Questionable Questing

She starts accruing more personal power. Starts taking advantage of her future knowledge to invent a few things and invest in a few areas. While she's never been to earth she did love studying it's history. Slowly gaining more power and those kids she first accepted in, grow up and worship her, she puts to work. Managing it. The combination of fanatically loyalty and determined workers push it to new heights.

Try to find me Jocasta resort captions or art. Curious if anything pops up

And with this newly found wealth and power, she goes to politics. Pushing for more aid and infrastructure projects. Lots of hospitals, schools, and railways. Unknowingly centralizing the Empire even faster than our timeline, and her charity work also helped settle a lot of bloody disputes and issues. She also promotes more world centric politicians into power. All good actions unknowingly serve the empire.

Are you going for urban fantasy alt history with this? It is what I suggest. Magicans and other things for charlie to deal with, like a gang of werewolves
Andy333

Until pretty soon, her face and name is as popular as queen Victoria. With that point being where the story starts. But onto the part you're probably interested in. lol. Charlie loves babies. She absolutely loves them more than anything. In her mind any second she's not pregnant is time wasted. By the time the story starts. I'm planning on her having potentially up to 60 or 70 kids.
Andy333
Andy333
But yeah's, that my big debate I'm having. How magical should I make it? And what other franchises am I willing to add? Marvel? Vampire Masquerade? Still debating. But back to the kids, while she loves having them, she loves spoiling them more. And despite how much she loves them, her constant attention along with how all her kids are immortal like she is, has basically left them as codependent as she is.

I'd say World of Darkness like but without the reality warping mages and make it your own. Don't do fanfiction, make something from you
Andy333
Andy333
That's the idea. lol. She has strict rules about not marrying anyone below a certain age, as well as everyone has to date her for at least a year or two to see if this is what they really want. But almost all her children are either married to her or are occasional fuck buddies. With only a couple dozen that stays friends and maybe one or two that hates her guts.
Andy333
Andy333
With the one that does hate her being in this unfortunate circumstance, where he's smart enough to know that his relationship with his mom is unhealthy and a little controlling. But he's insecure enough that he doesn't have the will to say fuck I'm happy with her. Or cut her off completely and find out who he is without her power.

So instead he seethes and plays mind games with her. Basically angling himself to take over the company, so he can keep the money and power as well as eventually fulfill his lifetime fantasy of his mom being his personal slave and secretary. All the while Charlie watches all this, and plays along with equal parts sadness and humor, effortlessly taking down any serious moves on his part.

What supernatural elements in general would you like to add to this alt history
Andy333
Andy333
Stuff like Vampires and Werewolves obviously. Couple demons and cults, since they will all be very interested in Charlie. Not trying to kill her, but corrupt her into the Antichrist role she was destined to play. Acting as some interesting mind games as on the surface they are perfectly loyal to Charlie, but they are also constantly pushing her to expand her empire and make some morally questionable choices.
Andy333
Andy333
Maybe some lovecraft stuff too. Not any squids or interdimensional entities. But cursed artifacts that twist people into horrible abominations, a few mad scientist reviving corpses and going full Skaven with their experiments. That kind of stuff would be perfect. Basically I'm going for Hearts of Darkness like you suggested, except a little bit lower power level.
Andy333
Andy333
Charlie will always be the top of the food chain, and nobody in the supernatural world disputes that. Nobody will be ending the words or blowing up cities. Instead it'll all be politics and spy games. With all the various supernatural entries having their own goals and trying to push Charlie into helping them.

Magic is all heaven or hell?
Andy333
Andy333
I'm leaning towards the idea that magic comes from the earth in like a natural process, with various Keylines formed from the way the stars/planets align. But since earth was created by heaven and is also influenced by hell, it's a fair claim to say that magic does come from them and angels and demons are obviously a lot stronger magically than any human could possibly be.
Andy333
Andy333
Or in other words, you don't need heaven or hell to do magic if you have the proper materials, experience, and knowledge. But it definitely makes it a lot easier, especially when you start getting into the higher levels of magic, if you have some extra help. Which speaking of help. I'm sorry. I was supposed to help you with Ygritte.

No big. Focus on this as I like it. Charlie have Vaggie with her too?
