[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 8166379, member: 6801845"] We just don't set up McGuffins like can have an impact worldwide, at least not in the short term. Anything that did would be considered impinging on shared territory (which is more than just physical) so we'll discuss and agree. If the event were earth shattering, the other group may hear about it but we'll make sure it doesn't derail the other campaign or take away their agency. I mean, I [I]have[/I] done world-changing events but unlike the Forgotten Realms they're extremely unusual. I guess if it did happen we'd have to have some kind of diverging timeline event and split the universes at that point. We [I]do[/I] have some basic restrictions. Time travel doesn't really work for example, if you could travel back in time it would just create time "branches". Wishes simply aren't powerful enough to change things that aren't fairly local and, again, you can't change time because once the crones weave the tapestry even the gods can't undo it. So yes, PCs can and do have major impact both positive and negative but the ripple effect will take time to spread to other regions. [/QUOTE]
