References

Behind the Scenes

  • Fictionalized Chicago, IL; some sub-regions will also be re-skinned.
  • Probably set in Illionois, United States, but we should avoid naming or referring directly to the state, country, or their leadership (by name), until/unless it becomes inconvenient (or specifically relevant to the story). The campaign should be focused on the local Knight City area anyway.
  • The above should probably also hold true of other nations outside where feasible.
  • Other major cities will be referenced occasionally by stand-in names (the way DC typically does).
  • "Gotham"-like crime/corruption level ("In a town this bent, who's there to rat to anyway?")
  • Chicago-like history with the mob
