Now that Episode Eight is underway and both teams are back from their missions, Dr. Black is safely in the infirmary and it seems both teams are at a loose end. Perhaps we can cobble together some active roleplayers including John Callaghan and Ahrima for a short story we can create together.
The Premise: Another routine off-world exploration mission, searching for ZPMs and trade partners etc. We could play out the idea of a planet besieged by zombie-like people. Your typical zombie apocalypse, pockets of survivors here and there - some doing better than others. Perhaps the people of this world know of the Stargate, perhaps not? Was this another experiment into ascension by the questionable ancient named Lillith? Was it a weapon sent by the Etruscan half-ascended being known as Laran? What will we do when we first fly over in the Jumper and witness swarms of zombie-like creatures? We can't save everyone? Do we shut off their Stargate to stop this plague spreading to other worlds?
Just an idea, another short idea I had was as follows...
Second Premise: Submarine based adventure. We are visiting a cold-war era planet that looks promising in terms of an ally to recruit in the eventual fight we'll take to Laran and his fleet of super warriors/ships. Whilst there, it is quickly established that The Etruscans are fully aware of this world and are on their way to eliminate the threat. Leading to us being cut off from the Stargate and making a hasty escape with the leaders of this world into a nearby nuclear powered submarine the planet had just designed and commissioned. The ocean is vast and we spend the next few weeks playing a game of hide and seek/cat and mouse hiding from various Etruscan machines and ships that they send down to seek us out. We could play with ideas such as staying silent when being scanned and making sneak attacks to try to reach the Stargate... Could be fun!
