Greetings, all!
I'm here to pitch a potential plot for this wonderful Hellboy forum, so here it is:
For some reason, I truly do find it entertaining when normal humans are the villains in any story. I was inspired by reading these:
tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheUnmasquedWorld
tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/FantasticRacism
tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/HumansAreBastards
Although I'm a human, I love perpetuating this stereotype... ;D
(Not that I'm "anti-human". I merely like the concept, that's all.)
Anyway, in the aftermath of Hellboy II: The Golden Army, I imagined that many humans from all walks of life would treat beings (mythical, gifted, alien, and otherwise) with great disdain. Also, it is as my father and myself basically described such a situation:
"Whether or not people will cast aside their differences and forgo their petty hatred for one another, they'll doubtlessly unite under a single banner to challenge a greater danger, especially when they feel threatened and imperiled."
Indeed, it definitely seems that way when I saw that diverse crowd of humans basically ostracizing and condemning Hellboy in the second movie.
Thus, I decided it is time for humans to unite in universal villainy under the guise of species-based heroism.
This is where The Order of Humanity enters the stage. It's an organization that supports hatred toward all nonhumans in general.
Please, do give any suggestions and etc in order to let me know how good this idea is.
Thanks to all who took the time to read this and have a grand day!
