Strangest Campaign Setting?

[KrazyHades]

What is the strangest campaign setting you've ever plated in, DMed for, or created? It can be published or homebrew. Strangest could mean "it all takes place on the Plane of Air" or "The earth is actually a giant floating cube which rotates around a black hole", or something else. I mean REALLY out there, not just "well...the elves DON'T have pointy ears!". Let's hear it!

OK, its not exactly a strange setting per se as much as it is a strange property to use for a setting.

Low Life seems plenty strange.

Of course there is always Tales from the Floating Vagabond.

Dragon's Hoard PbP which I am running now. It is part DnD, part Spell Jammer and part X-Crawl. Teams from ANY world gather to compete in a game of dangerous capture the flag for the entertainment of powerful creatures throughout the multiverse.

Strikeforce: Morituri Storyhour which I am hoping to revisit somehow. The multiverse is being destroyed. Heroes from different game worlds and types (DnD, Superheroes and super spys) must stop the destruction. Epic Level.

Chaos Effect which I am still plotting out. Begins in Eberron but spreads all over as the lords and gods of Chaos strike out. Allows for unlimited template use which is mucho fun for me as the DM.

Yeah, Tales from the Floating Vagabond would get a fond remembrance and nod from me too.

Maybe It Came From the Late, Late, Late Show as well....

Oh! I just remembered HOL (Human Occupied Landfill).

Here's my five...
1) Cidri (TFT): You are on the surface of a dyson sphere orbiting a sun... Sword and sorcery.
2) Time traveling dimension hopping undead spacers: (Gurps Infinite worlds plus a ton of world books) Start in the Imperium and have a jump drive accident. Then the campaign started.
3) Geriatric Wars: 90+ year olds (the only trained soldiers left) goes forth to save the world. Mecha, etc... Just hold them off while we train new solders and develop the rejuvenation program.
4) Traveller Martial Arts: On Azun there is a tournament to decide the fate of the universe. The martial artists must gather the weapons of the champions so that they could defeat the death dragon and prevent the next long night.
5) It's the small ice age that occurred during the bronze age. The elders of a small village in China has a solution to stop the ice age (not knowing climatologic science). Send four warriors to aid the sun, they send the PC's west to find the home of the sun and to help him out (not knowing that the sun is a big fusion reaction in the sky).

Oh! I just remembered HOL (Human Occupied Landfill).

Played that. Yes it was wierd. But any game where you can run an entire campaign on the Quest for Beer (Finally got a 6-Pack of Whup-Ass; Saki Flavored) can't be all bad.

Then again, when you load a Shotgun with a Giant Hamster's Testicles & use it to blow the brains out of a Giant Squid. I might have to re-think that.

And the fact that the Guy (as in PC) with the Highest Appearence score was do to his Triple-F Breast Implants....

Thanks a lot!

Now you've gone & brought up all those repressed memories. The HORROR! THE HORROR!


On D&D Side:

I've ran my player's through Both the Plane of Flesh & the Plane of Poop.

One is where the Earth Plane is so infused with Positive Energy, the Entire Plane begins to be infused with Living Tissue (See Project AKira for an Example).

Plane of Poop is where all the Refuse from all the Layers of the Abyss Winds up.

My players really got tired of Urine Storms (& when it "Hailed" they really disliked it).

I ran one campaign where the players played themselves in Over the Edge where they won tickets to the Island. It included one session where they played themselves, playing Over the Edge, playing themselves. The metaphysics burst this GM's brain!

Bunnies and Burrows was always good for a larf too.........
