What's your favorite crossover/mashup of things that usually go in different settings?
I love it when Japanese ninjas show up in my wuxia.

I'm a fan of monsters in modern era settings. Hell I've been making a 1920's setting that boils down to the great depression and big monsters (all referred to as "kaiju" for now) with all that entails (gangs running some places shaking people down for "monster insurance" and the like while bootlegging).

You know Ninjas originally came from China right?
Magic in a (semi)realistic setting.
>>54705501
No, they are a cheep distraction real ninjas hire to act as bait
>>54705501
Yes they are.

Funny Coz I love adding 1920s mobsters to everything.
Even when ringing DnD all the monsters races speak with Sicilian accents and like to think of themselves as legitimate businesses men.

That's like saying cop police
>>54705501
Ninjas originated from Budhist monks who migrated from mainland China to spread their faith so Ninjas are technically allready Wuxia...

cop police vs police cops

I'm so fucking mad we're never going to get anything in Redsteel 2's setting ever again.

Japanese ninja are significantly distinct from their Chinese origins.
Incredibly hard SF and magic that breaks the rule of that hard SF.
This is rarely done though. You have science fantasy and soft SF like star wars or W40k, but not true hard SF with magic.

Yeah, I want Chun Li to break out some ritual spells

Hi there, George.
Also, aliens in fantasy is genuinely mine. In every setting I make, I always make an effort to have a location where an alien ship crashed at some point. Especially the fantasy settings.

Space Westerns.
Commonplace fantasy in a modern setting. E.g., seeing elves on the train you ride to work, goblin carnies, and everything >>54706937 is into.
Alien focused sci-fi that also happens to have ghosts. No pseudoscience explanation about electromagnetism or whatever, just plain dead people who won't move on.
>>54701777
Pirates, samurai, monks, barbarian tattooed warriors with cannons, adventurers and knights.
The setting is called "16th century Asia" btw.
