[QUOTE="Scribble, post: 4453376, member: 23977"] If you want to atribute it to laziness, that's your choice, but I personally don;t think that's what's happening at all. White Wolf has had a similar style for a long time, and it never fails to excite me. They throw something out there, and it's not the things they say that really grab me, but the things they don't say. In the Scarred Lands I remember reading a little blurb about the "ancients" it was just a smal blurb about some stone pillars with weird markings on them, but it got my mind racing thinkuing about what they were or who the ancients were. Inspired my whole scarred lands campaign. Shrug. if it's not your style that sucks. I personally love it, and I think it feels more like the grey box to me. Apparently people are questioning how and why... so it seems like it does work to me! There's a million BS reasons one god can become another god. (to butcher a line from Scream...) All the Dm has to do is pick one to base his adventures around. If they gave me an "official" reason I'd think either "That's a neat story" and that would be it, or "Thats silly." and that would be it. Now I can make my own reason and think- "That's perfect." It wasn't? Then what's it matter? [/QUOTE]
