[QUOTE="Jfdlsjfd, post: 8490429, member: 42856"] Is there a reason this mix of population is considered a "good" thing [I]in play[/I]? Last time I was in rural Japan, I didn't remember seeing many Europeans, but I wasn't shocked. And the only reason I could be there was because modern jets and trains make that possible (and the reverse is true, rural France has very few Okinawans to be seen). I wouldn't have gone there, probably, if the only means of transportation had been ships and horses, not because the locals would have thrown stones at me but simply because large melting pots are usually the product of things not available to pseudo-medieval societies. Is this just because Melting Pot = Sounds like a country known for its melting pot cities that I won't name it because it would certainly be against real world politics rules = Good? I can see a concern to avoid locking a player into "hey, you're the first human we've ever seen, why are your ears not pointy?!? Should we throw rock at this strange demon-eared creature?" but I don't think GMs would be heavy-handed like that outside the "horror GM" thread... [/QUOTE]
