Message: <blockquote data-quote="weem" data-source="post: 5540007" data-attributes="member: 9470">Thanks for the responses so far!The great thing about this idea is that I already have a city that fits this description in my homebrew world. I also dig the idea of the base camp. Isn't there a mod for 4e that is similar to this - focused on exploring the ruins of an entire city? Might get some ideas from that as well.I dig the thieves guid idea. Let's you mix up the missions, as you have mentioned - get some variety in. Plus I have always loved said guilds, hehe. The caravan idea is great as well - I have always been fond of the traveling aspect as it allows you to present your entire world/large kingdom/etc to the players - especially in a world that is new to them.Yea, I did a little bit of this in my previous campaign - players were on a large airship. There was a large story arc they were a part of (the ship was heading to a temple that was going to take some time to get to) as well as smaller stories they could explore day to day.Funny you should mention Firefly as well - we have been playing in a Serenity RPG campaign with our own ship! The airship idea is still kicking around in my head as a potential idea, I would just need to do something different with it as the players have done that with me semi-recently (and some of them played in the Serenity game).Interesting. There are a number of places this could go (come from). Maybe there is a group who has the power to get it's members into this dream world in such a fashion that they have more control over their actions there than anyone else. This way, even when they are not in the dream world, I can explain why they are together. Maybe there are even residual effects for interacting with the dream world in this way that carry over to the real world.</blockquote>
