Ok, you guys: how about this?
It is the Year of Our Lord Fourteen Hundred and Ninety-Two. Looking out upon the great sea, many nations have their eyes set on a new route to China and India. The cursed Venetians control all trade agreements with the blasted Ottomans, and so an alternative route must be found. Who are you, and what do you seek?
That's right, you are all explorers! Here's the breakdown: I will be handling the actions of any natives you find in the new world, as well as the actions of European monarchs, and anyone else you run into on the west coast. Here's a player profile:
