The Unified Fantasy Setting, Development Diaries

Have you ever felt some sort of dissapointment at the notion that your character's actions are irrelevant after a particular roleplaying experience, because when it is done then it was all for naught?

What if it was different?

Maybe it takes place in another part of the world or it explores different themes... but you know that your characters and the actions taken by them before actually happened in the same world, and maybe those actions (if great enough) are bound to have had a lasting effect upon the world!

That is the intention with this latest project. It's a unified fantasy setting, which means that you will be able to experience all roleplaying experience through the same world from now on!

I am further expanding some ideas from Crimson Hearts into the unified fantasy setting. While dropping the ability system that was too specific, it is being replaced it with a much more free and open system that still allows for extensive specialization - the summoning system, for example, will now involve golems, and be just one set of abilities amongst many more.


Now a bit of in-universe history, and a base map.

Modern History of Balgrantos




The map is currently empty, but will be filled soon enough. It's an archipelago that is supposed to be similar in size to Western Europe.

We do too much fantasy. I'd rather either keep it the way it was before or just go ahead and do a mech RP or something. ToS is already a generic fantasy and it won't be ending any time soon.

Oh, it will take a couple of months before it's finished.

Yeah but it's still the same old same old fantasy.

Not really, the technology is 1700s, there are airships, muskets, etc. etc.

It's hardly different from the Final Fantasy games, which are, of course, still fantasy. And with this "unified" crap, it's going to be a big jumble of stuff that will be hard for players to keep track of, like all the simultaneous events were in Calatia's Throne.

Fantasy is what a lot of us do best, and I would gladly RP in this. Though many aspects of this have been done before, yes in final fantasy, it is presented in a way which I believe will be quite enjoyable. You have my support.
