This isnt our world anymore.


The world has ended. Not in nuclear war. Not the seemingly inevitable result of rampant capitalism and enviromental destruction. No, something else manages to beat us there, despite our best efforts. Magic ended the world. Magic. Fucking world rending, earth-shattering, sky splitting magic. Imagine the surprise on our faces when a goddamn dragon burned Buckingham palace. When a great Kraken heaved out of the ocean, and just sank a US Navy carrier like it was a toyboat. Or when metropolises suddenly became besieged from within as the began to reanimate in some sort of zombie plague created by Necromancers of all things
.

At the time. We didnt understand it. We didn't know how to fight or deal with it. We almost wiped from the planet, from reality itself. Turns out, there was many other worlds out there. And our world, our reality, ended up crashing into another. From what others have told us, the magical things were just as confused as us. Unfortunately, the more violent and down right elements of that other reality had been the firs to react, seeing a magicless, unprepared world to plunder and savage.

Hello! Hellis or Hella here. Long time member, long time gone!

Reality Reforged is going to be a Postapocalytic game about community building, finding strength in one another and rebuilding in a world brought to ruins by the sudden, violent emergence of magic. This game centers the cast helping in the efforts to rebuild a life for themselves and others. Magic is abundant, and while some landmarks of old earth remain, a lot of it is overgrown or fundamentally altered due to the merge of the two realities. Modern technology is still a thing, to a point. Somethings, like computers you wont see much off, as the entire supplychain and global networks that allows for such creations is all but gone. But guns and other mechanical things still hang around, and have even been redesigned with magic in mind.

Its in advanced, becouse I like some depths and plan to put in a lot of effort into this and I feel the expecations of Advanced posting best serves my vision.

Alot of this will be somewhat sandboxy, with little missions for gathering resources, dealing with threats are going to popup or discover places that are relavant to the overall lore and story of the world. The city itself is gonna be its own, living, breathing charachter so to speak. It will grow, have events depending on outcome of missions and decisions from the players. And as it grows, as will the story progress and new things will be unlocked. As this is a collaborative effort, I will run tallys and check with my players as to what missions interest them, what they want to see added to the city etc. SO that we all have a stake in it!

This sounds very interesting, I've got a lot of questions if you're game. Mostly based around character creation and world state.

Character Creation
Can we be fantasy races in addition to mundane races? (because I love me some Halflings)
Can we be magic users or in possession of magical artifacts? (because I usually like tinkerers and scouts)
Are we from a certain country or faction?

World State
How long ago was this apocalypse?
(Because I'm curious if we're in a post-apocalypse in the sense of essentially a wild west civilization desert with extreme scarcity and everyone is looking to eek out a living and begin to establish themselves, or a slightly further along post-apocalypse wherein there are growing factions and civilization)

I actually ran a tabletop game of World of Darkness set in this type of setting, so I'm definitely in. Where in the world will this game be located? What are the current rules/limitations of magic? Any restrictions on character creation?

Character Creation
-Can we be fantasy races in addition to mundane races? (because I love me some Halflings)
In a sense, yes. The human race itself has been altered by the reality shift. So its less "I am a race from dnd" and more "Wtf, My ears are pointy and my eyes see real good". This game will take place, essentially a generatior or two pass the first event. So these "races" would have had children that grown up at the time of the game.

Can we be magic users or in possession of magical artifacts? (because I usually like tinkerers and scouts)
-100 percent. Whats the point of magic if you cant use it! There will be more explenation once the OOC is set up.
Are we from a certain country or faction?
There arent really any borders or countries anymore. Seeing how everythings collapsed. But you all belong to the same small society/town. That of "Lanterns Light", a safe haven that yo uwill help build and settle the ground around.

World State
How long ago was this apocalypse?
-About 40 years ago. Enough time for there to have been two generations and people having settled somewhat. The resource scarcity isnt really a problem. Its not the nuclear winter scenario. There is if possible, more resources now. Some of them new, such as things with magical properties. Its just a matter of the world being untamed and dangerous once again for humanity.

Most of the surrounding ecology is a sort of massively mutated pine and firn forest to its north with massive rolling, hills to the south. Very much a temperate, if a bit warmer, nortern biome.
