Questionable Questing

What kind of ideas?

But shattered kingdom? That makes me think of some massive cataclysm like an apocalyptic flood or hordes of Monsters sticking up from below the surfaces. Or vast fields of corrupted flesh trees. lol

I mean i've told you about most of the ideas. But there was a couple weird ones, like the predecessor to queen mother which was written several years ago and started out as a Self Insert into Cersei from the perspective of Newly made hand of the king Eddard Stark, as he tries to make sense of her seemingly nonsensical schemes with a hint of magic slowly being discovered.

Shattered is what they call the kingdoms for their constant war and how the rulers under the Robert character aren't really into being one unified realm. Very odd. Creative with how it plays with pov your idea

Or a My Hero Academia one also written a long time ago, about Deku finding these comic book villain masks from Batman and Spiderman that was created unknowingly by this superfan, who's quirk was making paintings that could come to life and he had imparted these power into these masks before he ended up getting put in a coma after a failed recruitment attempt by All for One.

Anyway the story would follow Deku, wearing those masks and not only developing their powers and abilities but also slowly gaining their memories and experiences. With him over time getting torn between the idyllic hero life that he always dreamed of under All Might, and the freedom and self discovery he's found playing as these various villains.

With a big emphasis on Harley Quinn in particular, since through that mask Deku learns he likes boys and girls and starts exploring that under her influence. With him developing relationships with some of the prominent villains of the Manga and unknowingly hijacking several movements in the process. As his desire to be a hero clashes with the new reality that sometimes the status quo hurts people.

Deku as a trans girl or femboy Harly ?Quin? Or full genderbend?

He goes full Genderbend under the mask, but a huge theme of it is him slowly learning that the mask isn't real it's just him. So trans Deku? I guess. Kinda considering it's a Jackal and Hyde situation where Harley Quinn is doing all the stuff he wishes his Heroic persona could do?

You have a habit of pushing boundaries of imagination with exploring wild situations. Its interesting. Wish to hear of Shattered Kingdoms?

Thank you. Wish I had a place to put all these ideas so other people could use them. But that would mean going on Discord or the more busy parts of QQ and being social. And as an introvert I hate that last word. lol. But go ahead with Shattered Kingdom. Are you making any changes to the structure of the seven kingdoms? Even keeping the name for it or changing it to something else?

Something else. Much combining is happening. Like Vale of Arryn, that has to do with very particular history with the Andals I can't just copy and paste. No fun in that or creative integarity

Well the dynamic between the Vale and the Mountain Clans should be easy enough. You might not keep the Seven who are one religion, but you'll have to have something to replace it since it's so integral to the story. But settlers, following this new religion settle into the Vale, they have better Iron technology instead of Bronze and organization. So they quickly conquer the major settlements.

Rename them and establish their own little kingdom. But they don't have the main power and ability to hold onto the mountainous terrain where their technological advantage gets evened out by the weather and terrain. Thus establish that dynamic as it evolves over the next several generations. Now you just need a reason for the major fortifications and you have your Vale.

I was almost considering having the vampires of the West be fused with the Vale for fortress region of doom

Hated by the orcs who exalt the sun and moon's many forms as the different incarnations of their gods

That could be fun. I was just trying to come up with a pre magic history. Which speaking of, are you still doing that or integrating magic and gods since the very beginning?

Latter. The pre magic worked as it was Game of Thrones which had those myths of a time of magic before the story starts. Loses its charm when its a original setting. People know Game of Thrones is low fantasy, that's what made turning it high fantasy shine

Makes sense. But a big part for the charm of Hurrik was seeing the culture and society change and evolve thanks to the introduction of magic and I would hate to see that aspect go away.

Replace that with instead of a long legacy of a Iron Throne, this is the first High King situation in a while and eveyrone is wondering if it will last past the first conquest. All the different kingdoms do not get along
