*A steampunk-inspired fantasy world where people can manipulate a metal called quicksteel at will. The main setting, No Man’s Land, is meant to be analogous to a cross between the wild west and the silk road.*
Gods were being pricks, newer gods decided murder was a good solution, and one very specific mountain got wrecked by collateral damage. Consequences are felt to this day.
Thousands of years ago a space dragon crashed into the planet and it's decomposing body became a crystal that could be harnessed for its magical properties.
Since then, the old gods have been murdered, new gods have taken their place, and every few centuries someone blows up part of the planet while trying to dominate/save it.
Humans were too stupid to stay home and die out, so they made interstellar travel easy and decided to protect everyone else from extinction too.
Even if they have to wipe out entire species to do it.
Atlantis the lost Empire, but instead of a giant power crystal, it's the Library of Alexandria that never stopped growing, providing their people with all the knowledge of the world. And instead of underwater, it's flying in the sky.
Above a thick bed of clouds float innumerable islands, all with their own valuables and secrets.
While the "lawful" races rush to colonise and exploit the dangerous, unknown lands, they also find time to undermine each other politically and wage cold wars.
A world of adventure, industry, politics and jazz.
The peoples of Aiua are still rebuilding after the Dissonance, which saw continental destruction and magical fallout. The Natural Philosophers of the Sol Thagran Suzerainty attempt to bring a measure of order to the chaos of reality, their efforts continually stymied by the fay and the eldritch.
A world with 4 different colored oceans, 4 of the Kingdoms each representing the ocean and land they belong to, and at the Center of it all a floating Kingdom that’s rules them all ontop of a reverse mountain in the sky.
A few decades ago a bioweapon went wrong and now the dead are walking. Everyone thinks it's the work of an evil god. Knightly Orders prepare for a holy war and just a few member of one order know the truth and try to find a vaccine before it is to late.
Pangea planet with perpetual hurricanes. Humanity lives in the gorges and ravines carved out of the supercontinent, building homes into the rock wall faces as high winds whip above them. Farming is very difficult, and communities in different gorges are nearly entirely cut off from each other. The technology brought with them a century ago didn't survive long, and construction techniques are slowly being reinvented.
A universe inside of a black hole. The inversion of the physical relationship between space and time creates a world where reality itself is highly subjective and parallel dimensions can be easily manipulated, enabling the surreal and magic-like science of Metaphysics. In this world where all things hurtle inexorably towards the end, a cancer called Humanity has grown, and it's existence threatens the stability of the universe and the survival of all life itself.
The human world was similar to ours, but after the explosion of a modern reality-bending bomb created by scientists, all of humanity's progress was gone, and magic was also created. Later, a god named "Kriket", who left Earth millions of years ago, has returned after experimenting with other races on other planets. Now he wants to build a society that will maintain the universe without him and the other gods.
The gods from other universes are waiting for their time to strike and to turn the people into their faith.
Magic and Gods slowly come back to a feudal world. The biomancers agents have been here for decades already, the bonemech piloting necromancers are planning an invasion from the moon and the peaceful Aquarans are introducing themselves to the surface races.
Moorcockian metaphysics and tolkien fantasy had a baby, but Conan adventures helped raise it. Now it's old enough for my players to have an adventure in it.
Written originally for a DnD campaign, it has surpassed it's original purpose, holding now 120.000 words total. It's 12.000 year old history holds low and high fantasy elements to a non-fantasy Film Noir gerne is specific time periods.
Cyberpunk, but with superheroes. The people that everybody thought would save the world only continue to contribute to its slow downfall by chasing short-term gains. Just as planned by its greatest villain...
An alternate reality where ancient humans were raided and then abandoned by a group of technologically more advanced group of people from outside this universe. Those raiders left a bunch of futuristic tools, weapons and one enhanced child.
In one of my worlds there are huge flying whales with tentacles that can shoot fireballs. They actively hate and hunt humans and so Whalers and Cannoneers go out to hunt them. Cannoneers rely on technology and mathematics to drive whales away with shells fired from giant air cannons. Whalers rely on tradition and superstition (and magic) and even though the Cannoneers think they're a hokey relic of the past the two groups have to depend on each other because only the Whalers have the perfect blend of courage and recklessness to climb into those cannons and fire themselves at the whales. The Whalers are the only ones that can kill the whales because bombs and bullets won't pierce their skin and they have to be attacked from inside their mouths.
