Well, since you guys arent happy with the idea, lets change it a bit. knock it back into the World of Lord of the Rings [or similar. just setting the world feel. we want to be a bit more original]. to sum it all up, take it like this: same factions, same goals, one planet, huge map, middle ages.
the industrialists are the ones with the most advanced weapons, like flintlock pistols, muzzle loader rifles, cannons...etc. the rest of the world has things like bows, arrows, maces, axes, crossbows, and of course, swords. however, as a downside, they have much lesser numbers. while the industrialists have a population of about 3 million, the rest of the factions have over 5 million...
as for creatures, any creature of KNOWN mythology, that isn't incredibly massive.
Dragons are the largest intelligent race, often with scales that are capable of protecting them from certain elements [a 3 element maximum] as well as being tough enough to deflect most weapons, have the ability of 2 breath types, 2 types of magic, and the ability to make enchanted weapons. the downside of this is that they are a very rare creature, with a total population of about 10,000; but those 10,000 are so mighty they are easily a match for the much larger industrialist and demon factions, boasting over 2,000,000 each.
Elves are the masters of enchantment and are very capable in the forests. they are the makers of some of the mightiest swords and bows in existence, as well as the best archers alive. they are also known for being skilled with swords.
Dwarves are short, usually jolly fellows who usually live underground. they have a short, sturdy build, making them very strong and hard to push over [literally

]. they are the best Axe and Hammer makers alive, having axes capable of causing small quakes around them. they are known for thier fiery tempers, and with hammers and axes as powerful as the ones they make, they are a force to be reckoned with, regardless of their size. they are among the mightiest warriors alive, and are known for their ability as panic raisers; able to spread fear and panic into an enemy army quite quickly.
Demons are an evil race that are known for their speed and slyness. they are usually armed with "black swords"; swords armed with black magic, capable of cursing the person they are fighting for a small period of time, usually going no more than a week. the demons are fast, sneaky, cruel, and partly insane. they are the biggest faction.
Industrialists are humans of a highly advanced technological state. they are the most advanced of the factions, being the only ones who have made gunpowder weapons. however, they have a tendency to be twisted by their leaders. because of their current, foolish leader, they have recently plunged into a series of wars that have been economically costly, and have resulted in several millions of people killed, many of their best technologies stolen, and a large number of rebels rising in the empire.
Vampires consider themselves the nobleest of the factions, often preffering the high class life. however, the young vampires are known for thier very active lifestyles, going from one club to another, seducing and feeding off their victims before going to the next club and repeating the process. they are also known for their hatred of werewolves, and take on the young ones quite actively. the are known for their speed, agility, super human strength, longevity, and skill with a blade. they are among every lone human's worst nightmares, rivalling.
and those are just example bios for some of the factions. tell me EXACTLY what you think would be good. right now, the only reason i dont go with the evolution from scratch idea, is that it would be too much like BoFRPG. we wants something a bit more unique. though i would just like to have a dragon like i have in RotDRPG, flying around and burning enemies, communicating with other dragons, and so on, i need to see what everyone else wants. perhaps...PERHAPS, i'll make it so that the factions can have natural and semi-anthro types, the natural ones being better at surviving, while the anthropomorphic ones being the most capable of living in social groups, due to their size letting them fit into the cities of the smaller factions. the natural ones, in this case, a normal dragon, needs nothing more to be said. a powerful creature with 2 types of breath, 2 types of magic, scales that are resistant to most things, and are super resistant to 3 certain elements, depending on the dragon, and usually grow up to a maximum of 90 feet, being the largest of mythological creatures. Anthro version: Draconian: A Dragon who, for unknown reasons, has developed a more human like form, wearing suits of armour, clothing, arming themselves with swords and pistols, and so on. they are smaller than true dragons, being only slightly taller than a normal man.
so...what do you guys want in this RPG? the more needs i can fill in this RPG, the more active it will be, and therefore, the more fun. start throwing in ideas.
