Slushpost Mark .3 - AKA Bleurrghhghhgh Words


Yet another slushpost whilest I work on actual content. Use at your own peril. All ideas are forfeit if I get to them before you do.
  1. There is a shocking lack of mucus in our community. This should be remedied.
  2. Also, WHY DON'T WE HAVE MORE BAT PEOPLE??
  3. Seriously, gimme more floofy, dapper, flightless walking bat civilizations.

  7. The Bitter Sea.
  8. An Attack-Fort.
  9. Paper-mâché masks of mythical beasts, perhaps some truly capture those creatures essence.

  23. People put deathbed breastplates on the deceased to prevent organ theft.
  24. An entire fleet of warships that misjumped and were lost, waiting for someone to come along.
  25. The swamp cities worship Obolus, the petty frog god of kilns, bricks, and clay.
  26. The god of wheels whose worshippers consider it sinful to walk. Their entire culture is built on wheeled vehicles and they wear wheeled shoes. Famed for their fierce roller-warriors.
  27. A host of riders with shields, bodies, and horses painted black who attack only at night.
  28. Show cultures singing and dancing more, even if only for flavor.
  29. Margrave is an excellent title that should be utilized more.
  30. As is Wildcount (or Waldgraf) the title of someone whose domain consists solely of forest/wildland.

  32. Grandma Menhir loves all her grandchildren with all her big stone heart.

  36. Transdimensional Jesuits showing up in Carcosa, the Dreamlands, anywhere really, trying to convert the locals.
  37. A demon made out of broken coat hangers.
  38. What if the typical rpg archetypes of the adventurer and thief, wizard, fighter (and others potentially) existed in universe as stock characters in comedy plays and puppet shows.
  39. The artisan workshops of the Brass City trace their lineages back to particular masters, thus forming workshop clans which are often involved in intense rivalries with each other.

  45. A place where salt slurry is brought up from deep in the earth, natural gases seep out too and these are harnessed to burn the water away from the salt.
  46. Old military semi-aristocracy warrior class is being replaced by a new state military, now they join roving street gangs as swords for hire.
