ITT: Describe Your Setting In As Few Words As Possible

Fantasy Rome during the Gothic War.

Bolt action rifles and magic in space

(OP)
>It is the 1950s but instead of tanks and Jeeps the world wars were fought with mechs and superscience. PCs are at a top secret Nevada facility at the start of the cold war

I would play the hell out of that.

Wicky-Wild Wild West, James West, desperado

>Multiverse Kitchen Sink: Saturday Morning Cartoon Edition

>The elves are Romans, the dwarves are pirates, there's giant crocodilemen, and the dragons fart magic dragon-Chaos radiation; what else do you need?

Making shit up.

Former planar hub world.

>Glam, Dirty Future-Containment Ghetto. Early 70's Greenwich Village on user-modulated Ketamine derivatives (instead of crack).

>robots live on this robots body
>more robots live on these robots body which live on the big robots body
>robots have masks, different colours
>robots fight for the masks so they can control the bigger robots in the hopes of controlling the biggest robot which may or may not be a robot creation from some sort of higher dimension robots that make more robots like the big robot.

Steam punk victorian wild west gothic horror

>A roaring 20's version of Eberron. Flappers, screwy pulp-science magi-technology, elven nazis siezing power, and over the top Sky Captain style air battles.

This is a time where the Paladin keeps his shining armor in a trunk, and his holy avenger in the back seat of his tricked out roadster. A haze of cigarette smoke instead of his holy radiance, a battered fedora and trench coat with a tommy gun at his side. Heart and soul of Galahad and Lancelot, attitude and style of Dick Tracey and Humphrey Bogart.

>Bland

Deadlands?

Fantasy JoJo

Sunshine meets Event Horizon

> Grimbright, monster infested, low magic, bronze age civilization is collapsing to monsters, famine, and mysterious sea raiders, legolas but manly

1940s Detective Jojo

I like this one.

>Turn-of-the-century crime bustin' with tech boom, spaceships, cultists and ancient aliens.

ERP with no sex because we are all shit writers.

>Vikings of America, Romans of the Ninth legion, and maybe more cool lost groups of various civs from medieval - bronze age Era get teleported to a new standerd fantasy world as the first humans

It's open ended as the actions of the players will shape the structure and views of there people and how they defeat the ancient evil that sent them there in the first place.

you don't have to be quite THAT brief...

>The Grizzled but replace each of the characters with Final Fantasy XI races.

>Envoys for Conan.

>Hired guns for Empire-era Hutts.

I honestly have no idea what i'm worldbuilding.

Imperial Russian Gothic Horror.

>Traveller, but Submarines

Rocks fall, everybody dies.

It's Hellenistic period Greece but the Ptolemaic Egyptian undead menace is about to invade

Midfuture transhumanist court politics based on Tang China and fascist Italy

I really need to read the lore of Bionicle. It sounds fucking hardcore.

Expand?

dieselpunk skyland with a massive prop-head culture that eventually go full Ace Combat that eventually go dieselpunk-tinged Star Wars; beautifully pulpy all the goddamned way

I play pure gygaxian 2nd edition ad&d, based in the world of greyhawk, with no 3rd edition+ lame bs added in.
The current iteration of D&D is atrocious, as is the d20 system.

That's just my opinion, and it's coming from an ancient old fart by 4chans standards. I'm actually glad that D&D is still being played, and it's good that actual people get together face to face to socialize.

>faggots go on a quest to destroy the government in space

Weed farmers but there are goblins close enough to raid. Murderhobo to murderstoners in one session.

How much cocaine did you take, Kirkbride?

Just sort of high fantasy with some gritty elements

>Every modern conspiracy is real, but played for laughs and also in a fantasy world.

I want this

>A hive city of epic proportions with a society so rigidly stratified that different levels are on vastly different tech levels - spears at the bottom, Clarkian "magic" tech at the top.

Long ago, the four First Kingdoms ruled over Slidgründe in a vain arms race and plotted to dominate everything. The stalemate snapped.

After a huge war (I mean it would make WWII look like a schoolyard fight, nukes being dropped every 10 seconds on cities with magical anti-nuke manashields the size of Rhode Island), years of chaos followed, as the war beasts got loose and millions fled underground. Warlords swept over the ruins using broken First Kingdom devices.

