Jazz Jackrabbit round robin
Well, Tales of the Tavern is beginning to smell, and Uberbob is temporarily incapacitated (Radium insists it's still alive and shows me cool stuff to prove it ), so it's time we get some interactivity back into this forum. For those unfamiliar with the concept of round robins, this is an ordinary story which anyone can add to in their posts. However, there are a few restrictrions I'd like to impose: - Please read the topic (or at least the recent parts) before posting a continuation. Make sure your post fits into continuity.
- Do not be a godmoder. If you don't like a character, don't kill him or her off in an implausible way which adds nothing to the plot.
- Similarly, avoid shutting down story threads before they even get a chance to begin.
- Generally, be supportive and think "yes, and" instead of "no". If someone says "I have an idea..." don't start your post with "No, wait, I don't."
- Try to use at least decent spelling and grammar. Mistakes are allowed, but posts wich luk lkie th15 r kind of hard to read.
- Try not to introduce "yourself" into the story. This is about the Jazz Jackrabbit characters, not your furry who has a five foot sword and can cast elemental spells without even thinking about it. A few ways to tell if you are writing about yourself:
- The character has your name.
- The character is introduced as someone wearing a cloak who watches the main characters do something and thinks mysterious thoughts about the near future before disappearing.
- The character's name is an obvious ripoff of Jazz's, such as Haze Hackrabbit, Blaze Blackrabbit, Dazz Darkrabbit, Psyde Psychrabbit, Waz Wackrabbit, Bazz Backrabbit, ¾azz ¾ackrabbit, Razz, Cazz, or anything like that. (Versions of Jazz from other time zones or dimensions are generally exempt from this.)
- That said, you can introduce new characters, but try to keep them in the role of minor characters. A shopkeeper is a perfectly logical person to exist, but avoid getting him romantically involved with any of the canon characters or anything like that.
- Don't forget, you have a lot of characters to work with, including but not limited to: Jazz, Spaz, Lori, Eva, Zoe, Devan, Dark, Lapin, Margsly, Razz, Mystery Bunny, Rebel Turtle, Queen, Henchlizard, Drunklizard, Schwarzenguard, Uterus, Bubba, Bilsy, Zoonik and more.
- Finally, don't be intimidated by that long list, and have fun when writing!
Razz a ma Tazz stared thoughtfully at the glowing test tube in his outstretched paw before shrugging and pouring it into the metal sheet in front of him. There was a sizzling noise, and the metal turned a pale blue color. Razz touched the metal and was relieved to find it at room temperature.
He began a series of tests, quickly esclating in intensity and potential damage. The blue metal withstood a sword, a hammer, a drill, a flamethrower, and various other attempts at destruction until Razz called it quits before he ended up blowing up his house. Putting down the blaster, the blue rabbit cried out in triumph.
"I've done it!" exclaimed Razz, raising the goggles off his eyes. "I've created a metal resistant to any attack!"
Razz's jubilant mood was suddenly sobered as a new thought occured to him. What malicious purposes might his metal be put to? Razz had not recently checked if his house was bugged, and anyone could be listening, waiting to create an indestructable killer robot or suit of armor for themselves. There was that turtle - something "Shell" - which his cousin's husband had fought a few times.
"Evidently," said Razz in a more subdued tone, "I'll need more protection to work on this. What's the safest place I know of?"
Several minutes later, Razz exited his house cheerfully, wearing his customary bomber jacket and flight helmet. He had carelessly flung the blue metal and all his design notes into a large back which he carried over his shoulder, and which he now flung into the back seat of his plane. Jumping into the front, Razz adjusted the controls and sealed the cockpit.
"Off to Carrotus Castle!" Razz cried, hitting the ignition.
