[QUOTE="Dungeonosophy, post: 6356867, member: 6688049"] [b]one-off mini-settings[/b] The D&D Gazetteer might as well include these places too, since they exist somewhere in the D&D Multiverse. The Desert of Desolation exists in three D&D worlds. [LIST] [*]Ghyr (the tie-in setting of the AD&D Action Figures) The map of Ghyr is attached to the end of the previous post. [*]Karawenn (the setting of the First Quest novels for AD&D2e) [*]Desert of Desolation (exists in Faerun and Nerath and Mystara--the Ylaruam gazetteer suggested its placement there.) [*]Land of Arir (an Arabian-style one-off locale from 1e [I]Day of Al'Akbar[/I]) [*]Kolhapur (an Asian Indian-style one-off locale from 2e [I]Star of Kolhapur[/I]) [*]The Dream Lands of Smslyvch (from the Hebrew BECMI adventures) [*]City of Manifest (Ghostwalk) [*]The world of the D&D Endless Quest gamebooks. [*]The world of Dragon Strike, those VCR-based D&D games. It has its own crystal sphere. [*]The Empire of Izmer, the setting for the first two D&D movies, such as they are. Arneson (who did promotional work for the film) says ([URL="http://blackmoor.mystara.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=863"]here[/URL]) that in his home campaign, Izmer is located in the same world of Blackmoor(!) [*](The third film, the direct-to-DVD Book of Vile Darkness, is, according to [URL="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1733125/plotsummary?ref_=tt_ov_pl"]this blurb[/URL], set in the Kingdoms of Karkoth in the D&D World of Nerath.) [*]A world composed of all the generic DUNGEON magazine adventure locales. [/LIST] The D&D gazetteer could also officially place all of the generic adventures which have ever been published. Perhaps there could be a placement in nearly every published world (except for worlds whose themes don't match with those adventures, such as Dark Sun). This would of course only be relevant to the "WotC timeline" of the D&D Multiverse. Every DM might have an different placement. This would make the baseline Multiverse coherent and comprehensive, while recognizing that each DM's Multiverse is an alternate parallel Multiverse. [/QUOTE]
