Relationships: Chloe & Bobby, Chloe/Bobby (as agents only), Raz/Bobby (or platonic), Chloe/Lili (or platonic), Chops/Lili (or platonic), or any platonic interpretations of the listed characters.

Classes in Whispering Rock: i think this is really underutilized idea! we all only single classes with oleander, sasha, and milla, so i'd love for a piece featuring bobby, chloe, and other campers experiencing their regular classes or new ones.

Whispering Rock Campers as Motherlobe Interns: same general ideas as above! who would be their mentors? what would hollis teach them? what kind of missions would they go on?

Whispering Rock Campers as Psychonauts Agents: same premise as above, just now as actual agents! whether they're junior or regular agents as up to you. what departments would they work on? what kind of missions would they undergo?

Post-GouSotsu: what are satoko and rika's lives like now? how is rika at st. lucia without satoko, and are her days as bland as satoko promised? how is satoko faring in a seemingly fine hinamizawa?

Satoko and Rika's time in St. Lucia: would love to see more their tension and the rift, such as satoko's time studying and being separated from rika, or rika turning a blind eye to satoko's issues as she has done.

Satoko Houjou's Time Loops: or i would love to see more of satoko looping! how does she come to the conclusions that she does in another loop? or are there any missing scenes that could be shown in loops shown in canon?

Relationships: Bernkastel/Lambdadelta, Erika/Ange, Bernkastel & Erika, Bernkastel & Ange, Lambdadelta & Ange

Abandoned Game Boards: what happens when bernkastel or lambdadelta leave the board? or what are their logic errors like if one player leaves them to suffer fixing it? maybe bern could abandon erika and toss her in to fix it on behalf of her master?

Life as a Piece in a Witch's Game: would love to see something ange-centered, how she's existing in a strange way as both a human and witch in different periods of time. her plane of existence is odd, after all! or what if ange accepted lambdadelta's proposal to swap sides and become her piece?

Life as a Voyager Witch/The Sea of Fragments: what do bernkastel and lambdadelta do as they search for new fragments? do they insert themselves at random? or do they promise pieces their aid to win the tide in a game they find interesting?

Relationships: Mileena/Tanya, Kitana/Jade, Kitana/Sonya, Kitana & Jade & Sonya

Earthrealm and Edenian Relations: what are they are like!! i'd love a story where sonya is an ambassador from the special forces and enjoying edenian culture. i think there would be a lot she'd like, and a lot jade and kitana would show her as they're proud of the strides they've made since sindel retook the throne.

Armageddon Endings: take your pick! i was delighted to see mk1 pick up the old plot thread of tanya as a dragon caller, so it had been thinking about these endings. any elaboration on them would be great!

Ace Combat (Video Games)
WB: Trigger’s kangaroo court martial (Ace Combat), Any or No Characters (Ace Combat (Video Games)), Original Character(s) (Ace Combat (Video Games)), Fanfiction, In-Universe Meta

In Ace Combat 7, Trigger is falsely accused of killing Harling, pronounced guilty, and sent to a penal colony less than a month later. Eventually, Trigger is proven innocent.

Looking for anything from media coverage, to how martial law works, to how Trigger approached it, to how/why the ones responsible arranged it.

In the event that he wasn't framed, it may have required both that the evidence (planes have recordings on them) got lost somehow (in which case how?) and Trigger pleaded guilty (but why?).


PH #9 - fic, meta - Exalted (Roleplaying Game) x3, Dungeons & Dragons (Roleplaying Game), Planescape (Roleplaying Game), Warframe x4

Request 1 by Seika
Dungeons & Dragons (Roleplaying Game)
WB: The Deserts of Athas (Dungeons & Dragons (Roleplaying Game)), WB: Athasian Slave Tribes (Dungeons & Dragons (Roleplaying Game)), WB: Athasian Elf Tribes (Dungeons & Dragons (Roleplaying Game)), WB: Athasian Challenge Combat (Dungeons & Dragons (Roleplaying Game)), WB: Athasian Bards (Dungeons & Dragons (Roleplaying Game)), Original Character(s) (Dungeons & Dragons (Roleplaying Game)), Any or No Characters (Dungeons & Dragons (Roleplaying Game)), Fanfiction, In-Universe Meta

As a rule, I'm not interested in the "revised" continuity of Dark Sun, which followed the novels into weird and wacky places about ancient halfling bioengineers doing an "oopsie" with the sun: I prefer the more stripped-down and mysterious history of the original box (which was at least loosely followed by the 4e version).

