If this turns out to be good I’m gonna keep it in my back pocket for the next time I have a psych patient who really likes to creatively write (…and is also not actively detached from reality LOL)
This is the google sheet (idk how else to make a set of 6 tables vision-impairment friendly)
- What’s your theme?
- What’s your plot?
- Who’s your hero?
- Who’s your villain?
- Who’s your side character?
- What’s your wild card?
- …what’re you doing with it?
Mythic Greek World Rescue Fierce Barbarian Serial Killer Eager Apprentice Androids
trying to find a way to work all these components together (especially the androids) is an interesting thought process, though i think having them be divinely powered is what i’m leaning towards. like, no one knows how they work, and so they kind of revere them.
for the rescue plot, i think the eager apprentice sounds like the right one to need rescuing. too eager, not careful enough maybe. captured by serial killer i suppose, who could be an android for extra funsies, and the barbarian main character gets to go save them. probably all while realizing/coming to terms with the fact that they actually DO like the apprentices company and miss them, despite finding them very annoying in the beginning.
i think it’s a cool idea and gets you to stretch some creative muscles with connecting some unrelated ideas and imagining what a story involving these elements might be like :)
