This idea I had is for a dungeons & dragons style adventure set in a massive cityscape, where instead of typical forests and castles you instead have to cross through the rough and tumble of the urban jungle. Players would take their cues from the GM and would be able to work together to solve problems. I don't like doing dice games so any combat we get into would be handled cinematically. That's just how i roll. I'd also like to offer players a few roles they can slip into so they're more comfortable with an unfamiliar setting. Roles like Inquisitor, Mafia Member, Vigilante, Burglar, and Sellsword to name a few. I'd be more than happy to discuss roles with players before committal. I'm also open to creative races and appearances too if you're the xenophile type of rpg player. I also enjoy a spice of horror in my campaigns, so expect some dark tones at appropriate moments. In all honesty I'm hoping I get to play this setting with people because I wanted to write a city based dnd campaign and would like to see how it'd play out.
Setting
In Grand Nocturne, someone always wants somebody dead, and for the right price these wishes come true. While the religious orthodoxy known as Dominion have control over the government, they don't spend as much time catering to the needs of the people. Therefore it becomes the people's job to police and maintain the city. Seeing a proper knight on the streets usually means trouble for the local gangs who prefer to settle problems themselves. Recently, one such knight had the misfortune of stepping too far into the territory of Hamlet Regaldo, head of the east side mafia. The knight was found hanged with his armor gone and a magic circle carved into his torso, so that if anyone tried to lower the body the rune would cause the corpse to explode. Dominion officials were infuriated by this insidious act and have placed a 200 gold bounty on Regaldo's head, and 5 pieces for information on the gang. Hamlet has denied having any knowledge of this crime or the events that proceeded it.
