World-Spheres - a Community Campaign Setting (Discussion Thread)

so technically you are asking if you could do a planet(oid) with monsters? :)
Fine by me. Can't wait to see it.

I have posted a small subproject on the supersoldier race of the Hunters. I put it together rather quickly, so feel free to comment if anything is missing/incoherent. But now we have some more villains if anybody needs that.
Anyway, although the Hunters are fearsome, i'm unsure as to whether they could be made even more so. Any suggestions? Only limitation is that they have to be somewhat humanoid in size and shape.

I think they're good as-is.  Really, at the moment the setting is just filling up with dangerous places.  If it weren't for Kyuumu (and I'm not sure about Steerpike's Manor) there wouldn't be anywhere to be safe in the whole setting.

[Superfluous Crow]

hehe, true, we need some sanctuaries or peaceful places. Although they wouldn't stand much of a chance with this onslaught of hostile races.

Updated Eimos some more. Looking forward to some kaiju action :D

Just a note. If you guys create multiple planes/planets please post them in separate posts so I can link them to the front page. :)

Well, I posted the first part of Mikail's Spacers.  I'm breaking it into two parts because more or less there's the home plane they come from and the then there's the world they land on in the hub solar system.

I'd love to hear thoughts on this.

Their own world; is that our world in the future?
Our a similar parallel?
Also, E_Elf, the Green God doesn't seem to be included on the list of worlds/planes. Now, it's not exactly a world i know, but i would like if it was linked to the front page somehow nonetheless.

Trust me that was not intentional, some how it just got skipped over, sorry  :cry:

Is it too much of a cop-out to say possibly both, maybe neither, and/or your choice?

[Superfluous Crow]

Pretty open-ended answer, but no, you don't have to be any more specific :) was just wondering, that's all

[khyron1144]

I got the second half posted, the actual Planet of the Kaiju.  I hope you like it.

So how long are we allowed to keep going on about one particular creation in the main thread?

I ask because I realize now that what I've got posted so far is basically all narrative.  It might be nice to have a few cold hard facts about the Planet of the Kaiju.

Right now it's just a few ideas clunking around in my head:

1) Earth is in terms of surface area mostly water.  The Planet of the Kaiju might not be.  Right now thinking about an even fifty-fifty split between land and water.  My science background is spotty:  I can remember that about three-quarters or more of the Earth's surface area is water, mostly in the seas and oceans.  I have no idea what effect it has on Earth's meteorology and biology or what tinkering with that percentage would do.  Once I've thought it out a bit better, I might say something more definite.

2) One thing I'm running with, pretty definitely, though is this:  The Planet of the Kaiju has no salt water.  It's just one of the strange magical properties of the world.  There are fresh water oceans on the Planet of the Kaiju full of sharks, whales, dolphins, squids, octopus, and plesiosaurs.  

3) This is one that I pretty definitely wouldn't put in the main thread anyway, but I was thinking of posting the Mekton Z stats for certain characters mentioned in the narrative.  I started an NPC folder thread a while back anyway.  Anybody want to see this to see how these guys are compared to your imagination?

I think the best way to organize longer than single post worlds/planes is to Link the main overview post in the Index then in your main overview post, create your index which links the various subtopics of your world/plane.
