THRONE
a proposal for a graphic novel
by Jamaul B. Phillips
After nearly three millenia, God has decided to exercise his own belief of forgiveness and
let his youngest son, Lucifer back home. He has longed to see his family re-united. He wishes
that the past can be put behind everyone and his family can finally heal. But is their an ulterior
motive that God has in store?
Michael is not opposed to the idea, he has always regretted what went down between him
and Lucifer. He just doesn’t believe it will be so easy to put the past behind him. Michael is task
with making sure all the other angels fall in line with Lucifer’s return. He enlist’s the help of
Gabriel, Raphael, Charlotte, and others that fall under the most elite angels.
Lucifer finally makes his way home. God welcomes him with open arms. but his arrival
awakens dark secrets and resentments that has laid dormant within the family. Whether
purposefully or not, the family is more at odds than ever. It is revealed that Raphael has had
deep rooted animosity towards Michael. Gabriel has always hated the fact his sole role was to
play messenger for everyone else. And Charlotte has been mysteriously removing artifacts from
God’s vault.
In this world, God is not all and be all. He himself can be defeated, and if desired from
an enemy, be killed. He is a master manipulator, no one has ever stood up to him before Lucifer.
He never expected that, so in his mind, Lucifer had to be dealt with. Bringing Lucifer back was
too show that he was still powerful and not afraid of anything, or anyone. God also enlists his
imprisoned sister Gaia to help him. Jesus will also play a role in this family dynamic.
Lucifer realizes that God is growing weaker, that the only way to over throw him is to
first convince his brother Michael that what happened between them was all on father. He
doesn’t blame him, but he does ask to consider the possibility that maybe after everything that
has happened on earth, their father was wrong. He needs to be removed.
Eventually another war will break out, this time God will have to be on the front lines to
defend what is his.
This will be a modern day style of what Heaven will look like. Jeans, suits, couture, but I
do believe some characters will be strong believers of old traditions and styles. Its Spartan meets
Empire.
Cast of Characters
Lucifer - He’s cool and as suave as they come. He puts Politicians to shame. He actually
believes in right over wrong. He’s loyal to a fault, and he never lies. He often times may omit
things, but he never lies. He loves his family, even his father, but he is not one that practices
forgiveness. Wronging him, will be the last thing you ever do.
Michael - Always doing the right thing. He’s a goody good. Always so obedient to his father,
but tries to be fair. Fighting is his last resort, if he’s on the battle field, there is no going back.
For him to turn on his father, it must have been some real act of evil on the humans part. And
let’s be honest, that’s never to much of a far stretched.
God - Possibly the worst father ever. He is always right, he could do no wrong, his word his law.
No wonder why republicans think he’s all for them. He wants his family whole, but he wants his
family whole under his ideology. He’s blind to his own ignorance. He loves all his children the
same, but anyone can clearly see that Lucifer is his favorite.
Gabriel - The middle son. He has always been stuck between Michael and Lucifer. He has
never chosen a side, his brothers have never involved him. This time it’s different, they are now
on the same side, he’s more confused than ever on what to do. God offers him a chance to step
up, how can he against two giants like the other two.
Raphael - He is actually older than Michael, but has never gotten the same recognition as him.
He just got lost in the shuffle. He resents Michael, Michael’s betrayal makes him happy, a
chance to get back in God’s good graces.
Charlotte - She was actually one of the few that joined Lucifer in the last war, but she saw it
wasn’t going their way, so she renounced her love for her brother Lucifer and joined Michael to
stop him. She is always weary of Lucifer, waiting for the moment he would strike.
Gaia - Gaia is God’s sister, has been imprisoned since the dinosaurs were wiped out. Her plan
is to use Gabriel to escape and kill her brother for what he has done to her. Her plans for the
humans is to enslave them as well as the Angels.
Jesus - Jesus and Lucifer will probably have a lot to catch up on. Lucifer sees Jesus as a threat,
the once favorite son meeting the other, bound to make for some good conflict. Jesus will of
course want to keep peace, he’s like Gabriel in many ways, but he lacks that aggressiveness to
play in this game of lies and deceit. I see him as being a casualty.
Issue Breakdown
The story is broken into four to five major acts - and therefore four to five issues. It can
be reworked into another structure, if need be. The idea is that this is a slow burn that builds in
intensity with each passing issue.
Issue One: (The Setup)
A massive gathering is held, everyone comes together, all waiting to hear the big news.
God allows Lucifer back home. He informs everyone it is time for new beginnings. Lucifer
makes rounds to size up everyone.
God and Michael disagree on how he went about doing this, God doesn’t care. We see
God and Gaia talk, it’s there we discover God’s true intentions for bringing Lucifer back.
Issue Two: (Introductions)
This issue will be one of the most important, because it will set Lucifer and Jesus on a
collision course of ideologies coming to blows. God will demand Gaia give him her powers, and
of course she refuses.
Gaia manipulates Gabriel into doing her bitting. Charlotte makes good use of all the
items she has taken out of the vault. At the end of this issue, Lucifer will agree to serve the
humans, but still refuses to actually bow down to them.
Issue Three: (Beginning of the End)
God is not pleased by Lucifer’s actions, for Lucifer this is an opportunity to see where
God’s power is. God plays it smart and let’s this one goes. Jesus re-assures his father that he did
the right thing.
Charlotte discovers Gabriel and Gaia’s secret. She decides to align herself with Gaia.
Michael and Raphael confront Lucifer. He tells them that he will “Bow down to the humans
when father brings the rest of their brother and sisters home”.
Issue Four: (The War)
After the 9/11 attack, Lucifer points out to Michael that is the human race. Are you
prepared to bow down to them once again? Michael officially joins his brother. Charlotte sets
Gaia free, Gaia goes straight for her brother.
Unaware of this third party, Lucifer and Michael both set their sights Gaia. Jesus trying
to keep the peace gets caught in the cross fire and dies, by God’s hands. God takes what power
he gave Jesus for himself.
Raphael, Gabriel, and Charlotte see their father for the evil he is, they go after him. It’s
one generation taking on another now.
Issue Five: (The End)
All the children discover that their parents cannot be killed, but imprisoned. They
manage to imprison God. Gaia escapes to the human world, keeping herself hidden. But
someone still needs to serve as God?
Using all the artifacts that she has gathered, Charlotte sends all her brothers to Hell,
except Gabriel, but she does strip him of his wings. Charlotte is now God.

