The Demiplane of Dramore

Dramore Traits
- Normal Gravity.
- Normal Time.
- Finite Size. Its about 900 miles on one side and 1,200 miles on the other like a big rectangle. It has Soft edges.
- Alterable Morphic.
- No Elemental or Energy Traits.
- Mildly Neutral-Aligned
- Normal Magic. Even magic from the plain of shadow and all the other Transitive Planes.

This Demiplane is placed in the forgotten realms on the borders of the regions of Rashemen, Thay, and the Hordelands. Its fogy presence is hard to find for it is only a mile across. Those that have gone there from Faerun and have comeback have described something that no one in faerun wants to believe. On the month of Eleasis the inhabits of dramore have begun to start to adventure out to see and learn all about fearun.

I'm always disappointed when you can't play a character from the Core books. Is that to say that if you are form outside the demiplane and a Wizard that you can't enter it? If so, I'd not want to play. But that's just me.

I do not like OA, so my post won't bring anything constructive to the thread (not because I do not like oriental campaigns, but because as I only DM and do not play much anymore, I can't set the right mood for this kind of campaign... but how much did I love to play L5R :eek: )

Shouldn't this be in the Plots & Places forums?

OK, now this is out of the way, here's what I think about it...
- If I'm not mistaking in my calculations, the size of the demiplane is 900*1200=1.080.000 sq miles. It is thus approximately only 3.5 times smaller than the USA. That's quite huge for a demiplane situated in the middle of a material plane. Did you think about how it was created?
- You say that magic is normal inside it, but how does for example the magic given by Shar (don't remember the name right now) function in it?

Except that, nothing else to say since it is too specific to OA for me...
