Hero 7 Plot Point

[Silverbolt]

Okay...I say we bring in a really manipulative person, like Kreia from SW KotOR II or Moebius from the LOK series.

[Corsair5]

I hated Kreia. She was way too Neutral. And then she just suddenly goes..oh, wait. Spoilers.
 

[Paladin0707077]

(lol) Love to see that, except we have enough problems with the QFG copyright people. We don't want any MORE lawayers biting at our ankles.

[Silverbolt]

Well, I didn't say "use Kreia". She can be just a starting point, leading to something better.

[Corsair5]

I say we make Hero7: Quest For the Force! And you get control of Revan, who was alternately a hero and the most powerful of the sith! And you strive to conquer the galaxy!

and then the paladin will arrive and have a duel, him with his flaming sword against revan and his lightsaber  

[Paladin0707077]

Flaming sword would win. Every time. Lightsaber's powered by batteries, this thing is powered by the Awesome Power Of Honor And Goodness Within Paladins. No contest.  

[Ignus_Draconus]

yeah, but the jedi doesn't have the temptation to use any really bad pick-up lines. like: "wanna see my sword turn blue?"

[Corsair5]

Okay, that "See my sword turn blue" could be interpreted as a really, really lewd comment.

Revan would win. Force Choke.  

[Jafar]

Okay, that "See my sword turn blue" could be interpreted as a really, really lewd comment.

Isn't that the point?
Anyways, Jedi and Paladins are like apples and microscopes. You just can't compare the two.
Well, thats what I think anyway.

[Paladin0707077]

Well, we know that. But that's the fun of it.

Actually, the Paladin could block Force Choke with either Honor Shield or Magic Ward. Or both.

[Jafar]

The Force ain't magic, dude.

[Corsair5]

Besides, all the Paladin has is a sword covered in flame. Jedi cuts the sword off with his lightsaber and then finishes the Pally.

Wasn't this kinda sorta already done in QFG?  In 2 you were enchanted by Ad Advis and retrieved the statue of Iblis for him, in 4 you were forced by Katrina to gather all the relics for the summoning.....only to break free and stop them at the last moment.

All the QFGs were awesome (my favorite was 2), but my only critique would be that from 2-5 the major plotlines were all pretty much the same: the evil bad guy is going to summon some terror to destroy the world and you have to stop him/her, whether it's Iblis, a Demon Lord with one messed up name, Avoozl, or the Dragon of Doom.  

Let's try to brainstorm some other cool plots.  From Sierra we have:

1. Evil witch puts curse on area which must be lifted by Hero.

2. Bad guy/girl wants to summon freakish monstrosity to rule world, possibly tricking Hero into helping, then has to be stopped by Hero.

What else can we add to this?

For the Norse setting we could consider having the Hero stop Ragnarok from destroying the world, but that might be too advanced for a low-to-mid-level hero on his second quest.

We were actually thinking more devious. For instance, we all knew Ad Avis was evil. We need something so sneaky that the gamer will go: "Holy sh...cow!!! What have I done?" when the plot is revealed. We need betrayal like none before...or something.
