Idiot on the moon.
Hello! This is my first ever world idea so sorry if the writing and style is all over the place.. It's not for D&D, its for general RP. Any feedback would be appreciated and if anyone would like to help me write the world, that would be great.
Its the near future and there is a colony mission to a habitable alien planet by the name of "Altis".
Tech is still somewhat modern, No lasers, teleporters, none of that.
The human plot is, NASA finds a habitable planet in a different solar system and send a group of astronauts. Once they arrive they find out this planet is literally a fantasy world. With Elves, Dragons, Orcs, all of that stuff. And now they need to work with the natives to create the first interstellar colony.
Each race would have their own relation to the human colonists.
There are 8 races.
Elves: Can use magic, Humanlike, See themselves as the top race on Altis, They would see humanity as a rival.
Dwarves: Master craftsmen and resource gatherers, they can easily create anything from blades to rudimentary guns, And later in the story, human tech. Can use magic
Kobolds: Quick witted and smart, They would be able to learn from human tech. Can use magic.
Dragons: Wise and old, They would not be a player race but instead NPC's
Anths: Literally furries, If somebody that is into that stuff, this is the race for them. Devoutly religious, See the coming of humanity as a sign from the gods. Can use magic [Please note, I'm not a furry Im just trying to be inclusive.]
Shapeshifters: Able to become literally anything, Some can be kind and extremely helpful others can be seductive and mischievous. When morphing into other people, they don't copy there mannerisms or body language. When morphing into complex things, they get tired out. They can only become things they have seen in the past.
Orcs: Hostile and annoying, There all over the planet and they usually try to steal things. There is a HUGE amount of them. Can't use magic.
Humans: Astronauts, They cant use magic, They have modern weaponry and tools. IE. Guns, Drills, stuff like that. They would not have the tools or weapons for any kind of invasion.
The tech level of Humanity would be similar to the movie Interstellar or Avatar. No lasers, No gravity on ships, No teleporters or portals, EXT. Pretty much the kind of tech you might see in the next 10-20 years just with a warpdrive.
The Human characters would be a setup/scouting team that would set up the colony, 5-10 years later, the main colony ship would arrive, carrying the actual colonists.
From the perspective of human players it would start with the landing sequence. From the perspective of every other race, it would be what they were doing at the time of "Planetfall".