OVERVIEW
Genre: Action/Drama Comparison: Game of Thrones meets (input other)
Logline: With Earth just waiting to be ruled, rival’s in Heaven wait their chance to take over.
Synopsis: We all come from somewhere, us, our parents, grandparents, and yes, even God
himself must come from somewhere. This is the story of God before he ruled Heaven. We come
to learn just who this all consuming entity is. His parents, his sister, other family members. God
rises to power, but how did he get there? What happened to his family?
STYLE: 7-8 minute webisodes, 6 episodes a season.
Demographic: Men and Women 18-40
CHARACTERS
GOD: 20s, ambitious, egotistical, self-righteous, wants to be taken seriously by his father. He
has all these ideas that he wants his father to approve off, for example, Angels. But his father
loves his dinosaurs. God’s journey is one of empowerment. His need to be taken seriously and
being dismissed slowly builds up in him resentment. We see at first that he’s just someone
wanting to do things with his ideas in mind, but over time we see the lengths he’s willing to go
through to get his way.
GAIA: 20s, she is as confident as they come. She doesn’t tolerate bull-shit. You try to beat
around the bush, she just say exactly what you mean for you. Her journey is one of
understanding. She won’t get it immediately why God grows to be the way he is, but watching
her brother suffer over times eventually leads her to join him.
OLLIS: God’s father. He is stern, can’t be bothered with silly projects of his son. Most of his
time is spent dealing with the dinosaurs. Creating new ones with the passing of time. He isn’t
cruel, that’s never his character, but he can never seem to acknowledge his children as a parent
should. His journey will of course be one of failure, he will fall to his children.
HEAVENIA: God’s mother. The most loving of mother’s. Always there to console her
children, especially God when Ollis rejects him once again. She mostly handles Heaven, Ollis
did name the place after her. She especially watches over the vault in heaven. There lies some
of Ollis’ more precious ideas, concerning dinosaurs, but yet the idea of evil also rest in there.
VALDIS: Valdis is Death. Ollis created him to handle the demise of the dinosaurs he didn’t
particular care for. Death will want more power as time progresses. He will be a great obstacle
for the family when he discovers he has the power to end even his creator’s life.
EPISODE 1:
We open on Ollis and his family observing his dinosaurs. God of course is annoyed. Everyone
else knows there’s no getting out of this. This last’s for a good 30 minutes or so. Once Ollis is
amused with his creations, everyone is than allowed to leave, but God takes the time to talk to his
father about the angels he wishes to create.
He storms off enraged, only later to be consoled by his mother. She tells him there’s a time and
place for everything, he’s too pissed to give it real thought. He and Gaia go off on a scavenger
hunt for artifacts that their mother created to give them something to do. It is the first time they
witness Valdis' power.
EPISODE 2:
God is intrigued by Valdis and what he can do. Gaia sees something in God’s eyes that concern
her. Gaia tries to talk to her mother about it, but she tells her there’s no need for concern.
Heavenia tells Ollis that Valdis has gotten sloppy with his power, revealing it to the children. He
tells her he’ll take care of it.
EPISODE 3:
God and Gaia train under Valdis. They learn what he is allowed to teach them, which isn’t much.
Ollis doesn’t take too kindly to this and embarrasses Valdis in front of everyone. It is the first
time God gets a sense of true power, from seeing what his father can do. This is different from
all the other times, this was a testament of “know your place”. But it is still within this moment,
resentment is born within Valdis.
EPISODE 4:
God goes behind his father’s back and creates a dinosaur. The dinosaur is known as a
Pterodactyl. This dinosaur can fly and stand on two legs as opposed to four. Everyone is
impressed of God’s creation, except for his father of course. Ollis can’t let it on how infuriated
he is, but he scolds God for doing this without his blessing. He strips him of his power.
EPISODE 5:
Heavenia and Ollis have at it. This is the first time that these two have ever fought. It rattles all
of Heaven. Gaia tries to intervene, but her power is of no use to match her parents. God hopes
his mom takes him down.
EPISODE 6:
God and Gaia tries to convince Valdis to stop Ollis. Use his power to kill Ollis, but there too
much uncertainty with what happens if Ollis dies. Can Heavenia hold off Ollis until help arrives.

