If you recall, a while back we took a break from discussing each others mothers sexual orientation and ended up on Daeron/Louie's (THE HELL HAVE YOU GUYS GONE?) idea for a comic strip.
Well, I believe I may have found a way for a more enjoyable comic/short story to come out quicker and easier.
Now, on the old Comic forum, we discussed ideas such as FT members becoming a special forces group, a world wide tournament, or random shit like Everybody on earth becoming pigs for a day and it's FTs job to herd them. Kay, maybe I dreamed that.
So here's the pitch, Mr. Executive. Anything related to fighting will not end well. We'll all get into fights that would have 0 excitement because it's fucking paper. Don't get me wrong, their will be some fights, just not centered on it.
So, not a violent gore fest (at least not ONLY). That leaves us with one thing we all love: Comedy.
I present to you, The Who, Where, and What.
WHO
I racked my brains thinking about who the main characters should be, but could not think of a sure fire winner that would leave everybody happy. So I concluded: Why not use the universally-adored Y.M.C.A.? I know, I know, Juno should be the star. While this does sound poetically just, it just would not be possible for me to write dialogue for him, as I do not know how he would react to certain things. However, he will still play a major part (He's God). I chose the Y.M.C.A because it's a good cast of funny people, we have chemistry, we all come from different walks of life, and we're already established as the main group on FT. So, Y.M.C.A. are the stars. Now, everybody else will be secondary members of the cast (As in, they appear frequently, but not in every episode).
Now, as for the villans, I had to do some thinking, as we're all pretty cool people. I didn't wanna use Anonymous or any other trolls, because that'd be glorifying them. So, I will list some fighttips regulars who I think would make good villans. If you are named and disagree with being a bad guy, tell me. I'll change it just to not get slapped around.
Possible Villans:
Dimitry (Obvious.)
EasyKO (I base this on his avatar. The orange skin. The shades. The cocky ass grin. LOOK AT HIS AVATAR AND TELL ME HE DOES NOT REMIND YOU OF A JOCK)
Stuart (Again, judging by his avatar. This is a tough call though, so Imagine him as the douchebag popular kid from high school who was only really a douche because he was impressing his friends. Actually not that bad)
Homiesdontknowaboutsparta (Something about him makes me think 'This guy would make a good Crip'.)
Sshmitz (Damessiah's rival for life, although he gets along with Tony okay)
Throw any more names at me, or tell me to take some down. Whatevs. On to the main protagonists. After their bio (This applies to SOME CHARACTERS ONLY) I will put a list of skills they have.
The Y.M.C.A.
The Y.M.C.A is a group of fighters from Codysville. They are infamous for the amount of fights they have been in. They are enemies of a lot of police, save for one cop, as they have been in a large amount of trouble with the law. The story follows them as they try and live more like normal young-adults, rather than the guys from A Clockwork Orange. They are still to this day rivals of the Assholes.
TonyV:
Tony is a laid back guy who is paying for college by working at Neo's Rave (More on that later). He is life-long friends with PinStripes, and the two frequently smoke blunts, eat hamsters, and kick babies, or some shit. Tony is hoping that, after college, he can join the NOAM Army (More on NOAM later). So, untill then, he gets basic training from the Codyville Rifles, where TrevDawg is also a member. He used to be a member of the 'Popular assholes' from around town, but left when he saw their former leader beat up an old man.
Skills- Basic firearms training, some melee weapons training, strong in Muay Thai, high strength, can hold his liquor.
PinStripes:
Pin is laid back, but for other reasons: He is always high. Ten to twelve times a day he tokes, and that keeps him calm. When he is not high, he is always pissed off. He once punched a moving jeep. He has come to the point, however, where he acts just like everybody else while high. TrevDawg is always trying to get him to stop, but to no avail. He works at the local Chip n' Dales fry stand, as well as the outdoor movie theatre. He is trying to raise money to propose to his girlfried.
Skills-Very Strong in MMA, he 'knows some people in low places', has access to several handguns, very seductive and has been known to get laid up to six times a day by different women.
TrevDawg:
Unlike Pin, who is only angry when not high, TrevDawg is always angry. He just hides it well. Even the smallest thing sets him off. That being said, he is still a good guy and is often very apologetic to people he hurts. He is a Corporal in the Codyville Rifles, and is on the same training team as Private Tony. He is the best shot in the state/province, and once shot a wick from a birthday candle at two hundred yards. He works at a sporting goods store.
Skills-Basic Krav Maga, Extreme Firearm skills, a very tactical mindset, has access to crates full of Drugs and Acohol (Being Canadian), and is just as funny as his friends.
Damessiah:
The perverbial runt of the litter. DaMESSIah, hereby reffered to as 'Messi' just recently moved to Codyville. He instantly had a liking taken to him by TrevDawg, who introduced him to Tony and Pin. Things were rocky at first, but no Messi is a member of the group. He is sometimes picked on by the Assholes, and is trying to learn Muay Thai from Tony. Untill he get's good enough, it's up to The rest of the gang to back him up. Messi works as a Limo Driver for a local Limo Company.
Skills-Very Polite (Infront of authority), knows how to talk his way out of a situation, has people backing him up, basic Muay Thai and basic Krav Maga, and knows how to drive a limo.