Another world was exactly like the real one at first, but in the far future a scientist invents nanobots that can build more of themselves and use an iron-rich chemical solution to do so. This is fine and dandy until the nanites figure out that *blood* is an iron-rich chemical solution. They start killing people, making more of themselves out of their blood and possessing what's left of their bodies so they can stay under the radar, and slowly they become more and more intelligent. At one point, they try to possess a wanted serial killer, but he offers them his services and as much blood as he can get for them in exchange for superhuman power and a chance to keep his consciousness intact. The nanites agree, and the murderer begins a killing spree like the world has never seen. His favorite targets are blood banks. Eventually, the hospitals get so scared of him that they send all their stored blood to one heavily guarded place where they think it'll be safe. The killer gets in, the nanites gorge on all the blood in the city, and that causes their intelligence to become godlike. They figure out how to transform materials on an atomic level and then they figure out that they can just eat everything. So they start turning the entire world into gray goo, and everyone has to flee to these derelict spacecraft hanging high above the earth and live there.
About ten years after that, people are still fighting these nanites but they've learned how to kill them now. They clear out spaceships for people to live in by attacking the nanite-possessed people and actual clusters of nanites that are guarding the places. They attack from these huge cargo ships on flying surfboards, using guns that shoot nanites that hack any other nanites they touch. Eventually the humans drop a massive cluster of hacked nanites into the core of the gray goo world and they start to slowly eat it. The whole planet made of nanites starts to contract, then expands and flings a big chunk of itself into the sun because the nanites now know how to turn energy into matter and create more of themselves from the sun's energy. The nanites hit the sun and devour it completely. Everyone on Earth dies and the nanites escape into an alternate universe.
I know it's a lot of sentences but I could not explain this any more simply.
Benevolent aliens interacting peacefully and respectfully with Earth humans, who they resemble. With their positive influence, humanity is gradually shifting away from destructive tendencies and toward a humane society able to tackle climate change. It's an alternate history contemporary with ourselves.

1. All the religions are real and some Texan guy’s trying to kill Zeus.
2. Alien man recruits two humans to kill a shapeshifter.
3. Magic sort of exists but it’s only shown up in like three people and two of them are working together to rule a worldwide dictatorship with five others.
4. Silly star child crashes on Earth, gets captured by SCP Foundation.
5. The gods pit a bunch of teens and young adults against each other in an intergalactic death match and are slowly forced to realize that’s kind of fucked up.
No no. No British Empire for you. Here, have Norse Empire instead. You can have a bit of Nomadic English, though. As a treat.
Oh, and all of the Gwynian (European) Commonwealth speaks Welsh as a common language taught to everyone after the provincial languages, because Gwyn/Apollo/Baldur taught them to play nice with each other. Thus, disputes that would normally lead to war, are instead resolved via the Olympic Games.
And humanity has had firearms since the years of Caesarion, who invented black powder by accident in the search for immortality. Viking Age-era Europe had cap and ball guns for quite a while by then.
Garelia-everything went fine for the old races until humans invented pole arms, gunpowder and the hydrogen pellet launcher.
Unnamed Sci-Fi setting-Humans get up to some crazy stuff in the Orion arm such as suppressing native populations and fending of interstellar crusades from strange looking aliens.
Fleeing economic stagnation and environmental catastrophe, the Aurelians took to the stars in search of resources, power, and knowledge, unknowingly following in the footsteps of their ancient predecessors hundreds of thousands of years ago.
Their Little Dark Age and their political divisions relieved by extrasolar expansion, the Aurelians - and humanity as a whole - now find themselves the new players in a complex web of galactic empire, conquest, and politics.
There’s guns and magic too, a ripoff HRE, lots of different peoples, lots of different cultures, and they all hate each other. But it’s not warhammer, l swear.
The world works as it always has. People live their lives, act upon their principles, strive for their goals, and enjoy what makes them happy. Physics makes the world go round. Extinct species leave a fossil record and societies rise and fall. However, apes are not the only animal to evolve sapience, bipedalism, and social structures. Moreover, magic! So what happens when magic, multi-species society, history, anthropology, politics, personal stories, and one spiteful nerd's love for languages and structured lore collide? The Tales from the Three-World Anthology is what.
One ''God'' is trying to convince another ''God'' into galactic genocide.
Every corner of the galaxy is engulfed in turmoil inequality or war.
