I'd aim for one of the rural areas in Discworld.
Relatively calm life, as long as you keep the local witch on your side.

Just stay on the good side of the local witch.
I'd have spend a year or two wildin' out in Ankh-Morpork.
I'd go to uberwald
That’s just Twilight with another faction, much higher body count, and way too much Europe
Lord of the Rings, but fuck Gondor... I'll be chilling in the Shire living like fucking king.
Same, but I'd probably go with Bree. I'm a bit tall for the Shire. Also, Bree seems a little more lively and they have a thing called 'pints.'
Live in the Shire, start up a pub called "Giant Beers" which serves pints, be beloved by the Shirefolk and live in pastoral luxury
And fuck as many midgets as your heart desires.
They do pints?? I'm getting one.
Pokemon sounds pretty nice, they even have free healthcare in the american stand-in
Everything goes dark. You open your eyes. You are standing on a bridge. A warm salty breeze is in the air. Birds fly over. A fish splashes in the water. You could go anywhere, do anything, a whole new world is open to you. But you stay put for now and enjoy this peaceful bridge.
A child runs by. She avoids making eye contact and runs behind you. Then another, and another. “Kids these days”, you think, “always in a hurry.” Another child approaches, before he can slip by, you turn, and make eye contact. It’s on!
You each bring out your Pokémon and oh god, oh god, oh god, it’s god. The unfathomable, immortal deity who shaped the entire world, and it is taking orders from a child! and you have… a magikarp.
Before you can even speak, a blast of energy strikes your fish, killing it instantly. You are knocked back, stunned. The child frisks your pockets and takes your wallet. Everything goes dark. You open your eyes. You are standing on a bridge. A warm salty breeze is in the air…
I Have No Meowth, and I Must Scream
Only for pets, not for humans
Ash Ketchum gets bankrupted paying for his mother's hospital bills. The End.
Not something from an anime because by season 4, there's like a dozen people that can destroy a small town with one move. By season 8, they're doing planets.
But at the same time, if you train very hard you'll be able to do that too. That's how it usually goes for characters without magical abilities.
In the Harry Potter universe non magical people live blissfully unaware of magical people and are pretty much left to our own affairs with little to no intervention or malicious actions by the magical, the magical even setup an entire ministry dedicated to maintaining that status quo. It's probably the most boring and unimaginative choice but it sounds like the one in which I could live with the greatest ease and safety.
Hard disagree. Muggles are kept shrouded in ignorance, but they're still fairly routinely terrorized by dark wizards and magical beasts. The Ministry makes an effort, but fails when the going gets tough.
Except for the early 90's in the UK. That wasn't so great.
Earthsea seems pretty chill. Especially Ged.
Roshar. With all the spren and fabrials, I could still have a decent time.
Besides continuous war and blatant racism/classism in every aspect of every society, most of them with either fully blown feudalism and slavery or a untouchable aristocracy :D
Spren are cool though...
PS nice username!
Don't even need magic... just non-brown eyes.
Interesting choice. As much as I love the setting, I couldn't see myself living in a place that has hurricanes on a weekly basis.
Really? I feel like Scadrial is the better choice here. Though I haven’t finished the Lost Metal yet, so something crazy may happen at the end that makes me reconsider this lol.
Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magicka Obscura
I’d get to laugh at every single wizard trying to board a train without it blowing up due to magic fucking up technology before I get screwed over by one of the soulless, greedy, vapid, mouth-breathing creatures known as gnomes.
I cannot understand why there's no modern sequel in the works. A well loved classic RPG with steam punk elements and union themes seems like a no-brainer in the current environment.
Harry Potter. I'd be a normal muggle, blissfully ignorant of all the drama going on :)
So nothing changes?
Not at all! The entire Harry Potter franchise wouldn't exist!
Exactly. That's the entire point lol
But you’d be living in England and probably get stabbed by some chav’s unregistered butter knife
The rest of the world exists in hp, not just the UK.
If you live in the magical world in Harry Potter, wouldn't that make you a squib?
Azeroth, World of Warcraft. Rogues and warriors kick ass, and are still very powerful, even without magic.
Ooo, if you aren't magical when you get there. There is an infinite number of things that will make you. But more importantly I want to live in a place that silly.
Star wars. Apparently anyone can learn to be a ~~magic user~~ jedi if they try hard enough. But even if that isn't an option, spaceships are also fun.
