But you can't drag the hose into that underground cave you found, so now you're running on your air tanks and the clock is ticking... And of course if you get into a fight in the open spaces intelligent undersea opponents will probably go for the air supply first so they have the option of pinning you down and watching you die....BubbaDavehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00519187954489964023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2556965477270279581.post-73738149948998322932018-09-29T04:26:31.707-07:002018-09-29T04:26:31.707-07:00I'm thinking probably 18th-19th century ish, b...I'm thinking probably 18th-19th century ish, but not too tech specific.<br />Also I'm looking at the whale-belly-dungeon and like what I'm seeing.

The Little Mermaid meets John Carter of Mars.

Blue Planet actually was the one I started with, I think. Seriously nature documentaries are like the best thing for creativity, and also they just make you feel good about the world. Some of the underwater places in my Phantasmos setting were inspired by this and other of his series, and I'm working on a thing heavily inspired by the concept of coral that I haven't shared yet but was also based on stuff from these documentaries. I'd love to do an underwater adventure using whatever you come up with for this!maxcan7https://www.blogger.com/profile/12504030224075149157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2556965477270279581.post-40327606197267721342018-09-27T13:19:14.588-07:002018-09-27T13:19:14.588-07:00I mean you could put them on land but then that...I mean you could put them on land but then that's an extra layer of complication added onto what is already /quite weird/.<br />Like my point is that the deep ocean is bonkers enough that its a fertile adventure site without any real alteration - the challenges of getting there and visibility and so on only add to the sense of oddness.<br />That said, Veins is pretty good inspiration here.<br /><br />Also I can't think of any OSR products that are 100% underwater, and that's a niche I can fill and stuff :D<br />(also most of the games I run already have a bunch of this stuff on land because I think it's cool).Cavegirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03853637517886592288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2556965477270279581.post-41331830282176717222018-09-27T07:46:36.709-07:002018-09-27T07:46:36.709-07:00What if you just took a lot of the aesthetic princ...What if you just took a lot of the aesthetic principle of the deep sea, the environs, the animals, and geographic features and just placed them on land? So, like VotE, most creatures don't have eyes, but if you have light or produce it- you have an advantage.<br /><br />Because the things that are most exciting about the deep is not the water all around or figuring out oxygen. Even if you make a mechanic for it, its about as exciting as "rations" or "water".Warren D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05634722785917786420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2556965477270279581.post-90203105964425997752018-09-26T23:05:06.778-07:002018-09-26T23:05:06.778-07:00This sounds awesome!

I even have "bio-luminescent sea creatures" postage stamps!
