Abstruse Werdegänge...

Am Beispiel der Gorillaz:

  • 2D, Noodle, Russel und Murdoc wären Ops par excellence!

  • In meiner World of Progress würden sie höchstens als schlechte Comicfiguren taugen!

...oder:

Wie glaubhaft und nachvollziehbar sollten Operative Biographien sein?

Konkretes Beispiel und originärer Stein des Anstosses:

Würden die Bandmitglieder der Gorillaz als Operatives durchgehen, oder müsste an ihnen gefeilt werden, um in die (eine (eure)) World of Progress zu passen?

Ich seh irgendwie nicht das Problem...
Die würden Perfekt passen...

Murdoc: Strike Squad (Sowie der Squad Leader)
Russel: Pilot & Naviagtion (Und hat Dell im Kopf der sich um den Business Kram kümmert)
2-D: Scouting
Noodle: Kick Murder

Nebenbei machen die 4 auch noch Musik...

Und die Biographien würden so auch funktionieren? Die Kick Murder ist per Paketdienst bei der Squad abgeliefert worden, nachdem sie eine Anzeige geschaltet haben? Der Pilot & Navigation ist besessen? Der Scout hat vom Squad Leader zwei Löcher in den Kopf gebohrt bekommen? ...?

All die Fragen klingen alle so, dass ich sie mit "Ja" beantworten könnte...
Das klingt nach einer typischen, wenn auch abstrusen, Zusammenstellung von SCs...

Ich denke letzlich ist es eine Frage der Form(ulierung).
Wörtlich würde ich mir die Gorillaz in der WoP beispielsweise nicht vorstellen können, übersetzt hingegen sollten sich keinerlei Irritationen ergeben. Die Vorschläge bisher gehen auch eher in diese Richtung habe ich das Gefühl (2D mit LAD Charakterblatt etc.).

Solange wesentliche Konstanten meiner WoP nicht verletzt werden, ist eigentlich alles erlaubt.
Oder ist dieser Thread eine Frage nach diesen Konstanten?

Ich bin ein wenig überrascht. Ansonsten stellst du dich doch eher als Freund des skurril-britischen bei SLA Industries dar. Oder ist hier für dich die Grenze zum Slapstick schon zu nahe?
"Hart an der Genze" heißt ja nicht "auf keinen Fall". ;)
Wenn man es macht, müsste man halt an ein Paar Stellen herumfeilen.

Machen wir doch die Probe aufs Exempel:

Hier der erste Teil des Abschnitts "fictional band history" aus dem englischen Wikipedia Artikel zu den Gorillaz:

The story of Gorillaz begins on 15 August 1997. Stu-Pot was a not-so-bright but all-around great guy who led a somewhat unremarkable and uneventful life. A keyboard enthusiast, he worked as the star employee of Uncle Norm's Organ Emporium. Hoodlum Murdoc Niccals decided to ramraid Uncle Norm's Organ Emporium to procure synthesizer equipment in order to establish a "chart topping" musical group. However, Murdoc ended up driving his Vauxhall Astra through the building and directly into Stu-Pot, permanently damaging ("fracturing") Stu-Pot's left eye and putting him into a catatonic state. Murdoc was sentenced to "30,000 hours of community service, plus 10 hours every week of caring for the vegetabilised Stu-Pot". Not long after, Murdoc again injured Stu-Pot in a car accident in Nottingham's Tesco car park when attempting a 360°, which permanently damaged Stu-Pot's right eye, but revived him from his coma. Murdoc then recruited the newly recovered Stu-Pot as the keyboardist and vocalist for his group, re-dubbing him '2D' for the matching pair of dents in his head from the accidents.

Murdoc then found a drummer for the group in a SoHo rap record store: black expatriate Russel Hobbs. Russel was a middle-class New York native and was deeply troubled as a youth. He was expelled from an expensive private school for suffering from demonic possession. The trauma of said possession resulted in a four year coma from which Russel was roused only by an elaborately executed exorcism. After his recovery, Russel began attending Brooklyn High School, where he quickly cultivated friendships with a group of rappers, DJs, and street musicians. He has said that "hip-hop saved [his] soul."

This was a short-lived respite, however, as all of Russel's newfound friends were suddenly gunned-down one night in a drive-by shooting. Russel, the sole survivor, became the unwilling receptacle for the spirits of all of his slain compatriots, most notable of whom was the rhyme dropping blue phantom, Del. With their latent possession of his body, Russel gained incredible musical prowess in percussion, rap, and hip-hop as well as a disturbing side-effect: his eyes glowed an eerie white. With this new and violent turn of events, Russel's family shipped him off to England in hopes of helping him recover from his traumas quietly—not realizing they'd put him directly into the path of Murdoc's aspirations to superstardom, and the excesses that came along with it.

At that point, all the fledgling group needed was a guitarist. Their first choice was 2D's girlfriend at the time, Paula Cracker. However she was later to drop out of the band after Russel discovered that she had sex with Murdoc in one of the studio's toilets. As a result Russel broke Murdoc's nose in five places. So, like so many British bands before them, the trio placed an advertisement in NME. The very day the ad ran, a FedEx freight container from Japan was delivered to their doorstep and out jumped a mysterious amnesiac 10-year-old wielding a Gibson Les Paul. The tiny girl made an incomprehensible introduction in Japanese and tore into a "riff to end all riffs" which ended with an impressive karate kick to the air. She then spoke a single word in English to the stunned boys, which became her moniker: "Noodle". In the later part of 1998, the Gorillaz played their first show at the Camden Brownhouse which ended prematurely due to a riot during their song "Punk". EMI A&R man Whiffy Smiffy discharged several rounds from his shotgun to disperse the crowd enough to make his way to the stage and quickly signed them to the label. Ten months later they had recorded their self-titled debut LP.

Wie muss das abgefeilt/umgeschrieben/"übersetzt" werden, um zu funktionieren?
