Storm those brains!

Time for another brainstorming post! With newbies coming in I'm sure there are plenty of ideas folks have to kick around. So kick away! Only, yanno, gently. Because otherwise the ideas get bruised and it's horrible and sad.

OCD is up! Storm away!

Plot spare parts

With newbies coming in we may have more of these. Here's what we had last time (http://community.livejournal.com/fhplotterywheel/101297.html?thread=2489777#t2489777) in case you need an idea of what a plot spare part is.

Tony's a wizard! Except that he's just starting out and trying to teach himself magic from a home-instruction course left to him by a wizard from another dimension. As he tries to learn new spells, it's pretty much guaranteed that something will go wrong.

So if you need a bit of wacky magic for anything, I'm up for it.

More on Tony's magic.

Dor can make inanimate objects talk and make them tell anything that might have happened while they were in someone's possession or reveal their own nature.

In the somewhat unlikely event that someone has a plot that involves people trying to physically torture someone for information, Tahiri won't be breaking and spilling information everywhere. Just throwing that out there. ;)

As I mentioned in her info post - Joan is pretty much a walking plot device.

God frequently appears to her and gives her random tasks/assignments. She never knows what the point is but they always do have some sort of impact.

For example - in "Drive, He Said" - God tells Joan not to reschedule her driver's license test for the fifth time. He keeps showing up and insisting that she go and take the exam. She does and she gets her license. Later, God shows up and tells her to take her brother for a drive. They end up stumbling across their father, who had been car-jacked and wrecked his car on purpose to escape. If they hadn't found him, he likely would have died from his injuries.

So if you ever need a catalyst for anything for your character, I'd be happy to have Joan receive an order from God to do *something* and help that along :D
