New World of Alsta idea! Options

[Spirit_Master_X]

Yeah I really have no clue, but I really want to continue this series, despite us not finishing The End Times. I was thinking a story within the Magus clan. Instead of rping as the good guys, maybe its time to rp as the bad guys...only problem is...it may be difficult to round all the original rpers.
Or maybe even time-skipping ahead in The End Times...or should we just let the classics die...? =(
You guys wouldnt believe I read each and every topic/post that has ever had to do with WoA, even the Dark Sands. I realized the story was so action packed and glorious it was like living in our very own anime series...-cries- anyone else down for it?

The goal I had in mind for The End Times was to overwhelm players with a enemy that was far bigger than the actual antagonists involved...that, and make sure each and everything character within the party fucking hated each other to the point where they wanted to kill each other...but yet they had to keep in mind they were the only ones capable of saving Alsta...shit was awesome man...

The unofficial rules of time travel (according to my original resolution to that plot) was that any paradox undoes itself. IE: When Gervaros/Daniel/Damien (Whatever the hell it was) messed up our timeline to create himself, he accidentally made Oliver have the ability to drain all his power and seal him away, or however it was it ended...

So any paradox forms a loop in the timeline rather than a circle, where the paradox can always be undone retroactively (EG: You go back in time to shoot your grandfather, but the repercussions of this event lead someone to be there when you go back in time, and that person will explicitly know who you are and what you intend to do, and will have the power to stop you - but only if they want you). If you've seen the Director's Cut of Donnie Darko, this'll make sense, it's a similar idea.

We don't have to use this, but it gives everything a nice twist.
This means that when the Magus try to stop the disaster, they will endanger the life of someone with the capabilities to stop them, and they must defeat that person.

Hmmm, I just thought up a rather nice plot. Not brilliant, but if anyone's interested...
There is a fourth race on Alsta (it'll be explained) that is magical by birth alone. They work alongside the Magus, and have the ability to open portals in time (that's that explained). They all worship the same God, a God who grants wishes. A God knows as The Faceless One (things get interesting). Suddenly people of the other three races start dying out, and everyone turns to the Magus and the Magical race to find out what's going on. They discover it has something to do with the Magical race (naturally) and travel back to the birth of the race, to meet a man known as Lord Loryn - the prophet of The Faceless One.
This is where we come in, hot on the murder mystery of three races facing extinction, searching for the prophet of a wish-granting God, in a barbaric world before the civilizations arose.

I could post more, or if no one likes it we can go with one of the other billion ideas floating around.
