Beautiful map!

I did, I made Euphemia. CGng her now.

Yeah getting out and roleplaying with her is so much fun

Take my money.

I also want Magic in my L&L setting. Like real ATLA/ Witcher-style Sorceress (though not Aretuza, because who thought hysterectamies and magic were a good thing).

I'd actually like to see, somewhere where because magic is 'realtively common' like your farmer john type may have magic to deal with animals or the earth ( can you imagine how this would revolutionize food production, if the Farmer knows what the soil can support?

Farm Jon: We grew corn here last year, and beans the year before *does a ritual and in the day following finds that the Fae folk have given him like 12 options of crops that will nitrogenfix the soil, and produce better yields because they have been growing them in the fae realm, and all they ask for it fallow patch in the northwest corner, marked by a few boundary rocks, for an entrance and exist into the Faerie realm.

with a little note reading P.s. Remind your littles to at least knock before coming over the stones. We've had a lot of 'abandoned' human babes, in the past 2 centuries and we can only have so many changelings.

I love the initial posting. That was great.

We also need an L&L setting that allows people to grow and change- characters should be rulers because they're connected, with the /land/ and the people. Mystical rulership is always kinda cool.
As in (The royal person kicks the bucket) and the crow flies from the death chamber down the street... and onto the head of a woman who's cleaning the floors.

"You're our new queen".
(The maid who moved this kingdom like 6 months ago is confused).
"Yeah the crown picks the ruler, and you apparently are our new queen. It comes with a magic shield so assassins have a hard time killing you, Ma'm. "

Also yeah , just give me Blue Rose- Fantasy Age version) THE MU* and I'll be reasonably happy, with some more tweaks to the setting.

I think game that's very much 'Walking Dead', but one where moving is important. Move, stay live, find food and shelter. My problem with 'No Return' was that because it was set 19 years after the start of it all.. built had built and repurposed cities, gotten power and generators and something akin to normal living.

Not Bad. But it always skeeved me out in a way. I want my character to be surviving, with her companions, forming alliences and pacts, needing to find, food, shelter, and dealing with bites and broken limbs. Learning to shoot. Not watching 'FullHouse' inside safewalls.

I want my commuties that I encounter to be freaky and weird, and trying to be normal, but 'failing to be'. Enacting draconian laws to 'protect' its citizens. Making people who want to join jump through hoops.

I want the kids that are born who grow up in this new fucked up world, to be kid like and have their innocence ripped from them, as mom yells to go, and take the younger sibling as she beats a walker to death, and sets off a rigged Car explosion.

I also want to see groups forming and splitting up, not artificially staying together for long periods of time. "The Walking Dead" does it well. That group splits and fragments , and then rejoins itself. They loose people.

Also I want Walkers that aren't caused by a plauge or virus ( which should theorhetically 'burn itself out after a few years', depending on vectors of transmition, and immunity (After 19 years as in No Return, most people should be either immune or have developed some kind of resistance.

Ok my rants over.

Though my other MU* want is "Vampire" ( but like Trinity Blood, decadence, lace, culture, and back stabbing. But not WoD. I want... a world where 'Vampires' are ruling the world. Where humanity are their sheep and cattle. Where its good to be king, and politics and intruige rule ( also living Vampires.)

I'd love an FMA Setting! Actually with its Post Inustrial Age, WWII esque flavor. ( Come on Amestrisa is totally Germany-esque in some respects).

It'd be great. Also easily done, because you can set the game after say FMA:Brotherhood, and make the world very different.

You know "Shin Sekai Yori", would make sort of for an interesting Anime. (Since its not about the 'action, but how Fucked up Society can be... its a great show. Admitedly hever one has TK!, but its interesting, and really thrilling.
You'd need to do something to make it mushable a bit.

Dang I want this! But I play daeva lady types. Darn. Soo close though I am totally coming to stalk F&L.

This ia good list.

If you want Magical Girl Action, I vote :

Symphogear: here is the first open and ther are 5 seasons. It's EPIC .

I would actually like to see a universe, where post-Korra, the Avatar is gone for good. There will not be another -buit the nations are rebuilding themselves.

@bored

I would actually like to see the Capital / Imperial city, more Heian-Kyo vibes.

I don't enjoy being near the Wall, or the Crablands.(but that's me).

