World-building questions and answers

Figured I'd make a thread for this to keep it in the public eye.


- There's a teacher at the high school who has a bit of an unsavory reputation, but hasn't been removed from the classroom. Who are they, and why are they still accepted?

- There's a movie house in town that has a secret (non-supernatural, please). What's the name of the place, and what's the secret?
---> The Deja View Cinema, which originally ran as a theater which ran movies previously released months before at a cheaper price. The secret is it houses an illegal underground fighting ring where people can bet on the fights with some even using it as a hub to exchange information of the various happenings going on within the city.

- The school has someone who recently went on to fame and fortune. Who are they, and what brought them their fortune?

- There's that one kid in school who always seems to know where the best parties are. Who are they, and what small crime did they recently get in trouble for?

- A song got banned from play in the school last year. What song was it? (Note that this doesn't have to be a 'real' song, but also remember that it would have to have come out in 2009 or earlier)

- There's a construction site a few blocks away from the school. It's been abandoned for four years. What was supposed to go there, and why isn't it there?
---> A division of an arms manufacturing firm was to be built there, bringing both managerial and factory jobs.  It wasn't built because suspected ties to organized crime were proven and the firm was shut down.
OR
---> It was supposed to be the new economic center of town: the Lineport Fashion Resort was supposed to be a place for people to eat, to watch movies, and to shop. An outdoor mall. That was the plan, and it even got started, when the finances dried up around 2007. With the Great Recession still going on, it doesn't seem like it'll get funding anytime soon. Instead, a partially built monument to economic hope (and the economic crisis) stands there, a good place to make trick skateboard videos. If you bypass the security fencing and "No Trespassing" signs.


- There's been some odd graffiti plastered on buildings around the school of late. What's the weirdest graffiti your character has seen in that area?
---> A tree-like shape made out of a multitude of open-palmed red hands and the words "WE ARE COMING FOR YOU!" on the wall in a nearby parking lot.
