Guild run, metro fantasy
#1Setting: Thief-like. Large city as center of map, surrounded by uncontrolled countryside
3:17 am: Feyblood is bad, thus "pure" mages are crazy muthers
3:17 am: apt to flip out and spazerate an entire 'hood
3:18 am: but after that first 'pure' generation, they lose almost all magical ability, but retain the long life
3:18 am: and physical prowess of their forefathers
3:18 am: 2nd-4th generation are stronger, faster than normals
3:19 am: bred to be killing machines by the Guilds
3:20 am: 5ish guilds
3:20 am: each specializing in specific types of heroes
3:21 am: Archer, Fighter, Berserker, Assassin, Healer/Entertainer
3:21 am: H/E renamed Support
3:21 am: Archer +D -C
3:21 am: F +S -I -C

3:22 am: A +D -C -S
3:23 am: S no physical change
3:26 am: Killing Machines are Hunters
3:26 am: Hunters are bred from birth to keep society safe, from itself and from the monsters that plauge the city
3:28 am: The Guilds recieve a payment from the Nobles for every monster they kill, and for guarding their manors
3:28 am: Also the guild frequently dispatch Hunters to target other guilds, and rouge Hunters from their own guild

3:29 am: Hunting down fugitives, dispelling riots, ect
3:35 am: Guilds are like Cyberpunk corps
3:35 am: PCs could be incorp Hunters or rouges
3:36 am: rouges would have to worry bout Hunters
3:36 am: have worse equipment
3:36 am: and would quite likely work for more shady sorts
3:36 am: Guilds, in addition to the slight mutations accompanied with feyblood
3:37 am: will quite likely tattoo/brand the Hunters in easy to notice locations
3:37 am: and add grafts and stuff to make them more effective
3:39 am: All are scarred from their abusive childhood
3:40 am: though some of the Hunters are noticably free of any of this
3:40 am: no lash marks across their face and arms, no Guild brand on their neck
3:41 am: these ones serve theri duties as infiltrators
3:41 am: engraining themselves into another Guilds workings, giving the Guild's knowledge back to their owners
Must sleep on this. Maybe even come back later?