I am Crane/Unicorn style girl, so wild open plains for my horsey, and tea houses, Kabuki and all ikebana shops.

Just gotta say that is gorgeous.

@reason maybe build some rough pre built answers to help people narrow down. What clans they might be in.

@faraday it was more me pinning for the pretty colored clothing objects with their pretty ansi colors and descriptions. Vs. Say the actual how you get there.

Because a Lords and Ladies game is very much Fashionborne/fashionp*rn at its heart at some level.

Whether it be pretty clothing, a cool dragon, or a fine mystical sword that descended from the heavens gotta show it off at some stage.

I am for fun not nessacerily immersion.

@jennkryst Rokugan has no pokemon? Wait what it does? *makes plans to round out her ffg collection)

@faraday

Honestly i am torn. I miss 'Firan' in that context, but I also hated Firan's rigidity (I love the pretty custom clothing), but omg, I hated being charged 1000 stenis to go to the bath house so I didn't suffer social score loss).

I am a fan of a M&M 3e, sort of flavor as a base.
I like the menu-building approach (i.e. you can build a character with a 'Ray of X' power and its always a blast, with X, yards, with a Heat, or cold attachment. Type deal.

Something new but not complicated.
I love Lords of Gossamer and Shadow its easy (4 stats) and lots of options and its not an insane thing to code.
I miss the Road to Amber mush speaking of Lords of Gossamer (which is a TRPG derived from Amber Diceless).

For me, I want flexibility with not like Pathfinders 's 97 books worth of options. Anything we create or add should be self contained within the game with little reference material outside of it. (my 2 cents).

@runescryer

Please no. Please no 5e. Anything but 5e.
Mutants and Masterminds?
Lords of Gossamer and Shadow ( and come up with a dice system, as the game itself is Diceless), but not 5e for the love of all that is good and Holy!

(Sorry, 5e just ticked me off when they said they were not going to make PDFs you could actually purchase and take with you aand had rules and had to do it 'their way') because an SRD just doesn't feel right.

@ominous said in Alternative Lords & Ladies Settings:

You might be able to do a variation of my "every character is permanently on the roster and you just get to play them for as long as your logged in" idea. Players can have one character that is solely theirs. All non-exclusive characters (let's call the exclusive ones Feature Characters) are permanently on the roster and anyone can take them for a spin on a given night; however, they can only take non-FCs that belong to their FCs organization/house or non-FCs that are unaffiliated.

I am not a fan of this idea.
I do not like Rosters, because while it can create 'consistancy', (who is related to whom etc), it makes me feel like the character isn't mine, and that.. irks me.

I also don't like that you have to take character that are non-FCs belonging to their FC's organization.

What happens if Player A comes in after all the things they'd be interested in are gone? Do they just not play?

@runescryer
Not a bad start.

I saw we we mix a little Blue Rose in there & a little pern (because while candles are great, I think we should have hospitals, the scientific method, and electric and cool things. So most of this is written from the top of my head.

The Founders of the country were these Divine Birthright Scions, who were fleeing the destruction of the Old Kingdom(and by destruction I mean the kind they brought on themselves). [Truth: Space ships, psionic humans, nanotechnology colony finds the perfect planet]

They took all the small folk with them, and the Gods guided them across the boiling oceans to a new land.

Here this land was open to them. The land itself accepted them by offering anyone who wished to live upon it, choices. The divineblood of the other land needed to match the 'hummm' of this new land, and so the Great Beasts (Basically 'Rhydan/Companions' make links with some people so they're attuned to the world better.

Over time this Divine blood of Gods, spreads through the population like wildfire.
[Truth: The humans use their technology to modify themselves, increasing their psionics after discovering that the Great Beasts they've made contact with are sapient and are kineses weilders amoung other things (that being the most outward sign). Notably Greater Beasts, are bigger, and more intelligent than their mundane counterparts. (You have 'Greater Beasts & 'normal' animals. The normal animals from earth, seem to be compatible with the normal animals of the world. Scienticsts surmise that the world have have some kind of mental life force, since it seem to be using their animals as templates, and the Greater Beasts for communication. They note that there are no other humanoid lifeforms on the world.

(Just me blabbering and a round 1 kinda way)

@pyrephox I was hoping... To not be reminded of that. Hence the "solving" of the issue. sigh
