Happy WBW! (I thought I had posted this, I just found this in my drafts, I'm so sorry!)

Ouuh, this is fun!

Since I now finally have a big, non-DnD WIP with more complex world building (Hooray!), let the worlds of NNINBF and Starchaser collide!

The basic premise of Starchaser is simple - it’s the story of normal humans that get kidnapped into space.

The basic premise of NNINBF is simple too - how would a standard high-fantasy setting look like in modern times?

So first of all - the cast of characters would be a lot more diverse. In Starchaser, the humans are kidnapped from all around the globe. Scotland. Japan. Italy. The Americanas. But if we assume that the people that are being kidnapped are from Terra (the alternative earth from NNINBF. Very creative, I know), we would only have a handful of humans. We would have space Elves. Space Orcs. Space Dwarfs. And other stuff!

Happy WBW!

I haven't really thought about that, to be honest. Most of the time,the PCs get around by plane, because I'm a big aeronautics nerd.

In Sillecon Valley (which is the location where the seat of the presidency is on this alternative world), you basically just have a bunch of monorails and stuff. Anything that looks cool.

And lasty - any Wizard has a special connection to their familiar. Which... Is a type of vehicle for them. The history behind that is that many wizards in the past used to have a horse as a familiar (cause y'know. Enchanted horse. Good for long travles) and stayed with them being a method of transportation after cars were invented.

Hi Tori! Thanks for the ask! (I'll get back to the others ones too... They're still in my drafts... And once I find the time...)

Technically, everything should be able to be healed magically... But that's not how it works.

Being a high-fantasy version of our world, Nothing New in New Big Falls also sometimes mirrors whatever we have - mages qualified to instantly heal people are rare and if you wanna be healed by one - well, you better pay them a good sum of money!

Another important thing to pay attention to would be curses. Curses can be treated by normal medicine, but they never really go away - they can only be removed by the person taht actually placed the curse.

One of the PCs has a grandma that is permanently hospitalized due to being cursed within her work as a bounty-hunter.

Thanks for the ask! Hm… This is a tough one. I’d probably have to say the Lizardfolk!

Lizardfolk used to be demonised a lot, since they’re literally ‘cold blooded’ and were often accused of eating other, sentient beings. This, of course, is not the case, but it is a bias that stuck with the species for a long time.

Thanks for the ask!

I don’t think gratitude is too different in NBF - not from our world, at least - but it mostly depends on the culture.

The dwarves, for example, are very big into returning favours and giving you presents as a gratitude. Halflings will become fiercely loyal, wether for their own good or not.

Thanks for the ask! (And... Sorry for the late reply. I forgot I didn't post this!)

To a certian degree, all Ghost Stories in the world of NNINBF are true - this is because essentially, the magic system relies on the concept of 'if enough people belive in it, it exists'.

That being said, there is a story for young dragons that if they behave badly, another dragon will come snatch them away and put them in a school with strict rules and no sweets.

Hi there! And thanks a lot for the ask!

I would love to say that my DnD-world is all happy-go-lucky and that I‘m a merciful DM towards my players… But I‘m not. And I‘m too much of a horror-enthusiast to not include some things that are at least slightly creepy :)

Thanks for the ask! More room to talk about my DND-Setting, hooaray! Also, everyone living in the area affected by the storm - Stay safe out there!

'Natural Threat' is a hard word for the world of NNiNBF, because, as I mentioned previously, everything is magical and most things can be prevented. However, if they count, I would name three things:

-Dragons. Those things are generally the most powerful mortal beings and they can stir up shit pretty hard if they desire to.

-The gods. Espeically Mirage, the god of coincidence who, as the name suggests, is a complete wildcard that has literally wiped out an entire ancient civilization of old elves because they 'felt like it lol'.

-The president of the United States, who I mentioned previously. I mean... He is a human so he is 'natural' and he is a controll-obsessed maniac that uses pidgeons to spy on the public so... that might count.
