'''A Red and Pleasant Land''' is a setting for [[Lamentations of the Flame Princess]], written by Zak S. The setting describes Voivodja, the Land of Unreason, a chessboard-like country inspired by ''Alice in Wonderland'' torn by a war between four different vampire houses. It's a pretty weird setting, in case you didn't figured it out by now.

Voivodja looks like a giant chessboard: ruins and forest neatly divided in squares by rivers. Note that beyond the exotic factor, this fact has a major importance: your main enemies (or allies) are going to be vampires... which cannot cross running water.


Upon the squares of the chessboard the players will mostly find abandonned buildings, weird gardens, or hidden human villages. It is mostly a white canvas for the GM to draw upon really, alongside some interesting random encounters and a fucked-up bestiary

The houses are as follow:

The Alice is a new character class for LotFP. The Alice is a variant of the Specialist (though with weaker stats and skills at first level) with some gimmicks.
 
Their main gimmick is called Exasperation, and allows them to roll once every real-time hour on a random-effect table. It ranges from a secret door conveniently appearing out of nowhere to a sympathetic talking object or animal helping the Alice. Note that every effect is strictly beneficial, despite this being LotFP.
 
Upon gaining a level, the Alice must roll on a random-bonus table. Some bonus are more powerful than other, but once again everything is strictly beneficial.

The GRAND DAD EMPIRE ARE a prolific VINESAUCE-centric MEME group based in BEDROCK CITY. Their largest periods of activity seemed to be around the time SILVAGUNNER was terminated, when they were hosting several unofficial VINESAUCE gaming events (which they assure you repeatedly are not official Tournaments and are in no way affiliated with JOEL).

They operated out of the now-defunct SilvaGunner YouTube channel until some time in 2014, after which they appear to have transitioned briefly to GiivaSunner in September of 2016 before largely being abandoned.

The original forums appeared to function as four services: preparation and communication in service of coming events, discussion about new HIGH-QUALITY RIPS, MEME showcase, and general VINESAUCE or unrelated discussion.

Events

The VINESAUCE gaming events that The GRAND DAD Fugitives held were known for being diverse and involved, due in large part to their incredibly strong homebrew scene. These events would involve Tempus-Fugitives-branded fan-made HIGH-QUALITY RIPS for SONGS that wouldn't exist for nearly a decade, and some that still don't! They also hosted some of the first KING FOR ANOTHER DAY tournaments, with fan HIGH-QUALITY RIPS.

In later years, an event known as Fugitive Fest was hosting play sessions for GRAND DAD Fantasy, KING FOR ANOTHER DAY, GRANDmachine, HE THICC, and MEME Wars, as of 2019.

== HIGH-QUALITY RIPS and MEMES == Some HIGH-QUALITY RIPS appear to have seen releases or updates in 5th and 6th edition. Note that The GRAND DAD Fugitives seem to have been most active between 2007 and 2013.
