I've been watching The Shannara Chronicles lately and I'd love to rp something in that verse. I'm open to suggestions.

If you're not familiar with it, it's a medieval setting. The four races (Elf, Human, Gnome, and Troll) Hate each other and have their own lands. Demons are sealed away thanks to a tree in the eleven capital. Magic is rare, most think extinct, but it's there. Guns are a thing but rare as they're artifacts of human pasts.

Hey! I might be interested. After seeing the show on Netflix, I went and read just about everything Terry Brooks has written. (And, as usual, the books are way better. )

I'll give some thought to some potential plots...

I'm having trouble coming up with a solid idea that feels big enough to fit the tone of the books/show. Some rough ideas, maybe together we can make it cooler...

* Our characters are Rovers and venture into ruins, end up discovering something high tech from the old world. But they have no idea how to use it. End up creating a lot of trouble.

* Two druids (maybe set in the pre-Allanon days) are charged with recovering some ancient books. This could be pretty open.

* ?? I dunno... what are your creative juices saying?

An idea I have rolling around in my head is what if another race had some kind of mystical secret? Like the Elycrys or Wellspring but the Gnomes or Trolls control it.

hmmmm.... (thinking while typing, could be rambling. ;) ) something to do with the Forbidding? Or something else entirely? Maybe one of the other sets of elfstones is thought to be in troll country?

Though I also think runes and rocks when I think of trolls. Sometimes when I'm stuck for ideas, I like to browse deviantart. This is kinda cool: deviantart.com/fibacz/art/Rune-Circle…

Though I'm not sure exactly what it would do.
