I'm wonking with the Talislanta 4E rules, and brewing up a new setting to go with them. So far I've got the Isle of Kandril setup as a valley oasis roughly the size of Australia, ringed by mountains in the midst of an ocean size desert.
As usual the "Big Cataclysm Thingy" just happened and people are trying to rebuild. Mine was enslavment of all races by otherworldy things and eventual rebellion.
Trying to work in ka, khef, and ka-tet from the Dark Tower series in, but since they haven't been fully explained yet...well I'm winging it. I'll probably also set up my Cosmology similar to the Towers (multiple layers on a central spoke, anchored by the Beams), although so far without the Crimson King angle.
Coming along nicely so far, I work on it when I have time here and there.
The best thing I find to do is just set aside 5 minutes every day to brainstorm ideas, then flesh 'em out when I have time. It's how I came up with one of the countries having freedom of the press.
There are 5 artifact printing presses, anyone using them must tell the truth as far as they know it, so they are basically useless for propaganda and therefore largely useless to the government. The country's Intelligence service makes sure to cover up any "newsworthy" stories before the reporters get there.
All because I brainstormed "How do the people of Country A have freedom of the press"