So:
The Deserts is pretty much a big catch-all category for exploring the majority of Athas. Consider: the history of the deserts (perhaps with regards to defilers, the sorcerer-kings, and the Dragon), navigation through them, living in them, the terror of being without water in them, and so forth.
The slave tribes and the elf tribes are fascinating inhabitants of the deserts. Consider for the slaves: the formation of these groups of escapees, their disparate members, any merging or splitting they might do, their internal politics and organisation, their conflicts. For elves: their protectiveness of their own members, their notoriety for treachery towards anyone else, their skill at navigating Athas' landscape.
Challenge combat (from Dragon Kings) has tonnes of potential for dramatic moments. Consider: great conflicts settled by challenge combat, particular traditions that champions or groups of people or city-states might have around challenge combat, high moments of treachery, times when challenge combat actually solved nothing.
Bards show the wealthier, but no less ruthless side of Athas, being (potential) assassins, infiltrators, and poisoners. Consider: their hiring as assassins and all that goes along with it, the idea of bards being "gifted" to other nobles, the social faux pas that is either being too obvious about sending bardic assassins or turning away bards just because they might be assassins and the consequences that result, the rare bard who does just want to play music, record history, and inspire people.

Exalted (Roleplaying Game)
WB: First Reports of Returning Solars (Exalted), WB: Chivalry of the Deathknights (Exalted), Original Character(s) (Exalted (Roleplaying Game)), Any or No Characters (Exalted (Roleplaying Game)), Unconquered Sun (Exalted), Fanfiction, In-Universe Meta

Preferring (early) 1e continuity and concepts here, i.e. loosely 1e core/STG, Caste Books, Scav Sons. Not necessarily Games of Divinity and all it brings.

First Reports of Returning Solars - not that Anathema are unknown to the world, obviously, but exploring the idea (perhaps especially among the movers and shakers of the world, and among other Exalted) that after the long centuries the Solars are finally Exalting in numbers again. The emotional and political repercussions. Speculation on why: I've always been taken by the book suggestions that it took this long for the reincarnating Solars to be cleansed of their misdeeds, or that the Unconquered Sun has finally turned his face back to Creation after so long in despair at the monstrosity of the Solars and nevertheless also at their destruction.

Chivalry of the Deathknights - quoth 1e core "Abyssal Exalted are the noble champions of Death. Full of grace, educated and even charming in their cold fashion, the deathknights are gentlefolk as well as peerless warriors." This is definitely my preferred version of the Abyssals, rather than Neph's meditations on grimdark, forcibly destructive Exalted on a tight Neverborn leash (they're dead and dreaming, not conscious plotters).
Consider: the very particular customs that make up Underworld/Abyssal courtesy, chivalry, and charm. What effect does . The feudality of being a deathknight: the loyalty owed both to the unliving Deathlords and the unliving "peasants" of the Underworld. The protectiveness and noblesse oblige shown by e.g. Shards of Basalt in CB: Dawn. The fact that Abyssals are, by some margin, the most likely other type of Exalted to team up with Solars in early material.

Planescape (Roleplaying Game)
WB: The Positive Energy Plane (Planescape (Roleplaying Game)), WB: The Negative Energy Plane (Planescape (Roleplaying Game)), WB: The Great Modron March (Planescape (Roleplaying Game)), WB: The Blood War (Planescape (Roleplaying Game)), WB: The Bleak Cabal's Charitable Works (Planescape (Roleplaying Game)), Original Character(s) (Planescape (Roleplaying Game)), Any or No Characters (Planescape (Roleplaying Game)), Fanfiction, In-Universe Meta

The energy planes: just, what "life" is like in these planes which are so hostile to life as we know it. Their visitors and the extremely careful protections they need to take to stay there. The bleak fortresses of the undead on the Negative. The xag-ya and the ravids and the xeg-yi. (See source: The Inner Planes)

The Blood War: the great battlefields of the Blood War. Fame won and long in its fighting. Spectacular victories or defeats that moved the needle, just a little, for a while, until the grinding and inevitable stalemate resumed. Other planar factions, entities, and powers intervening, for whatever goals they might have in mind. The machinations of the yugoloths, between demon and devil. (See source: Hellbound - the Blood War).

