Fate/ Crimson Dream Singup

Well I guess it will end up being modern city after all.

Factions and wars are interesting concepts, but a little bit too ambitious for now I think.

Maybe if we finish this one we'll get more creative next time.

Be careful of what you say, i may just take you up on that some day in the future.

Feel free to do so. It would be complicated, but if things go well it might be a really eventfull game.

So people, setting. Big city or small town? How about New York? Maybe your hometown if you feel like describing it.

I'd prefer something... smaller? NYC is the big apple and all that, but isn't it called "the city that never sleeps" for a reason? There's activity there 24/7 so it's impossible to do a magic showdown without a few hundred people noticing it.

I'd suggest something smaller, like a medium sized town, or something. And rather than trying to make a real location work somehow, i say we make up our own location. Or just take a real one and... modify it... for our needs.

Prague?

Hmmm you do have a point Mu Nu Xi.

Then can you take care of it? I'm not really good at building cities. Just a general description a ffew points of interest would be more enough, that way we can all expand on it as needed.

Then how about something like this for a original location:

It's a medium-sized town that can be divided in 2 sides: the residential area and the business district, the residential area is much larger, occupied mostly by small houses with the occasional villa (you can introduce manors or other stuff, since they could be located near the edge or on a errant hill or something like that).

The business district is located at the west side of the town with 2 large buildings occupying the center.

In the north part of the town there is a large park with a decent lake at it's northern edge, there also is a smaller park in the business district, but it's only a third the size of the big one.

There is a statue in the smaller park of some importance to the locals, schools and the such are usually found in the residential area.

Oh, and there's a theme park of some sort on the southern part of the town.

Hm.... is that any good? Anything else anyone wants to add?

Thats perfect.

Lets add a Large Church near the center of the city, with smaller chapels covering the rest of it.

Hmmm in what sort of terrain is our city? Mountains? Plains? Near the coast?

Plains, you can't have a theme park on uneven terrain, and i thought about the lake being the only body of water. Of course, that's subject to change.

On a related note: we need names, people! One thing i suck at is naming, so... fire away.

Haha, I was going to suggest Hinamizawa just for fun. Guess it's too late.

How about the town's an island/peninsula? The theme park is off the coast and actually on top of water.

Name: The city of townville.

What country are we in? I would think that that would affect the choice of name.

@neobowman : we could make that work, i suppose, depends on what people prefer. But while i like the ppg refference, no to the name.

@zzzdragon : Japan, USA... i dunno... how about the UK?

I was referencing something without even knowing? Cool!

I think having it in an American or other western setting will be good since it'll just be easier to imagine the culture and such.

America sounds fine.

Lets see... Lakesville?

Bland but hey, it's not like we're writing a novel or anything. Sounds good.

Well since it seems like we're all agreeing, I'll make the new Signup page tomorrow.

If anybody wants to add something else today would be a good time.

Nope, i don't see any big problems; i guess that the town will grow as the RP goes on. So, let me double-check.

Time: present Location:Lakesville, USA(so is it on a coastline or on plains, in the end?) Setting: standard grail war It is recommended for both master and servant to be controlled by same person, but not a rule. Heroes summoned... from real mythology and legends only?

Is that correct?

Correct.

Though I never expected the bland generic name I made up would actually be the one used...

We can reuse characters from the previous RP, right?

Yes, I don't see a problem with that.

Tho i haven't participated in it, i don't see why not.

*enters*

...

*sees two new pages of sudden activity*

...I'm in.

Can I come rejoin this rp too?

Heck yeah. I'm the best threadamancer, ever

Okay, since we seem to have decided on starting a new Grail War, I have a question about this one. Was there any significance in "Crimson Deam"? Or did it just sound cool?
