Original Setting: A Slight Introduction...
It's been a while, I might as well talk about what I've been working on...
For the past eight and a half (even longer than that, actually) years, I've been working on an original setting that I want to talk about more publicly next year.
Right now, I'm mostly writing up stuff in an Obsidian doc, it right now has a lot of folders but this is the main one:
I won't lie that doing this on my own kind of sucks, but I really like being able to just do the creative process regardless. Being a Mega Man fan really has helped with the process too, but it still sucks no matter what lol.
So talking about it, I guess I can give a brief summary of what I'll be beginning with in the setting: Earth. I wanted, directly, to focus on Earth as the introduction to this setting and its cast of characters. While it is contemporary to our time, it is very different now as it takes place in an alt timeline set after 2010 - when a space colony from beyond our skies arrives. From there, a conflict ensues after two years of relative peace until the Earth wins, united, against this threat.
The project will focus on the time after the conflict; I may visit the conflict as part of a prequel or two, but I want to focus on the story that's in my head now. Seven years have passed since the end of the war where the story is currently at.
Most of the setting is relatively set in sci-fi fantasy. I will assure you that as there will be fantasy races and tropes involved.
But this project's story for Earth? Yeah, you bet your ass I want to do this.