INT. PRISON - HEAVEN - DAY
GOD, (20)s, hard headed, prone to lash out, dressed in a suit
is chained to a chair. GAIA, (20)s, playful but fierce,
stares at her brother.
GOD
Well sister, are you going to
release me or just glare at me all
day?
GAIA
You have any idea what you’ve done?
You might as well attacked father
with a full frontal assault. You
started a war today.
God smirks.
God
It is father who started a war with
us.
GAIA
You think I will take part in any
of this?
GOD
If you don’t choose a side, it will
be chosen for you.
GAIA
You forced us into a fight you can-
not possibly win. What could have
compelled you to make such a
miscalculated decision?
GOD
I did the only thing I knew that
could get his attention.
GAIA
You brought about the promise of
death.
GOD
What did you think I was going to
do when he chose those fucking
mindless beast over us?
GAIA
Damn it God, he gave us life.
GOD
And I shall remove his.
GAIA
You boy.
God lashes back, but his restraints hold him.
GOD
What did you call me?!
GAIA
Right now, that’s all any of this
is, the foolish attempts of a boy
trying to prove himself a man.
God clenches his fist.
GAIA (CONT’D)
Mother and I are trying to smooth
things over for you, to ensure your
survival.
GOD
I will not be pitied. I don’t need
help.
GAIA
If you weren’t so blind brother,
you would see this isn’t pity, but
the actions of those who love you.
GOD
These are the actions of those who
fear him.
GAIA
Why wouldn’t I fear the man with
such absolute power. He tames even
Death himself.
GOD
Release me from these chains and I
shall show you absolute.
GAIA
On whom? On me? Mother?
GOD
Father is my only target Gaia, you
are just going to have to trust me.
GAIA
I don’t know if that’s possible.
2.
GOD
Think about it, we’re young. And
the young should never have to fear
the old, the strong the weak, the
living the dead.
GAIA
Yes, you are young, but weak.
Indeed living, but if you continue
these transgressions against the
old and strong, you will surely
find yourself amongst the dead.
GOD
Allow me a fighting chance. If you
don’t want any part in this war
between father and I, then release
me and step aside.
GAIA
Mother and I need assurance you
will stay in line. She’s working
on calming father from doing
something of regret.
GOD
I’m on the front lines sister, I’m
not going anywhere. You and I both
know there is only one way this
ends, either mother a widow, or you
an only child.
Gaia takes a deep breath.
GAIA
Do you promise to leave mother and
I out of this.
GOD
You have my word.
REVEAL
God has his fingers cross.
SMASH CUT TO
BLACK
THE END

How To Play

Your first move should be heading towards the
prison, to gain more Angels or Demons. How many
you’re allowed to take is dependent upon the flip
of the card deck containing Angels and Demons.
You can pick either or end up with none, all best
on the luck of the draw. Build your army so
great, that they serve as a battlefront for you to
take on god or gaia. You’ll have to cross other
people territories and battle them as well. There
can only be one.

The Hook

Become the all
consuming,
superior being
that controls
Heaven, Earth,
and Hell!

The Premise

The purpose of the
game is to build a
big enough army
to challenge God
or Gaia. 

Defeating one of
the other Angel’s
is Pivotal, because
you can gain
their army.

Joining forces is
also a great deal
of importance,
you have twice the
army. But
remember, that’s
two leaders as
opposed to one,
and in the end,
you have to turn
on one another.