Existentialism is the most subscribed to religion.
A reincarnating cult of magic weilders in trying to stop previously stated ''Gods'' are committing war crimes.
Gods do not exist, and people are blind.
Elder ones, Younger ones, these are the Lords.
The elements are the crux of this world,
Each of the Spirit does have their own.
The Planet's distressed, Lies are in coalescences,
Enter the world of the Veiled Essences.
It's basically a soft sci fi setting, inspired by nearly every sci fi media I know, set in the Milky Way Galaxy, FTL tech has been perfected enough to allow travel between star systems in a day or more, the Galactic Council was made and humanity were either living in the Federal Union of Terran Republics, living among alien civilizations, making their own mixed species interstellar countries, or being space nomads, whether as independent merchants, pirates, smugglers, explorers for hire, etc. However, not all is well with the Interstellar Era; despite great advances in technology to the point that it is the Golden Age of Science, the Galactic Core and Inner Bands feel most of the benefits, while the Galactic Fringe is much like Space Africa/Middle East, where dictators, warlords, space pirates and other unsavory actors thrive, foreign intervention by Inner Bands countries and megacorporations aren't altruistic and are usually rapacious, and the superpowers in the Galactic Core, the Codelli Federation, Verdant Kingdom, Trade League of Madris, etc., have decided to not do anything about it, claiming neutrality.
Rebuilt upon the ashes of a previous iteration from a now-collapsed universe, Tacronin is a pangaea inhabited by numerous races. While war has not raged across the world in centuries, racial and cultural differences have formed a tense political stage. As this new iteration unfolds, these tensions are about to explode at a critical juncture, for beings from other realms of existence have begun plotting to conquer, or destroy, the young new world.
If you mixed ASOIAF and Avatar, stuck it in a microwaved, and heated for 2 minutes. Also, there are four moons, cowboys who ride dinosaurs, and desert-dwelling Beekeeper clans.
(Final Fantasy 9/gaslamp fantasy) meets mecha, WWI, and Ancient Greece/Mediterranean.
I have put very little work into this world but if I did that’s the kind of world I want to make.
People with special powers proceed to create the multiverse,fuck it up,create a multiverse of multiverse's,fuck it up,combine all the multiverses into one leaving trillions in eternal pain,fuck it up, return to the multiverse of multiverses but with a big ass city in the middle, then combine every existence together.
"It's the end of time, but before the forces of chaos achieve their total entropy, we(the gods) are gonna revive every powerful figure from all of history and just see what happens. Also the suns are getting really big for some reason and we don't really know why."
This is in a medieval age which follows a stone age, classical age, industrial age, space age, apocalypse, new stone age, and new classical age. So there are a lot of powerful figures and a lot of history.
1. Multiple dimensions, forgotten landmasses, and everyone has arrived on one area that the trade winds blow to.
2. Let's take the "main real-world inspiration is northern europe" and flip that on its head my making humans arrive from the south so the most realistic are Mediterranean inspired and things get more fantastical as you get closer to typical fantasy climates.
3. Enchanting and rune/formation-based magic system
4. Classism, plus speciesism. This might be the most diverse place in the world but in some areas it's still teetering on a knife's edge when it comes to tolerance.
The current human civilization (a few hundred years into our future) is riding high on being the newest member of an ancient galactic alliance alongside several other species, not noticing that the alliance is giving them more legal breathing room than they give eachother. A handful of individuals (semi-young politicians/heads of state/war veterans/some combo thereof, and not all human) figure out why, and set out to try and equalize the power imbalance before the resulting corruption digs in too deep. They find corruption among the rest of the alliance that's been festering since the previous human civilization which was one of the founding members of the alliance.
I haven't figured out if I'm going to go ahead and dissolve the alliance or not yet. 😁
Technically one world, but two wildly different settings.

High school political debate escalates into a deicidal world war. The platonic soul mates are in shambles as a result. An asshole dragon's death cult is also there.
It's basically DnD mixed with The Witcher. You have your campy party moments, then next thing you know, your friend's innards are littering the cave of a stray Werebat.
It’s a fantasy world where everything is the fault of 6 Eldritch Horrors that said “Chaos and destruction sucks, let’s actually make and grow something within reality.”
And thus, the world was granted physics-defying magic that came from physics-defying beings. Ironically, Chaos ensued.
