Interesting Settings Part II

[Blue Ghost]

I believe somewhere in the book, possibly under animal encounters, there's mention of the possibility of a "fungus" planet. That is a planet "inhabited" or "populated" solely by fungus life forms (not the B-movie talking kind with spears, just the regular stuff).

Has anybody ever taken their party to a planet like that?

How about the proverbial "dinosaur planet"? If so, what period?

There was a "fungus" planet in one of the Travellers' Digests, back in the day.

Anyone got an issue number for it?

Are you thinking of the planet of Enaaka?

Keith WH Jr (1991) Enaaka. The MegaTraveler Jornal. No.1 pp. 31-41.

Or have a world with no fungi at all.

Obviously, it would have to be a small planet, because there's not mushroom there...

Stainless; I think it's mentioned in the old hardbound edition, but I don't have it handy to reference.

Nobody's done a prehistoric setting?

 

[Maladominus]

I heard that Yuggoth has a lot of Fun Guys.

This would be quite easy to make with the level of biotech the Solomani (and probably the Imperium as well, though they'll be less enthusiastic to do this) have - and probably this could be a hunting-resort planet.

Because we all know how well those work out...

... nevermind about moldy worlds then.

How about primeval, primordial or molten worlds? New worlds, or worlds that are "like new" (to borrow from many a salesman).

Anybody ever take their PCs to an "Integral Trees" like setting?

Groan!

 

[Vargas]

How about the planet that's nothing but shrimp?

 

[Blue Ghost]

You people are killing me

 

[Blue Ghost]

Alright, has anybody ever taken their parties into either Vargr or K'Kree space?

What was it like?

The post Katrina waterworld of NOLA? Been there, ate some..

 

[kafka47]

Vargr worlds? All the time when they were in Marches. What made them so alien even when the visited the same world on a return trip it had radically transformed. K'kree worlds, I have shunned, partially because I find there is not enough information on the K'kree for me to make it realistic enough (I have all that has ever been written officially) and I have not had a steady game group since I acquired Gateway to Destiny. So the K'kree just remain enigmatic NPCs IMTU.

 

[Blue Ghost]

Do you have, or have you looked at, the GURPS Alien Races #2 with the K'Kree description? It's pretty useful stuff.

Anybody else?
