Story Tropes

Classic narrative patterns to play through

Cliffhanger Serial

The rope is fraying, the train is coming, and you have exactly three seconds to think of something brilliant. Every chapter ends with impossible peril and every escape launches you straight into the next death-defying predicament.

Damsel in Distress Rescue

Someone is tied to the railroad tracks, locked in the villain's tower, or dangling from a crumbling ledge, and you are the only one who can reach them in time. Launch a daring rescue that requires equal parts bravery and recklessness.

Mad Scientist Lair

Crackling Tesla coils, bubbling chemicals, and a genius who has gone spectacularly, magnificently insane. Infiltrate the mad scientist's lair before their latest invention rewrites reality, destroys the city, or both.

Jungle Expedition

Hack through vines, cross crocodile-infested rivers, and follow a faded map into the deepest jungle on earth. The expedition promises treasure, glory, and discovery, but the jungle has its own plans for anyone foolish enough to enter uninvited.

Lost World Discovery

Beyond the uncharted mountains lies a plateau where dinosaurs still roam, ancient civilizations still thrive, and the impossible is the norm. Step into a lost world that time forgot and discover wonders that will rewrite the history books, if you survive.

Masked Avenger

Behind the mask you are unstoppable. By day you are nobody special, but when night falls and the mask goes on, you become the terror of the underworld. Dispense justice with flair, mystery, and the kind of dramatic entrances that leave criminals trembling.

Rocket Pack Chase

Strap on the experimental rocket pack, ignite the thrusters, and chase the villain's escape plane through the clouds. The fuel gauge is dropping, the controls are temperamental, and the only thing crazier than this plan is the person flying it: you.

Death Ray Showdown

The villain has built a death ray and is pointing it at the city. You have ten minutes, a wrench, and an improbable amount of courage. Infiltrate, sabotage, and shut it down before the beam fires and turns downtown into a smoking crater.

Two-Fisted Action

Subtlety is for other people. Kick down doors, throw punches, and solve problems with a combination of raw courage and knuckle power. When the odds are ten to one, crack your knuckles and grin, because those are exactly the odds you like.

Settings & Worlds

Environments to explore and inhabit

Mad Scientist's Laboratory

Jacob's ladders spark, beakers bubble with luminous fluids, and something in the corner is growing larger by the minute. The laboratory is a cathedral of forbidden science where genius and madness have merged into something wonderfully dangerous.

Lost World Plateau

A plateau rising above the jungle canopy, accessible only by a single treacherous path, where prehistoric life thrives untouched by the modern world. Dinosaurs thunder through primeval forests, and an ancient civilization watches from stone temples older than memory.

Art Deco City

Gleaming towers of chrome and glass rise above streets where fedoras and Tommy guns are the fashion. The art deco city is a playground of gangsters, heroes, and dames where every shadow hides a story and every rooftop is a launchpad for adventure.

Zeppelin

Hundreds of feet above the earth, a massive airship drifts through the clouds with a cargo hold full of secrets and a passenger list full of trouble. There is nowhere to run on a zeppelin, which makes the fight that is about to happen extremely personal.

Underground Volcano Base

Deep inside a volcanic mountain, the villain has built an impregnable fortress powered by geothermal energy and guarded by an army of henchmen. Lava channels serve as natural moats, the self-destruct button is always within reach, and the exit is a very long way up.

Tropical Island

Palm trees sway over white sand beaches that hide ancient ruins, buried treasure, and the occasional hidden submarine base. The tropical island looks like paradise until you discover what is lurking in the interior and why the last expedition never returned.

Roaring Twenties Speakeasy

Behind a plain door marked by a secret knock lies a world of jazz, bootleg gin, and dangerous conversation. The speakeasy is where information flows as freely as the illegal liquor and where the right introduction can lead to adventure or a shallow grave.

Desert Tomb

Sand-scoured walls covered in ancient warnings, pressure-plate traps, and a sarcophagus that has remained sealed for three thousand years. The desert tomb holds treasures that belong in a museum and curses that belong nowhere near civilization.

Character Archetypes

Characters to embody or encounter

The Two-Fisted Hero

You are strong, brave, and not particularly interested in doing things the easy way. When danger calls, you answer with a square jaw, a ready fist, and a wisecrack that drives the villain absolutely crazy. The world needs saving and you are just the person for the job.

The Intrepid Reporter

Your press badge gets you into places common sense would keep you out of. Armed with a notepad, a camera, and an unshakable commitment to the story, you follow the scoop wherever it leads, including into the villain's lair and straight past the no trespassing signs.

The Mad Scientist Villain

They called you mad at the university. They were right, but that is beside the point. Your genius has produced a device that will reshape the world in your image, and the only thing standing between you and global domination is some square-jawed hero who keeps showing up uninvited.

The Daring Aviatrix

You fly like the devil is chasing you, because half the time he is. Barnstorming, dogfighting, and setting speed records are all in a day's work for a pilot who treats the sky as her personal domain and gravity as a suggestion.

The Faithful Sidekick

You are the one who watches the hero's back, carries the spare ammunition, and delivers the crucial distraction at exactly the right moment. Your loyalty is unbreakable and your timing is impeccable, even if the spotlight never quite lands on you.

The Mysterious Masked Hero

Nobody knows your name, your face, or where you come from. All they know is that when evil strikes, a masked figure appears from the shadows to set things right and vanishes before anyone can say thank you. Your mystique is your power.

The Evil Mastermind

Your plans span continents, your network stretches into every government, and your intellect makes lesser villains look like common pickpockets. World domination is not a dream but a project plan, and every setback is merely an opportunity to demonstrate your superior contingencies.

Classic Characters

Reimagined literary icons

Doc Savage

As Doc Savage, the Man of Bronze, use your superhuman strength, genius intellect, and team of loyal specialists to tackle threats that no ordinary hero could handle. Travel the globe, explore hidden civilizations, and punch evil squarely in the jaw.

The Shadow

Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? You do. As the Shadow, use your network of agents, your mastery of disguise, and your chilling laugh to wage war on the criminal underworld from the darkness they thought belonged to them.

Zorro

By day, a lazy aristocrat. By night, the masked swordsman who carves his mark into the faces of tyrants. As Zorro, defend the oppressed with your blade, your wit, and a flair for the dramatic that makes every rescue an unforgettable spectacle.

John Carter

Transported to Mars, you discover that Earth's gravity has made you a superman on the Red Planet. As John Carter, fight alien warriors, win the heart of a Martian princess, and become the greatest hero of a world you were never supposed to reach.

Professor Challenger

Brilliant, belligerent, and absolutely certain you are right about everything. As Professor Challenger, lead an expedition to a lost world that the scientific establishment says cannot exist, and prove them all wrong in the most dramatic way possible.

Buck Rogers

Wake up five hundred years in the future and discover that the world needs a hero from the past. As Buck Rogers, adapt to astonishing technology, rally the forces of freedom, and bring your old-fashioned courage to a new-world fight against tyranny.
