[QUOTE="TwinBahamut, post: 5825726, member: 32536"] It is certainly an interesting challenge. You have some good ideas for altering the presentation by changing which details are focused upon. Certainly, doing something like creating new cities and areas to flesh out the different nations would be a start. As would introducing new characters or even totally new major organizations. Having a few more potential allies or enemies never hurt a setting. There is also the ever-present option of simply altering core details of the setting in a new book. The basic world, tone, and time period can remain the same, but countless other details can be adjusted for various reasons to provide an alternate version of the setting. They've generally managed to avoid creating the idea that there is canon in the setting (a huge benefit over the Realms, which is mired in it), so any changes made to it could be described as alternatives or options rather than retcons or canonical transformation.
