[QUOTE="Ceresco, post: 3455269, member: 8585"] [B]A few questions first:[/B] Why are the ogers and PCs in conflict if the ogers live a months travel away? In the technology level you've described most enemies live right next door or are competing with you in trade in other countries. If they are slavers, who else do they enslave? Where do a majority of their slaves come from? Raids or breeding program? Why is their leader a demon? How did that happen? He just waltzed out of Pandemonium and set up shop? How wide spread is the discension against the current leader and why? What is the demarcation between supporters and potential rebels? What is their common diet? It's suprising how much what is eaten can influence a culture. [B]Comments on the elves:[/B] Look at the native peoples of Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philipines or even along the Amazon River for inspiration. They would wear little clothing and have no nudity taboo. They would live in simple huts on stilts, travel by simple flat bottomed canoes and fish for the majority of their diet, with fruits and rice making up the rest. If they are xenophobic, why? What happened to make them this way? What constitutes a crime that one would be sacrificed to a dragon? Are there a lot of these kinds of infractions? Is it due to some superstition or a violation in Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs? Respectfully, Edward Kopp: Arcaniac at Large [/QUOTE]
