Night City 2077-style cyberpunk, 2077
Night City, 2077-style cyberpunk dystopia. Rain-slicked streets, neon, mega-corps, street gangs, chrome clinics, noodle stands, and constant low-level danger. The city runs itself with random events, rumors, debt pressure, and opportunities. Start with a character background from four options, then wake in a cheap apartment in Watson or Japantown with a little cash, no big plan, and a day-to-day life shaped by jobs, rumors, and chaos.
Accordia, 1007 ALB
In this universe, the species known as humans does not exist, has never existed in the past, does not exist in the present. This world is not Earth; the planet is called Accordia and consists of three major continents, each inhabited exclusively by magical races native to the Equestria at War and My Little Pony setting in 1007 ALB, which is set roughly around the time before the MLP Season 6 finale or the My Little Pony: The Movie (2017) era, possessing their own biology, cultures, histories, and political systems that fully replace any human analogues. The technological development of this world corresponds to the level of the 1920s–1930s, but all technologies, institutions, ideologies, and cultural phenomena are adapted to the magical nature of Accordia’s races and have no direct or indirect connection to human history.
Continent Equus - The Western continent, featuring nations such as Equestria, Olenia and the Changelings and others. The continent is well-developed in terms of technology.
Griffonia Continent - The Eastern Continent, with nations such as the Griffonian Empire, Wingbardy, Aquileia As well as the countries of the River Federation and others. The continent is well-developed in terms of technology.
Continent Zebrica - the continent to the south, Countries located on the continent include Hippogriffia, Chiropterra, the Realm of Kiria, and others. This continent is technologically less developed than the others. It is an analogy of Africa and Asia. The continent is home to various underdeveloped and primitive tribes, as well as well-developed nations.
The world of Accordia is a complex landscape of shifting alliances, industrial advancement, and ancient magic. Below is a summary of the key nations, races, and historical turning points.
I. Major Nations & Political Entities
Equestria: An ancient land of ponykind ruled by the Alicorn sisters, Celestia and Luna. It operates on the principles of Harmony but has faced internal stagnation and external threats.
The Crystal Empire: A northern kingdom of Crystal Ponies powered by the Crystal Heart. It was once enslaved by the tyrant Sombra and vanished for a thousand years before being restored under Princess Cadance.
The Changeling Queendom: Populated by insectoid shapeshifters who feed on love. Under Queen Chrysalis, the hives unified and launched a massive invasion of Equestria in 1002 ALB, which was narrowly repelled at Canterlot.
Stalliongrad: A breakaway communist state in the Severyana region. It was formed after a 991 ALB famine and a subsequent violent crackdown by the Equestrian Guard led to a successful revolution.
Nova Griffonia: Originally a colony of the Griffonian Empire settled by griffons, it became independent after the Empire's collapse in 978 ALB. It struggles with a weak industrial base and political instability.
Other Notable Lands:
Olenia: A kingdom of deer known for electrical manufacturing.
Yakyakistan: Home to the fierce and isolationist Yaks.
Pingland: A stable monarchy of Penguins in the frozen north.
The Polar Bear Communities: A collection of clans currently being modernized by Paw Wellington.
II. Primary Races & Their Traits
Ponies: Divided into Earth Ponies (strength/agriculture), Unicorns (magic/scholarship), and Pegasi (flight/weather control).
Thestrals (Batponies): Night-dwelling cousins to Pegasi with leathery wings and excellent night vision; they often face societal discrimination.
Alicorns: Rare, long-lived leaders who possess the traits of all three primary pony races.
Changelings: Shapeshifters who can mimic voices and forms. They are highly militarized and technologically advanced.
Griffons: Avian-feline hybrids; many live in the independent territories of Nova Griffonia or the chaotic Griffon Frontier.
Other Sentient Species: Includes Yaks (strong and resistant to foreign rule), Deer (seagoing and industrial), Polar Bears (clan-based warriors), and Penguins (independent flightless birds).
III. Key Historical Events
The Banishment of Nightmare Moon: Over 1,000 years ago, Princess Luna's resentment turned her into Nightmare Moon, leading to her imprisonment on the moon by Celestia.
The Fall of the Griffonian Empire (978 ALB): A revolution triggered the collapse of the central empire, leading to the independence of colonies like Nova Griffonia and widespread regional chaos.
The Return of Harmony (1000 ALB): Nightmare Moon returned but was defeated and redeemed by Twilight Sparkle and her friends, the Avatars of Harmony.
The Great Changeling Invasion (1002 ALB): A major turning point that forced a stagnant Equestria to begin reconsidering its military preparedness.
The Tangle of Chionthar, 1492
In the dense, magical periphery of the Wood of Sharp Teeth near Baldur's Gate, the reach of the Flaming Fist is thin. Settlers and outcasts struggle against encroaching fey-corrupted flora and the economic squeeze of city-state tariffs while surviving on the edge of the Coast Way.
Jakarta Freshmen Reality, 2024
You are a 19-year-old freshman in Jakarta, Indonesia, possessing a mysterious software that allows you to alter your own physical, financial, and social data. While the software provides a 'digital edge' for seduction and self-improvement, you must still navigate the concrete realities of university life, traffic-heavy commutes, and the strict social hierarchies of the capital. Balance the pursuit of affection and high status with the practical demands of rent, grades, and survival in a city that never stops judging.
The Steerage Restoration, 1894
You were once the master of your own kitchen in Ireland, but the failures of the Old World have driven you to the docks of lower Manhattan. Arriving in 1894 with the culinary skills of a restaurateur but the legal status of a penniless arrival, you must navigate the brutal competition of Five Points and the Waterfront. Your goal is to regain your dignity and perhaps, eventually, own a stove of your own again in a city that views you as just another mouth to feed.
