The world is in constant state of peril. There are always those who wish to rule it, destroy it or simply wipe away their enemies out of the pages of history.
That is why the world needs heroes.
This is why you are going to give them a place to gather. A place where they can fight for the right cause and maybe earn some money from it. A place where they can grow from simple nobodies into legendary warriors.
They are your heroes, and under your guidance, they will save the world... or at least the place you call home.
Heroes. These individuals are people who go and become legends in their own right for their achievements in life.
They can be a guild of adventurers who travel across the world and discover new things or fight monsters of these unexplored regions. They can be mercenaries always on the move, hired by anyone to fight anything for any cause if the price is right. They can be a private section of a country's army.
But the one thing that is common to all of these groups is that their names are written by their achievements, and that there is someone who helped them along the way.
You are the one who will raise the next generation of legends of your world.
Every world has its heroes, but which world do you hail from? Which is the world that you will fight within? Which is the one which you will protect from the threats of the unknown, the monsters that threaten your home? (Pick Your Setting):
[ ] The World of Haunderheis: Advancement is a marvelous thing. Once the humans were mere cavemen that ran away from the magical beasts that roamed across the land, but now they are the rulers of the planet. Now longer do they carry sticks and spears made of stone, but they carry blades of steel and rifles filled with gunpowder. Now longer do they travel on foot, for the usage of coal and rails gave them the country-sprawling trains. No longer do they fear the animals that can use magic, for they can now harness said magical power through the invention of the Wesen Orb to enhance their weapons.
However, now that humanity are no longer united under the banner of survival, they had split into many, many nations that are constantly vying for power over one another, using different ideologies to claim superiority and territory over other nations.
These wars for expansion are pushing back the monsters of old further and further while also pushing humanity to its limits. There is always a threat that the monsters will grow in strength if ignored completely or constantly hunted, or that one human nation will grow strong enough to unite everyone under it.

Hello everyone. I wanted to try another go at the RPG quest genre, and even though my equations and systems for everything are not perfect or maybe not the best in general, I still wanted to have fun with this idea that I had in mind and with all these settings ideas that and all the fun that we can have within them.
So enjoy this new, probably short-lived quest that I came up with.
P.S. When I came up with the setting ideas, the aesthetic is supposed to be anime/manga. So view it all through the glasses of an anime with that kind of aesthetic to it. On another note, Voting will be open in another 30 minutes!
[X] The World of Sol Lucence: A world with both bright light and dark shadows. Divine spirits, demonic devils, swords and magic. This world is one filled with conflict and alliances between different races across the world. This is a world filled with heroes and myths, and there are always those who want to emulate them and create their own myths that will be told in the books of history or around the campfire.

I just want to see a Warrior Quest. I have yet to see or participate in one. Pls.
Not requesting you to change your vote and you are correct in your saying. I was just afraid that your vote will not be counted after I opened the voting process eventually, since I have no idea how the algorithm of it works.
But anyway, I hope to see many more votes for the setting, because it could be a very fun thing to discuss. Here are the basic summaries for the settings:
Haunderheis: Low-Fantasy world with some elements inspired by FMA (not the Alchemist class. That's a whole different bag of tricks that could be fun to play. This is not an FMA setting).
Sol Lucence: Regular High-Fantasy world.
Black Sky: Dark-Fantasy world.
Terra-06: Sci-fi setting.
Each one sounds like a fun one and it is basically up to the preference of each quest member. So if anyone wishes to discuss (or try to convince others to vote for your choice), feel free to do so.
