The world was shattered. It was split into hexagonal 'tiles', which were separated by a kaleidoscopic membrane that could be walked through but not seen through.
Occasionally, a 'shuffle' would take place, randomly scattering the tiles about, effectively randomising the neighbours of any given tile.
And those were just the obvious changes.
Magic seeped into the land, crystallising in the depths in the form of gems, but also reaching into fruits and plants, imbuing them with energy that would go to those who consumed them.
Beyond that, it transformed many, human, animal, plant, or even stone, giving forms somewhat similar to humans and sapience to those who lacked them, and immense resilience to everyone affected.
Their resilience was so great, in fact, that the only true way of subduing them was to make them sexually submit to you.
It is a world of danger and predation, as each of these creatures hunts the others in a quest to take what power they have attained, and grow to ever greater heights.
It is at the beginning of this strange world that your journey begins as you wake up, noting nothing except for a strange stone the size of a grapefruit next to you. There are strange, mesmerising and seemingly shifting patterns carved and inlaid into it, and you have a strange feeling, even beyond it's ornateness, that it is crucial to your purpose here.
Greetings!
This is a fantasy RP about rebuilding some semblance of order in a scattered world. You achieve this by making use of the strange stone you discovered, which can break the membranes between tiles, tying them together and preventing them from being disconnected during a shuffle.
The world can either be fantastical, with each tile hiding new strange landscapes, or a post apocalyptic version of our own world.
It will also grant you all sorts of other powerful abilities, but all of those require you to spend the magic now permeating the land.
You can acquire it by consuming things containing it, such as gemstones or magical fruits, or by defeating those who posses some.
And, beyond using it with the stone, you can also covert the magic into personal power once you attain enough.
This also spends it, so you will need to carefully balance the awesome effects of the strange stone with your own growth.
You will also presumably, as you break membranes and grow your territory, attain followers who will join you and fight in your stead if you were to wish it.
As you progress, you will find that there are many ways to interact with the world. You can build it up, slowly building an empire that is much stronger than what is common, but radiates strength outward that will attract strong foes, or ravaging everything not claimed for yourself and making yourself an unassailable ruler (and hopefully defender) for any who choose to follow you.
Another thing worth noting is that I will be using some form of system for the RP. This can go from as simple as having a number of health and each enemy having 5 values of strength between which you will pick randomly (allowing us to avoid any external sources of randomness and requiring minimal thought on your part), to more complex systems requiring no external sources of chance, to rolling dice and considering statblocks and abilities, or even outright playing poker to decide the winner of a battle.
