Game Idea Tracker
I am realistically never going to DWRP, let alone mod a game, but I keep having ideas so here's my idea tracker. They're open for anyone to use.
Nobilis Murdergame
Canonically, to form a new chancel there must be 50 deaths over 50 days. So, a Darklord collects people from across the World Ash and seals them in a...city? Castle? Somewhere. And gleefully encourages them to start killing. Aside from the usual murderfun, play would include investigating who the fuck the mysterious kidnapper is, debating the ethics of murder in service to an Imperator, and Excrucians breaking in at some point because of course. Potential problems: getting enough characters in the game that reaching 50 deaths is actually achievable, striking a balance in pacing between tiny short-run murdergame and big ole DW games.
Nobilis the Game
I dunno, I just think high-powered, high-stakes tea parties works well as a "slice-of-life" game. Potential problems: would anyone even want high-powered high-stakes tea parties in an interesting way?
You're All Fake
Based off of Fate/Stay, FF Brave Exvius, C - The Power of Money And Control, and probably some other stuff I'm forgetting. A fantasy game in which all the characters know they're fakes from the start. They're actually sapient figments from the world of dream, pulled into a fantasy setting and somehow given intelligence. The world of dream exists as its own setting and players can do whatever the hell they want in there. The "real" world has...stuff going on, I guess, and only has figment magic - summoning dream-things and dream-people to use. The characters are the first self-aware figments known to exist and it makes "real" people very nervous. Potential problems: guess it needs a plot hahaha...
Exalted Wargame
Infernals. Just, Infernals. Or, alternately, make up unique yozi-equivalents. Characters are recruited to war/take missions against Creation. Potential problems: converting Infernal charm trees into something that works for DWRP, making missions looks...hard.
Magical Girls Wargame
Some characters get magical girl transformations, some characters get Excrucian-esqu villain outfits, they run around fantastical Tokyo or something, throwing anime attacks and looking pretty. Potential problems: nobody gives a shit about magical girl games apparently.
