[QUOTE="NMcCoy, post: 4991011, member: 61546"] Maybe in your games. :p I dunno, a race of people that have [I]spiked chains[/I] as their traditional weaponry and bats that [I]fly through you while on fire[/I] seem pretty badass to me. And there is unquestionably some LttP-style fun to be had with portals between the worlds and parallel echoes of geography and structures. Sending my level 3 party to stop a supernatural blizzard in the Feywild that had frozen a mortal world village's well in the middle of summer was great fun for all, and being able to draw on classic fantasy tropes as idea fuel (a circle of standing stones that acted as the gateway during a full moon, and having three weeks pass during their 1-day stay in the Feywild - well before Manual of the Planes suggested some very similar ideas) made the whole adventure really come together. Of course, the source of the blizzard being the Eladrin Medallion of Winter (that they can now use to execute a devastating ice attack once per day) is pure Zelda. ;) [/QUOTE]
