TL;DR
- Alternate History/Fantasy World with a map we would need to develop.
- Mid-1930's technology and general political atmosphere, though with modifications.
- Have not decided on the degree to which magic is employed, or its mechanisms, but an open to that conversation and ideas. Different political ideologies may have different outlooks on magic, including the enslavement or use of magic users in a way that renders them unable to make their own decisions as a form of control.
- There was a WWI type war as destructive.
- The trend is increasing extremism in politics on both sides, nihilism and a lack of faith in liberal democratic institutions and the rise of authoritarian/totalitarian governments. All this exacerbated by post-war nationalism and the dissolution of empires, either through decline, overthrow or losing the war.
- Vinheim, formerly a conquered province of the Korelsk Empire (Now the United Socialist Republic of Korelsk) is in a state of limbo; conquered close to forty years ago, nationalist movements are on the rise within. While the USRK is in control for now, the USRK is engaged in a destructive civil war elsewhere. All the same, they will not let go of Vinheim without a heroic effort.
- A scion of the royal family is attempting to organize support for a restoration of crown rule, but that involves navigating the parties.
- I am open to ideas, but I think there should be a couple different narrative themes - what the leadership wrangles over and decides and the consquences to the people actually fighting the war. That said, I want two sets of characters; the 'powers' and the 'people.'
- This is a very 'drafty' idea, so I am definitely looking for other people's insight on how to fill in some gaps and structure things.
- So I have a Discord link so we can discuss things because there's a lot of hammering out to do.
- Sorry if this is shorter than my usual interest checks, but the idea literally hit me about thirty minutes ago.
