Rhand and its sister islands (Aslaan, Rhavuul, Orlan, and Vaal) are located in a tight group halfway between Hawaii and Midway island. Their combined area is a little more than that of New Zealand or about half the size of Texas. They were discovered in 2015 by satellite imagery. However, the islands had been claimed as the sovereign territory of Rhand. They claimed to be a constitutional monarchy, with a Lady Chryslaen Morley as the Queen Regent. The rightful heir was a young man of 15 man named Jonathan Rhand.
They set their territorial waters and airspace boundary at 12 miles outside of the polygon formed by the exterior edges of the islands. Noone knows how they went undetected for so long. Conspiracy theorists use explanations like Themyscira, Lost Atlantis, and Mu.
They have politely kept their borders closed until recently, with the coming of age of Jonathan and his ascension to the throne. (He turns 21 on Sep 25, 2021.) The islands have begun to open its port to very limited tourism of a scale not unlike that of Fantasy Island. That is, tourism is permitted on a case by case basis. The cost of a fantasy is subjective, typically only for the very wealthy. But Rhand has gone so far as to sell lottery tickets in various countries with stern warning that cheating will be punished harshly. Some of these tickets find their way to deserving recipients.
A new group of tourists arrive in a handful of small seaplanes about once a month. In short they grant a few fantasies a month. This number rises and falls depending on complexity. It is rumored that some guests have vanished never to be seen again. Of course, most suggest that they became permanent residents. Whether that is good or bad is anyone’s guess.
Character
I will be running Jonathan, his Privy Council (5 members), plus a few members of staff and security, and some of the family members of the Council. I will also have to run most of the native islanders.
You will run a female guest as a main character, plus any related guests. You will need a CS. The CS should include a pic, general characteristics, background as needed, and your fantasy (reason for coming to the island) - and how you got your fantasy granted.
Plot
Well, the initial plot is pretty simple. While this place is described like Fantasy Island, I can assure you it is not that at all. However, the laws of reality will get bent. You might even think the place magical. Who knows, you might be right. Your character may be on the run from some dark past. She may bring that dark past with her. You could even arrive as not the one getting their fantasy fulfilled, but the monster that brought you. Life isn’t always fair. If you can think of a way to do it, you could even stow away.
