Dude, this is supposed to be a fantasy game.Well, in my game world:
The most corrupt, vile, and despicable people can be found in the highest offices of government, temples, and guilds. You want to see some truly insidious people doing unspeakable things? start your search in the fanciest buildings and look for people wearing the fanciest clothes. Power corrupts, after all.
As far as 4e is concerned, every "alternate prime" is simply a different location within the overall material world. I don't think it ever committed to a specific description of the material world's nature--that is, it didn't have to be a globe or flat or any specific thing. (The benefits of never describing more than one small region and explicitly leaving the rest of the world open for interpretation.)The multiverse is alternate primes. I could have sworn 3.x still had them. Cubic Gates usually/often had one as one of the 6. And I'm pretty sure Manual of the Planes mentions them when it's talking about color pools.
I guess that'd be 4e. Which makes sense since that's when they threw out the Great Wheel Cosmology.
In some fantasy I've read recently, in The House of the Wolfings, the bad guys are from Rome, in The Broken Sword, the bad guys are from the land of the trolls which seems to be somewhere around Skandinavia/Finland, and in Three Hearts and Three Lions, the bad guys are from the lands of chaos which is analogous to northern and eastern Europe in terms of the action of the book.I have a strange desire to do some remixing of what environments are associated with the more or less good guys and bad guys, and then I remembered I am dumb.
so anyway what are the bad-guy themed environments as my mind has decided to betray me once again?
Don't forget, in The Lord of the Rings, evil also lurks in the Old Forest, the Barrow-downs, Moria, Isengard, and the Dead Marshes.I will star with the classic the shire is green fields and pocket Forrest and mordor is an ash-blasted wasteland one is seem as a good place the other the heart of evil.
