One of my main goals with Interpol X is to really dive into places all around the world and try to create an atmosphere for the players and audience to feel like they're there. I have lots of ideas for stories, but I would love to hear requests from the audience (and players if they want) about places around the world you'd like to see.
Have a favorite spot on another continent?
Did you have an amazing time in a strange city?
Did you hear about something that fascinated you about a place you traveled?
Tell me where you think the Interpol X response team should go! Bonus points if you can link an awesome article or slideshow that really helps me learn about it. Or a citation for a National Geographic article is even better! (My original concept for the game was to base each adventure off a NatGeo article and use the locations and people in it as the basis for the mystery.) Or PM me with stories of your own travels somewhere exciting.

I've never been to the Market in Morocco, but it always looks cool on tv. All those stalls, and food carts, and textiles, and spices, and produce, and live animals, and coppersmiths, and everything else under the sun and stars.

I've always been super interested in asian mythology. Specifically Japanese. Like the yuki-onna, orochi, kitsune, tengu, etc.

Diwali is happening soon (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diwali). India has banned fireworks for the festival this year which kinda defeats the purpose of it being a "festival of lights". What happens when Lakshmi isn't properly venerated because of modern traditions?

Man, there's a bunch of cool stuff in Canada. It derives from all sorts of traditions too. Quebec City would be awesome (only walled city in north america!) and so would some of the native mythology in the west.

As the Netherworld is concerned, how about picturesque Iceland and the Dimmu Borgir!

How about the eerie abandoned amusementpark Spree Park in Berlin. (With disembodied children's laughter and cthonic clowns a'plenty!)

Iceland is indeed a great destination. On top of having such austere countryside, they still genuinely believe in Elves

I think London, that way the fey can talk to the head of her half brother Bran under the tower of London, there are also many other interesting sites of arcane significance, but that one would be quite appropriate