The Components

✦ Board

✦ 2 Dice

✦ Character Cards

Game story:
For over a Millenia, God has ruled over Heaven, Hell, and even
Earth. He has decided each and everyones fate, who should live
and who should die. But no more, it is time for a new ruler to
take the Throne for him or herself. God has become old and
feeble, he is no longer the God he once was, the time to strike
is now. You must battle other top ranking Angels and Devils to
reach the Throne, even once you get pass them, God still has the
advantage of Age old wisdom. Can you rise to the occasion and
become new supreme ruler?
Game play:
In Throne, you will have your choice of which Angel, Arch-Angel,
and or even Devil himself to choose from in this epic fantasy
adventure. The game play is a continuous adventure, each level
bringing you into contact with a boss of a level. Build your
power with each boss you defeat, as well as your army. You must
battle your way through each boss to eventually face the residing
King, God. Play online, you could join forces with other gamers,
but in the end you will have to turn on one another for their
could be only one on the Throne.
Elevator pitch:
Final Fantasy meets Injustice: Gods Among Us meets Warcraft.
THRONE

Game Flow:
With every passing moment, the world that is presented to you is
to introduce you to an idea what the after life could be. Not
only that, but this is the story of God, his family, parents,
sister, children.
Every new boss you meet, is one of his children, when you face
them, you get their backstory. You hear them tell the tale of
the first war in Heaven from their perspective.
As you play, their story will coincide with the Graphic Novel as
well as the Bible itself, you get both stories. You know what
they say about the truth, “There’s your version, the other
person’s version, than the actual truth itself.”
This is a fantasy game, based on the idea of powers and
mythology. New weapons such as Hand of God, the Voice of Gaia,
mystical Orb can all be at your disposal once you make it pass
certain enemies.
Build your army, beat your enemies and take their army, defeating
God will not be an easy task, you will want all the help you can
have. Join forces, but remember, in the end their can only be
one ruler, you will have to fight your coalition at some point.

Player Characters:
You have an opportunity to play up to any of the characters
provided. Once you defeat God in your game, who you defeated him
with will be the new King or Queen. You will have an opportunity
to play as God from that point on.
Lucifer - He’s cool and as suave as they come. He puts
Politicians to shame. He actually believes in right over wrong.
He’s loyal to a fault, and he never lies. He often times may
omit things, but he never lies. He loves his family, even his
father, but he is not one that practices forgiveness. Wronging
him, will be the last thing you ever do.
Michael - Always doing the right thing, he’s a goody goody.
Always so obedient to his father, but tries to be fair. Fighting
is his last resort, if he’s on the battle field, there is no
going back. For him to turn on his father, it must have been
some real act of evil on the humans part. And let’s be honest,
that’s never to much of a far stretched.
God - Possibly the worst father ever. He is always right, he
could do no wrong, his word his law. No wonder why republicans
think he’s all for them. He wants his family whole, but he wants
his family whole under his ideology. He’s blind to his own
ignorance. He loves all his children the same, but anyone can
clearly see that Lucifer is his favorite.
Gabriel - The middle son, has always been stuck between Michael
and Lucifer. He has never chosen a side, his brothers have never
involved him. This time it’s different, they are now on the same
side, he’s more confused than ever on what to do. God offers him
a chance to step up, how can he against two giants like the other
two.
Raphael - He is actually older than Michael, but has never gotten
the same recognition as him. He just got lost in the shuffle.
He resents Michael, Michael’s betrayal makes him happy, a chance
to get back in God’s good graces.
Charlotte - She was actually one of the few that joined Lucifer
in the last war, but she saw it wasn’t going their way, so she
renounced her love for her brother Lucifer and joined Michael to
stop him. She is always weary of Lucifer, waiting for the moment
he would strike.
THRONE
Jamaul Phillips
jamaul.phillips@Nyfa.edu April 10, 2016
Gaia - Gaia is God’s sister, has been imprisoned since the
dinosaurs were wiped out. Her plan is to use Gabriel to escape
and kill her brother for what he has done to her. Her plans for
the humans are to enslave them as well as the Angels.
Customization:
If you like, you can customize your very own character. Face,
hair, clothes and sex. You will be able to choose what position
you would like to be in the war, climb your way through the ranks
to the point of even being leader. As you progress throughout
the game, you can upgrade your gear, clothing, armor, tools,
weapons, and mecha.
Remember, each advancement you happen to make, comes with its own
advantages and disadvantages. More armor means more protection,
but at the same time it will slow you down.

Game World:
The world of Throne is inspired by the graphic novel Throne and
web series God. It is an adventure exploring the return of
Lucifer and the rise to God’s supreme being of all life.
Levels are created to be extremely customizable to different
ideas and cultures to get a feeling that anyone and everyone
could be a part of this world. Players can customize domains to
there liking to enrich their experience.
Since a portion of this takes place on Earth, I felt it was
important to be able to experience Summer, Winter, Spring, and
Fall. For Heaven and Hell, you will experience the lightness
that come from Heaven and the depth of despair yet imagined for
Hell.


