[QUOTE="Mr. Draco, post: 1626804, member: 521"] After the ancient gods abandoned the world, the clerics and paladins etc... began drawing their power from "spirits of the land." These are fey-like beings who are lower on the divine hierarchy than most true gods, but still possessing a level of divinity. These spirits are usually tied to some aspect of the land itself (whether it is a mountain range or river or whatnot), and while they cannot physically travel beyond their landform (they can "manifest" an avatar-like being in other similar areas), they can still grant spells/do other divine things. On the divine hierarchy, they rank below Death, but certainly above any mortals. I like the idea of racing against evil groups for the "last" holy avenger and such. That's definately adopted! As for the Demi-humans, that's a good question. Seeing as how the PCs are only humans and elves, I could have whole races extinct (I'm already ruling that inherently magical beings all died; i.e.- dragons, "outsiders", etc...), and it would certainly provide another aspect to the story, of possibly finding a way to bring now-dead races back to life. I think also alongside the idea of reintroducing magic, there'll probably be a bit of reintroducing religion, as with th absence of magic, most worship probably stopped. Hrm... [/QUOTE]
