[Xantalos]

As the void spins through infinite possibilities, a myriad of worlds and things can be seen.
Alternate realities. Alternate yous.
It's all down to chance, really. Chance determines all things - what you do, what happens to you, where you are, if you even exist.

Chance has decided to give you a rare privelige, you of unknown origin. It allows you to choose your own road.
Choose.

What is the (initial) setting?

[Harry Baldman]

An endless beach stretching infinitely in two directions with objects of interest - marinas, rocks, bars, hotels, boardwalks and similar things scattered haphazardly near it. Beyond that lies a wide, strip of perilous jungle full of treasure and ancient ruins. Beyond the width of jungle there are hills that transition into passable mountains that soon become infinitely tall and impossible to traverse. All are infinite in length, but finite in width. The only bit of uncertainty is the sea, which very few can explore without going mad.

It is known as the One Corner of the World among its residents, who are definitely a strange bunch.

I like it.

Setting!? I'll give you a setting!

There is a world with a similar history to ours. Though there are a few things that set it a part from ours. It is now in the distant future where a world-wide war between two kinds of people. A war between Humans and their creations known as Drakens, beings with human and dragon DNA fused together. The world maybe destroyed and dying, but war is still very alive.

Though there is hope. There is one large group of a few hundred people who's ultimate is to end the age old hate and find a chance for the world to continue living. By force if need be. They are made up of both Drakens and Humans. The setting is there, where they set up camp nearby a human city.

A remnote jungle, remote because, as far as anyone can tell, it's the only thing that exists, the jungle bountiful and expands both infinitley and not at all in all directons, their are several abandoned treehouse houses, and a starnge temple in the slap middle fo the jungle, legend says that it's the only thing that can create something other than the jungle.

The world is three rings linked together, with glowing moons orbiting them to make night and day. Each ring is different:

Alfo is a rocky ring, with many mountains, rocky wastelands where it's flat, and shallow seas. The inhabitants are dwarves, who live in converted sea caves or mighty fortresses in groups not larger than one or two hundred, living on fish and seabirds.
Bita is a frigid ring, with terrain varying from glaciers to taiga to the occasional peak poking above the sheets of ice around it. Bita is inhabited by orcs, who are divided into the Farmer Tribes (who farm various types of shrubs and lichens) and the Hunter Tribes (who mainly subsist on hunting and raiding, with gathering on the side).
Celta is a lush ring, with high ocean levels, foggy lowlands, and jungles wherever the soil supports it. Its inhabitants are elves, who are unified under a single Ancient Queen and a High Council of Druids. The elves are sedentary and live mainly by magic and hunter/gathering.

Amongst the moons and distant stars lurk strange craft piloted by the gom, known in our tongue as the Nomads or gnomes. Gnomes are similar to insectile humanoids with two arms, two legs, and four tentacles in between. They have no central government or even many unifying cultural traits. Gnomes taught the secrets of making these craft to the other three races, allowing travel between the rings. This happened barely a decade ago; contact between the four races on a regular basis is still a new phenomenon.

The world is a perfectly smooth metal sphere on which everything has yet to happen.

[Greenstarfanatic]

The world is condensed down into a large dome-like building, floating aimlessly at the crossroads of time and space. However, it is much more than that.
It is the Bus Stop of Space-Time, the crossroads at which every universe traveller must pass through. One must simply buy a ticket, and they can be off to any place, or any time. Many a man has gotten lost in the twists and turns of the convoluted passageways that litter the hub. Maybe the heroes of our story won't be as unlucky, hm?

((This way, all of the other worlds CAN be possible!))

[Dermonster]

It is an endless void filled with small floating planetoids made of a single material, whether it be soil, iron, light or flesh.

[superBlast]

((Can I have two suggestions? I just dreamt up another one that sounds like it'd be interesting.))

[GreatWyrmGold]

I'd be interested to see it.

[Xantalos]

((Can I have two suggestions? I just dreamt up another one that sounds like it'd be interesting.))

Yeah, feel free. I'll try to choose one tonight, though keep in mind you might still be able to visit your other suggested settings - this is a minimalist, after all.

[superBlast]

Alrighty then!

There is a floating continent far above the world of mortals called Emotion. To the north lies the Temple of Joy. The south holds the Temple of Fear. East and west holds the Temple of Gloom and the Temple of Anger. At it's center lies Emotion's biggest city called Courage. Where the Archangel has summoned the mortals' strongest people to fight against a threat that is overtaking the land of Emotion and throwing the world of mortals into chaos. It goes simply by the name of Corruption. It is slowly killing the gods that live in the temples and causing them to go mad. The result of that is causing almost all the mortals' emotions to go out of control.

Courage is the last known place to be untouched by the Corruption, but that soon won't last for much longer....

((Now their is a lot more details I have but this should do for an initial setting. Also I'm not sure what is going to happen after a setting is picked lol.))

Ah, this looks interesting. A plane of isolation, of sorts. No time has passed here since the beginning; or has there been one? It is difficult to tell here.
The ultimate scientist's playground. Entire planets comprised entirely of one substance, pure, unaltered. One could mix them in any sort of way, if they liked. Of course, that is the problem. That's all there is. Just an infinite number of planets composed of infinite materials, and the void.
Quite boring, really. Why don't we fix that?

Somewhere in empty space, an anomaly occurs. Where once there was nothing there is now potantial. Endless potential, to be used for destruction, creation, or whatever the bearer sees fit to do with it. Only ...
Who are the bearers?
