*raises hand* Maybe like a city-world? The whole planet is just one huge city like Coruscant in Star Wars. It can have the lower level slums and the posh upper class skyscrapers. Just a suggestion! :D

How about a dark Victorian kind of thing? A la Jack the Ripper / Jekyll & Hyde / Sherlock Holmes / other gaslight romances and gothic mysteries. I guess this could be rolled into Steampunk, but I think going for a more historical bent might be cool. Lots of opportunities for fiesty ladies challenging historical gender roles, opium dens, you name it!

I keep thinking of good ones right before I fall asleep, and then can't remember them in the morning. But one I do remember is:

1920's/30's Jazz Age - prohibition, speakeasies, charleston, gangsters, flappers, private detectives, women with long slim cigarette holders, men with fedoras...
