welll. grins
the basic premise i had for the overarching conflict was that all these completely independent fantasy worlds just exist as they usually would until the big bad of the campaign merges them all into One world through various means i havent figured out yet. its not any specific fantasy settings aside from a couple like neverland and wonderland . and oz bc i like oz. but its not based Strictly on that one map bc i wanna have the freedom to play around with different fantasy worlds if i want to. also if this was actually a campaign it would give players the freedom to pick any blorbo from a thing they like and then i can just stick their blorbos world in there somewhere. research pending
the idea im playing with for the big bad is a lonely god in a completely void universe figuring out how to bring all these worlds together somehow and then slowly draining the new world of its base magic in order to become more powerful. its not like All magic but like base magical principles of those worlds. so things like . animals in narnia randomly losing their human intelligence, people in neverland start growing up, over in hyrule the master sword becomes just a regular sword, etc. i havent thought through the logistics of this at all yet or how it effects things like spellcasting but i like the idea a lot
thats the basic gist im playing with currently. i would need a full cast to fully develop it but i dont want to limit myself to a cast in case it becomes an Actual campaign one day. but also i dont wanna put in the work to dm to make it one. not currentlyanyways. perhaps another time
im afraid the madness is setting in for me again (started thinking abt my conceptual fantasy crossover ttrpg setting based on that map where somebody put moominvalley next to middle earth)
#but i DO wanna plan absolutely everything out. story arcs and boss battles. bc of my predilections#anyways. these are the thoughts in my head currently#along with a COMPLETELY self indulgent subplot with funny guy panhead wrt the whole neverland thing. bc like.#a lot of peter pan adaptations that hve him 'grow up' just skip straight to adulthood and say Yeah he grew up and he sucks now#'he grew up into an angry man that lost all his childhood whimsy' 'he grew up into a petulent manchild' SHUT UP. YOU KNOW NOTHING#hook already exists so we can put that fucking premise to death already methinks#but nobody is exploring that awkward and scary middle phase between adolescent and teenager . and theyre not doing it transgender either#or if they are i havent seen it#anyways what if you one day became aware of the fact that you were suddenly growing up out of nowhere against your will#and even though you cant put words to it youre terrified bc you Know instinctively deep down that it means that peoples perspectives-#-of you will change. theyll see you differently and put new expectations on you that just Are Not You and its unfair and terrifying#its like body horror even. and theres nothing you can do to save yourself from becoming this Thing that youre Not#and also you realize youre gay#so yeah. a bit of mlm transmasc projection on my funny guy but what else is new#(wrt the gay thing i like Invented a darling descendent oc just for this purpose and now im attached to him too . erm whoopsie daisy)#(why is he here? got lost)#(theyd meet him in like the jungle of nool or some shit idk. anyway)#you can tell im sane right 😊 am i passing for average and normal rn
