City creation in a travelling game

Lets get started with creating our city. We need a high concept, a trouble, some places, and some people. We can choose an existing city or make up our own. I think an existing one would be easier since were not making this in person. How about something on the coast like Boston?

This is also where we can plug in things you want to see, fight, or whatever. For example, were going to have some Fey and vamps from Jason and Joe's characters. Want to see some undead? Fight the Stay-puft man?

I am throwing a Veto at Pittsburg XD Such a crummy city. It's like New Orleans....without any of the culture and tradition XD. New Orleans could be a fun choice though. So could Atlanta, Portland (Maine), or Fort Lauderdale FL.

Crummy cities may not necessarily be a bad thing...

Jim, I'd have to look at the city creation section again but I don't think cities have high concepts. As far as themes, threats, and locations go having each player come up with one of each is usually a good rule of thumb.

High concept, theme... Close enough?

One thing per person sounds good.

That's neither here nor there. Before we do anything else we need to choose a city.

I'll put a vote in for Boston

The vote so far:

New Orleans: 2

After talking to Jason I'm going to change my vote to Nawlins.

Who dat?


N'Awlins.

Just so we're all on the same page, my vote is New Orleans.

I'm in too. New Orleans sounds like a fun place

Cool so it looks like we're playing in New Orleans. Now we move onto phase two of city creation: Themes and Threats. Ill start a new thread for this.
