Village in the Woods

No name yet

Possible names: Jade Hollows. Rosewood forest. Luna Marsh. keep them all and have three little towns in the woods, but one of them is the biggest and like the center of things. it would be like granstville, arnoldsburg and spencer. one is the main area with the most services/people and nikiah's family running things, and the others are just smaller little clusters of houses not far away but those people do their main shopping in the place where nikiah is.
Homes inside hollow trees, tree houses, swinging bridges, everything wooden, living among the trees, huge tall trees, winding forest paths, etc

Threats and enemies:
Monsters who live/hide in the forest, vampires, thieves and ruffians, poisonous/dangerous plants, enchanted areas of the forest that have spells on them that make you get lost or sleepy, etc

Characters:
Val/Nitro/Ajal
Nikiah (her family is chief of the main village?) yes I love this idea.
Demyx (siren)


************************************



Village in the Mountains

No name yet

Gondor-style fantasy city built into the rocks of the mountainside, harbor town with ships, getting raided by pirates and sea monsters and so on and have to defend themselves from the open ocean so they have warriors to protect themselves

Threats and enemies:
Sea monsters, pirates, sirens

Characters:
Sephiroth (harpy)
Other FF7's
-good place for strong fighter characters
-good place for characters with wings because of the mountain terrain

Riza for sure. she will be a harpie type. Possible other charries as well.

************************************



Village on the Beach

No name yet

Based on KH1, on the beach on the inside of the ring of land, so when you look out to the water you can see the city of Atlantis out in the distance, safe place, merpeople live there in the sea and you can see them sometimes, little wooden shacks, palm trees, sand, etc. also some elements of the Tropical Atoll from Allods Online that was used in the last RP, with the smaller little "mini islands" (forget about tides this time, it was too troublesome), and could have the little island from KH1 that you paddle over to on a rowboat and is just a very small tiny little island just off-shore, other small islands, etc

Threats and enemies:
Generally none, it is a safe place, the reason for being safe could be that strong fighters patrol the area and protect it and keep it safe, as opposed to the other areas where you are just kind of on your own, this area has fighters keeping the monsters/vagabonds out, and since it is a safe place, they could distrust strangers and not be very friendly to new comers

Characters:
Sora
Riku
Namine (maybe?)
Riku Replica (maybe?)
-good place for strong fighter characters



************************************



City of Atlantis

Built on the sea, around them is a ring of land, beyond that is open ocean all around, completely isolated, magical advanced technology but still ancient setting, lots of water within the city, fountains, rivers, bridges, yards and bushes and trees around the buildings, mostly made of white stone, paved streets, etc

Characters:
Ruled by Dartz
His queen is Iona
His daughter is Kriss
His father/the former king is Ironheart
His pet wolf is named Sky
Knights of Atlantis (Timaeus, Hermos, Critias)
Kaiba (centaur)
Mokuba (centaur)



************************************



Underwater City of Atlantica

Underwater, below Atlantis, city of the merpeople

Can be ruled by King Triton if we have no other water-based characters that we want to have in charge



We need a place for the centaurs, and I'm struggling to figure out if i should have clover be in the beach village, or Atlantis itself. Not sure which one is more beneficial here.
There is probably forest and mountains and open plains and beaches all over the whole island/place, and I figured the territories may overlap a bit, like the forests and plains are at the foot of the mountains, and there is an area that is like the highest up the centaurs go before the mountains are just too hard to navigate and it overlays the lowest area the harpies ever come down cuz they prefer to stay up in the mountains, etc... I expect centaurs probably prefer the wide open grasslands, the areas where farms grow their corn/wheat/stuff like that, so they can run and munch grass, etc. and they probably also meander through the woods as well, and there could be like those people who are half-deer, and they can hide in the woods but also come into the grasslands to graze, etc etc. probably the most common occupation for centaurs would be farming, just like how in real life horses live on farms anyway xD but I figured some also just roam free and don't work, they just do their own thing, and are considered "wild horses", they don't bother with money and interacting with towns and stuff, and civilized folks consider them vagabonds or whatever, think of them as lazy wild party-goers who never work, etc lol

[Riku Redeemed]

Some things to ponder, some characters have similar time frames for when important events in their pasts happened



Thief King Bakura - lost his entire family 15 years ago in his original story, saw it all happen as a little kid
Jr - also had a traumatic event 15 years ago when HE was a little kid, and his twin brother went nuts and his other brother was seriously injured and chaos/Canaan rescued them that day, he's lived a new life ever since but his past still haunts him



KH - it's been 10 years since the Nobodies in the Organization firs lost their hearts (this wouldn't matter for the RP since we're ditching their backstory, but during that time 10 years ago is when Zexion lived with Vexen as a cute little orphan thing so we could say he lost his parents about 10 years ago?), and 10 years ago is when Sora/Riku were little kids playing with wooden swords on the beach, and if we say Namine's fake memories are the real past and get rid of Kairi then it's been 10 years since she disappeared from their islands



Zack/Cloud - at the point where they escape the shinra mansion where they were held as experiment subjects, it's been 5 years now since Sephiroth went loony and burned down Cloud's hometown
Kaiba/Mokuba - in their story, it's been 5 years since they were put in the orphanage where they were adopted by their evil stepfather
Pegasus - at some point not specified, but likely about 5 years ago, his wife passed away and that was his motivation to become a villain (he's trying to bring her back to life, so if Val cures her 5 years ago and she doesn't die, he doesn't need to become a bad guy)






I wondered if we could like combine things, like say on the "15 years ago..." part, it could have been the day the volcano erupted and all the magical stones came raining down that changed everything. Bakura's family could have lived on the volcano and were wiped out when it blew up, and the evil stones that came out could be what made him evil/nuts, and that could also be the event that messed up Jr.'s life

And we could cross over and say that Kaiba/Mokuba ended up in the orphanage 5 years ago because their parents were killed by Sephiroth that day when it was 5 years ago in the past for Cloud



Do any of your characters have any past events that happen to be 5 years, 10 years, or 15 years? like we could combine everyone so they are connected because it was the same event that changed all their lives back then, etc. we could also toy around with the time lines, like if you change the character's ages and make Kaiba and Cloud a little older and Jr. a little younger, you can say everything for everybody all happened 10 years back, and they could all be connected by the same single event. I wondered if yours had past events that could tie in, like the day Ed's mom died or when his dad left them, or the day Iris got sick, or something something etc or if you wanted to keep Mustang's tragic backstory where he killed Winry's/replacement character taking her place's family and never got over it, etc etc etc
