[QUOTE="Indagare Nogitsune, post: 9647947, member: 40018"] They don't have to be. I was using Mystara's template mostly because we can look at RL cultures and try to figure out how to fit them into a fantasy world, but I think even Mystara used some mixing and matching to come up with some unique things (the Shadow Elves come to mind). So if you want a unique Elven culture unrelated to any on Earth and also native to the world, that's fine. If you want to import a clone of some society from another setting and adjust it for here, that's fine too, so long as it doesn't break the world. Just as a reminder, something akin to the Feywild (First World/Alpha Test) exists, after all, and is 'attached' to the world, so things coming from there eventually would adapt to the Prime to become beings like Elves or Genasi or such. I've also got an idea for a Second World (Beta Test) that has Giants and Dragons where basically everything is minimally four times the size of what it would be on the Prime (Small becomes Large, Medium becomes Huge, etc.).
