Custom Settings

[Blobathehutt]

If anyone has any custom settings please share them! I would love to hear about them!

[Sabersonic]

Could you be a bit more specific?

[Blobathehutt]

Like a world that you made up or something along those lines. I just wanted to see what people have come up with

[Sabersonic]

Ah, I see. I'll make the assumption that it doesn't include settings forged from a specific series or franchise.

If you turned it into your own I think it would be cool to see how you changed it.

No worries I have already seen your post

Going to run a game for some friends in a week or two, in a basic "Supernatural Martial Arts" setting. Not overly original, aside from maybe the Tribe/Clan structure of Martial Artist society.

Tribes form the largest groups of Martial Artists, such as the mighty Dragon Clan.

Each tribe has multiple Clans within it, such as the Jade Dragons (who are also the Imperial family), Pearl Dragons, Storm Dragons and the like.

Each Tribe has a Martial Art common to all its Clans, although each Clan has variant techniques and tactics, and have sufficiently diverged from the "core style" that knowing how a Pearl Dragon fights is no guarantee that you'll know what to expect from a Storm Dragon.


There are also spirits and monsters, but I haven't fully fleshed out their nature yet.

Sounds cool. Reminds me a little of Avatar the last airbender, You should check it out maybe it will help you out in someway.

Well I'm currently running a campaign that is effectively a gestalt of numerous Sunrise productions but is centered around the Gundam franchise. Basically its my retelling of the One Year War under the new name "Great Earth Sphere War" between the United Earth Sphere Federation of Nations against the Settlement Freedom League comprised of Zeon, the PLANTs/ZAFT, and the Space Revolutionary Army of the Free Republic of Noah.

The planet Earth, meanwhile, is recovering from a centuries-old asteroid impact that caused not only widespread geophysical devastation but also jumpstarted the next ice age with battles waged upon tundra and arid wastelands ala Mad Max. However the previous superpowers of the era, the Union of Solar Energy and Free Nations, Human Reform League, and Advanced European Union, survive as remnant powers in their Bernal Sphere orbital settlements but largely control nearly all access into space and more or less play a zero sum game against each other with these Great Earth Sphere War belligerent parties as pawns due to their collective control of space access and nitrate supplies. All the while the secret society Celestial Being lay low in the shadows to await their chance to change the world, but there is another party that wishes to prologue the war for unknown and unfathomable reasons.

That and pretty much all the Gundams are effectively giant cyborgs. That should about cover it for now.

Cool ideas here! I have kind pf been thinking about my own kind of post apoc Mecha game but I have not really put a work into it yet.

Heh, I own the full series already, as well as Legend of Korra, but thanks! I'm picturing relatively few outright elemental styles, though they do exist, and more Wuxia-style secret techniques and the like.

You should probably take a look at Gundam X then, or at least the first half of the series.

If only because I cannot think of a better example of post-apocalyptic mecha setting.

What about M.D. Geist?

Only thing I recall from that anime is some kind of power armor and robots, unless I'm mistaken and there are actual mechanical.