THRONE
Jamaul Phillips
jamaul.phillips@Nyfa.edu April 10, 2016
Game Experience:
A “Round” of game play is you as the player choosing your own
path on how you wish to take the Throne. You could be good or
bad, cunning or honorable. As the old saying goes, “There’s no
such thing as a fair fight, a win is a win.”
How to Win - Survive and defeat all of your enemies that stand in
your way of your Throne.
How to Lose - Become careless and to trusting, allow yourself to
be taken advantage of and watch all you have built be taken by
your enemies. Perish before your enemies as if you were nothing
more than cannon fodder.
THRONE
Jamaul Phillips
jamaul.phillips@Nyfa.edu April 10, 2016
Game Mechanics:
Play in Single Player in an isometric view of 3D characters,
elements and terrain. The camera can be zoomed and rotated 360
degrees to allow for either a close or far view of the
battlefield. The player runs over the map in real time, knowing
how far to advance or push forward when encountering the enemy.
Single Player mode allows players to perform simple actions.
Build defenses, plan ambushes, and wield weapons. Over the
course of the game, controls remain the same, weapon and armor
upgrades utilize the same basic control mechanics. After each
battle is won, you have the option to finish off the rest of the
enemies army or have them join you.
There is also Multi-Player Online Mode. Imagine a fantasy sports
league, you could only have one character per league. In this
game, you could pick up to 100 characters. You choose what side
you’re on in this all out war for the Throne.
Fighting Game Combat Mode, where you can challenge others to one
on one duals. This is also a great way to test your skills and
discover new ways to take down your enemies.
Power Ups:
With each defeat of an enemy, you will be able to boost your own
energy level. If you happen to defeat your enemy, you may strip
them of their weapons and armor.

Transmedia Bible

  • 1. THRONE a proposal for a graphic novel by Jamaul B. Phillips After nearly three millenia, God has decided to exercise his own belief of forgiveness and let his youngest son, Lucifer back home. He has longed to see his family re-united. He wishes that the past can be put behind everyone and his family can finally heal. But is their an ulterior motive that God has in store? Michael is not opposed to the idea, he has always regretted what went down between him and Lucifer. He just doesn’t believe it will be so easy to put the past behind him. Michael is task with making sure all the other angels fall in line with Lucifer’s return. He enlist’s the help of Gabriel, Raphael, Charlotte, and others that fall under the most elite angels. Lucifer finally makes his way home. God welcomes him with open arms. but his arrival awakens dark secrets and resentments that has laid dormant within the family. Whether purposefully or not, the family is more at odds than ever. It is revealed that Raphael has had deep rooted animosity towards Michael. Gabriel has always hated the fact his sole role was to play messenger for everyone else. And Charlotte has been mysteriously removing artifacts from God’s vault. In this world, God is not all and be all. He himself can be defeated, and if desired from an enemy, be killed. He is a master manipulator, no one has ever stood up to him before Lucifer. He never expected that, so in his mind, Lucifer had to be dealt with. Bringing Lucifer back was too show that he was still powerful and not afraid of anything, or anyone. God also enlists his imprisoned sister Gaia to help him. Jesus will also play a role in this family dynamic. Lucifer realizes that God is growing weaker, that the only way to over throw him is to first convince his brother Michael that what happened between them was all on father. He doesn’t blame him, but he does ask to consider the possibility that maybe after everything that has happened on earth, their father was wrong. He needs to be removed. Eventually another war will break out, this time God will have to be on the front lines to defend what is his. This will be a modern day style of what Heaven will look like. Jeans, suits, couture, but I do believe some characters will be strong believers of old traditions and styles. Its Spartan meets Empire.
  • 2. Cast of Characters Lucifer - He’s cool and as suave as they come. He puts Politicians to shame. He actually believes in right over wrong. He’s loyal to a fault, and he never lies. He often times may omit things, but he never lies. He loves his family, even his father, but he is not one that practices forgiveness. Wronging him, will be the last thing you ever do. Michael - Always doing the right thing. He’s a goody good. Always so obedient to his father, but tries to be fair. Fighting is his last resort, if he’s on the battle field, there is no going back. For him to turn on his father, it must have been some real act of evil on the humans part. And let’s be honest, that’s never to much of a far stretched. God - Possibly the worst father ever. He is always right, he could do no wrong, his word his law. No wonder why republicans think he’s all for them. He wants his family whole, but he wants his family whole under his ideology. He’s blind to his own ignorance. He loves all his children the same, but anyone can clearly see that Lucifer is his favorite. Gabriel - The middle son. He has always been stuck between Michael and Lucifer. He has never chosen a side, his brothers have never involved him. This time it’s different, they are now on the same side, he’s more confused than ever on what to do. God offers him a chance to step up, how can he against two giants like the other two. Raphael - He is actually older than Michael, but has never gotten the same recognition as him. He just got lost in the shuffle. He resents Michael, Michael’s betrayal makes him happy, a chance to get back in God’s good graces. Charlotte - She was actually one of the few that joined Lucifer in the last war, but she saw it wasn’t going their way, so she renounced her love for her brother Lucifer and joined Michael to stop him. She is always weary of Lucifer, waiting for the moment he would strike. Gaia - Gaia is God’s sister, has been imprisoned since the dinosaurs were wiped out. Her plan is to use Gabriel to escape and kill her brother for what he has done to her. Her plans for the humans is to enslave them as well as the Angels. Jesus - Jesus and Lucifer will probably have a lot to catch up on. Lucifer sees Jesus as a threat, the once favorite son meeting the other, bound to make for some good conflict. Jesus will of course want to keep peace, he’s like Gabriel in many ways, but he lacks that aggressiveness to play in this game of lies and deceit. I see him as being a casualty.
  • 3. Issue Breakdown The story is broken into four to five major acts - and therefore four to five issues. It can be reworked into another structure, if need be. The idea is that this is a slow burn that builds in intensity with each passing issue. Issue One: (The Setup) A massive gathering is held, everyone comes together, all waiting to hear the big news. God allows Lucifer back home. He informs everyone it is time for new beginnings. Lucifer makes rounds to size up everyone. God and Michael disagree on how he went about doing this, God doesn’t care. We see God and Gaia talk, it’s there we discover God’s true intentions for bringing Lucifer back. Issue Two: (Introductions) This issue will be one of the most important, because it will set Lucifer and Jesus on a collision course of ideologies coming to blows. God will demand Gaia give him her powers, and of course she refuses. Gaia manipulates Gabriel into doing her bitting. Charlotte makes good use of all the items she has taken out of the vault. At the end of this issue, Lucifer will agree to serve the humans, but still refuses to actually bow down to them. Issue Three: (Beginning of the End) God is not pleased by Lucifer’s actions, for Lucifer this is an opportunity to see where God’s power is. God plays it smart and let’s this one goes. Jesus re-assures his father that he did the right thing. Charlotte discovers Gabriel and Gaia’s secret. She decides to align herself with Gaia. Michael and Raphael confront Lucifer. He tells them that he will “Bow down to the humans when father brings the rest of their brother and sisters home”. Issue Four: (The War) After the 9/11 attack, Lucifer points out to Michael that is the human race. Are you prepared to bow down to them once again? Michael officially joins his brother. Charlotte sets Gaia free, Gaia goes straight for her brother. Unaware of this third party, Lucifer and Michael both set their sights Gaia. Jesus trying to keep the peace gets caught in the cross fire and dies, by God’s hands. God takes what power he gave Jesus for himself. Raphael, Gabriel, and Charlotte see their father for the evil he is, they go after him. It’s one generation taking on another now.
  • 4. Issue Five: (The End) All the children discover that their parents cannot be killed, but imprisoned. They manage to imprison God. Gaia escapes to the human world, keeping herself hidden. But someone still needs to serve as God? Using all the artifacts that she has gathered, Charlotte sends all her brothers to Hell, except Gabriel, but she does strip him of his wings. Charlotte is now God.

