Line 44:
At some point he'll say something to the extent of 'This campaign's a bit stroppy!'
 
== After finishing [[Star Wars]], they'll start a new campaign- [[The Order of the Stick (Webcomic)|The Order of the Stick]]. ==
Pete is Belkar, Annie is Elan, Ben is Roy, Jim is probably Haley, and Sally is Varsuuvius. They'll get a new player for Durkon, obviously.
* Really? Seems that Sally and Annie should be switched. Sally is more crazy, but story-oriented, thus explaining Elan's trope-happy-yet-incredibly naive personality, and well...[[This Is Sparta|Soul. Splice.]]
Line 127:
 
== Sally will switch to C-3PO when she realizes how ridiculous Jar-Jar is ==
Fandom wishes aside, there's only a handful of scenes with Jar-Jar in them for the rest of the trilogy, so she needs a new character (or to be [[Put Onon a Bus]], but nobody wants that). Who better than the prequels' ''other'' comic-relief [[The Scrappy|scrappy]] in desperate need of image rehabilitation? As far as an in-universe justification, it's been two years since the first campaign, more than enough time for Jar-Jar and his accent to become an [[Old Shame]].
* Alternatively, she will take over Mace Windu, Yoda, or some other Jedi. Someone that can actually fight.
* Somewhat confirmed. Sally has thrown a tantrum and rufuses to continue playing. Whether she will reenter as another character remains to be seen.
Line 311:
 
== The Game will also include... ==
The game will continue on past the movies to include the [[Clone Wars]] series. [[Star Wars: theThe Clone Wars|Both of Them.]] I mean think of it; Ahsoka seems like the kind of person Sally would roll up.
* Addendum: They will, but it will be skipped over with another [[Time Skip]].
 
Line 347:
== Mace Windu was going to be boring... Until Sally makes him a [[Badass]]. ==
 
Sally has already expressed irritation that she's stuck with [[Red Shirt]] types while everyone gets to be Cheddar Monks with [[Laser Blade|Laser Blades]]. In Mace Windu she finally has a character who can keep up with the "main" players. So when the GM announces that Windu's supposed to be a Yoda-style wimp, Sally's going to [[Take a Third Option]] [[Took a Level In Badass|In Badass]] and turn her character into the [[Samuel L. Jackson]]-style [[Person of Mass Destruction]] we all know and love. (For that matter, ''Yoda's''' resulting level in Badass / Windmill-On-A-Pogo-Stick fight might be a direct result of Sally upping the ante on what Cheddar Masters can do.)
* More or less confirmed. Sally played Mace during the fight scene, and now she's playing Yoda.
 
Line 475:
Vader/Anakin loses his memory after Mustafar. The players - or maybe just whoever plays Luke - figures it out before Cloud City, and that classic scene is actually Luke revealing to ''Vader'' that Vader is Luke's father, and was once a Jedi etc.
 
== Sallies campaign will be ''[[Knights of the Old Republic (Videovideo Gamegame)|Knights of the Old Republic]]'' ==
 
Instead of doing a direct sequel to the campaign that The GM was running she would make a distant prequel where the Jedi are still alive and they are fighting a war against an army of the Sith. The plot of ''[[Knights of the Old Republic (Videovideo Gamegame)|Knights of the Old Republic]]'' suits itself really well for a young DM's campaign since it is basically a [[McGuffin]] hunt but has enough [[Crazy Awesome]] moments and characters to suit her character. The campaign would just start with Jim as Revan and Ben as Carth. As the campaign went along more players would come in to play the various party members with of course Pete being playing HK-47. After they are done with the plot of ''[[Knights of the Old Republic (Videovideo Gamegame)|Knights of the Old Republic]]'' they would probably stop for a little while but a year or two later Sally will make a campaign for KoTOR 2 explaining that campaign as being much [[Darker and Edgier]] as her getting a little older.
 
