[Online][EST][Other] Thursday7:00 PM Game Pitches for 3-6 people
Hello, I am a gm who would like to run a game online with several options depending on which would be the most popular with interested. Below are the ideas that I currently have and I am interested in what people want to do.
--------------------------------------------
Idea: The Land of Bidarrat and those who live there
Concept: The players will play as anthropomorphic woodland creatures in a similar fashion to Redwall or Despereaux. Humans exist in this world in a similar capacity to Giants or Fey. Engage with the world and deal with factions, in hopes that terrible things do not happen
Pitch: There are many players throughout the land of Bidarrat, such as the Duchy of Titania to the north, the earldom of Three Claws to the west, and for our story, the eastern duchy of Spalanx. The royal house is currently in a grand panic after the disappearance of the Duke Arneaux’s only daughter, Adeline. Apparently, there has been a ransom note left behind stating that whoever has stolen her has taken her far west, possibly into the land of the Titans, and will only let her go if given a grand ransom. Given this predicament, the duke has chosen you due to some renown you possess in your fields as adventurers to free her. Your mission should you choose to accept it, quite lucrative for you if you do, find the duke’s daughter and return her home safe and sound.
System: Either Legend in the Mist or Fabula Ultima, I am open to suggestions
--------------------------------------------
Idea: Into the Other Side
Concept: Normal kids from our world are flung into a world of magic beyond their beliefs and are made heroes, all the while dealing with their own issues and trying to find a way home.
Pitch: One minute you were just a normal person living a normal life. The next, you’ve found yourself in some other place with creatures that you’ve never seen before. Fortunately or unfortunately for you, you can see that there are others like you with you who seem fairly well armed. Regardless of this normality or lack thereof, you can see that that these creatures can be both hostile and dear to you, and the only way forward appears to fight forth. Will this world change you? Will you change it? Only time will tell, really.
System: Fate, Legend in the Mist, or another fantasy system that would work
--------------------------------------------
Idea: Claim the Throne of Heaven
Concept: All of the gods for one reason or another have lost their divine status, being dead, missing, or simply mortal. Players will take on the roles of several people with the potential to become new gods, encountering the other people with potential
Pitch: It started with smaller things. Perhaps the trees were losing leaves too early, or maybe the moon was oddly colored. Then the signs were unignorable. The oceans fell and rose like mad. The mountains started to break apart. Stars started to blink in and out of existence. The world had seemed to fall into utter chaos. Then, you found it. A small gem on the ground. When you picked it up, it shattered, and you heard a voice:
”The gods you know are long gone child, and so is their creation. Will you stand in this husk, or will you build a brave new world?”
So far, you’ve found each other, and given your shared experiences, you’ve decided it best to travel together to figure out what happens next, and what to is brave new world is to become.
System: Pathfinder 2e was intended, but other systems can be discussed
--------------------------------------------
Idea: A New World of Monsters and Men
Concept: Everyone has been mutated into mutant monsters after the detonation of a Gene Bomb, and now the players need to figure out how to adjust society
Pitch: The past 48 hours have been an overall negative experience for you. With a sudden flash of light, you saw you and everyone in the room you were in turned into mutants and monsters. You've encountered mutated animal men, demon looking people, creatures of mythology and legend, and that one guy that you would rather not touch. In all the chaos society has all but collapsed. But you can't. If you want to find a way out, you need to stay calm and put the pieces back together. If anything, this is a whole new world.
System: Fabula Ultima, but other systems could work if people have strong thoughts
--------------------------------------------
Idea: Thorntansel Magic Academy
Concept: You play as students at a magic/adventurers academy. Things start out fairly normal until you start solving some interesting mysteries
Pitch: You have finally been able to get into the Illustrious Thorntansel Magic Academy, one of the if not the best magical academy in the world. You have started attending your classes and are planning to look to the future. However, things in the school seem a bit off. Your teachers seem a bit too polished. You have odd questions about magic that seem to not add up. What was that whirring noise? Something in this school is happening, many things perhaps, and you're gonna get to the bottom of it.
System: Pathfinder 2e, Fabula Ultima, Kids on Brooms, or any other High Fantasy system that the players would be interested in
--------------------------------------------
Idea: An Adventure you Make
Concept: A Shonen Anime Style campaign that the players get to design in terms of it's power system, world, and plot
Pitch: People have been wanting to make action series as long as we have been telling stories about fights and combats. See interesting people do interesting things with their interesting powers. Once more, it's time to pick up the pen and start scribing these down. You will be responsible for creating this world, and you shall fill it with what ever it needs to satisfy your fancies. Are you ready? Then let's go.
System: Panic at the Dojo, Cloudbreaker Alliance, Valor, Fabula Ultima, or any other system wanted depending on the power system developed
--------------------------------------------
Idea: Legend of the Goddesses
Concept: A Legend of Zelda Campaign
Pitch: Throughout history, there have always been heroes. From the first time a hero ever descended from the heavens to smite the Demon King, heroes have gone through time, deep into twilight, across the windy seas, and even into the sky. You might not be a legendary hero or an inheritor of the blood of a goddess, but that's not going to stop you.
System: Pathfinder 2e using Paths of Hyrule or The Legend of Zelda: Reclaim the Wild
