Setting:
Synopsis ---
- A gathering of heroes in an Apocalyptic landscape.
An unknown person or force has 'plucked' individual heroes from their respective times, places, and even worlds. This means that the characters played can be anyone, from a jedi knight to a court mage, or even a genetically mutated super hero. Each character is deposited on their own into this world and it is up to them to explore the reasons for being there, interact with others, and decide what to do with their situation -- will they decide to conquer this new world for their own, defend it, or heal it?
From time to time interference from the grand engineer will push the heroes into situations that they need to fight or flee from.
The setting itself is very flexible, allowing the existence of any hero from any other setting. Magic, the force, or even a lifestream, is present, but undefinable. Force users can feel and use the force, but not the source of it. Magic users can use magic, but do not know if it is from the planet, some kind of magical well, or another source. Any abilities that require pre-existing conditions can still be used, but the reasoning for their use will have to be generic and/or vague to avoid over complicating the setting.
keep it simple stupids (:
the only thing that we will have for sure is a lack of civilization and technology, though characters from high tech settings can bring a limited amount of tech with them and it WILL work, being charged mysteriously (we'll say magnetically from the planet.) IE: droid power cores, cellphones, anything with a battery. (you can't bring star ships with you, though.)
there will be random encounters with settlements where survivors, either human or mutant, are trying to make a new life. Some will be people who are fairly good, but untrusting to weird people showing up, and some will be very bad. Leather and chains gangs, cannibals, cults, etc. It will be up to the heroes to decide how to deal with these.
there will also be many different and ugly new mutations of animals that have been exposed to too much of whatever made this world the way it is, so lots of things to kill for those who like action.
for those who prefer interaction, that is the point: grab your favorite character and bring them in.
