I would listen to a 50 shades audio book if that guy read it.

I'm tired of grimdark settings (in videogames and tabletop) with "mature" themes, etc. It's rarely used in a meaningfull way.

So i often think about creating a really noblebright setting with green forests, floating islands, kind people and almost caricatural evil sorcerers, vilains, etc.

Something really optimistic.

>>45937389
So have you done anything with it yet?
its a fun idea, why not try and make something with it?

>>45937445
Partly because i have no idea where to start
But mainly because i'm lazy af

Tenra Bamsho Zero is a rather over the top setting dominated system, where you can be more monstrous for more power but grow ever more like an NPC. There's robot gunmen, alchemy dudes and other stuff that I can't remember off the top of my head.

It's very episodic, fast paced, intended to have one campaign a session or so, and you have a bunch of damage tracks that allow you to take more and more damage but also get more powerful until you choose to die; in a blaze of glory.

I've never actually played it, only skimmed the rules and thought it was cool.

>intended to have one campaign a session or so,
Holy fuck what.

I've always wanted to see a type of plant people that are pretty much giant living buildings.
A single tree could have a number of growths so its mind is a entire forest. It cultivates the plants and animals like a farmer or shepherd.
People may treat the forest as a god, they hear it whisper to them in the wind and it tells them when the mushrooms are blooming or when the herds need trimming.

But nope it's just Larry the old tree in the middle of the woods doing his thing for generations.

You want 2 thing:
1. To rule the entire world with an iron fist.
2. To be a beautiful woman.

About a month. Individual people would be figuring it out on day 1, but it would take about a month before everyone got wind of it, and tried it themselves, or saw someone try it in person.

He stiffed them on payments and insulted them, then tells them to fuck off? Did you expect anything different from what sounds like a mid level murderhobo party?

>>45935322
No, just didn't expect them to do so that very second. Figured they go for the civil war thing. What I had planned, anyway.

>>45935344
Sounds like you gave them the 'yes man' option now all they hear is this https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=L53gjP-TtGE

Feel free to be as creative as possible, if you had an idea for a land that is entirely controlled by ratfolk and they enslave all the humans and use them like cattle, that can work.

If you've had an idea for a specific city or land cooking for awhile let it rip!

and i just realized i went from 11 to 13 because I'm an idiot

Right, so, the missing twelfth realm. The master of it accidentally thought himself out of existence; alternately, it's right there, between the eleventh and the thirteenth, but it doesn't show up on a map and you can't get there by walking.

Speaking of the dangers of letting your environment reflect your innermost self, how about a realm that has been transformed into a maze-like prison meant to confound and contain the lord of the realm's darker inclinations, which his subconscious has made manifest in a kind of horrible monster. The lord twists the realm into an endless labyrinth of ever-changing, ever-treacherous corridors to keep his demon at bay. The kind of place that constantly defies logic. Denizens have built some unusual towns out of necessity.

Similarly, any mentally disturbed lord or lady could make for a strange environment.

Angels are likely created partially using Carnymancy so that portals treat them as casters. Remember, they're Charlie's creations and he's loathe to accept any law.

Also remember that it was only one very special, fated Archon which actually managed to escape through a Portal. She probably survived much in the way Parson did, despite not being a caster.

GK would never be allowed to Decrypt the free casters (or any aligned casters) in the Magic kingdom
>It can be justified thusly
No, it cannot. Nobody wants a Decrypted caster, seeing as they owe absolute loyalty to GK, which has broken truces before, and essentially provides an enemy faction one of your assets. Better to let them depop and be done with it.

GK will probably spill the beans to Don King, who will likely deliver them to Jetstone.
Ivan Poe & Co. will likely be seized by Charlie, or escape to a permanent job with him.
The Magic kingdom is forever soiled by bloodshed and murder, and its use becomes much less popular, with only unaligned casters who have nowhere else to go staying there.

An important question right now, is how much do they want to share about Charlie to all other factions, and whether the Great Minds have decided to openly state their hostility to Chalie.

>>45934759
Primarily because the way magic works in the game means there's way fewer things to really break. You're still dependent as fuck on your party.

>>45936122

That still fails to address why their type alone receives higher-level abilities as they gain levels while the two mundane types have no higher-level abilities.

That sound good?

It's not fair to your opponent if they spent real money on their piece of cardboard. If you and your friends are all doing a print-out like you're suggesting, then no problem. But if your opponent's cards were all bought legitimately, you have to get on their level.

>>45932394
I have a question for those who shop in cash-based stores; Why don't you just find the bills you want online and print them out to purchase with?
I'm not saying you try to pass them off as real ones, but what's the point in withdrawing real money when you can just print it?
Thanks

>>45932644
That's illegal