  • 31. GOD OVERVIEW Genre: Action/Drama Comparison: Game of Thrones meets (input other) Logline: With Earth just waiting to be ruled, rival’s in Heaven wait their chance to take over. Synopsis: We all come from somewhere, us, our parents, grandparents, and yes, even God himself must come from somewhere. This is the story of God before he ruled Heaven. We come to learn just who this all consuming entity is. His parents, his sister, other family members. God rises to power, but how did he get there? What happened to his family? STYLE: 7-8 minute webisodes, 6 episodes a season. Demographic: Men and Women 18-40 CHARACTERS GOD: 20s, ambitious, egotistical, self-righteous, wants to be taken seriously by his father. He has all these ideas that he wants his father to approve off, for example, Angels. But his father loves his dinosaurs. God’s journey is one of empowerment. His need to be taken seriously and being dismissed slowly builds up in him resentment. We see at first that he’s just someone wanting to do things with his ideas in mind, but over time we see the lengths he’s willing to go through to get his way. GAIA: 20s, she is as confident as they come. She doesn’t tolerate bull-shit. You try to beat around the bush, she just say exactly what you mean for you. Her journey is one of understanding. She won’t get it immediately why God grows to be the way he is, but watching her brother suffer over times eventually leads her to join him. OLLIS: God’s father. He is stern, can’t be bothered with silly projects of his son. Most of his time is spent dealing with the dinosaurs. Creating new ones with the passing of time. He isn’t cruel, that’s never his character, but he can never seem to acknowledge his children as a parent should. His journey will of course be one of failure, he will fall to his children. HEAVENIA: God’s mother. The most loving of mother’s. Always there to console her children, especially God when Ollis rejects him once again. She mostly handles Heaven, Ollis did name the place after her. She especially watches over the vault in heaven. There lies some of Ollis’ more precious ideas, concerning dinosaurs, but yet the idea of evil also rest in there.
  • 32. VALDIS: Valdis is Death. Ollis created him to handle the demise of the dinosaurs he didn’t particular care for. Death will want more power as time progresses. He will be a great obstacle for the family when he discovers he has the power to end even his creator’s life. EPISODE 1: We open on Ollis and his family observing his dinosaurs. God of course is annoyed. Everyone else knows there’s no getting out of this. This last’s for a good 30 minutes or so. Once Ollis is amused with his creations, everyone is than allowed to leave, but God takes the time to talk to his father about the angels he wishes to create. He storms off enraged, only later to be consoled by his mother. She tells him there’s a time and place for everything, he’s too pissed to give it real thought. He and Gaia go off on a scavenger hunt for artifacts that their mother created to give them something to do. It is the first time they witness Valdis' power. EPISODE 2: God is intrigued by Valdis and what he can do. Gaia sees something in God’s eyes that concern her. Gaia tries to talk to her mother about it, but she tells her there’s no need for concern. Heavenia tells Ollis that Valdis has gotten sloppy with his power, revealing it to the children. He tells her he’ll take care of it. EPISODE 3: God and Gaia train under Valdis. They learn what he is allowed to teach them, which isn’t much. Ollis doesn’t take too kindly to this and embarrasses Valdis in front of everyone. It is the first time God gets a sense of true power, from seeing what his father can do. This is different from all the other times, this was a testament of “know your place”. But it is still within this moment, resentment is born within Valdis. EPISODE 4: God goes behind his father’s back and creates a dinosaur. The dinosaur is known as a Pterodactyl. This dinosaur can fly and stand on two legs as opposed to four. Everyone is impressed of God’s creation, except for his father of course. Ollis can’t let it on how infuriated he is, but he scolds God for doing this without his blessing. He strips him of his power. EPISODE 5: Heavenia and Ollis have at it. This is the first time that these two have ever fought. It rattles all of Heaven. Gaia tries to intervene, but her power is of no use to match her parents. God hopes his mom takes him down.
  • 33. EPISODE 6: God and Gaia tries to convince Valdis to stop Ollis. Use his power to kill Ollis, but there too much uncertainty with what happens if Ollis dies. Can Heavenia hold off Ollis until help arrives.

