I am going to be running a Doctor who game soon. My players have already made their characters. It turns out that there is a Timelord (who at the moment does not have a TARDIS -This will be remedied in Episode 1) and two Accedemic types in different fields (each with different skill sets so it should flesh out.
I have good ideas for the first 4 stories (4-5 is a two parter) and a few other ideas I think I will throw in later.
Here is what I am working on at the moment (what follows are rough notes, some of it may be a bit hard to understand as some of my shorthand may have slipped by me, but you should get the basic ideas.):
The Arc Word is Ragnarok and the Fenier race (an original werewolf like race) play into it, as they are scowering the galaxy looking for an ancient evil "god" who was imprisoned a very long time ago.
Episode 1- Catacombs of blood
Archeological dig involving ancient underground civilization. There is an Ancient Vampire and his cult who is trying to revive him. Silurians are also involved, who were ancient servants of the time lords and the caretakers of this "Prison". characters gain access to a TARDIS
Episode two - Heil Ragnorock
World War II - Fenier (werewolf race) Nazi soldiers digging for ancient artifacts in Russia, under an old church. Includes Secret bases, and Fenier are leading the nazis. (maybe introduce Andrew Fetew - a reoccurring character) Think opening scenes of Helboy.
Episode 3 - federation of Death
Spaceship, Galactic federation meeting, Ice warriors, Draconians, Alphs Centuri. Probably Peladon references. Murder - blamed on the PCs. This is basically an intergalactic murder mystery
Episode 4 and 5 - Jihad of the Cybermen (slightly more substantial notes on this one)
cybermen, but Mondasian - mission of conversion - align them with the church (make them missionaries of conversion at first then become forceful)
The PCs land in a Crowded City on a distant planet. the city is dirty and it seems as if the players may have landed in a less than good part of town. It looks to be a market place. There is a mix of people and things around the busy bazaar. In the distance you can as a much more civilized city, and what looks to be a space port with ships flying in and out constantly. There are Doom Sayers all through the streets, people touting goods, and people touting religions. There is strange looking man who's head is covered with a cloak, he has an odd sing sing voice and he appears to be offering people the chance to be converted. He seems very fervent in his beliefs and very genuinely believes that people should want to be converted to his thought.
As they walk through they notice a lot of bums and beggars through out the city, may even have some conversation with some of them. The city still looms in the background. and is their target.
Once they get to the more developed part of the city they find that it is quite a contrast to what they have just been in. This is the upper class part of the city. above the city is the roar of engines as they camper to and from the space ports. People scamper around the city, and there are more of the strange religious fanatics. Occasionally someone will stop to talk to the religious fanatics, the head is still hooded. There seems to be quite a few of them in them in the city.
a commotion leads the characters to see a poor boy trying to gain audience with a high ranking official (probably a mayor or a Governor of the city) The boy was held off by guards and the Mayor seemed to pay no mind.
the boy is an orphan is trying to report his brother missing, but no one will listen to him
(the religious fanatics are from the Church of life" which has recently came to the planet, they are getting a lot of acceptance in their teaching, of a peaceful life that conducts eliminates Race, color, creed, and promote Brotherhood amongst all. The Fanatics are called deliverers, and the leader seems to be named Father Theus. the deliverers speak of conversion to their thought.
Episode 6 - the Galactic Hotel
This is similar to the big finish Audio "The Holy Terror" except in a hotel that you can't leave (think Hotel California). This will be 1920s style people in the hotel. "There is only black beyond the hotel"
The Temporal Suicides-
There is a cultist who is convincing people to comit Temporal suicides by creating paradoxes. He finds depressed young people and convinces them to go back in time and kill themselves by comminting a paradox (killing their grandfather etc. . . It shouldn't happen but it is. The feeling gives them an intense high just before they fade out of existance. The PCs must investigate and stop this.
(need to fill in the blanks here)
The End of season
The end of the sesason will in volve the fenier breaking through and discovering that the Ancient "god" is imprisoned in stonehenge. Stonehenge will play a major role in this story. The Ancient "god" ends up being a race that had been exiled to another demention.
Other ideas.
idea 1
A story with Louis Carol (this will lead up to the stonehenge story) and will involve the fenier.
idea 2
A spaceship has killed its crew and has become insane. The PCs have to survive it or convince it that what it has done is wrong.
Any thought suggestions would be appreciated. Still need a couple more story ideas
