Okay, in the unlikely event that my fellow players from the Starblazers Adventures game Shackled Horizons are reading this forum, please stop reading now, as this involves a plot I intend to use for the Doctor Who game I'll be running for you guys when I'm fully prepared.
Everyone else, here's what I've got so far:
Possibly set pre-Time War, this campaign follows the adventures of another group of travellers (possibly led by a Time Lord) through time and space.
Along the way, they start to notice and thwart a series of attempted interventions in the established course of history. The strange thing is that these interventions seem to be perpetrated by 'natives' to the time and place the travellers are visiting at the time.
What's stranger is that the later conspirators seem to recognise the party and are more prepared for their interference.
The reason is simple: all of the conspirators were being possessed by the same person via a form of temporal mind projection.
Tracing the signal to its source, the gang will eventually come across the base of operations of Project Puppet Master. It will soon become apparent that the scientists running this project are themselves under some form of mind control, and eventually they will discover the identity of the project director.
The Time Lord known as the Master. He had planned to alter earth's history in order to make its people more susceptible to his plans, and also to mess with the Doctor's head by altering the history of his beloved human race. Unfortunately, he hadn't expected the interference of another group of space/time travelling do-gooders, an oversight he plans to rectify in due course...
So, anyone have any thoughts, suggestions, etc? Feedback and advice is most welcome here. I'm particularly interested in suggestions as to events that the Master might try to alter for his purposes.
