This is just sort of a random plot idea, but the concept here is a setting / plot / quest where the player works at a restaurant that primarily serves monsters as clients. I find it kind of fun... the idea that a weak player character is in a monster country cooking food for them. And I'm really fond of those alternative spins where the "bad" monsters aren't always as bad as they seem. Would anyone be extremely bothered if I introduced an orc/demon-lord region where... the orc's are the good guys?  |

I love the idea actually! Maybe when I get to the Mainland I could get Lyndis to find a lower-ranked area that's similar to that, because I'm not sure what kind of region I want to introduce to the Mainland yet! Maybe I could tie it into that Kingdom I mentioned briefly in a quest report before~
Something along the lines of the 'Kingdom of Nostros has been at war with the Mountain of Monsters/Forest of Beasts(something like that lol) but only because the Nostros are snobbish folk who are intruding on the monsters' land and trying to turn the monsters extinct because they 'look awful' and are 'abominations to be slain!''
Haha, just an idea I might pursue lol~

Alrightie, I've thought a tiny bit more about an idea, so here's a short pitch!
So the Kingdom of Nostros (to the North) is a land of humans who apparently don't like other species. Their country is on the border of monster country, and they see it as their natural right to subjugate monsters so humans can settle in all that land (manifest destiny!). As a consequence, the Kingdom posts hefty bounties for the killing of almost any kind of monster (benign or not), so it's effectively a monster-slayer type setting where you can be paid for killing almost any kind of monster.
A proposed plot development is that the Kingdom of Nostros learns of Otherworlders (who are apparently good at killing stuff), and decides that it is worthwhile to employ a guild that is completely dedicated to slaying monsters... with tons of kill quests... that pays good money.
Meanwhile... on the "monster" side... suppose they aren't really totally evil or anything. In fact, the adjacent monster region would be open to adventurers who want to pursue a more peaceful relationship blah blah. There would be plenty of room for character angst as they try to grapple with how monsters are hunted... and they can choose for themselves how they want to move forward.
Basically it's a factional plot with further room for expansion ^^
