I'm looking for ideas on a storyline!
I play tabletop role playing games (TTRPGs) such as Dungeons and Dragons with my friends all the time, and we usually play a game called Ten Candles which has a horror theme. I have been the Game Master (GM) several times and run horror games that were really fun, each of them having complex stories and worlds for the players to explore. I want to change things up and do a comedy one, and all I have so far is the title: Hungry, Hungry Himbos.
I think it would be fun for the players to all play as himbos and write some interesting character backstories! I have no clue where to start as far as writing a story or plot for this game, so I figured I would turn to my lovely Bimboland community for ideas! It would probably be smart to have the story revolve around food in some way considering the title. There needs to be a problem for the himbos to solve, and an ultimate goal for them.
Please put any fun ideas you have here! You can put your own spin on it, add a little horror or shock value in, create your own character and backstory, throw out some world or timeline ideas, or anything that could help inspire this fun module! Does this story take place on this planet, in this decade, in this society? Get your creative juices flowing. There is no time limit to this, and I don't consider this a contest of any kind; just a fun creative exercise for anyone who wants to participate!
For ttRPG nerds:
If you're interested in the game mechanics at all, we play using a combination of the Ten Candles system and the Tales from the Loop system. The attributes/skills the players have are the ones on this character sheet: https://i.imgur.com/St96PIm.pnghttp:// (ignore everything except the Attributes/Skills box) and they put points into these skills; 10 points to distribute between base attributes (body, tech, heart, mind) and 10 points to distribute between all 12 skills. To perform an action, players roll a number of d6 equal to the points in their base attribute + their skill points. If they roll a 6 on any of the die, they have succeeded. For example, if my himbo Lewis wanted to push something heavy, he would roll "force". If he has 4 "Body" points and 2 "force" points, he would roll 6 d6s.
The Ten Candles system comes into play by using "Vice" and "Virtue" character tools. They can burn one of these to get a reroll. Quite literally they burn a note card using a candle. For example, if my himbo Lewis failed his roll to push something heavy and wanted to reroll, he could burn his Virtue, which is "Persistent". In order to do so, the player has to tie their Vice or Virtue into the story and how they're using it to gain a reroll. After they burn a trait, they cannot do it again.
