The baseline could be set up in a thread like this, sort of like that world building thread, 'Tales from Lan ... ' whatever it was.
Yeah, Leinyere. I mentioned that above.
@Nouh_Bdee runs that. He did A LOT of legwork and "sales" to achieve buy-in from people who continue to love it, and part of the reason why is because Leinyere is almost limitless. Before he started, he constructed a map, invented a mythology, and then crowdsourced the rest. We worked on it for some months before writing anything, and it continues to be a work in progress.
You'd need to do all that legwork. And even then, I tend to agree with Keith: though there are tropes that would expand this beyond a mall setting, it would feel very constrained to me as a writer. Just my $.02 from having set stories in malls before.
