It's The World Building Thread!

I hope my summary of Friend or Foe 1 didn't leave out any pivotal things. It was hard to read through the high-points with all the screwed up formatting of everything prior to '09.



Friend or Foe 1 (2004) – Several warriors were taken to a cabin on a remote world. With the chance to win a Dragon Ball, the combatants were placed in teams and thrown into various locations with maps and tasks to complete. Despite finishing their tasks, the survivors were sorted into new teams and thrown out into the landscape with new objectives. Throughout the bizarre contest, many bonds of friendship were tested. The combatants were forced to call their morals into question as they sought out the medals needed to claim the prize. When an army invaded and the warriors started to grow out of control, Brim (the host) began to have his composure slowly eroded. Soon, Brim was forced to take down the surviving contestants, and after forcing them into combat with a woman named Akira Dezmon, he personally fought Bra (the future King of Vegeta). In the end, Brim found himself confronted by Goku, Gohan, and Goten—a father and his two loving sons. In the end, Goku defeated Brim.


Friend or Foe 2 (2005-2006) – The popular sequel to the hit 'reality' show Friend or Foe. For this event, the contestants were sent away to the barren asteroid Kala, which had formerly been home to a small population. The contestants, who were whittled away at regular intervals either due to injuries or attempts to keep up the ratings, explored the ruins on Kala. They faced zombie-infested hospitals, giant monster-infested caverns, and the depths of their own depravity. Midway through the contest, the Final 21 were incarcerated by the host and executive producer, Brim. Despite his plans, they escaped, and as the situation on Kala descended into chaos, Brim found his death at the hands on one of the contestants. In the wake of it all, the survivors were rescued and forced to endure the darkness within their minds. The remaining eight contestants found themselves caught in the middle of a struggle between a group of angels and the minions of a demon called Satan. Although the 'game' was long over, the survivors stayed to see the conflict to its conclusion. In the end, the three remaining from the original pool of forty-two (Reijin, Bra, and Android 17) partook in the final confrontation between the angels and demons. Through the bloodshed, Reijin rose to new heights, becoming a Super Saiyan 2 and defeating Satan. Thus, the bloody saga on Kala drew to its close, with many unaware of the true cost paid by the men and women who gave their lives.

Friend or Foe 3 (2009) – An homage to the original reality show that claimed so many innocent lives, Friend or Foe 3 began by pitting groups of warriors against one another. Now hosted by Kai Demonlic (the 'stage name' of Gregory Rogers), the contestants soon found themselves facing various challenges from the host's personal goons. After a very dramatic battle in an old ghost town, the survivors set out to defeat said goons and obtain emblems that unlocked the inside of an old temple. Before they had a chance to confront Kai, they had to confront their own ruined futures. Of the five original contestants, four—Sophia, Ashe, Piper, and Sage—went to challenge Kai Demonlic and put an end to his plot. The four battled the madman within the heart of an active volcano, with Sophia making the ultimate sacrifice to try and bring down Kai. In the end, the genius had become a scheming madman as his show's popularity grew, and in the end, he got to watch as Piper and her surviving friends escape as he sank, crying and alone, into the gaping maw of the volcano.
