Tiberium secrets Series Arc feature

Plans for ending the mod are given in this update

By: Eric Chou (Jist) 7/9/16

For the sake of clarity and standard organizational practice, we’ll be referring to the stories in terms to TV seasons and Episodes.

This is to lay out the Macro of what the story is about,and the key characters, actions, and reveals for each story, season, and the overall series.

We're based off 7 episodes a season, with 8 seasons, as of now, we can write S1-S4, S7, S8

8 episodes a season will allow us to develop each new character, and exploring interactions before adding new core characters, we may also get to S5 once Colony development begins, we need to get ahead of development, but not too far.

Episode 0’s serve as world setting, as needed, to help indicate divergence from original official canon. .

ARC WIP- undergoing changes

Events take place during, and after our Canon:

Note: all following “faction seasons” will have three conflicts:

1. Faction’s conflict with another faction(s)
2. Scientist (or scientists) have their own conflicts, either ideologically or in some other respect.
3. Faction is having its own internal issues.

Season 2: Colony Intro

Colony encountered in a Black Zone

1. TBD-TBD (Richard, Loustomo, Reynolds+Bratson, react to E8, or Not all characters aware of E8? Only specific characters? Explore interaction of characters and trust?
2. TBD-TBD
3. TBD-TBD

Season 3: D51 Rises from meh Ashes! Moon base.

1. TBD-TBD ??(Bratson has been fighting, seen some shit O.O And this covers the Civil War. He and Reynolds are on opposite sides: Reynolds on Bratson’s Relatives side, Bratson opposing)??
2. TBD-TBD
3. TBD-TBD

Season 4: Colony is growing vastly out of proportion (for some reason.), ASI & D51 are friends now and build a portal to another dimension (somehow).

Jason: Idea: Newman’s son becomes the new Hivemind for the Colony, and he works with Newman to find a cure for the Colony, but Newman’s son is merged in the process, losing his identity/sense of self, and turns on his father. Newman must kill his son, sending the Colony into disarray (Like how the Flood from Halo would act without a Gravemind to coordinate it). We can have the process of Newman Jr.s loss of self having progressed faster the closer the Scrin got, and they arrive at the moment Newman Jr. loses his sense of self. So the Invasion is kicked off by the Colony going berserk. I don’t know what happens with Newman after this.

Additionally, Lostumo has been in contact with him during all of this, so perhaps she manages to swoop in with a team of Soldiers and they collect Newman as the Colony units are confused having been so abruptly severed from their Hivemind.

Season 5: : Full Scrin Invasion

Cnc.wikia.com

1. TBD- TBD (Charged with defending the Scrin Tower and Research Station (STaRS) designation Mobius, the RAID forces are the last organized military unit of the GDI. Unaware of D51, they must fight their way out of the barricade that Nod has constructed around the area. Somewhere they, or D51 find out about Scrin origins perhaps a from Colony?
   -Colony is their Feral Cousins, so to speak? Or Ancestors.

-Perhaps Colony were Scrin that crossed Dimensions, and since the Scrin are basically made of the stuff, and the tech was made from Tiberium (of course) they got corrupted in the process, resulting in the Colony. The reason the Colony has come back is that they were forced out of the new dimension as there was no Tiberium in it, and it created a paradox. Or perhaps there’s some kind of Anti-Tiberium (kinda like Anti-Matter) instead of Tiberium itself. The Anti-Tiberium is much easier to control, and is not infectious, but reacts violently with any Tiberium based materials.

-Revised: Colony origins:

Scrin Dimension Hopped, bringing a bacteria from Dimension H (Current one) to Dimension F (New One). This bacteria assimilated Anti-Tiberium, thus causing them to grow while consuming Tiberium and Tiberium-based life forms (like Scrin, Mutants, etc…) back in Dimension H, leading to their Awakening as a Hive Mind.

Colony sees itself as an awakening of Nature. Starts making targets attacks on Factions.

Unit Idea: Ameoba. Divides to replicate into more of them. How: Unknown.

Season 6: Final Season: Evacuation of Earth to a universe without Tiberium by D51 & ASI
