How Things Work
You are presented with two storylines, a giant playable area, and a New Wild West on your hand, right now you are able to join a gang lead by Oliver Jason Rodriguez better known as Fast Hand Ollie or to become a citizen in the small town of Big Iron, once a storyline one of your chars is in ends you will be free to explore the world I provided for you, explore the opportunities in it and see be the classic outlaw of Wild West, but with Lazer Revolvers. Multiple Characters are highly encouraged to be created.
Technology
As you may already notice there are a lot of new technologies involved and a lot of time between our time and the RP time, so, the most noticeable technological differences you will notice are
1. Androids
Yea, they are here, got their freedom from servitude from the 2nd Civil War ( history repeating itself, there are a lot of those similarities here ) before produced in mass quantities now one is manufactured only when a pair of Androids order it
2. Laser Weapons
No, no automatic weapons, laser rifles, laser revolvers and such, they are generally of the same shape as their bullet based counterparts but, their barrels have a lot of small optics and glow red
3. Hover-based transportation
You know the stuff, electromagnetic and such, Hovercars exist in this universe but are yet to come to New Great Plains, currently, the best option for getting around there is either a Horse or a Hover Train
4. Genetic Modification
Many animals were heavily modified for their colonization of Mars, like bison which was made smaller, or the horse which is now able to run faster and such, genetically modified animals usually get the prefix New
5. Cybernetic Implants
These can range from an eye being equipped with night vision to arm capable of lifting an elephant, people who get them are commonly referred to as Modified
Current State of Mars
Mars is divided into five sections, US Sponsored Mandate, EU Sponsored Mandate, Russia Sponsored Mandate, China Sponsored Mandate, and unclaimed land, our main focus will be on the US part, so, there are already five states there over an ocean and one giant territory of grassland dubbed New Great Plains, during the 2nd Civil War 4 out of 5 states seceded, mainly, New Virginia, Madison, Aubergine ( named after a great leader during the initial colonization of Mars ) and finally, 12 Islands, and the only martian born state to stay in the US was New Maine. New Great Plains are what you would come to know from Wild West movies, was grassland with occasional hills and sometimes a desert
The Map
Map made using Inkarnate
New Town: Largest Town in the Region, main hub for trade and other such activities, it is now already connected by Hover Transportation Inc. to its system
Blackberry: Small Town that has seen some growth in recent years but is still mostly unremarkable, mostly known for large wild New Bison populations
Margot Falls: A Small Fisherman town situated near one of the few rivers of the New Great Plains, the river itself creates a great housing for many of Earth fish, it needs to pay "Protection Tax" to one of the local gangs
Big Iron: A Small town, its biggest source of income, a mine north of the town has recently run dry and the town population has seen a large drop as miner's left
Old 2nd Confederation Base: Old abandoned base of 2nd Confederation, rumor has it there is still gold buried under it by its last commander
Desert Builders Camp: A Camp for the employees of Hover Transportation Inc. Building hover train railway, since the reputation of Dead Man Desert they are heavily armed, some say that the completion of the railway there will lead to the end of gang rule here
Mountains Builders Camp: A Camp for the employees of Hover Transportation Inc. Building hover train railway, regularly their chief tries to buy the town of Big Iron from the mayor
Ollie's Gang Hideout: A hideout of a gang lead by Oliver Jason Rodriguez or commonly know as Fast Hand Ollie after a series of duels in Blackberry that marked him as the most wanted man in that town and simultaneously a kind of man you here in the legends of the Old Wild West, the one back on Earth that passed 400 years or so ago
Aventura Brothers Gang Hideout: A hideout of a band of outlaws led by William and Jake Aventura, it most commonly raids whatever unlucky man is traveling near, they also usually take the "Protection Tax" from the town of Margot Falls
Dead Man Desert: A Desert separating West and East plains, the name of it comes from a large number of outlaws hiding in its hills
Barren Mountains: A nearly impassable mountain range, but, a large hover train company found a way through them, however, they would need to destroy the town of Big Iron for it
Albert Swamp: A big swamp, the only on New Great Plains, it is as deadly as it a great hiding spot so many that need to escape something and if they don't find a hiding spot in the Dead Man Desert, they will probably be here

To go in more depth, the “Heroes’s” transformation are going to be based off real life career such as Fry Cooks, Doctors, Nurses, Engineers, Career Soldiers, Pilots, etc., with their accompanying appearance, weapons, and powers being based off the job. Example is a Fry Cook which would be wearing the typical apron and cap as part of his suit/armor’s design while their weapon would range from a Spatula or some other thing, for abilities using fire for his special attack. And now for the associates, it’s something simple as being friends, people who know them, they just have to associated to one of the “heroes.”
Goal of the plot is to defeat a monster of the week and on occasion fight against other “heroes” to collect something I haven’t thought of yet. End goal will be to get everyone together to defeat the main villain that has been sending the monsters down to Earth.
Any suggestions? Questions?

Somehow this caused me to remember Fairly Modern Grimm. Still miss that RP. It had a nice nostalgic feel to it with its supernatural small town settings of Avalon and Grimmsdale. Though it wouldn't be the same without the old group.
Nonetheless I'd be interested in checking out the world of Arthe.

There's that moment in between that the king of vampires is actually afraid when the only thing keeping him alive his the shadow of the Batman. A monster of human justice/vegeance surpassing a monster of demonic evil. Such an awesome scene.