Now everything's mostly alright. In the land of Origin, a religion based on combined human potential is leading them to gradually increase industrial capacity without fossil fuels (the First Kingdoms used them all up), and absorb neighbors into their nation. In Lyr, the mostly agricultural citizens live under democracy and enjoy a wealth of freedoms.

But when the Earthlings come, bringing technology reminiscent of their past follies and companies like Unicorn Hunt hell-bent on learning the secrets of the planet, whether for curiosity or profit, adventurers and leaders across the world must choose whether to embrace or turn away from contact, while the upheaval triggers events good and disastrous across the world.

Sorry for the text wall, I'm just happy that somebody finally gives a rats ass about my baby.

>Sci-fi Fantasy
>"An ancient evil awakens"
>Gods exist and like to fuck with the world
>Metal Gear type comments on the nature of man and life
>Plenty of dark humor and 4th wall shenanigans

On a scale of "War has, changed" too "NANOMACHINES SON", how Metal Gear are we talking about?

Near utopia with pockets of evil (dragons, giants, other monsters) hiding and waiting to rise again as corruption grows.

Samurai Jack Vance

I'd say MGR is a good point of reference, yea.

I like what I've seen so far.
It seems like you hit the ideal ratio of novel and familiar.
Time for high Veeky Forums praise: I don't think your baby is so ugly that you should have thrown it down a well and drowned it.

A half-submerged forest where Neolithic societies have rapidly advanced.

skynet won, we are in mad max

non-nuclear post-apocalyptic pseudo-medieval scavenger world

Basically a campaign set in not!The Road Warrior

Traditional vanilla fantasy bullshit where the world is being threatened by Plato's Theory of Forms.

>coffee-rattled tarutarus roused awake from the sounds of Flare IIs slamming their trenches

Thank you, I appreciate every commendation or critique.

Are kingdoms being attacked by the Ideal General leading the Ideal Army of Ideal Fire-breathing Mecha Death Sharks? If so, that's awesome.

Science fantasy + 40k over the top violence and characters + ubermensch nazi experiments running wild after killing their creators + 'perfected' asshole (brace new world) human/elves inheriting the world pure blooded humans fucked up + unwanted physically weak elves over compensating with uber huge power armor + the broken remains of pure blooded humans + all tossed together with a healthy serving of: Racism, imperialism, and religious fervor validated by the very real, very dangerous presence of otherworldly powers.

Also the creator is dead and the only hope that drives the forces of 'good' onward is a lie.

Couldn't really manage it in a few words.

Epic Fantasy with a tendency towards melodramatic and larger-than-life philosophical differences

>Let's just make Dark Souls, surely the players won't notice

It's actually working, which is cool

It's really good - desu extremely good fodder for a brief campaign or a transportation-gate-disaster-episode.

The way that each race is broken up, each with its own culture and sports and champion, is totally believable within the world of pretty much any Vidya or television spinoff

Box of assorted dice for sale. Good condition, never used.

>Iron Age norse/celtic cultures featuring not!Rome and not!Arabia

>Drifting through space on a giant space colossus in its own space suit, multiple civilizations aboard in a mutualistic relationship, as it drifts from food source to food source until (the day the campaign starts) the giant has a heart attack and dies. Cue a pan-colossus breakdown of civilizations.

...What game format?

Whoa.

Everything is suffering.

>bird person gives birth to destroyer of civilisation, fucks up giants and dragons too.

>generic races rise from ashes.

>elves come to planet as ayy lmaos.

>solar falls after realising the best thing she can do to save the world is to kill everyone on it.

>present day

Generic DnD setting where the monsters are winning

Secret snake sects striving secretly sourcing slaves so Sseth survives.

Dnd 2e.
Typical slightly comedic fantasy world in the very early stages of the industrial age.
The most advanced cultures have simple guns, steam ships, and slowly changing attitudes on humanoid monsters.

>Military Science Fiction Cyberpunk in the style of Tom Clancy

>Corporations have gone full West Indies Company in the solar system in behalf of the Nations of earth and prohibited unregulated habitats

>Meanwhile people living under the government or their sponsored off-world colonies are exploited, ignored, and spied upon (think all the bad shit that the government in the west does like spying on their citizens and working for corporations cranked up to 11)
