It is three-forty in the morning. Let me say that before I launch any further into the idea that has been had.
A universe with no element of water. There are only Earth, Wind, and Fire. (You should see where this is going already.)
The material plane--
Bu'gay Wahnderland--is a strange place. Dancing is necessary for life in the same way that water is necessary in our world. There is an elemental plane of dance. Bards with ranks in Perform (Dance) are considered to be gifted individuals, blessed with a natural connection to one of the most vital resources.
Secretly, the world is also ruled by an enigmatic entity. He works primarily through various intermediary agents, so his rulership is not immediately apparent. He is, in fact, a Purple Lich--a lich who, rather than drawing his powers from arcane magic or psionics, uses the power of
funk. His name is
Rasputin. He spends much of his time on the Elemental Plane of Dance, in the Dance Elemental city of
Moskau, though he has been known to visit the other elemental planes--most frequently, the efreet city of
Disco Inferno, a trading-city fashioned from brass that lies on the Elemental Plane of Fire.
In this campaign setting, if you want to be
staying alive, then
you should be dancing.
Now, as ridiculous as that was, I will now make it even more ridiculous:
I actually really want to flesh out and run this campaign setting. Any ideas?
