I require assistance of a zelda lover...?
Tuesday, May 28th, 2013 05:00 pm Heh.. so i had a idea to do a kind of zelda cross mindcrack fic.
i am such a Pause.. My coffee shop one died on me.. And my current FTB one I'm waiting for some insperation >.< (cm'on! I need FTB episodes.. Lots!)
i have been wanting to do a mc kind of one before, but I have a problem, I have never played zelda in my life.. I always wanted to but I never had those consols when I was younger :( and I don't have a computer to use a emulator.
ive began to watch Mc's play through only to find the windwaker one is 72 episodes long... >.< oh dear.. And I've looked up the basic plot on Wikipedia but I need help wih character kinda development and character matching?
anyone want to help with some character kind of stuff? :3 I was thinking of focusing on windwaker, its interesting and I know it's Mc's fave game ^_^ I was hoping if I managed to finish it for the game I might get it properly checked and send it off to him via mail... Maybe..

Date: Tuesday, May 28th, 2013 05:36 pm (UTC)I've got the plot pretty much down. I can watch a few mc play throughs in advance to know hat happens and get the main events. It's just characters, I have a list of who I belive the main characters are (thank you Wikipedia..)
It's going to be a mindcrack/ zelda altverse I suppose >.<
Mc obviously link.. But it's trying to match the other guys to charcters I don't know how they come across or who would match characters ok. I had thought Baj as the narrator doing a few quirks like he and mccan hear each other :D
Sages I assumed Bdubs and Generik as they are always a pair but I've never seen them or seen there plot line other than link has to find them to work the sword..
Any help is greatly apreciated :3

Date: Tuesday, May 28th, 2013 05:55 pm (UTC)Zelda would either have to be played by MC's love interest (Your call on that one) or his closest mindcrack friend, depending on how you want their relationship to develop.
I would make BDubs the grandma because of the personality/role matchup. Boo is always very caring and motherly, and I think he'd make a great fit. The one rub here is there'd be no room of an implication of OOG unless you got really creative. If you're Okay with that, though, that's what I'd do.
I think Kurt makes sense for one of the sages. Probably Medli, because he travels a lot, and her people do too. For Makar maybe Zisteau? Because they are a pair? Or maybe make Zisteau Valoo. That would be another way to pair them. Not to sure on this one. Will give other ideas as I have them.
Aryll would probably have to be either one of the Mindcrackers that really looks up to/idolizes MC (or someone from the fanserver maybe) or a mindcracker that really likes birds (if you really can't think of anyone better).
Ganondorf really can be anyone you think fits a villain role. I would resist the temptaion to use Zisteau though, for this particular game. If you were doing, say, Twilight Princess, which has Ganondorf's porky alter-ego Ganon in it, he'd be a good fit. But not in this particular installment in the Zelda series.
I can see Beedle being played by Pakratt. He has everything you need... For a price.
For Tingle, just pick someone silly and somewhat hyper-active.
I think I covered most of the characters that are seen the most in the series. If you need help with someone specific, feel free to ask.
As a final note, I suggest you read over this article: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5407372/1/Fanfic-101
It's got plenty of great X-over advice.
Cheers!

Now to get started ^_^ I think I have enough I just need to think of zelda and links sister.. I was thinking Pyro as that but he is older but he and mc like the same stuff and mc seems like he is more 'superior' in his Nintendo knowlage and fanboyness
Hmm.. Now for zelda.. ~_~

Cutter, I've heard the stories and such but I dot want to write him and muck it up especialy if It may go to mc.. I don't want to murder his friend in my awful characterisation :/
I have most character sorted.. Just really zelda and links sister.
Bosses I was just going to have mobs other than Nebris and his giant evil chicken or something..
