Questionable Questing

Thank you for being interested.

The idea is that they will pick Classes from a particular Source Book and related themes from that source book will be linked. Pick vampire option, and get all the undead material to work wtih, pick something else and get everything connected to that.

They are encouraged to think of narrative and lore feel over best numbers. Quest will be using a private system that favors cool ideas over what is best mechanically

And this is important, they don't just get a class. They can have others later maybe get classes from that source book like their spouse and kids, and they can use the monsters. Pick Frostburn, and the North now has a forest of beasts and a monsters to repel invaders and act as a resource.

Or pick cersie the demon witch, and your castle turns into a bastion of fiends from the Abyss and Nine Hells, with demonic corruption seeping out into the land, things that can be taken advantage of to give player territory a unique feel and advantages.

I'm guessing your going to want to combine a management system with a character driven story right? Not only building up personal power with magic, but building up whatever region your settled in and slowly changing it to your own ends. Show how magic is not only corrupting the main character but society around them.

Indeed. Its an idea I'll share with Jackal, the magical kingdom concept would be really fun, we want mechanics to reward and encourage depravity, give a feeling of goals without making the MC steam roll the setting as they get stronger, and let them tinker with their society.

For example, make a secret gathering of noble mothers who are lovers and wives to their sons, and have them be devoted to protecting the interests of the realm that allows that lust, or having shared bimboified woman in villliages for the commoners provide moral bonuses to soldiers who want to fight even harder for their homes

create an order of nuns that look chaste and homely on the outside, but underneath their heavy white robes that are deliberately asexual, is buttplugs, piercings, Shibari knots rubbing against their pussy. and that same order acts as an orphanage of hundreds of little boys that need guidance and love.

A mechanic I really want to play with is the player character is corrupted and mad. Their realm is depraved and vile to everyone else's senses, and so the people there are alienated and more devoted to the realm because they would be killed or imprisoned elsewhere if they leave. Players have to balance growing corruption to increase their Mythic Levels

And keep the minimum of depravity needed to keep that mythic power with avoiding detection or go to a far off area and use distance to go wild. Either way, they are going to be extreme

What you think of the quality of our starting prompt? My part is just notes for Jackal and indicated by my red font for my name

It's good, need a little touch up on some grammar and stuff. I saw a few extra space were they didn't belong, but I did like the description of hell and I liked the hints at some of the mechanic's I saw.

I really liked the idea of Catelyn Stark being the pervert one. LoL

Me and Jackalmoreau will be designing mechanics to encourage player engagement both for kingdom management and greater porn exploration and incentives and if you wanted to give your thoughts on how to build those mechanics, that wold be fun

Everyone is a pervert. Its going to be a thing that every character for their gift of magic has to commit to it with a degrading hentai action right off the bat, and have Belial and his daughter implanting them with corrupted pornographic urges and ambitions. Smut is intergal to the character development and story

I have been informed characters will need to work on being perverted, but the only way to access Mythic ranks and gifts of magic items and more is to be corrupt and corrupted, so it works out

The slow burn, burns brighter than a fast one

Based off Pathfinder Kingmaker, a concept I am interested in is treating the player Realm as a character with feats and stats, bonuses effected by the themes chosen in character creation. Iron born Lords of Madness is different from Lyane Stark gone beyond the wall to be a winter enchantress

Back from work, would you like to discuss Quest mechanics planning here or in PM? And how do you do a Quest without a lot of hard numbers for your thing?
