current concepts:
--an rp/semi-fwrp/story based around a city who's main magic system is linked to runes and elemental spirits
--a story about a character that gets stuck in the mindscape/dream realm/alternate world where they encounter different versions of themself or monsters that represent parts of their personality
--a story about an animal-ruled world where a feline explorer finds some ruins and realizes that they have a connection to said ruins
--a story about a human-turned-shadow-deity adventuring around the world with some allies to take down a mind-controlling light deity who brainwashed shadow deity's friend
--dragon species (because those are very fun to create)
--alchemy magic system, but it's also a demon summoning magic system

anyways let's chat about that first one
--alright, so the city's name is Visall City, also known as just Visall. It's pretty similar to San Francisco (aka the coolest city ive ever visited), if youve ever been there: has large buildings near the center and smaller, more suburban buildings around it. probably has an iconic bridge, too. idk we'll see
--the city is located on the West Coast of the USA, in what's called a Sector Eye, which is basically an area surrounded by magic sectors that doesn't have a specific type of elemental energy. think of it as like the eye of a storm.
--Sectors are areas with specific types of wild elemental energy. there are 5 sectors around Visall City: the Coral Forest, the Twilight Woods, the Bamboo Plateau, the Crystalline Cliffs, and the Ashwind Volcano.
--Sectors are home to spirits, which are pure beings made out of elemental energy, that usually take the form of a mythical creature. Spirits have glyphs on their bodies that help them perform elemental spells. A human can use magic by drawing one of these glyphs. Many mages capture and tame spirits to help them learn magic. Tamed spirits are known as familiars, while untamed spirits are known as, well, wild spirits.
--There are also archspirits, which are sort of like the gods to the sectors. Archspirits are created by bonding elemental energy to the deceased soul of a human. There's one archspirit for each sector. Archspirits are very proficient in their sector's type of magic, and don't even need runes to do it -- however, they cannot use magic of the other sects.
--There's magical races too! They were created when the archspirits enchanted humans with magic. There are three native magical races to the sectors around Visall: the Nereids of the Coral Forest, the Weavers of the Twilight Woods, and the Golems of the Crystalline Cliffs.
--Visall City has a school, too: Silverwood Academy. This school is known for its stellar magic courses. It goes from grades 9-12. The school colors, much like the name would suggest, are green and silver.
and that's the summery. i'll do another post going into detail about all of this

a metroidvania esque rp or story could be a pretty neat idea too
basically a character/multiple characters gain abilities and powers throughout the story while exploring a large interconnected area
