I'm Planning On Creating A D&D Campaign Based Off Of Steel Ball Run. Any Tips?

I'm planning on creating a D&D campaign based off of Steel Ball Run. Any tips?

If ya don't know, SBR is the 7th part of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. They race across the US, the 23rd president gets involved, etc etc.

I wanna make a campaign based off of that. Heres the ideas I've got so far (part 7 spoilers):

Instead of a prez looking for jesus' corpse, we've got a king looking for magical crystals that grant knowledge. I'm not sure what race he'd be yet.

It's a new country, similar to the US, but mainly desert. Good ol wild west style.

No horses, because I've got no idea how those dudes work in battle. It'll be a foot race with checkmarks.

No idea what the name would be, I was thinking of something like "iron cube race" as a funny parody name.

Any and all suggestions help! Thanks in advance to everyone wo read this far!

Edit/Update:

Thanks to everyone who left suggestions and ideas! I also asked on reddit, and I got a good amount of ideas and help as well.

I've decided to use horses! From all the suggestions and details, it's a good idea to have them.

Any ideas are still welcome!

I'm gonna be completely honest, I'm new here and I've got no idea how this place works

If anyone wants to give tips, please do

Hey! In response to your Iron Cube Race campaign, first of all that’s super cool and good luck! And secondly, if you include horses, the players can make attacks from horseback as they normally would, they do have extra movement based on the horses speed, & they can use their action to charge with the horse and do a hoof/trample attack I believe! Players won’t want to cast spells like thunderclap because that will affect the horse and they could lose control of the mount. They’ll be making lots of animal handling checks and so on. It’s a really cool feature if you choose to include the horses! Have fun!

Disclaimer: I’m not a DM!

Thanks for letting me know how they work!! Many people have told me that horces are a good idea, so I'm definitely going to use them!

Me friend made this, hopefully it helps someone out

New identity just dropped!

Hello everyone! This is Quin, and I believe I've just discovered a new MOGAI identity entirely separate from, but closely linked to, both gender and orientation.

What is it?

Exian

Exian is a term (adjective or noun) for someone who identifies with the term exia, as well as a term for things relating to exianism (the concept of exia).

Exia is separate from yet intrinsically linked to both gender and every kind of orientation. It essentially deals with the relations between different parts and states of our identity and consciousness. These states or identities are known as the 'ecstates,' and there are always at least two. They always include one LGBTQ+ identity along with at least one other ecstate, whether that be an LGBTQ+ identity, an emotion, a name, a color, or something else.

So, what does all this mean? Well, it basically means that an exian will only identify as certain things when in certain situations. For an example with two ecstates, maybe a hypothetical person only identifies as lesbian when they're feeling female, and identifies as straight when they're not. The 'ecstatic triggers' that would cause one to feel female can be anything, which means one does not necessarily have to identify as genderfluid or other similar identities to be exian. For an example with three ecstates, maybe a hypothetical person only feels nonbinary when they're feeling sad and the curtains in the room are red. This is very specific, and all three conditions must be met or they don't feel nonbinary. If all the conditions are right, they should predictably feel nonbinary.

A defining trait of exianism is that it always goes both ways; if you feel sad when you're gay, then you always feel gay when you're sad. This is part of what separates exians from enans (people who are not exians), along with the requirement that one of the ecstates must be a LGBTQ+ identity.

Here is the exian flag. From top to bottom the stripes are:

Green

Represents the interconnected qualities of nature.

White

Represents neutrality and fluidity; not feeling like any particular ecstate or feeling between them.

Violet-red

Represents unity and love for the community.

Black

Represents feeling like more than two ecstates at once; also represents disconnection from other LGBTQ+ identities.

Other interpretations of the flag are welcome, however!

Hopefully I explained this right lol-

Remember to stay hydrated and have a great day!
