[QUOTE="Shadowslayer, post: 2634785, member: 8400"] As mystery Man said, there's nothing really wrong with it. It differs from most fantasy settings in that the initial creation story is science fiction rather than your standard fantsy fare. That stops some guys short. Briefly: Goes into how the planet was created and a little about the system that the planet is part of. How the planet itself (sort of) gained its own sentience and the ability to manipulate the early races....then how these sentients later ordered the races underground when visitors in spaceships came etc etc....you get the idea. The setting is pure fantasy, actually fairly generic fantasy too. But the story of how it got that way is pure science fiction. Its important to remember that the history can come into play or not. It doesn't permeate the setting, not even a little bit. Its just an intro. And it really doesn't affect anything unless you the DM decide to base a storyline around it. Its purely optional. Anyway, some guys don't care for the genre mix. If you hear negative comments about the Wilderlands history, thats probably why. (some guys don't like peanut butter on their chocolate...as Mystery man put it so eloquently.) Personally I think its cool. Trev [/QUOTE]
