TIME TRAVEL PLOTTING POST PART 2

AS MOST OF YOU PROBABLY RECALL, a little while back we put up a post for discussing a plot where a group of characters would show up from 10 years into a grimdark alternate future to try to change the past. WE WOULD STILL LIKE TO DO THIS, but a few things need to be hammered into place before we can go ahead with it.

What we DO know is that ten years into the future, Earth will be approximately half under the tyrannical rule of Sovereign, and half under the equally tyrannical rule of Princess Unikitty. Each of them is trying to wrest control of the other half from their rival, but they must also contest with various resistance groups, as well as the planet being ongoingly under siege by various alien forces – Alternians, Skrulls, etc. - which are only just being fought off every time they stop clawing at one another's throats for long enough to try to invade, leaving Earth increasingly dystopian and war-weary.

A group of rebels will use a time machine – I think there was talk of it having been constructed by Black Ghost – to travel back to CH's present day in order to prevent this future from coming to pass.

After this is accomplished, all or some of the time travellers will go back into the future with some present-day characters in tow in order to, probably, do something with the time machine to make sure that the timeline will be properly reset.

THINGS WE NEED TO ESTABLISH:

• Which characters are coming back into the present? Doesn't have to just be resistance fighters – they can be followed through or infiltrated by villains! In fact it would be pretty great if they were followed through by a few bad guys, because that would better justify needing present-day characters to come back to the future with them to help seize the time machine back.

• What event are they attempting to stop?

• Who came up with this plan?

SO reply to this post with what your character/s are doing in all this (their status in the future timeline, whether they'll be involved in goings-on in the present), and if you want to, make suggestions for the above bullet points, and GET DISCUSSIN'

(If anyone has any characters they would like to app to bring in during this plot and leave in the past after it's over, also, feel free to throw ideas around for that!)

So all my guys who will actually be involved in any way:

MIKO

Future Miko is a badass resistance fighter with a bunch of scars and a robot arm and an eyepatch and somehow even less tact than she had when she was a teenager, and she will be going to the present.

Present Miko will probably be going to the future.

PEONY

Future Peony, as mentioned before, is one of the main contenders for WORLD DOMINATION. She is pretty much an awful tyrant with a tendency to switch very abruptly from condescendingly friendly and confident to COMPLETELY ENRAGED AND MURDEROUS when things don't go her way. She will NOT be going to the present.

VELOCI

Future Veloci is basically just some angry bitter dude hiding out somewhere after Sovereign turned on him. He MIGHT go to the present to try to keep that from happening, I'm not sure yet.

GAJEEL

Future Gajeel will not be doing anything because he is extremely dead. THAT SAID, though, he worked for Sovereign for a few years, turned on him, tried to protect someone else, and was murdered immediately, which provides opportunities for, y'know, people who he may have tried to kill while under Sov's influence, as well as who he tried to save. That stuff.

Also, no future version here, but ARTEMIS

Present Artemis miiight be going to the future?? I'm not 100% sure yet but it's at least a possibility.
