Kilin@Ryuzaki I have no problems with adding more islands with more races. I was thinking that while the war between humans and elves is an overbearing threat. Provinces within the empire are still home to many other races who struggle to take sides or avoid the grander conflict. Like one desert province, has 12 city states run by vampire houses. They allow disputes between themselves be decided by pitting lesser races against each other in gladiator fights. Overall, the province is neutral but is still considered part of the greater empire.

Favorite plane: Mirrodin
Favorite set: Scars of Mirrodin
Favorite mechanic: Exalted
Favorite card: Sublime Archangel. Just because everything needs to be exalted sometimes.

What formats do you play?: Modern, draft, cube, and Commander. Used to play standard.
Favorite format: Modern
What is your least favorite thing about Magic?: Netdeckers
How much experience do you have with creating custom cards?: I have a respectable amount of experience. Nothing official.
Design a custom mechanic: Hoarder- When this creature enters the battlefield, exile the top card of your library face down. When this creature dies, put the card exiled by this creature into your hand.
Design a creature:
Design an instant, sorcery, artifact, or enchantment:
Design a non-basic land:
Design a planeswalker:
Do you have any ideas for a plot/setting?: I have many ideas. I can envision a a world at war or at least its main continent. The Empire tears itself apart because one human has claimed himself the emperor and tries to destroy the republic that has lead the empire for the last thousand years. Humans fight elves in a civil war that is destroying countless lives. Little does any one know this war was planned and plotted by a master of machines, who wants to see his automatons to take their rightful rule over all the living. The Civil war is a distraction and weakens any unified opposition to his armies.

@Orlan This rp is set after the events in fallout 4, though that would have little to no impact on this region. Project purity did get activated like in fallout 3 by brotherhood hands. I could imagine the DC BoS sending some scouts south but their main focus continues to be the commonwealth. As far as the West coast, Legion lost the second battle of Hoover dam during the events of New Vegas and is trying to invade the NCR while holding onto its vast territories after the death of Ceaser.
@POOHEAD189A companion is not out of the question. If you want one, feel free. And that goes for anyone actually. If you want a companion and can do it justice than you can have one. Also, a mutated alligator named Sebastion could easily be doglike enough to qualify.

@ProPro To answer your question, It is a more narrative role rather than a mechanical one. I am unsure whether to include perks and traits because they are really just personality quirks. If people want to declare their perks and traits i will allow it.

War... War never changes...
But people do... based on the roads one travels...
But there are some roads in life...ONE MUST NEVER TRAVEL!!!
-----
Come travelers, Take a seat around the fire. Let its fire scare away the darkness of this moonless night. Listen to a tall tale of an old wander. I come from a place far from here. Far to the South and far to the east. From a place surrounded by Ocean on three sides tucked underneath the main of the continent. Back in the old days, Before the war, When the good old US of A still stood proudly, the Place was known collectively as the State of Florida. I cannot say I ever know why it was called that. You see I am a survivor of those nightmare lands. Among the first to leave vault 122, first to stumble on vault 38. That number still haunts my dreams. Thirty Eight. Inside the ruins of Vault 38, we found a miracle of science. The fabled G.E.C.K. OH!? Never heard of a G.E.C.K.? It stands for the Garden of Eden Creation Kit. It was a world changing device. Able to create rainforests out of deserts. Restore the world as it was before the war, before the bomb. It was the pinnacle of Human technological prowess. Well, at least of anything before the Great War. Possible, after too. Doubt the Enclave could build one if they wanted to. Anyways, Before I get sidetracked, The G.E.C.K. is not what it is advertised to be. Vault City got lucky. Project Purity got Lucky. But you must believe me, Humans were exiled from Eden. We were never supposed to go there again. When we activated the device, it was not Eden, but Pandora's Box. Florida returned to lush green but it was wrong. Monsters, demons, and all kinds of horrors sprung forth. Never go to Florida. This wasteland seems peaceful in comparison... but, if you do, destroy the G.E.C.K!
----------------------
Ok, I kinda got carried away with the theatrics. A Garden of Eden Creation Kit has been activated in Florida. An Irradiated G.E.C.K. actually. Any Fallout fans should imagine what terrible things an irradiated piece of terraforming equipment would be like. Nothing good came from radiation. Well, maybe ghouls, if you are into that. We will be going to destroy the G.E.C.K. and stop the spread of this post apocalyptic terror that is the Everglades. You can be from any faction (or not) the east or West Coast. If you are from the West Coast, you need to be able to justify you crossing the entire US to get to Florida.
Any Questions? Anyone interested?

