The Ultimate Role-Players Brainstorm!!

Here I want to discuss different ideas and games possible on a
role-playing map. This thread is not for the ones of the light
RP nature. We want to develop unique ideas, sometimes simple,
sometimes complex. I am also open to redefining the most
commonly played games and maps other servers offer. Lets see the
ideas flowing and share an discuss the most appealing ones to
you.
Just to get things started I will list off some of the ideas
floating around now.
- Asteroids! Explorations. Astro-miners live out the daily grind
in a life above Neptune. Can you rise in the ranks of the
company and one day become CEO. Asteroids! offers space travel
via portals where players discover what lies beneath their quest
for diamonds.
- The 5 Guilds of the high seas. Colonists arrive in a world
dominated by exploitation and exploration. A new land is found
far away from civilized life. Beware, for some have gone off on
their own and have become thieves and pirates. Pvp events will
feature ship to ship battle!!
- The Solstice of Midnight. The story of the old empire gone
into disrepair. Once the rulers of Anduria, the empire fades
into darkness as the rise of undead plague the lands. A massive
army that is reminiscent of the glory days is assembled to fight
this plague. Can the kingdom of Sonnia rise once again? Will
they restore the light into darkness? This map will be made as a
multiplayer adventure map. Using events and carefully crafted
dungeons to lead the players into the dark corners of their
lands.
- Iron Horse. Is the story of a new time of wondrous machinery
and exploration. The barons of industry have opened up a new
land to the empire. The resources are plenty and the lands are
vast. The only problem it is already inhabited. The people of
the old ways claim these lands to be sacred. Can the old ways
survive the charge of the Iron Horse?
- Element Rising. Tribes following Several different gods are
led into a new existence in a strange land. They follow their
gods in the pursuit of enlightenment and build great monuments
into the heavens. What tribe will create the most massive
structure?
- The Great Rift. A huge rift in the earth over 150 meters high
is the center of a thriving forest full of life. The local
tribes revolve around an annual race into the rift. Who will
bring the shaman the egg of an enderdragon and bring his tribe
honor and respect of the people.

I quite like the 'Iron Horse', 'Solstice of Midnight' and
'Element Rising' idea. You could even combine those.
One faction or tribe chooses technology over all else ( Iron
Horse ), another one chooses nature, the elements ( Element
Rising )and the last one is perhaps a magical, religious or even
'midnight' faction ( Solstice of Midnight ).
Also, hi :D

Hmm we could possibly combine Iron Horse,Asteroids, and 5
Guilds. Different companies vying for claims on a planet rich of
natural resources. The locals and the other companies serve as
obstacles to each guild. However this seems to remind me a bit
too much of Dune. (

Whereas the companies
are the equivalent of the Harkonnens and the Atreides and the
locals are the Arrakeen.

I loved Dune. I really enjoy the idea of a colonial theme
though, seeing that not many RP's are set during that time. They
always seem to hover about medieval or future time periods. I
think a colonial theme would have a bunch of new ideas to work
with. Not to mention there were still vast empires with
imperialistic polices back then so it could possibly keep the
same Kingdomey feel of medieval RPs. Ill think more about this
and present it later.

Sounds good, lets mix up imperialism, and the age of exploration
((spoiler alert)) PoK is now IoK islands of Kalagdor. And they
are making the same game we would be... -derp-

Ok, i thought of another idea. It still has the colonial era but
there's a slight twist.
Setting/plot: Its is the mid 1700s.Humanity's greed has consumed
all natural resources that lie upon the surface of the world.
The lakes and rivers have gone dry,the forests and jungles are
now barren grasslands. Wood and water are now more precious than
gold. There was nowhere for humans to go but down. The surface
cities are now ghost towns that were picked clean of everything
that can be salvaged for wood. The new countries have built
extensive tunnel networks and underground cities to avoid the
rain which has become so toxic due to the massive amount of
pollution. In these underground cities, the kingdoms have built
small underground groves with the few remaining saplings left.
The water supply is maintained only by finding underground
springs. The age of exploration has filled in the corners of the
map but none dare to risk the surface world's perils.

I can't think of any good ideas right now, although I would be
willing to help with the build. Hit me up.
