Message: <blockquote data-quote="LuisCarlos17f" data-source="post: 9743353" data-attributes="member: 6802378">It is understandable that authors express their own views in their works, but compared to others, I do not feel that I have spent my money to suffer propaganda that tries to make me feel guilty if my own opinion differs from that of the author. Maybe D&D isn't 100% ideologically neutral but comparing with other publishers it is enoughly neutral for me. Some time in the past I explained the reason because I disliked certain trope used in Ravenloft or other franchises, but I hope to have said my reason in a polite and asertive way. * Maybe Athas needs some retcon about the geography. Even if the region of Tyr is very rich in details it is too small to be a sandbox. The other continents should show something interesting to be explored, and enough possibilities for survival for the explorer PCs.* Writting and reading shouldn't be forbiden for the masses. Only we need a "legal alphabet" for common languange and a "secret languange" for the members of noble houses and high society. Some times we could need some banner saying "don't enter this zone" or like this.I have got other idea: After the death of Borys "stars from the sky" begin to fall into different points of Athas. Really these aren't ordinary meteors "exiled quasigods". Something thought Athas could be used like a "nuclear waste repository". Soon the most of these "divine exiled" beging a battle royal to "steal" the divine spark of the defeated enemies. In the end the "winner" of this battle royal is killed by other divine exiled who would rather cooperate and survival. These no-combatants agreed a special way to distribute the power of the divine sparks. Those with enough wisdow, even mere mortars, could be blessed with the blessing of the divine spark. If there were disciplined and good managers then the gifts of the blessing would be more powerful. (Do you remember the bloodlines and regencies from Birthright setting?). These gifts would be more focused into help the community than to be used in the battlefield: healing, creating water, purifing food, to undo the damage by the defiling magic... Of course somebody would think these gifts should be totally controlled by the "state"(sorcerer-kings).</blockquote>
