Setting

Style

Quasi-realistic, Pulp-style Action. "Mystery-Thriller," not "Investigation."

  • Style: Heroic Realism (ATE2 p. 49)
  • Morality: Heroes Wanted (ATE2 p. 50)

Theme

  • Law v Anarchy; Order v Chaos; Civilization v Wild West; Liberty v Security; etc.
  • Revenge: How far is too far?

Central Tension

Good people trying to survive and thrive on a lawless and wild frontier.

Expectations

  • Shooting. Lots of shooting. Maybe an actual showdown or two.
  • Action/Mystery, not "slice-of-life"; no cattle-drives, etc
  • Expect some long-distance travel segments, but I don't intend to focus on that aspect.

Intended Features

Tropes

  • Reference Language: English
  • Reference Culture: Western
