Had this crazy-ass idea that probably doesn't make as much sense as I'd like it to.
Basically, imagine an all-powerful, inter-dimensional entity deciding (out of boredom) to turn a comic-con into their little social experiment : a Battle Royale where the winner will be able to take their place and govern the multiverse in their place... because spending eternity doing paperwork sounds pretty boring to be honest.
Hilarity ensues as all your favorite fictional characters - played by nerds in costumes quite literally (having gained the powers of w/e chara they were cosplaying as) - find the funniest ways to take out the competition, team up and backstab one another to ascend to godhood and rule over all their peers. Some of them aren't the nicest folks around.
However, I realized the following problems :
1)This'd work best in a Group setting and let me tell you, I'm more of a 1x1 person.
2)There's no real way to prevent the power ceiling from turning into an absolute joke.
3)The story would get repetitive real quick.
4)I'd have to insert some heavy SOL elements for the characters pre-transformation and honestly, there are only so many things you can do in realistic settings before you run out of inspiration.
Oh, and MHA Canons would be litty, but I've had zero luck thus far despite being both interested in and offering to play as popular characters. Got ghosted three times for the same pairing off-site so it may be just shit luck taking me for a whirl.
