Story For Huge RPG

[Icarusvogel]

Personally, I've always found that starting at the beggining of the story is a bad way to go.

Start at the end: Where do you want the character to end up? Where does the story go? From there you can work out

I can only agree with this. Writing stories for both campaigns I am making ended up like this:
1) End finished, beginning finished
2) More details added to the end
3) Total revolution of the beginning as I had a much better idea.

What does this tell you?

Start at the end!

Okay. At the end, the Hero finds the source of their never ending growth in power - they are a Al'faya, an angelic being sent by the gods to protect the world, for they cannot intervene directly.

A major point that strikes me: what is the conflict? What is this person doing with their heroic tendencies, who are they fighting?

The conflict? Against the 4 Lords of the Ik'faya, Blood, Bone, Fire and Death. The Ik'faya are sent by the evil gods.

So, a guy joins some guys to fight some gods who randomly decide to attack? Some questions that should be answered:

-Why did the gods choose this moment to attack?
-Why did the hero decide to go on this adventure?
-How do they plan to defeat people that are empowered by gods?

I think the second question is answered; the will to be a hero.

1 - The last Al'faya died.
3 - See above.
