Write a script...about what?

 

[donut3.5]

Wolverabid certainly likes his greetings.
And there are plenty of people who could make a script (I assume you mean triggers), but I think you should add detail..

Indeed. This particular thread exemplifies why I go out of my way to provide some basic information to our newest friends.

The above was loer222's first post. He originally posted it in the Screenwriting, Storyboarding & Concept Creation forum: a typical, forgivable newbie error (lack of experience/familiarity). I simply moved the post here and left him a three-day redirect. Far more users will see his post in this forum and might be able to help if he provides more information.

And I always try to treat everyone the same (although I really, REALLY need to create a couple more "default welcome messages" as my standard one is now so old, tired, and worn out that a lot of users have obviously seen it too many times). Back to the ole' drawing board next week.

[Back on topic] Welcome loer222, we will find a "script" for you somehow!

Doh: that somehow went right over my head.

Concept:

• A young man or woman is unknowingly heir to arcane ancient magic and a powerful throne.

Storyboard:

1. Our protagonist's real identity is concealed at birth to protect him/her from unspecified hostile elements.
   
   
2. His/her home town (a seaport) is ravaged by barbarian invaders some 16-20 years later.
   
   
3. Our hero escapes by sea, stowing away on a pirate ship.
   
   
4. A supernatural hurricane develops and wrecks the vessel: days of clinging to a spar during the storm. One or two comrades may also survive.
   
   
5. Landfall: a mystical deserted isle. The hero must survive either savage natives and/or vicious wildlife.
   
   
6. Serious adventures: Henchmen may come and go, building up the party of trusted followers and while occasionally some of them bite the dust.
   
   
7. Eventually, a forbidding ruined castle or labyrinth is reached.
   
   
8. The hero learns of his/her destiny from a long deceased ancestor, powerful dragon, wizard or demigod.
   
   
9. The final quest: travel to another continent, stop a major war, rescue some damsels in distress, regain the family name and throne etc.

Dialog example:

Act III Scene II. Setting: The worm-riddled pirate sloop amid an ominous and threatening sea.

Pirate Petty-Officer (wielding lash): Ar, that's right ye landlubber you'll swab that deck clean or bleed to death tryin'! (crack)

Hero: It looks like a storm is brewing.

Pirate Captain: Shut it scum, we know what we're about. (kick)
