Spring Quest Brainstorming

1. Spring Quest Brainstorming

   #1

   Opening a new thread for the next Quest. All suggestions are welcome, and I would like to be able to put up a voting poll by April the 18th, and have the quest officially begin by April the 24th. This might seem a bit rushed, but I think the Citadel really benefits from the Quests, and seeing as I am the new Quest Coordinator I'd like to get the ball rolling.
   
   Here are some ideas bouncing around in my head:
   
   Superheroes
   Airships
   Plants and Poisons
   Insects
   Fertility festivals
   Expanding off of existing franchises such as Star Trek, Battletech, or similar sci-fi or fantasy settings.
   Manfred's Loser Fantasy Challenge for a hard one
   Marsupials
   tattoos and magic

   STAR TREK  (Any generation. The movie will be comming out!)
   
   5 in 1 without all the random and wierd rules.  Just grab 5 things and put them together.
   
   Mercenaries. A freetext that used to be loved, but recently, not so.
   
   Oceans is fun
   
   Air (floating and flying things and places).

   I like the 5 in 1 thing that Moon said, and the Ocean thing.
   
   Some vague ideas of my own
   
   Secret Soceties, *Monsters* that are in fact far more then that, *fantasy races* turned on their head.

   Oceans is good
   Secret Societies is good too, I like that one
   Mercenaries is good
   Supers just because I like that one
   Star Trek
   
   I don't know about five in one, the previous quest of that genre didnt generate much interest beyond initial YEAH AWESOME.
   
   Lets see what some of the other folks have to say on the matter

   My votes would be for Air/Airships, or Tattoos.
   
   And I want to add a category: Shadows/Shadow Magic.

   I want to pitch in my support for Cheka's secret societies. Considering how integral those are to most plots, we don't seem to have a great many on the site.

   Franchises are a good one. Secret Societies could be interesting as well.
   
   
   The last 5in1 tripped mainly on the random requirement: sometimes those fives were really too odd to work with. I'd like to keep one rule, that wasn't weird at all: "They can't be all yours." As long as that is kept, I think it is viable.

   Franchises
   Tattoos and Magic
   Secret Societies
   5in1 modified
   shadows/shadowmagic
   Oceans
   Air/Sky
   
   This looks like a pretty good list.
   
   I think we could get some interesting submissions from any of these

    "Secret Societies" & "Oceans" are my top picks.
    
    Or Secret "Oceans", or "Ocean Societies."
    
    Or "Ocean Secrets."
    
    ...

    To go momentarily off topic, IMO, it was the rules and restrictions of the last 5 in 1 rather than grabbing 5 submissions that you thought would work together (perhaps ones not yours) that was the issue for most people.
    
    We now return to the thread on track.
    
    Adding after reading the rest of the posts
    
    And then noticing manfred replied, d'oh.
    
    I would like to include a no to the loser fantasy.  It is really, really, really hard to do.  Sounds like a good idea, but really is not easy or fun to do.

    Secret Societies
    Oceanic/Sea
    5 in 1 sans heavy rules
    Tattoos and Magic
    Aerial/sky
    Genre Franchise (trek etc)

    
    
    I think this looks like a pretty sweet list right here
