So! I would like to intro Gypsum soon, but I wanted to put out feelers for anyone who might be interested in playing with him. I have a couple of ideas around what I would like to do with him as an intro, but I wanted to plot it out a bit beforehand so I didn't box him into a corner or get him stranded somewhere.
The Certain Bits:
-Gyp is being dropped off by an NPC merchant ship, which will turn around and book it back to business as soon as he's clear.
-For entertainment value he's being dropped off in the middle of a cornfield, with presumably a farmer with a pickup somewhere within 50 miles to pick up his Earth alt from.
The Negotiable Bits:
-The continent he is dropped off on. So as long as there is a cornfield and a farmer with a pickup, I'm good. I had poked at the thought of Midwestern USA, but it does not have to be.
-After I intro him being dumped in a cornfield and being a bit "...what do." about life, existence and dodgy existential choices, I am fine with either someone encountering him right off the bat, or he can wander about the countryside on his own for some period of time in order to set up for an encounter with another character. Or some other option I haven't thought of yet.
What I need halp with:
-Figuring out how to dump him into the company of other characters.
-Finding someone willing to point him towards the neut base.
- A way to get his trudgy grounder self there if I bring him down somewhere other than Africa.
So that's about it. I'm open to ideas, so as long as I can entertain my two certain bits bulletpoints more or less, and have him get to the neutral base. Any takers? Ideas? Questions?