Secondary characters:
Juno:
He's God. Several times he will help the Y.M.C.A., but he usually just chills in his Earth-Vacation Home.
SOUL:
A friend of the Y.M.C.A. He has many times backed up the guys if the other members weren't in the area. He known as the best fighter in Codysville, a title which puts him and PinStripes in the ring together at times. He is cousins of Masato, the current NOAM World Champion. SOUL works as the bouncer at Neo's Rave.
NeoRave:
The owner and manager of Neo's Rave. He is a constant source of help for the Y.M.C.A. Neo rave imigrated from Never Neverland to NOAM, and speaks fluent Dutch. He is also personally close to TrevDawg, as Neo is engaged with TrevDawg's cousin.
Toxic:
An amateur Stand-Up comedian. He is Demassiah's next door neighbor, and thus the two are on good terms. Toxic and Pin have a slight grudge against each other, as Pin once stole Toxic's girlfriend. Nevertheless, Toxic occasionally hangs out with the Y.M.C.A.
Johanath:
Codyville's resident hero. He works as a Paramedic, and was once called to a gunshot wound call. He entered the residence and was taken hostage by a crazed gunman, who demanded $10, 000 dollars for his return. Johan managed to disarm the gunman, who accidentally shot himself. Johan applied first aid to the man and restrained him for the police to collect. He is very wise, and is well-known by the Y.M.C.A, as he had treated them many times for fight inflicted wounds. Johan does his best to help the guys when they come to him with a problem, and has several times risked being fired just to make sure they got out of a situation unharmed.
Luther:
He works with TrevDawg, behind the Permit-Only gear (I.E. Guns) counter. TrevDawg and Luther get along well, but Luther has only met TrevDawg and Messi from the Y.M.C.A. Trev refuses to introduce Luther to Tony, as Tony had once beat up Luther and went as far as to stab him (Bakc when he was an Asshole). Luther is a good guy, and is willing to help a bit when he can, such as taking TrevDawg's shift so he can go camping.
Peter (Smith):
The rich, spoiled, brat. He is Granny Smith's Grandson, and is a heir to the apple juice-companies fortune. This being said, he liked to try and better himself as a person, usually trying to use money to do so. He has been both a friend and an enemy to the Y.M.C.A, as he has funded the Assholes with money for weapons before.
The New Guy:
He just moved to Codyville. He's still getting used to the place, and trying to make friends. He has hung out with both the Y.M.C.A. AND the Assholes, so both groups are suspisious of him.
Fighterboi:
The leader of the 'Bucks', another group of people in Codyville. Unlike the assholes and the Y.M.C.A, the Bucks are an actual criminal gang. Fighterboi is close with Pin, as Fighterboi is his drug dealer as well as childhood friend. This friendship has lead to the Bucks occasionally aiding the Y.M.C.A.
JollyRoger:
A pirate. Well, technically. He works at the 'Crown Royal', a pirate themed bar. He doesn't care much for the Y.M.C.A, and is friends with Stuart, so could therefore be considered a 'Villan', except for the fact that he saved TrevDawg's life after he started choking on some of the Bar's food. For this reason, TrevDawg demands the rest of the Y.M.C.A keep their hands of Jolly.
Daeron:
Owns a sushi shop. He very rarely appears in the store, and can usually be found at Neo's Rave.
Louie:
A struggling cartoonist. He is an alcoholic who once slapped Tony, hoping for Tony (A well known tough guy) to beat him sensless, so he could file a lawsuit to fund his artistic dreams. Tony did not strike him, and instead told him about the Codyville Rifles, which he promptly joined. He is hoping for deployment in Kazistania some time soon.
Nate:
TrevDawg's drinking buddy. I'm not going to ruin anything for you guys, but he is not what he appears to be.
So, those are the characters. Others may show up when needed.
WHERE
The story takes place in Codyville, located in Manitexas, NOAM. NOAM stands for NOrth AMerica, as Canada and the United States have combined in order to fight the Russian, Chinese, and Brazilian forces that are trying to invade.
WHAT
I considered what kind of storyline I liked in OTHER sources of media before coming to a conclusion as to what I wanted the story to be like.
The following are shows/books/movies I have drawn inspiration from:
South Park: The show is about four friends who basically live their life in a small town while wild things happen to them. Hell, we could even say what FT character's SP counter part is (TrevDawg=Stan, Pin=Kyle, Tony=Cartman, Messi=Butters, Neo=Chef etc.)
My Name Is Earl: Pin, Tony, and TrevDawg are trying to get away from their less-than-legal pasts and do good things.
Harold and Kumar: Two stoners (Pin and Tony) going on drug fueled adventures.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2: The Russians are attempting to invade, and every town has a Militia force that can be called into duty to defend NOAM.
The Bourne Idnetity: One Word: NATE.
Intervention: TrevDawg occasionally tries to get Pin and Tony of the drugs, and multiple times tried to stage an intervention, but it always fails comicly.
Two and a Half men: Some of the stories will involve the Y.M.C.A. trying to get some.
So their you have it. My outline for the Fighttips comic/short stories. Feel free to pitch ideas for storylines, locations, people, or (And I'll need help with this) Jokes.
Toss me a PM if you want me to change you characters standing.
