What kind of Kefka's hack would you like to see?

I happen to think Gi Nattak's story would kick ass (Murray = "talk" ehow about people with screwy lives that enjoys doing test to see "who da daddy").

That being said, if you don't favor the based on reality theme Gi Nattak suggested, an option I wouldn't mind seeing, start with Kefka as just your run of the mill as*h**e. Do the first half of the game pre-magi knight. Just your average power hungry officer. Show his rise to general (of course this would involve murder and backstabbing, again, no magic. Hell give him some kind of skill). Include the raid on esper land(seal gate, kidnap/adopt terra). You could even do a bit of story with Terra as a child. Then, halfway through the game, take away all his skills, put him at level 1, and give him very strong magic. This would be the event where he goes completely insane.

That would be about halfway through the hack, and the start of the regular game. At this point, show all the stuff Kefka was doing in the normal game, but you can do just about anything because you'd be doing it as Kefka, through his eyes. (This could actually be the World of Ruin, even though your telling the story that happened in the World of Balance. Remember, Kefka is nuts. He sees the world as trash, people are nothing but animals that need to be put out of his misery). To him, what everybody else saw as the destroyed World of Ruin was really what he saw all along. You could then end the game when he becomes a "god" and have the ending be the destruction of the planet.

Just my suggestion, regardless, something like this will take learning, work and time. You may have to scrap weeks worth of work, maybe more than once, because you've learned more then, than you knew at the start. This won't be a one day project no matter what story you choose. Don't expect it to be.

Last tip, never assume you know anything. If you KNOW everything, then you can learn nothing.
