[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 7402112, member: 6802378"] Before of Tolkien was Conan by Robert E. Howard, and his world had a lot of different kingdoms and cultures. Videogames of martial arts are full of characters with national stereotypes. * I remember there were some complains about "Gipsies" and "Kindred of the East" by White Wolf, but I don't know very much, what really happened? * I don't like when they use a "too positive" stereotype to be politically correct. Khamala Kan, from Marvel Comis, alias "Miss Marvel" can be an angel like character, but I am angry because marvel comics never will use her to talk about Asia Bibi, a Pakistani woman from the real life. Other stereotypes I hate are the religious zealot and the anti-system rebel. When you find them, you can bet the work wants to be more annoying propaganda. * Now we are in the age of internet, and now lot of fans from other continents can publish and shared their own worlds inspired in their own cultures. * Is political correct to can use Indian pantheon for a fantasy worlds? Hinduism is a real religions with millions of followers. And what if I want to use a fantasy setting to report the system of the castes from Hinduism? [/QUOTE]
