Some ideas for RPM if it had up to 50 episodes, probably exploration outside the dome or seeing surviving rangers but one cool idea I had
Imagine a three parter called “Enigma”
When finding old records of Alphabet Soup, Venjix finds a prototype android, humanoid and similar in likeness to Dillon and Tenaya’s robotic makeup. The overall culmination of dread and deathly thoughts pulled together through humanity has followed to Corinth and the memories of the past world amplify it through the grid(similar to the popular Jung Theory of a collective unconscious that humanity is connected to).
These memories and dark feelings tap into the bioenergy of the grid and flow together into the android, the bot is named Subject-R4 or well goes by Azrin. We can refer to this Venjix bot as the grim reaper of sorts, the name is based on a few things. Azrin is short for Azrael being the angel of death and R4 here stands for Rust-4(Rist being a state of decay for industrial factors, similar to humanity being toppled in this verse, and in many cultures number four is associated with death)
Azrin’s form has some influences from various figures of death within media but I’d say some always I’d take would be Rio from Agatha All Along and maybe Stacey from Zenkaiger. Perhaps the human based on him might’ve been an Alphabet Soup test subject, Venjix form maybe a skull mask and cool cloak connected to mechanical aspects(a cool skeletal theme). His weapon is a scythe of course but also with the powers he has, I’d say mist and darkness also weigh in.
The idea is that Azrin is tasked with weighing down Corinth as a whole, with energy from the grid he sees everything and can feel the emotions of people. So his powers rely on reviving old memories, even concepts connected to said memories, examples being Scott’s brother, Ziggy’s past associates or relatives, for Dr. K it’s an army of people that Venjix murdered, etc, just imagine his entrance with most filling the city with deafening silence and you see the dude sitting on a throne of skulls👀😈
And with this the dread keeps spreading until it starts to rot out Corinth from the inside, the way to defeat Azrin might be more of a method of accepting the losses, find a away to get rid of the android’s own apathy towards the world and instead turn the threat into Venjix. Like if after they defeat Azrin he ends up fading by his powers form the bio energy connect to the hope and dreams embedded in humanity, thus helping the world to grow more plants or even sprout life again.
Would be a stretch but an alternate ending for the season where maybe his powers seep to Dr. K and with her own regrets and dreams they end up reviving everyone that was lost from Venjix. Still having a long road of rebuilding the world but everyone is back and ready to start over.
A little much but it had me thinking ngl, makes me wonder what other episode ideas you guys have but do tell me your thoughts?
