WORLD DESCRIPTIONS

Wildtouched Earth (better name needed).

Notable PCs: Richard, Melody

This is a modern earth, with a timeline roughly in the new tens,

depending on my storytelling needs. It's a low magic, masquerade

setting. Most people don't know magic exists, and of those that do,

the secret is closely guarded and kept protected. There are three

main races so far: Humans, both magically capable and normal ones,

Wildtouched, who are shapeshifters into a single animal form and an

anthro shape, and Cursed, who are the result of magical attempts to

become wildtouched and are more traditional lycanthropes.

Into all of this, you have the Lapis Lazuli, who want to learn more

about magic and are nominally a government black organization, the

Druids, low magic people who help maintain the masquerade and protect

the Wildtouched, the Wildtouched themselves, mages who want to gain

power, and in the fae, who may ultimately be responsible for the

existence of WIldtouched at all.

Three Pantheons

Major PCs: Nathan, Thenyr

History goes exactly as normal until mid August 2001, when the plane

of magic and deities realigns with the mundane plane of earth,

bringing "realms" into existence in the locations of the Scandinavian

peninsula, Grecian peninsula, and Egypt, populated by monsters and

gods from the respective mythologies and pantheons. Inside the

realms, magic works, but technology doesn't, and vice versa for the

"Scientific realm", which is all the rest of earth not subsumed into

the realms. The gods aren't all on good terms with each other, and

they're on worse terms with most nations and earth religions, and this

forms the crux of the conflict. However, the realms are actively

explored by enterprising "realmwalkers", and those who hire them.

Some for adventure, some for money, some for exploration. Takes

place roughly 2020s.

Wings and prayers

Major PCs: Kawheek, Thenyr

Based off the Greyhawk D&D setting, this includes the Thordani and

Asari as existing races in a small area in the southern part of the

Hellfurnace mountains. Religious birdpeople who venerate Faenya,

they're at roughly a Bronze age technology level and fight to maintain

their villages against the encroachment of nearby powerful monsters

and fire giants. Furthermore, they seek to rid the world of undead

and worship the sun. Year irrelevant. They are a martial, tribal

people with little trust for 'book magic' or arcanism, though they're

fine with divine holy magic. Primary conflict themes are survival,

family, and maintaining the tribe against enemies.

Winds of change

Major PC: Patrick Altair (Cassandra Delarose canon immigrant)

In this setting, people going through puberty transform into an anthro

animal with possible superpowers. The reasons are lost to history so

far, but the world has been drastically changed by this since 1996(the

date of the first changes of everyone over adolescence) and even more

by the Plague War (known as World War II in our world). Population

is about half what it is in real life. Powers run the gamut of

everything you might see in comic books, and everyone is a animal of

some degree (percentage towards animal form), with 50% mammal, 25%

avian, 15% reptile, 5% aquatic, and 5% Extinct or other vertebrate.

Primary conflict arises in coming-of-age stories and general

interpersonal relations, made more complex by the morph variance.

Additionally, the Natural Order, a group of predator supremacists who

wish to take over and eliminate prior history, lurk in the shadows.

Fur, Fury, Space

Major PC: Arrow Quincy Vershaft, (possibly Redtai Dacolis)

Following the discovery of an alternate universe with a high number of

habitable planets, our prime timeline used a one-time event to spawn

over large amounts of intelligent colonists. Unforeseen events

resulted in not all of them being human, and consequently, anthros and

mythical morphs. Think Wing Commander meets Starfox for general

feel. Interstellar space opera to an extent, with aliens pressing

back on the "genesis" races in various wars. Mercenary ships exist

as a major source of military buffer. In the core canon for Jeff,

computers do not work below the "Mainframe" level, although I've

futzed with this myself enough to not be a hard rule. Originally

dealt with the crew of the Cause, but at this point I'd feel

comfortable moving beyond that.