The Great Modron March: the sheer vastness of the enterprise. The reactions of everyone to this enormous intrusion. The opportunities presented by it or left in its wake. The reasoning behind the March. If it's an observation mission, then the things that the March is actually cataloguing, potentially from the modron and/or Primus point of view. The observer paradox and the degree to which anything the March finds is actually reflective of the truth, given its own impact.

The Bleak Cabal's charitable work: Because altruistic existentialism is cool and because gods know Sigil clearly needs charitable work. So: the places that the Cabal set up their hospitals and hospices and soup kitchens. People they encounter there. The specific types of Bleakers who engage in this work. Their actual day-to-day activities.

Warframe
WB: Tau under the Sentients, Lotus (Warframe), Hunhow (Warframe), Erra (Warframe), Original Character(s) (Warframe), Any or No Characters (Warframe), Fanfiction, In-Universe Meta

This could be:
a reflection on Tau as it was settled;
the turning of the Sentients against the Orokin, and potentially the decision to launch an attack against the Orokin in spite of the consequences for the Sentients who have to once again make the Void journey to the Origin system;
Lotus and/or Hunhow and/or Erra as they were on Tau;
what, potentially is happening on Tau "now", in the contemporary Warframe timeline;
ideas about what Tau might be like when or if the Tenno ever end up there.

WB: The Lotus' Family, Tenno (Warframe), Lotus (Warframe), Operator (Warframe), Erra (Warframe), Hunhow (Warframe), Fanfiction, In-Universe Meta

I mean. Arguably family is the point of Warframe. I'd love more ideas about how the Lotus relates to family both chosen and born, how Hunhow or Erra see her and her relationship to the Tenno, how the Tenno see Hunhow and Erra (particularly post-New War).


Request 6 by Seika
Warframe
WB: The Time Between The Old War and Awakening (Warframe), WB: The Tenno Reawakening (Warframe), Tenno (Warframe), Lotus (Warframe), Operator (Warframe), Original Character(s) (Warframe), Any or No Characters (Warframe), Fanfiction, In-Universe Meta

Between The Old War and Awakening - what were these long ages like for the inhabitants of the Origin System, as the Orokin fell, as the Grineer and Corpus rose (including for the Grineer or Corpus themselves, if you like?) What were they like for the Lotus? What was the Long Dream even like for the Tenno?

The Tenno Reawakening - what exactly was the trigger for Lotus reawakening us: what in the Origin system persuaded her that now was when we were needed? What were the reactions to the Tenno return for the Grineer, the Corpus, the general populace? What was it like for newly awakened Tenno, trying to get a hold of themselves and learn about the present Origin system and potentially meeting up with their fellows?


Request 7 by Seika
Warframe
WB: The New War (Warframe), WB: The Aftermath of the New War (Warframe), Operator (Warframe), Tenno (Warframe), Lotus (Warframe), Hunhow (Warframe), Fanfiction, In-Universe Meta

The New War - any more ideas on what this was like for the Origin system as a whole (Grineer/Corpus/unaligned), either during or after the conquest, outside the vignettes we got in the game? Maybe for Tenno who weren't the "Chosen Operator"? Or more examination of Lotus throughout? More thoughts on Hunhow (and his minions) at this time? The idea of calling his own son a Dax has so much weight to it ...

The aftermath of TNW - similarly, but especially the recovery for the system as a whole. You might also consider the remnant Sentients - not just Hunhow and Erra/Pazuul, but everyone else in the great Sentient fleet that now had to retreat back to the Veil. A closer and more intimate look at the Tenno recovery - the Chosen Operator and/or the body of the Tenno as a whole, especially alongside Lotus and her renewed self. Thoughts specifically on Lotus settling into her new persona (whichever it might be) and potentially Eternalism echoes that make her think of the other choices and paths she could have made.

Exalted (Roleplaying Game)
WB: The Bull Of The North's Conquests (Exalted), Yurgen Kaneko (Exalted), Original Character(s) (Exalted (Roleplaying Game)), Any or No Characters (Exalted (Roleplaying Game)), Fanfiction, In-Universe Meta

I know these are not necessarily popular opinions but, look, I think the Bull's cool. I think he's a neat character, and I think he's a great way to show just what you might be able to do to the setting. So let's have some fun. You could consider: how he starts getting the ball rolling on uniting the icewalkers, his first conquests of the cities thereafter, the slowly expanding ripples and reactions from farther and farther afield. The difficulties and consequences of his ongoing campaign as its reaches a greater and greater geographic extent, and the times when he has to stop and rest and resupply and rule.

