[QUOTE="Adigard, post: 9067845, member: 7032446"] I'll skip the backstory and start a recap thread about my campaign soon, but I've been taking a stab at a more political / GoT'ish version of Zeitgeist. I made some modifications to the character backstories for each of the six pre-gen characters and placed it at 457 aov. Set with Risur drastically losing the third Yerasol war due to interference from her own nobility, before an armistice led to a brief calm. The BoFF one-shot ended a few hours ago with the party successfully defeating the Witches coven as Captain Aodhan sailed into the Flint harbor with a stolen Danoran steam ship (from RangerWickett's wonderful one-shot notion - The Kraken Caper - [URL='http://The Kraken Caper']https://www.enworld.org/threads/one-shots-for-zeitgeist.672790/post-8017937[/URL]). A one-shot I ran with this group earlier. The King handed the crown to Tomas Masaryk, with the plea to 'rescue his nation from the interference of her own corrupt nobility'. Not at all how I expect things to play out, but definitely a fun wrinkle! I'm using some of the wonderful Zeitvice details from Arkwright, including the Clergy's scheme... who want more influence to offset an early Danor-Risur superpower. Thinking about fun ways this could change the nation of Risur in 500 aov, and wanted to see if anyone had some fun notions. I'll go with the official timeline and have Tomas lead his new nation to defeat Danor in the war, before handing the crown to Lester Aodhan in 460 aov. But was hoping for some interesting societal changes a Clergy adherent could add while chasing Danor out of the Yerasol archipelago. [LIST] [*]Risur might see a slight increase in monks. [*]A more bureaucratic approach to divine casters where healing would require payment, and forbidding casters from healing the poor without reward. [*]From the campaign setting, it’s unlikely the Clergy will impact Risur’s religious beliefs. [*]The Family will find themselves much more welcome when they arrive, likely capturing abandoned land set aside by the Crown for Clergy use. [*]Risuri nobility will see their power weakened, but the Clergy likes hierarchies - so the former King's hopes likely won't be achieved. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