  • 35. INT. PRISON - HEAVEN - DAY GOD, (20)s, hard headed, prone to lash out, dressed in a suit is chained to a chair. GAIA, (20)s, playful but fierce, stares at her brother. GOD Well sister, are you going to release me or just glare at me all day? GAIA You have any idea what you’ve done? You might as well attacked father with a full frontal assault. You started a war today. God smirks. God It is father who started a war with us. GAIA You think I will take part in any of this? GOD If you don’t choose a side, it will be chosen for you. GAIA You forced us into a fight you can- not possibly win. What could have compelled you to make such a miscalculated decision? GOD I did the only thing I knew that could get his attention. GAIA You brought about the promise of death. GOD What did you think I was going to do when he chose those fucking mindless beast over us? GAIA Damn it God, he gave us life.
  • 36. GOD And I shall remove his. GAIA You boy. God lashes back, but his restraints hold him. GOD What did you call me?! GAIA Right now, that’s all any of this is, the foolish attempts of a boy trying to prove himself a man. God clenches his fist. GAIA (CONT’D) Mother and I are trying to smooth things over for you, to ensure your survival. GOD I will not be pitied. I don’t need help. GAIA If you weren’t so blind brother, you would see this isn’t pity, but the actions of those who love you. GOD These are the actions of those who fear him. GAIA Why wouldn’t I fear the man with such absolute power. He tames even Death himself. GOD Release me from these chains and I shall show you absolute. GAIA On whom? On me? Mother? GOD Father is my only target Gaia, you are just going to have to trust me. GAIA I don’t know if that’s possible. 2.
  • 37. GOD Think about it, we’re young. And the young should never have to fear the old, the strong the weak, the living the dead. GAIA Yes, you are young, but weak. Indeed living, but if you continue these transgressions against the old and strong, you will surely find yourself amongst the dead. GOD Allow me a fighting chance. If you don’t want any part in this war between father and I, then release me and step aside. GAIA Mother and I need assurance you will stay in line. She’s working on calming father from doing something of regret. GOD I’m on the front lines sister, I’m not going anywhere. You and I both know there is only one way this ends, either mother a widow, or you an only child. Gaia takes a deep breath. GAIA Do you promise to leave mother and I out of this. GOD You have my word. REVEAL God has his fingers cross. SMASH CUT TO BLACK THE END 3.
  • 38. How To Play Your first move should be heading towards the prison, to gain more Angels or Demons. How many you’re allowed to take is dependent upon the flip of the card deck containing Angels and Demons. You can pick either or end up with none, all best on the luck of the draw. Build your army so great, that they serve as a battlefront for you to take on god or gaia. You’ll have to cross other people territories and battle them as well. There can only be one. Jamaul B PHILLIPS jamaul.phillips@nyfa.edu The Hook Become the all consuming, superior being that controls Heaven, Earth, and Hell! The Premise The purpose of the game is to build a big enough army to challenge God or Gaia. 
 Defeating one of the other Angel’s is Pivotal, because you can gain their army.
 Joining forces is also a great deal of importance, you have twice the army. But remember, that’s two leaders as opposed to one, and in the end, you have to turn on one another.

