More if I can think of them, used to read like a bookworm.

>You are a young man named Lloyd from the frozen Northern mountains of Tordo, on the continent of Teege. After a youth spent learning magic, you and your girlfriend spent some time as bandits after your home was destroyed, but have recently taken a chance to escape that life into a legit one... As sellswords, admittedly, but it's better than nothing. When the situation calls for it, however, you might take on the POV of a character somewhere else for a thread.

Mom walks up to the table Asai is sitting at. The perpetual smile which he normally has plastered on his face has been replaced by a more stern and solemn expression.

Immediately, Mom pounds her palms right on the table.

"Here I am, you got to see me. Can you turn everything back to normal now?"
Right, Mom. Like I haven't tried that one with him already.

I am Itsukuma Masami, it's been a tough day.
Fortunately! The person who is the reason that it's a tough day is sitting in front of me. I have him in this time-out place I invented which should safely contain him and keep him from causing more trouble.

Unfortunately, he's already caused so much trouble that I'm not sure how I'm going to undo it. Like for one, he unleashed a giant monster on the city, and I don't have a giant robot or a belt to fight it!
I need to stop watching Sunday Morning kids shows.

"Izumi. Sit down." Asai beckons to Mom. She merely glares at him.

Asai looks in my direction, noticing that Kaori, Julie, and myself are still here, and then looks back at Mom.

"I would greatly appreciate it if we had this conversation in private."
"I refuse."
"No!" Julie yells. She's been saying that a lot lately.

"It's fine, without his building he's powerless." Mom crosses her arms. "He has way more to be afraid of with me being here."

"Mom, I insist that I stay!" I pull at her sleeve.

"Fine, I'll let Masami stay, but that's all. The rest is personal business between Izumi and I." Asai smiles wryly.

I get a chill down my spine, that guy is creepy.

>Fine.
>No!
>I'll just excuse myself.
>Go hide the others secretly. This is YOUR house after all. You can find a place to hide them so they can eavesdrop.
>"Please just get this over with, it's been a long day.."
>Other?

So I have been wanting to find or make a system for the World of Twelve universe for a while now, I have seen several threads about this, and people claiming they have a system or parts of it, I've even seen a thread where someone claimed Ankama has already an RPG system for this, only its in French, and I could not find anything about that outside that thread.

In any case I would like 2 things from this:
1. Is there an RPG system out there that has this setting? official or not I would still want to have a look at it.
2. If not, can someone give me suggestions for a easy to mod system that could fit this world? Most RPG systems I have looked up that could be modded have a ton of extra shit in them I need to take out and after that I need to rebalance the whole thing around those changes (for example Savage Worlds), so I'm not looking for that kind of work. So far I came up with a bare bones character structure using 5 stats (Strength, Agility, Vitality, Intellect and Charisma) each affecting other secondary stats of the character
(STR => melee attacks and is linked with the element of Earth;
AGI => ranged attacks, is used to determine the AP of the character and is linked with the element of Air;
VIT => is used to determine the HP of the character and the MP as well;
INT => magic attacks and is linked with the element of Fire;
CHA => some magic attacks but mostly healing and buffing and is linked with the element of Water;)

Thank you guys!

“What are you, some kind of photographer?”

The rude security man seems to take pleasure in checking out everything duffel bag of camera supplies. You would rather be setting up for the governor of this province to arrive and snap the perfect picture for the papers. Or at least that's the story. The bodyguard gives you some shit over your pocket knife, a stainless steel folder clipped on your pocket. Ultimately, you are allowed into the press area as a photographer representing an obscure Some-shit-or-another Shimbun, though you are a fraud. The other reporters are like zombies, fueled by a combination of coffee, adrenaline, and cigarettes.

You've been hired by a mysterious client to assassinate the mayor of the town of Sekigai. Your tools are back in your hotel room, disassembled. You head up to the second floor of the press stands and set up a tripod. Before putting your eye to the viewfinder, you pull a cigar from a tin in your jacket pocket and light up. In your mind's eye, the decorated palaquin pulls into your vision, surrounded by lavishly decorated attendants. The buildings will be lavishly, of course, decorated. It will be dark, and your glass will be doings it best to such in as much light as it can. Custom coatings of your own composition will do their best for light transmission and to enhance the contrast. When you aren't assassinating people, you make an honest living selling expensive cameras with lenses of your own design and grinding.

the pastebin are a bit of a repetitive mess right now, they work, but if someone wants to organize them better he is free and welcome.

Need a name for a pirate crew. They used to be sky pirates and at some point may return to that but for the foreseeable future they're typical ocean-going pirates. More than thematically appropriate though, my preference would be towards "cool" sounding, or phonetically memorable or catchy.

The typical pirate crew naming style of the setting is "The *something* Pirates" or "The *something* Crew", but a better name is more important to me than sticking to the typical naming conventions. The sort of name where you might read through a list of various pirate groups with just the names and little to no info, but see this one standing out and think "Those guys sound interesting, I want to know more about them."

What games do "elves and wizards, kick down the door and slay the dragon, knights in shining armor" high fantasy better than D&D. I can find a game system that does just about anything else better than d20, except for this.

That's a great game and I really like it but it really feels like it's strongly tied to its setting.
