Hi guys, me again. NO I'M NOT ANNOUNCING ANOTHER HIATUS...I'm actually going to try and run a plot in a month or so, and would like to fish a bit for interest/things.
Sanji is currently on his way to the Caribbean. I'm sending him past the Bahamas to Antigua and near the coast of Venezuela. Where there are real life pirates who attack tourists in this day and age.
What's to stop some NPCs from finding one? Perhaps the one that lands in the ocean. Sanji can take it back from them and then god knows what he'd do with it but...he can find one. If the timeline is such that the plot runs while he's still sailing, anyway. WHAT THINKEST THOU?
Whether or not they can activate them may be moot - possessing one, especially in the hands of some high-seas warlord (who may be superstitious or may be smart enough to know that it could help him rake in the tourist ransoms), is bad enough. Sanji wouldn't take it back to be altruistic, he'd just want it and figure out what it does later. XD
I probably should have mentioned; holding one does impress the thought that it holds some sort of power (again, not sure if that's imPort only; tempted to go with whatever would give more lol/effect), as well as giving the uncanny urge to scream the power-up phrase. But Sanji is more than welcome to end up with it, one way or another; my initial thought is diver nabs it, warlord gets a hold of it via diver in their employ or theft. Thoughts?
I do like that idea. If the locals see something fall from the sky and splash down, of course they're going to make a beeline for it. And if one of the local warlords happens to have salvage equipment, he could get to it first. But Sanji would head for the impact location as well out of curiosity and beat the crap out of them in order to steal it. Really, if for no other reason than "that's not natural, the locals shouldn't touch unnatural things."
I can see NPCs not necessarily sensing power but feeling a little tingly or the uncanny-valley effect. I'm sure that just looking at it, they'd know it wasn't just some long-lost Atlantean artifact that washed ashore. ;)
I just had a thought.