  • 43. Player Characters: You have an opportunity to play up to any of the characters provided. Once you defeat God in your game, who you defeated him with will be the new King or Queen. You will have an opportunity to play as God from that point on. Lucifer - He’s cool and as suave as they come. He puts Politicians to shame. He actually believes in right over wrong. He’s loyal to a fault, and he never lies. He often times may omit things, but he never lies. He loves his family, even his father, but he is not one that practices forgiveness. Wronging him, will be the last thing you ever do. Michael - Always doing the right thing, he’s a goody goody. Always so obedient to his father, but tries to be fair. Fighting is his last resort, if he’s on the battle field, there is no going back. For him to turn on his father, it must have been some real act of evil on the humans part. And let’s be honest, that’s never to much of a far stretched. God - Possibly the worst father ever. He is always right, he could do no wrong, his word his law. No wonder why republicans think he’s all for them. He wants his family whole, but he wants his family whole under his ideology. He’s blind to his own ignorance. He loves all his children the same, but anyone can clearly see that Lucifer is his favorite. Gabriel - The middle son, has always been stuck between Michael and Lucifer. He has never chosen a side, his brothers have never involved him. This time it’s different, they are now on the same side, he’s more confused than ever on what to do. God offers him a chance to step up, how can he against two giants like the other two. Raphael - He is actually older than Michael, but has never gotten the same recognition as him. He just got lost in the shuffle. He resents Michael, Michael’s betrayal makes him happy, a chance to get back in God’s good graces. Charlotte - She was actually one of the few that joined Lucifer in the last war, but she saw it wasn’t going their way, so she renounced her love for her brother Lucifer and joined Michael to stop him. She is always weary of Lucifer, waiting for the moment he would strike. THRONE Jamaul Phillips jamaul.phillips@Nyfa.edu April 10, 2016
  • 44. Gaia - Gaia is God’s sister, has been imprisoned since the dinosaurs were wiped out. Her plan is to use Gabriel to escape and kill her brother for what he has done to her. Her plans for the humans are to enslave them as well as the Angels. Customization: If you like, you can customize your very own character. Face, hair, clothes and sex. You will be able to choose what position you would like to be in the war, climb your way through the ranks to the point of even being leader. As you progress throughout the game, you can upgrade your gear, clothing, armor, tools, weapons, and mecha. Remember, each advancement you happen to make, comes with its own advantages and disadvantages. More armor means more protection, but at the same time it will slow you down.

  • 45. Game World: The world of Throne is inspired by the graphic novel Throne and web series God. It is an adventure exploring the return of Lucifer and the rise to God’s supreme being of all life. Levels are created to be extremely customizable to different ideas and cultures to get a feeling that anyone and everyone could be a part of this world. Players can customize domains to there liking to enrich their experience. Since a portion of this takes place on Earth, I felt it was important to be able to experience Summer, Winter, Spring, and Fall. For Heaven and Hell, you will experience the lightness that come from Heaven and the depth of despair yet imagined for Hell.

  • 46. Game Experience: A “Round” of game play is you as the player choosing your own path on how you wish to take the Throne. You could be good or bad, cunning or honorable. As the old saying goes, “There’s no such thing as a fair fight, a win is a win.” How to Win - Survive and defeat all of your enemies that stand in your way of your Throne. How to Lose - Become careless and to trusting, allow yourself to be taken advantage of and watch all you have built be taken by your enemies. Perish before your enemies as if you were nothing more than cannon fodder. THRONE Jamaul Phillips jamaul.phillips@Nyfa.edu April 10, 2016
  • 47. Game Mechanics: Play in Single Player in an isometric view of 3D characters, elements and terrain. The camera can be zoomed and rotated 360 degrees to allow for either a close or far view of the battlefield. The player runs over the map in real time, knowing how far to advance or push forward when encountering the enemy. Single Player mode allows players to perform simple actions. Build defenses, plan ambushes, and wield weapons. Over the course of the game, controls remain the same, weapon and armor upgrades utilize the same basic control mechanics. After each battle is won, you have the option to finish off the rest of the enemies army or have them join you. There is also Multi-Player Online Mode. Imagine a fantasy sports league, you could only have one character per league. In this game, you could pick up to 100 characters. You choose what side you’re on in this all out war for the Throne. Fighting Game Combat Mode, where you can challenge others to one on one duals. This is also a great way to test your skills and discover new ways to take down your enemies. Power Ups: With each defeat of an enemy, you will be able to boost your own energy level. If you happen to defeat your enemy, you may strip them of their weapons and armor.
