[QUOTE="DrZombie, post: 1620216, member: 15640"] My evrything-encompassing homebrew is a bit long to fully explain, but I'll be brief : Once upon a time, on a planet far far away, two things happened. -Dwarven alchemists discouvered a strange, magical metal. Very expensive to create, but with strange properties. It could magnify certain spells, especially teleport spells. Using this metal in the hull of a ship, they could make a ship that could teleport to the moons, and explore nearby planets. - Gil-Tar, the fallen Paladin, opened a permanent portall to the abyss. Demons no longer needed summoners, and could enter the planet freely. As the demons conquered nation after nation, a few things happened : the gods, all the gods, got weaker as their followers were massacerd. Since the demons didn't need any summoners, all races were attacked. As the planet was being overrun, a few ships escaped the planet, hoping to reach another civilisation. The demons soon found out how to use the new metal, and they too were able to go after new planets. Good, that's early history, what happened since then : -The gods of various races started to cooperate to survive. Humans, the most adaptable species, serve as mediators. This doesn't mean that an elf can arrive at one of the orc homeworlds and will be totally safe, but it's better then it was. -The different worlds have united, and there is a massive military campaign going on to stop the demonic invasion. This was an early attempt by me to have a fairly consistent reason why different races/cultures could unite together. With this background players can play all races they wanna play, limited by ECL only. Template away with all you like. Depending on starting level, have as many different PrC as you like. If you want me to, I'll explain a bit more, since this is the raw bones, with no flesh at all, but I gotta stop somewhere. [/QUOTE]
