I posted this on IMDB, with pretty much no responses, so I thought I'd try here, were trolls and flame wars are a little less prevelant.
What kinda creatures would you like to see on Sanctuary?
I think a shapeshifting creature, one that can become any person (or thing) it wants, would be cool. Maybe it would be an ally, helping them with some problem. Or maybe it's neutral: just as willing to use it's metamorphic powers to spread confusion for chaos's sake. Or maybe it's evil, and uses it's powers to try and destroy the Sanctuary. Or maybe it's powers have left it with mulitiple personalities, it's trying to do all of the above, and the team has to work together to stop it/help it through it's maddness...
One idea I had for Special Unit 2 (a show that Sanctuary seems to share underlying concepts, like monsters being differently evolved beings), which would show some human that were more evolved than the rest: The Gods of Mythology. In my idea, keeping with the quirky cop show theme, The Pantheon was now a biker gang of what was left of various gods from different cultures.
For Sanct. I would go a slightly different route; maybe steal from the TOS episode "Who Mours for Adonis?", and have one single god left. Alone, rejected, and pretty upset at us 'mortals', he sets out to either:
1)make us worship him again
2)punish us in a very god like way
3)destroy himself, which must be done in a 'god like way'.
The team must stop him before this happens. Maybe Will tries to work past this beings 'survivor guilt' or whatever, or Ash beats him somehow, or Helen talks to him, immortal to immortal. For real fun, let Bigfoot or Henry be the one who 'talks him down': either by also being a unique being in a world that is not their own (bigfoot), or appealing to some aspect of the god's personality that makes him remember why he liked humans so much. In the end, he leaves, one way or another, and the team feels pity that such a powerful being could come to such a state.
Then the credits roll, and the trailer for "Zombie Boa II: Your Sister is a Weresnake" showing saturday at 9 starts....
