103 - The What-Ifs Game
Background
The previous activity involved collecting ideas for three potential novels. These were built from the ideas collected in 101 - The Love List.What If...
For Novel 3
- ...a cult believed it could bring magic into the real world?
- ...an "evil" cult leader believed he could bring magic into the real world?
- ...a magic cult believed it was working for the greater good but was harming the world?
- ...two magic cults want what's best for the world and see the other as evil?
- ...a cult leader wanted to remove magic from the world and was seen as evil?
- ...in a world where magic is only for the higher classes, a cult leader promises magic to the masses?
- ...in a world where only certain people can practice magic, an entrepreneur uses a cult to sell it to the masses?
- ...in a world of cults, a person is seen as a villain tries to free people from it using magic?
Novel 3
- ...in a world where everyone is the member of a cult, one person tries to rise above the rest by harnassing the power of magic?
- ...in a world where magic is seen as evil, a cult leader tries to use magic for good?
- ...a cult follower started developing magic powers?
- ...a cult follower developed magic powers which were stronger than those of the leader?
- ...everyone believed a cult leader had magic powers, but they didn't?
I don't know if I love any of these "what ifs". I'm going to try putting together a novel box for each of the books I'm currently working on, and then see what the "what ifs" game looks like for them.
What If... (my WIPs)
Whispered Rebellion
For Whispered Rebellion (P'Ache)
- ...someone pushed back on the controlling behaviour of a collonial power and discovered more about themselves?
For Untameable (The Wilds)
- ...a person from an organised religion is forced to live with vikings?
- ...a person from an organised religion discovers magic with vikings?
- ...a religion which believes magic is evil collides with a group of vikings who believe it's good?
