Subject: Question for Peter Wiggin (and the rest of you lot)

I'm kind of playing around with formats and ideas for my episode. Obviously I'm pretty limited at the moment as I'm second last!

Anyway, I'm wondering if it would be possible to have a major disaster of some kind at the end of episode 20. One that causes major damage to Sunnydale. Preferably a violent earthquake. And that sentance sounds all wrong even as I type but you get what I mean. It would also help me a great deal if the gang are in seperate groups at this point - say Buffy, Dawn and Willow in one place, Faith and Xander in another, Kennedy and Anya in another, Spike and Andrew in another, that kind of thing.

This is still a fairly vague idea so there's no pressure. I just wondered if it would be okay to go with a major disaster at the end of ep 20, or would it feel like too big a climax too soon to the finale?

Let me know what you think :) The working title for the episode is "Clarity"

What if there are a series of disasters. An earthquake, a hurricane, massive flooding... let's really rip apart Sunnydale!

On king mans bluff in which Proserpexa rises out of, it could the one that tips it off and in episode 21 or 22 it could erupt!!!

Not to give too much away ahead of time, but the premise of my episode is that Sunnydale is basically levelled at the end of episode 20. Buffy battling Promescutia with Dawn and Willow at her side (Dawn using the magic she's learned from Tara's book of shadows as well as her fighting skills), Kennedy and Anya are trying to get to Buffy but keep having to stop to rescue people, Spike and Andrew are trapped and a very frustrated Spike is trying to get out to help while Andrew panics about what you're supposed to do after the sky falls, and as Faith races to Buffy's side, Xander ends up comforting a woman who's been trapped in the wreakage of her home.

I think I just gave too much away ahead of time!

Anyway, it may be far too much to fit into one episode as already my quick sample scenes are pretty long, so I will more than likely change a lot around, but that's the basic premise of the episode.

[> [> Oh one more question - is Raven dead by episode 21? -- Linda_Delurked, 13:19:57 03/12/03 Wed

well okay she's a vamped slayer so she's obviously dead, but is she dead dead? Is the dusted before episode 21? Or is she still around?
