Paramount
I honestly can't think of a good title
Personally, I've always been mulling over an RP that takes place in a major late-medieval king's court, or even more recently than that. Players would start as minor members of the king's court: small-time knights, assistants to diplomats, guardsmen, roles like those. Most of the RP would be spent in the castle, and focus on political maneuvering, gaining and giving favors to others, and making the best of whatever situation you have as you try to climb the ranks of the king's court. The castle would periodically be struck by things like plagues, unrest, murders, maybe even sieges, and the players would have to ensure their own safety while simultaneously attempting to use the situation to advance their own standing.
I always liked the idea of an RP based around intrigue and subtlety rather than outright killing. Sadly, I also know it would be very difficult to make legitimately interesting to the players and very hard to run.
How about you guys? What are some ideas that have been flying around your head that you don't think you'll ever fully develop?
