I have several ideas I am throwing around for some fantasy stories based in Tamriel (Daggerfall, Morrowind, etc)...which do you think you'd like to read...
Read these synapsosies and then vote.
Thanks
VAMPIRE STORY
The story follows a group of three Iliac Vampires as they and the rest of their clan try to become a stable class within society.
Werewolf story
A fake Documentary on Werewolves and Permwere (stuck in half man/half beat mode). Written by a distinguished member of the Mages Guild in Daggerfall City
History of a Dungeon
The history of a dungeon and its vistors from construction to eventual decay.
Letters to Theograd
Series of letters sent to Theograd from her husband in the Imperial Army
Free Orsinium
The Orcs of the Warthgorian Mts try and join the Empire. (Orcs in Tamriel are actually civilized, not the Orcs of Tolkien)
Random Quest Story
Some random unlikely heroes are thrown together by someone to do something.

I vote for random quest. Vampires dont really impress me Mabey the orc thing. But just make it darker and no love story (unless it works) and try not to get stuck in the cleshais(sp).
I think we can all remember the D&D flop from a few years ago. A movie with so much potential but the people in charge just dont hvae a clue as to the fanbase.

I dont ever do love stories. I also dont necessarily like happy endings. Those are two big cliche's I tend to stear away from.

Do a random quest thing and throw in some of the rest as encounters. I don't care much for the Daggerfall vampires, but killing them was always nice 
Or the one time my character took a quest to root out some Orc bandits from a ruin. What kind of wandering monsters do we have there? Rats? Nooo, big fearsome Vampire Ancients! How do the bandits dare live there?

Or the quest where I have to kill a lycanthrope...and I happen to be at the level where the entire freaking dungeon is filled with Werewolves....I had to clear the entire dungeon (no small feat at all) before I got the message that it was dead...and it ended up just being the bear on that quest. Oh well...I killed at least 2 dozen Werewolves/boars on that mission and picked up a Mithril Claymore....yum.

I've always been a dungeon fan myself, with lethal traps, Magic Traps, Mazes and so on.....

I like the idea of perhaps the History of a dungeon.. Starts as something fun and simple, and due to the people who control it slowly turning sour, the dungeon grows.. Might even tie it in with something odd like the hatred in their hearts...
At the end, somehow have the dungeon consume them , and then await its next victims.
