Beyond the EndAn oh nos it's the apocalypse meme.
Congratulations.
...what, why? Because the world's ended, is in the process of ending, or will start to end shortly. I'm talkin' fireballs, earthquakes, the dead rising, various foreboding entities from myth and legend showing up as foretold in the last pretty epic battle, floods and famine and disease, everything. Despite this, you? You are a survivor. You have overcome all the odds and are making the best of what's going down.
Well.
Maybe. I mean, I don't know. You might be a cynic who's not really making the best outta anything and you're still existing. I shouldn't assume.
If you need it, pick up your
dice and roll for your disaster.
1. Floods. Rather self-explanatory. Pretty passe, but you gotta respect the classics.
2. Global Armageddon through something, probably war, gone horribly wrong. Like a nuclear apocalypse. You know, one second everything's awesome, the next you know you're suddenly in Fallout.
3. Some sort of slower decay of the world through possibly natural forces. It's like the world turned ever so slightly on its axis and everything started to decay. Crops died. The climate shifted. The ice caps started to melt and the world slowly started to become an oven...or maybe the opposite and everything began to slowly freeze.
4. The world exploded. (Or is exploding or is going to explode.) You're channeling your inner Kal-El, basically. On the bright side this could lead to space adventures and those are fun.
5. Zombies. Again, self-explanatory, but you gotta respect the classics.
6. Some sort of war, again, but this one involves what passes for canonical spiritual influences doing some epic last stand in a battle for all of humanity's souls. You know that one myth you thought was just that - a myth - involving...I don't know, King Arthur returning in the hour of Britain's greatest need? Yup. Got a canonical bad guy who was just believed to be a myth told to scare small children but was actually sealed somewhere or another? Yup.
7. Aliens invaded. Kind of similar in theme to some of these other things but I'm trying to cover all the basic angles. Space, spiritual, explosions, zombies....
And yeah, if you want to do something else go do something else! The world's ending, nobody's gonna care how it ends.
