RPG II - Forgotten Continent or The Lost Land.

Wait, what did you do with Shin-Yi? Where am I supposed to live now? You're a hobo now :D

I'm hoping for Saruman's help in adding new races and folklore - keep hoping, keep hoping... Just kidding, I'll soon post something in more detail. Magnus, maybe we should keep Shin-Yi, people like it, and there won't be any problem with the folklore... :smile12:

I've written a lot, but everyone interested in the fate of the RPG must read this.
Gentlemen, what if we make Magnus's world the world of Xeen, but only after the cataclysm?
Plot:
Magnus, who originally fled to Axeot, was wounded by Emilia Knighthaven and left the world stage for long decades. Later, he opens a portal back to Xeen and founds his own Empire. Along with him comes the Velvet-Mask-Wearer, the high lord of the founding Dark Brotherhood. No one had seen him without the mask, and only the most chosen had guessed his existence until recently. In recent years, the confrontation turned into a low-intensity war between the Empire and the DB, but in 377 AC (after the cataclysm), Emperor Magnus is stabbed in the square by one of the Dark Brotherhood assassins. As a result of the clash, several hundred assassins, dozens of bodyguards and ministers, and the emperor himself perish. Shortly after, detachments directed by regent Leonard Irongriffin attack Night Fang, the capital of the Dark Brotherhood in the lands of Inferno, and slaughter the entire ruling elite. The Velvet-Mask-Wearer could not be found, as expected... After the Massacre of the Lords, as these events were later called, both the Empire and the Dark Brotherhood fall to pieces. They have no central leaders, no central authority, and basically no one to fight, as the enemy already has plenty of problems... People remember their loyalty to the Celestial Light and the Inquisition, elves remember old grudges against humans since the Wood Wars. Demons remember their thirst for destruction, dark elves their dislike for light elves and demons. Mages led by the Dragon Lord, who gained immortality in an inexplicable way after the Cataclysm, again turn their lands, once desert and lifeless, into snowy cliffs. The states of the witches of the southern marshes—former Tatalia, the Barbarian Wastelands, and the lands of the elemental lords of Conflix—gradually gain strength. Rumors spread across the world that Emperor Magnus did not die but has gone into hiding again, that he moved to another world and is waiting for the moment to return. In the far northern land, a passage to another world is found, almost completely filled with water. After the war of the Purifying Union, a state of vampires and werewolves is formed—the Order of the Black Hand. Far to the east, hordes of nomads gather. Merchants speak of new continents with unexplored lands: Shin-Yi, the Land of Heaven-and-Sun. The Velvet-Mask-Wearer weaves intrigues. A new dawn of a new continent begins.
Goals:
A new field is introduced for every character: citizenship; every country has its own goals, from a straightforward Elgariol-demonic war to multi-step intrigues within the Order. By resolving a global-scale problem, the hero, the country, and in some cases other heroes of that country receive a large bonus. For example, if Elgariol brings Inferno under its control, the territory where Elgariol heroes can be present unpunished increases, as does the number of taverns, shops, settlements, etc., and crime decreases (the territory is larger, criminals relocate to new places where there are no clear Elgariol laws yet). For the Infernalists, it's the opposite. However, guerrilla warfare may break out in the new territories, greedy feudals will fight over the spoils, and it may turn out that it's unclear what was better.
Global goal:
The global goal is to find out who the Velvet-Mask-Wearer is. As the political situation changes, it will become clear who this is. As soon as his identity is established and his plan is ruined (or ends in triumph), RPG2 will conclude.
Magnus:
Magnus can, as he wishes, either go "off-screen from the RPG," or lead Bracada, or play the incognito emperor, wandering through cities and villages; in this case, he is one of the key figures of the intrigue.
The Velvet-Mask-Wearer:
I have three figures in mind for the role of the Velvet-Mask-Wearer. If everyone likes my concept, Magnus and I will determine the specific one via PM. In those moments when the Velvet-Mask-Wearer appears in the RPG, I will roleplay him.

Also, I think we need to make a world map so that cities don't just appear out of thin air. Or at least strictly define the location of major cities and dungeons.
And the logical conclusion from this—Magnus, do you take me into the team? To the position of conceptual GM for global quests and the development of folklore for the races.

I completely forgot! Mulnhorad can also be inserted. A land of river and sand in the east of the new continent. General style - Ancient Egypt.