Exalted (Roleplaying Game)
WB: The First Exaltation (Exalted), Unconquered Sun (Exalted), Gaia (Exalted), Autochthon (Exalted), Original Character(s) (Exalted (Roleplaying Game)), Any or No Characters (Exalted (Roleplaying Game)), Fanfiction, In-Universe Meta

Long ago, HLS said:


(UCS) "These Exaltations won't catalyze. What am I doing wrong?"
(Autochthon) "Let me see that. Hm. Are you putting everything you have into this?"
(UCS) "Of course not. Nothing can withstand that."
(Autochthon) "These Exaltations are insufficiently awesome. You must push yourself to your limits."
(UCS) "But I have none."
(Autochthon) "Nevertheless."
(UCS) "Very well—but I warned you."


And on that day the sun flared so that it encompassed the entire sky, and Creation was taken with terror and wonder. Luna rose ahead of schedule to shield the world from that unbearable light, and beneath the apocalyptic vision of this eclipse, the first [Solar] Exalted began to take the Second Breath... "


And it doesn't have to be this specific vision of the First Exaltation, but I'd still love to see some ideas around that. Was it at the same time as Luna and the Maidens and Gaia/the Dragons so that the whole Host rose together, or did one go first? Did each partner in the Divine Rebellion choose one champion to begin with, or were there many? What did it feel like for the new Exalted? What did the gods (and Autochthon and Gaia) think when they beheld their new creations?

• For all my Elden Ring requests: given how the lore of Elden Ring is doled out, please, please do not worry about contradicting canon. I could not care less that something is technically incorrect based on the description of a random helmet drop in the DLC. On the other hand, if you do have an encyclopaedic knowledge of Elden Ring lore feel free to lean into that.

WB: History of The Pureblood Knights
• Give me some backstory to Mohg and his knights before Miquella got his grubby, twink hands on him. When and how were the Pureblood Knights formed? Was every member as noble as Ansbach (either in terms of disposition or heritage)? If they were from noble families, how did they end up joining up with an omen? How did the Bloody Fingers end up fitting in with them?

WB: Leyndell During the Shattering
• I’d love to see something here showing how a beautiful fantasy city, the seat of royal and religious power, falls apart. How the bonds of civility slowly disintegrate, how people try to deal with life as they know it falling apart, how they fail to deal with it.

WB: Life in the Royal Court Pre-Shattering
• With Elden Ring we’re experiencing this world after the worst has happened, I’d be interested in seeing how things worked in better times (or at least when everyone isn’t trying to kill each other openly). Give me court politics and intrigue, give me bureaucracy. How did diplomacy work? How were Marika’s children raised, was consideration given to the idea they may rule one day or was that discounted on the grounds Marika would reign immortal? How were more distant relatives treated? How did the noble families factor into this?

• Please see my letter for a long list (too long to fit in this box!) of general likes.

WB: Bounty Hunting
• How does magic/mythological creatures/the general weirdness of the weird west factor into bounty hunting? What does “wanted: dead or alive” mean in a world where immortal beings and resurrection exist?

WB: Intelligent Fantasy Creatures' Legal Rights Or Lack Thereof
• I feel like this one could tie in nicely with the bounty hunting prompts above.
• As the law in the weird west is perhaps more flexible than it should be, how does this play into the rights of fantasy creatures? Are there areas where the local sheriff is sympathetic and so they get treated better than the letter of the law says they should? And vice versa, are there areas where the local law enforcement doesn’t care about enforcing the few rights they do have, or is even actively working against their interests? Are there fantasy creatures that are trying to break into local politics or campaigning for equal rights?

WB: Ranching of Fantasy Creatures
• Feel free to take a broad view of what falls under the definition of fantasy creature here. What are the creatures being raised for: their meat, their hides, their milk, something else? What unique challenges does rearing them present vs a mundane animal? If they are more difficult to keep what makes them worth it over mundane animals? Do cowboys exist and, if so, how different are they from their real-life counterparts? Do they get into conflict with local farmers over the fencing in of land that is used for ranching?
• I love the idea of something like a ‘how to’ ranching guide here.

WB: The Complications Of Patent Medicine And Snake Oil When Magic Is Real
• I love this idea, I love old-timey snake oil salesmen to begin with and the idea of them impersonating a magician is brilliant. Or the opposite, a genuine magician getting chased out of town because the townsfolk think they’re a conartist!

