Age of the Dead
This thread is a starting point for a system I am currently working on. Which, hopefully will morph into a new game. It is a mash up of two of my favorite system's mechanics which will hopefully blend into a seamless mix of awesome and epic win. Imagine if you will the realism and adaptability of the NWoD system mixed with the character customization (advantages, disadvantages, and that type stuff) of the L5R system. All mixed with the supernatural and a whole new world of awesomness and magic. Feedback will be appreciated as will help in fleshing out my ideas.

Here, you hold this jar of acid and the rattlesnake. I've got to hop on the unicycle and get this chainsaw revved up.

Magic Slang
Arcanist - broad term for a mage

Weaver - A mage who is devoted to creating magic infused items, From a plow able to make the work go twice as fast for a poor farmer to a Legendary weapon for a hero of great renown. They delight in the act of creation often asking little more than thanks for their crafts.

Warped - A "catch-all" catagory for any mage that has become twisted with evil.

Re: Age of the Dead
Places of note (Part 1 of alot)
Jade City - Founded right after the first humans ventured out of their caves and holes. This is the first and largest of all the post fall settlements. It's population numbering at about 10,000 with 5,000 serving as active members of the city's militia. It has become a mecca for wanderering warriors and people wishing to learn of times before the fall.
The leader is a man known only by the name "Crow" cloaked in mystery and possessing of great power and knowledge. No one knows what he did before he founded the city. He is surrounded by a group of twelve Liutenants Who seem to have a deep connection to their leader.
