HII SO IDK IF THIS IS THE RIGHT FOURM TO PUT THIS IN BUT I HAVE TO MAKE A STORY FOR AN ASSIGNMENT AND I GOT ASSIGNED TO DO A DYSTOPIA BUT I HAVE ZERO IDEAS OF ANY CONCEPTS TO BASE IT ON. ANYONE HAVE ANY PROMPTS OR IDEAS?????

OKAY SO THERES LOTS OF STUFF IN MY BRAIN BUT IM JUST GONNA NAME A FEW CONCEPTS I LIKE IN DYSTOPIAN

RANKING SYSTEMS. they're really fun to do and have a lot of possibilities

military forces. You need to have someone to inforce the corrupt law an ranking system

corrupt government heads

uhhh idk put a wlw ship in it cus I'm sapphic and love lesbians!!

to add on to what Clover said, you can also pick a concept or topic (religion, rights, etc.) and take it to the extreme. idk how to explain it really well, but The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood is an incredibly well written example of extremism in the dystopian genre. hope that helps!
