Storylines are what keep our interest in the community, which causes us to come back.
Sure a lot of stories there are to tell, but there are plenty more that haven't been told or some that can be told in a different way, a different perspective.


Who
Who is your character, and for the basic principle of a foundation, you should be able to tell me your character, new or old in a sentence or two.


What
This can be applied to 'What is their alignment?', 'What are their goals?', 'What is it that 'you' are trying to accomplish?'

When
Usually, this applies to 'When does this take place?' 'When do you want this storyline to fit in, in this time?' etc. etc. An event, a show? etc

Where
You got all that done, now 'Where is Gamora?' ... Err where does this story take place, in the ring? In a promotion? In a segment?

Why?
Why is Gamora? ... Why is your character doing these specific actions?

How
How are they going to accomplish all of the above?


The premise is this as AJ pointed out in another thread,

Quote:
"let me know which character you plan to use, what alignment your character is, length of time the storyline should last, and a rough draft of YOUR vision of this program."



These six aspects of storytelling should be applied when addressing someone or trying to do a storyline

Or something involving their characters. You know?
Don't be selfish and expect someone to just do everything.

This is good. I like this.

Who?: AJ Warner

What?: Validation, self-redemption, and justice. Needs validation from self and others that he can still be a world champion after nearly getting murdered against Blackjack for the BBW World Championship. Self-redemption for all the wrong turns he took in his career; after a lot of time to reflect on his career, he knows he can't "re-write it" -- therefore, he's trying to overshadow the flaws/mistakes he made in his career with his last few years in the industry (which is where he is now). Justice against those who have ever slighted him, and those who are crazy with power. Also falls into the self-redemption arc because he's not as much as a narcissistic a*****e anymore.

When?: Sooner the better, AJ just turned 43 and doesn't have another decade to add to his in-ring career.

Where?: GZW. I have plans in EWA. Plus, I think I wanna use GWA as the place I work heel -- just to give me some variety and flexibility -- but that is subject to change. (I am still void of plans in GWA but kinda letting it come naturally).

Why?: A lot of mistakes were made during AJ's career. A lot of "woe is me" personality traits that stemmed from personal tragedies. Having time to reflect has shown AJ the things he would've done different... until he realized he still has time to make those changes and do things differently.

How?: AJ's not a heel who's off his rocker anymore. Wisdom has flooded the places that alcohol used to. His best years were when he was 38. Warner has more than just faith he can succeed at this point in his life.

These traits will also apply to AJ in EWA, but with some "major" setbacks... dot dot dot...
