Yzabet and Rhazien were spat out on a random planet due to the improbability drive. There were giant penguins flying above them, and the ground seemed to be made of crystal. There also was a very, very, very angry young woman facing them. She had a really big sword.

"Who are you?" 

"Bastille Smedry." She growled, silver hair framing her angry face.

The improbability drive kicked in again, and the three of them (crockpot included) all fell out onto the ground of a world very different from the one they had just left.

The power wasn't stolen, but blocked. They escaped something that was inescapable on purpose, to create an interesting rag to riches arc, which he simply ignored in a stupid manor and continued along. The dimension may have been a bit overboard, but it was more to slow down the pace and show that if you start simply ignoring others input your arc can be screwed up. Anyway.

If Hitchikers and Alcatraz exist in the same universe, if Alcatraz broke an improbability drive would that make it a probability drive?

Yes but you're not the only narrator here, you can't decide for other characters what their arcs are then punish them when they don't adhere to it. It's considered polite to at least ask the player of the character before you do something like trap them like that, especially if its a pretty arbitrary decision, not motivated by plot.

5 Days later, and Rashan arrived at a small town in the middle of this Selish desert, the unkeyed metalminds all but empty, their wakefulness and warmth, as well as their calories had barely been enough to help him survive. No steel though. He wondered what was happening on the other side of the world. According to the civilians, some action was going down. Rashan sat back on a straw chair one of the townspeople had set up for him. Apparently one of the people in this town was a forger. As much as he hated Selish magic, he couldn’t help but be curious on the possibilities that awaited him.

If any one of you want to use Rashan in any way feel free, I don’t have much plans for him.

Nei'an saw this happen, confused like purple macaroni.

He then made some purple macaroni

Then he felt confused.

First, this whole thing started as a fight, then a cheesy romance novel, then one of those weird psych plots where nobody knows what in the beige is going on.

He sighed and began glowing beige. This trick, although difficult, could only be used in a situation that made it not OP. Such as this.

Everything went dark, mainly because he closed his eyes. When he opened them, he was on Roshar, facing Naermen. She fell back, startled.

"Where have you-" she began once she had recovered herself.

Nei'an winked and tossed her a paper airplane, which bounced off her forehead. Then, he winked with both eyes this time and started glowing once more. This time, nothing faded to black, because he kept his eyes open.

He appeared on top of Rhazien, his booted feet on Rhazien's upturned head. Because the effect had not yet worn off, as he still had a faint aura and his weight was still drastically reduced, he just stood there, nearly weightless, standing on Rhazien's surprised face. Well, he assumed it was surprised since his boots obscured most of the facial features.

"So, ah, this would be a good time to kill you, right?" he asked, awkwardly realizing his groundward pull was returning. He slid off Rhazien's face and dusted himself off. "So, ah, how's it going?"

Lopen created a Sel spike and spiked himself. He immediately absorbed all the knowledge and magic of the planet. He opened doors that were previously closed, froze. He learned things about the Cosmere no one but Devotion and Dominion had ever known. He discovered how the planet wanted him to ascend, so he did. He was now the most powerful user of the Selish magic system known to man, and would be so format least the next million years.
