I wouldn't describe it as a campaign setting though.Its a rule book with a ton of options.I'm not going to include any specific pantheons.Initially I planned to include a chapter dedicated to Persian Mythology with all relevant information: customs; places of worship; gods; monsters; prestige classes; magic; artifacts etc. - specifically to show how I would detail a real world pantheon and to provide people with a wealth of campaign material.But that idea has been divorced from the main body of work. There are no real world pantheons within the Immortals Handbook.However, I have been in communication with people from WotC and Deities & Demigods will become part of the SRD and they have mentioned that they fully expect people to detail the Pantheons they won't be including in Deities & Demigods.So I may release the Persian Pantheon as a standalone product in the future. You know that Deities & Demigods will be heavily Pantheon based (at least half* the 224 pages will be devoted to Pantheons). It has Greyhawk; Greek and Norse Pantheons in it.*I would anticipate two-thirds.I agree. It was going to be a struggle fitting all the information I wanted to include about Persian Mythology into 48 pages. If I did it as a standalone product I would increase that to at least 64 pages.You seem to be slightly confused as to the nature of the Immortal Handbook.It does not detail real world pantheons. There is a pantheon chapter but it covers the subject generically rather than specifically - to facilitate campaigns creating their own pantheons.I had planned to include a Persian Mythology chapter as an example of real world cultures - but this has been divorced from the main body of work; though it may perhaps see the light of day in the near future itself!? For what its worth I also had a handful of other pantheons outlined to be detailed for a follow-up product, though I can't confirm anything on that at the moment. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /></blockquote>
