Given that the bad guys also draw from the same pool of powers, I feel like we've missed out on out telepathic, time-stopping nemesis and his army of brain washed innocents.

Also, added more stuff.

Hmm, you make a valid point. Expect to see Illusion, Mental, Chronomancy, and Conjuration back in there.

Man, these are awesome, keep them coming guys. I am trying to get just a bit more (and adding things on my own to the list) before I generate the world we are in and characters.

After adding everyone's suggestions to World settings along with ones I already have, I have now rolled on the name table and for our world settings.

Our world is

Rundquist

With the advancements of steam based technology, we have managed to achieve the impossible. Man and technology are finally crossing the border into becoming one being, vehicles that can literally pull out of your driveway and right into the sky sit in every home. Weapons that can blow through a door to create a blade of light are known to all and in the hands of a select few. Men and women dress like they are from the Victorian Era, however fanciful gadgets and steam based technology is what rules the day.

The World is ruled by a single government, which is divided into subsections based on geographical locations which are then divided more, but in the end they all work for a single group, and this group is simple known as the Government. Only one group sits outside their influence, and not because the government wants them to, they are simply just too powerful for them to overtake. They are named after their found, Neapolities, and they are the closest thing that people have to advisors. Their skills with the technologically impossible blades of light and use the way of "Neapolitan" to manipulate objects around them, seeming to read peoples minds and influence events. There are rumors that there are those that go against the Neapolities, but no true face of the enemy has been shown.

There are other rumors though that just can't seem to be squashed. Rumors of those that drink blood to sustenance rather than eat like humanity normally does. Those that turn into monstrous wolves on command. Rumors of great burly trolls and little fairies, and as much as people know these are lies, they never seem to die, and there are some out there that will tell you these things really are true.

I'll start working on generating characters for people in a bit, though feel free to continue adding to the master tables, I very well may need to roll more world settings if we end up going to another world.

So a Victorian era style super high tech steampunk world with a world-wide unified government, ice-cream ~~powered~~ themed jedis (or was the name just randomly assigned with no actual relation beyond being the name?), vampires, werewolves, and other fantasy creatures?

I love it.

Hahahaa, this is awesome. XD

I love it.

The name of the Jedis was randomly rolled so that is what came up, but I am trying to decide whether or not to actually give them ice-cream source of power or not.

Ice cream or not, if you don't make use of a white/brown/pink or vanilla/chocolate/strawberry pattern somehow, a lot of potential is being wasted.

Wasted!

The fact that you have to think about that makes you a terrible person.

Also, what phil said.

Inbred Chocobo · 08-17-2012, 05:09 PM

Okay, so I know I have to do something with the ice-cream Jedi council. Also, I did realize how many different random systems it was going to take, and its takes a surprising amount of time to fuse backgrounds together to make them make sense.

However, I present the very first PC character, Phil_'s

Player: Phil_

Name: Dan "The Man" Watley

Race: Werewolf

Description: Stands 5'11 and Keeps surprisingly well dressed, prefering things such as suits and ties rather than jeans and t-shirt style clothing. A man of honor and reason before emotiona responses, he tries to keep a demeanor opposite of what he is, as that is his way of fighting it.

Powers and Abilities:

Werewolf: You have a ton of strength and endurance, and can take punishment. You can shift into a hybrid form, which gives increased strength and better endurance, with the sacrifice of the ability to speak clearly, and you can go full wolf, in which you are a wolf (albeit slightly bigger than normal) and anyone that sees you falls for this. You always have a strong hunger for food, particularly meats, and sometimes anger issues. (thanks to roles in your demeanor however, you are in really good control here.)

Herbologist:The knowledge of creating medicine. Capable of creating simple matters as balms to remove burns, cures to poisons, and full rejuvinators from death. (To Elaborate: Its rather easy for you to find herbs that can heal wounds, burns, and poisons, and you probably carry a small assortment with you already. You have ideas on other herbs, but you are right now trying to find special ones that actually have the properties that you are looking for that can do things more than just treat, special ones that can remove pain itself, clear the mind and make it incredibly sharp, and find one that could even cure death itself.)

Background:

Dan was born a werewolf, and grew up with his pack in the Northern territories, where winter was around 9 months of the year and threatening the other 3. The life made it hard on him, but there he learned how to use the few plants that grew there to great use. Even at a young age this made him curious, and soon after he grew tired of the same day in and day out of hunting and eating, and moved into bigger civilizations. He somehow managed to wiggle his way into schools, were he quickly adopted the high-class ways of acting and dressing, and his skill with herbs and natural medicines sort of made people overlook his past of coming from the northern territories. (However none know he was actually also a werewolf.) Alas, schools and colleges would not hold his interest long, and now he travels looking for ways to improve his herbal craft and learn as much as he can about it.

Its going to take me a few days to generate more characters, next one won't be up until Monday.
