Hey Kapeefers!
I need your all’s help. 😀
And I don’t think you’ll mind helping.
I’ve decided to write the third Legend of King Daeus, with the permission of my friend @dekreel, who too is writing our Kapeefer Fanfic. 😉 We’re fans of ourselves, aren’t we? Haha!
Anyway, I need help with topic, plot and stuff. Brainstorming, the stuff you guys do best. Go! *points in all ya’ll’s general direction*
And as much as I’d love to include all of you, my brain lacketh that capacity. That’s Dekreel’s thing. 😉
–Looking for cliches, plots, evil overlords, ice cream flavors, and by all means, frogs–and special requests. Anything. Put it here, and I’ll devise something awfully laughable. (hopefully)
Oh yeah, also tell me what you did like about the sequel, what you didn’t like, what you thought could be there. I want this to be good. 😀
Thanks guys!
@shannon @emily @daeus @aratrea @kate-flournoy @ethryndal @anne-of-lothlorien @mariposa @cindy-green (and all the kapeefers. I’ll pretend I tagged everyone while not going against the rules)

@dragon-snapper Pbth, I’m only barely organized! 😉
If Emily’s in there, make sure she keeps calling me a wimp. Why? Don’t ask. It had something to do with a sword… *sideways glare at @emily* Also if I’m not in the story and she is, she can make referrals. If you want 🙂
My favorite ice cream flavor is chocolate-vanilla swirl with candy pieces.
As for plot… I don’t know… Dragons! 😀
Maybe it could be Christmas themed! If it’s done on time. It depends 🙂
You can pronounce it however you want.
Here are some random ideas. The could work together or you could choose some and reject others. (or reject them all. Duh)
- A bunch of KeePers go missing and the other KeePers have to go find and rescue them.
- To all appearances, I turn into a villain, but of course I’m not. It’s all intentional for some brilliant reason people more brilliant than me will have to figure out.
- When we win in the end, we can all do crazy dances and drink root beer floats.
- We can temptations like never having to face writers’ block again if we turn on our other KeePers.
- There can be a giant, life-threatening apocalypse thwarted by twisting cliches.
- Josiah needs to battle an evil mage (using good theme mechanics).
- Someone should slip on a banana peel. Or it could just happen randomly all the time.
- The castle servants should act excessively dramatic in everything they do.

@dragon-snapper YAY I’M SO EXCITED!!!!
Can I make a cameo?
Ah, I love listing cliches.
1. Villain has a mask
2. Mentor character dies
3. Love interest dies
4. Character dies before finishing what very important thing he/she was going to say

aldarley.wordpress.com@dekreel You’re certainly more organized than I was. 😉
@daeus Yeeess. Villain. That’s great. 😀
@epicaddie2 Mask! That way…hehehehe.

But wait, there’s more!
5. Love interest needs rescuing
6. The wizard is really old
7. The MC is brave and heroic
8. The villain is ENTIRELY evil, or is misguided and becomes good in the end
9. Evil henchman
10. The sidekick is for comic relief

@dragon-snapper ooooooh!!! I’m so excited! Yes. I definitely have to call @dekreel a wimp. Definitely. My favorite ice cream flavor is vanilla coffee swirl with chocolate chunks mixed in. Haagen Daz of course. 😀 And no root beer floats for me. Nope. And remember, I’m the perfect grammatacallion. *strikes perfect grammatacallion pose* Wait, I just told you all this and I’m not even sure if I’m in the story. Am I in the story? Please say yes. *crosses fingers and waits* *disappears into a cloud of…something(?)*

