in MPQ General Discussion

While we are waiting for the Unity Engine overhaul, let's give the Dev's their first new PVE event a custom plot!

We shall create the story, one line at a time. Each forumite adding a new line to the script, after the person before them. Create whatever you fancy!

Let's see what story we can come up with!

--- the scene starts on a frosty night in the forest on the outskirts of the X-Mansion. Nightcrawler is reading poetry upside-down amongst the branches - his favourite getaway. With his acute hearing and smell, his senses kick in. Someone or something is approaching his position...---

    Bustapup:

    It's Polaris! "I wish they would Nerf that green haired harpy" Nightcrawler thinks as he opens another beer and his thoughts drift to how sexy Wolverine looks in shorts. "Yummy!" he announces not realising he has said so out loud but more than Polaris is lurking in the X-Mansion grounds, his forbidden passion witnessed by...

    Probably a Leapfrog Support, darn it!

    "X-Men, I need you! But not the blue ones" said the bird lady with an entire galactic empire at her command including super space cops.
    "Ach nien, Volkswagen Bayern Munich!" said Nightcrawler
    "That's right Bub!" said Wolverine who had been there all along together with the rest of the X-Men as Nightcrawler had been speaking very loudly.
    "Into the obvious Space trap!" Commanded Cyclops
    As the mutant heroes apart from the blue ones leapt into almost certain death Professor X sighed
    "Guess I have some rooms to rent. Hank put an advert in the paper, rooms to rent in ridiculous mansion, one has slight beer fart smell"
    Meanwhile in a galaxy far away (maybe)...

    I hope they release a 5* Ms Lion to go with my Hellcow - Squeee!

    ...I guess this is just me now, said the narrator of some of the story so far, I guess we keep going? Just pretend it isn't me really, it is uhm...Slidecage! Yes.

    "X-Men! I am 5* Gladiator (shards in release event which is Meet Rocket & Groot?!?!?! But we are writing a new PvE here right here for hi...oh fine, Marvel said it has to be Rocket & Groot), Praetor of the Imperial Guard! You are under arrest!"
    "We know who you are, this is like the 87th time we've met you!" Storm said rather grumpilly.
    "So who has invaded yer empire this time bub? Skrulls, Kree, ALF? Mork & Mindy? You guys are always getting invaded!"
    "Silence! By the bristling hairs of my mohawk, such insolence!" Gladiator said, his mohawk looking very bristled
    "What's a Praetor any way? That space talk for cop, sugah?"
    "Foolish Rogue! A Praetor is an uhm, well you see it means, uhm...look that isn't important right now! To the space cells!"
    "I'm not going to jail, I have a hair appointment in 30 minutes. Just tell us who we have to fight and we can get on with it." Psylocke wearily intoned.
    "Isn't anybody going to ask me what is going on?" said Lilandra who probably should have explained things a bit more.
    "Nah! Let's fight! Unexplained brawls for no apparent reason are our stock in trade, bubess, it's snikting time!"

    I can't be bothered to fight, the stuff in this vault is just junk, not even worth opening. Didn't even get an ascended.

    Ooops, sorry, back on with the story!

    For the 88th time, it's fighting time!

    Bluewolf helped out with this next bit:

    So why did Gladiator want the X-Men arrested? It was probably because in Fantastic Four 250 there were these skrulls who pretended to be the X-Men (shown in flashback in this PvE) and Gladiator now thinks that the X-Men are always skrulls. Which is fair enough actually because in Uncanny X-Men 275 the skrulls did it again but this time also Lilandra and Prof X, so it does make sense. Wolverine was also right, the Shi'ar Empire is mostly useless at defending itself from getting taken over. Like when Deathbird did it that time.

    Anyway...

    That said, after a mighty space battle The X-Men were saved by 4* Ch'od & Sikorsky and taken on the Starjammers ship, that group of space pirates where they...

    ...met the newest Starjammer, 5* Wasp!

    Written by Mr. F:

    Even though 5* Wasp wasn't the best Starjammer or even really better than the mini helicopter one, they were going to have adventures for the sake of it!

    Now I'm champed nothing can stop me, said Wasp but then all of a sudden, the Starjammers ship got hit by...

    ...Captain Marvel! Surely here C5rol would find a team to be useful on, having never recovered from that stealth nerf she got.

    "Come with me everybody, we'll find a use for me yet!"

    Beacuse the X-Men always blindly follow anybody whop tells them to, they eagerly departed!

    ThaRoadWarrior might have written this one...

    Daz having some sort of breakdown at the moment. I hope he gets the help he clearly needs.

    Some big questions. Which characters are Clem and Daz? Which one is the hero and who is the evil one?

    Clem and Daz are like the two sides of The Sentry - one is a shiny beacon of hope who drinks too much and forgot who he was and the other is a lurking shadow of depravity.

    This should be put to a vote, purely on the fact it would amuse me
