[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 8972975, member: 6802378"] How could we explain it better with an example? In the movie Mission Impossible II there is a scene where different traditional Spanish festivals are mixed in a bizarre mash-up. I don't feel offended at all, but ashamed for other, like if you listen the mistakes by other classmate in a geography test. Or let's imagine an Europea publisher creating a steampunk far wester setting, and Northamerica is New York, California, Texas and Canada... If there differences between the diverse states of Northamerica, or between Scotland and Walles in the British islands, also there are differences between Chinese regions. This is the type of mistakes we should avoid. If you haven't realised yet, there is a loophole to allow new worlds by 3PPs in DMGuild. The key is these being introduced as "wildspaces" within Spelljammer setting. And DMGuild allows 3PPs to publish crunch about PC species, subclasses monsters or magic item. Now the "soft power" by Japanese is stronger than Korean or Chinese. There are 3PPs who have published for 5Ed based in Anime. [URL unfurl="true"]http://www.dyskami.ca/anime5e.html[/URL] [URL unfurl="true"]http://www.samuraisheepdog.com/play-manga-5e.html[/URL] I suspect WotC would rather to create new PC species to be used in all the settings and worlds, not to be exclusive (and with their own name to be protected by trademark/copyright), and whose names aren't too linked with certain cultures. This means the shen will be only "spirit-folk", because shen is a Chinese word and this may be not wellcome by Korean and Japanese players. Or theses in their homebred settings use the "shens" and "lungs" (= "imperial" dragons) like the "evil empire". And Chinese players in settings where the evil empire are the oni. There are lots of fantasy franchises from manga/manghua/manghwa and videogames could be relatively easy to be adapted into D&D settings. We have also the option of a new setting with a Western look, maybe with some touch of Russian culture, and adding other touchs from jianghu/xianhian and chanbara/jidai-geki genres.
