I personally think that is a great idea. My own personal idea is set it in Los Angeles, since it's so hugely diverse, or near LA and have him wandering there... of course, I say this because I know LA. At least I didn't say Long Beach.

Anywho, I am thinking that having some supernatural shit happen would add to the hilarity as well as to the Alice in Wonderland feeling. And at one point he has to wander into a hooka shop to get some info... it can basically be the catapillar scene.

Well I can already see some arguement on where it's gonna take place. Why don't we make our own kickass city?

I can se the Hooka shop scene already, a short old man sitting thee meditating rattling of nonsense. Should be cool.

I like the humorous with a meaning concept. *here's me putting my two cents in by the way sis.*

I kinda disagree with Cairoi though. I don't think he should realize that he was wrong or something. He didn't make a mistake y running from his parents because if he'd never run he would never have had those experiences that changed him and helped him to grow.

Being forced, even willingly into a stage of growth by ones parents is never a good thing he needed to learn, experience and gow on his own making his own choices which is exactly what this little adventure would do.

I agree with Elara. The hooka Shop idea would be REALLY funny. How's about the old man in the shop has a Jamaican accent or something? He just rattles off nonsense really wuickly and then periodically stops and is like "Who da 'ell are you, mon? Ah it don' matter, here have a hit 'o dis."

Takes a long hit off the hooka and his eyes roll back in his head or something.

I like the name and the acronym reference. Fubar- F.U.B.A.R lol.

Anywho. PM me sis I'd like to learn a little more about all this and throw in my observations and considerations and such as things go along if you don't mind.

Okay so let's get some characters going.

Fubar:

What does he look like people?

I was thinking a little on the 'different' side. Super skinny, glasses, and some funky hair.
Anyone object or want to go into further detail?

So you want him to look like me sis? (O)_(O)

I was actually thinking instead of somethin unusual have him be entirely too normal you know? Like average features, average height, average build, average intelligence (cept there's a couple things he really exels at maybe,) There's really nothing all that SPECIAL about him so that makes it a little more surprising that this character, that normally you'd forget about entirely after seeing him once would get dragged into this.

Also the adventure would change him. Make him a little braver, a little stronger, a little wiser, a little more hardened. After the adventures he'll undergo he's no longer just another face in the crowd, he's his own individual person. Might even add a scar or something like a cut across one cheek, something to mentally and physically distinguish him from everyone around him.

The scar on his face at the end and a new look in his eyes, maybe a cold calculating look, or a wise caring look, or a hardened bitter expression from one that's seen too much. There's a million different angles to work this character into and by starting with someone that's just... average all over it's like having a blank canvas or a lump of clay and his adventures and everything that we put him through will slowly define and shape him into what he becomes at the end.

I really like that idea, bro. Especially the scar.

I'm thinking, brown hair and eyes 5'10 180 jeans and t-shirt kind of guy.

that sounds good. Is he muscular though? or is he just skinny? Is he a body builder type but hides with with baggy clothes or is he in only moderate shape?

I'm gonna say moderate shape. He's got some muscle but has to be using them for you to know that.

Yeah, I am liking that idea as well. I guess whether he is muscular or not depends on the one or two areas that he does excel in. I am thinking that he wouldn't be skinny or muscular... perhaps a bit well toned, but just average. For refference for Makura and Pockets (as much as I don't want to bring him up, but it works), someone built like Jayarre. Not fat, not really skinny, not muscular, yet not weak looking.

What shall he excel in though? Perhaps videogames or skateboarding... perhaps even writing or something. Oh, and what point of view are we going to be using? I was thinking that if it was first person that it might make sense if he was good at writing.

It'd be neat if he was a writer because he could be sitting at his desk writing this all down, or he could have kept a journal throughout his adventure and say ten years or so later cracked it open to read it.

EDIT: It'd also be interesting if he was particularly god at something that he had to use a lot through out his adventure. Like picking locks, and he just happens to end up in the right place at the right time.

I like. I'm thinking Writing and Skateboarding. It would be interesting to have him go through his adventures and once have to use his talents as a writer to get out of some situation and later be in another situation where his skateboarding comes in handy.

For the writing he meets a creature that alters reality by writing so he uses his talents as a writer to change the creatures story thus escaping the trap or something.
