User:Jacky 50A/Series Ideas

Overview
This idea of a series revolves around a conflict between Warwick (League of Legends) and the Skaven of Clan Moulder (Warhammer Fantasy), who has captured the mechanical werewolf in an effort to replicate the experiment that created him so they may bolster the power of their war beasts and aid in the race's plan to conquer the world.

Themes

 * Free will.
 * Every being has a free will of their own, and it's up to them to take the choices that will shape their lives.
 * Every choice has to be taken with responsibility, because every action brings a number of consequences, which could bring dire implications.
 * Interpersonal relationship.
 * Trust can be built, but one can never immediately trust another despite having similar intentions.
 * Selfishness only leads to ruin.
 * When pushed to desperation, one may take even the most dubious of choices to survive, even leading to the betrayal of others.
 * No one can live alone in this world.
 * Despite how rampant untrustworthiness is, every person needs allies to accomplish their goals.
 * Emotions.
 * Hate and rage can blind a person's reasonability, so it's crucial for them to maintain their emotions.

Story Pointers

 * What does the Skaven want with Zaun?
 * Zaun has been eyed by the Skaven for some time due to its strategic location in Valoran. Should the Skaven attain control over Zaun, they would finally possess a major foothold in Valoran, where until now, they've no presence whatsoever.
 * Should the Skaven take control over Zaun, they would also have access to Piltover, where more refined technologies are available for the Skaven to plunder and make use of.
 * The Four Great Clans of Skavenkind, too, have their own interests within the city of Zaun, which also represent most of the Skaven's own intents in dominating Zaun.
 * Clan Skryre intends to steal the revolutionary technologies of Zaun to increase their political and military might, also wanting to maintain monopoly over Skaven technology in general, so their rival clans are discouraged from attacking them by encouraging them to buy technology from them.
 * Clan Pestilens wishes to gain access to the city's many chemicals to concoct new diseases. They also seek the city's wind goddess, Janna, who they want to sacrifice as an appeasement for the Great Horned One.
 * Clan Moulder also desires the city's chemicals -- especially Shimmer -- to enhance the performance of their war beasts, as well as other purposes.
 * In the story, Clan Moulder seeks to capture Warwick, Dr. Mundo, Zac, and Twitch to make use of their chemical natures to enhance their creatures or even create new monsters.
 * Clan Moulder wants to enslave Warwick into their service while also replicating the process that created him, which would grant them the ability to create stronger rat ogres.
 * Clan Moulder wants to extract the Shimmer within Dr. Mundo, so they may be utilized as combat enhancer drugs for their monsters.
 * Only Singed possesses the knowledge to synthesize Shimmer, but the alchemist has no intentions whatsoever to work with the Skaven, as he has violently fended off every attempt they did to recruit him. As the Skaven does not have much foothold upon Valoran and Singed is very good at hiding his presence (even from Clan Eshin assassins), they have decided to study the creation of Shimmer themselves, starting by the abduction of Dr. Mundo.
 * Much like Warwick, Clan Moulder also wants to replicate the process that created Zac, so they could create 'Zacs' of their own, which would become near-invincible soldiers for the Skaven.
 * As Twitch is a plague rat who gained sentience due to exposure to Zaun's many chemicals, Clan Moulder intends to discover the exact chemicals that granted Twitch such an intellect and biological development. They accomplish this by initially recruiting Twitch into their cause, 'one rat to another', utilizing his skills to capture their other targets, before betraying him, so they may perform experiments upon him. Should Moulder succeed in understanding how Twitch came to be, they would be able to easily grow more Skaven from mere rats for their clan, who are far more intelligent and competent than regular Skaven.
 * Clan Eshin generally has nothing to want of Zaun, aside from its dark and damp space of Oshra Va'Zaun: the deepest level of Zaun, where they have already established an enclave to handle the businesses of the Under-Empire concerning Zaun and Valoran as a whole.
 * How strong is the Skaven's foothold on Zaun?
 * Clan Eshin, being the first Skaven clan to have ever set foot on Valoran, possesses an enclave of 350 Skaven, inhabiting Oshra Va'Zaun. The clan's presence in Zaun is relatively recent, as they arrived there on a ship belonging to Clan Skurvy two months prior to the story's events. The enclave, however, is not strictly filled with members of Clan Eshin, as Clan Skryre's Warlock-Engineers and Clan Moulder's Packmasters are also present to accomplish their own clans' goals, which in turn advances the race's plan to dominate the human undercity.
 * How would the Skaven transport Warwick, Dr. Mundo, Zac, and Twitch back to the Old World?
 * Much like how they arrived at Zaun, the Skaven would transport them back to the Old World by utilizing the ships of Clan Skurvy, sneaking away from the ports of Zaun with the shadow magics of Eshin Sorcerers.
