it's actually multiple word documents and a lot of it hasn't made it on paper yet from my brain cause I kept changing it so much.

Originally it was a fanfic of LoZ...that was complete garbage cause 8-9 years ago I was influenced by Sonic the Hedgehog a bit too much...
then it evolved into a childish version that could resemble a sort super hero pilot vs a band of pirates.

Then I started adapting it into a "throw typical stereotype story writing out the door and make the main character a real rebel. Thus "Arrow" was born...and in the original thing he was a renegade pilot who was conspiring against the Venturian Empress (originally had Venturia as an empire with Avonna as the ruler.) In a sense it was like Star Wars...except backwards in roles of the Empire and Rebels...

Then I adapted the hero vs pirate concept to something that resembles part I to a degree...

Then I added a part II and III, which then became the Eternal Galaxy Trilogy of "Shards of Starlight," "Blaze of Chaos," and "Echoes of Time." and it spanned a larger time period where Arrow and Co. would be older and then the fight would be placed more upon their children (this was back when Star Fox: Command was still on shelves)

Then writers block.

Then I discovered Touhou and Flandre...and that immediately destroyed my writers block and I overhauled the entire story to incorporate Anankerisa...who was the result of me reading Flandre's wiki page and saying "Geez, this little girl is like an insane goddess of destruction and chaos...waitamin..."

And so after I eliminated the Original part II: Blaze of Chaos...I created what I have now to a degree.
And I've been refining ever since, changing concepts, debating which ending of the 5 I've created I should use...etc. etc.

And pretty much, everything is following the basic things I had in my head quite well. Of course so far there's no one affecting Aion's plot thus far and that is the main stream so to tamper with that would to deviate from my original idea...and I want that to happen...

Aye, and by forcing myself to move forward with it by putting it into an RP is so far the only way this is getting really written. Also things are mild right now. Around mid way of part I is when we transition from a normal war to a race against the clock to save the galaxy. Then part II is when I mess with minds. Specifically Aion's.

Also what's interesting is the fact that on the side lines of the mainstream, I've introduced Anankerisa well before when she's supposed to first show up...which was chapter 7 of Part II.
I have no idea what possessed me to do that...but it worked quite well so Idk what my subconscious has in mind for that...

EDIT: and thank ye so much for the compliment, it really makes me feel like this will get somewhere at last.

For some reason I think that Mara will have to stick with the little one for a while in the story

Hey guys I'm back... I see S121 left for a week... *screams on a mental level*

Well... I guess I'm stuck doing NOTHING Until he returns...

*Damn...*

BTW thinking of how Cucoo turned a story he was/is writing into an RP made me think of doing the same thing with a story of my own. Though I might not... or will! (Seriously IDK...)

Actually, I'll be honest, I'm kinda using Anankerisa to slowly get Mara into the mainstream. Mima is about to enter it in two more chapter update posts. Of course, if the freighter is headed for Celestora, you can guess when Mara may get caught into the mainstream. Cicero, Nero, Eleos before the Egale section and having Anankerisa now are merely means to get people into the mainstream. I sort of want that to happen for now so that I can focus on the chapters and have everyone become a part of the main story rather than minor side-quests. That way, I could incorporate everyone into endgame sequences smoothly for part I.
....though the more I think about it...I'm not really certain how to go about it. Maybe the side-quests become more relevant for the story as they set up aspects...
hmm....gotta think it through....
this is so addicting for me right now ^^;

@ Sustic

It really isn't that hard to convert. You just have to have enough flexibility built into the overall story so that it adapts fluidly and allows for a very broad cast of characters.
Throw it past us, what's the basic plot of your story?

Also, the "was/is" thing you put there is quite accurate to how I feel about it. but in technical terms it's currently being written via the RP, cause I only really had a beginning and end with no middle.

Also for part IV, I was considering making a crossover where at least Aion or maybe the entire team travels back to old earth and wind up in Gensokyo...
the hilarity that would ensue with Gunner and Joe...

@Cucoo

You should make it into a actual book, sell it in stores and make millions.

@ Katrix
That's actually the big plan with it.
I'm just slowly writing the actual thing in parallel with the RP...though in a few years I'll probably refine it to the point where it will be worthy of book shelves everywhere...
Also, I'm kinda just slowly gaining real life experience to help shape the book a bit better. I'm hoping after college I'll have more time to do research on actual fighter pilot jargon, other than the little bit I do know from playing this old fighter flight simulator...
As well as back up a few things with actual science and develop a much more solid foundation for the overall story (maybe make a fictional language like Star Trek's Klingon, add a better explanation and better names for technological devices, etc. etc.)

I know it's not hard to convert a story into an RP.

The basic plot? Well it's set some time into the future where humanity has managed to create super humans catered to certain situations from near scratch (though took a while to actually successfully create.) Like for example the main character in my story Hajime AKA Project: Infinity (best name I could think of) was a super human created from the highly modified DNA of several people, and was one of the first Projects to actually have their own ability (in Hajime's case he was a super human with special Nano Machines in his blood stream allowing him to generate electrical energy, and plasma energy through his body (though is incredibly stressful on him.) Originally Hajime was created by the government to be sent into an enemy base, shut down the entire base with his electrical abilities. Thus in turn allowing a group of normal soldiers to sneak in while the place is out of power and take it down.

Hajime (currently at this point in time of the story he was called PROJECT: Infinity) though was considered to be an initial failure because he activated a few days earlier than his initial activation. In turn his abilities didn't fully activate yet, and due to how complex the process in creating him was complex (took more than 30 years to create.) Since the scientists thought he couldn't be successfully completed he was scheduled for termination. Fortunately Hajime escaped the base thanks to the help of one of the employees there. Once Hajime escaped from the government facility he took off into a lone city and took the name Hajime. After that a lot of things happened and Hajime ended up being the roommate of a girl named Kaname, developed a strong rivalry with a PyroKinetic (can create and control flames with his mind) human named Ryoji, and is now trying to hide from the government which is hot on his tail (it's kind of hard to hide from the government if you are a super human with electrical abilities who is constantly getting into trouble.)

Currently there is only 1 chapter written, and it has a little on the poor side in terms of spelling (because I wrote it with my bad laptop, and didn't have time to spell check it.) I haven't updated it in a long time.

The basic basic plot is: Government makes super humans, one very very special super human escapes, and is trying to hide from the government while trying to live a normal life.

There is a broad range of characters. There are some with psychic abilities, some with flat out supernatural abilities. It's kind of a sci-fi story mixed up with fantasy elements (as their will be super natural creatures in the story like spirits, demons, other people with psychic abilities, and other things as well. Yea it's THAT kind of world where advanced science and fantasy blends in somewhat.) It's also inspired by a series of other stories I've read/watched (especially anime.)

So one can have a character of their own creation with their own abilities, and skills in it if I do make it an RP.

Also if I do make it an RP I will have it set sometime after the initial story or so. That or I might make it take place during the current time in the story (2176.) I already have a lot of stuff planned for it. I just don't have the time to write it with my job and everything.

The main problem I would find making an RP based off of it is finding a main focus. Like what would the main goal be?
