    What if the Roman Empire conquered the Forgotten Realms?

    Diana/Artemis is kind of Xena on steroids. You see this is the Time of Troubles, so the Gods walk Toril. Diana is the huntress. A Roman Xena would look a bit different from what the show depicts.

    What if the Roman Empire conquered the Forgotten Realms?

    Well I was trying to make a real world setting in the Middle Ages a while back and I got in trouble for that on this site. Now Forgotten Realms is not a real world setting, and the Olympian gods aren't real world either, though actual people did believe in them at some time in the past, but...

    What if the Roman Empire conquered the Forgotten Realms?

    They have aspects to the Sun. They have broken up the Sun's portfolio into the effects of sunlight, I'm pretty sure the Romans would not have thought to do this.

    Is it rude to aim at your players obvious weak areas?

    I have an idea, why not let your player play an animal with an intelligence of 1, such as a gorilla? Lets say this gorilla knows who its friends are, and its 1 intelligence means that if it sees other party members attack somebody, he knows to attack that same person as well, and it uses its...

    What if the Roman Empire conquered the Forgotten Realms?

    Really? Romans are quite human, and it doesn't require disfiguring the entire globe of Toril to introduce them. I'll tell you what got me started on this. Just look at the two pantheons above. The Roman Pantheon consist of the following: Roman God -------------------------- Faerunian equivalent...

    What if the Roman Empire conquered the Forgotten Realms?

    Your right there, the Gods of Rome have their Faerunian Counterparts, perhaps it would be helpful to list them and see which gods share the same portfolios.

    What if the Roman Empire conquered the Forgotten Realms?

    I think the Romans could be villains, some of them could be protagonists The whole cohort is led by the Emperor's Son Commodus, when his world gets cut, he become Emperor of the Faerunian Roman Empire, he is sort of a weak leader, he gets manipulated by his advisors a lot, some of whom are the...

    What if the Roman Empire conquered the Forgotten Realms?

    Not necessarily because they work better, but they are better organized as they are members of the same family, so there are family bonds that tie them together, that said each of them have their own agendas, and those agendas will pull them apart as time goes on, but at the beginning they are...

    What if the Roman Empire conquered the Forgotten Realms?

    No they couldn't, and Faerun is a much larger continent that Europe, I don't think the Romans could conquer all of it, the only thing that gives them a chance is the Time of Troubles where the gods are cast down and walk the Earth. I think the Roman Gods instead of being cast down are brought...

    What if the Roman Empire conquered the Forgotten Realms?

    One difference between the Forgotten Realms Pantheon and the Roman one is that the former doesn't really have a leader, it is not organized, each diety has his or her own agenda, Jupiter on the other hand is the leader of the Roman Gods. Ao created the Time of troubles in the first place, some...

    What if the Roman Empire conquered the Forgotten Realms?

    Well I assume the Forgotten Realms gods are at their weakest because of their Time of Troubles, and with the Death of Mystra a gate opens and the Roman Goddess of Magic steps in to take her place that would be Hekate. Hekate moves right in and discovers there's magic here, she takes over the...

    What if the Roman Empire conquered the Forgotten Realms?

    This takes place in a parallel prime material plane, this parallel plane came into being during the Time of Troubles 1358 DR. In this period the Time of Troubles went differently, the goddess Mystra died, and there was no Midnight to take her place, thus initiated a series of spellstorms that...

    The Robots Are Revolting!

    Is it revolting or rebelling? If the Robots are revolting that means they are plain disgusting. (It is one possible meaning of the word "revolting" anyway)

    Here is the Solar System as of the Years 3000 AD to 3050 AD, maybe you might recognize the source of my inspiration: This setting is Tech Level 17 by the way, the Warp Drive was recently invented at the turn of the Millennium, before that these political entities were confined to the Solar...

    World's Largest Dungeon?

    Hard for me to comment on something that is written in a language that I don't understand! I prefer smaller dungeons that I can tailor to my campaign rather than a campaign in a box. Those things can be expensive, I liked the older dungeons where you played it and only rose one or two levels...

    Reciprical Warp Drive for Mongoose Traveller

    I'm basically detailing the entire Solar System using this World and System generation system. https://wiki.rpg.net/index.php/RTT_Worldgen It is different from Standard Traveller as it has different world categories, and a biosphere digit, the Starport is determined after things like...

    Reciprical Warp Drive for Mongoose Traveller

    Correction, I decided to make all the drives the same tech level and make it clear that these Warp Drives can also be used as Maneuver drives when the ship is below the velocity threshold for actually going to warp. These drives take up more volume than the equivalent maneuver drives that do the...

    Reciprical Warp Drive for Mongoose Traveller

    This is an alternate FTL drive for the Traveller game, instead of having a minimum distance required from an planetary body, this drive requires a minimum velocity relative to the most massive star in the system before the drive can be activated. this drive also has a secondary feature, it can...
