Gladiators in a great arena escaping after five years of brutal combat, barbaric wandering princes seeking glory through pillage/whatever and simply happen to pillage temples of ancient gods..Magic I generally limit, and try to give it a really fey or demonic feel. And when it does do something.. did it do anything at all? Did I cast a charm spell or is this fellow simply a friendly sort?Some of my players really liked it. Two didn't, liking more of a high (Or extreme) fantasy. Different strokes. Realism - not so much. I try for a gritty, dark feel. It brings out individual heroism, if for a brief and shining moment before the dark settles once again. High fantasy tends to eclipse players from the start - or at least any time I've played in a high fantasy setting the DM is sure to have us feel that way, meaning to or not. (Raise dead? I go to a medium sized city and find an 8th level cleric. Thats not so hard, is it?)</blockquote>
