010113 -- Wrap Up Discussion ============================ AUTHOR: dsweet COMPOSED: 1/22/01 UPDATED: 1/23/01 STORY: Dave decided that the James Bond scenario ended so I would have started wrapping up the campaign. Eric's campaign is ready to run so we decided to just have me describe the end of the campaign. The next scenario was supposed to be about the intrepid mall rats going to the home world of the Teletubbies. Lets hope the group would have been able to reestablish communications with the Tubbies omnipotent home world so they could grow up to be omnipotent benevolent beings themselves. Before heading to the Teletubbie planet Dolores would have informed them that Lumiere had switched sides and that Other World's Travel was working to use DI's technology in conjunction with their own to be able to merge timelines on purpose. After spending some downtime eating Tubbie Tustard and playing with bunnies the heroes would be transported back to the Universal Timeline. Fortunately, the merging of the technologies took no time. The gist of the way it works is that the physical location in the Universal Timeline corresponding to location the agents zap into in the alternate timeline must be saturated by neutrinos resonating at the same rate as those emitted from the Star in which the home world of OWT Orbits around. The universal ID of adjacent timelines would merge with the timeline being saturated. From the occupants of the timelines' point of view coincidence, extremely unlikely events and paradoxes would suddenly crop up and causing the merging. For instance, the death of Eric Fulton's original character who would later become a great force of good had he survived died as a result of an incredibly unlikely bullet hit to the brain. The technology is new and of course needs to be tested so OWT wants their most experienced team to go on a mission where the technology would be implemented. Accompanied by a team of elite guards the group step into the prison world. Strangely, the whole group do not land on top of the dam as expected be instead in the wizard's castle moments before Amber would have stepped onto the ward that would have killed her. Amber who is alive and with the group from the moment they step through the portal yells out a warning saving herself. Amber saves herself. Whem Amber is asked where she has been she tells everyone she has been with them all along. Don't you all remember when I saved myself just now and how all of us stormed the damn freeing the valley. Assuming the party doesn't rewrite Amber's history, the groupX2 (since there are now two of everyone) go free all the creatures held captive in the mine and then with their help climb the damn's fortification in a bloody battle. If any characters who are in this timeline for the first time die their copies disappear in a puff of never existence. After the successful mission, the group step through and back to the Universal Timeline. At which point they find their copy gone and sharing the memories of both. The team gets a heroes welcome. Everyone is ecstatic. The test went perfect. The GM stops referring to you all as would be heroes. He looks at all of your character sheets and hopes you all have about 250 XP. He might distribute a bunch of point. The next mission, which has to be done right away, since DI will probably be reeling for a while is going to be pissed. The next mission is to prevent the destruction and of the OWT head quarters at the Rocky Beach Mall. This action, combined with all OWT's efforts at it's full strength for these past months, crush the DI's support structure. Though the party still could have many missions ahead of them if they wish to unify the timelines into a more perfect relatity, they could step into their old lives at this point. Anyone going back to their old lives will be treated as heroes by society because for some reason they happened to step out of that focus group just in to save the Mall from a terrorist attack.
