[QUOTE="Bitbrain, post: 8606751, member: 6863864"] Well, I’m not ready to throw 101 random facts from my games in one go, so here are the first 10: 1. Halfling is a catch-all term for any intelligent humanoid species of Small size that A) did not originate from the Feywild and B) is not part of the goblinoid genus. 2. Hin are the dominant halfling species of Mystara while Kender are the same for Krynn, Rhul-Thaun for Athas, and Talenta for Eberron. 3. I’ve mentioned this one before, but my version of Eberron’s Zilargo is less a police state and more a nation-wide opium den. The Gnomes of Zilargo are therefore all dreamlily addicts. 4. Eberron is actually an alternate timeline. In the original, the Day of Mourning never happened and the war continued for twenty years. Aundair eventually fired a prototype magic WMD, but the explosion traveled outwards in space and backwardsin time. 5. On Krynn, brass dragons like to disguise themselves within humanoid societies as custom-made clockwork-machines. 6. The Dragon-Armies of Krynn aren’t limited to just the bad guys. There are also good Dragon-Armies. They function more like a UN peacekeeping (and humanitarian relief) task force than a conquering army though. 7. On Athas, the current batch of Sorcerer-Kings are not the same ones that achieved victory in the Cleansing Wars and broke the world millennia ago. Instead, they’re just the latest generation in a long “line” of magocratic tyrants who benefit from the ecological status quo. 8. Each athasian sorcerer-king has two forms: a humanoid form and a draconic monster form. These draconic monster forms are unique to each monarch. 9. Dragons and Elder Brains were created by the gods to serve them in the Dawn War as living artillery/siege weapons and strategists, respectively. 10. Corellon was a primordial, not a god, and was killed by the god Gruumsh during the Dawn War. [/QUOTE]
