Keeping track of campaign settings

New Ideas For Campaigns

Last night, as I was drifting off, I came up with a great idea for my next campaign but it has been lost since I didn’t write it down and assured myself I could remember in the morning.  This wasn’t the case.  I’m not interesting in making this same mistake again, so from now on this is where inspired ideas will go pending review and development.

It seems to me that the idea had something to do with my old campaign, which I have resurrected to some extent in a new and improved form (or that is at any rate the idea), and I will try to remember what it was.

Campaigns for consideration:

-Shadowrun (with slightly altered timeline)

-WoD

-FR/Faerun

-Mystara

-Archon*

*Archon is my own campaign world which dates back to the mid-90s and was first inaugurated in the fall of 1996 after my time spent that summer on Realms (which is apparently still around despite near-0 activity).  It was also connected to a wider sphere of worlds.  It remains on my agenda to develop this a bit more.  It’s not the worst place for a starting point, since it has something of a foundation to build on.

-The new and unnamed campaign world which was inspired by George RR Martin’s works (sort of), and which I conceived first in the summer of 2013 during my trip to Queensland, Australia.  The “sort of” refers more to a general renewed interest in an intrigue/politics based setting than any direct inspiration.  In addition to GRRM’s focus on political movements, I was also inspired by his innovative approach to world-building.  But the work in its entirety is still my own.

-Others (there are no shortage of these but I can expand on this later)