Anyways, as far as the kind of monsters given life here are but a few. Alligators grow as large as Cars. Snakes grow aware from 15 to thirty feet long. This jungle land has a unique breed of Giant ants. Primarily black in color, its workers grow to be the size of a dog. Warriors can get to stand six feet while on all 6 legs. Workers will spray a flammable tar-like substance as a defense mechanism before fleeing. Warriors are able to breath fire which can ignite the tar. Dragonflies are common in the jungles, though they now are as large as eagles. Beetles now grow up to the size of small house cats.
Now, not all threats are unique to the Post war everglades. Deathclaws take on a sickly shade of green as they stalk prey through the trees. Radroaches of course exist. Yuoi Gui have made their nests within the safety of the greenery. Large cats and dogs also roam here. A variety of Green Geckos exist here as well. They hunt in packs and can if in large enough numbers be bold enough to challenge a deathclaw. Supermutants have found a natural home here. Their large size makes survival easier. They have socially devolved into stick wielding savages mostly. They hunt and gather to support a tribal lifestyle. They are less threatening to humans than other areas because humans have too little meat compared to other jungle critters.
Now, if radiation and animal life was not enough, you should take a look at the plants. Many of the fruit bearing plants do not like their delicious fruits being stolen. When a fruit is plucked, the plant will release a poisonous mist to kill the would be plunderer. Some plants do eat meat. There are several Venus fly trap like plants that lure animals inside. Other plants stay still until movement awakes them and they grab with veins to slowly devour their prey. Not all plants are stationary. Some get up and hunt like animals. These walking trees are called Ents.
Another plant type to be avoided is a parasite that infects those who do not have proper access to medicine. It spores buries itself under the skin and begins to grow. First symptoms is skin irritation followed by Flowers coming out of the skin. The plant then slowly takes over the host and eventually turnes the host into something akin to the spore carriers out of Vault 22 in Nevada. When the host corpse eventually dies, the plant takes roots wherever it falls.

Name:
Alias: (Like the lone wanderer, Courier 6, Sole Survivor, Vault dweller. Every hero is know as something)
Age: (Be reasonable for your race. Ghouls could have existed since before the war while Synths are new to the environment.)
Gender:
Race: (Primarily human, but i will allow Ghoul, Supermutant, or Synth to be playable)
Primary Skills*: (Pick three from the games.)
SPECIAL*: (You start of with 1 point in each of the special stats. You then have 33 aditional points to distribute among the seven different stats. You may not have more than 10 points in any one stat.)
Gear/inventory: (At most three weapons based on their weight. If you carry a fat man, it is likely to carry a second large weapon unless you are a super mutant.)
History: (Why did you come to FLorida?)
-----
*These have more of a roleplay use than actually gameplay mechanics. Just because you have chosen to use to specialist in energy weapons it does not forbid you from picking up an ax and hitting your enemy with it. But if your strength is low, do not be so naive to think that you can take on a supermutant in a arm wrestling contest.

An important question to ask when designing a set is what world is it set on? I assume it will be a custom world which gives a lot to the world planning. What do we what as the man races on the world? Humans, elves, merfolk, vampires, giants, minatours, treefolk, angels, ect, ect? How do we want to split up the mana pie? All worlds have all 5 colors of magic unless there some seriously wrong. Will we have a nations aligned with 2 maybe 3 colors? Once we have a idea of what kind of fantasy setting we have, it would be easier to create a story and easier to lay card mechanics with the lore.
@Ammokkx I thank you for pointing out the error in my math. I was assuming everyone was had 1 in every stat then had points to add to that. But i did not explicitly said that so it did not exist. I will correct it when i set up the OOC.
Anyways, I am going to get started on the OOC.

@ProPro As far as Bethesda Studio goes Fallout tactics is considered Non-cannon. Same with Fallout Brotherhood of Steel. I am willing to accept their existence because there is some mention of a disowned Faction of the BoS in the midwest in Fallout 3 and NV. As far as those Hairy Deathclaws in the midwest, I do not like them being sentient. I liked the idea that the only intelligent deathclaw are those being controlled by people or were eradicated by the Enclave during the events of Fallout 2. Basically, I would prefer you didn't play a hiding deathclaw. Though a intellectual fighting his bestial urges in a savage land would be interesting.
@Marshall That sounds perfectly fine with me.
@Marshall You must pardon me, but i am not exactly sure what a Paladin Lord is. I am aware that one of the branches of the BoS is Paladin. Please, enlighten me. If it is reasonable I am sure I would accept it. I have no aversion to power armor, but it may be a hindrance in the jungle.