== Yoda and Palpatine will [[Grand Theft Me|swap bodies.]] ==
Line 529:
* Seeing as 349's and 319's strips have almost comfirmed that the campaign that took place between Episodes I and II is indeed Princess Bride, 350 will show a bit of what happened in that campaign.
** Jossed, but it was a good shot.
*** ''[[The Princess Bride (Filmfilm)|The Princess Bride]]'' could still show up in a later one, though. Of course, it would probably be different from the one in the Darths and Droids universe, as it would include Sally and Annie like the rest of the alternate universes do.
**** Then again, maybe not- the Jaws one didn't have either of those two, just Ben, Jim, and Pete.
***** And the Muppets one had Sally as the GM.
Line 564:
 
== D&D is not the top level. ==
There are two (at least) higher-level webcomics based on ''[[The Princess Bride (Filmfilm)|The Princess Bride]]'' and ''[[Twilight (Literaturenovel)|Twilight]]''.
 
== [http://www.darthsanddroids.net/magiciansandmunchkins/episodes/0050.html This universe] is what would happen if Pete were GMing. ==
Line 574:
== The final "in the universe the players inhabit, _____ does not exist" strips will be based on religions and ancient myth. ==
Thank about it, what are the oldest sources of tropes?
* The fourth-to-last meta-fic will take place in a world where the [[The Bible (Literature)|New Testament]] never existed.
* The third-to-last meta-fic will take place in a world where the [[Old Testament]] never took place.
* The second-to-last metafic will take place in a world where [[Classical Mythology]] never took place.
Line 586:
*** Although it was [[Jossed]] pretty specifically. Makes you wonder if the creators were on this very wiki...
**** We have confirmed he is in fact [[One of Us]]. So the specific jossing was probably intentional.
**** It's basically confirmed that the campaign they were playing was ''[[The Princess Bride (Filmfilm)|The Princess Bride]]'', see below.
 
== The fantasy campaign was ''[[The Princess Bride (Filmfilm)|The Princess Bride]]''... from the perspective of Vizzini, Fezzik and Ignio Montoya. ==
 
In 260 we're told Jim was a barbarian (Fezzik), they were on "an important mission from the King" (with the twists DMM puts to the source material, they were probably working for Prince Humperdink), and they were stalked by the captain of the "ninja pirates" (Dread Pirate Roberts). In Episode 316, we learn there was a Miracle Man who Jim got to resurrect a character Pete thought was "unimportant" (Westley; he wasn't a PC, so how important could he have been?)
Line 598:
**** And...confirmed. [http://www.darthsanddroids.net/episodes/0410.html Page 410] spells it out.
 
== The game that Pete's pissed off about was a game version of ''[[The Princess Bride (Filmfilm)|The Princess Bride]]'' ==
* [http://darthsanddroids.net/episodes/0349.html Evidence]. Pete's demise was, shall we say, ''inconceivable''.
** I'd say this is more or less confirmed.
Line 623:
Strip [http://www.darthsanddroids.net/episodes/0552.html 552] drops the heaviest hints yet. The campaign involved vampires, werewolves and Frankenstein's monster; Pete's character killed them all. Near the end it was randomly revealed that Pete was the Archangel Gabriel.
* It's starting to look like a mixture of a couple different things, including freakin' Twilight.
** [http://www.darthsanddroids.net/episodes/0572.html Her vampires] [[Twilight (Literaturenovel)|sparkle]].
** Confirmed. [[I Knew It!|Nice to get one right for a change]]. :)
 
== Jim was banned from laser swords because... ==
...he cut himself shaving (as in, cut his own head off). We're pretty sure the third offscreen campaign was ''[[Star Wars: Dark Forces Saga (Video Game)|Dark Forces]]'' if the name "Kyle Katarn" is anything to go by, and I noticed [http://www.darthsanddroids.net/episodes/0524.html this previous nod to Dark Forces] when skimming the trope page recently. It sounds like something Jim would try that would then go Horribly Wrong.
** Spoke too soon - a strip or two later, Jim describes Katarn's death as a [[Heroic Sacrifice]]. It might still have to do with why Jim can't use laser swords anymore, but it looks like a shaving accident is out.