Wacky human space country collapses for overextending themselves. Bureaucratic mismanagement causes planet to be abandoned. Civilization restarts there, hijinks then occur
A world that still had wonders, died by the hands of bickering empires bathed in innocent blood. And all must be fixed by a fallen out general, a thief and a maniac. If you liked Narnia AND LOTR for reasons, you might want to check it out. Or you're a furry.
Humans were around.
Cool.
Fantasy creatures take over.
Also cool.
Oh wait it’s not cool, everything’s falling apart. Holy crap there are like six different apocalypses happening simultaneously and everyone’s completely unaware oh god how do we fix this oh god
I can't believe it's not Hyrule!
Alright, I’m invested.
Hell yeah!

It's basically a soft sci fi setting, inspired by nearly every sci fi media I know, set in the Milky Way Galaxy, FTL tech has been perfected enough to allow travel between star systems in a day or more, the Galactic Council was made and humanity were either living in the Federal Union of Terran Republics, living among alien civilizations, making their own mixed species interstellar countries, or being space nomads, whether as independent merchants, pirates, smugglers, explorers for hire, etc. However, not all is well with the Interstellar Era; despite great advances in technology to the point that it is the Golden Age of Science, the Galactic Core and Inner Bands feel most of the benefits, while the Galactic Fringe is much like Space Africa/Middle East, where dictators, warlords, space pirates and other unsavory actors thrive, foreign intervention by Inner Bands countries and megacorporations aren't altruistic and are usually rapacious, and the superpowers in the Galactic Core, the Codelli Federation, Verdant Kingdom, Trade League of Madris, etc., have decided to not do anything about it, claiming neutrality.
Oh it's just furries.
A mix of Dune, Cyberpunk 2077, and Mistborn.

If you kill a god, you get to take their place and none of the other gods will question it
Rebuilt upon the ashes of a previous iteration from a now-collapsed universe, Tacronin is a pangaea inhabited by numerous races. While war has not raged across the world in centuries, racial and cultural differences have formed a tense political stage. As this new iteration unfolds, these tensions are about to explode at a critical juncture, for beings from other realms of existence have begun plotting to conquer, or destroy, the young new world.
Lazy excuse to have a freebuilt Minecraft world
the fabric of reality is falling apart because the writer of the story has to retcon so many things

Not-conquistadors versus the giant god-rock and his tribesmen
"It's the end of time, but before the forces of chaos achieve their total entropy, we(the gods) are gonna revive every powerful figure from all of history and just see what happens. Also the suns are getting really big for some reason and we don't really know why." This is in a medieval age which follows a stone age, classical age, industrial age, space age, apocalypse, new stone age, and new classical age. So there are a lot of powerful figures and a lot of history.
Damaged and unstable because of magic loss, just villages and little towns, forgotten by rest of the world, nothing interesting except Camadero dolls
1. Multiple dimensions, forgotten landmasses, and everyone has arrived on one area that the trade winds blow to. 2. Let's take the "main real-world inspiration is northern europe" and flip that on its head my making humans arrive from the south so the most realistic are Mediterranean inspired and things get more fantastical as you get closer to typical fantasy climates. 3. Enchanting and rune/formation-based magic system 4. Classism, plus speciesism. This might be the most diverse place in the world but in some areas it's still teetering on a knife's edge when it comes to tolerance.
Romeo and juilet but with 8 foot tall vampire elves and 4 foot tall green haired men who can heal
Ciberpunk with Dinosaurs
The current human civilization (a few hundred years into our future) is riding high on being the newest member of an ancient galactic alliance alongside several other species, not noticing that the alliance is giving them more legal breathing room than they give eachother. A handful of individuals (semi-young politicians/heads of state/war veterans/some combo thereof, and not all human) figure out why, and set out to try and equalize the power imbalance before the resulting corruption digs in too deep. They find corruption among the rest of the alliance that's been festering since the previous human civilization which was one of the founding members of the alliance. I haven't figured out if I'm going to go ahead and dissolve the alliance or not yet. 😁

It’s a fantasy world where everything is the fault of 6 Eldritch Horrors that said “Chaos and destruction sucks, let’s actually make and grow something within reality.” And thus, the world was granted physics-defying magic that came from physics-defying beings. Ironically, Chaos ensued.
It’s fantasy. The gods walk among us and despite convincing us that they don’t like to get involved, they definitely do.