WB: The Postal Service
• How does magic affect the creation and implementation of a postal service over large areas of sparsely populated land? Are postal trains still used?

Dragon Age - All Media Types
WB: Life in Kal-Sharok (Dragon Age AMT), Original Character(s) (Dragon Age - All Media Types), Any or No Characters (Dragon Age - All Media Types), Fanfiction, In-Universe Meta

• Please see my letter for a long list (too long to fit in this box!) of general likes.

• I love Dragon Age dwarves and Kal-Sharok has fascinated me since DA:O. Feel free to pull from what little we got to see of it in Veilguard or from the codex of any of the other games. I’d be equally interested in anything set pre-first blight, during the first blight and the separation of the thaig from Orzammar, something set after Kal-Sharok is “rediscovered” or anything in the period in-between.
• I’d love to see something that shows an outsider’s perspective of the thaig. Perhaps the thoughts of an Orzammar dwarf that is visiting or a human that has been allowed in to discuss trade who has only ever integrated with surface dwarves before. Or something that goes into the daily life of how they survived after the thaig was cut off, or how they honour their Paragons or the structure and behaviour of their version of the Legion of the Dead.
• What sort of food and drink do they have in Kal-Sharok? How do they worship? Are they actually tainted by the blight? If so, how did that happen and what effect does that have on them?
• In-universe documents and/or epistolary fic would be really cool here.

• Treats enabled and always gratefully received (including art treats even where I am not specifically requesting art)!

• Please see my letter for a long list (too long to fit in this box!) of general likes.

WB: Fashion Trends
• Go wild with this one, I’d love anything here.
• What sort of practical concerns get translated into fashion trends (e.g. armour, face coverings)? How do fashion trends differ between the lower and upper classes? How do fashion brands market themselves?

WB: Kowloon Walled City-Type Infrastructures
• I love the creeping, claustrophobic atmosphere of a walled city! Who lives there? Is it by choice? What sort of lives do they lead? How do they interact with the world outside?

• Please see my letter for a long list (too long to fit in this box!) of general likes.

WB: Black Markets
• What sort of things end up on the black market? How does it logistically work? Is it something that law enforcement allows to continue (at least as long as they receive a bribe) or are there frequent arrests?

WB: Pirate Radio Stations
• I love the idea of this both as genuine radio stations (where people have returned to outdated technology because it’s harder for the government/corporations to control) or for you to take the concept of pirate radio stations as they exist in the real world and apply it to futuristic, cyberpunk technology (some kind of pirate VR channels?).
• Who runs the stations? Are they actively political or just a way of playing underground music? Are they popular? How do they stay undetected?

• Please see my letter for a long list (too long to fit in this box!) of general likes.

WB: Arranged Marriages to Eldritch Beings
• Who arranges the marriages? Is it purely symbolic or are they expected to live as a married couple? Are the humans consenting; is it seen as a privilege, or is it something they are forced into? Are the eldritch beings consenting, are they even aware it is happening (I’m thinking of creatures along the lines of Azathoth here)? How do eldritch beings conceive of marriage and how does it differ from humans?

WB: Human-Eldritch Hybrid Biology
• Go as weird and horrifying as you want here. New organs, new limbs, missing organs, hybrids that are barely identifiable as part human, hybrids that are barely identifiable as anything.

• Treats enabled and always gratefully received (including art treats even where I am not specifically requesting art)!

• Please see my letter for a long list (too long to fit in this box!) of general likes.

WB: Eldritch Nunneries
• I’m intrigued by the idea of combining this one with the arranged marriage prompt above, in a sort of mirror to the idea that christian nuns are "married" to God or Jesus.
• Other that that: how do they work? Who formed them? When were they formed? Are they thriving communities or are they dying off? Where do their novitiates come from? Is it seen as a privilege to join one? Are they secluded from the local community, or do they preach to them? Do they follow a strict set of religious rules (if you’re up to it I would adore something along the lines of an in-universe eldritch version of the Rule of St Augustine)?

WB: How Different Types Of Human-Eldritch Hybrids View Each Other
• I love the idea of conflict between the different types of hybrids here. Are the more human looking ones jealous of their siblings that take after the eldritch parent? Or are the more horrifying looking ones shunned?

• Treats enabled and always gratefully received (including art treats even where I am not specifically requesting art)!
