Goddamn it, why do I suddenly want to run a TaleSpin-type seaplanes-and-islands campaign?

@Soreth 1910 fin de siecle with Edwardian fashion, lady adventurers, pulp plotlines, and a string of islands and archipelagos that are the visible tip of a sunken continent which used to house a technomagic civilization the lasting effects of which have mostly been lost?

@literorrery I... I feel like you have a pre-existing plotline ready to plug in here. :)

For some reason. :)

@Soreth You mean the lost volcano civilization of Kaldera, hidden city of feathered bird-dinos, their weird organic crystal-tech, Russian entrepreneur-cum-intellectual Sloman Cherupok and the ChIONN Institute, squeaky-clean Social Media Intern Travis, and the ARG I was going to run for RF2016?

No, not especially. What makes you think that?

@literorrery I dunno, now it seems pretty silly for me to suggest that there might have been some kind of connection.

@Soreth Yeah, I've got a few ideas I could use here. I did a lot of research into pulp settings for the con. Adventure! would make a pretty good rules set for it, and much of the setting is ready.
