mission of a Communist nuclear test. The Ultra-Nationalist thought it a success but months went by and the original was lost..missions to find her were of no use and the only clue was her supposed "mark" in he heads of North Korean Generals and Smaller Government officials.

The original calls herself Dapheline and she has already a following with her of fellow monsters and cultists who believe she is a messiah who will save the world. Her true intentions are unknown and the Ultra-Nationalist of South Korea are too powerless to find out or ask for help from their government for fear of what judicial reprisals will be given for their illegal experiments and bribery to have kept the project secret."

So basically you have North Korea whos pissed at the world and anyone not them with a monster problem caused by a Group in south Korea who had no Government support/not fully knowing what was going on, and now you have monsters going to and from the border causing death/destruction/cult rituals/Revenge and all kinds of evil.

If the thread is more traditional magic girl then this would need to be toned down QUITE a bit, but not entirely impossible.


How the characters finds out is up to whoever wants to do this type of plot and i left out the true intentions because the players/GM know more about there game then me. So yeah lots of chances to fill in by them. Thoughts?

Well, I already know how they would find out considering that one of the characters is tied to a secret organisation that deals in capturing and then reforming monsters.

And why does everyone keep thinking IRIS intentionally makes deadly things?

Can someone tell me about IRIS?

Also..these aren't humans they are literally biological nightmares with barely enough bone to hold their flesh from falling off or turning into a blob.

Your going to have to kill/defeat them to grab their DNA spheres, in which case they can be "reborn" and tell you what they know.

IRIS is pretty much an organization that battles the supernatural, and accidentally making pokemon along the way. Many characters are in IRIS like Kyle, Kate, Alucard, Bartimaeus, ICARUS, and more.

Which reminds me Elf, you have still not signed me up for the second plot (the one containing the HYDRA bot), eventhough it was approved ages ago

Regardless, we just can't make a halfway-threatening plot without invoking the Powers That Be or else just cheating.

And why does everyone keep thinking IRIS intentionally makes deadly things?
Because they skim the surface of the lore to get the gist of it, then ignore the rest as it fits their preconceptions, plots, and petty desires.

on a note, several of the made suggestions do fall into my plot, or rather the whole plotline. If you guys really want, I can also ramp up the difficulty to a level where you have really superior foes
