Dump your abandoned story ideas here

[EternalSunset0]

Anything you consider 'abandoned'. I mainly made this thread so that these premises wouldn't be forgotten and so that you (as in the person who put the premise) could return it whenever.
Also out of curiosity but that's not important

Well, I first tried fiddling around writing a full story by myself in 2017. In the 2017 version of Fractal Plane (I don't even remember what it's called lol), I tried messing with the idea of pseudo-time travel or super acceleration (ala Accel World). Turns out having the entire world freeze in time while the team goes inside those JRPG dungeons/alternate dimensions followed by them returning to the real world caused a lot of plot holes that accumulated and me writing myself into walls, (with the teleporting as perceived by the ordinary people and all) so I just lost interest and shelved the story until last year.

Spoiler: Good baron

The firstborn of a minor feudal lord of the Russian Empire. It would be a slice of life about an earnest young man working to manage the several villages that he inherited, building an infrastructure and trying to make a profit. No magic or fantasy elements, no modern day references, it would be a historical drama that would go in-depth in the daily life of such a noble without any unrealistic elements.
I was inspired after reading World and Peace by Tolstoy and I very excited to try my hand at this, but I dropped it because the amount of research I would have to do and the limited time I have.

Umm. . . Do you already wrote some of it (outline, plot, chapter, or anything), or its just an idea and basic synopsis? So, if i want to write it, am i just use the idea or there are some pre-establish line and i continued it?

I don't mind continued pre-establish story, but i'm an amateur writer, know nothing about Russian Empire, and never write something using full real/authentic place as setting. So, i need lot of research before starting (2-3 weeks) and the result may not up to your expectation.

But at least, i will deeply consider your advice or wish, because in the end of the day, you started and established the story.

Thank you and best regards.

ps: can i made it the mc isekaid with some knowledge such as farming, mechanical, engineering, etc, from modern earth? I know the idea is old and used, but without knowledge gap i think it would be hard to make the basic impact. I also want to include territorial dispute. Thank you.

This was a project I only got to the point of an idea. I read the novel I mentioned and my tiny plebeian mind wanted to write something off of it. There were a few characters I liked there and I wanted to kind of work deeper in the direction of these kinds of characters. It is more of a general idea I quickly dismissed whence I started to do research into the topics.
If you like the idea, feel free to use as you wish with no restraints on your own creativity

I want to see a hero summoning book done where the MC is from the world that is performing the summoning. I would want it to be a disaster though where they summon hundreds of heroes from all kinds of different worlds, I would then want it to plunge the entire world into war and disarray. I would also make a world with a lot of fantasy tropes like demons, dungeons, and monsters. Have the demon lord get slaughtered and that is when the heroes begin carving up the world for themselves and start trying to fight to become kings.

I really like a dark gritty fantasy...

Mozart and Beethoven among other traditional classical musicians are in a battle royale where they can summon their respective instruments like stands in the JoJo series and uses music like magic to summon attacks/spells/warriors as well as setting up domains and towers. Different music scores are like different summons.