“To all appearances, I turn into a villain, but of course I’m not. It’s all intentional for some brilliant reason people more brilliant than me will have to figure out.”
“Someone should slip on a banana peel. Or it could just happen randomly all the time.”
“The castle servants should act excessively dramatic in everything they do.” Ahem, yes, I would love this one!
These are all totally brilliant King Daeus. @dragon-snapper, I found the banana peel especially funny for some inexplicable reason, probably because it is slightly cliche.
Oh, and please, have another scene where someone’s hand freezes before they knock on the door. That one was too good!
I know that a ton of people are going to want to be in this story, so I won’t ask you to put me in, that way I won’t be disappointed if you don’t have room for one more character. However, I will mention that I love to sing (which I do almost all the time, in fact, I always have a tune stuck in my head), read absolutely almost every spare moment, wish I could sprinkle sparkles on everything, and love haagen daz coffee vanilla chocolate swirl ice cream (although I abhor coffee).
@dragon-snapper Then I get to call @emily a bugger *nudge*
I prefer Dr Pepper floats, personally 😉
Anything on @daeus’s list that you aren’t using, I’m going to use 😉
And you gotta have like at least one of @epicaddie2’s cliches X)
You can pronounce it however you want.
Ice-cream flavors you ask? be prepared. Living in China expanded my horizons…not in ways that I enjoy however.
Milk flavored, Corn flavored, Sweet Red Bean flavored, Coffee flavored (and not the kind you get here. its amazing bitter coffee flavored, really wish America would catch up on some flavors), Green Pea flavored, Banana flavored…I’ll leave it there for now.
WIP - Decisions
Kapeefer til we're old and grey@dragon-snapper HYYYPEEE 😀 😀 😀
The funny thing is, I just started a Kingdom pen fanfic to take a break from my other novella. This is gonna be whole genre of its own on KP soon…
Okay, cliches, hmm, @epicaddie2 got a lot…
Also,
11. THE CHOSEN ONE to save the world
12. The ANCIENT PROPHECY that predicts the end of the world
13. THE DARK LORD who is super evil and scary and talks in a really distorted voice and wants to annihilate everything
14. The UNBREAKABLE SWORD that can cut through anything and never gets dull
15. THE EVIL GOVERNMENT (to be honest, this is a really good one. I still have not come up with a good original replacement for the EVIL GOVERNMENT. But anyway, they always are totally evil, and somehow everyone in them is a total monster, without a shred of humanity.
16. THE LOST TREASURE that once belonged to a king or a god and the hero has to find it
17. THE QUEST that the hero departs on
Okay, and ice cream flavors… RASPBERRY!!! ARE YOU KIDDING?
And a plot demo thingy…
The Kapeefer of the kingdom are disappearing at an alarming rate, and their friends, the Kapeefers who are still left. council to decide what to do.
They discover that their friends are being transmuted into DePleefers… corrupted Kapeefers under the control of an evil warlord mage. Depleefers suck life out of things, and they destroy ice cream when they touch it. The Kapeefers set out to try to get their friends back, but along the way, they get attacked by Depleefers. They can’t fight their old friends, so they surrender and are taken hostage at the warlord’s castle. Inside the castle, they meet a servant who will agree to take two of them out under cover of night, in exchange for a lifetime supply of ice cream. (the warlord has banned it.)
whoever the MC Kapeefers are escape, and they discover from a wise dinosaur at the gate of an ancient Kapeefer city that was long ago abandoned that the only way to un-corrupt their friends is to make the warlord read the Book of KaPeef, an ancient text by the first legendary Kapeefers, and that it will either make the warlord turn good or make him shrivel up.
They descend into the city, but discover that ancient terrors have been released in the city, the CLiCHES. The CLiCHES were imprisoned by the old Kapeefers, but broke out when the city was destroyed. So they have to fight those, and get the book, and then they go back to the warlord’s palace and they free their friends. BUT, they can’t have an ice cream party, they have to give all their ice cream to that servant they promised it to.
Actually, you probably weren’t looking for something that specific. That would be kind of a nightmare, writing someone else’s exact plot. :D, But, hopefully that will help you get some ideas
*Giarstanornarak tries to melt chair*
Also, Daeus has 22 turtles in his signature.@dragon-snapper Yes!
I have a question… are the Legends strictly fantasy, or can they stray into other genres, like, say, just a teensy little bit of sci-fi??
The reason I’m wondering is because my idea was to use (what in my opinion is one of the most over-used and cliched plots in existence): Time Travel!
You know, someone could appear from the future and try to destroy the world with evil robots (that can only be destroyed by dragon fire?) or something. Then, maybe a MC has to travel back in time to the first Legend of King Daeus to fix everything. But, of course, the character can’t see his/her former self, or they’ll ruin the space-time fabric of the universe. PLUS, it would give you a great opportunity to relive some great cliches from the first Legend!
Of course, this is a bit far fetched and probably would require redoing anything you’ve already figured out. Just an idea. 🙂
A Kapeefer for life!

@sam-kowal XD I know right. I’m wondering when there’s going to be a whole file for KP lit. ( @aratrea hint)
YEESSS! Raspberry ice cream? Of course. What’s wrong with me?
@dekreel I’ll let you know what I haven’t used once I figured what I’m going to use.@emily I have no idea if you’re in the story or not. I’m still figuring out the plot. XD
@epicaddie2 More? Does that include Dragon Snapper repellent? *groan*
@alia Oh…dear. Corn flavored ice cream? That’s…ah…new.☀ ☀ ☀ ENFP ☀ ☀ ☀