I am no longer as confident in the merger (both involved bloodlines that's about it) I have started work on a Greek Fantasy setting which has reminded me of Fairly Modern Myths as I considered a 'Percy Jackson' epoch (period of play) for our Greek Fantasy setting.
The only critical reception to Modern Mythos was it not using real world myth, which became an issue when players assumed the setting was Earth. Due to a renewed interest in mythology I find myself thinking about the setting and how I could have made it better and should not have been concerned about it 'being like Percy Jackson but not Percy Jackson'. I should have saw that as a strength rather then a potential point of complaint.

The merging of fairy tales and ancient mytholigies into a singular setting based on bloodlines is an interesting idea - my main concern however would be if the inclusion of myths would take away from the 'fairy tale feel' of the original FMG that had a Life is Strange, small town setting of Avalon and Grimmsdale and into something more epic and world-ending like.... well Percy Jackson. Myths would probably eclipse fairy tales due to their sheer status which could put the appeal of fairy tales into question.
Or maybe not - there would be more familiar options for players if myths were allowed alongside fairy tales - but fairy tales themselves would become a subset of larger mythologies, kind of losing their individual charm. Although the line between myth and fairy tale probably isn't clean-cut.

It is indeed not very clear cut, and you speak the concerns I have. The FMG bloodlines would certainly become 'lesser' in the setting should a merger occure unless the bloodlines where taken further back in origin which it's self would present a challenge or at the least be peculear. Like- trying to find the oldest mention of wolves in fable and myth.

I'd like to do FMG againif the setting is small-scale although I am unsure what the storyline should be - years back in the previous iteration I had the character of Clayton start off slowly in a slice-of-life manner, lulling into a comfort zone but hoping that somewhere down the line signs would emerge that something in the small town is wrong and perhaps even sinister, envisioninng a potential antagonist that decended from the Wolf - and then everything falling apart, at least for Clayton. Sadly it was all little more than vague quarter- formed ideas at the time.
Yet.... its kind of nostalgic... and I wonder if there's something interesting that can be explored about fairy tales and nostalgia - which again is just a vague quarter-formed idea.
What do you think can be used as an overarching plot for a FMG RP or should it be a more episodic and free-form structure going along with whatever players make up in the moment?

[b]NAME[/b]: (character's name here)
[b]SPECIES[/b]: (Is the character Human or not Human and if not Human what are they?)
[b]APPEARANCE[/b]: (an image or a description)
[b]HISTORY[/b]: (Where was your character born, what was the social and economic environment like growing up? Who were your character's parents, how is the character's relationship with their parents or how was the relationship? Is the character still there or have they left and if so why did they leave and in leaving what did they leave behind? Why did they leave it behind? What do they wont? Do they have some grand objective- to be the captain of their own freighter or to return to claim a lost title of nobility when the time is ripe. Not every character has an objective- nor will the objective remain the same. Life has ways of causing one to change their plans.)
[b]EQUIPMENT[/b]: (saber, comlink, etc)
[b]MANNERISM[/b]:
(Mannerisms are habits or practices such as for example people on Earth saying 'Bless you' after someone sneezes. It's things the character does without thinking that are usually very minor but add to the character- at times mannerisms can tell a story of their own. Perhaps the character has a tattoo on the back of their hand that they rub when nervous....)
[b]WORLD VIEW[/b]:
(World View is how a character views themselves and others in the world- it's anything ranging from 'group x is terrible and group y is great' to 'the exchange of ideas is crucial in universal understanding and the advancement of society'. World View can be summed up though as how the character sees those around them in relation to themselves. Researching such will also benefit you the player in understanding what role you have taken upon yourself to portray)
[b]PAIN POINTS[/b]:
(Pain Points are activities the character refuses to get engage in or finds the greatest difficulty engaging in. It's the sights that the character will attempt to avoid or the topics that they don't want to discuss)
[list][*]list[/list]
[b]DESIRES[/b]:
(Desires are the opposite of Pain Points- they are the activities your character seeks out and the reactions they relish. It's as mild as seeking the compliment of a crush or as extravagant as wanting to be surrounded with actual physical books. It's not the same as goals in that it's not a specific objective but rather environments or behavior they seek out.)
[list][*]list[/list]
[b]FEARS & PHOBIAS[/b]:
('Fear leads to hate, hate leads to suffering' - there are always fear. Some as mild as 'the fear of rejection' and others more rooted into one's psychie enough to be considered a mental illness- such as Agoraphobia. As the OP of this RP I assure you that I won't 'spam' your character's fears- I'm interested in plot not torture)
[list][*]list[/list]
[b]Droid Name[/b]: (Usually a product number like C-3PO but also includes 'pet names' like Red, 3PO, Clipper, or Skippy)
[b]Appearance[/b]: (What distinguishes this droid from others of the same model in appearance)
[b]Droid Model[/b]:
[b]Memory Banks[/b]: (What the unit remembers of it's existence, due to memory wipes and other factors this might not be the unit's full history but what it recalls and bases it's relationship status to be)
[b]Utilities[/b]: (the tools with which it carries out it's function)
[b]FORCE POWERS[/b]: (If your character is Force sensitive, what Force powers are they most skilled in, and how skilled are they? E.g. Have they mastered Force healing or Force lightning, while only receiving limited training in abilities such as Force speed or Force push? Note: Do please be reasonable here and keep your character's level of training in mind while listing abilities; no one should be a master of everything.)
[b]Ship Name[/b]: (Name of ship)
[b]Ship Model[/b]: (Model of Ship)
[b]Amenities[/b]:
[b]Armaments[/b]:
[b]Additional Features[/b]:
[b]Notes[/b]: (information not covered in the above sections)
