Traveller's Café 2: Discussion, tea, brainstorming & advice

[Constaniana]

I get the feeling that the US South would probably have one of the lowest concentration of wizards per km² in the world.

Oh, they've got no shortage of Grand Wizards, believe me.

This gets a Zein mark of approval.

*pushes robes and hat under bed guiltily* No idea what you are talking about.

[Nightkill the Emperor]

Personally, I like the US as an area of magic. Melting pot and such. Interesting things abound that way.

American Gods is a fantastic example.

The United States is not a place of magic. People bring magic here; that is a bad idea. The point of American Gods, in other words.

You won the Internet!

[Gvozdevsk]

You know, I don't think I've ever seen an RP set in Canada. Unless you go to Quebec it's similar enough to America that potential American players wouldn't feel so culturally alienated, yet it's still not the same. Plus in the bigger cities you could meet people from all over the world so someone could have a character be literally whatever nationality they want.

[Alleniana]

Wondering; how about an RP based on management of a modern-day small scale government? Buy garbage trucks, raise policemen's wages, make statement about social media rumours, close school, repair railway, etc.
Not sure what would be played as yet, but it would be something along the lines of either a department or a province.

Ideas?
I've been looking at both managing a small island that's a province in a larger country, or managing a department on one of those islands (e.g. water)

This is going in my sig. I will find room for it, even if it's in my Extended Sig.

I got a reference to 'Murcah!

Any suggestions? All you educated folks should have some ideas on what makes islands geologically plausible.

Georgia resident. Can Confirm.

Tennessee and former Louisiana resident confirming the confirmation.

Also, vote for the lizard, not the wizard.

Dammit. Now I'm thinking about a setting involving the KKK and magic. Damn you all. You people have fucked me up.

Even if he was a corrupt fuck, Edwards had an incredible sense of humour. Duke must still suffer from all the post-election burns.

Sounds like Tropico.

As for geology, just make it volcanic. It looks as if the islands are in the middle of the ocean.

I have spent more time than I care to admit researching tectonics to figure out what types of fictional continents I could create, and I think it's safe to say it's not worth the trouble.

Well, I tried seeing if there was interest in a Flashpoint RP a while back and got none, so there's that.

I imagine Duke doesn't, given that the only people he could probably hang around with anymore are fellow neo-Nazis. Everyone else is probably avoids him because he's a white supremacist, or actively avoids him to avoid the appearance of being acquainted with him.

Hell, he probably gets sympathy shit from all his brainwashed followers on Stormfront.

10 bucks says the exact same RP would have gotten more interest if you replaced "Toronto SWAT" with "LAPD SWAT."

I'd agree with you there.

Speaking of, I will be posing soon.

I was in a RP about Canada being invaded by a far-right US I think.

Also, Stormtrooper RP is pretty much ready according to Brusia.

There was one I remember that Ceannairceach made a while ago, but it didn't get anywhere beyond the first couple pages.

I've found creating a very rough tectonic map is good for overlaying features like volcanoes, mountains, rock types, etc. but to be honest, I think I'll just leave these islands at a rough Palau-Hawaii-Nauru-etc. kind of climate. They were meant to be volcanic, and territory A is a territory because it's a volcano and it's erupting.

BTW, numbers are provinces, letters are territories.
