Current As a chauffeur, you get a lot of time to read, and you can pick up stock tips listening to the conversations your employer is having in the back seat.

Lots of ideas, voices in your head? You may not be schizo, just need to find a plot and start writing.

Movie Studios don't use AI to generate scripts because they're not copywritable. My writing is mine, not the world's to play with.

I like that the Amish gives their kids a chance to decide if they want to stay in their parent's religion.

Bio

I am a seven-foot tall minecraft-playing hindu guru drag-queen alien.

Possessor of an Ancient Device™ Model 17. No, I don't know what it does. No, you can't play with it.

Pronouns: It. As in: "What is it? What does it want? Why is it here? Oh my god, it's got my... <insert random body part or object here>"

Likes: World Domination, Writing, Rpg, scifi/fantasy, anime, sketchup 3d models, and anime music videos.

Companions: a host of characters from other games, my personal muse Penny (as in Bad), and the Badger gang - Toothpick, Buttons, Shark, and Mongo. They grew up in the balcony of an old theatre that played a lot of gangster movies. Normally benign, but may invade the OOC forums.

Could be fun.
For two of my games, I asked the players what their character's favorite Monopoly piece was - the game being extremely popular among the Human Wilders. So I understand unusual asks.

I'd rather not make any real "rules" for what/how to worldbuild here. I want it to be a free space. But most roleplays that I've ran have, at some point or another, had at least one player think of some insane stuff that I couldn't have possibly anticipated when I wrote the rules out. Then I have to choose between allowing said insanity or adding more rules to the game.

So, if we end up needing to make guidelines for the worldbuilding, it'll go here.


Perhaps before someone brings something in, they should get your permission first?

But yeah, this could be fun.

So, for example:

Item Name: Living Wagon
Produced by: Any wagon-wright
Magic: No
Rarity: Uncommon, used by frequent travelers like caravaners, road nomads, and entertainers
Appearance: A long, narrow house built on a long wagon frame, either with canvas stretched over hoops or with paneled walls and a roof that is pulled by a team of horses. While the interior can be customized by the owner, typically there's beds at the front of the wagon and a small stove in a bricked section that allows it to be used for cooking and heating the interior without burning it down, with a chimney that pokes through the roof. Midway inside hanging from the roof is a hook for holding a lantern. Barrels, jockey and belly boxes can carry water, flour, grain, tools, ropes, canvas, and other essentials that are accessible from outside the wagon.
Intent: Comfort in road travel, a bit more protection than a tent.
Strength: Typically can carry a handful of people.
Weaknesses: It's confined living space, and requires some maintenance to axels, wheels, and harnesses. Not intended for speedy travel.

^_^ Thanks again!

Sure thing!

I will say for this game, for your character's history, you just have to worry about their history on Earth. Don't worry about writing their history (their new life) in the new world. I've got something in mind for the beginning of the game. ^_^


That's what I'm working on. Thanks!
I'm glad you like them. Just filling in the map a little bit.

I've worked out a preliminary history for my character, but I like to let it sit while I consider if it's right.
Midnight City

An underground (or possibly tucked away in its own stable pocket dimension) city, location unknown, but accessible from various portals typically found in dungeons or isolated stone circles for those who have a key.

It's a hidden marketplace for items you cannot find anywhere else, and it swarms with all sorts of beings.

There are two rules in this city -

1. No violence. No matter what, everyone in the city is safe from each other, lest they awaken the wraith of the Guardians or their golem minions.
2. Any claims made by the seller of any being, creature or object must be true. Any falsehood (but not omissions) will be fined the first time. Pray you never find out what happens with a repeat offense.
Question: Are we all from the same time period? I.E. the year 2022 of this Earth?
