EXPLORE MAP - All sorts of talk has been abounding in Neopia lately concerning
the new world. With a new plot to follow, and even a new war on the horizon,
Meridell has
certainly risen to its peak of popularity.
What other worlds can we expect in the future, though? Certainly Neopians
have been hoping for a medieval world for some time, and now that they have
it, what new themes can we look forward to? I've included in this article a
list of only a few themed worlds that we can (hopefully) anticipate in the near
future of Neopia.
Orient Theme
This could explain where all of that sushi is coming from. Perhaps this could
introduce a new monarchy with a vain princess named (insert catchy Asian name
here) who can't seem to find her favourite Kimono. The kimono could actually
be an ancient artifact that was stolen by a tribe of vengeful ninjas whose leader
was killed by a warrior princess wearing the kimono. Perhaps this could unfold
into a quest (like NPv2 or The Crown Hunt) in which whoever can find the kimono
first will be entrusted with the duty of stopping the ninjas from murdering
the princess (who has a striking resemblance to the warrior princess, her...
er... mother.) After the battle is fought and won, the royal family will reward
all of the Neopians (who fought, anyway,) with a hefty reward of NP and items,
and the world will be peaceful once again and open to the general Neopian public.
The End.
There could also be games such as 'Stack-a-sushi,' a tetris-like game involving
different types of sushi and sashimi, different festivals for special times
of the year, and even sliding paper doors!
Roman Theme
In this world, there could possibly be a contest yearly where Neopets compete
to be the next annual Caesar (or Caesar-ess as the case may be.) This may not
have been traditional in ancient Rome; however, this is Neopia, isn't it? Perhaps
there could also be a Coliseum. Maybe your pets won't be viciously slaughtered
by a pack of rabid lions, but there could always be an alternative. There could
also be many fun games involving this theme. That's right, take off your sandals
and hop in the grape-squishing fermented fun of NeoRoman wine making! There
could also be games somewhat to the effect of Chariot Racing, tapestry making,
and even a new plot! Who knows?
Kauboy/girl Theme
I'm surprised this world doesn't exist yet. Dress your pet in a ten-gallon
hat and boots and send them into the wild sunset on their trusty steed, (ER
maybe a Kau or a Uni,) in this western world. Perhaps you won't have to settle
for the normal Rainbow Gun here; it might introduce new weapons as well, (all
based on jelly or asparagus or cauliflower or something else equally bizarre.)
And what will be the best thing about this world? High noon showdowns, of course!
Invite another pet to a showdown on the Main Street; something like a Western
Battledome, if you will. What else could you expect from this world? Western
food! Spicy food (really spicy food) is what the cafés and restaurants could
offer here. Maybe this world could explain where Moondrops
the Enchantress came from.
Hollywood Theme
Every aspiring actor/actress's dream! Send your pet to a team of critics to
determine whether or not they can be Neopia's next acting/directing sensation!
Once they have a contract, maybe they could star in a commercial to get on their
feet. Then it's off to the movie studios once a director and writer request
that you be in their movie. Who knows--maybe you'll have your own star on the
street! In the meantime, there could be a cooking contest to see who will be
the next famous Neopian Chef; (just supply a recipe for your dish. It could
become the next gourmet food!) Lost Worlds
Raise your hand if you want to go to Kiko Lake! Lilac Island, maybe? For quite
a while lost
worlds such as these have been tantalising explorers; and although many
of them wish to visit the Air Faerie Cloud or the Endless plains, they can't.
Perhaps some of these will be revealed in the future. In the meantime, let's
just hope for the worlds above.
Note: I cannot guarantee that any of the preceding worlds will
ever exist, or that if they do, any of the activities or plots will ever exist.
In the meantime, isn't Illusen
waiting for you in Meridell? |
