Mafia: What's next?

I'd like to hear your suggestions for future Mafia scenarios. What universe would you like to play in?

A few of my ideas:

Hogwarts Mafia: David Bowles (hi2u David) and I ran a Harry Potter game around the time the second movie came out. Since then, there's been another movie and another book, and some fresh new material to work with, so I'd love to run another.

WoW Mafia: I don't know a whole lot about the game, having only played the lowbie end of it, but I'm willing to give it a go.

Lord of the Rings Mafia: Since it seems everyone here has read it or watched the movies, this seemed like an obvious choice.

Blade Runner Mafia: Something sci fi, perhaps? I don't know how many are familier with the story or movie, but I could keep it simple enough that you wouldn't have to read the book to keep up.

Soap Opera Mafia: I've always thought this would be a fun one. Something a little lighter and more funny than the usual dark and brooding things I tend to lean toward.

Fairy Tale Mafia: Play your favorite classic Fairy tale character!

OR

Shrek Mafia: This might have more plot potential than Fairy Tale Mafia, though I don't know if I can be as funny as those movies were :\.

Throw out your own ideas, or just post and say if you like something already suggested!

My husband is being a Marvel comic snob at the moment and refuses to give me any information on the universe unless we stay true to it.


How are you supposed to stay true to the universe if he wont give you any info?

"Well, since you wont tell me, Wolverines real name is now Slappy McPhereson, he has the ability to turn invisible at will, and drives a Ford Focus."

ROFL no kidding. He's not being rude about it, he's just very faithful to his comic lore. Part of what I love about him is his ability to tell a story, so he tells me all this stuff which makes me feel like a goofy goober when I started asking questions about it all. He now hands me his DC encyclopedia when I have questions during Teen Titans :teehee

If Phoenix is taken does that mean Jean is too?

What version of x-men will we go with?

Dibs on Rogue.

Can I be Aquaman. Figured I will be the only one able to breathe underwater and avoiding the lynch mob. :thumbsup

I doubt it, Aquaman is a DC comics character.

I think superheros would be to hard to write and to much of a stretch from the scenario to fit our needs.

The general idea being thrown around is that we're a new crop of Xmen, which gives us the ability to write our own mutant bios, instead of using preexisiting ones. We'll use the Xmen universe premise and make up our own scenerio. Otherwise we (= Geei and I since Verileah is playing this next round) really dont feel comfortable f9cking up a storyline we're not familiar with.

How's that sound?

ok, can we base charcters off real characters in the x-men universe then?
Geeii 21 years ago
you could, but I wouldn't have it be an exact duplicate....maybe a sibling, or son/daughter, because there will be some cameo's of 'NPCs' most likely. Perhaps instead of teh mod 'character' being one person, it could be several popular mutants...shrug we haven't really set anything into stone yet, atm.

Glad to see the excitement though, I am peeing my pants over here cause I get to run it with mae

Ok, I think I know how I want my character to be, it'll be sort of like a few partially mixed together.
Vulash 21 years ago
I"ll end up pissed at half the characters, especially all the super men :D
ROzbeans 21 years ago
Yeah no super duper invulnerable mutants either. =(
